Backup/Restore Wifi not compatible with Android Oreo 8+

Open Sepero opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Android Oreo 8+ uses a new file for storing WiFi network data

The new file is /data/misc/wifi/WifiConfigStore.xml

(As a side note, I would love to find any app that can backup wifi from older Android and restore to the new xml format, but I haven't yet)

@Sepero I also didn't find one, so I had to write it: here. Not an android app, but a perl script to run on your computer. It will convert old wpa_supplicant.conf to new WifiConfigStore.xml format.
