Recent Android change regarding Wifi configuration
I am having the same issue, the issue for us also seems to run deeper. While I am able to fix the initial install of the Wi-Fi profile by adding the domain the certificates packaged with the profile are no longer installing correctly. As far as I can tell Android is not trusting the CA our Root comes from. In this state authentication to the EAP-TLS network fails and I am able to manually go around it on a device my manually telling the SSID config to not validate the CA cert...which of course defeats the purpose of a CA cert.
Hoping there is a fix for this soon.
On which version of Android are you facing this ?
We faced the same symptoms some months ago. If the Wifi payload was configured to trust a root certificate and if this root certificate was the same as the one that is in the certificate chain of the client certificate, this triggered the issue. We needed to remove the trust of the root certificate in the payload to have the connection working again. According to some investigation, it seems that the system was by default trusting the certificate chain of the client certificate and forcing to trust again the same root was causing the issue. Have you tried to remove the trust with the root CA in your WiFi profile ?
