hey guys,
I'm currently using a galaxy note and i was wondering if there's any way to disable my internet but to keep me connected to the local network when I'm using a wifi connection? thanks in advance.
use a firewall service like droidwall from the playstore. and apply the rules with whitelist with none checked. You need to be rooted.. or you can modify your router settings and give the phone a static ip and then from access restrictions disable http, https pop etc access to that IP
thanks alot, droidwall works just fine :good::laugh:

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how i go about creating a hidden proxy? I tried looking at the settings of the at&t hidden proxy but can't seem to figure it out...
The problem is I cannot use the proxy setting under connection settings because it is already in use. My cellular operator has a monthly data plan of 100MB for 7,5€, but is limited to http traffic. This limitation is enforced by the use of a http proxy.
I'm running a http proxy server at home and would like to chain the proxies so that all requests would be formated to go to my server, through my operator's one. Is this possible?
Alternatively, does anyone know of a program that would allow me to chain proxies?
Thanks
I would also like to know if it is possible to create your own hidden proxy.
I use my tilt on T-Mobile and am also using the proxy to allow me to get unlimited internet access with the T-MobileWeb (Formerly T-Zones) for 5.99 a month.
However, using the proxy I am unable to use Apps such as remote desktop, windows live messenger, etc because for some reason they don't work with the proxy.
I was thinking that maybe using this hidden proxy instead of putting the proxy info in the connections settings would allow me to use these apps.

Try using Mobile Profiler: http://www.iaccarino.de/silvio/stuff/MobileProfilerReadme.htm

If you cannot properly setup a visible HTTP proxy (for WiFi), how could you even think about an invisible proxy?
This device is crappy.
Almost
This looks like the beginnings of an excellent application, however, does anyone know of a program that will automatically switch various settings based on GPS location? I have been digging around for months trying to find a solution that will allow me to set up various "profiles" based on my GPS location, e.g. silent/vibrate, medium brightness, gprs connection enabled all other data connection disabled, while I am at work, and wifi on while im in major metropolition areas, and off while not, etc etc.. is this a pipe dream or has anyone stumbled across something similar?
also Im not sure why you want a "hidden" proxy, but this might be your solution:

Gmail just used "100% of your airtime". Can I make it only connect using wifi or direct active sync connect?
If it's a FAQ, point me at the thread and accept my apologies

Searh forum for NoGPRS.cab
Do a search for NoGPRS.cab or NoData it will allow you turn off your phones need to call out through GPRS or Media Net. It will then only use wifi to go out to internet.

What I really wanted was individual config, so that say
my blackberry app would always use wahtever was available hspda,3g,gprs,wifi,bt,active sync, but gmail could only use wifi or bt or activesync.
I was wondering along the lines of a proxy, use a differnt address for different typoe of connect
proxy1 - any service
proxy2 - restricted
proxy3 even more restricted
Proxy depending on connection??
Hi,
I would like to configure different proxy options depending on the connection, something like:
1. If cradled: use cradle internet connection, proxy 1 (namely the company proxy).
2. If wifi connection: no proxy (usually cofee shops with free wifi)
3. If no connection available, use GPRS (proxy 2, configured according to operator)
Is there any way to do this? It would be perfect for me!! And I'm sure more people must have this kind of needs.
Thanks a lot!

I have no trouble connecting to my private VPN (pptp) and
check e-mail (set to use work network) and pocketputty
and so on... But how on earth do i set Internet explorer to
use my vpn-connection?
ps WiFi
Not possible?
Is there any way to set a proxy address to Wi-Fi connection?
Or is there a way to add proxy ro IE/Opera/Youtube?
My School WiFi required a proxy to access the net.
Help will be appreciated.
Start Menu->Settings->Connections->Connections
Under "My Work Network", clic on "Set up my proxy server" and then... setup your proxy ^_^.
i thought that is for the gprs?

Yes this is also what I had thought. I have to set up a proxy in addition to the SecureW2 software client that I have to configure in order to connect to my University's Wi-Fi. I can set up SecureW2 fine, it will connect to the network, but I'm unable to set up the proxy properly.
Already tried the method still can't access internet.
Called HTC Tec support just now, they say you can only add proxy for gprs but not WiFi.
Any mod to add proxy to WiFi?
bump.......
This is very important, can anyone help?
Wifi Profiles Tool
Just try WifiProfiles from RStein - very convenient
is there a way I can work the built in VPN client to connect to a VPN using IPSec mode
i'm kind of a noob regarding this issue
i have the directions on how to set up the connection in an iPhone using the IPSec mode
i have
> server address
> account name
> password
> group name
> secret
for the connection
now, how do i work this into the android client
i tried configuring using different combinations of this info above
but it says "Unable to connect to network. Try again?"
i have a rooted samsung galaxy s 2.2 stock froyo
any help is really appreciated
tia
edit: the handset is technically a samsung captivate, although I don't suppose it'll make a difference
Unfortunately the stock Android kernel won't work with a VPN requiring a Group Name. If you've got a google account (eg a gmail address) you might want to add another star to issue 3902 to ask for this to be fixed.

It can be done if you replace the firmware with something which includes the tun device. The Galaxy SII supposedly includes this out of the box.
The alternative is to reconfigure the VPN to use L2TP/IPSec and authenticate with a certificate rather than preshared key.

Sorry those two links, well, aren't links. Being new here I'm not allowed to post links in case I'm a spammer.

Using only the built-in VPN client it's not possible to connect to a Cisco VPN.
I made a small How-To (Link) to get this working on 2.3.3, but I think this way should basically work for FroYo too. Maybe you should give it a try
