[How To] Free OpenVPN Connection on Xperia X10

So this is my 2nd Thread ... I know a lot of people use their Xperia X10 to surf through the WEB and i'm sure that like me a lot of you also have problems due some sites being blocked or unable to perform certain downloads. My problem is the Second; I can't download from almost any host (Megaupload, Hotfile, Rapidshare...) because my career has set up the same IP address to all Mobile Phones...
To avoid this issue i was using EvoVPN and it was good until 2 weeks ago when the service was shut down. Anyways i've read a lot and probably This has been post before but i found a way to have FreeVPN services working in our beloved X10s....
What do you need?
1. Have SuperUser Access (ROOT).
2. Install Busybox from within the Android Market (Version 1.17).[Mandatory]
UPDATE!!!
[*] Added Tun.ko Working for Android 2.3.3 Update.. Thanks to gergnz
HERE!!
3. Download and unzip this file in the root of your SDCARD
3.1Dropbox
3.2Mirror Mediafire
4. Install OpenVPN Settings from within the Android Market.
5. Install Android Terminal Emulator from within the Android Market.
Procedure:
1. Open Android Terminal Emulator and issue the following Commands:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox insmod /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/openvpn
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/tun.ko
chmod 700 /system/xbin/openvpn
mkdir /system/xbin/bb
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/ifconfig
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/route
busybox mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/chargemon /system/bin/chargemon
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/busybox /system/bin/busybox
reboot
* Note the last two lines are useful only if you have Xrecovery Installed because it needs this busybox version to work, you can skip it if you don't use Xrecovery....
2. Open VPN Settings and press Menu-->Advanced
3. Check the "Load tun Kernel module" checkbox
4. In TUN module settings select: insmod ; and the path to run module should be: /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
5. Path Configurations should be: /sdcard/openvpn
6. Path to openvpn binary should be: /system/xbin/openvpn
7. Back
8. Click on OpenVPN
9. Select freeopenvpn.ovpn
10. This should automatically assign you an IPAddress and you'll be set to use freevpn services.
NOTES!! Please READ BEFORE POSTING/Asking
Thanks to alx5962 for compiling the TUN.KO module!!!
1. Whenever you connect to freeopenvpn.ovpn the web browser will redirect you to http://www.freeopenvpn.com in order to activate the service, you just need to click on the linck and you'll be set.
2. If you don't click on that you won't be able to transfer any data either over WIFI or 3G
3. It's not always but if you can't load the http://www.freeopenvpn.com webpage after clickin on it,please wait while the phone is trying to comunicate with the server, it can take up to 5 Minutes :S but it will eventually load
4. After the webpage loads you'll be redirected to their site but you can start browsing using the assigned IP Address.
5. EVERY time you close the VPN connection and you login again the phone/server will request the process stated above.
6. If you find this useful you can always use the Thanks button and buy me a beer.... HERE

xRecovery stopped work (Android 2.1 : 2.0.2.A.0.24 - zdzihu ROM). About the SE ROM, I don't know.

5. EVERY time you close the VPN connection and you login again the phone/server will request the process stated above.
Does it mean:
1. Whenever you connect to freeopenvpn.ovpn the web browser will redirect you to http://www.freeopenvpn.com in order to activate the service, you just need to click on the linck and you'll be set.
2. If you don't click on that you won't be able to transfer any data either over WIFI or 3G

4. After the webpage loads you'll be redirected to their site but you can start browsing using the assigned IP Address.
Or the procedure above, where we need to type in all the command?
I get error when issuing the first line of command. Permission denied

Is it possible to select the country of origin where the server resides? ie always use the United States?
Could this be a workaround to use Google Voice?

You can change it only if you open an account on www.openvpn.net probably you can select other countries/locations.
As per GVoice i don´t think this could help since GVoice is bases specially on your Gmail Account so if your Gmail Account is not registered within the US this won´t work.

It work using my home wifi. But when I used my school wifi, it doesnt work. After pressing the active server, it load for a while then after that they show page could not be displayed.
My school is blocking other server application such as MSN Talk, Go facebook Chat, Pocket legend etc.

can this give me free internet service?

