VPN issue!! Even for premium user - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anything in s4 that don't let VPN to work and get connected??

nope VPN's work OK for me, usually any trouble is down to the VPN's side of things. you didn't give enough info though.
has it never worked for you ?
what connection type are you using ?
what vpn app or site are you trying ?
have you tried others ? etc etc

Maybe from the app itself.
I tested SurfEasy, OpenVPN Connect with EasyOvpn plugin, and Opera Max and all of these apps are work correctly on Infernus ROM.
I previously tested RocketVPN and it failed to connect on GearCM 13.0.

Yep tried in resurrection remix but didn't worked but it still works on my sister phone

maybe you could take some logs and send them off to the devs. leave a one star review and mention that it's not working at all after you have paid, they usually respond quickly to reviews that will damage business...

You got it... Nice and easy the way it should be. Hopefully one day USB tethering gets incorporated into this app.
Just hangs for me at 'start tethering' screen.. I have root and I gave it SU access when it asked..

hmm... Interesting Cause I was just able to play WoW while tethering and was able to watch a youtube video full screen hd even though had to give it time to buffer some
-pre4 is working great for me! You need root, but once the app loads, tap the middle of the wireless symbol (you should get an SU prompt) and connected my computer. Posting this from my netbook tethered to my Vibrant with this app.
Hmm... disabling tethering gives me a screen with on and off icons and a message saying that the phone's state is unknown and I should try rebooting. It's working fine though, I connected back up to the wifi network here and all is well.

This us what I'm seeing on pre 5. I found that when it says phone state unknown with the on and off icons that tethering is still active as the ap still shows up in my wifi network list.

I take it you'd need to root first before using this app? Wasn't sure since you don't have to root with pdaNet.

We have three Vibrants and the app worked fine on two of them. However, my wife's phone would lock up when trying to start tethering. We also noticed her phone was generally slower than our other two Vibrants. We returned the phone yesterday and exchanged it, but I haven't tried tethering with the new one. My wife wants to use it for a while without rooting it.

rooting will not kill your network connection. that's something that you did. you need to provide a LOT more information in order to have people help you out,
what ROM are you on, what settings did you change, what mobile carrier are you on, etc. etc. this is a simple fix, but we need to know what caused it first. :good:

Well the person above me said it. You just made a mountain out of a mole hill by giving out your imei to everyone on xda. Anyway, have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't work take it to Best Buy and tell them Kies wrecked havoc on your device and they can re-flash your phone for free. Don't tell them it was your fault.

I don't know what the problem is but you should be able to flash the stock firmware in Odin and get your phone working again. Double check this in the i9500, i9505, i9505G S4 forum. You can get the stock firmware from sammobile.com

He should be able to flash it himself. The i9505 is not locked down like the i337. It's an international version so he probably can't take it to best buy, which is what I was responding to.

Data enabled, but no internet connection
Hello,
I have the stock rooted i337 (AT&T), running on another provider network. I am aware that i337 is very difficult to do modifications due to the built-in by AT&T vicious locks to prevent using it with other network providers. This is the reason I did not flash ROM, because I am afraid to get my phone bricked and lose it entirely. Recently I subscribed to a data plan from a third party provider and I have 4G in the status line and HSPA in the data type, but I still did not have internet connection when WiFi was disabled, except that my Hotmail somehow worked. No other apps requiring internet worked. I spent a week researching the issue myself as well as working with the provider's tech support, but nothing worked. Two days ago, almost out of despair, I installed a new app called Opera Max, which is developed to route the unencrypted data to their Virtual Private Network in order to compress it and save the data use. As soon as I connected to VPN, all applications started working. I still have to turn Opera Max off when I use WiFi, because it disconnects my WiFi every few minutes, claiming that WiFi signal is too low. (My signal is very strong and no other devices have any issues with WiFi). However, this is a minor problem, considering that Opera Max saved my data plan.
It is still a mystery to me why Hotmail worked, but no other apps and why using Opera Max VPN solved the problem. If anybody has ideas, I will be happy to hear.
I must say that all data settings, including APN are checked, rechecked and correct, so this was not the issue.
Thanks,
Dan
I am also having connection issues after rooting my S4 i9505:
I am on a Telcel (Mexico) which is supposed to support 4G connections... However, ever since I rooted I can only access 2G/GSM networks. I have the official APN network configuration and I have tried two roms but still no luck...
Any advice would be most welcome.

