connectToProtectedSSID should update network configuration if password changed about react-native-wifi-reborn HOT 6 CLOSED

You can actually remove it first yourself by calling isRemoveWifiNetwork(ssid) but there is one problem with this you can't fix; if the wifi network configuration was created by the user or by another app, your own app can't remove it.

@eliaslecomte Thanks for your solution. Yes, in my situation, I can not guarantee to remove the Wifi because maybe the user created the WIFI configuration. But in this situation, call wifiManager.updateNetwork() also will fail, right? In this situation, should we reject the promise by throw an exception to indicate the existed Wifi configuration is not the same as we passed in?

If this PR: #46 is accepted and a new version is published, this condition will actually be checked. (try to remove or if that fails, try to connect with saved connection). Also the promise will actually be rejected if it couldn't connect in this case.

@ljbatwh, thanks for the feedback! I am closing this issue since #46 was merged.

If the problem persists, feel free to reopen this issue.

hey @Rapsssito @eliaslecomte
connectToProtectedSSID does not work if password changes, is there any way to connect with the network other than going to wifi setting, forget the network and then connect.

Yes unfortunately this is how Android is. The app can't change a wifi configuration that the user or another app created. I am curious, since, starting Android 10, the network configuration isn't persisted in Wifi Settings, if this is also still a problem.
