Hi all!
I'm trying to connect to the tor network with my SGR.
I was reading something about this in xda, but for the SGR didn´t find anything.
In the orbot official page, ( https://www.torproject.org/docs/android.html.en ) sais that with this app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.torproject.android ) we can get access to the tor network.
We need a rooted phone, and a rom (in the page names the CyanogenMod rom ) that supports iptables.
Well, now I'm running the lastest version of Adam's CM 10.1 (4.2.2) and the app works (it says that I get connection to the tor network) But the router to this network fails. I can't use any internet connection.
I try to find something in other XDA forums (in SII forum there is something... but I didn't find my error, and nothing about it) but I only find that in Jelly roms, is needed a fix for work. I try it, but not working....
My question is. Is there anyone using this app? And if someone knows about it... please can help me?
Thanks to everybody!!
(sorry for my english...)
I used Orbot on GB and it worked like a charm. Just like SSHTunnel did. Since ICS, SSHTunnel is broken (I was sad to see this and had to find out how MAC address changing works. ), even in CM. Maybe this issue is related to that.
Thanks Adam for your answer.
With Orbot App I can use whatsapp and the Orweb browser only. But all other apps can't use the tor network.
Probably Adam you're right about the ICS problem with tunneling is rellated with this problema
Thanks!!!

Hi.
I've just set up an Ad-Hoc network so I can use the connection in the kitchen, and whilst my PC finds it fine, but my HTC Sensation won't even detect the network.
Apparently this is a problem with Android?
Is there anyway to enable the ability for Android to detect Ad-Hoc networks on the HTC Sensation.
Have the same questions. Searching the net for a couple of hours doesn't give me any answer please help

Hey, best way I have found to use my Sensation in an AdHoc network is to create the AdHoc network via your phone. As long as you have root access, install Barnacle WiFi Tether and run that. It will give you an AdHoc network discoverable by your laptop

this Problem occures because Android filters the ad-hoc networks from wifi search results , means Android discovers them , but not showing them to you !!!!!!!!!
there is a patch for Desire HD that i used on my Incredible 2 ( working 100% ) called ( DHD_Adhoc_Support.zip ) link in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386601&highlight=AdHoc+Enable+Networking
there is another one for sensation called ( Ad-hoc Sensation-Ad-hoc.zip ) . i don't remember from wher i downloaded it . i don't have sensation phone to try it , but i am sure it will work . Update link http://www.multiupload.com/A6AGJVX7A0
this patch will replace your original file in your Rom , so do a nand before you try
All sense Roms i tested have problems with wifi ???
there is a small yet powerful Software Called Connectify Pro that does three things :
Acts like an actual hardware Router ( Not software networking )
toggle wifi with a single click for either ad-hoc or hotspot
automatically does all complicated configurations for all types of network to fit with your firewall and windows
And more , i can't do without it
hope that would help , Please hit thanks if you found it useful for you

Thanks for your explanation. Unfortunately the patch for DHD does not work on ICS. Do you have another link for Ad-hoc Sensation-Ad-hoc.zip cause the one you gave is no longer available. And I found other links but also not available.
Do you know if the Ad-hoc Sensation-Ad-hoc.zip work under ICS ?
Thank you
I had exactly the same problem and after many hours of testing and failures i manages to find a solution that gives me what I want, connect my HTC Sensation 4g with my Ubuntu's 12.04 ad-hoc network!!! (I thing it can work with other platforms too)
Since i have posted the solution to another thread i will give you the link of the thread.

Hello everybody!
I have managed to change the Wi-Fi MAC address of my device and now I share this technique with you. With this method, you can change your address permanently!
What is a MAC address?
A Media Access Control address (MAC address) is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications on the physical network segment. It may also be known as a burned-in address, an Ethernet hardware address (EHA), hardware address or physical address. (Source: Wikipedia)
Why would somebody change his/her MAC address?
- To access the internet where it is restricted to particular addresses.
- To hide his/her illegal activity. (Though this is not effective enough since the Android system sends product information and a lot of other things to the Google servers and I'm sure that previous IP addresses could be searched for if somebody does something really nasty.)
Is it legal to change the MAC address?
As far as I know, it is. However, I firmly discourage you on doing anything illegal with changed/unchanged MAC.
Let's do it!
What do you need?
- A rooted device.
- A kernel with MAC address changing support. (I include my ICS kernel (version 3.1.10) for those who want to try it out and the method of implementing it into other custom kernels.)
- A file manager that can explore the root filesystem.
How does this exactly work?
Normally, the Wi-Fi driver gets the MAC address from the built-in chip then it writes the address to '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' and '/data/.mac.info'. This is the original burned-in address. This cannot be changed with software modifications, but only by soldering off the chip from the motherboard and rewriting its contents. Our Wi-Fi device is a Broadcom BCM4330. It has very good built-in features and the open source driver can be found in our kernel sources.
There are two different options in the driver (READ_MACADDR and RDWR_MACADDR (actually, there is a WRITE_MACADDR option too, which stands for creating the two files I have mentioned before)), which enable us changing the address. I tested both and found READ_MACADDR better. By enabling it in the kernel, you get some options regarding MAC changing.
Before you change your MAC address in any way, turn off Wi-Fi! I recommend writing down your original address somewhere (just to be extra secured). You can always return to your original one using the second method (read further) or by flashing a kernel that doesn't have the patch.
- If you flash a patched kernel and delete the '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' file, the driver will generate (!!) a custom MAC address based on some predefined rules (The first 24 bits are common in all generated addresses.).
- Of course you can set your own custom MAC address. Do this by editing the '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' file with a file manager. If you change it to an incorrect address, the system will automatically use the original (burned-in) MAC.
For kernel developers who want to enable this:
Find '#define WRITE_MACADDR' after '#ifdef CONFIG_MACH_N1' in 'drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/src/dhd/sys/dhd_sec_feature.h' and insert '#define READ_MACADDR' after that line. This is for ICS kernels (version 3.1.10), but the patch must work on GB ones too. You just have to insert the define somewhere else (I didn't look into this.).
(I count on you guys in implementing this! )
I attach my prebuilt (secure, MMC_ERASE_CAP disabled) kernel for trying out this feature. It is an ICS kernel (version 3.1.10).
Every custom modification to devices have risks. Use this at your own risk!
Have fun and enjoy!
Thanks!
Just tried patching the kernel, it works! So, this feature will be included in my next kernel.
Before flashing the patched kernel, when I turn off wifi, delete .mac.info file, re-enable wifi, the MAC address is not changed.
However, after flashing the patched kernel, after I turn off wifi, delete .mac.info file and re-enable wifi, the MAC address is changed!
Thanks very much for the useful guideline from Adam77Root :good:

