PPTP vpn won't connect - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I can't seem to connect to my work's pptp vpn with my E4GT. It says "Connecting..." then "Unsuccessful".
If it matters, I'm on Calkulin's_E4GT_2_ROM_v1.2.
Using my PC I can connect to it, just not from my phone. Any suggestions?

I've never had pptp problems with android. l2tp seems to have only been fixed recently for me with gb roms (could be my vpn servers were at fault.)

I'm having the same exact issue OP. Just signed up for a VPN service, I'm able to config my Windows machine to use the connection just fine.. On my phone I'm getting "Connecting..." then "Unsuccessful" when I try to connect. I'm also running Caulk's ROM.. same version.

I've had no luck connecting to my ddwrt over pptp since getting this phone. My crappy HTC hero used to work but not this phone. From what I could find online it has to due with the dynamic IP that sprint is given my epic. I've read that if you get a static IP from sprint that it somehow doesn't have a firewall blocking these connections, however it is not free. I have not tried this yet.

I have a lg optimus one and depending on my rom depends on if my pptp vpn connects. I was going nuts trying to troubleshoot it and then i set it up on my computer to test there and was able to connect without an issue.
If i use CM 9.2.2 (ics rom) i can connect without a problem.
if i use a custom rom based on 9.2 the vpn does not connect. whats funny is they are both ICS rom's.

Wifi tether

it works kinda slow but I was able to install app called hotspot toggle and I was able to pick it up on my ipad and netbook took awhile to get an ip but it worked!! I haven't figured out how to change the settings to put a wpa and stuff but indeed a nice solution for now till a root occurs

Great find. !
This is also useful on nexus one as I don't have to go through all the hassle to turn on hotspot.
Great, I'll go out to buy G2 this week!
But how can I change the mobile hotspot settings on G2 when it's hidden?
Good question. I would like to know. Have yet to make a successful connection. But it is sending out a wifi connection. Just can't obtain a ip address. Only tried to connect N1. And to tired to find my laptop. Will try in the am. And post back
Can't get a connection but it is transmiting.

apparently it broadcasts a SSID but doesn't assign a ip guess tmo knew what they were doing. pretty sure we could overcome this with root.

According to what OP said, it may take a while to get IP.
I found the writter and I'll ask him to put additional mobile hotspot settings on his application.

Awesome! Shows up as Open Connection - connected ...
releasing and attempting to renew now ...
EDIT:
Didn't pull an IP - I'm not convinced that there is a DHCP server running on Vision with just toggling the connection.
I now have a reason to install a Terminal Emulator and check out IFCONFIG xD
....
Tried IFCONFIG under normal and temp Root - nothing displays
Was this part of busybox previously?
Just got PDAnet and it seems to be working great

The problem is: both easytether and PDAnet don't work with Cradlepoint routers.

[Q] Problem with wifi hotspot

I have been using my dhd as a wifi hotspot for my laptop for quite sometime, recently I got a nookcolor and I tried to connect to it as well. It showed that the wifi is connecter, but no internet.
I tried connecting to other sources, like a regular router, a nexus one, all works.
The settings are all default, including the DHCP being checked.
Anyone know why?
same problem I am with orange UK - wondering if just dont allow you to share your signal. I know in USA they have to pay their provider to use wifi hotspot. I posted on this before but nobody replied.
Well I persisted to try it out again, flipping around the authentication methods (None, WEP, WPA etc). Now this is the weird thing.
Gtalk/Gmail app on my nookcolor works perfectly fine. On browsers (stock, opera mini), nothing loads ....
which network are you with? and are you using stock rom?
I'm on a Singapore network, there's no restriction on tethering, and yes, I'm using stock rom (not rooted) on my desire hd, nookie froyo on my nookcolor.

I didn't want to make a new thread, so i thought i ask here.
Have any of you tried speedtest.net or the speedtest app?
If i do a speed test on my DHD it shows 4,5mbit download (HSDPA). But if i use HTC WIFI hotspot to share my phones internet connection, then i get only about 2mbit download on my laptop. Is that normal?

