Bypass internet restrictions in android? - LG Optimus 2x

Ok here's the thing. I cant access certain websites(mostly filesharing sites) due to my country's 'anti piracy policy'. Researched, n found out that they do it by manipulating the DNS. I can access them using my PC by changing the connection setting protocol n stop using auto dns server. I changed the preferred DNS server to Google's.
Then,is there any way i can do it in my O2X? Coz i prefer to get online using my fone rather than pc.
If anyone know how to do it,can u guide me step by step please? Really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
Btw im running CM7 RC1 with latest vork kernel. Bb 606 Ril 606.

It's easy for WiFi (advanced settings) but for mobile network connection this is the only method I know of:

VPN app
Do you try using a VPN app? Just try a free one such as KUKU VPN+ search it on google play and check out if you can access to blocked sites.

Do you mean tun.ko? its the vpn tunnel kernel module. Are you rooted?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
I am rooted and on 3.2 update. I have any connect installed, but when I go to connect get an error saying I don't have the tun.ko drivers.
I have tried both Kernals that are available, and even installed the tun.ko file with them, and still can't connect.
Of course the only iPad in the office can connect with no issues

Jumping in, with your indulgence please, as this is related. Where did you find the Anyconnect client for the Xoom? I'm not looking for warez. But, I asked our IT folks and they didn't know of one. If there's a legit source for it, I'd appreciate a pointer please. They directed me to try using the built-in VPN configurations (either of the ipsec protocols) but no joy yet...
On a whim, and after some further reading on a Cisco forum, I tried to download and install the new Samsung version of Anyconnect which is on the market. Unfortunately, installation fails. Just letting others know in case they were thinking of trying the same thing. BTW, I'm stock 3G.
So, still no VPN joy with my work's Cisco setup...

anyconnect for root users
That's the one I've tried, but I think there's something wrong on the server side as I can't connect at present.
I do know on the back end your Cisco ASA has to have the mobility license in order to be able to connect with your tablets.
We just installed this, but so far only i-Pads are able to connect
I might have to make the jump over to Tiamats new ROM, but want to wait till a few more bugs are worked out with it.
I was really hoping the Xoom was going to be able to connect with VPN, guess that's just not the case yet.
Ken~
This installs fine for me (awesome, i didn't know cisco finally put this out). However, I can't figure out how to tell it what Certificate to use. Anyone know?
I got this working with help from a friend... basically the problem is that the documentation sucks hard. Anyconnect doesn't use the android certificate store, you need to import the cert into the Anyconnect certificate store. To do that, I stuck this webpage up on my webserver:
Code:
<html>
anycon
</html>
Then go ahead and connect to that webpage and click the link. Anyconnect will pop up and allow you to import a certificate called mycert.p12 that is on the root of your sdcard.

No 2G/3G except for browser

Hi,
no app can use my mobile data connection, except browser. I once installed droidwall to do exactly this. But when i purge the rules/turn off the fire wall, other apps still cant connect.
What can i do about this?

No, i dont use any Proxy.
I changed to CM7 RC14 now. Still the same strange behavior even after a complete wipe. No mobile data except for browser.
Any ideas?
I had a similar issue here and solved by downloading on Market an App which configures the APN setting for my country. Is is called APN BRASIL and worked for me. Maybe you could search for a similar app for your country.

[Q] Airdroid

Hey, I don't know if any of you use airdroid to sync files via wifi, but I downloaded it because wifi file transfer quit working for me. However, this doesnt work either. My browser will say can't to server (have tried multiple browsers). I emailed support, but was wondering if any of you had some insight?
Adfree or adaway wouldn't effect this would they?
Thanks
AirDroid worked fine for me using the default port (and Chrome) . It's possible (and, I think, likely) that your router settings are blocking it in some way. Check those settings or change the port AirDroid uses.
Silly Question: Phone is connected to same wifi network and not using data connection, right?
I've also used File Expert's FTP share to transfer files a good bit. It works well and has an FTP client built-in so you can share between phones too.

I've been using samba filesharing without any issues from stock through revolt and now ginger 1.3. Definitely give it a shot.

It may also be some app that you have to block network such as droidwall. By the way, are you using at your place? Some public networks block it...

"Android: Viber Connection Issues
Posted by Viber Support on 31 May 2011 06:09 AM
When you place a free call via internet (WiFi or 3G) it involves quite a bit of routing and system updates. It is also dependent on the quality of both user's devices. Also please bear in mind that other applications may be running in the background of your device, or your friend's device, which may compete with bandwidth. And, be aware that all users do not have similar devices, and Viber may run better on some devices than others (please visit http://support.viber.com for a list of tested devices).
A weak or inactive connection can cause errors such as: "setup not being able to proesss and proceed", "contact list not visible or not properly updated immediately", "no clear audio reception", "no internet error message" (when in fact you do have internet running), etc.
Connection issues may be caused by different reasons such as:
* System upgrades on our end or no internet on your end - you will receive a "not connected to internet" error, you may have trouble receiving a registration code or Viber might ask for you to re-register.
* Viber friend is not connected to the internet
* Viber friend’s number is not listed correctly in address book
* WiFi Firewall settings
* Service provider issues
We recommend that you try to connect at a later time. If this still does not resolve the issue, try to reinstall the Viber app.
If you are using WiFi, and you have never been able to connect through it, it may be that your firewall ports are closed.
* WiFi Firewall settings:
Please have the systems administrator go to the WiFi firewall settings to make sure that the below ports are open for both sides:
1) TCP 5242
2) TCP 4244
3) UDP 5243
4) UDP 9785
Here is a short list of other things that might help if the above did not work:
* Turn your phone off, and then reinitiate it.
* Uninstall/Reinstall:
* Check that your contact phone number is listed properly for Viber calling
In order that your contacts see you as a Viber user and connect with you, your telephone number listed in their contact list must be the exact same number as the number with which you have registered with Viber and vice- versa."
I highlighted the ones that i think it might be causing your problem. I would check your router configurations...

[Q] Browser problem

Hi people.
This is my first thread and i have a problem with the stock browser, and many other like dolphin HD, dolphin mini, miren browser, maxthon, etc.
The browser show the webpages like older wap phones.
The problem start when i change my first rom from stock 2.1 and stock kernel to froyoPro later i try gingerDX.
tired of these problem i try to change kernel, i choose nAa v11 and the rom it's miniCM7 2.2 and the problem doesn't solve. It's strange because when i go back to stock kernel and rom the browser works fine.
Please help i know i'm noob but i search to much without an answer
Maybe if u give screenshots of your problem people here will understand what u mean bro..

i dont have any idea what that problem but maybe someone else can help
I'd suggest you to use Opera Mini
The first Website requieres Javascript.
And google MIGHT detect your Phone as a PC, so your Useragent could be messed up.
You can see the Useragent in the Advanced Browser Settings.
I tried all settings which may cause that but I didn't find any could cause that..it just looks like that the pages on the screenshots are not fully loaded..
And try to clear the data or reset the browser into default and see if it works..Or try other network provider first..

The pages are fully loaded, and i don't know what happen.
You seem to be behind a proxy that optimizes the pages for you.
If that's the case try to access web pages from another network.
On Dolphin you can go into Settings and Change what websites will see you as (PC, iPhone, iPad, Android).
Choose Android, and see what happens. If nothing changes, try iPhone.