Works great, I did full wipe, no Google Apps FC now
thnx

Will this work on xperia x8? thanks!

Is there anyway to by-pass proxy server? our workplace have a proxy server which you need to set before getting through to any webpage.
the X10 (Adroid 2.1) does't support proxy.

pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee

GingerZaraki Bugs List & Solutions

OK LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT FOR YA!
You were probably thinking how this thread is much similar to my GDX Bugs List & Solutions thread. Trust me... for these ROMs, I would compare them to the following ways:
GingerDX - Feature Complete
GingerZaraki - Lightspeed!!
See this thread passed on by original creator Lloir, then to SpyderX, and now to me. Basically this thread is showing all the bugs that appeared in GingerZaraki. So dont ever go off topic in here. I am being serious here.
I want to say thank you to my great buddy RohinZaraki for this amazing ROM!! You ROCKKKKKKKKKK!
................................................
WHY MUST YOU USE THIS ROM??
................................................
- Very speedy ROM that will make your jaws drop!
- Frequent updates!
- Almost all of the bugs in this ROM are just minor bugs.
- Perfect for people looking for good battery life so they could msg their girlfriends (or boyfriends) more...
- So, are you interested? I bet you are... try out now!!
OFFICIAL THREAD
- Also, we are helping people in the IRC channel, [email protected], so we could do with some more helpers
................................................
MY GOAL!!
................................................
This is the exact same thing I wrote in another threas because I really really want to emphasize it. So dont complain.
Before you continue into the next part, please READ HERE!
Of course, my goal is to provide help to people who are having problems with bugs and installation. If you reading this now, please sticky this to your brain cells:
- Ask your questions here, rather than spamming the GingerZaraki thread!! I understand that Rohin gets very annoyed for reading stupid posts...
................................................
BUGS LIST & SOLUTIONS...
...............................................
(X) means confirmed.
(?) means not confirmed.
................................................
:: v10 FINAL Bugs ::
................................................
WiFi:
Believe me, when I say that WiFi issues are present on all ROMs. Let's face it, I've personally never encountered a ROM with WiFi as stable as that of stock 2.1, but let's deal with it. Remember: Custom ROMs are NOT perfect so don't be picky.
WiFi stays on: "Connecting...", but nothing is happening. (X)
Solution: Erase all saved networks, then connect again.
WiFi turns off when I lock screen. (X)
Solution: Not actually a bug, just go into WiFi settings --> Advanced --> Set sleep policy to never.
WiFi connects but doesn't allow data transfer. (X)
Solution: As there are many possible causes to this problem, try the following:
1. Make sure that your firewall/iptables settings are not blocking the WiFi.
2. Ensure that your router is functional and correctly routing internet traffic.
3. Enter the browser and load a few pages. If there is a login screen, LOGIN as that's the problem.
4. Disconnect and reconnect again.
5. Reconfigure your router (factory reset your router) -- ESPECIALLY MAKE SURE THAT MAC FILTERING ISN'T BLOCKING YOUR PHONE.
6. Try different types of encryption.
7. Complete reinstall of GZR.
WiFi tethering -- whole host of potential problems. (X)
Solution: Use a 3rd party app from the Play Store to tether instead.
WiFi shows "Error". (X)
Solution: This has many possible causes. Check the below:
1. Make sure you flashed Alfs FOR CM7, not the GDX version.
2. Make sure you did flash the Alfs addon.
3. Make sure you full-wiped.
3. Reflash kernel and GZR.
................................................
Kernel Issues:
Now 2 kernels are GZR-supported-- Alfs-CM7 kernel v8a/ v9a & nAa 14 (Though Alfs v8a is recommended because of kernel bugs). Each version has its pros and cons. So see below..
Auto brightness on AlfsV09a with Cypress digitizer is not working even after using the autobrightness fix both dt and no_dt. (X)
Solution: Do the same thing as above again, but this time, using Alfsv8.
Occasionally the screen has a problem in which it is shifted to the right. (X)
Solution: Don't overclock or don't OC to 691MHz. Then reboot.
Screen-cut (Alfsv9a) {Hitachi screens only} What happens is that the screen looks glitched up/distorted. (X)
Solution: Lock and unlock your phone OR revert back to Alfsv8a.
Reboot when plugging in phone to the computer in USB debugging mode and related stuff. (X)
Solution: Flash Alfsv9a OR revert back to Alfsv8a.
In call proximity sensors are not working on Alfs v9a. (X)
Solution: Flash the LibSensors patch from Alfs kernel thread.
Brightness setting is not working on Alfs v9a. (X)
Solution: Switch to Alfs V08a.
................................................
Others:
Screenshot will force close after a few times doing it, or sometimes directly. (X)
Solution: Try enabling Share Screenshots setting in Settings > Cyanogenmod Settings > Interface.
................................................
Notice:
1. Please don't blame me for not listing any bugs here. Please report and confirm bugs here. Bear it in mind, you are not helping me, you are helping everyone that have a X8/W8 and using GingerZaraki! Please read second post (courtesy to SpyderX) before posting.
2. No spam please! This thread is only for reference, I'm not asking Rohin to fix anything at all.
3. GingerZaraki... the lightest ROM I ever experienced... Please subscribe for future updates.
4. Hit the THANKS button to support me!!
................................................

