[Q] Connected to VPN but canot browse (I-9505 on Kitkat) - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I recently updated my Galaxy S4 I-9505 from 4.2.2 to Kitkat thru Kies. I have a VPN subscription with Boxpn.com. Before updating to 4.4.2 the VPN used to work flawlessly. But after the update the VPN connects but no bytes get transferred. I cannot browse at all. I have tried stock browser, Chrome and Firefox. I've checked the settings. They are same as before when it was working on 4.2.2. I have tried different servers provided by BoxPN but all f them end up in getting connected but no browsing takes place.
I'm banging my head here guyz any help would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks.

Try entering your dns manually.
Or you can use the dns of opendns or google
google = 8.8.8.8

Forgot to mention. I have tried 3 DNS. Mine(Dubai), BoxPN DNS and Google DNS. But still the same.
Gets connected, Doesnt browse. Even performed a factory reset ( VPN is that important to me) but still no use

Any result ?

Google Nexus One VPN problems

Hi, All
I have a VPN problem that is strange. Here goes:
I have my Nexus One two days ago. It's not rooted and no APK installed on it.
At that time, the VPN worked very well.
Then, I unlocked and rooted it. Then I flashed a Pandora Firmaware. The firmware is here.
://d.epis.me/Pandora%20N%201.1%20for%20nexus.zip
After that, the VPN didn't work. I must wait for a long time after I started to connect, and an error message came out like this: "Can not connect to the server". If I use a wrong password, the VPN will tell me the pssword is wrong. The same VPN server can be connected by same username and password on my laptop, but not Nexus One. It is very strange.
Then I restored the original shipping firmware. It didn't work too. The reply of the VPN is the same as above.
The server is uk.focusvpn.com, and VPN type is PTPP. Encryption type I selected encryped and not encrypted, it didn't work on both.
Now the VPN on my Nexus One is totally broken. Can any good guy help me?

oh well on focusvpn, u just need uncheck enable encryption , and save , reboot then it will work. if it still not work, u can try type 8.8.8.8 for dns address on vpn setting section..
i just noticed android doesn't support mppe encryption 2 days ago, so if there is any vpn need ppptd+mppe vertify then i won't work. that's all. u can try to diag by using ddms
Thank u very much. I just find the reason as you said. So I have no way to solve it unless google let android support it.
Are you looking to connect ?????

100% working wpa_supplicant for galaxy s2 ad hoc mod for gingerbread 2.3.3 and 2.3.4

hello friends
today i m showing you a 100 percent working wpa_supplicant for galaxy s2 gingerbread rom for ad hoc network. yes it is test by me and also this is modified by me too. no one is responcible and cant take credit for developing it. currently i m using and testing on litening rom 6.1 and it works flawlessly. so no more wait for new wpa supplicant. becoz wait is over now. use it and reply me about ny bugs. i will try to revamp it. bye
download attachment and use it
if u like my work then plz donate me on my paypal account
[email protected]
and plz reply thanks
This is great!!! Tested on my galaxy SGS1 and works perfectly!
Thanks!!!
Edit: i can connect only if i set my ad-hoc network unproteced. If i add wpa2 or even wep security the phone gets stuck on "Obtaining IP address...", but it could be my ubuntu notebook.
Awsome sauce!!! Been waiting for this. Downloading and testing it now on my SG1.
Thanks
edit: just realised it is not a CWM flashable zip. Where do I put this?
edit2: figured out where to put it so dont worry. Cannot obtain IP address though on an unsecured ADHOC network.
what is this ?
It alows your phone to use your laptop/desktops internet connection. Create an ad-hoc wireless network on your laptop/desktop and then search for that network on your phone connect and voila your phone should now use the interent through your laptop/desktop.
I like it cos it means I can use my internet connection at work instead of 3g.
SGS2 on lite'ning v4.2 (2.3.4)
Open: 'obtaining IP' loop
WEP: 'obtaining IP' loop
WPA: [no connection]
it is not cwm file. first u have to unzip it then copy and paste this on system/bin folder on ur rooted gs1 and gs2.but this will work perfectly on gingerbread 2.3.4
hi haymzee
you should use litening rom ver 6.1 not 4.2 otherwise it will not work correctly.so first update ur rom in 6.1 and then use this wpa file ok
OH YES! will test and report; long awaited!
I can connect in the morning but after turn airplane mode on-off, then I can't connect till now.
It shows obtaining IP address, even I try to re-boot both phone. T_T

Hello, how did you manage to solve the looping 'Obtaining IP address.." problem ?
Also got the same problem of Obtaining IP address. I tried many configurations of changing the ip address manually with static ip address settings
Its working perfectly on our rom.
10 char will b built in in the next release
For all noobs:
Use root explorer
Unzip and put the file in system/bin
Reboot
Done.
Now test
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I use LogMeIn.apk
any solution for GB 2.3.5 ???
I've tried ad hoc on 4 different laptops and it only worked on the newer ones
I can confirm this works 100%. I tethered the internet connection on my Macbook Air with the phone using AdHoc Wifi successfully.

I made a L2TP Connection which i use for my pc without any problem....
hello
I havent received any answer yet.....
VPN on Android 2.3.5 ARDH 6.1.5
I managed to get PPTP working on my android phone running 2.2
I used the stock VPN settings screen to do this.
1. Settings->Wireless and Network-> VPN Settings.
2. Add VPN
3. Add PPTP VPN
4. VPN Name - whatever
5. Set VPN server: (or whichever server you want to use)
6. Enable Encryption: UnCheck
Then save and you'll be brought back to the VPN settings screen. Select the newly created VPN entry, and you'll be prompted for your username and password. Be careful about typing your password in, its difficult with the onscreen keyboard.
Mine connects after that.
L2TP doesn't work for me though.

[Q] How to debug WLAN connection.

I flashed my vodafone netlocked i9505 with the latest echoe ROM v5. While logging in to my DSL router at home works perfectly, it fails with the 802.1x EAP secured account at work. I do see that the radius server groks the authentication, then comes the DHCP request to get an IP address and that seems to fail as the the login is started again. So question now is how to debug this. Any hint would be appreciated.

Could you try these methods here and let me know if they work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37319334

[Q] CM12 Network Issues, ES-FileExplorer FTP Server Broken

Hello,
a couple of days ago i updated my Galaxy S5 from rooted stock Kitkat (Touchwiz) to Cyanogenmod 12 (nightly 26.01. at the moment, recovery is TWRP).
I know CyanogenMod from using it on my Galaxy S2 already.
unfortunately i keep having some network problems..
At first the phone didn't connect to my Wifi. The Router assigns a fixed ip to the phone's MAC-address. I was able to fix that by configuring the Wifi-conection on the phone to the same IP instead of using DHCP.
Wifi works fine now.
Second: My ES-file-explorer FTP-Server isn't working. It starts well on the phone, but i can't access the IP ftp://192.168.178.xx like i was used to from my windows pc. Also if i ping the ftp://ip-address in the command promt i get a "couldn't find host"-error..
-------------------------------------
Third Problem Fixed!! (Had to re-enable "Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC")
Third: My Yatse XBMC / Kodi remote won't find the Host. it is active in the same network and i can controll it with my girlfriend's stock Galaxy S5, but i can't add the host to my Yatse.. Even if i enter IP and Webserver-Port directly the JSON-RPC check fails..
Any advice?
Thank you very much for your Help!!
