quick clarification before I purchase an Android tablet

Hi everyone

Before I spend money on an Android tablet, I want to check if this is going to do what I need:

Over WIFI, i want to join an l2tp with a passphrase vpn (Its a DrayTech router so, Standard not OpenVPN) and then i want to share out that VPN connection via wifi. I guess the difference here is that most people would join a VPN over a cellular data connection, whereas I want to join a WIFI connection and then establish the VPN connection.

Does anyone do that? Will that work?

Also, I am planning to buy an Android 7.0 tablet, will this work with this OS level?

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards

Harris

The functionality you're looking for is called repeater and sharing VPN connections via VPN is what this app can do exclusively to the best of my knowledge. Keep in mind though some models experience a bug where you can't change repeater SSID and password but it still works nevertheless as long as it's rooted Android 5.0+.

I'm having trouble getting the VPN forwarding hotspot working. But the temporary hotspot works fine. Apart from the crash or time out.

On pressing hotspot I get the secondary wlan switch appears to which I switch over and root is granted. But the client phone does not get the VPN IP address. Where using the temporary hotspot, all is good.

Ive tried all different orders in setting VPN. Connecting client ect.

If I can give any more info please let me know.

OnePlus6 android 9.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
I don't think the order matters. If you're talking about not able to obtain IP address, try DHCP fix in the settings. Make sure you're using the latest release which is 2.0.1 at the time of this post. If this doesn't help, please export debug information.
[Android Apps and Games] TymmyD:
I believe it to be a problem with my phone aand the EE network. I don't think my phone is compatible properly with EE. That's why I turned to this app. As I was having trouble with NAT type on PS4 using this phone and the EE network. If I switch SIM, all seems to work as it should.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
Have you disabled hardware tethering acceleration? Anyway exported debug information is usually useful for gaining insight into what's wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
I don't see crash reports anywhere for 2.0.1. Can you please grab a logcat?
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
So seems like you're talking about an ANR (freezing) instead of a crash. I have identified the related deadlock issue and I will release a fix in 2.0.2 soon. Thanks!

Does it work with pie 9.0?

I have oneplus-6 and thinking to upgrade to pie.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
Yes.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
What DNS
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
This app will pick up (and prefer) DNS servers used by your VPN/Android system. (note that private DNSes in Android 9.0 is a different matter)

Does the VPN needs to be used as the same country as the one you are trying to bypass the restrictions on?

I am also with unefon and had been using the hotspot since the illimitado plans came out. I didn't have problems until a few weeks ago when the local cell tower began to block the hotspot feature. Anyway, with VPN hotspot, I can once again use the hotspot feature with no problems, so far.

Hi All,

To the author -- this is a great program for many reasons -- I have one enhancement that would be great for TMobile USA users...but first a little background....

T-Mobile has been tightening up it's tethering policy lately making it harder for folks to Tether undetected. This is usually not a big deal to me since I rarely go over, but occasionally when I need to...the ability to hide tethering is AWESOME. Unlike with most carriers, any type of VPN connection will cause TMobile to start monitoring you for tethering and counting your usage as tether, however you can typically hide it by:

1) Not using a TMobile branded phone w/o custom ROM that notifies TMobile you are tethering;

2) Not using the hidden tethering APN (VPN Hotspot will do that);

3) Changing TTL on your computer to 65...so it gets reduced to 64 when it leaves your phone...which makes it look like phone traffic;

Note: They used to monitor browser user agents, but don't seem to any more.

A great and easy enhancement would be to force TTL to 64 using POSTROUTING as an option, as this will hide traffic coming from anything connected via the hotspot so it looks like phone traffic w/o a VPN.

Anyway -- my computer does this, and with VPN Hotspot, using my OnePLus 6's tethering and VPN tether (and no VPN) the traffic is not counted as tethering.

Thanks for a great app...

