Compatible P2P applications

Hello.
I've been searching the interweb for file sharing clients that are compatible with the X7510 (in my case the O2 XDA Flint). Below are my brief reviews of each that I've tried.
Pocket G2 Pro: This is one of those fantastic little apps that was created and then abandoned, despite pleas from the PPC community, some years ago. This was basically a gnutella client similar to bearshare, frostwire, limewire etc. It worked well for small files (under 17mb I recall) and had a habbit of closing itself after prolonged periods of use. Unfortunately this app won't even start up on my X7510, and the apps domain (pocketG2.com) is now up for sale, so I guess there isn't a new version coming anytime soon.
WM Torrent: This is a torrent client similar to bit-torrent, u-torrent, vuse etc. It loads ok and the connection seems good but it only handles torrents, so it's not ideal for small files such as mp3s. I have unlimited data on my contract and started downloading a 50mb mpg file which had plenty of seeders (people sharing the file) on a GPRS connection. After several hours it had only downloaded 3% so I gave up. I will try this app again in a 3G area (if I can find one!) and see if it performs any better.
Mopiphant: This is another gnutella client that is popular with PPC users. I have tried several versions but none will open after installing them.
There seems to be room in the market for a gnutella client that is stable on this device. And lets face it, if any device could make use of file sharing on the go it's the X7510 with its huge memory, huge screen and meaty sterio speakers.
Does anyone know of a working P2P app for the X7510?
Phil.

Why?
this would destroy any data allowance you had with your providor. Its blatently against any TOS they have.
Use your desktop ?
O2 TOS state :
Data Charges
* For applicable tariffs with data capability: Unless a data or BlackBerry Bolt On is taken, your tariff will include O2 Web Daily under which data will be charged at £2.94 per MB up to a maximum of £0.98 per day (00:00am to 23:59pm). Once you have reached your maximum daily charge of £0.98, O2 Web Daily allows you unlimited use of Telefónica O2 UK Limited's Edge/GPRS/ 3G networks (as applicable to your handset), for personal internet use via your mobile phone. All usage must be for your private, personal and non-commercial purposes. You may not use your SIM Card:
o in, or connected to, any other device including modems;
o to allow the continuous streaming of any audio / video content, enable Voice over Internet (Voip), P2P or file sharing; or
o in such a way that adversely impacts the service to other O2 customers.
If O2 reasonably suspects you are not acting in accordance with this policy O2 reserves the right to impose further charges, impose network protection controls which may reduce your speed of transmission or disconnect your tariff at any time, having attempted to contact you first.

I quoted the wrong part, on that above link under "Data Bolt On Terms" it says the same.

Thanks for your feedback Embassy.
Lets assume that I'm a fully aware adult and therefore resposible for the mobile data contract I agreed to, and its usage. With this in mind - do you know of any working P2P apps?
BTW, this device is also WiFi equipped, so I could use a hot spot to do my downloading

None that I know of.
How about RDP into your desktop while mobile and download via P2P that way.
Install XAMPP on your desktop and you could host the downloaded file using FTP or HTTP and download from the device.
Could be wrong but pretty sure all those connetions would lag it out really bad, if you have peer gaurdian installed or run a netstat for example see how many connections are active.

I'm pretty certain I didn't understand most of that...
Are you saying I could use remote desktop to download the P2P files on my PC at home, and then use some kind of file-server (XAMPP) to copy the file to my PPC?

Mopiphant is emule network client, your right only bt works on ppc, we need to find some java apps or other code like python....
u got opennap too but i cant add opennap servers http://www.zdziarski.com/projects/zamar/

Thanks wolframio74, I'll take a look at that and see if I can get it working.

