There's not trick for free Internet. The solution works this way:

default tethering routes traffic from connected devices to carrier's uplink, skipping VPN

the script changes routing, so device traffic is routed first to vpn interface, then encrypted, and send to carrier's uplink

this way carrier sees only the encrypted traffic from the phone, and can not tell if it's tethered or not

I the case of OP, he has free Internet because of his carrier's mobile plan details. TCP or UDP does not matter.
[Networking] Dethfull:
We need to install a 3rd app for enable vpn tether.

This requires root.

Just search web "VPN tethering .apk"

I use OpenvpnConnect and i has to install this type of app for "route" vpn to tether. :thumbup:
[Networking] Cris12821:
Does this work the same if you want to use your phones vpn/WiFi through your Computer that only has Ethernet?

And that Computer u don't have administration rights to?
[Networking] pranKster78:
Interesting Guide. Can some expert update the scripts so that you do not have to execute all the scripts again and again when VPN drops connection.

There must be a way to automate it.

Regards,

Pk.
[Networking] Lord Childe:
Some people are naive to think that it IS 'free' internet. Networks can still see how much data you're consuming - and if you consume too much in a short space of time (on Unlimited plan) the system is alerted to 'unusual data usage patterns'... alarm bells sound and a red light flashes, and you get a warning.
[Networking] DxFire:
I have unlimited data do i need the VPN app?

But it didn't work on linux(ubuntu 16.04)

Also is there a way to make it work through usb tethering on connectimg to a vpn???

Also,, is there a away to make this script permanent or auto works on boot???
[Networking] stefanosapostolopoulos:
This trick works for all countries,all devices,all carriers? if not how to modify it for each one?
[Networking] Infy_AsiX:
I'm no expert but it's really easy with tasker. In fact running the set of commands in one go through tasker is likely the easiest method.

Create task, add action: code, run shell, copy the below contents in to the command box. Tick Use Root. Can run the task then however.

Note the first line added allows VPN DNS to work thanks to bengsig

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to 192.168.2.1;
iptables -t filter -F FORWARD;
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING;
iptables -t filter -I FORWARD -j ACCEPT;
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE;
ip rule add from 192.168.43.0/24 lookup 61;
ip route add default dev tun0 scope link table 61;
ip route add 192.168.43.0/24 dev wlan0 scope link table 61;
ip route add broadcast 255.255.255.255 dev wlan0 scope link table 61;

Thanks OP this lets me be cheap having only an Android app VPN and tethering my PC through it when required. Without granting root to some app on the Play Store.

I did flash the lollipop alpha. Realizing that there's nothing much I can do I decided to go back for CM11S. During the process I re root the phone try to flash the CM11S. And after finished flashing the phone won't boot up (even with any combination of buttons). My computer didn't pick up the phone as well. Does this mean that my One+ is bricked? Is there any solution?

Please help :(

My OnePlus screen never turn on after this happen to me. All the response from the phone was vibrates. Vol up/ down + power, I tried everything, but only vibrate and nothing happen after that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXNcognitoXx:
I just wanted to say that i am new to rooting and that i just rooted my phone.

I have a Kyocera Hydro with android version 4.0.4. The Reason that i rooted my phone was because i wanted to swap my SD Storage (called USB storage for some reason) with my internal storage. i have tried a couple different ways but i cant get it to work. I dont know if im doing something wrong or if those ways just wont work with my phone. I was wondering if someone could help me out.
[AT&T LG G3] GroovyGeek:
Anyone seen SEVERE lag (5s+) with Apex when going to the home screen? This all started a couple of weeks ago, every time the phone wakes up from a prolonged sleep, e.g. in the morning. I pull down the notifications bar, see emails arrived overnight, go straight to Gmail, read the emails then tap home to go to my home screen.... and nothing happens for a LONG time, sometimes in excess of 10s, but at least 5s. Not sure when I first noticed it and whether it was triggered by an Apex update or me installing something else. Things I have tried that make no difference:

1) Uninstall and reinstall Apex

2) Force quite Apex and flush its cache

3) Flush Davlik

4) Remove all widgets on all screens - on the assumption that Apex may be waiting on one of them to auto-update its info

When I switch from Apex to LG Home the problem goes away, but now I end up with a launcher that is always a tad laggy and not nearly as nice. I really would rather not give up Apex, so if anyone has suggestions please speak up. Thanks!
[AT&T LG G3] GroovyGeek:
Desperation bump... I am seeing somewhat similar behavior on a tablet with completely different hardware running some other ROM so I am starting to think that it is partially APEX. However, even XGELS is showing this issue to an extent - every once in a while out of the blue it will lag for 1s or so. I am almost ready to wipe and reinstall from scratch. Any suggestions before I go through that pain?
[AT&T LG G3] JeffDC:
Humm. I'll have to check over the next few days to see if it's Apex or Timely. I have had occasions where it has taken a bit for the phone to get back on-line. So far it seems a Timely issue, but I will get back here with a follow up on the coming weekend.

You could create the icons easily enough. However Zooper doesn't support animations so the best you can achieve is a simple toggle - drawing in each position depending on the states of your chosen function.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andypandiiee:
Hey, so I tried to follow this guide to have ColorOS and Cm11 (https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/coloros-to-cm-multi-rom.212414/), but then I realised that I had no use for both of them to be on multirom. As a result, I wiped ColorOS and Cm11, then restored from a backup I had in TWRP. When I'm in Cm11, if I press the power button, it does not let me turn it back on besides doing a force reset by holding down the power button. If I delete the data from Cm11, I don't have this issue anymore, but then I lose everything. Any help could do as I am really frustrated about this. Cheers in advance.

