Thanks for this list. I will use this kind of VPN soon...
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
Hi all, check out the new version (1.2.0). I have updated SSL and OVPN binaries.
[Android Apps and Games] ndrancs:
Thanks for New update...
[Android Apps and Games] Manokhan:
Don't you think routing from other regions will slow down the speed? how about the servers locations?
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
The server hosting the server list might be slow.. but vpn connection wise as long as a location is near to you or have high bandwidth it should be fine.

The server locations are all over the world.. they come and go based on the availability of the volunteers.

Does this need to be flagged as do not optimize in marshmallow Roms?

I noticed yesterday I unlocked my phone and found it needed to reconnect. Could have been a server side issue but thought I'd ask the question anyways.

I want Mumbai(India) based VPN ....
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
This VPN system works as a volunteer basis. If there are volunterrs from Mumbai India it will be listed.

I guess its a ROM issue? it works fine on my phone on Marshmallow 6.0.1. I didn't have to reconnect after unlocking.
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:

Which VPN server to use in China?

I am travelling to China very soon I heard it is a tough internet region and literally blocks everything, I have seen many servers on the link you provided please let me know which VPN server will work best in China to unblock the foreign websites? I don't want to miss out on anything and is this free VPN safe to use I mean what about the log policy?
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
Yes. China blocks servers like Google etc.

I am unsure which one if it works in China because I don't go there. Most probably you want to choose one that gives u stability and speed and is not a China VPN (duhh).

I think there could be a high chance that my app is already banned by them. If you are there you might not be able to even retrieve the server listing less connect to it.

Each server might or might not be there from time to time because they are hosted by volunteers, if they decide to stop hosting then the server will disappear from the list.

The volunteers logs ur tcp and ip headers for 2 weeks then after it will automatically be deleted. It's to uphold law incase somebody decides to use the VPN for wrong purpose. It's either you trust them or not.

There are paid VPN alternatives out there.. might serve your purpose better as they are more hidden..
[Android Apps and Games] LauraSmithMS:
thanks that a lot of information means I need a dedicated VPN that is optimized for China
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
you could try opening the app see if the list works.. try to connect to a few of the servers. it might work :angel:
[Android Apps and Games] OnLuxy:
Thanks for sharing this! This is what I am looking for.
[Android Apps and Games] LauraSmithMS:
I googled Best VPN for China and it shows me a lot of results, however I went to all the websites on the first result page and most of them recommend ExpressVPN on top saying it has strong servers near China like in Hong Kong, Singapore etc. and runs smoothly in China, many expats forums of China also suggests ExpressVPN and VyprVPN etc. sp my vote is with ExpressVPN now because I don't want to miss out on anything there.
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:

So far it seems to work ok. One issue I have noticed that when I want to watch Netflix, the audio works fine, but no video. It's certainly not a big deal, as I have alternate means, but is that common for a "free-ish" VPN? I did try other servers and got the usual "proxy detected" message from NF but some would connect but no video.

Obviously it doesn't work on Android emulators such as MEmu App Player: it hangs at "TCP_CONNECT". Have it tried several times.
[Android Apps and Games] |>/\nte:
So....I don't know what's going on, but when I tried yesterday to get a v.p.n. connection, the app hung in the "connecting (TCP)" pop-up. No matter how many times I tried, it always got stuck there. I'm using openvpnconnect along with totally free vpn, and the phone I used was an xperia sp running resurrection remix 5.8. Is there something I do wrong (maybe I'm just too impatient) or is there something else?
[Android Apps and Games] Rejinderi:
Have you tried on different servers especially the higher score Japan ones?

I have yet to try on MEmu app player.. the last time i tried on a normal emulator it works fine..

I just tried again using the first server that came up on the list. It worked. I'll post a screenshot later as well. It's not compatible with my xperia t's rom though (It's based on 4.3 - I don't know if it's not compatible with jelly bean since in the play store page it says it's compatible with 4.0 and up).

Well, honestly I have been through this but personally I won't recommend people to use free vpn as they can access data easily I would say that you go for paid VPN as it is much reliable and more safe. I have been using "FrootVPN" and it is been great as it gives satisfactory results.:D:D:D

I don't have heard of such a program yet, but mate; thats an awesome idea! You take ur PDA in landscape and for the right thump you use the bass-drum and for the left thump you use the snare-drum (and maybe more buttons). But that would be an really cool prog for drummers, or wannabe drummers...

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkfangex5:
So is anyone else worried about not being able to use Samsung pay if your device is rooted? I for one am not because magstripe readers are supposed to be phased out by October 1 2015. Samsung pay goes live in "second half of 2015". by then we will only be able to use Samsung pay for a few months before they are just phased out. I know the changes wont happen instantly, but im sure most merchants will be reluctant to use magstripes because if any fraudulent charges happen from a magstripe reader, they are liable. So the main point, anyone here actually not rooting because they want to use Samsung pay?

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Magstrip is not to be phased out. You'd misunderstanding what is going to occure. Magstrip will still be there (as they are internationally) what is happening is, if the merchant can't accept the chip/pin or chip/signature cards they assume responsibility for any fraudulent card use. Nothing says they can't still have the Magstrip readers, and they will keep them for debit cards, store cards, and gift cards.

