Browser - Mobile View

HI. I've an italian customized GT540, and recently updated to 2.1 European version.
I'm trying to disable "mobile view" in browser options. But... it's not present in Browser Menu --> Other --> Settings
I need to disable it, to connect mobile website of my bank... wich is not correctly dispalyed with that option "on".
I've tryied also with "about:debug" method, to change UAString but nothing.
Recently, LG updated his customized firmware to 2.1. On other forum, i've asked to people with this fw and also in italian version, the "mobile view" option is unavailable.
How can i solve?
(Bank website is mobile.fineco.it - Can u try to display that website...?)

open the lg hidden menu
browser utility>change UA script to mozilla>back>disable xwap profile. reboot n it should work.
i tried using the same with facebook, it assumed that my phone was internet explorer 6 and i need to update to a newer version.
it still wont run flash
u can play with with the ua string to fool the website.

Thanks, i'll try.
But this method enable the "mobile view" in Settings, or only change the UA String of browser?

Whats wrong with you? Just go to your provider and ask about your settings or use google to find it. Anyway this is a Samsung Galaxy 3 forum not HTC.

The whole world?
It doesn't have the whole world bro, there are no regional carriers in that list. I dont see any Cellular Ones or Cincinnati Bells in there.

Thanks so much. It's great and work with me.

OpenVPN?

The N7 just got delivered. I immediately and successfully unlocked and rooted, thanks to Wugs (thanks Wugs!). Now I need to figure out how to connect to my VPN provider who uses OpenVPN and .ovpn config files. There are a few apps in the store, and I'm not sure which ones to install, or how to configure.
Thanks,
RF

I think Android supports VPN's (or at least it does in ICS) without the need of any 3rd-party apps, but then again I don't think I ever messed with OpenVPN.
If it means anything, I was able to connect to my own VPN I made with Windows 7 from ICS.

Install both OpenVPN apps from F. Schäuffelhut.
One is the binary, the other checks your setup and manages your tunnels.
You will also need busybox.
just tested all this today.

If a standard port etc, yes, this should just work.

If not on a standard port (like I have set up, so I can OpenVPN out of my work wifi), or an oddball configuration, it works out of the box, rooted of course. I was afraid of the TUN module/config but it was compiled in. Thanks Google

There is also another openvpn by schwabe that doesn't require you to install any binaries. You just need to copy the authentication cert files, edit the .ovpn file to include the correct cert files and the server and import the profile. If you're having trouble, i can write a small tutorial on how to do so. There are also other tutorials on how you can do it if you Google openvpn on Android tutorials/guides.

I used the OpenVPN apps from F. Schauffelhut. I copied the config files from my Windows PC setup, and edited the ovpn file. However I don't know how to store the login credentials as encrypted. The OpenVPN Settings from F.S. doesn't query the user for id/pw. It just fails. So I added "auth-user-pass pwd_file" entry into the ovpn file, but it's in plaintext.
I don't want to have to type the login each time, but I do want it encrypted. Can anyone provide some info here? I'm a noob with OpenVPN. TIA.
Edit: It is working right now, just that the login info is unencrypted.
BTW, here is my ovpn file:
Code:
client
dev tun
proto tcp
remote xxxxxxxxxxx ###
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca ca.crt
cert client.crt
key client.key
cipher BF-CBC
keysize 512
comp-lzo
verb 4
mute 5
tun-mtu 1500
mssfix 1450
auth-user-pass pwd_file
reneg-sec 0
route-method exe
route-delay 1 10
route-metric 512
route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

I believe you can encrypt the .cert files that are used by adding them to the credentials manager in settings-security. I haven't tried it so i can't confirm. Alternatively you could try an app that encrypts that folder so that it needs to be decrypted before use.

Thanks for the replies.
I went a different route, and it worked flawlessly: I made a folder in the N7 main directory (same place as Alarms, Music, etc..) called OpenVPN. Inside that, I placed a folder from my PC OpenVPN/config folder, that contained my ,ovpn file and the .crt files, etc. I then installed OpenVPN For Android from Arne Schwabe. Launching that app, and going into the 'Precious VPNs' option, allowed me to 'Import'. I navigated to the OpenVPN folder, and then the folder containing the VPN files. Highlighting the *.ovpn file and then hitting 'Select' has the app 'do it's thing'. When done, you hit finish/complete/done (forget what it was), and the VPN connection shows up in the list. Activating it and browsing to an IP check website, showed my VPN provider's exit IP. It was all easier than it looks by typing it.