Now when i boot up my phone, it has a red OnePlus logo instead of white, I'm guessing this is due to upgrading to ColorOS V2.3 Beta. Would you think this would affect it in anyway? I'm trying to download ColorOS V1.2 but it is taking so long to download -.-

I stumbled across this in the Universal WM6 Forum.

I can't take credit for it, Szilamer is the creator of this neat little fix.

See the original thread here.

I simply modified his cab file to include the signed dll (so it will auto start on our Hermes) and added the settings for button size and location.

You need to install both Cab files and then restart your device.

This will be embedded into WMXL v0.30 but I didn't think it was right to make you guys wait once we got it working properly.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MathewBrack:
[Size=+2] This method should allow you to switch between Chrome OS and Ubuntu by just pressing "Ctrl + Alt + forward" for intel based chromebooks or "Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Forward" for ARM based devices, to go back all you need do is repeat but replace forward with back.

[/Size]

[IMG="Ubuntu for HP14 Chromebook"]http://i.imgur.com/tCB0IpRl.png[/IMG]

[color=firebrick3] [Size=+3] Step One: Dev Mode [/size] [/color]

Before starting this process please note that doing this will wipe the data from your chromebook thankfully as your apps and drive are cloud based this shouldn't be too much of an issue

Whilst holding down refresh and esc press the power button, this will reboot your chromebook in to recovery mode

As soon as a yellow exclamation mark appears on screen press Ctrl+D. Press Enter

Your chromebook will now reboot again and enable developer mode, this should take about 10 minutes

upon the next reboot a red exclamation mark will be present, you may either wait 30 seconds for it to boot to desktop or you can press Ctrl+D

[color=firebrick3] [Size=+3] Step Two: Installation [/size] [/color]

To install

First download Crouton from here Github to your downloads folder

Enter the crosh terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T

Enter the following

Shell
sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -t xfce

If the chromebook you are running has a touchscreen you may wish to change this second line to:

sudo sh -e ~/Downloads/crouton -t xfce,touch

It will now start installing Ubuntu, this can take anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes

Once installed it will request a user name and password for Ubuntu

following this you may start ubuntu up by entering:

sudo startxfce4

To access Ubuntu you need to press:

"Ctrl + Alt + forward" for intel based chromebooks followed by "Ctrl+Alt+Refresh",

or "Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Forward" for ARM based devices,

To return to chrome all you need do is press "Ctrl+Alt+Back" again adding shift for Arm devices

[color=firebrick3] [Size=+3] Step Three: What next? [/size] [/color]

To close Ubuntu all you need do is log out and return to chrome OS

To reboot Ubuntu enter the following again

sudo startxfce4

Initially not many apps will be installed however to install these you can use:

Sudo apt-get install

and to search the packages available you can use

Sudo apt-cache search (search terms)

The apps I advise you install in terminal first are:

Sudo apt-get install LibreOffice
Sudo apt-get install Chromium-browser
Sudo apt-get install firefox
Sudo apt-get install vlc

To remove Ubuntu from the device at the exclamation mark on boot up press space bar and you will reset the device

[color=firebrick3] [Size=+3] Step Four: Removing [/size] [/color]

To remove Ubuntu from your chromebook without powerwashing you can enter this in to the terminal shell

sudo delete-chroot -a

Hope this helps and if you have any questions drop a comment below :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xWolf13:
I may also add.

You are not restricted to only XFCE. You can install other distributions by specifying it. In the command in step two, you are able to replace xfce with unity, gnome, kde, lxde, e17, and even XBMC. You are also able to change which version of Ubuntu you want to install. You use the same command in step two but you add a -r and specify which version. You can read all supported ones over here . You can also put crouton within a window. Example of installation with xfce and ubuntu 14.04 is : sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -t xfce,xiwi -r trusty

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 PM ----------

This is so you can dual boot Linux. Crouton is used within Chrome OS which is more like a VM. Chrubuntu may not support all Chromebooks including the one I am using, the Toshiba Chromebook 13. Missing touchpad drivers are the only problem for this chromebook and it is an easy fix. Crouton is 'new' and more stable with less usage of memory on the Chromebook.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xWolf13:
There is, but it shouldn't be needed if you are installing Crouton. Uninstalling crouton is a simple delete command or a Powerwash of the Chromebook. Here is however how you recover your chromebook if anything goes wrong. https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1080595?hl=en

I love our C720; we've got the 2GB/ARM model, is yours the 2GB/ARM or the 4GB/Intel?

EDIT: dur, just looked at your screenshot, nevermind :) How's ArchLinux run on just 2GB of RAM? I'm more used to Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Mint, which are more resource intensive, I think (Linux newbie here).

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] savoca:
Afaik the C720 doesnt have an ARM version? Arch runs just fine on 2GB but some of the AUR packages like google-ttf-fonts dig in so swap is necessary. EVO was a very long time ago accompanied by lots of noobishness! :)

In terms of available drive space once Ubuntu's loaded, and suggested applications like Libre Office are installed, how are people finding the available SSD/internal memory space once all's said and done?
