I'm doing my thesis and I'm developing an Android app to set up home devices Iot (wifi). In this case, the devices are being simulated using a Rspberry Pi 3, which creates an access point (captive portal, without a password) with a known name, that is, AutoDevAP-NameOfDevice. My application is showing the existing SSID in the scope of the smartphone and allows the user to select one of the SSIDs and connect (in this case, the application is only implemented to connect with this type of SSID.)
The problem is: after the user selects the SSID to connect (AutoDevAP-SmartSwitch) I start another activity to connect to this ssid, however I am stuck because the smartphone never connects to it and I am using the same logic I have Used to develop an application to always connect to the same SSID without password, but it will not work. Initially I taught that the problem was in the listener adapter, but I debugged the code and it's not that problem.