PS. I also installed Orbot, and since I'm rooted, the 'Transparently Proxy All Applications' option. After also checking the option to use the N7's default IP Tables (this is not the default, the app tries to use it's built in binaries and it will fail on the N7) everything connected through Tor as well...so I have two options for browsing - VPN or Tor.
I love this device (rooted) !

Glad it worked out however remember that the app is also storing info in a file that can only be read by the app but it is still in plain text. The author of the app describes it in detail in the faq section. However it is much better than having to keep the files available in plain text at all times.

Vocera Application on CM10 or AOSP ROMs

I am required to use an application for hospital communication - it is a messaging app that takes the place of pagers. It is called Vocera -- it is available on the Playstore.
The problem that I'm having is that the app installs fine on both Sammy based and CM10 or AOSP ROMs but then you have to enter a server ip address and a registration key. The keys are one time use apparently so every time I try a new install our Sys Admin gets frustrated (they don;t care for rooted devices anyway).
On the CM10 or AOSP based ROMs the IP address for the server and Registration key seem to be accepted but don't "take" in that after they are entered and I press OK then the screen flashes and goes right back to the Registration page.
I have attached the log that was recorded during install of Vocera or VMP app and then the subsequent entry of the Registration.
Can anyone help with troubleshooting this app for use on AOSP based ROM's (or point me in the right direction)??
Also the other interesting thing is that if I do a Titanium Backup of the app then restore to a different ROM it doesn't maintain the Registration information -- I have to get a new key from the Sys Admin and re register the device. Does anyone know how to copy that registration information? Is there a hidden registry for Android OS's?
I have attached log and the files that are in the Titanium Backup folder for this app

No APN specified on device.

Anybody run into this error when sending or receiving mms? I'm on cm11 and this was never an issue until today.

Yes just started today for me as well. Seemed to have started with the latest nightly for my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2. I tried resetting APN, no dice. Tried using Hangouts instead of stock, no change. I also tried flashing the nightly from 3/3 & was stuck in boot loop....I'm out of ideas, hoping the next nightly fixes this as I find it EXTREMELY annoying!

Try the program elixir2 from play store.
use titanium backup or similar to move it to a "system app" --- if you don't move to system it cannot write the apn settings!!
then when you run elixir2,,, tap the top left button labled "information",,, then look for and tap "Telephony",,, then tap "APN settings"
edit or add proper setting and remember to then tap the '3 dots' and 'Save' your work,,,
mms function should now work if you have the proper /etc/apn-conf.xml file
... if you need it just grab one from a previously working mms ROM and overwrite the 'apn-conf.xml' file and set permissions

Thank you for your quick reply, hhp_211. I tried copying the etc/apns-config.xml from the 3/3 nightly (which had worked fine), changed permissions & rebooted....still that pesky 'No APN specified on device' error. I did figure out how to make the error disappear, I switched to Hangouts & did a force stop on the Messaging app. A temporary fix until I figure something else out...

Cool, the .xml would only be half off the fix though... You need to set the apn
If you have the voice dialer app you can also use that and speak "open APN's" to get to the settings menu

I've tried all these things to no success, but thank you. I just switched over to PAC-man and hae the same results. Then went back to stock touchwiz 4.3 and mms works fine. I figured maybe if I restore touchwiz and then restore cm11 over it then mms might work but it still doesn't. I guess this is a kitkat issue only. Seems every kitkat rom i've tried have the same issue(s).

I tried an APN setting I found on the internet, it didn't work. Not sure what it should be....at any rate using Hangouts isn't too bad. Thanks for the suggestions hhp!

Found a fix for Verizon here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2053705&page=3
Essentially, in the MMSC spot in APN settings you put:
http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=1234567890
REPLACE 1234567890 with the 10 Digit Phone # of the Device.
Did this by opening Elixir2 (thanks for turning me on to this hhp!), go to Information, Telephony, APN Settings. LTE - Verizon Internet is already selected. Tap on it, and change the MMSC there and SAVE.
Hope this helps someone else! THANK YOU 4MUSKRAT & hhp!
