Die Antwoord!

This common practice for t-mobile internal networks to use military / dod ip address ranges! I worked there and asked wtf many times and no one could give me a straight answer other than to throw off someone trying to track down the source of whatever... they will see a dod ip and down the rabbit hole to nowhere they will go! BTW t-mobile is a company that is owned by the german telephone company which is owned by the country of germany! so, what does that mean? enjoy figuring it out and please post whatever you find out! BTW, i loved working at t-mobile until a jerk manager made going to work a living hell! MilkDUD head axxhole!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LilAnt530:
Dude...... Woah that blows my mind, im digging on T-Mobile and will see how accurate you are in regards to it's ownership, but if you are correct. then o.O

Edit; he's accurate this is some crap

Here's a little bit of proof of what I was talking about! And another tid bit of info is that AT&T never deployed new radios for it's network... There was this odd failed merger that resulted in AT&T paying T-mobile over 3 Billion if the merger was blocked by the authorities... That $ supposedly was spent on this super fast 4G(+a few more ) rf network which uses equipment that is easily upgraded with software! T-mobile managed to get 4G + up and running rather fast due to the management pushing the employees while paying them great wages and providing a great place to work feeling! I miss working before I had a horrible boss who made my life a living hell just because I was disabled! And No I hav e lost everything because of 1 racist jerk and a discriminating hr manager from 2012! What's really messed up is tht I tried and tried to find a lawyer to help me sue them for a number of reasons. I recorded everyday for 10 hours each day just so I could figure out if it was really all me or was it just a messed up situation where the company was afraid to punish the boss when they knew he was in the wrong... I still have all those recording if anyone knows of a lawyer willing to help meget at least enough compensation to support my wife, daughter, and now a grand daughter that all have lost everything because of the discriminating racist boss! I know it's long past 18 months for filing an eeoc complaint, but I was so shaken up by the tactics that were used on me that I was barely able to keep myself from ending it all.... I have my friends and family to thank for being there for me up till now! My family is still homeless and the gov't really doesn't have a program that helps the disabled people who have a hard time just staying alive. I get ssdi, but that's it! I love my grand daughter to give up hoping there is someone out there with a heart and the will to help me and my girls! BTW, the fcc doesn't regulate the rf energy transmitted from your cell towers by measuring the total power from all carriers equipment... They only can enforce the standard limits on a per carrier/per installation way. so if your tower has t-mobile equipment and verizon equipment you are getting 2 times the allowed limit for human exposure! It the truth! go buy a spectrum analyzer and see for yourself! your children will be the innocent ones that will be microwaved like someone is using them like some doctors play with the lives of mice!

found some info on this DoD thing

i actually found this accidentally while scanning my IP with maltego on Kali. i believe this is just hardcoded into the hardware. OP, do you have a rooted phone? if so then that throws my theory out the window of it being coded into the kernel or something like that.

it wont let me post any external links, if anybody can tell me how ill post my maltego scan results showing that it is a for sure thing

all i know is that this just confirms my paranoia that we are being watched, specifically by the DoD

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

on top of the DoD spying on us they have another defense company called Defense Information Systems agency (disa.mil)

all i know is wtf?!?!?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjtorresescobar:
I got something and is kinda shocking...

Today I was doing a regular check in my router monitor in the company and I found something pretty weird... I got an attack from the ip 28.150.79.66 then I made a lookup and it was the DoD.. it wasn't a big deal after I found another attack going directly to our cameras system ( is configured with a different public IP) so I went into the cameras system and in the log file appears this IP who gain access to out cameras using one of our usernames (admin).. I don't know but is pretty interesting and creepy at the same time that the DoD actually went into our camera system... and watched us?

this is the image.

You aren't alone

I ran a scan on my IP address of my phone thru an application called Maltego. And it provided me this

[IMG="Maltego Scan of my Phone IP"]https://drive.google.com/file/d/191r7XIGtNex_RWrYX5vIAey8quKx9xVL/view?usp=drivesdk[/IMG]

A link to that pic is here just in case.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/191r7XIGtNex_RWrYX5vIAey8quKx9xVL/view?usp=drivesdk

It gave me the same info you did but all in one spot. I believe that Google has a contract with the DoD, among other agencies, to provide a backdoor to every Android Device and further prove that the government can connect to anyone at anytime using FISA.

Still I'd rather have our govt spy on us than have apple sell all the encryption codes to China AND move a lot of their servers over there.. However now that Google is helping China create a censored search engine....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edicius_bizaar:
Having a similar issue with DoD IP addresses showing up where they shouldn't be

Not sure if this is the right place, cause it doesn't involve a phone of any kind, but I still believe it to be relevant to this thread.