[Android Apps and Games] TunedFish:
Does anyone know if there is an iPhone equivalent to VPN hotspot?
[Android Apps and Games] TymmyD:
When using the VPN hotspot to tether, doesn't then ticking the wlan0 option, divert the traffic to show as not tethering but as phone traffic? I thought that is what that function would be for?
[Android Apps and Games] MetroWestMA:
Yes -- but if the carrier does "deep packet inspection" -- I.E. looking for TTL or at browser user agents they will still find and count tethering. It seems that TMobile (all I can test) only checks TTL now since user agents could be all over the place depending on what app or browser you are using. So setting TTL to 65 on the connected device (in my case, a Mac) means it will end up being 64 by the time it leaves the pone's routing system which is the same as Android default (I.E non-detectable).

I m just saying it would be easier for most non-techies to have VPN Hotspot do this with an option that uses the iptables -A POSTROUTING option since it is already modifying the routing tables and would be very easy to implement.

I suppose I could test that myself using Termux / TSU... :)

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

I think if you use PDANet or MyTether on jailbroken iPhone it will use the phone's VPN if connected....it's been a while but I could dig out my iPhone and test...
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
To hide tethering traffic, you should use this app with a VPN/proxy socksifier. Changing TTL might work but is in comparison easier to detect. If you insist not using a VPN, I'd also suggest use this app with apps like TTL master.

http://www.tetherme.net/
[Android Apps and Games] apkloader:
I will try it and see
[Android Apps and Games] MetroWestMA:
I just installed this -- should work great! I had tried another TTL editor that didn't work...thanks for this.

VPN w/ T-Mobile USA does not seem to be an option as they immediately start counting any VPN as tethering. I think they started doing this earlier this year, mainly to stop people using a VPN to get around video compression...
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
Wow. That's ridiculous. You could probably try different (less popular) VPN protocols like wireguard or even socks proxies.

Tried with Torguard VPN app on Magisk rooted Moto G6 connecting to Win 10, no internet connection. Also tried with the WIndows Torguard Client app on the PC. Still no connection. The PC wifi connection status would display "No Internet, Secured". PC does connect to phones wifi tether and receive Ip address.... just no internet access. If VPN is not enabled on phone or PC, the carrier would block as expected.

Wifi Tether by Fabio has a switch in his tether app that attaches wifi tether to the VPN on the Android phone. No need to setup VPN on the devices/clients being tethered. It worked perfect for many years. Unfortunately his wifi tether will not work with Magisk.

Suggestions to make this work are appreciated.

Moto G6 Oreo

Magisk rooted

Torguard VPN

Windows 10 PC

Chromebook with latest OS, Lenova C330

[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
I'd guess you didn't disable hardware tether offloading. Exported debug information would be helpful.
[Android Apps and Games] Android-Jack:
On Oreo 8.0.0. According to this, hardware tethering offload is for 8.1?

Your linux kernel seems to have been heavily tempered by your carrier (metropcs). For now, please use 1.4.2. I'll try to issue a fix sometime.
[Android Apps and Games] Android-Jack:
I appreciate your time. Installed 1.4.2 and carrier still blocked,

This app is sweet! Small doni sent, this app works amazingly well and is stable even with a connection active for extended periods of time.

If I find any bugs, I'll try to report them. So far so good on a Pixel XL, HTC m8, and Samsung Note 3. Plus it fixes the stupid Pixel XL DHCP bug that I get when trying to connect to another device to the Pixel XL hotspot with AFWall+ enabled.

Good work!

Just tried v2.03 on my LG G3 d851 and routing Repeater->OpenVPN->LTE does not work (Connects, gets IP, no access to internet).

v1.3.7 works good so I'm using that :)

[Android Apps and Games] Android-Jack:
I gave up for now. Gave pdanet my money. USB tether to my computer which is now a hotspot for other devices. Works perfectly,. No issue with carrier with or without VPN enabled.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
Have you tried 2.0.4? Please export debug information for 2.0.4 to see what's going on.

