Hi guys,
I am based in Dubai and due to career restrictions, we are not able to use VOIP and surf freely, is there any VPN app for Android (Anchorfree, hotspot shield is not yet available for Android sofar) SGS?
what about built in vpn ???
Thanks for reply, wt I wanted to say is that for iphone there are settings which we can put into in_built vpn to work, I am looking for these settings of hotspot shield, can please anyone help?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
the built in vpn is pretty straight forward.. there are really no settings for the vpn in dd-wrt just use pptp vpn and username and pwd is all you need.. not sure for other vpns.
i use witopia vpn and pptp on my macbook and sgs, you only put ur pptp information (same as iphone)
dono if anchorfree settings will work for you because i tried it on iphone before and it was awful plus they sell your data so don't access any sensitive information using their pptp.
ps: witopia pptp is a paid service (will cost you around 40$ a year, fully supported and safe).
or something cheap you recommend? i have RaptorVPN in laptop and they have android support but i have a error on connection
Use DroidVPN. Thats great
Search on Google?
I found this, might be of some help:

I use HMA for all my VPN connections including whe I use my HTC desire. Search google for HMA VPN that'll get you there.
I reall would like to buy a AFTV but I think Amazon prime will not be working with me because I located in Switzerland (which is not in scope of Amazon services) and want to use the German content instead.
Has the box geofencing? Or will the service work?
As my router could not apply a VPN connection for my whole home network I must install openvPN on the AFTV but I need therefore root access.
As I have read root access is not working anymore, does anyone else has a
Solution who to apply my vpn in order to use my German IP connection to the internet or another method to avoid geofencing?
Thank you so much for any good ideas, I think that Iam not the only one with this problem
I am currently testing unblock-us to access US-Netflix-content.
I think it should work with Amazon Prime Content too, but you need a german (or US) one-click Amazon account.
€: I just checked the unblock-us website and regarding Amazon Instant Video US ist the only available region. netflix on the other hand has plenty of region choices (see here)
No, no VPN without root. FTV does not come with OpenVPN binaries and to install them you need root. You can always buy a cheap router and flash it with DD-WRT software. If you go along that path, make sure your router is supported by DD-WRT here at http://www.dd-wrt.com
What kind of router do you have currently? Maybe you can use what you have....
If you dont find a cheap router with dd-wrt support try any with openwrt...
I use Unblock-us and have been using it from the time I got my Fire Tv. Its a very good service and very easy to setup, all you have to do is change your DNS on your router if you want it for all you web devices or just on the device that you want it to effect. I recommend doing it from the router. Its like $5 a month which isnt bad if you ask me. It also supports amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix and a lot of other services as well. Another service that is similar to unblock-us is Unlocator which is basically the same as Unblock-us just with problem some extra or less support never really checked the difference but I do know it works as I gave it a week trial.
i know you cant root a new AFTV bought in the UK but if i want to install kodi on it and be able to watch geo-restricted sites , is it still possible to use a DNS service on the AFTV and get into the dns settings without it being rooted ? thanks

Yes you can do that, that is exactly what I do for watching the football at the weekend, there are plenty of guides and even apps on this site which sideload apk's for you using adb.
No need for root
if i use a DNS service and im in the uk , will i be able to watch the sites my isp has blocked or would i need a vpn and not a DNS ? sorry if this seems a stupid question , but im sick of my isp blocking sites and want to know how to get round it without it slowing everything down ,. I cant do much with the router as its virgin media superhub and cant install a vpn on it or change dns settings . thanks

With the DNS settings (which you can enter directly into the AFTV) it only gives you access to geo restricted sites such as NBC Sports Live Extra, to get access to all sites you'll need a VPN so will need to buy a new router to either replace or connect to your Superhub. You will probably lose about 50% of your speed as well on a vpn with Virgin so recommend you try out some trial smart dns services first to see if that's enough for you.
Most smart dns services offer a free one or two week trial so you can try them all out before deciding on the best/cheapest
"Connect to the network" error while trying to unlock (and on chinese vpn server)
I've browsed more than a few threads on here where the reply for issues regarding unlocking is to use PlexVPN's Shanghai server. Unfortunately I've connected to that server and I'm still getting a "Connect to the network and try again" error when trying to unlock my device.
I've tried more than 10 different VPNs, different servers, etc. I have everything signed up logged in and my message for unlock authorization.
What's going on? I really want to kill these Mi Store ads.

You need to keep trying different ones, eventually it will work. Plex one didn't work for me either.
You also don't need to specifically connect to a Shanghai one, a China one in general will work.
