[Q] Add VPN with only pattern lock screen method - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
i was in version 4.1.2 and i could simply add a VPN if i had only the pattern lock method enabled. but since i updated to 4.4.2 i no longer can use pattern lock to add credentials. when ever i try to add a VPN i am asked to change my lock screen method to PIN or Password and other options are also grayed out with message of "disabled by administrator encryption policy or credential storage"
is this a kit-kat policy so i can not add a VPN?! and how can i lower this policy so i just add the VPN with lock screen method only.
thanks.

I use VPN Root. Its a stand alone app. Ive never had to use a passcode. Granted it on my M8 but still, It might work

Connecting to 802.1x EAP with username

My workplace has wifi secured with 802.1x. It requires username and password to log in. But when I select that wifi, I only get a pop up windows for password. There is no place for me to input username.
I then tried to add it manually. I put SSID and security (enterprise 802.1x) and it immediately asks for password. I don't have the option to choose EAP or else.
What am I missing?
Solved... that password is my own purpose (to store all the info on the phone)... So I just set up a password and now I get to the next step to choose security methods...
Sorry to bother everyone...

Is it possible to lock the hotspot settings?

The company I work for wants to integrate the Xoom into our IT dept and such, but we need to be able to lock down and maybe password protect the VPN, WiFi settings, ect, so where Users cannot simply go through and find out the VPN password, or the wifi hotspot password. surely this is possible?
Any suggestions?
Keep in mind, this is for a company so we dont need to void the warranty on the devices by rooting them.
Thanks

[Q] After adding a CA certificate, I can't set my previous lockscreen setting

After adding a CA certificate, I can't set my previous lockscreen setting: just slicing to unlock. It has been disabled. It says: "disabled by admin, or certificate storage."
I've tried deleting my custom CA certificate (used for a proxy server), but Slicing lock feature keeps disabled.
I saw there was a solution, but is there a way to fix it without root?

how to see wifi password

i know the wifi modem user id and password. i can open it. but when i open the advanced wifi security settings, there i am getting some dots in the password feild. there is no option to see the password. i want to know how to decode that password. please help me regarding this
Hello there!
As far as I know you can't really access the WiFi key in plain text without having a rooted device.
If your device is rooted then there are several free apps on the Play Store which will list your saved WiFi connections with plain text keyphrases.
Cheers.
Root: /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
I am asking to see it in the modem. Not in the mobile. When I open the advanced wifi settings in the modem confirmation settings, it is showing the dots in the text field. I want to know how to decode that password.
And also as you said, my mobile was rooted Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I tried all the wifi password applications to know the password of the connected wifi. But none of the applications didn't work.

How to disable captive portal detection on a samsung 4.4.2

Hi! In my new university there is a free open wifi network but it asks to put my login details every time that i connect to it (it uses a captive portal).
I found an app to automate the login action in background but my phone detects that the wifi needs login details to receive Internet and disconnect from it and gives me a notification that "sign in required for this wifi network". So i need to tap on the notification to connect to this wifi.
Is there a way to disable this behavior??
I have root and xposed. The phone is a Samsung s3 neo with stock rom 4.4.2
