Help Andoids Seeing Hidden SSIDs

Don't know if they're supposed to be hidden or not, but my Android phones shows some SSIDs that Macs and PCs don't show.

Specifically the "CU..." SSIDs, as shown in my screen-shot. Their passwords are unknown, so I don't think anyone will be trying to connect to them. This is on our school campus, that has a mesh WiFi network.The open "JNWGYXX.." ones are what we usually connect to here, and the SSIDs are the name of the school. So there shouldn't be be any confusion here.

Heres what they told me about there zte blade A31lite. I think the standard A31 and A31 PLUS 6" phone has t-mobile compatible on the ebay link pics but is as big as my g power 2021. Read the ebay message i received from them about the A31 lite international model. May have been on amazon reviews. I was looking for a smaller zte phone similar to my quest 5. The A31Lite was the next option zte told me unfortunately they didnt sell them outright and i think said that the phone may be compatible.

Tho this seller lists as tmobile compatible 1gb 32gb zte blade a31 lite international model.

Ransomware

Oh I run Windows 11 too on two systems (another runs Vista, and one runs XP) but I prefer the UI of Vista and XP over anything 'modern' but I credit Windows 11 for at least attempting to reboot skeuomorphic UI. Still about as half done as Windows 10 though. Stops at icons.

I longingly await the death of flat UI design.

I'd steer clear of MalwareBytes though. That Crapp has caused the PC at work to run like an i486. It chews through RAM, makes it freeze every 8 hours, and has somehow redirected Google searches to some foreign clone (results are quite hilarious though).

I'm convinced it's either malware or owned by Cheetah Mobile with how it affected the system. If it's not doing the above it's slowing the system down popping up endless things about updates. I hate it. I turned it off three times but stupid boss keeps re-enabling it. I never heard of it until I saw it in action, but I'd rather stick with tried and true Norton or McAfee.

Resetting phone, unlocking?

.....
However when setting up i skipped the setup and never signed into my google account on either phone.
......

Unless you've gone through the process of loading a custom, third-party ROM on an Android phone, the first time you start it up the setup process requires you to enter a valid Gmail address and password. It's not something that you can just ignore and skip past.

When you just did the Factory Reset on those phones,what you should have done is go into the Settings menu and remove your Google account first, and then do the Factory Reset.

Help Change Knox Guard State

lol.....the op already has a post there:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-change-knox-guard-state-from-active.4520279/

so a "custom FW" means a custom firmware, correct? which basically means you have a custom rom installed, yes? if so, do you have a custom recovery as well?

Its actually a stock firmware which is basically an intermediary FW to prepare the device to be flashed to the final FW of this provider. However, to flash the device to the final FW, I need to get rid of this Knox Guard in Active state. Not sure how to do it. I tried somethings I saw online like changing the date to avoid the 7 days lock in period but got no luck.
