android firewall can make it as you wish

Not sure if it has the exact feature you desire, but the Avast mobile security firewall seems rather comprehensive.

Direct voip call (ip to ip) application?

Is there an application that will allow me to have a voice call directly with another android phone on the same ip network as I am without having internet access?
For example like Netmeeting on Windows, or Buddyphone which I used for this purpose yeeeears ago.
Thanks

Won't Skype do that for free?
No.. skype is the exact opposite of what I'm looking for because it requires logging in to their servers.

I've answered this question in the other post but I'll answer again. Try using pdroid. It allows you to set permissions for each and every app. Not exactly sure too what extent you can set the Permissions, but I believe it could be what your looking for. I've used it myself and I do know it will allow you to set permissions for every app. So it might be what your looking for. It would not hurt to give it a try.you can find pdroid in android apps and games,. Hope this is helpful. Hope it's what you need. Best wishes

[Q] How do I set WiFi proxy settings for use in Android Applications?

I have an Android phone and tablet (see my signature for models), both of which I use at home on my home WiFi network and at college, which uses a proxy server on their network to censor websites and whatnot. I can connect fine to the college's network through a web browser, but the applications on either of my devices cannot seem to connect using the pre-configured proxy settings. These applications include the Play Store, Yahoo! Mail, and various other applications that needs to sync. I have noticed that whenever I open a web browser on my Android devices, a popup box prompting me for my network Username and Password, and I have to press "Log In" to connect to the network.
So my question is this; is there a way to tell my apps to use the proxy settings and my username/password to connect to the network?
(I have yet to try an application called ProxyDroid - it looks like it will work, but I will have to try it tomorrow to see. It might have some problems working on JB 4.2.2.)

ProxyDroid doesn't work in 4.2.2, unfortunately.
Hi,
You should try Drony or SandroProxy

[Q] Firewall on VPN

Is there a good firewall app for Android, that lets you blacklist / whitelist applications (just like Droidwall), but that also works on VPN connections?
Unfortunately, Droidwall won't work on VPN.
Android 5.1.1, rooted

Looking for a simple app to use my existing VPN on SATV?

I have installed and tried several VPN apps from the Google Play Store using Market Helper, but they all seem to provide either free access to their own VPN servers, or they are subscription based.
I would like to input my existing VPN server settings to the SATV, but since there is no way to access the regular Android VPN settings AFAIK on the SATV, I am looking for an app that will provide the same options.
Do any of you know an suitable app?
Bump.
