1. you are in wrong section!
2. Sorry but i have no idea what this DROIDVPN is.
Questions belong to Q&A Section!

definitely wrong section. Just google it. vpn is needed to connect between two networks with encryption. Do you need it at all?

Moved from development

Make sure you have working tun.ko in system/lib/modules

Cyanogenmod 4.2.1

Just a quick question because I can't remember lol...
During the setup screen after a fresh wipe does it have the skip button? My service is out and I wanted to wipe the data and start over, but if Im not able to access my data the wipe isnt necessary...
Thanks in advance to the person who gives the answer
All CM builds I've flashed had that function. It's a rooted ROM so you can use ADB (to open the settings app and connect to wifi) even if it doesn't.
OK another question how do I get back after setting up wifi and whatnot if I push the skip to finish the registration?
get back where???

[Q] Help!! Flashed Cyanogen Mod on my Galaxy Mini, now have several problems!

Hi, I'm new to the forum and fairly new to flashing phones, although I fix computers so I was a quick learner.
Anyway, I have recently flashed my Galaxy Mini with the cyanogen mod I found in the galaxy mini developers sub-forum on this very site and come across a number of problems. Some of these I have fixed using my own best judgement and others, however I'm still having trouble "cleaning" the functionality issues.
For the record can I just say, I love the mod and my thanks and congratulations go out to all the devs involved. Well done!
So, my issues so far...
wifi issues - sometimes hangs on the obtaining ip address part
Android Market - installed both old and new versions (including the download link on the cm 7 thread) - installs fine then asks to create new account, I click ok and it closes the app
Creating sync accounts in settings - gmail, hotmail etc will not add (error: Setup could not finish. Unable to open connection to server
Downloading from internet - I have constantly been clearing the data and cache of the download app and browser and after a couple more downloads I have to repeat these steps. Anybody know a permanent fix for this?
Email: also not completing user accounts registration
I have searched and searched both this site and others for solutions to no avail. I love this mod and am very impressed with the tools included and my one wish is to be able to use it to the best of its ability. When I installed the update from sd card, my installed apps were also deleted (from the sd card), which I found strange, but thought hey, no problem if I can just download them from the market again right? But obviously since I cant run the market app, here lies my problem.
I hope there is a solution to this problem that doesn't involve reflashing my phone. I would be saddened to have to give up on this mod as I love nothing better than to get the most out of my phone.
Also just to clarify, I followed every step detailed in the CM 7 thread exactly as outlined and the flashing process was a pass for the cwm and the update completed successfully for the CM 7. I also cleared all data and wiped cache partition before and after each step as outlined.
Thanks for any comments/suggestions and I look forward to joining you on the forum.

No idea about wifi - not used it.
For market crashing, try this:-
Settings > applications > all > Market. Try clearing data from this.
You ought not have to create new account for everything. Creating /adding a single gmail account will work for email and market and address / contacts, google+, maps, etc.
Having to clear browser cache / data - I do not "download" much, but browse a lot - including the picture / video rich sites. Have not much problem, though occassional clearing cache / restarting the browser does help speeding up page loading. Probably has to do with low device memory. Did use other third party browser - like dolphon (opera is the reason I moved away from Nokia), but am back to stock html viewer now.

Thanks for your input. I managed to set-up gmail under the email app but it wouldn't accept my hotmail account (it used to before the mod)
I have lots of free memory on both the device memory and sd card. I also have plenty free ram. My phone runs like a dream now to be honest.
I have just tried an apparent workaround by installing youtube on the phone, however although I can use it no problem, when I try to add an account I get this - Unable to authenticate user (before it even asks me to input my information!)
This really sucks =(
I can't sync or download anything through market.
Also, I have cleared the data and cache several times to no permanent avail, as I mentioned in first post.