I was messing around with my spectrum cable box and ran a diagnostic program on the box itself. Came up with some very interesting details about it. 22 pages full! Possible to hack it and get some free stuff....lol....if possible that is. Also checked out what was called "guide diagnostics". (Which is the 22 pg one, my bad). Well, on page 21, some interesting IP addresses showed up. One in question was called, "STG IP 29.63.77.74". When checked up on, it showed up as a department of defence IP same as OPs! Cheney reservoir in Kansas is where the website said the network info center was located, within a few dozens miles of course! Googled it, its what we do nowadays, and came upon this thread. Decided to share with ya OP cause few have. Question remains, why in the world does these IPs show up on androids and cable? And for what purpose? Oh! Also, the info reminded me of the build_prop that's in android! Way it was set up and had true or false in place. Leads me to believe that if one could gain access to that file system, via laptop, etc., then one could alter mrdvr, Dr, MoCA, and many others! Not sure about hiding the changes from the cable comp who obviously has access to those things but perhaps. Even found "hotel descrambler not authorized" on a page of info! Why would they need to have that? Could not find any relevant info online.

I think others should check their spectrum cable boxes for a similar IP as the one above! I believe this is something that needs addressed right along with our phones. If the DoD is working with cellular companies and ISPs, then we as a public are in serious trouble! When it comes to privacy, at least! All I did was went to diagnostics, and guide diagnostics. Info on page 21 of 22.

PS. Has anyone figured out how to root the fiesta 2 lg164vl yet? Love the phone, but hate it cause can't root yet. (Sorry this is irrelevant to discussion so its short) :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HACKED2011:
I had it too more than 30 ips within a month, and ips where rotating form Dod and British defense. They hack and scammed my emails stealing a lo of money from amazon. it look like its not the intention of the defenses but a group of individual manage to penetrate key area of administration and they do it for their own benefit. It nothing but stealing. It also involve India iand other countries. they uses Radar to trace your where about and change each ips you may uses. by that they keep you within them.

I too have a similar problem... However on my lg stylo 5 i checked my 4g settings and under network provider it came up as null.... Ip 21.76.15.62/30 which led to dod center as well.. And null? That leads to nothing
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K0mraid3:
its not really the us govt (in most cases). its IP Spoofing.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atmfrank:
It it's IP spoofing then who or what is doing it?

This thread started 8 years ago and there are still no definitive answers.

In my case, which is based on a LG V60 with Android 12, Google Fi (T-mo), unrooted/stock. The other day I found a DoD IP in the ARP table of my wifi router belongig to the LG V60. There were two IP's for the same MAC addresses, the correct 192.168.xx.xx and the DoD 26.xx.xx.xx.

This can only happen if there is some sort of bridge between the carrier and the wifi network interface, and somehow the constant switching between mobile/wifi caused the public IP to appear in the wrong place.

Note: I am currently in an apartment with poor mobile connectivity, which means very frequent switching.

Or, the incorrect ARP entry is the result of a VPN tunnel endpoint, perhaps a DoD spy backboor.

I am now in paranoia mode and run a searchable connection log tracker.

This thread is only and most informative source about this issue.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K0mraid3:
OK so there's quite a few ways to mask your ip, and specifically make your ip appear as one you want it too aswell as in a predefined location of your choosing. (They are also spoofing their geolocation) - I can't remember the exact name of it off the top but I'll make sure to comment it in a bit when I remember.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K0mraid3:
Basically, there are tools to modify the source address in the packet header to make the receiving computer system think the packet is from a trusted source, like another computer on a legitimate network, and accept it. Just remembered what i was trying to mention initially though, it's called RDP.

Here's a link to a story about it being used in such scenarios.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skrimpins:
The DOD runs G-Root Naming servers. This connection is likely reaching out to resolve DNS queries. No need to be paranoid if this is the case. The internet is built on DNS for everything. Check your phones network settings to see what the default DNS servers are perhaps?

I've been dealing with this for three years now, as it happened to me, it started at a **** hole apartment within the ghetto,as before I moved there I may have come across some info that a friend of mine got after doing a 10 year sentence in the feds. After i moved in, shortly after a couple moved in above me this is where my troubles began, I won't go into detail with that, because its a who nother post, anyway I've been being quietly tortured from these people and the ip addresses, 13 phones, 5 different carriers 5 desktops, 3 laptops, and my sanity. it's for certain that im being monitored 24 7 and they seem to be after my library because they totally sabotage any and all recovery from any device ive had. Im all most certain that they are jumping from device to device using Bluetooth area connction or lot . I'm totally have had enough and I want to make a constitutional stand and bring these people accountable for violating their oath and the rights of our civilian's, even under emergency powers, the governments powers are limited to that document, which is the supreme law of the land and we are protected by the 5th amendment.