[APP]Pixie Network Monitor (Wireshark/Kismet for Android)

So... I'm rather new here and I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct forum to post this in (since I know it says "xda developed apps/games only"). However, I have seen commercial Android apps discussed here before... so... *shrug*.
Let me first say that I am not the developer... I just think this app should get some attention.
Pixie Network Monitor by 9bitlabs (would post a link but my account is restricted. ;-) )
It is a network monitoring app similar to Wireshark, but for Android. It is $4.99 on the Android market, it requires root, and it does not work on all phones (since not all phones can have their wifi put into promiscuous mode). There is a companion app called "Pixie Probe" available on the market for free. Pixie Probe will determine whether or not your phone is compatible with Pixie.
I have tested it out on my Evo (running CM6.1 RC1) and it seems to work amazingly well.
Pixie does not contain all of the features of Wireshark/Kismet. This is from the Pixie FAQ:
Q: What's the difference between Pixie and a desktop tool like Kismet?
A: The biggest difference between the tools lies in how they interface with the network. Kismet interacts directly with the wireless adapter and places it in monitor mode, allowing it to hear any packet over the wifi, even if it is not associated with a network. This can be problematic with some hardware, but many of the newer wifi chipsets work great with Kismet.
Pixie, on the other hand, is constrained by Android. Rather than expose the wifi adapter as an 802.11b device, Android actually hides all of that functionality: the wifi connection actually appears to system processes as a plain old Ethernet device. This means that we don't get monitor mode and we also don't get to see wifi-specific data, such as beacons and associate/disassociate packets.
On the plus side, Pixie runs in your pocket and that's harder to do with Kismet, unless you have very large pockets. Pixie is also significantly easier to set up for folks without Linux experience.

The Pixie website gives very detailed information about the app, so I suggest you go there if you want more info.
In any case, I hope other people find it useful.

[Q] Changing IP Address

I wanted to know if there is a way to set from what area your IP shows up as when you connect to the internet on your Android phone?
For instance, I have a T-mobile G2 and when I connect speedtest.net or an IP finding website, it shows the location of my IP address. Usually its close, sometimes its far away.
Is there any way to choose a static IP or range of IP's to narrow down where my IP is located? i.e. can I choose to spoof my IP to show me in another state? I'm rooted running CM6.1 so I'm down for things that need root access.
Thanks in advance for info/help. I'm gonna continue to research this as well.

Its going to show the location where the IP should be.
maxmind.com is a good lookup to see where the IP should be coming from. (background- they are designed for charging websites, your IP says you are in Nigeria, or Flordia, or wherever, but you are having your order shipped to Washington, so we need to check for fraud more carefully, or hulu and not allowing to be viewed outside US - but same applies to any country)
Especially on celluar, its going to depend on the cell network, your phone likely is behind their NAT. If the NAT is in the same city you are, its going to be really close.
Example Rogers in Canada has 2 cities as far as I can tell with equipment in Montreal and Toronto (when I was getting external DHCP addresses it was one of these 2 cities) Now that I have a static external address, I allways show as Montreal even when I'm on the West-Coast. When using the NATted addresses (10.x.x.x) it would allways show as Toronto (or Greater Toronto area) might have been Markham.
To spoof your IP to show you're in another state, I believe Giganews offers a VPN that will be comptable with just about everything, west coast US, east coast US, one in Asia and one in Europe.
This is going off memory, if I'm found incorrect, I'll edit the post.
Kevin

Thanks for the information. Makes a lot of sense. Now I just gotta figure out the proper way to set up the VPN on my phone. I've got to the VPN settings, I've just gotta figure out the proper setup
So basically the VPN settings on Android can accept any VPN address/info that I am signed up for? I don't really know if I wanna pay for a VPN and I know there are free alternatives, especially considering that I dont need any more services than what a free one offers.

Any and all of the free ones I've seen, are designed for computers, PC or Mac, they require software installed.
The reason I mentioned the Giganews VPN service, was because it is the PPTP standard vpn connection, so supported without a software application.
I am interested if you know of free ones that offer this.
Additionally, you also have to check to see if your provider blocks VPN connections on your phone. Rogers does unless you pay extra for a non-NATted IP. So its a trial and error. I know a few providers in the US have a VPN APN, which is designed for people using VPN services. I don't know which block VPN connections by default.
It should be compatible with PPTP and IPSEC VPN services.