Wifi -issue...i have this sometimes.But even in official 2.2.1.And this issue is when reconnect at same brodband or at remebered wifi networks.I solve this issue sample.
-Turn of your phone Wifi,disconnect your brodband from power energy,wait 10 seconds,plug in againr brodband,wait him to load ~1-2 minuts,after reboot your phone turn on again wifi and manual connect to wifi.After auto-reconnect will work a wile with no issues.
For other sync email and contacts you need to isntall googleapps.zip via CWM at first run setup your Gmail acount.After no issue with others.
Also you need to make a correct install of CM and googleapps.zip.
1.)Install official 2.3.4 KPI using tools from samfirmwares.
2.)After install CWM using ODIN like in tj's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167750
3.)Install CyanogenMod via CWM
4.)Boot up your phone and disconnect from 3g network and connect to wifi
5.)Reboot phone in recovery and flash googleapps.zip via CWM.
6.)Boot your phone and setup gmail acount.
7.)add your acounts and sync.
If you make this you shall not have any kind of issues with acounts sync ,only sometimes with wifi.

Hi, thanks for your suggestions - I've been waiting all day for a solution like this. I already have cwm installed as I said in first post. I will try reflashing as a last resort.
However, I am trying your theory on installing the google apps zip file through cwm now and will let you know how it pans out. Thanks!
Damn. Always something goes wrong! Log from cwm ; Finding Update package>Opening update package>verifying update package>E:signature verification failed>Installation aborted. Grrrrr
Previous installations have been fine through the choose zip from sd card. However, on attempting another zip (flash 10.2) also doesn't verify either (worked before)
Whats going on?? I'm at my wits end =P

You can toggle "signature verification" in CWM recovery menu. (Not sure where exactly that option is - but recovery menu is not too deep.

All, I am using CM7 for Galaxy Mini 09102011 and I have ony one problem:
Somehow the MAC address of the Wifi device in the phone is changing every time I disable and re-enable Wifi connection. This was a problem, since because of that I had to disable MAC address filtering in my home network just to prevent myself always setting the new MAC address in my router's MAC filtering "white list".
What I observed that the changing part of the MAC address is always the 2nd half (meaning the last 3 pair of hex numbers)!
Does someone know a fix how to prevent Wifi MAC changing?
Some people say that the don't have this experience with the previous release of CM7 for Galaxy Mini (01102011).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

I haven't noticed this kind of problem before with CM7 personally and I wish I had a fix for you. Perhaps it may be better to back up and try a reflash? Assuming you haven't already tried that of course!
Sorry I don't have any other methods but I noticed nobody is replying to your question!

Yes, this problem is not there in CM7 01102011. You can try flashing it after a nandroid backup. I had similar problem with latest (09 10) CM7 so I restored my previous backup and everything is fine now...

Super easy NOOB guide to enable tethering on Moto Droid ?

My uncle has the Droid 1, he lives in a different state and he wanted me to send him instructions on how to get the free wifi tethering. I typed up these instructions, Is this all he needs to do? :
--
1. Download Z4Root (I'd send him the APK)
2. Open it and click Perma-Root (tell him it takes a few minutes)
3. Download Superuser Permissions from Google Play (is it called Android Market still on the Droid 1?)
4. Open Superuser, let it do its thing (is this step necessary?)
5. Download Free WiFi Tether (attached APK)
6. Open, click the tethering icon, click "Allow" when superuser prompt pops up.
7. That's it! It will show up under "AndroidTether" on your computer's wifi connections.
To change the name or password-protect the WiFi, hit the Menu key and go into settings, "Change SSID" to change the name of the WiFi network, and tick "Enable WiFi Encryption" , then click "Change PassPhrase" to set a password.
To stop tethering, click the icon again, and again click "Allow" on the Superuser Permissions. This is the last time you'll have to do this, in the future it will allow it automatically.
---
Did I miss anything? Or is this fool-proof?
Use teamviewer
You are better off using teamviewer.
Send him the files that you'll need, and also the link to the teamviewer android app. Once he installs and runs it, you should be able to gain access to his phone and do the stuff for him. THat's much easier.

Are your comments related to the LG G4? I don't understand the connection between your Boost Mobile LG Stylo 2, and the Sprint LG G4 discussion?
WoW
The directions pointed me to the right direction, no mention of HOW I found a download link, nor the fact a gui screen for username/password would be involved. Lets see, yeah also the fact using admin in username with nothing in password field GOT THE download....
Do you see a link posted for ny firmware?
Details like these being shared can, NO DO make the difference for others especially in a situation of having a device bricked...
But all your interested in is trying to point out something like your THE MODERATOR ON XDA & what? Didn't take the time to [email protected] your "thanks" meter but giving this poor attitude your exhibiting its probably 0....
Go figure
