I am not able to connect to VPN using StrongVPN on Nexus 7 but it works fine on my phone. Did anyone experience the same problem? I am using latest stock firmware, rooted.
I'm able to use my PIA vpn with no issues so far.

same here..my private internet access VPN works fine
I, too, have problems with VPN. With the builtin VPN clients I can't connect but if I download a third-party PPTP client (I know, I know, not secure... I should be using OpenVPN or L2TP...). Haven't tried a third-party OpenVPN client because I don't feel like setting up the lockscreen password.
To the guys using pia how do you get the port its using?

It's set to use a random port automatically for both local and remote. No issues so far.
It might be worth mentioning I'm using PIA's own vpn app from the play store. On my phone I did it manually and had no issues that way, but since I got the new nexus I've just been using their app.

Built-in vpn is not able to connect... Seems like only vpn apps works.
I can't get in built VPN connecting on a variety of protocols either, but the app works fine (private internet access). It works OK, but noticeable lag on Netflix when compared to my PC. Any ideas?

Hey guys,
Any suggestions or ideas on any remote desktop app or termimal server app ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Pocket Cloud if you want to hide what you are doing on the remote PC. No extra software required, just Remote Desktop turned on. Unpaid version is limited to 1 PC.
TeamViewer if you want what you are doing on the remote PC to be seen. Requires an ap to be running on PC in the background though. Free to use but you will get an annoying pop up message when exiting the program unless you connect using actual IP addresses.

Jump Desktop is the most amazing RDP program I've used on android. They have a free version which will work for most but I bought it just so it syncs after every flash plus to support the devs. Check it out.

I finally got my tether to work on the unlimited data plan BUT NOW I can't get my phone to work with my PS3 but the one issue I don't get is that it works completely fine on my Xbox 360, I am rooted, and I'm usuing WiFi Tether for Root users

Sorry couldn't help out in the other thread. I don't have a ps3 to do any trial and errors.
All good man I really appreciate the effort I'm just confused because my cousins Epic 4g Touch with the same tether app works fine with both my ps3 and Xbox 360 but my galaxy s2 only works on the Xbox and not my ps3

Can you tether a computer to your phone and use internet explorer? I am getting that same error. But I think it's due to T-Mobile blocking HTTP protocol.

You can't tether to your ps3.. AT ALL. The PS3 doesn't support ad-hoc which is what most tethering apps use. Try tethering with the built in tethering capabilities as they broadcast using AP instead of ad-hoc.

It has the option to use AP but these phones don't. They use adhoc. Try it for yourself. Windows will report an adhoc connection not an access point. Trust me I've been through this with my own ps3. I had to tether to my laptop and then use ICS through the Ethernet port.

I tethered to my cousins ps3 last night using built in tethering in dark side v8. It worked but T-Mobile caught onto it, sent me a text and blocked AP tethering since the ps3 doesn't support adhoc tetherig that was the end of the road for that venture lol
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Dude, dont use wifi tether for root users for this phone. Only does ad-hoc on this this device. Ps3 is very strict, only infrastructure network you can. Only the built in tethering works on ps3. I personally use infamous resurrection since the tether restriction was removed by the dev. I use it and haven't they haven't cut the plug yet like other roms.

Can you use the app Wifi Tether? I know I had issues with the JellyBean built in hotspot. It would work for my TF700 but not for my windows laptop.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
You have a couple of options. They are detecting it based on your user agent coming from your computer browser. If you use Chrome, just download any of these user agent switchers, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/user-agent switcher, and switch to some version of Safari.
Most mobile browsers send Safari as part of their string, so you should be able to use it without a problem. I am looking into a proxy on the phone that is easy to set up, and then you won't have to do this workaround. I will update here if I can.
Please thank me if this works.

Again, if user agent isn't the problem -which it obviously is not if you are tethering to another android device- try wifi-tether or another 3rd party app as opposed to the stock hotspot app. Wifi tether works fine for me.

The reason why you're being blocked is because your on the unlimited data plan with T-mobile you don't have access to WiFi tether on the unlimited data you can switch to one that's not unlimited high speed and you'll get your tether back.

Another vote for HideMyAss or StrongVPN as it has both PPTP and OpenVPN with county selection.

Been using WiTopia for the past couple years. $69/year for multiple servers, unlimited bandwidth and pptp+l2tp+openvpn. If you want only one of the protocols,, they have cheaper plans available as well.
For app, you can manually add it in the vpn section or you can get the openvpn app from the market and set it up to use openvpn as well. There are several guides you can find on configuring openvpn on Android.

I have a plain Stock Rom on my thread, on the 3rd post, and follow directions, its not Rooted, and the tether works fine, i'm using it as we speak,
if you want it rooted, just flash chainfires superuser..
but if you mean you want it on your plain stock rom, it won't work, you need to do some edits on a few files.
look on my signature, it will lead u there. :good:
