My oppo N1 running CM11 M8, one of my major problem is the useless of VPN. I used many third apps to connect to VPN, and always failed to connect. Even, if suddenly connected, I couldn't access Google play as the connection become very slow. I need VPN mainly to connect to Google play store, as it restricted in my region.
How to fix
I use hotspot to connect to VPN in CM11, although it connected and the hot spot go green, nothing happened and the Google play become blank.
Then I tried to close the full protection within the hotspot shield app, its icon become blue ( see photo) and lastly I can access Google play. Not sure what happened but I googled my problem earlier and found that the VPN issue is common since android 4.4.2..

I have a weird WIFI issue only at work, Android Market cannot download apps or games.
I can browse the internet, and look at news, weather, google etc just fine.
Sometimes the internal Mail app also gives a error saying it cannot connect. but the Gmail app is fine.
I have an orange 500 MB connection, and only got my phone yesterday. i calculate using 100MB in a day over 3g already Worrying.
Ok, got it.. Proxy issue.
I wonder if it is possible to go the other way to tethering, use the PC's internet connection on the phone? I could do that with activesync. hmm.
Only certain ports are allowed over wireless where I work, so market doesn't work for me either.
I got HTC desire, when I’m at home using Wi-Fi I can download apps with no problems, I also can download apps when I’m connected to Mobile network BUT when I’m at work I use Wi-Fi at work I cant download any apps at all, it just queues up!!! But I can access the internet and emails fine!!!
p.s I also checked the wireless router at work (firewall isn’t blocking it) also my work colleague also using HTC and he can download fine etc..
Thanks

How many files did you try? Maybe the one you were trying was the problem?
just log in with google talk and you can download.
I don't think it'll let you download from the Market if it says you've got low disk space, if that's the case
Last night I updated my Tablet S to release 5 and saw that it came with a new app Xperia Link. This app allows the tablet to link to certain Xperia phones and use the phones connection. I first tried to download from Play Store and got the message that I couldn't download from either my area or provider. Did a bit of searching and found the apk in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895345
I installed the apk and it installed a new Wi-Fi Hotspot. This hotspot works through bluetooth so I paired my phone to my Win 7 computer and then from the bluetooth device screen selected the Connect Using -> Access Point.
Works great with one exception. I can't use my corp VPN desktop software seems ports are blocked. Will try phone VPN setup next. With the 4G connection the download speed is faster than my TW home connection.
are you on international ics? i tried installing and running and it said device unsupported for tethering?
It didn't work for me either, I am using the AT&T stock rom rooted.

Hello everyone! getting directly into the problem which is VPN i had this issue on other devices too like HTC One X, HTC Butterfly S and now the One M8 here what its like:
-Setup vpn account (PPTP or IPSEC)
-Connect to VPN
-VPN connects successfully.
- it will take less than one minute for it to stop connectivity and you will end up with an idle connection but it wont drop. nothing is loading and vpn data shows slow transfer.
searching for this issue i see other devices which are running 4.3 and 4.4 having this issue too. some claimed its fixed in android L but when i switched to GPE 5.0.1 to try it its still there.
tried several vpn servers and OPENvpn too all suffer from there same issue. the only VPN app worked was Private Tunnel i guess but its not free and it limits you to their VPN service and you wont be able to use the app to connect to other VPN servers from other providers....
if you dont know anything about the fix please just report if you device can connect and USE VPN without any problem and report along with : - S-ON or S-OFF
- LOCKED-UNLOCKED
- STOCK or CUSTOM ROM
Thanks! :good:
Hello,
I'm facing this issue that YouTube play store and other few apps like paytm do not work on mobile data(YouTube works fine in chrome), but they work fine when I'm connected to WiFi (any WiFi works, even hotspot created from other phone using same mobile operator)
When I open YouTube it gets stuck on loading and after sometime asks to check my network. If I want to use YouTube in app I have to connect to any WiFi network and launch YouTube app which loads within 2,3 seconds. After I do that even if I disconnect WiFi and start using mobile data for the app it works perfectly.
I tried few things when I was searching solution for this but couldn't find solution.
I also tried different rom and other network it doesn't load.
Currently I'm on RRemix 8.1.
Thanks in advance
