Configuring the Android Dev Phone to Work with PAL2.0
1. Install the Android SDK. Open a local shell window. Plug in the Android via USB. 2. Start the adb daemon as root...
% adb root
3. Get a copy of the ''Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem'' file from, say, http://www.cs.purdue.edu/homes/fultz/Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem. - Save the certificate to a local file, say ''cert.pem''. - Copy the certificate to the phone.
% adb push cert.pem /sdcard/certs/Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem''
- Get the current
wpa_supplicant.conf
file in/data/misc/wifi
(if it exists)…
% adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf x.txt
- Copy the text below into your (scratch)
x.txt
file. Be sure to edit in your login id and password (sigh).
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0 update_config=1 network={ ssid="PAL2.0" id_str="pal20" scan_ssid=1 proto=WPA RSN key_mgmt=WPA-EAP pairwise=TKIP group=TKIP eap=PEAP ca_cert="/sdcard/certs/Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem" identity="***LOGIN***" password="***PASSWORD***" phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2" }
- Copy your modified
x.txt
file back out to thewpa_supplicant.conf
file.
% adb push x.txt /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
- Turn off WiFi, and then turn it back on. If that doesn't do it, then reboot the phone…
% adb shell # reboot
Thanks, Charlie.