Evo wont connect to secured wireless router

No matter what security method i use i cannot connect. It connects right away with no security. This started after I flashed CM 7.1. its a linksys wrt54g
have you tried making your EVO 4G forget unsecured networks first? or are there a network mangement software running background?

but it does connect, just not when secured, that makes me think its not a rom problem, but then again I dont know. anything is possible with electronics
Go to Linksys website and update firmware in router
Sent From My Pocket
If other devices can connect except for your Evo with encryption enabled, then it's not your router. I'm on CM7.1 (not RC1) and it works with my wifi and I have a wrt54gs. If you flashed a kernel, then I would try another one. Worst case, download the ROM again and setup your wireless and verify that it works.

I had a similar issue the last time I changed from CM-7 to EVOLvedROM...I could not manually connect to my secured router. I would actually have to log into the router and run WPS "Wi-Fi Protected Setup" via PBC "Push Button Configuration". During the PBC was the only time the phone would connect to the router. I tried everything I could think of. I finally reflashed the rom and that seemed to do the trick.
I had this problem today. I'm was running a Mik rom and it wasn't connecting even though I had put the correct key. I also flashed another rom and it didn't connect. The only thing that really worked for me was waiting.
Do you have other secured routers you could try to connect to? If so, does it connect to those properly or no?

Thanks for the help everyone. I changed the password and it connected right away. I dont know why though because i checked several times to make sure my passwords matched.

WIFI HOTSPOT ISSUE on TORO(others?) ( 4.2+ (and xbox)

Has anyone successfully tethered their VZW Gnex using native tether option (on any rom)?
I can get any other device ro connext and user the hotspot i create. But when i connect my xbox to the wifi hotspot the xbox tells me it cannot obtain IP address.
I've tried a ton of ways to fix this, even manually setting the IP the xbox looks for and such. But still no go.
If i go back to any 4.1 rom I'm able to connect to xbox and user my lte tether with no issues.
Anyone with a similar experience or fix to this? I've been trying to figure it out ever since 4.2 dropped and thought I'd finally see what my fellow forum users have to say on this subject
Thanks in advance for everything guys!
Re: WIFI HOTSPOT ISSUE on 4.2+ (and xbox)
Quick bump
Sorry
I usually don't bump. I just been going nuts trying To see if it's only me having the problem
Any tips besides the basic stuff to fix an issue with tether? (To xbox360)
I can't get tethering to work on any 4.2.* ROM. Native or the WiFi Tethering app.
Since this is an absolutely critical feature for me, it looks like I'll never be upgrading.
I would seriously like an answer to this as well. I was going to make another thread here asking about the same thing because it seems that w/e rom I used that's based off of 4.1.w/e allows me to use my wifi hotspot just fine. I know it's not any of the devices receiving the signals problem because they were working just fine before I updated my g-nex to 4.2.1 or 4.2.2. Seriously....I've reached out and I get no answers. I don't want to go back to older versions because I shouldn't have too. I've used almost all different kinds of wifi apps like foxfi and others, but foxfi force closes, and all the others just don't work. I really need this feature to work! Any ideas?.....anybody?
Re: WIFI HOTSPOT ISSUE on 4.2+ (and xbox)
Thanks guys
I KNEW i wasn't alone
The error i get on xbox is it cant obtain ip address
When i look under settings about phone ever since 4.2 it always says ip address unavailable.
I was hoping we could collaborate at least a workaround by "spoofing" an ip and then manually setting it on the xbox. Unless we can stumble across a true fix to why this has started happening
Thanks for the input, lets me know I'm not going completely insane yet hahah
Thats weird. I have used my phone to tether my tablet, PS3 and my work computer. Hearing people say it doesn't work for them is surprising. I'm running the CM10.1 nightlies and using the native wifi tethering.
EDIT: I just realized you guys were mainly talking about the Xbox. lol, oops
Re: WIFI HOTSPOT ISSUE on 4.2+ (and xbox)
Yea that's the thing
I can tether to ANYTHING else just fine.
In fact i just tethered to my tablet and my computer.
The only thing that i get the Ip cant be obtained issue on is when trying Ti straight hotspot tether to the xbox itself.

You are not alone my friend. This is preventing me from updating. I'm following another thread where they found a fix for the Wi-Fi tether for root users to work properly on 4.2.2, but I have not received confirmation on if it also fixes and allows the Xbox to work again. I'm tempted to just try it myself and see what happens.... but haven't as of yet.