Oh and for dummies:
Use the app aLogcat from Market to get your LOGCAT.
To get the logcat in a text file called logcat.txt on your sdcard, type this commands in terminal emulator
Code:
su
cat /dev/log/system > /sdcard/logcat.txt
And for a dmesg, here is the code to enter in terminal emulator:
Code:
su
cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
Any questions about GingerZaraki, attach and post both the logcat and the dmesg here along with a detailed description of your problem and any tweaks you have added etc. Refer to first post.

well im so sorry for making a typo

Thanks for this will link it to the OP

Proximity Sensor & A2SD Settings
Updated to version 4 of this great rom with Alfs v8a.(i did a clean install; full wiped before installing new version) I had following problems:
1) Proximity sensor was not working. I had to flash Libsensors available with alfs kernell.
2) Could not fond a2sd settings in location where they were is previous versions:
i.e. Cyanogenmod sett..>Performance> A2sd settings
the apps not going to sd-ext partition. In previous version of the rom, all apps moved automatically to sd-ext and my internal phone memory remained unchanged.
Please let me know your opinion regarding this.

Rohin maight have forgotten to add in some code that he normally does. It appears that the a2sd script is not in your current ROM.
Check if there is a file called a2sd in /system/xbin/ or /system/bin

I have checked and found "a2sd" file in system/bin. File not found in system/xbin

Go into terminal emulator and type:

This will restore a2sd on your phone (I hope ).

Ok I did this and then a reboot. More internal memory now available BUT the apps in internal memory are no longer available like Google play store is not available now. The apps that i previously moved to SD card manually are available. How to restore play store?

Flash gapps for gingerbread, search on Google for it. This is strange as play store is meant to be in /system/app, not internal storage (/data/app)

