Confirmed, Donut code has WPA Enterprise

July 28th, 2009

The next useless thing of android is the lack of WPA Enterprise. This is needed for wifi-connection on the campus of my university. If you search about this missing, you find out, android comes with wpa_supplicant. A good software for using all WPA security levels. Only the gui that Google had written is lame.

This issue is fix in the big Donut update a few days ago. In the source code of the settings app is a gui update for the things that WPA Enterprise need for working.

[platform/packages/apps/Settings.git] /src/com/android/settings/wifi/AccessPointDialog.java72     // These should be matched with the XML. Both arrays in XML depend on this
73     // ordering!
74     private static final int SECURITY_AUTO = 0;
75     private static final int SECURITY_NONE = 1;
76     private static final int SECURITY_WEP = 2;
77     private static final int SECURITY_WPA_PERSONAL = 3;
78     private static final int SECURITY_WPA2_PERSONAL = 4;
79     private static final int SECURITY_WPA_EAP = 5;
80     private static final int SECURITY_IEEE8021X = 6;

109     // Enterprise fields
110     private TextView mEapText;
111     private Spinner mEapSpinner;
112     private TextView mPhase2Text;
113     private Spinner mPhase2Spinner;
114     private TextView mIdentityText;
115     private EditText mIdentityEdit;
116     private TextView mAnonymousIdentityText;
117     private EditText mAnonymousIdentityEdit;
118     private TextView mCaCertText;
119     private Spinner mCaCertSpinner;
120     private TextView mClientCertText;
121     private Spinner mClientCertSpinner;
122     private TextView mPrivateKeyPasswdText;
123     private EditText mPrivateKeyPasswdEdit;
124     private EditText[] mEnterpriseTextFields;

If you want screenshots and no read the code, you have to wait. In the emulator exist no way to test the wifi. And the first Donut builds did not work proper. If you find out screenshots of WPA Enterprise settings in Donut, post a comment, please!
