Dear all,
I'm seeking advice for my Lumia 930 running the lasted "fast ring" insider preview build.
When I'm at work, I connect through a company proxy server to the web. The Lumia system apps (store / update) connect to the web no problem but apps like Skype, or WhatsApp don't work at all.
I know, that those apps work, becasue I also have tested it with my rooted Android, using ProxyDroid app, that enables a "system wide" proxy.
Is there any solution to this for windows phone 10?
Thanks for any answers and best regards.

Hey guys..
I am trying to connect to my VPN so that i will be able to view some webcams i have on several shops.
I can connect to the VPN without no problem but as soon as i open ANY browser (opera internet explorer... etc..) i get disconnected.
Any ideas??

I have been looking into doing this but i have not been able to even connect to the VPN server at the mo. I will try again later and report back.
Some i found about vpn on usenet with windows mobile phones/pda...
I wasnt able eighter to get it going myself...

I have been using Hamachi and VNC Server. I can access and control my Pc from my HD2 and TYTn.
This combination has worked very well for me. I can watch my webcam from the phone and see what my dog is doing . Besides I can access my shared folders and listen to music, etc.
Hamachi by itself will be enough to establish a VPN connection and access your shared folders.

Hello,
you are writing that you can connect VPN on your HD2. Please, what software do you use? Can you upload it there? Because I want to connect from my HD2 to OpenVPN server, if it is possible.
Thank you for your reply!
Hi,
I use Hamachi as my VPN. Once you install Hamachi on your PC you can access it using the Hamachi mobile client.
Here is the to the Hamachi Mobile Client https://secure.logmein.com/labs/
I use VNC viewer for connecting to my RealVNC server. Here is the link to the original post that took me to the VNC viewer cab. I hope it helps

Hi everyone .
sorry to ask you guys but im new here and im so confused !
can anyone please explain to me how can i connect to a vpn with Hd2 .
i dont see any option to choose that when im connecting to the internet with my wifi connection ,so please help me .
Hamachi is not VPN, it goes through some 3rd party servers, so it isn't safe. OpenVPN should be okay.
a quick clarification to your statement:
google.fi/search?hl=fi&defl=en&q=define:Hamachi&sa=X&ei=-fdiTJGJN4OQjAfU3uCWAQ&ved=0CBYQkAE
the 3rd party server is only use for the initial negotiation of the connection between Pcs.
Hi there!
I've got OpenVPN installed and working perfectly
You can get it here:
http://ovpnppc.ziggurat29.com/ovpnppc-files.htm
I installed the german 2.1.0 version. Works almost perfect.
The only thing is, i have to disable htc sense to see the small icon located in a kind of task bar on the bottom of the screen. Does anybody know a workaround to access this Icon without turning htc sense off for the home screen?
This would be perfect.
Best regards
Hi everyone,
I really want your help.
As u discovered, I have a HD2 (best winmo phone ever).
I switch it to Android froyo 2.2.1 using an SD based type. (forgot the developer, thx though).
everything working completely (with slow speed), but:
1- Locations is not working (yet the GPS, Maps, and all google softwares are working), but when starting "locations", after less than seconds, it shows: "unable to connect to the server. Tap retry to try again, or Cancel ....", the same if pressing retry all the time.
Nothing on the net helped me: (tried to taper with build.prop, but i guess it did worst than good).
2- on winmo, i had a superb software where i can explore the content of my phone by using my internet browser and a WiFi connection with the IP address given by a program installed on the phone.
i found 2 programs on android (Airdroid and wifi file explorer PRO), they gave me the same ip address, but all my laptop browser could not connect to my phone. searched the net and also nothing helped (the ping showed: destination unreachable", the browser opens the search page).
Android Version
I found that the developer is MCCM HD v4.5 SD Android 2.2.1

What do you mean by "locations" ?? like an app? cause that could be app related not "your phone" related.

Ping issues again arent necissarlily a problem on your device. For some stupid retarded loser reason microsoft goes and disables echo replies in their firewall. I had the same issues with VNC Server. VNC Server first checks to see if destination is available via ping, and when that returned with a failed status, the connection also failed. So you should provide more detail for each issue. IE: Program specific things and what OS your computer has.
Cant wait to hear back! Good luck!

1- the app is the HTC locations (it came with the build).
2- I have win Vista ultimate 64-bit, and tried IE, google chrome, firefox, and opera mobile; all either enter the search page, or shows page does not exists.

this version of android you are on is SD card right?
And go here to disable your windows firewall and also if you have a third party firewall disable that as well. Then try to connect to your phone. I have a feeling windows is blocking the ports.
didn't work.
Thank you for trying.
1- Yes I have a SD based version.
2- I disabled the firewall as given by the link, and disabled the 2 antivirus I have (AVG and microsoft security essentials).
same thing, going to the search page.
i have successfully upgraded my windows 7 to windows 8 release preview. i have a dial up connection of bsnl broadband which is working fine in browsers and in mail and people app of win 8 but not connecting/ access able by any other app in start i.e. weather, xbox live or any other app installed from store which require an internet connection . please help don't know what to do & sorry for my bad English.
is wp8 will support VPN ... ???
Yes. I use VPN on my Win8 PC and the test tablet at my work. PPTP/SSTP/ICMP all work.
Haven't tried OpenVPN but should work no issues.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
I use Shrew VPN....is free and support .pcf files
SInce I use HideIPVPN as my provider I have checked their Windows software yesaterday under W8 Release Preview.
Worked (desktop mode only) exactly as in Win 7.
Log in, choose server from you package - connect.
Netflix and Hulu worked without any problems under Chrome both in Modern UI and Desktop mode (tested only PPTP VPNprotocol but I do not see a reason for L2TP or SSTP not to work).
So, nor problems with VPN and Win 8.
This means I only need VPN on WP8 system as well + Market Enabler (as in Android) and it Christmas for me

I dont see any reason why it should not work.
I can test it over the weekend when I reconnect HDD with W8 onboard
HSS works.. but not for the metro apps.
Because HSS only works for browsers as far as I know.
This is why I use VPN - all traffic, regardless of program creating it is directed to VPN server.
This means that I can use Spotify in Poland or watch Netflix on my iPad .
I have checked with W8 and both Chrome and IE in Modern UI mode use VPN as well (they got no choice).
I have read yesterday that WP8 will not support VPN but Secure SSL to access company servers - does any one know it this protocol can be used to change IP of a device? I suppose VPN servers would have to have additional software active to support this kind of connection...
hi there i need a vpn app like hotspot shield or betternet app available for android , ios etc .. is there any free vpn app available for windows phone 8/ 8.1 ??
In addition to having built-in support for a few kind of VPN (assuming you have, or can set up, a server), there are also many apps to help you connect through a VPN. I think all the apps are free, though an account on the VPN server might not be.
You can search the WP store online. For example, http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/search?q=vpn