I am not worried about losing Samsung pay, only because I kept knox at 0x0a while rooting.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZetaLau:
is it possible to...

1. Extract the NFC driver from JP Docomo ROM ,

2. Modify and combine the NFC Driver to Global ROM

3. Flash into SO-01G

Any information ??

thanks all !!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DZH1:
I don't know how to do the above but I can say unlocking this version alone

won't make you happy, even if it is unlocked you can't update it without a Docomo sim,

so flashing will be critical.

Great phone though, once you learn how to get rid of the animated goat character walking

But the Seller tell me, it is possible to update with OTA.

I was running cm12.1 on my wife's phone with 10c, I did new install with lollixtreme (stock based) with 20b. Main reason for the switch was due to camera being nonfunctional in cm. The rear camera is displaying the front camera picture in a stretched ratio, I can't think what to do to correct this? Do I need to restock with kdz?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scbash:
Hi all-

I did my best to find all the common problems in the forums, but my HTC One M8 GPE (original, not converted) just will not take the 5.1 OTA.

I had TWRP and SuperSU 2.46 installed. I flashed the 5.0.1 stock recovery from GraffixNYC's site and did a full unroot in SuperSU. With those steps done, attempting to install the OTA results in:

file "/system/bin/app_process32" doesn't have any of expected sha1 sums; checking cache
failed to stat "/cache/saved.file": No such file or directory
failed to load cache file
script aborted: "/system/bin/app_process32" has unexpected contents.
"/system/bin/app_process32" has unexpected contents.

But when I compared my app_process32 with GraffixNYC's 5.0.1 RUU version, they have the same SHA-1:

575903d0987fbadfa558fcfb9f69bdd29e519de8 app_process32 (mine)
575903d0987fbadfa558fcfb9f69bdd29e519de8 app_process32 (5.0.1 RUU)

So I pulled update.zip off my phone, extracted the updater-script, and found my SHA-1 does match the second SHA in apply_patch_check!

apply_patch_check("/system/bin/app_process32", "b6a0aef32e21dfc6a230ccf707d9b08d513dbcd3", "575903d0987fbadfa558fcfb9f69bdd29e519de8") || abort("\"/system/bin/app_process32\" has unexpected contents.");

Concerned I might have gotten a bad update.zip I grabbed the link from the OTA thread and verified it matched mine (it does).

Unfortunately I'm still S-ON, so simply flashing the system partition seems to be out.

In case I'm missing something, here is the output of fastboot getvar all:

(bootloader) version: 0.5

I am dealing with exact same issue. GPE HTC One M8, not converted. I rooted, S-ON and installed TWRP to get CM12.1. Then flashed back pre-rooted GPE rom from GraffixNYC. I recently decided to go unrooted so that I can get OTA (and M later), but OTA gives me the same error (I have the stock recovery now) I tried to flash unrooted RUU from GraffixNYC's thread, but that fails. Firmware is flashing fine. I wonder if you have figured out a solution.

Stephen
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msgfromside3:
I did a bit more research and it seems the culprit is busybox being a part of pre-rooted ROM. /system/bin/app_process32 is actually symlinked to a new executable in /system/xbin, where busybox and su are being installed to.

With S-ON, the options are very limited (I hate HTC for this. Neither Samsung nor Nexus line never gave me this S-ON/OFF crap.). I think we need a ROM without pre-root, or somehow trick the update script (I used to do this a lot with Samsung devices). I will see if modifying the script helps.

Thanks.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scbash:
Arg, I should have thought of that! One thing that might be helpful is I found it's possible to retain superuser privileges in an adb shell if you run su while the phone is rooted and then unroot via the SuperSU app. That might allow you to fix up the symlink (assuming the original is still available). I'm a bit busy today, but if I find some time I'll experiment with that.

Yeah, this is my first HTC, and being a GPE I expected a "Nexus with HTC hardware". After the ease of hacking my Galaxy Nexus and my wife's Nexus 5 the One GPE is frustrating. Really I think all my problems eventually track back to the post-5.0 OTA model of "everything must be an exact match", but I don't see Google changing direction on that anytime soon...

Thanks,

Stephen
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msgfromside3:
Figured out. /system/bin/app_process32 is the culprit. The hard part was to figure out how to make a change to system partition. I first tried to remount the system partition from the shell, but that didn't stick after reboot (maybe because of s-on). So here is what I did.

1. reflash twrp, if you are back on stock recovery

2. boot into the recovery

3. mount system partition

4. go to advance -> file management (or something like that)

5. go to /system/bin

6. remove app_process32

7. rename app_process32_original to app_process32

8. restart back into the bootloader

9. reflash the stock recovery

10. go into the recovery

11. flash OTA via adb sideline (you have to press UP + POWER to see the recovery menu). You might see some error something to do with /data partition and /system partition at the end, but they seem harmless.

12. restart the phone. the OTA script will flash firmware.zip automatically

I don't know the implication of replacing the symlink to the original file, but it seems I didn't lose root yet. I just finished this process so haven't played with the phone at all other than confirming the version change.

Hope this helps!

---------- Post added at 07:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 AM ----------

Yeah, I tried the uninstall path first time, but no, that only deleted supersu binaries, not busybox.

That was my expectation with GPE as well. Now my rule has changed to "Only Nexus devices". :)