WIFI works on brower but can not use any apps or update apps on play store

this happened all of a sudden out of nowhere just over a week ago on my home wifi. there has been no updates to my broadband hub or anything like that
i've run out of ideas how
my once great phone is essentially a paper weight
Does the same WiFi network work on other devices? If yes, you might want to try to factory reset or if that doesn't work a fresh install via Odin!

Err weird. So the problem lies within some part of the phone that is unaffected when resetting or reflashing (odin)... No idea really, sorry. Hopefully someone else has a solution!
it even effects the samsung brower on certain pages, but not all.
it hates google apps and trying to load the google app store webpage.
and yes i have cleared cache on google apps and deleted my google account

Anyone use Zoiper or other SIP app for VOIP on Oreo beta 2? Will not connect on WiFi

On Oreo beta2 I can no longer connect to the SIP server when the phone is on any WiFi connection. App works fine on mobile data but not on WiFi, no matter where the WiFi originates. This happens on Zoiper, CSipSimple or any Voip App. Was working on 7.1. Seems there is something blocking the connection to the server. Any thoughts?

Ditch the apps. SIP functionality is built into the standard phone app. I am using it with VoIP.ms.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know that was available but the same problems exists with the native dialer. Account will register on mobile data but not WiFi. Something is blocking it. Very frustrating and i don't know what else to do to troubleshoot this.

Perhaps your router (or service provider) is blocking a necessary port. I would start with researching which ports need to be open for SIP/ your VoIP service functionality. Then checking your network and router, with some app or other, if it is open or closed. Then creating a port forwarding rule to your device if necessary. Note this advice is just theoretical as I have not had to do this. Perhaps someone with some similar experience could further advise...

I have thought about this as well but that would not explain as why it happens on my home wifi, my work wifi, my friends wifi... All with different routers and service providers. It must be the phone or rom issue or possibly some app doing this. Googling this brings me to others mainly with a Pixel phone with the same problem.

Sprint OMA-DM cause?
OK so i was digging into the phone to try to solve this problem and found something interesting. There was a n APP called "Spring OMA-DM" that i found was using data on my phone. I use T-Mobile so i didn't think i needed anything Sprint on my phone. Since i am rooted i decided to remove any APP on the device that had a Sprint name. There were three i removed. Once i deleted these APPs my WiFi connection for my SIP starting working. I wonder what Sprint is trying to do. I bought this phone on Amazon but it was from a private seller and he obviously got it from Sprint but it was unlocked and i never had any problems. I think everyone might want to beware of this.

Yes, we can prune it down if you have a list of bloatware apps that can go. I've learned from the past that sometimes debloating trims away stuff that should stay. i can alter it according to your feedback, if you like.

Absolutely. The kernel is custom as I stripped away some of the security measures like dm verity and force encryption,added init support among others. The rom itself is much lighter than stock but if you have source code available I would consider doing a custom AOSP build with custom kernel but that would require alot of my time and computer resources. I am a dev for hire so this is how I survive day to day. If it takes awhile to get back to you it's because I'm in active development for over 10 devices at the moment....Thank you for your support.

Hi Sands207.
First of all thanks for the hardwork. When my dad did a trip last year at Portland, US, he brought me back a J3 SM-327u. Unfortunately the network was locked and here where I live (DRC) it was impossible to connect to 3G or 4G. Only 2G. I was obliged to connect to wifi whenever I wanted to surf the internet. Now with you custom rom it's repaired, I can connect to 3G.
But, the torch doesn't work anymore, when I try to turn it on a pop-up tells me that it's used by the camera; neither the camera itself doesn't work anymore. the connection via usb to the pc also, it's just charging the phone. In Settings, there are many sections or options duplicated and the screen doesn't rotate automatically anymore even if the option is on.
So, what can I do?? Do I need a more customed one by paying on paypal like you said on your post??
Thanks.
