Android chip-tool unable to commission nano leaf bulb, throwing pairing failed error on android chip-tool app

[Sravan Kumar]

Setup details:

In RPi running otbr-agent with nrf dongle RCP.

end device : nano leaf bulb.

Android chip-tool downloaded from : https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-connectedhomeip/releases/download/v2.2.0/chip-tool-android_aarch64.apk

as no logs available in  nano leaf bulb, so not captured logs.

but otbr-agent running in Rpi no issues.

Let me know any further info required .

as per chip-tool logs some analysis:

how to add path to certificates in android chip-tool app or add --bypass-attestation-verifier to pairing command

Hi

Have you followed this Android commissioning guide to see how to do the commissioning process and set up the accessory device? Are you sure the NanoLeaf bulb isn't already connected to the network over the RPi already, and that is why the phone isn't able to commission it?

What phone exactly are you using for commissioning? Have you checked the requirements saying you need a smartphone with Android 8 or newer and that you have a Wi-Fi Access Point supporting IPv6 (without the IPv6 Router Advertisement Guard enabled on the router).

Can you also share a screenshot of the phone when trying to commission so we get a better view of what's going on, as this error message doesn't tell me much I'm afraid.

Best regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Please find inline answers

Simon: Have you followed this Android commissioning guide to see how to do the commissioning process and set up the accessory device? Are you sure the NanoLeaf bulb isn't already connected to the network over the RPi already, and that is why the phone isn't able to commission it?

Sravan: we used prebuilt chip-tool apk from  https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-connectedhomeip/releases/download/v2.2.0/chip-tool-android_aarch64.apk, and NanoLeaf bulb not connected to the network over the RPi 

Simon: What phone exactly are you using for commissioning? Have you checked the requirements saying you need a smartphone with Android 8 or newer and that you have a Wi-Fi Access Point supporting IPv6 (without the IPv6 Router Advertisement Guard enabled on the router).

Sravan: tried with one plus nord 2 mobile (note same app and mobile able to commission and control nrf DK board (light example)).

Simon: Can you also share a screenshot of the phone when trying to commission so we get a better view of what's going on, as this error message doesn't tell me much I'm afraid.

Sravan : please find screenshots of chip-toll app.

as per previous attached debug logs, we found that its failing at AttestationVerification.

Is there a way to skip AttestationVerification or find required certificates of end device and available for AttestationVerification.
