Hi [mohammed.aljammali](https://devforum.zoom.us/u/mohammed.aljammali),

Thanks for the post. Are you using Zoom default UI or Custom UI? If you are using Zoom default UI, then it should not stay with “MEETING\_STATUS\_CONNECTING” and a pop-up will show up and ask for the password.

If you are using Custom UI, the reason why the MeetingStatus stays at “MEETING\_STATUS\_CONNECTING” could be that the following listener has not been implemented or handled:

```auto
@Override
        public void onMeetingNeedPasswordOrDisplayName(boolean needPassword, boolean needDisplayName, InMeetingEventHandler handler) {
}

```

If the user enters the wrong password, it will keep the meeting status in connecting, trigger this listener to ask for the right password.

Hope this helps. Thanks!
