Ah ok, 
Then again it was my impression that even a weak password could be chosen by pressing "Done" twice (which was not the case).

BTW iirc the password "Ditiseentest" was accepted as fair (no digit or symbol here). The English version "Thisisatest" was considered weak (maybe because the first variant was 12 chars and the 2nd one 11).

It's expecting characters other than just alphanumeric. So if you
substitute a ! for the 2 on the end I suspect it'll work just fine.
