No, I'm referring to WiFi offered at airports, coffee shops, bars, or at someone's home etc... You are given a username and password and the phone shows the SSID, you just enter the username and password and are connected. There is never a window asking you to trust a certificate.

Could be WPA-Personal, also known as WPA-PSK, where a shared secret (Pre Shared Key) is needed, or Wi-Fi Protected Setup? But I think these don't require a username. One option is a built-in client that launches a customised browser to help with captive portal login.

The problem with the above is that Wi-Fi client software in your device does not know how to authenticate the network. The network demands that credentials are used but the Wi-Fi client software has nothing to demand from the network.
