Problems and solutions

In different versions of Android sometimes at the point of installing the security certificate, a message pops up asking for "Enter the password for credential storage".

Try entering the device PIN code. If the PIN code is not accepted or the PIN code has not been set, follow these steps:

Go to > Security & location (or Security) > "Clear credentials".

Then go to Settings > Screen Lock (sometimes, lock screen settings appear on different devices in other places, If they are not in the general settings, try searching under Security or Display). Set a pattern lock (It may appear as line). When setting up the pattern, you will be asked to set a PIN code for recovery, set a PIN code it is important to remember it.

Restart the device.

When the device has finished restarting, you will be asked to insert the pattern to open the device, enter a wrong pattern 5 times and then enter using the recovery PIN you set up in Step 2 (click "Forgot pattern").

after you signing in to the device, go to Settings > More Networks > VPN, a window will pop up that will require a PIN code, enter a different PIN code than previously defined.

Now you can install the security certificate.