[TUT]How to install Nokia , Samsung ,HTC app on any Device

Hi , I foun an easy and simple way to Browse and download from market as a third-party device.
I just translate and arrange this
Source:http://www.windowsmania.pl/poradnik...rketu-jako-urzadzenie-innego-producenta-5114/
In response to the two other guides I decided to improve them and make them an easy and quick way to installation of any application from the collection of another manufacturer. I'm not here for the fun of change application ID and connect via USB. The guide (if no one is angry) I used some screenshots of the other instructions on this board go:
TOOLS:
Download and install Fiddler:
Code:
Code:
http://fiddler2.com
And Folow:
1-Go to Tools -> Fiddler options -> Connections and select as below
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2-Close and Run the program again.
3-Press start+r then enter: Ipconfig
to know what is your IP
4-Enter the WiFi settings on your phone and click on the active WiFi connection (same on you pc , not 3G)
Edit it and type in the IP read the above paragraph and the port number 8888
Then Save Settings
5-Open the store from you mobile.
6-From PC ,on Fiddler'a with the active window Press Ctrl + R ,(it will open the notebook), press Ctrl + F and paste:
Code:
OnBeforeRequest (oSession: Session) {
The location shown in the screenshot paste the contents of the subsidiary as of the manufacturer to browse Market
Code:
if (oSession.uriContains ("Nokia"))
{
oSession.url = oSession.url.Replace ("Nokia", "Samsung");
}
Save changes to the file and close Notepad.
>>First is your phone manufacture and second is manufacture you want to use it's app.
7-Open store and search for the app you want , and once you opened the instal page , leave it and go to wifi setting page and remove the proxy configration , then go to app instal page and click install and have fun.

This is actually same solution as Nokia Portal and Proxy from Reker,
still thanks for the tut's, at least now people who don't have chance to grab nokia portal app & don't want to use proxy from reker can do this by themself...

your (tut) is missing the last step
you must turn off proxy sitting from wifi page before app download or it will give error
and I mention the link for source clearly before write any thing
any way thanks' for ur efforts

After starting fiddler you need to open a command prompt as admin on your pc, type "ipconfig" and lookup the ipv4 local adress.
Now install "sysapp pusher" from the market.
Open wifi settings, enable proxy and fill in the ipv4 adress you've looked up before + the port you set fiddler to (change it in fiddler settings to something like 1309)
Now click on your phone the "confirm" button in order to save the proxy.
in the attachments i have a pic with everything explained.
Open sysapp pusher and try to install some apps. Not all of them work but a lot of them do.
On case you're using a lumia 520 for example; Nokia camera beta *will* work, the normal one doesn't.

For lumia 520 app Camera beta work without proxy. I know because installed to 520 without problem.

Troubleshooting and Pulling LogCats
For anyone who isn't really comfortable pulling dmsg or last_kmsg logs from their phones needs to download and use this app: SysLog
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog
One button click and it will pull 4 logs for you and zip them all up in one small package:
dmsg
last_kmsg
logcat
Modem log
You can then get that to the dev to go through and look for errors.

What have you done to try to fix? Have you reset your router at all? Are there any other networks you can try to connect to in order to rule out some issues? Are you still able to get Network Data if you turn off wifi? We need more info when you post these issues in order to help you.

What I am seeing is the MAC address is getting changed every reboot. I have verified this. This may be causing other issues as well with Wifi related modules.
I wonder if this would work?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2347060
For mac address:
- In /persist directory create wifi directory. In the new directory create a file named .macaddr (don't miss the dot!)
Edit the file and put 12 random hex numbers in it (0-9, A-F), save.
- Set execute and read permissions for everybody on /persist/wifi directory and change owner of .macaddr to wifi:wifi and permission to 660 (read/write for owner and group and nothing else).
In command line:
Code:
chown root:root /persist/wifi
chmod 755 /persist/wifi
chown wifi:wifi /persist/wifi/.macaddr
chmod 660 /persist/wifi/.macaddr
- run /system/bin/conn_init program. Can be run in root explorer(choose Linux Script Handler when you open it), or in adb shell:
Code:
su
/system/bin/conn_init
Then reboot and check if the changes got applied in settings
I cant get my original one back but at least I have a static MAC.

It is D800 AT&T. I remember Nexus 4 having a similar issue. The link I posted was a fix for that. I doubt I will get my Origional MAC back, but I did backup my EFS. So, once a fix is in place, I should be able to restore.
Oh, Thank Goodness for Reserved MAC address in my router, I was able to get my old MAC from there. So, if need be, I can change it back.

D800 mute not functioning?
Hi, thanks to everyone involved in developing this custom ROM. It generally works really well.
I wondered if someone that has an AT&T G2 and has the ROM installed could verify whether the phone mute works?
It currently highlights and acts as if it works, but doesn't actually mute the microphone.
Thanks!