So I'm just going to answer this here for once. I'm currently occupied with other stuff in life and probably will be until around Jan. I have seen your log but haven't got the time to examine it yet. Please be patient and understanding. (pull requests are still welcome, given that they are good quality, otw I still need to spend time changing them) Cheers.
[Android Apps and Games] Android-Jack:
Thank you for your time. I will revisit your app also after the new year. :good::good:

v2.0.4 from github works!

I was using a phone without a google account and downloaded the broken v2.0.3(latest version) from Apkpure.

[Android Apps and Games] persin:
Question, you said (in your list of things its #1) "Not using a TMobile branded phone w/o custom ROM that notifies TMobile you are tethering;".

My question is, what custom rom is there for non branded tmobile phones that will help in not notifying the carrier when i turn on hotspot?

P.s. I have rooted my OnePlus 5T running lineage 15.1 . I had my father sign up to the 55 and over unlimited plan with tmobile and i got the 2nd phone.

thank you very much.
[Android Apps and Games] MetroWestMA:
If the phone is not branded for TMobile, it shouldn't notify them you are tethering when you turn it on...unless T-Mobile forces them to put something in the unlocked ROMS.

For example, OOS on the OnePlus 6 doesn't notify them and I assume none of the earlier ROMS do. Of course now that they are selling a branded OnePlus 6T, maybe this code would end up in all their OOS's -- I don't know. But it isn't there now and if you follow the directions in my previous post that should hide tethering as best you can.

Here's some instructions that cover the TTL issue and hiding tethering as best you can from TMobile: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78244594&postcount=14

Thanks for you do a good app.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
I'm back on developing this app and you can expect a new version with bugfixes soon.

I'm not sure what you mean by "carrier still blocked". Elaborate more?

Assuming you're talking about repeater, you can use "Operating Wi-Fi channel" feature in the main tab. If you're talking about system Wi-Fi hotspot, you should change it in your system settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
In that case you should set it to 15-165, depending on which channel you wish to use. Note that your phone may not support some of the 5GHz channel (or maybe none at all). You could start with 48 which is a common 5GHz channel.
[Android Apps and Games] shara.name:
Can it automatically catch start of tethering?
[Android Apps and Games] jacomail95:
A CPU/WiFi wakelock setting is needed, sometimes maybe because of Doze mode or something else, the internet transmission stops after some time with display turned off. I use this app permanently on my old Nexus 4 on Nougat, there's no other apps interfering, just barebone ROM with Gapps and VPN Hotspot installed

[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
I suppose you're talking about repeater right? I just tested this app with emulated Doze and repeater seems to work fine. I'll add wakelocks in the next release (for repeater only) anyway. Thanks for the report. :good:

UPDATE: 2.1.0 is up. Please read release notes and check it out. ?

Is it possible to have this application use the Samsung Knox firewall api and not require root? The firewall api can add iptable rules, however, I don't know if it would support everything this app requires.

No. Those APIs are pretty limited.

[Android Apps and Games] doumer:
I'm not sure, if I understood this app correctly so does it apply for following use case:

When not at home and connected to the WiFi there I enable a VPN connection (system VPN on Android 9.0) and then enable the repeater in this app to connect a Chromecast to the created WiFi to use the VPN connection from my phone.

I tried to set it up but the Chromecast says "no internet" when connected to the VPN (but my phone has internet). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
Do you have any other Wi-Fi-capable devices available? If so, I'd suggest pull out one and connect it to the repeater and see if it works. If it doesn't, maybe export debug information and I'll have a look.