Ok so I figured I would post my question here as this thread is already created and has keywords that pertain to my question/problem
Now I provide support for several end users and I need VPN access to their network/machine at a glance for the type of support I provide. I was thinking of something along the lines of something software based that would allow me to access their network (shared files mostly) but I cant think of anything that I can setup one time and not have to worry when they take the laptop/desktop home and their IP address changes or if their firewall is not properly configured.
Any solutions to this particular problem?
I was thinking of something Hamachi like but I do not need remote access I just need file sharing access and network access...

I know that Windows 7 and Server 2008r2 have a dial-less VPN that can be setup, the computer will connect to your VPN service, anytime it is on, and you would be able to share the files that way.
Or users dial the VPN whenever they log in, but that would stop you from connecting remotely after a reboot.
Ideally, they should be connecting to your server, and saving all their files there?
Not enough infomation to actually give you any other ideas, can PM me with what hardware and software you have to work with, mobile devices or not, ect.

[Q] Remote Administration of Multiple Android Handsets

My situation:
In my company we have about 30+ handsets currently running Android (standard and custom ROMs from XDA). The handsets include HTC Desire HD, HD2, Desire S and Desire Z. The users cannot be trusted not to brick the phones if they are allowed to download apps and modify them in anyway (not to mention they are business phones so shouldn't have facebook etc on them any way).
I've heard about admin tools which allow control of handsets remotely.
Requirements:
So, if possible, what i would like does something along the lines of...:
1: Blocks further apps from being added to the handset without a password
2: A lock to keep as many of the settings as is originally provided (wallpaper etc)
3: A master admin tool which i can remotely manage all the handsets from (download requested and approved apps, wipe, lock, locate and reset the phones if lost...etc)
What i have done before to stop the users adding further apps is register my email address to Android Market on all the phones, then changed the password using my desktop). While this stops new apps from being downloaded from the market, it does mean i cannot remotely roll out approved apps as they are no longer signed in to the account.
Is there anything out there which does any/all/some of the above?
Is there one tool which can manage all these tasks? Or will it have to be seperate apps like Norton Mobile Security (such as) etc?
Can anyone get their heads around this?
Thanks!

The market lets you download apps to a phone.
Lookout Security does all of the security tasks you want.

Thanks, that would take care of the remote wiping, locating and locking.
Does Android provide any corporate setup for administration of lots of handsets? Surely this is a niche in the market for some devs to jump on if there isn't something like that already.
And i know Android Market allows you to remotely download apps to multiple phones but i want to make it impossible to download through the phone itself. (so i can add apps but the user can't)

Something that performs like MFormation Enterprise Manager but avoiding the $20k price tag! (a tall order i know)

Hello,
Have you found any apps that fit your needs? Do you use them? If no, is your organization still interesting in mobile device management service?
I'm asking because I'm working for http://bloove.com (personal phone management service) and we're going to expand our offer to small and medium companies.
This new service will combine existing contact, sms, phone log and bookmark backup for personal phone with MDM features like centralized app management, location and wipe service etc.
We're looking for early adopters who will have a chance to add their custom requirements to the service and get this service for free for up to six months.
Please let me know if you're interested and want to discuss this further.
Thank you,
Rostislav
[email protected]

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A

I did something like this ...
I first installed openssh server, plus a script that checks a specific URL for remote access needs (had to do it that way since my carrier blocks connections on all ports).
The server side is a simple php script that you call like this: check.php?deviceid=[ID]. The script checks a DB to see if there is anything new for that device ID and acts accordingly. I implemented three features: Tunnel, Script, Install APK. So, If I want to install an APK to all devices, I just upload it on our webserver, and on the MySQL DB I add devices id = all, action=install, file=/apks/whatever.apk. If, for instance, I want to do something more complex on certain devices, I add: id = all, action=script, file=/apks/whatever.sh. I write the script, then all phones check for updates on this check.php every 5 minutes, if they find a script, they'll download and execute. If it's an APK, they'll download and install. If I insert a line with deviceID=[deviceid], action=tunnel, file=[PORT NUMBER], then the phone will SSH into a remote server and do a reverse port forward, on [PORT NUMBER]. Then I can just SSH into localhost:[PORTNUMBER] on the server, and I'll have a terminal inside the phone to do whatever I need.
This doesn't address the restrictions issue, but it does allow you to control the phones however you want.
Regards,
Almafuerte.

