To set up a VPN connection go to settings-> wireless and network-> more settings-> VPN.

I have a problem of setting up http proxy server for my wireless connection.
What I have done is:
1. in settings -> connections
automatically connecting to internet by using: My ISP
automatically connecting to private network by using: My Work Network.
2. In My Work Network -> proxy settings
ticks, this network connects to internet
ticks,this network use a proxy server to connect to internet.
advanced:
HTTP: proxy.proxy.proxy: 8080
3. Set my wireless connection connect to Work network.
However, after the wireless was enabled, my proxy setting alway vanished away, like I haven't setup any proxy setting at all.
If I want to try to re-set my proxy server again in My Work Network. It will vanished away when I back to setting panel.
But if I disable the wireless connection, then my proxy setting can stay there. If my wireless turned on again, my proxy setting would gone immdiately.
Do you know what's wrong?
I'm wondering whether I can tether with FoxFi and have the traffic go through a VPN connection set-up using the stock VPN client. Does anyone have experience with such a set-up?
Your stock vpn on you computer?
I meant the stock VPN Android configuration. Basically I'm wondering whether the following works:
- set-up VPN on my S6
- start fox-fi
- associate laptop with S6's AP
- browse the web from laptop through VPN
I'm concerned that the fact that fox-fi needs to play with the VPN settings messes things up.
You would have to tell your computer and all your programs?, to us foxfi's proxy server. Would be easier to run a good vpn on your computer.
Does anyone of an app that can connect to a basic PPTP home vpn server? I have an old XP machine at home set up just for connecting to my home network via VPN which works perfectly on a laptop or my phone using the stock android vpn option. I use it to be able to have full access to some media services that require you to be on your home network. My issue is I can not find a way to use it with a fire stick since the firestick doesnt have a native vpn option and every vpn app i have found does not allow you to just enter a basic pptp user name and password type of vpn server.
Hello all,
I am trying to route all of my Android traffic through a VPN and then afterwards through a proxy.
I tried several methods to get this to work:
1. USB Tethering and Windows laptop mobile hotspot
I tried to use the connection of my laptop where I configured VPN and Proxy connection with proxifier through USB tethering and mobile hotspot on my laptop. Unfortunately my smartphone (Huawei Nova 2i) is only using the normal wifi connection, not the connection through proxifier, even though I set all system proxification within Proxifier.
2. Proxydroid
I tried to achieve this by using ProxiDroid. Unfortunately I can´t unlock the bootloader of my Huawei phone. If there is no way to do this with an unrooted phone, I would buy a new phone. It would be nice if there is an option to do this with an unrooted phone.
3. Mozilla addon
I could install an addon for mozilla to set a proxy connection there. I did not do this, because this would only work for the browser and I want it system wide.
3. OpenVPN + SandroProxy
This is the best option in my opinion, but I did not figure out how to do it properly. The idea is to use OpenVPN as a system wide VPN. All traffic would be routed through the VPN. Then in the next step I would route the traffic of OpenVPN through my proxy network.
This should work somehow I think, but I did not figure out how. Any information on how to achieve this setup would be welcome.
Best regards

I have created a L2TP VPN server. I want to use it easily on my phone. I know I can set VPN from Settings--> more --> vpn but it is not my favorite method. Because it is really annoying! I need a free simple application without advertisement to set my L2TP credentials and manage it from the app. The built in vpn configuration is really annoying; when I disconnect wifi I have to connect it manually, if I activate 'always on vpn' it disconnects with my wifi network up and down. I formerly used Psiphon with an HTTP server which I created. I need an app like Psiphon in order to set my L2TP configurations and manage it easily. I installed strongSwan but it does not support L2TP/IPSec PSK.