Hey, can you export debug information and attach it here?
[Android Apps and Games] flyer_andy:
This app is awesome. Great work and thank you for making it! I have one small issue - I routinely have some devices becoming (lost) vs. (reachable) in the device page... subsequently these devices stop working of course. I've attached the debug info I could export...any ideas why this might be happenning? I just ticked the DHCP workaround option in case it's a DHCP issue but I'd love any ideas! Thanks again for an awesome app!!!
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
If a device shows up as lost, it means your host device can't reach the client (it probably has nothing to do with this app). This might happen due to e.g. weak Wi-Fi signals, or faulty Wi-Fi hardware/driver (on one side or another).
[Android Apps and Games] isthisadagger:
Hey,

i got a couple of questions:

1. I manually connect to my vpn from my phone and this app modifies the routing of my phone when i switch the hotspot or repeater on and resets them when i switch them off?

2. Does the type of vpn connection matter (OpenVPN, IPSec Xauth,...)?

3. I can not export a debug log. I get a share dialog but no matter the app i chose to share it with (gmail, total commander, ...) nothing happens after i chose the app. I can share from other apps without a problem. Is there anythin i could try?

4. My setup is IPsec XAuth vpn connection enabled and working on my phone (can access devices in my home network and internet), switching on the hotspot in the app i lose the ability to access my home network and the internet from my phone and devices connected to my hotspot.

The vpn connection is still shown as connected and when i disable the hotspot in the app everything is working again. What am i missing?
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
1. Yes. Also whenever your network changes, this app will respond correspondingly.

2. This app does not care what your VPN app wants to do, just like most other apps on your phone.

3. That should not happen (it should at least work with gmail). Can you grab a logcat for that?

4. Let's get 3 sorted out first so that we can take a look at debug information.
[Android Apps and Games] doumer:
Sorry, took me a while until I got the time to test: other devices have the same issue - connection with my phone works fine but no internet available :(

How do I export the debug information? Didn't see an option for this.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
It's at the end of the settings in this app.
[Android Apps and Games] isthisadagger:
3. Fixed it by using the default share list instead of "andmade share".

4. Log is attached. I connected my phone to my vpn, opened the app and enabled the hotspot. Tried to open a webpage from my phone which failed. Disabled hotspot. Reloaded webpage (now working again) and exported the log.
[Android Apps and Games] Mygod Studio:
First, update to the latest version. Second, export debug information when it's not working.
[Android Apps and Games] isthisadagger:
Updated and exported log while hotspot was running.

After trying out a lot of different sound mods and apps and patches I always came back to Viper4Arise. Simple to use, great sound quality and a lot of customization.

There are many Arise editions but I find the attached one simplest to use.

Steps:

1. Flash the attached file (ARISE Sound Systems Deuteronomy 2.2.3 Mac 'n Cheese Edition FINAL) through TWRP

**For Android Oreo flash the included (ViPER4Android_2.5.0.4_Wonder_Wicked_Witch_12-Jan-2018.zip) file through TWRP instead.**

2. Reboot to OS

3. Install Busybox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.meefik.busybox) from Play Store

4. Open the Busybox app and install busybox

5. Enter the Viper4Arise app

Done!

Next, you need to set up the sound mod.

*I only use Viper4Arise for my headphones so I will cover only that part but you could test out different settings for other audio outputs*

In the Viper4Arise's menu go to UI setting and set it to expert.

Go to Headset and click Enable, I suggest you put on your headphones now so you can hear the changes in the sounds yourself and tweak them to your liking.

My settings on Redmi 4X are:

Spectrum Extension

(enabled): Strength: 0,5

FIREqualizer

(enabled): Preset: Acoustic

Convolver

(enabled); Impulse Response: BBE2.irs (extract the attached BBE 2.rar into Viper4Android/Kernel); Cross Channel: 30%

Dynamic System

(enabled); Listening Device: High-end headphone v2; Dynamic Bass:5%

Viper Bass

(enabled); Bass mode: Natural bass; Bass Frequency: 100 Hz; Bass Boost: 3,5 dB

Viper Clarity

(enabled); Clarity mode:Natural; Clarity:6 dB
