All right, it turns out I didn't run ubuntu-device-flash the right way and ended up with an old image. I tested with devel-proposed, and I'd say that it's mostly fixed.
The UI is there, and I can use it to connect to a hidden network, but I did have a few of problems. First, when the keyboard was present on the screen to setup up the network it resulted in the test field for entering the passphrase getting covered by buttons, making it impossible to select the field until I dismissed the keyboard. Second, once connected I didn't have the little "wifi connected" icon in the top bar that I get when connected to a non-hidden network, just a blank space where it should have been. Finally, after I connected to the hidden network the list of available networks showed that network twice, once with a check mark and high signal indication and again unchecked with the graphic showing no signal. When I tapped the network with no signal it just disappeared. Oh, one more thing. The hidden network always appears at the bottom of the list of available network, regardless of relative signal strength, and even when I'm connected to that network. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-network in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1202806 Title: [mako] Cannot connect to hidden wifi network (touch|android) Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: There's no UI for this right now that I can find, but if I try to connect to a hidden wireless network on mako by manually creating the wpa_supplicant.conf file and launching wpa_supplicant by hand, authentication with the network fails. The same operation works fine on maguro, so odds are this is a driver bug. The network in question has WPA2-PSK security.
