Connecting to 802.1x EAP network

كت
I just got my Alcatel OneTouch idolx running 4.2.2 and it has been performing great, I am just having trouble connecting to my office's WiFi.

The security reads "802.1x EAP", and upon trying to connect I am asked for my credentials. Entering my username/password just puts me into a "Connecting... Saved, secured with 802.1x.. Connecting..." loop. Now I read a ton of threads before posting this and the general consensus was to download the Wifi Advanced Configuration Editor app, and so I did.

I followed these instructions:

In settings --> WiFi, add a network
SSID - the name of my offices network
Security - 802.1xEAP
Identity - my username
Password - password
EAP method - PEAP
Phase 2 authentication - MSCHAPV2

and save. Now over to the ACE app. I open the app, select the network I am trying to connect to, under "Key Management" I unselect WPA_EAP, leaving only IEEE8021X. Under "Enterprise Configuration" I fill in my password. These are the only two actions I have performed in the app. Completely back out of ACE, and try to connect again. No dice, same deal.

So i'm not sure what setting or step I am missing in this process. I do notice though that after backing out of the ACE app, when I go back in all the defaults are in the network I am trying to join. As in, where I had just unselected WPA_EAP in "Key Management", it has once again been selected. So maybe I am just having trouble with the app and saving my settings?

If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated!

WiFi Aware Development Help (Not Working)

I agree however it is really weird since the documentation says that WiFi Aware is available on Android 8.0 and above and on the Pixel. I will send an email to Google detailing the issue. Also, I am wondering if you have any idea as to why I get the NullPointerException with the WifiAwareManager and WifiAwareSession objects. Do you think it has to do with the lack of support? Let me know, thank you.

Hi Patrick - did you ever contact google in regards to this? I am having the same issue with >Android 8.x - the phones are NOT Pixel's though so perhaps that is my problem. Please advise if possible. Cheers, Ryan

Unknown Grey Bar freezes Home Screen

Try clearing your browser's cache. This could be some dodgy ad script malfunctioning.

Of course it could also be an adware problem of some other sort, but if so it will require identifying and removing the app, so it's worth trying the above quickly just in case.

Of course it could be some other malfunctioning app as well. It doesn't sound like a system feature. Any apps updated or installed shortly before it started would be suspects.

Only Back and Recent buttons are lighted up. Nothing else works

Really sorry to hear that.
Before you do anything else, try a Force Restart. Press and hold the Volume down key and Power Key simultaneously for 15 to 20 seconds. This simulates a battery disconnect.This should at least help in restarting the phone.

Below I'm laying out the steps for a hard reset, the initial steps are identical to clearing the system cache.Try clearing the cache and see if it helps. If not repeat the process and then do the hard reset.

Turn off the device.
Press and hold the Volume Up key, Home key and Power key simultaneously. Do not release them till the phone opens up the Android System Recovery screen. This could take a while.
Once this screen (black with white lettering on top) opens, release the keys.
Use the Volume down key to highlight "wipe cache partition" and then select using the Power key.
Alternatively, to hard reset, use the Volume key to Highlight hard reset and use power key to select

Are you sure your phone has not automatically backed up to either Samsung or Google?

hey mate, tried to do what you had listed. this is what happened.

1. batt charged full. started phone. very slow start. was in the lock screen for 10secs and rebooted. After this unable to power up or reboot the phone.
2. waited for batt to be used up in step 1. instead of starting phone. Tried to do hard reset or get to the menu using the steps you have listed. it never did. it was stuck on the samsung startup logo and never rebooted again.

I'm getting really worried its a hardware fault and am now really desperate to try to get my pictures and docs in the phone.
managed to get backup by booting sim and google account in another phone but still unable to get pictures and files.

Do you know anything else that I can do? really appreciate the advise.

Mobile data toggle

Can't you customise the shortcuts in the notification slide? That's been standard for years on most devices. If you can, check it's not just not one of the options they didn't set by default.

If it's really not an option there are apps you can use to put a toggle on one of your home screens, probably lots of those.

App keeps reverting to previous version

I have a problem where AS installs a version of my app v1.07 onto my phone when it is plugged into my PC (Windows). This is the latest version.
I then generate an APK and copy it to a location on our intranet (since it is local to our company only)
If I then link to the intranet on my phone, and download and install this APK, the app then reverts to v1.06 on my phone.
Initially I thought that AS was not updating the APK, but subsequently I found this not be the case.
On a different phone that had an even older app (v1.04), I linked to this APK and installed it, and it correctly reflected v1.07. So the APK generated is definitely v1.07. I also tested this on a phone that had never had the app previously installed, and it went straight to v1.07 from this downloaded APK.

So back on my phone I went into app settings, and deleted the data & cache, an then uninstalled the app.
I also went to downloads and APK's downloaded, and deleted anything downloaded. I then tried to install the APK again from the intranet link, and it is AGAIN v1.06.

I can't figure out where it is getting this v1.06, but also why it isn't reflecting v1.07 when that is what the APK version is...?

For reference, I have also asked this question on Stack Overflow
