I also get the problem, the I read the source file pdfview2.c , I found the 
method parse_pdf_file ： 
 if (pdf_needs_password(pdf->xref)) {
        int authenticated = 0;
        authenticated = pdf_authenticate_password(pdf->xref, "");
        if (!authenticated) {
            /* TODO: ask for password */
            __android_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_ERROR, PDFVIEW_LOG_TAG, "failed to authenticate with empty password");
            return NULL;
        }
    } 
in the source , but I don'n know how to do

Hi Maciel n WangNin,

  If you have static pdf password, just put in this line 
"authenticated = pdf_authenticate_password(pdf->xref, 
"put-your-password-here");"
At least that was i'm doing :)

Best Regards,
Santo
