VPN Issues - LG V20 Questions & Answers

After installing the Nethunter kernel (thanks to @jcadduono by the way), all VPN clients I try do not allow me to access most sites and services. Mostly concerned about Facebook Messenger, XDA, Spotify, etc. Before the kernel flash, I was able to use them perfectly fine. After I realized that the VPNs weren't working, I decided to flash a different kernel, thinking it was the different drivers that were in there causing issues. Alas, new kernel, same network issues. If anybody could help that would be great, thank you in advance.
EDIT: The VPNs do connect, but the services all say "no internet connection" or "timed out" or something of the like.

Can't get wifi tether to work! No internet access or limited!

I loaded the latest RS12 Hyperdrive rom and the built in wifi tether as well as 3rd party apps do not work. It sets up flawlessly and the network is displayed on my Win 8 computer, but when it connects it says "No internet access" or "limited".
I'm not a fan of 3rd party apps as they seem to have a bunch of ads, and some of them simply get errors. Although one I did get to work, but same thing, no internet access.
I flashed my backup which is Graviton rom and it works perfect. Is there a setting I am missing? I looked and searched threads and didn't seem to find a solid solution. The built in tethering is quite simple without a lot of configuration.
Thanks

VPN Broken on 6.0.1?

Hi All,
Since I upgraded to 6.0.1 (stock) my VPN connection no longer works. Not using any app just the built in Android VPN to hide.me.
Used to work on 4.4.4 and 5.1.1.
Exactly the same settings on the same network on my Note 3 (4.4.2) work just fine.
Always the same 'unsuccessful' message on the Note 4 (SM-N910C) though.
PS I have done a factory reset, cleared the cache etc etc just in case but no joy.
Anyone come across this. Any solution or workaround?
Cheers,
MM
I think there was a problem with VPNs in Android 6.0 marshmallow. Don't know if it's been fixed though.
VPN is working fine on my phone with 6.0.1 MM. I use Betternet VPN.
I experienced a problem before with VPN when I installed the xposed module Force Immersive Mode. But after disabling this xposed module, my VPN worked fine again.
Well, I am totally unable to get a VPN running using the built in VPN client using L2TP/IPSEK PSK.
For the benefit of others who may have the same issue. I download OpenVPN for Android from the market and used a ovn (config) file from my VPN provider (hide.me) and it all just worked first time.
If you don't have an ovn file you can configure manually.
I am very surprised at Sammy letting it ship with broken VPN functionality. A lot of us need this to access work networks etc etc.
Mrmyagi did you ever find a fix for the built in VPN access? I use a tab4 for work and cannot get into my VPN anymore on marshmallow. Our IT department can't even figure out a workaround
I use tunnelbear on 6.0.1, and it works fine.

I would use a third party app only company doesn't allow installation of any apps off store. Might be able to install it with just apk though
FWIW I use the stock VPN facility to connect to the VPN facility of my Draytek router, and it works fine, so the stock facility isn't completely broken.

I use OpenVPN for Android (available on Play Store). Works for me and actually better (IMHO) than the built-in client.

[Q] Odd WiFi Problem (No Internet Connection)

I just bought a Nexus 6P, rooted it, and installed PureNexus (Android 7.0.0). At home my WiFi works perfectly fine but I have issues at work.
Little background on our setup at work, we have 2 different wifi networks. One is a guest network with certain sites blocked at the firewall but nothing else really unique. The other is the main network with no firewall restrictions but you have to install a certificate to allow SSL traffic to be decrypted. Without the certificate you can go to any non-SSL sites, but secure sites will not load.
I'm able to connect to the guest network with no problems, but anytime I try to connect to the main network my phone says it has no internet connection. I'm able to get to internal resources on our network and the web browser actually does allow me to go online, but other applications won't. I've tried without the certificate, tried installing the certificate as WiFi and VPN/Apps but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Before the Nexus 6P I had an iPhone, which worked perfectly fine on the main network with the certificate. The last Android I had was on KitKat and it worked fine with the network configuration at work. Other people with Android have no problems with the network, but nobody has Nougat, yet. Any ideas on what's going on here or what I can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help you can give!

Issues connecting to AirMore and similar apps

Previously, I had no issues with AirMore on my Redmi Note 7. Recently, I can no longer connect by scanning the QR code. I've tried using another Xiaomi phone with the same version of Android and MIUI (both have Blokada as the only thing modifying their network), and it works properly with AirMore. I've also tried the method where you input your phone's local IP address to connect to its AirMore server. Works on the other phone, but not on this one.
I've also installed AirDroid, and it only manages to connect via the remote connection mode (over the internet), which limits you to 200 MB transfers in the free tier. So there's gotta be an issue with the phone isolating itself from the network. I do not remember modifying its network access in any way, other than using Blokada to block ads system-wide. I've tried uninstalling Blokada and it didn't help, while it works normally when Blokada is active on the other phone.
Can anybody help me diagnose what the heck is happening here?
Any help? I've managed to determined that the phone refuses all local incoming connections for some reason. I really can't afford a factory restore, I have so much installed and configured just the way I want it.