[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
HTC confirms One X+ not getting anymore updates

Not for nothing but HTC always has excuses for why they no longer support older devices.

Excuses are like a--holes. Everyone has one and they all stink.

As much as I like the HTC Sense, their lack of supporting old hardware is becoming a major gripe.

If I wanted lack of support for older devices and being forced to spend money on upgrading to a new device, I would switch to Apple.

This is complete BS!
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
I absolutely agree. My last 5 devices have been HTC but my next one won't be.

XDA-developers has provided HTC with a lot of support over the years by devs willing to spend their own time developing roms, kernels, apps etc that have extended the life of HTC devices and made them better to use. I have stuck with HTC pretty much because the people on this forum would help make my device better. To mind HTC owes this forum a lot. How about we organise a collective response to HTC from One X+ users?
[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
Ever heard the term fall upon deaf ears. That is exactly what would come out of it.

There was a collective response when they stopped supporting Desire HD.

Did HTC care? Nope. They just want you, the consumer, to spend more money and buy another HTC to help the ailing company.

HTC Sense has some really great features but it is not worth having to spend money every year and a half to buy a new phone in order to receive the latest OS.

HTC blames nVidia for the lack of support. Interesting how the Nexus 7 with nVidia already has fully support for KitKat.

HTC, if you lie to us at least have some truth to your lie!

[MENTION=1377957]saitch76[/MENTION] I am on the same boat as you. My last 3 devices have been HTC and always the same story. After about a year and a half of the phone coming out, HTC always came up with an excuse as to why the device will no longer receive further updates.

Galaxy S5 here I come?
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
I suspect HTC is hoping users will react with hopelessness as you have described and think there is no point complaining. HTC is in a very different position now compared with the Desire HD days and there is a real chance that they won't exist in a few years. Apple is having to learn that it is unrealistic to expect users to fork out for a new top of the range device every other year. Hence the iPhone 5C. It's an attempt to stop it's customer base defecting to Android (Samsung) devices by giving them them a cheaper route to the latest OS. HTC don't have the monopoly on Android that Apple has on iOS and Samsung has a device for every budget. HTC's only hope is to hold onto their existing customers, particularly the loyal HTC enthusiasts. Nokia and BlackBerry are good examples of what happens when customers are neglected and I hope HTC has taken note. I would much rather be proactive and communicate how unhappy I am, and we are, (there is strength in numbers) than be passive and complain that HTC didn't come knocking on my door to ask what I want. IMO it's not really about the One X+ and KitKat, it's about informing HTC about their longer term strategy for device support. I will only buy another HTC device in the condition that HTC commits to supporting it for longer than 18months. I want HTC to be crystal clear on that. if they can't commit to that then I won't buy another HTC device. If 100 or 500 or 2000 One X+ users communicate that to them then they would be more than foolish not to take notice.
[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
I am unable to say that I disagree with you.

HTC most likely does expect people to keep mum about it.

When I first heard that the support was ending for the HTC Incredible I said, "Eh, it was a weak phone and phones are on the rise and getting stronger."

I then went to unlocked phones because I was working abroad. The Desire HD was their flagship and an incredibly popular phone. The forums were tagged with roms. Every week a new rom was born. Shortly after HTC released the Sensation, they stated that Desire HD will no longer receive updates.

Lucky me for not jumping to Sensation because as soon as the One X was released, Sensation lost support. That was followed by the One X+.

HTC put all their efforts on updating the One X+ and said the One X will get updates eventually. (I could keep going but you get the point.)

The HTC One is an amazing phone but the One X+ is still holding strong and could manage anything you throw at it.

I agree with everything you said. HTC once held the market a long time ago, as did Nokia and BlackBerry. The problems with Nokia and Blackberry is that they decided to stick to their own OS or partner up with an OS no one uses.

Apple still has their fanbase. People who like iPhones will continue to buy them every year or two, and Apple is very much aware of that.

HTC on the other hand, does not have that much of a fan base anymore. HTC must think they are the only game in town. Unfortunately for them, they are not. With the likes of Samsung surpassing them a long time ago, HTC has lost a huge market share and their stocks are their to prove it. Quarter after quarter their financial records are showing a loss in the billions.

