VPN configuration - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was trying to configure a VPN on my S5, but when I try to enter in VPN it asks me something like Password for credentials memory.
What is this?
Thanks
Regards
Gennaro

Yes true. I tried. Only pin or password. Clear now.
But I really don't understand what is the password it asked me when I had only fingerprint set. Description is something like "insert password for credentials"....

Did you simply enter your email address and password or you did manual setup?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
University of Phoenix uses Google servers so you add it like a Gmail account just change the at Gmail to at phoenix. Edu

For my university I did manual set up because you have to put the custom incoming and outgoing servers. If you don't know these you can find out from your universities IT department

I'm from Temple and they use a form of Gmail so it works fine.
If you want help. I can help you say it up. Just post what school you go to and I'll look on their site for the appropriate server instructions.

Pm me and I'll help get the setting for you

Like Warbuff said you usually need all that info from your IT department and then maybe your device isnt even allowed to access their server.
For me the other alternative I use, because I definitely dont want IT touching my device, is I use the web browser email version. Your school may have that, IT would know that address as well. Ex: exchange.<school name>.edu

Wifi hotspot

Hi guys,
I have turned on wifi hotspot on my phone without any security.
If someone connects to my hotspot, I can see an ip address and Mac number.
Now what I want to know is that, can I hack into phones or computers that are connected to my hotspot. If yes, how? If not, why not?
And also, can they hack into my phone? If yes, what should I do to protect myself? If not, thank god

Unrestricted Tethering

So is the only way to tether without restriction right now to use that toggle switch app? That somehow bypasses the check Verizon does?

It does the check, but when it tells you NO, just press the home button. Enjoy the WiFis
I couldnt get superbeam to work using the tethering toggle. I wanted to transfer files from asus tablet to note3 and the connection seemed solid but when I hit transfer I got the verizon data message again and again. Maybe Iam making things too hard using superbeam but I was able to connect the two devices.

Which app is this?
Is my assumption that the goal is "tethering without Verizon noticing and trying to change your plan" a correct assumption?

That's right. But I don't know the app name. I just heard about this working for some reason.

Hacked already?!

Less than a week on the market and the fingerprint sensor has been hacked already! Glad I didn't switch!

Glad you didn't switch? LOL That's probably the dumbest thing I have read all day, no offence. You can fool any fingerprint scanner like this pretty much. I tested this on my payroll time clock scanner and the same thing. It's not hard to do.
Yeah but with the PayPal integration, if someone hacked your phone with the fingerprint scanner, your money isn't safe really is it?

This is the reason they are putting it less secure than PIN and Password as a screen unlock method.
So first they need to take a picture of your fingerprint and print this with thick inkt than the need woodglue

Seriously, did anybody really expect, that this fingerprint reader cannot be fooled??

So just use a regular pin like you do on your note 3. Your logic is kinda flawed.
All they did was prove it can be hacked like any other password. What they neglected to mention is that the preparation needed for this is so much harder than just looking over your shoulder and stealing a regular password or pin.
The best password I had was on cm7 for my droid x and x2. It was a gesture swipe on a background of your choice but it allowed for multiple swipes and with no hints or bypasses it was impossible to hack. Never understood why they discontinued it and it hasn't been implemented in android yet.

Isn't that the case for any form of password? If someone got your PIN/password/pattern, they could have access to all of those things you mentioned, without ever needing your fingerprint in the first place. So...what's the problem here?
Pro tip: Everything is hackable. Thinking otherwise is only being naive.

Fingerprint Lockscreen !?

Is there any way to have a 4 digit pin as a backup password instead of a 6 character password?
I want to use the fingerprint for unlock but not always..i prefer to type a 4digit pin and having a keyboard with only numbers is easier i think
Any way to change it?

I think you are wrong cause this is only for knox to enable and not for the screen unlocking.
