Trying to connect a brand new 8.0 X4 and set it up on a Netgear router with a long password, f27b6794e4ee160fdc6b51edf4cea072fcac6419eda404aa7e2260ef49568cc6, WPA2 encryption. But, the phone won't accept the long password.
Any ideas?
Thats a long password wow.
Shorten the wifi password?
Perhaps the space in the password is the issue?

Every time my phone can't connect to Wi-Fi for whatever reason (reason being signal too low for example, NOT wrong password), it forgets the stored password. How to fix this? This is driving me crazy.
anyone? noone has this problem?
Sometimes when I am on my girlfriends wireless, which uses wpa, my device will forget the password mid session. So I will be happily browsing and all of a sudden it asks for the password again...
Is that your problem? Or different?
I recently received my Chromecast device and ran through the setup process at home with no issue, used the password from my netgear router and started streaming netflix. However when I tried to do the same thing on a WEP2 PEAP network that required a username and password I could not get the Chromecast to connect cause it does not ask for a username only a password. Is there any work around or modification available for the Chromecast device to allow the device to either connect to this type of network or force it to request the username and password for the network?
Need this badly

I am needing this ability badly. Hope Google will update the software soon!!
I would love peap functionality as well, when I'm at school. I've been getting by using a router off of my schools Ethernet.

Hello Guys,
I'm stuck with this issue. My Nook HD+ cannot connect to the Wifi hotspot of my phone. It keeps saying "Obtaining IP.." and then disconnected, and then obtaining IP again . I tried to change the encryption methods, WPA to WEP, even no encryption but it didn't help. Connection to other devices (routers) is fine. Anyone has the same problems? I am using CM10.1 version 08/01
This is usually an authentication failure.
Have you connected any other devices thru your smartphone and has success???
The hotspot app must have both a network name and a pass phrase set up.
Don't use any offered defaults: enter a new network name and a decently secure WPA pass phrase.
I use FoxFi on my Droid Razr and that app uses WPA2 only.
Then all you have to do is select the correct network and enter the pass phrase on your Nook.
I have had the following surreal experience with two brand-new HTC Ones (brand new from factory, stock ROM).
I use a long (63-character) WPA2 password. After I connect to wifi with the phone for the first time, it remembers it and reconnects as expected whenever the AP comes in range. However, after connecting to a free open Wifi AP, the phone will no longer remember the 63-character WPA2 password.
However, it *will* remember a WPA2 password if it's 45 characters or fewer. But 46 or more characters will not be remembered. Multiple Factory Resets did not clear this problem...the phone was stuck in this mode.
This happened with our first phone (right after visiting a local tire shop and using their open Wifi) and I thought it was a fluke. So we got Verizon to get us a new phone. That phone worked fine for a few weeks, until we made the mistake of connecting to an open wifi network at Panera Bread. After that, it no longer would connect to our home network, unless I lowered the WPA2 password length to fewer than 46 characters.
I can't imagine I'm the only one with this problem if it's a reliable bug, so perhaps it has something to do with our AP, or my use of MAC authentication, but I'm truly at a loss. Has anyone out there seen this, or gone through this combination of steps and still emerged with an HTC One that remembers very long WPA2 passwords?

I ran into the same thing regarding password lengths, though I can't relate it to open network connections made in the past. 63 only works on some ROMs, 44 works on all that I've tried.
Probably the same bug

Is 44 really the cut-off point for you? I believe mine is 45.
In any event, my bet is that when you find that only shorter WPA2 passwords work, that phone has connected to an open wifi hotspot in the past.
Hi!
I have the same problem... no solution?
Cheers
I have a issue I'm having that I've tried all I know and it's still not fixed. My issue is I'm at school and they have a wifi network. And to gain access to it you must
Connect to it
Enter the security key
Open a Web browser
Log into my account
You now have access
This works on my note 2 and other people's laptops but not mine.
I can get it to the point of entering the security key and says it's connected but then says no Internet access. And when I open a Web browser (tried chrome and ie) it never give me a prompt to enter my log in.
So I'm at a loss. If anyone knows any tips or tricks to try I appreciate it.
I had this with the Uni internet every bloody year after the summer.
Did you check the encryption settings? For me it turned out they decided to switch between AES and TKIP every year. Still don't know why that struck them as a good idea, but alas.
Yeah its aes when I switch to tkip it doesn't connect anymore
I finally found the issue. For some reason when I reset all the network stuff and adapter the default setting for ipv4 was set to a specific dns server. So I just changed it to automatic and it works now.
