Hi all,
I got a problem using default VPN app from android (4.1)
I explain : I use VPN (from cisco) to get email from my work. (xAuth / PSK)
--> I suceesfully connected to vpn using "VPN Widget" and too with "VPNCilla" (with "old vpnc method" enabled and Natt mode on "Cisco-UDP, other way doesn't work)
--> I would like to make the same on a non-rooted device, and that's why i tried to configure Android's native VPN like this :
Name : vpn
Type : IPSec Xauth PSK
Serv adress : IP-Of-my-work-VPN
ID of IPSEC : Name-Of-my-work-VPN
IPSec Key : Key-Of-my-work-VPN
When I try to connect --> Name + Pwd --> Fail
After some looks at Google and a lot of VPN apk tested (for no-root), I think the problem is that Android default VPN doesn't offer this "old vpnc method" & "Cisco-UDP" Nat mod. But how can i get them work then?
Does someone can help me ?
Regards
hi
I noticed that some users use a vpn android to browse free on the internet. but I wonder to what happens and how a vpn to bypass the firewall security ..
The rom I'm using is Axis =]
Have you tried AnyConnect?
<Don't ask me how I sent this>
It's not that.
THe APP Onavo Extend is trying to connect to a VPN.. I click approve and it says
VPN Unavailable. It seems that VPN support for applications isn't available in your version of Android.
Still looking
EDIT:
I checked again today and my IP is changing to the remote location. I haven't received any OS update so I'm pretty sure that something shady is happening here. I'd recommend installing Lineage OS or other reputable AOSP-based ROM as soon as an official release is made.
Original post:
Try this:
Install a VPN application (I tried ExpressVPN) and check your public IP (whatismyip.com or similar). Use an incognito tab to avoid caching details.
Now run the VPN.
Check your public IP. Close the brower, or use a different browser and check whatismyip.com again.
The IP has not changed.
Traffic is not routed down the VPN. This gives users a false sense of security whilst their traffic is completely exposed.
So far I've tried a couple of VPN applications, this is a good reason to flash lineage OS. No idea if this affected MIUI 9.6, I haven't tested that. Flaw exists in MIUI 10.0.4.0
Hi
I've test vpn with OpenVPN on miui 10 (beta) and it's working without bug.
Im on stock miui 10 android 8.1 global rom.
I too have this issue when i run nordvpn and connect to an international server.
IP address doesnt change even after a successful connection.

Maybe this is only on MIUI 10 final (not beta). I'm really surprised that this passed Google CTS, this is a serious bug and security risk.

Yep. I've tried two providers myself and both exhibit the same problem.
Yep, tested on Miui 10 beta - 8.11.8 - using torguard.
My IP address is changed. Working fine on the beta...
Installed 1.1.1.1 by cloudfare, status shows connected thru VPN but ip address is not masked. Serious flaw

dns and ip aren't the same.

Yup, I believe that the 1.1.1.1 app is a DNS-changer, not a VPN client. Traffic is not tunneled through a private network using this app.

When you receive the final update please let us know what you find. Also, which OpenVPN client app are you using?

It is a DNS changer but routing network through its DNS and works as a VPN.
Infact notification shade displays VPN symbol also.
I'm on MIUI 10 Stable and using OpenVPN for Android app without any issues.

Can u check Ur IP address thru whatsmyip.com if it is changed ?
I tried openvpn and connected to one of nordvpn's spain servers. Golly! Ip address successfully changed.
The app that i used was https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.blinkt.openvpn
VPN is not working! I use adguard to block ads. It shows that the VPN is connected but no data is being routed through the application!

Cloudflares 1.1.1.1 is only a DNS resolver. It doesn't change your IP. A vpn and a dns resolver are two different things.
The symbol appears because you're routing traffic through 1.1.1.1's secured connection. Some phones display a 'key' logo , some states vpn.
If you wan't to change your IP and stay secured, i personally recommend Cyberghost on both the phone and pc.
Cheers.
I am on MIUI 10 stable with Jio mobile data.
Without VPN :
ISP : Jio
City : My Location
IPV6 address is available.
With TurboVPN :
ISP : Digital Ocean
City : Bangalore
IPV4 address is available.
So, i think it works for me.

Can you post the MIUI release number? Mine was 10.0.4.0

Does anyone know how to get generic VPN support on Android TV? There are lots of VPN apps that connect to 3rd party services. But I want to connect to my home VPN Router when on the road.
I have done it with OpenVPN which required setting up a separate OpenVPN server. But I would prefer to use L2TP/IPSEC.
Android on a phone has support for a generic L2TP VPN. Is there a way to get this working within Android TV? i.e. did they just leave it out of the UI?
Specifically, I am using a MiBox S with Android 9 Beta...
Thanks
I have the same question. Did you find any solution or does someone know how to do this?
Still no L2TP VPN app that can be used on Google TV?