You are right it is not about the One X+ and KitKat, it is about their lack of support. Every 18 months it does very much feel like HTC is pushing you to buy a new phone. My wife's Samsung S3 is now running Android 4.3 with 4.4 on the verge. That phone came out before the One X+ and Samsung is supporting it like a champion. Samsung knows treat your customers right and they will be back. Apparently, HTC expects their customers to keep coming back because their phones look nice. Samsung is currently still using plastic but I have a feeling that they will realize it is time to move to unibody metal. Samsung stole a lot of iPhone fans and I very much see them stealing HTC fans as well.

If you really think that making a stink about it by getting the community together to complain to HTC, I am with you.

I am done with their lack of support and want them to change. Competition makes the companies try their hardest. If HTC seizes to exist, Samsung will rule the market.

Let's start getting the community together and let's complain to HTC.

This ain't over!
[HTC One X+] geojoking:
What is the best route to do this? I suggested posts on their Twitter and Facebook pages, but they'll just hide them, or give the standard response. :(
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
[MENTION=3309542]TeK9samurai[/MENTION] I think you are absolutely correct. I'm thinking about setting up a Survey Monkey survey for One X+ users to get some data to send HTC. Questions could include how long users have had their One X+, how many HTC devices they have owned, how many OS updates they have received, how important the latest OS is for users, how long users think a device should be supported for, how likely users are to buy another HTC device, how users feel about the decision not to provide an update to KitKat, how users feel in general regarding HTC's OS update track record, how many users install custom roms in order to update the OS, how likely would users be to buy an HTC device if OS updates via custom roms were not available.

Any thoughts?
[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
All sounds great, I think the questions about custom roms should be left out.

If you open the door to questions like that, you will get answers that don't help your cause.
[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
Unfortunately, most likely what would happen.

Another course of action needs to be taken.
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
It will be a huge waste of time
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
And your suggesting what as an alternative?
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
There is nothing you can do.

No matter how many petitions you make or spamming their Facebook/email/inbox won't make a shed of difference.

I suggest you just live with it, like the rest of us have to and all the devices that had to prior to the X/X+
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
Just living with it is exactly what HTC will hope for. It's not in my nature not to do that. Passivity achieves nothing.
[HTC One X+] markkenzy:
I'll never buy a htc phone again.... :/
[HTC One X+] geojoking:
I agree. Just acceping and moving on does nothing. We've done in the past with numerous HTC devices, and we always thought HTC understood and wanted to change.

It's like they keep updating the One now, but ofter the One successor comes along, the One will be forgotten.
[HTC One X+] grigoriisi:
ALL u can do is get a different phone next. they will not change this decision. i had inspire 4g/ desire hd, and had the same problem but i didnt stop buying their phones, i just like sense and their harware. that doesnt mean they are doing a good job, at the end of the day phone does same things for me as any current flagship. i will make sure i never get a tegra device no more because u cant get all the goodies on this devices that xda can offer. my 2 cents.
[HTC One X+] atrako1973:
Guys , in may 2014 the HTC one community will be in our same situation today ,14 month old device ,let see if they will stop there too, from my experience HTC thinks xda customers don't represent 1% of their customers ,so it's easy for HTC tho move on and forget about us , even HTC elevate people get nowhere
[HTC One X+] redboar:
Neither will I. I got screwed in the ass figuratively with Motorola's Photon 4G but this is worse. A 14 month old phone IS NOT OLD. I bought my One X+ the day AT&T released it in November 2012, in fact the sales guy at the store had to look for it in back as it just arrived in stock.

I realize the phone has been out internationally since they dropped the ball with LTE support but I feel ripped off and misled. BTW it was slow as molasses opening apps with 4.1, the custom ROM based on 4.2 I installed (after rooting it which is a must) is faster but not by much.
[HTC One X+] TeK9samurai:
But you see, that's the point. Who in their right mind thinks 14 months is enough for a phone. I wish I had the money to spend so I could get a new phone every year. This is complete bs that a company decides you should get a new phone because they are no longer supporting it.

By the way Tegra chips have nothing to do with it. If they did, why does the Nexus 7 have 4.4?
[HTC One X+] geojoking:
Whenever anyone of us say that about the Nexus 7, someone says that the Nexus uses a different version of the Tegra 3, and that ours is unsupported, not that one.

Nexus 7: Tegra 3 T30L (Q1 2012)

One X: Tegra 3 AP33 (Q4 2011)

One X+: Tegra 3 T33 or AP37 (Q2 2012)
[HTC One X+] grigoriisi:
That's not the point. As far as I understand Point is that if u can get tegra s off u can get more custom roms developed and not count that much on HTC to realise them.
[HTC One X+] geojoking:
We weren't talking about S-OFF, but yes, you are right.

We were talking about the fact that is seems only our version of Tegra 3 was dropped, not the one on the Nexus 7, which seems a bit shady.
