I currently use Samsung Galaxy S2 + 3200mah Mugen battery with 4.4.2 and extensively use OpenVPN client on the phone to connect to my own VPN servers.
LG G3 is shaping up to be my next next upgrade (only 2nd ever smart phone, S2 was my first).
But was wondering any LG G3 users use OpenVPN client or native VPN and whether there's any issues ?
cheers
No issues at all... I use native VPN to connect to the servers at work. Moreover I found the app VpnCilla which allows to use VPN with knock code and without further security settings like pin or password.

Just got a D855 (Kitkat 4.4.2) here in Germany as a replacement for my iPhone4s. Can't connect anymore to my VPN (LPT2/IPSEC) with stock app. Both iPhone and laptop connect OK ... Not rooted yet.
Using openVPN with no issues at all. Just consider the closed booloader when u buy it.

Hey everyone, just wondering is there is a way to tether via USB using wifi as the source of internet?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
Yes there is. It's built into the system settings (At least for ICS).

It's called internet pass through I think.

clarification
Do you mean for the PC to tether though the andriod? if that is the case you may need to use something like EasyTether.
Yea, I want to hook a PC up that doesn't have wireless capabilities so I can use wifi on it. I'm running AOKP, I haven't tried to hook it up yet to see if it comes with this rom.

OK just an update, hooked my phone up to my PC and hit USB tether at the settings UI is force closing
EDIT: Using Easy Tether, I have internet but its intermittent and a little slow, but its a start.

There is an app on the Play Store called "Open Garden." It enables Wi-fi tethering on 3G or Wi-Fi for Free.
Before I had Ice Cream Sandwich and was rooted, I always used PDANet, it works great on both Mac and PC! If it isn't in the Play Store anymore, i'm sure you could find the .apk somewhere online. Best of luck!
Hello i have a sprint galaxy s III and i was wondering if anyone has had success tethering a sprint phone to the nexus 7? My phone is not rooted, i would like to keep it that way if at all possible. I use FoxFi and PDA Net and it does connect to my Nexus 7, but for internet only. Google play will not update apps, facebook will not work, Netflix won't work, ect. I tried open garden, FoxFi (by itself), PDA Net (by itself) and nothing else connects. What is everyone else using??? Thanks in advanced!
Well I`m using foxfi and it works very well for me. I`m living in uk.

I tried out foxfi today for the first time. It seems pretty good, but I would like to here others suggestions as well.

That doesn't really answer the OP's post though. FoxFi doesn't look like a real internet connection to all apps though. Is there another app that does any better?

If I understand this right your wanting to connect your N7 to the internet via your G3, if so cannot you just use the mobile access point on the phone, i have the galaxy s and my sister has the S2, both have this options in the settings and once set up and turned on acts just like a wireless router, select it and enter the password on your N7 and your away.. works well on mine

I've never tried it, but how about PDAnet?
Foxfi Wifi Hotspot no longer works on my nonrooted Droid Bionic. I can only tether via blueetooth, which doesn't allow all of my apps to work correctly. Does anyone know of a Foxfi alternative?
My Foxfi works fine on droid x to my nexus 7. I don't know what you're talking about not a real connection....
Check it out though, foxfi is definitely awesome.

After taking a trip to the darkside for a year or so (IFail), I decided to rejoin the force by purchasing the Optimus G, mainly for wifi-tethering and more control over my actual phone. I can connect my phone just fine to my Mac (the Optimus appears under devices in airport), but cannot get my Kindle, nor my X-Box to connect to the wifi. Is this an ad-hoc vs. infrastructure connection issue?
Can anybody help with this issue?

Not sure I can help with your ways, but Wireless Tether, from the Playstore, works good for me. You have to have root. Settings are; ics/jb generic, wlan0.

Most wireless tether apps use ad-hoc, which only works for PCs and PSPs it seems like. The built in version you pay for works on some phones like my old evo, but we hack to unlock that first to not pay. I will check it out when I get the chance and see if I can do the same thing.

Having problems connecting my PS4 to my mobile hotspot, I have a Tmo note 3 but currently using MetroPCs. I don't have the hotspot with my service so I tether Hotspot with the widget and use it that way (For free) but the main problem is using my PS4 with it, My ps4 is able to obtain IP Address and have interne access but the PSN sign-in always fail, So I called up sony and told them my problem and they said something about Port forwarding or something like that and they gave me a website with the ports I need to access the PSN is there anyway I can port forward off a mobile hotspot?
After you set up your settings on the ps4, sign in to psn. Then try and test again. Happened to me, and I thought it was my internet connection. But it was bcuz I didnt sign into psn after I saved all my network settings.
