Just installed CM10 by Quarx. I found it requires enable some security before adding VPN accounts. That'll disable the slipe wheel for unlocking the phone.
Even I did that. I can not get my VPN established.
May there be somebody help me?
--------------------------------------- AUG 6 2012------------------------------
I found a solution only speed very slow but Ok for twitter. You can search and download in Google play
It's droidvpn. web:www.droidvpn.com
It required a rooted phone.

你好。好像同步账户是可以的。但是twitter，这个比较纠结啊。
Hi， seems I can sync account. But for twitter, no idea.
May be I should try Goagent and some other ways to get across the GFW

还有个方法，就是你用电脑先连接VPN，然后再共享这个VPN，最后想办法让手机使用电脑的这个网络，比如adhoc或者是用无线路由器，不过这是临时方法，并不能真正解决问题
i have another solution, you can use your computer to establish VPN, then try to share this vpn, but i can't use this solution everytime, any developer can help us ?

As far as I tried unfortunately nor CM9 neither CM10 support PPTP VPN.
The only VPN I could use is OpenVPN. You can download two apps (Installer and settings) from the Google Play. Installer shows you if you have all necessary files installed.
You must establish VPN server or get approach to one of commercial OpenVPN servers. The problem is that OpenVPN server normally works with server/client certificates what demands cert key on the client side. You can't install cert key on Android so you must follow this solution:
http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html#auth
It might be a problem to install effective OpenVPN server for you because it will face the same obstacles which demands use of VPN for uncensored approach to web in your country. Possible solutions are:
1. ask a friend abroad to share VPN server with you;
2. use commercial VPN server but be cautious: a few support user/password identification of the client, which is the only appropriate approach for android.
Take a look on this site:https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/. You can have 2 clients connected simultaneously for les than 40$ a year. If you share VPN with someone...

Exclamation VPN problem
hi all. I'm living in a country where nearly all sites (even facebook, youtube, twitter, friendfeed ...) have been filtered and we can not access them without vpn.
I use vpn on my pc and there is no problem using it but I can't have it on my ppc.
I setup everything in detail but when I try to connect I get the username/pass error which says:
VPN server problem. Verify your username and password, and try again. If the problem continues, turn the device off and try again
I've asked my vpn provider for mobile compatible IP and he has given me so, which he says works fine for iphone users. but I still have problem connecting to.

The name pings as 173.236.83.117, have you tried putting this in instead of the full name? also have you put the name/ip adress in your exceptions list? I believe you will need to!
Hey everyone. Was curious if anyone has tried a VPN application on the Nexus. Not sure if stock kernel would even support it. I currently use VPN Connections on my Droid Incredible CM7, as it was only easy vpn app I found to connect to my cisco vpn network at work.
Yeah you need custom kernel and root.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
No root or custom kernel with Columbitech! All stock client with Android 4.0! Two factor authentication, 256 bit AES encryption, FIPS 140-2 certification and session persistence!

Wait, I thought ICS added Cisco VPN support. Why bother with rooting or Columbitech?

Cisco VPN now works, at least against the ASA5505 I'm testing against. It accepts Group Names under IPSec/L2TP/PSK. Key in your group name and password, and it should work. Have not messed with certificates yet.
Works for me too (don't know the model).
This release is all kinds of awesome

Cisco has Anyconnect apps in the market for SSL VPN. You have to have the corresponding mobile licenses installed in the ASA first.

Hmm...looks like it either requires root or a specific hardware vendor's ROM to work. Guess they haven't updated it to use the ICS VPN API yet.
Hmmmm today Im try connect to Cisco VPN which use Group Authentication but failed. On PC I use Cisco VPN Client version 5.0.07.0290 and can normaly connect.
I don't use certificates.
I have selected IPSec over UDP (NAT / PAT).
I have Host, Group Name, Group Password, User Name, User Password which I must write in which edit box on android?
Few of you mention to use it already supports it. I tried to setup one with L2TP/IPSec PSK. Entered the server name. Which fields do you put the group username and password in?
Thanks in advance!
I'm using the IPSec XAuth PSK setup filling the IPSec identifier with group and IPSec pre shared key with the shared password. I didn't need to use the advanced section.
I just basically went through each setup option until I hit the right combination.
That worked! Thanks. Now is there a way to get around requiring a passcode to unlock the phone?
good god that was so much easier than setting up my transformer for this. thanks everyone for the guidance. Any idea if there's a widget that will just turn a specific vpn on/off?
I'm using a Cisco IPSEC VPN concentrator. with PSK auth.
I'm able to connect but i can't route any traffic.
When i connect from my desktop i use to get a /24 IP with a default gw, when connecting from my phone all i get is a /32 ip and no default gw
When using the Nexus 7 in a public wifi (hotel, restaurant, etc) what can one do for privacy and security?
Are there free vpn or other tools available?
Thanks.
What I meant to say was: which vpn is really trustworthy in Android and what else should one consider while on a public wifi?
Don't enter sensitive info, like your bank credentials.

I assume running your own VPN server isn't something you'd consider? You can use OpenVPN on your own system (it'll run on a Raspberry Pi) and use either the official app or one of the third party ones to connect. One of the third party ones even has Tasker integration so you could configure it to auto-launch when you connect to WiFi that isn't your own...

Then start learning. Public vpn operators are no more trustworthy than public wifi operators. Actually if you use one vpn in different public spots the vpn operator could collect much more data than each individual public wifi operator.
That's a very scary thought. Are you saying it is more dangerous than safe to use vpns?
I'm willing to learn. Where do I start? Any tutorial or guides available somewhere?

Nothing lol.
If you want to download some illegal kind of porn, the best way is not to do so from your device. Neither vpn or other tool will provide absolute security.
You'll find the OpenVPN site at http://openvpn.net/. They offer an Access Server package (under VPN Solution) which has a fully featured GUI for managing it. That is a commercial package, but it comes with 2 licenses for evaluation purposes...
Wireless network can also be an access point for hackers and other intruders who may infiltrate your computer or transmit a virus as most hotel wireless networks aren't password-protected or encrypted with strong WPA2.
I always secure my browsing session by using VPN connection however I don't suggest using free VPN at all as they more likely to log your activities and serve contextual ads while you're connected. They're also more likely to use your usage habits to tailor future ads to you, have fewer exit locations, and weak commitments to privacy so if logging and privacy are important to you, you may want to avoid them. I personally subscribed to purevpn.com but you can find many similar companies by doing some googling.
Hi,
I'm in France and trying to set up a VPN client on the Fire TV.
The only decent I've found on the store is VPNroot which won't connect and display a "socket address family" error.
I'm using Boxpn service which works great on my desktop/mobiles.
Anyone succeeded in setting a VPN client on the ftv ?

Not yet. I have tried HMA and vyprVPN the apps crash when connecting to a server. You could do what I did and install DD-WRT on your router, granted your router is compatible. It works great for me and a have everything behind that router protected by the VPN
Yes i'm working on the router side too, but still thinks it'd be great to have the client running on the FTV itself.

I'm afraid, Fire TV OS is not particularly receptive to VPN usage however, if your router supports DD-WRT firmware, it's a good news because DD-WRT has the option of selecting different VPN configurations like: PPTP, L2TP or OpenVPN and Once configured, users on the network don’t need to enter a log in process when they need to activate the VPN. It just starts automatically, so any device connects automatically and easily, giving you all the benefits of using a reliable VPN service.

Care to share how you configured the two networks? I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but can't find a reliable guide to do so.
I have two routers - both configured with dd-wrt. I find that when I plug my second router (w/vpn) into the first's LAN port, I can never get a connection to pass through. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

actually, i have one router for my "usefull" network wich is configured as a gateway (you can use your internet box too). The other is configured as a vpn connected client, connected on the first, making a network for devices that need to be connected to the USA. I use purevpn and they have good tutorials for tomato or ddwrt and other kind of routers.
I also have a NAS with two ethernet ports... each connected on a different network, so it can be available from the fire tv and my computer

Thanks for clarifying. I think I got it working on my end by configuring the 2nd router to use the first router's IP address as the gateway and local DNS server. Still not my preferred option (waiting for the PIA android app to function by itself), but it will work for now. Cheers.
wouldnt it be better to just load up DDWRT on a router and configure your vpn from there?

There is a thread on reddit that explains both using the OpenVPN client directly on FireTV or split-routing setup.
Here is the link to use the OpenVPN client natively on FireTV:
reddit.com/r/fireTV/comments/2b4hlh/finally_got_vpn_working/
Here is the link to use OpenVPN on the router and selectively route traffic over the tunnel for the FireTV:
reddit.com/r/fireTV/comments/2b4hlh/finally_got_vpn_working/cjwup38
I'm sure you can adapt the instructions to suit dd-wrt. And if you can't, maybe you should switch over to OpenWRT.
P.s. I'm a lurker so I cannot generate links until I've posted 10 times. Maybe a mod can do it, or someone else can repost it, or better yet, transcribe the instructions.

I was able to get a split tunnel up and running on an ASUS RT-N66U router running Merlin Firmware. The VPN in Merlin is basically a port of OpenVPN in the tomato firmware implementation. The first step is to create the VPN tunnel and then you can setup the separate routes. For Private Internet Access (PIA). I used the following instructions to setup the tunnel:
https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/110/updated-tomato-setup-for-newer-branches-including-tomatousb/p1
Next I followed the instructions on this page for setting up a separate route for my FireTv. With this configuration my AFTV goes through the VPN tunnel and everything else goes through the normal Wan to my ISP. I followed the following instruction. Look at page 2 of the post for the instructions by WIZIN
http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9311&highlight=split
This is tailored for ASUS routers, but the idea should not be too difficult to implement on and dd-wrt o tomato firmware.
For me this is a much cleaner solution than running something on the AFTV. It starts up and shuts down with the router, so I don' have worry about restarting it when I reboot on the AFTV or it using CPU and memory on the AFTV.
Please help

"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.
