The problem
I got my home SSID hidden enabled but the phone won't connect to it. I already made a ticket but it's silenced for reason I don't know.
Steps to reproduce <Hide the SSID of your modem, manual add your wifi network in phone settings = phone will not connect.>
What is the current behavior? <Hide the SSID of your modem, manual add your wifi network in phone settings = phone will not connect.>
What is the expected correct behavior? <After manual add a wifi name the phone should connect to it as soon it's close enough, no matter it's hidden or not.>
