Hi,

We just released version 2.0(678) in the beta channel.

This test build contains:
- a fix for TLS profiles without Passphrase;
- ignores Passpoint errors for Android versions below 11;
- the close button size is adjusted to fit wider translated values;
- fix crashes on platforms that did not implement the action API;
- fix some other reasons for crashing, among others too large logo's *) from CAT profiles;

We hope the last two fixes resolve the crashes on HONOR phones, and maybe Xiaomi and Oppo also.

Feedback is much appreciated!

Regards,
Paul

*) There are organizations that uploaded logo's of 1 or 3 MB ... and they appear in every profile!

Hi,

It may be we have an update that helps for Xiaomi phones, I'll let you know when the beta is released. If you want, I can already send you an .apk by e-mail, but I expect the beta real soon,

Regards,
Paul

Hello again Stefan,

The Xiaomi problem is happening on MIUI 12.5 and older versions.

It seems newer versions of MIUI (MIUI 13 and MIUI 14) are working ok.

We are going to try geteduroam 1.1.0 from Aug 16, 2023 on the devices, as a workaround and trying to find out more information about the problem.

Thank you so much for your help.

Regards,

Hi Óscar,

 

But – does the older version of the app configure the device for eduroam? If it does, that’d be the advice to give for the time being. But if you can also give me more information about the Xiaomi device being used (model, version of Android etc), that would be helpful, so I can try and source one for future tests.

You don't often get email from oscarrdg AT unav.edu. Learn why this is important

Hello Stefan,

 

Thank you so much for your reply.

 

The problem we are seeing in Xiami devices is not an "invalid profile" error.

The profile seems to work properly, but when the user inserts the credentials, the geteduroam closes silently and no wifi configuration has been added to the device.

 

Thank you again,

 

Regards,

Hi Óscar,

 

Apologies, I only partially answered your question – With the Xiaomi device, try the same advice as the HONOR device and see whether that resolves the issue?

 

With kind regards

Hi Óscar,

 

The issue with HONOR devices pre-dates the new geteduroam app. We (Jisc) have some advice here: https://community.jisc.ac.uk/library/network-and-technology-service-docs/geteduroam-app

 

John, could you provide more information to me by replying to this email (or by raising an eduroam ticket through the eduroam Support portal)? We’ll try to get to the bottom of it.

 

With kind regards

Hello everyone,

 

Since last geteduroam update we are having problems configuring eduroam on Xiaomi devices with MIUI firmware 12.5 and older.

It looks like it can not install the CA certificate.

 

We have also detected some problems with an Honor device. Not sure if it's related yet.

 

Anyone has notice also this problem? 

 

Thank you so much.

 

Regards,

Hi there,

 

I have been asked to report this issue to you by the University Information Services (UIS) team at Cambridge. I'm having issues trying to login to eduroam using the 'geteduroam app' on my Huawei mobile.

 

UIS know of at least one other report of a Huawei device having issues with the updated app, so it could be a related problem. They suspect this is an issue with the new version of the geteduroam app. If anyone has a workaround for the issue, please do let me know.

 

Best,

 

John