If kernel supports only we change the WIFI MAC Address, we can not use it on all the kernels...

I have looked into the sources of your Wi-Fi driver (the same BCMDHD) and it seems it doesn't support it. Maybe this is a Samsung-only feature.

I think your best bet would be the galaxy ace forums. You could search if there's an existing kernel with this functionality or else you could direct one of the kernel developers there to have a look at this thread.
I'm a beginner, plz explain in detail such that I can do it.

Hello experts,
since a long time I'm trying to fix my mutating MAC on a Huawei U8860 (so called Honor).
Your Thread gives me new hope. Atm I'm running a custom rom (baidu v.5, ROM 43) on my device.
Do you think, it's possible to insert the phrase into the kernel-source to make the MAC fix again? The wlan-chip is nearly the same as in your tested device (bcm4329).
What else do I have to patch? Is it necessary to write the MAC (seen on the label under battery) into any config-file?
I apprecheate your help - thanx for reading...
Works on Samsung S4 mini with CM 11, however I need to reboot after changing .mac.cob even when deleting .mac.info (which does not automaticly returns), as turning off/on WiFi isn't enough.
I guess the READ_MACADDR option is missing, and at one point I'd like to make my own CM modification. Or is there a more simple solution?
I'm new here..

but whenever I try to connect to any Vpn it makes my phones to reboot.
Even droidvpn and other Vpn softwares are also behaving in the same manner.

Now the problem of reboot has been solved and I was able to connect droid vpn.
but now I m facing some problems like after getting connected with droidvpn Stock browser and other browser like opera are not working but on playstore internet is working just fine.
And when trying to connect with openvpn it don't connect as soon as it gets to assign the IP openvpn drops the conection without any warning although now the problem of reboot has been solved.
guys now I m totally confused what to do. help me

Can someone please explain why this file specifies a static proxy host (127.0.0.1) and proxy port (8)?
What does your ipconfig.txt file show? Why would these settings be necessary on the Xoom when it's not like that on my Galaxy S3 phone?
Sorry for the noob questions but I'm rather new to rooting and am learning as fast as I can.
I'm running EOS JDQ39 Nightly 176 on a MZ602. (edit...updated to Nightly 177). Same issue.

I've found that something in the build is modifying my wifi Proxy Hostname to 127.0.0.1 and Proxy Port to 3128. I can change the settings to NONE and everything works fine, but upon reboot they are switched back to the manual settings.
Is anyone else seeing the same thing? Is this normal behavior for a custom ROM?
Update: Problem solved. It was Kaspersky Mobile Security app changing the settings. I uninstalled the mobile version, installed tablet version and all is well again. Guess they don't want me using my mobile subscription on my tablet.
Hi All
Anyone with the P5110 running PPPWidget with Cyanogen 10.1 ?
Is this just a config of the APN details? Its on T-Mobile uk
APN - general.t-mobile.uk
USERANME - user
Password - mms
any help or guidance much appreciated!
UPDATE: Ok so it looks like after a reboot and another attempt this IS actually a lack of drivers problem. Can anyone suggest a Jelly Bean Rooted Rom that will work with PPPWidget or simply have the APN/Mobile network settings so that I can get this working Please
Many Thanks

Hi
thanks will check out the links. From Josh - PPP Widget creator - and rereading his forum in day light it is clear that he does not tackle custom roms, obviously there are too many when you stop to think about it.
so two options seem open to me -
1 get these files for the rom "ppp_async", "option" and "cdc_acm"
2 go to stock ROM that PPP have already got working
Will read the links and see if they help clear up which direction to head in.
Jarope
NEXT kernel has option, ppp_async, and usb_wwan kernel modules. Is cdc_acm really necessary?
Any suggestions on how to install this on my archos g9 101 withi this rom?