I decided it was time. I made a backup. Flashed BB8, and just to be sure, I tried the native tethering. Didn't work. Then I tried this apk the guy modified for WiFi tether for root users. I tried absolutely ever different combination possible in settings, and still the Xbox would not work.
This guy reprogrammed that app, so now I'm going to try getting ahold of him to see if he can specifically look into the Xbox issue. Who knows. Maybe he is a miracle worker.
For now, I'm already back to BB6 4.1.2.

I do it all the time. On the Xbox internet connection screen try to delete the connect and try from scratch. I'm using XenonHD 8.0 works like a charm.

I'm on 4.2.2 right now and I get an ip address with tethering on. You were saying it's unavailable under about phone -> status right? Works for me. Maybe it's the hostapd binary in stock. Try the one from my 3.3 kernel or later. Sorry my xbox has no wifi.

So, since you are some what blowing my mind, I just want to be doubly sure here.
You are on that ROM, and you can activate the native tethering feature on your Verizon Galaxy Nexus (toro), turn on your Xbox, connect it wirelessly to your phone, and successfully connect to Xbox live and play online?
That's all true and you aren't just messing with me?

WiFi Tethering Still A Problem For This Device...WHY?

I know this is probably not the section for this topic but there have been several posts on it with no definitive answers....I use FoxFi WiFi Tether on all my devices without a glitch, even the new Nexus 5, but not this phone " WHY ????? ", it doesn't make sense. With this device it shows a connection to the computer but it wont allow the internet connection....I can use the USB function of the FoxFi but have to install PDAnet to work. I know TrevE WiFi Tether app is installed with most Roms and works to a certain degree but not copletely with ZVC. From what I can deduce, it has something to do with the WPA (WPA2) settings for the phone. This is obviously a Dev issue so will someone with the know-how fix this problem for everyone....Personally, I will be happy to donate to someone to get it done.....so "Brains", get a project going on it and help us out....Thanks...

I never had a problem with Treve Wifi tether, although I don't use it for long at a time I just set device to galaxy nexus cdma/lte and it works. I do wish we had the native option enabled like my wifes S3 and our old Evo's, the native option is by far the best.

Thank you for your response. I've tried every setting possible that I know of for TrevE wifi, and like I said, I can connect but it does not let me download torrents and any tracked downloads. When I was on ZV9 Lifeless it worked fine but upgrading to ZVC caused the problems. I will ask you as I asked the other responder, please try to download a torrent with Utorrent and let me know if you can. If you can I would appreciate knowing what Rom, Kernel and Wifi settings you have. Thanks.

It may be something with your phone then if you cant get tether on any aosp rom. Did you use Freegee to flash recovery? I only ask because the newer aosp roms some require a special recovery for them to flash correctly but if you use Freegee either recovery works just fine.

Im kinda confused now because I've download torrents on my phone and my nexus 7 using utorrent and wifi tether, I just downloaded the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World soundtrack on my nexus 7 so I know it works. I will try Foxfi and see what happens but I would guess Treve wifi would be the better option. Have you tried Treve wifi using the settings I mentioned above, I've been using treve wifi since evo3d days and never had a problem once I got it setup properly.
if we can get through entitlement checks for the tether all the others will work after that i bet. i suck at smali but there are lots of devs that done in here. any takers?

So basically you are saying it is possible to make the wifi tethering issues better for this device, just finding a Dev to work out the problems is the issue..
Like I've said before, I don't mind donating to that project if someone will step up to do it. I'm simple minded when it comes to stuff like that but would it not be possible to copy code from another LG device ( like the Nexus 5) that tether works well and just work it in?

i was looking at another source for the sprint gs4 it is missing all the entitlement smali code in services.jar so even if you delete the entitlement code you have to sift through the other files to delete any other code that defines the entitlement code. ill pull both of them up on a diff viewer.
and see how different they really are....

OK I thought you were trying to download on your phone. On your computer you have to make sure the correct ports are open. Im not sure but I think the ports that need to be open for torrents start around 6881 and if its not open the program will try to use the next available port that can be used for torrents. Vuze makes setup easy and is much faster than bittorrent or utorrent and its not constantly downloading background stuff like bittorrent and utorrent.
