[SOLVED]Hotspot created with password can't be connected by Android

This is my /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Melody-Hotspot.nmconnection config file:

[connection]
id=WIFI-Hotspot
uuid=0cc42876-aca5-439f-bb43-d181ff33e33b
type=wifi
autoconnect=false

[wifi]
mode=ap
ssid=WIFI-Hotspot

[wifi-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-psk
psk=ha1234567890

[ipv4]
method=shared

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
method=auto

[proxy]

I can not connect this hotspot on my Android phone. However, it can be connected after unsetting password. Here is the config file:

[connection]
id=WIFI-Hotspot
uuid=0cc42876-aca5-439f-bb43-d181ff33e33b
type=wifi
autoconnect=false

[wifi]
mode=ap
ssid=WIFI-Hotspot

[ipv4]
method=shared

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
method=auto

[proxy]

Maybe try it like this:

[wifi-security]
group=ccmp;
key-mgmt=wpa-psk
pairwise=ccmp;
proto=rsn;
psk=YOUR_WIFI_AP_PASSWORD