[UPDATE] All Android Wifi Tools In One Place

I have done some reading and observed some Android Wifi tools which could be useful to you guys.
I know some of you guys already know about some of these apps whiles others don't.
My First Wifi Tool is Dsploit.
Introducing dSploit
dSploit is an Android network analysis and penetration suite which aims to offer to IT security experts/geeks the most complete and advanced professional toolkit to perform network security assesments on a mobile device. Once dSploit is started, you will be able to easily map your network, fingerprint alive hosts operating systems and running services, search for known vulnerabilities, crack logon procedures of many tcp protocols, perform man in the middle attacks such as password sniffing ( with common protocols dissection ), real time traffic manipulation, etc, etc . This application is still in beta stage, a stable release will be available as soon as possible, but expect some crash or strange behaviour until then, in any case, feel free to submit an issue on GitHub.
Here are some screen shots http://www.dsploit.net/images/shots/1.png
http://www.dsploit.net/images/shots/2.png
And A Walk through Video http://youtu.be/HrQl1cG2Hq0
And you could visit their website http://www.dsploit.net/
My srecond Wifi tool I wanna Show you Guys is Anti-Android Network Toolkit
What is Anti?
ZImperium LTD is proud to annonce Android Network Toolkit - Anti.
Anti consists of 2 parts: The Anti version itself and extendable plugins. Upcoming updates will add functionality, plugins or vulnerabilities/exploits to Anti
Using Anti is very intuitive - on each run, Anti will map your network, scan for active devices and vulnerabilities, and will display the information accordingly: Green led signals an 'Active device', Yellow led signals "Available ports", and Red led signals "Vulnerability found". Also, each device will have an icon representing the type of the device. When finished scanning, Anti will produce an automatic report specifying which vulnerabilities you have or bad practices used, and how to fix each one of them.
This App is Kind of a paid App. But you can get the free version from here http://zantiapp.com/anti.html
Here is a link to the walk through video http://youtu.be/tKW-XV59-gk
My third Wifi Tool is Wifi Kill
Its an application for killing wifi connections, that is preventing users on that network from getting to their websites.
I couldnt find the website for this app. (Seems they dont have any). But you could download it from
Here : http://mediafire.com/?ue5itmf89w5h4x2
Here is a link to the walk through video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtaPF6NcOeo
My third Wifi Tool is Droid Sheep.
Its Actually in Two forms
DroidSheep [Root] is an Android app for Security analysis in wireless networks and capturing facebook, twitter, linkedin and other accounts.
DroidSheep Guard is another Android app for monitoring Androids ARP-table. It tries to detect ARP-Spoofing on the network, such as an attack by DroidSheep, FaceNiff and other software.
For Some reasons, the Doidsheep[Root] cant be downloaded from their website which is this http://droidsheep.de/
But dont worry you can find it here at http://depositfiles.com/files/ektsufdkl
On the other hand, DroidSheep Guard can be found at the playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...h.droidsheep.guard.free&feature=search_result
The next one is Android Netspoof
Description
Network Spoofer lets you change websites on other people’s computers from an Android phone. After downloading simply log onto a Wifi network, choose a spoof to use and press start.
Please note that there is no intention for Network Spoofer to include any malicious features. This application is a fun demonstration of how vulnerable home networks are to simple attacks, with permission of the network owner - DO NOT attempt to use Network Spoofer on any corporate or other non-residential networks (eg. at school, university). It becomes very obvious when Network Spoofer is being used on a Network, and use of Network Spoofer will be considered malicious hacking by network administrators.
It can be downloaded from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/netspoof/files/latest/download
There is another App called AoutoProxy
Description
The most complete proxier on the Market. Autoproxy allows you to use Market, Gmail, maps or surf the web even behind the proxy from your home/school/office.
