Cannot establish TLS connection to Openfire 4.1.3 server with Smack 4.2 on Android: SSLProtocolException: SSL handshake aborted

Question

I'm trying to connect to my Openfire 4.1.3 server with Smack 4.2, the current config works ok:

XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.Builder config = XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.builder();
    config.setSecurityMode(ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.disabled);
    config.setXmppDomain(serviceName);
    config.setHost(context.getString(R.string.server));
    config.setHostnameVerifier(verifier);
    config.setHostAddress(addr);
    config.setResource("Android");
    config.setPort(Integer.parseInt(context.getString(R.string.server_port)));
    config.setDebuggerEnabled(true);

    XMPPTCPConnection.setUseStreamManagementResumptionDefault(true);
    XMPPTCPConnection.setUseStreamManagementDefault(true);
    connection = new XMPPTCPConnection(config.build());

If I try to connect with SecurityMode.required I can't establish any connection. I read aroud about setting CA on device, but I don't know what to do. Any help?

EDIT: These are the new lines added for trying to connect with SecurityMode.required

config.setSecurityMode(ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.required);
    config.setCompressionEnabled(false);

    SSLContext sslContext = null;
    try {
        sslContext = createSSLContext(context);
    } catch (KeyStoreException | NoSuchAlgorithmException
            | KeyManagementException | IOException | CertificateException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    config.setCustomSSLContext(sslContext);
    config.setSocketFactory(sslContext.getSocketFactory());

It generates this error stack:

setUsernameAndPassword() method is missing.

 val config= XMPPTCPConnectionConfiguration.builder()
                    .setXmppDomain(mDomainName)
                    .setUsernameAndPassword(mUsername,mPassword)
                    .setDebuggerEnabled(true)
                    .setSecurityMode(ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.disabled)



            mConnection= XMPPTCPConnection(config.build())
            mConnection!!.connect().login()

Your Android platform does not like the SSL/TLS version your Openfire uses.