AT&T D800 - GPS not working either...
Couldn't get a location in Google Maps.

FWIW, I'm able to get one without a problem.

Since I have no desire to clog the enormous Dev thread, I will ask here:
Anyone know if there will be any plans to port this work over to CM11?

Mine is flawless...I had this one time on an earlier build. Flashed back to a stock nandroid, got GPS lock, then reflashed the ROM with clean install. Been perfect, accurate and fast since.

Mute button works fine for me. Just cussed out a fellow employee who heard none of it and I'm still gainfully employed!

[Guide] Enable LTE Icon on Unrooted Mate 9

Hey guys, rather than make an article for what I feel is a minor change, I decided to just post a quick thread on this.
Some users have reported that despite the fact that they have LTE service, their phone does not show the LTE icon in the status bar. This is because Huawei uses your Mobile Country Code (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code) to determine whether or not to show LTE. All you have to do is edit a system property and add your MCC. For example, I'm in the U.S. so my MCC is 310.
First download the ADB binaries (https://www.xda-developers.com/google-releases-separate-adb-and-fastboot-binary-downloads/) and get the drivers for your own (Hisuite: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html). Next open up a command prompt and type the following:
adb shell settings get system hw_show_lte
This should be a semi-colon separated list of MCCs. By default my Mate 9 only had the value of 260 (Poland), so I had to edit it to add U.S. as such:
adb shell
And then type (for some reason if you combine the two commands it doesn't work):
settings put system hw_show_lte "260;310"
Try that and see if it works. I did this trick a while back so I don't remember if it's the MCC or the MNC (mobile network code) that has to be input lol, but try either and it should work. I've been using my European Mate 9 in the U.S. and it shows LTE for me after I did this trick.

It's also in the cust folder in the local.prop file you can change it to true to have the icon show 4GLTE.

That requires root access doesn't it? This method doesn't.

Hey there thanks again! But when I try to enter your input I get /system/bin/sh: 220: not found and when I enter just adb shell settings get system hw_show_lte it shows 260.
hmm what could be the issue

Very interesting. For some reason when you combine "adb shell" and "settings put system hw_show_lte" it doesn't work. Do this instead and it will work:
Type
adb shell
to enter the shell. Then type
settings put system hw_show_lte "260;310"
This should work. I edited my OP to reflect this change.

it seems like it worked now, no errors shown, I restarted my phone but however still no 4G icon as shown below:

This change doesn't add a 4g LTE icon to the quick tiles. It adds the icon to the status bar.

Oh, you misunderstood me then. Sorry for troubling you all the way. I was talking about that icon in notifications tile how you called it. I unlocked my phone from c66 to c432 on c66 I had it, now on c432 it's non-existant.

Oooo...will give this a try and get back to you. I am in US on AT&T network...I thought I would get LTE by default, but only showing 4G. I have the L29C185B138 international version...

Thank you!!! Worked like a charm!! I'm on AT&T and now I can see LTE instead of 4G in my status bar!! Great find!

I don't get people 4G and LTE is the same thing just different names.

Agreed! But when you're used to seeing 'LTE' instead of '4G', it helps that there's a way to bring it back... [emoji12] [emoji12]

Glad it worked for you. This trick makes 0 difference in functionality, but for some people the lack of an LTE icon is jarring.

When I run "adb shell settings get system hw_show_lte" I just got the answer "null".
Is it save to continue and run the next command? In my case will be something like:
settings put system hw_show_lte "226"

Hey Mishaal I sent you a PM but I don't think you are reading those so I'll ask here
I spoke with your about LTE shell and I'm aware that you are very good with adb shell commands. So wanted to ask is it possible to change this option without rooting with adb shell?
The correct path is /system/emui/lite/prop/local.prop and you have to set ro.build.hw_emui_lite.enable=false
I tried with adb shell settings put system hw_emui_lite false via cmd but it doesn't work :/ If someone has experience with ADB write here
EDIT 1: adb shell settings put system hw_emui_lite.enable false - doesn't wor