It works by creating a transparent/intercepting proxier running on your phone that redirects web traffic to your proxy. Other apps don't have to be aware there is a proxy!
All outgoing traffic is captured, formatted and transmitted through your network's proxy. That means it works with market, all browsers, gmail, maps, and others.
This is App is a paid app but they have got the light version.
here is a link to it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mgranja.autoproxy&hl=en
FaceNiff
FaceNiff is an Android app that allows you to sniff and intercept web session profiles over the WiFi that your mobile is connected to.
It is possible to hijack sessions only when WiFi is not using EAP, but it should work over any private networks (Open/WEP/WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK)
It's kind of like Firesheep for android. Maybe a bit easier to use (and it works on WPA2!).
*** ROOTED PHONE *** is required. Please note that if webuser uses SSL this application won't work.
This application due to its nature is very phone-dependant so please let me know if it won't work for You
Use with stock browser (might not work with other)
Legal notice: this application is for educational purposes only. Do not try to use it if it's not legal in your country.
I do not take any responsibility for anything you do using this application. Use at your own risk
It can be downloaded from here http://faceniff.ponury.net/download.php
I will Be updating the list frequently.
UPDATE
So as i said, i would be updating this and guess what i have kept my promise.
There is this App called Intercepter-NG its another android wifi tool i find useful.
Intercepter-NG is a multifunctional network toolkit for various types of IT specialists. It has functionality of
several famous separate tools and more over offers a good and unique alternative of Wireshark for android.
The main features are:
* network discovery with OS detection
* network traffic analysis
* passwords recovery
* files recovery
Runs on Android >=2.3.3 with root+busybox
Looks better on high resolution, but completely comfortable on 480x720.
It can be downloaded from the playstore https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInN1LnNuaWZmLmNlcHRlciJd
Another important Wifi tool for android is Wifi WOlf
- PCMag.com Editors' Choice award winner for network utilities
If you are a network administrator or a network engineer that has any WiFi / wireless on your network then you already know that you need a good WiFi network monitoring / analyzer tool or toolkit to properly manage and analyze inside your wireless network. Without the proper network tools you have no way to determine proper functionality of your WiFi network or identify security risk that comes with having wireless technology inside of your enterprise corporate LAN. As a network administrator or engineer you already have many other responsibilities with your network such as managing servers, routers, switches, workstations, inventory management, asset management, bandwidth monitoring, troubleshooting... the list is long. Make sure you have a tool that makes your wireless network management easier!

It can also be downloaded from the store https://play.google.com/store/apps/...nByaXNpbmdhcHBzLmFuZHJvaWQud29sZndpZmlwcm8iXQ..
And one more thing, The app WifiKIll can also be used to redirect web pages to a specific site.
you can do so by first knowing the sites IP Address, then u open the wifi kill app and go to settings the select rejection method drop policy + redirect to.......
Afterwards click on redirect to IP and insert the Ip of the site you want to redirect to.
Note that None of these Apps are mine and all these apps require root, also i am not the cause of any damages these apps could do to your phone. Thanks
Enjoy:fingers-crossed:
But If you have any questions with these apps or questions on how to install any of them, feel free to ask.
Thanks once more.

A bit of help maybe please on Zimperium's anti
I had dsploit installed and stupidly uninstalled it because now I cannot find the last version apk anywhere.
Anyway, I installed Z's ANTI. Everything seemed to go OK. My android is rooted and superuser rights were granted to the app.
My problem is that when it runs a network scan it recognizes my router but no open ports and that seems to be the end of it.
Any advice?
