Hello,
I have a Xiaomi PocoX7pro with latest kde connect from fdroid and the KDE
connect from the repos of opensuse Tumbleweed.
Whenever I try to pair the two, they see each other, but the security key
indicated at the PC screen (expected) is totally different with the one in
reception.
Any suggestion what could happen to compromise / destroy the key exchange?
If one uses the non corresponding key it pairs, but of course security is
compromised like this. So I did take of then the pairing, did it just for
reporting purposes.
This happens under Bluetooth and no difference if I am using the phone or the
plasma BT stack via Konnect to pair.
The phone itself is correctly paired via BT without issues.
