Anyone have any issues with VPN setup on their rooted Edge 40 Pro? I tried to setup a new VPN and get a message that there is already an always on VPN running and to remove before new one can be added. Problem is there is no VPN setup already.
I have Magisk with safetyney, systemless hosts, debloater & liboemcrypto disabler modules installed. Adaware, but switched the local web server off. Nothing else that I can think of that might affect VPN setup.
Any ideas, gratefully accepted
Looks like this may be a feature of the current release. There is no VPN option for me under settings network & internet. Someone else posted the same issue on the Lenovo support forum. So will see what support come back with.

I have gone through the steps in the development post for [Module] tun.ko for stock 2.6.32.9 (for openvpn/vpnc/etc), http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013513. I am still unable to connect to my companies Cisco VPN router. I have rooted my Atrix and confirmed that tun.ko is running. Every time I try VPN Connections, it will not connect with no response after an attempt. I have also tried VPNC Widget which tells me "0:unexpected operatorError: root access missing! Waringin:'Advanced Routing' feature missing - VPN Conectivity might be lost after a while"
VPN access is all I am missing to get RDP working, at least I hope as I can use it on my home domain with my Windows server.
I am somewhat new to Android devices, other than tinkering with my old AT&T Tilt with Android 2.2 on NAND. Any help to resolve is much appreciated.
I am still unable to connect through my company's VPN. I have found out that we use a Cisco 3000 Concentrator. If anyone else has had luck with this model, I would like to hear about it.
I had a lot of issues getting mine to work too..
After hours of hunting and lots of logcats later I figured out VPNConnections is very picky about your busybox version. Something to do with the output of the ps command.
Check this thread (Mostly my last two posts on page 5): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13859822
Cliff Notes version:
I got it working with VPN Connections .6, Busybox 1.17.1, and the tun.ko posted by rozzco in that thread.
BB 1.17.1 is available from Stericsons BB installer under alternate versions.
If you need the APK for it or the VPN app lemme know and I'll post it.
FWIW, I never got VPNC widget to work. I had your same error,
I tried your suggestions, using the specific versions. Still no luck. Look at logcat, it appears to attempt to connect but ultimately finishes with "process stderr: no response from target".
scoob8000 do you know what VPN device through which you are connecting? I don't know if it is a issue with the Cisco VPN 3000 Concentrator we are using. There was a mention of retiring the device, but they do not know when or with what it will be replaced.
Did you try this one?

That is the VPN Connections app scoob8000 has mentioned.

From memory I think it's juist a old 26xx series router.. (Don't quote me on this lol)
It almost sounds like your at least hitting the network. Can anyone try to see your attempted connections on the concentrator?
Working IPSEC VPN Client for Cisco VPN Concentrator
I know this is an old thread, but thought I would post an update anyway.
I recently started looking for a VPN client I could use with our Cisco VPM Concentrator, and ran across the one mentioned in this topic, VPN Connections. I installed it from the same link also posted by lhurtado earlier.
I think this may be a newer version than what was available at that time, though. Either way, I've got it working without any issues, and I'm able to VPN into my network, and use RDP without any issues.
I did try this on a non-rooted Asus Transformer TF-101, and it did not work. I only got a "Failed to Connect" message in VPN Connections. I'll have to see if I can find the logcat mentioned previously for any information on why it is failing, but I'm guessing the stock Kernel/ROM does not have tun.ko.
Here's the specs on what I've got:
Acer Iconia A500 (rooted), custom ROM (Taboonay 2.2) and Kernel (HoneyVillain 3.4)
BusyBox 1.19.2
VPN Connections 0.99
2X Client
Cisco VPN Concentrator 3005
Hope this helps someone else who is looking for a VPN client that works with the Cisco VPN Concentrators.
As long as your kernel support tap/tun configs, you can use the VPN Widget. I use it with our cisco equipment at the hospital I work for. It works like a champ! You will need to get your information to get it to work properly but its the only one I have found so far to work out of the box (with the proper kernel).
As for the OP, being this is an old thread I sure he gave up- however if he was trying to RDP using the hostname, that is not possible (without hackery). Always use your IP until we have CIFS support. NetBIOS name are not resolved on a linux platform without it. I use RDP/VNC with my VPN over 4G almost daily.
Beating a dead horse
OK...First off, thank you to everyone for looking into this.
I'm a Network Engineer that has the pleasure of supporting a Cisco 3030 VPN Concentrator from the stone age. For those with Iphones we just give the Facutly/Staff the IPSEC/PSK and use the native VPN client and all is well.
The Androids (which I'm a die hard fan of) don't work....UNTIL version 4.0.x arrived.
There is an app called VPNCILLA (or for those rooted VPN WIDGET) that works with the old style concentrators. VPNCILLA has a 10 day trial, but afterward is a $4.95 one time fee.
They both work flawlessly and are easily setup.
Just wanted to pass the word in case the one person in the world out there is still trying to get it to work (like me).
Thanks

Hi
I have updated the Tab to Touchwiz today.
I read that Cisco VPN was meant to be available - and yet I can't see it.
Am I missing something?
Do I need to download from somewhere?
I tried AnyConnect ...is that the one?
It does not seem to work with our VPN Setup
M
I'm with you. I don't see a Cisco VPN app, and the native VPN seems unchanged.
I downloaded the one from the market and it worked. It is listed as Anyconnect. Tab 10.1 is not listed but it works.
Does it only work with certificate mode? Our VPN is set up with group password
Our network at work uses Group Secret IPSEC Cisco VPN with RSA Secure ID cards. I'm currently lead tech on the IPAD2 project to get all our executives using IPAD2's. We got them working without the anyconnect software using the built in Cisco VPN on the IPAD2. It connects faster than anything I've used before. Flick VPN on at the switch and it's there as soon as you put in the password. Very slick.
I was hoping for something similar on the Galaxy Tab just so I know it works. I'll download the update over the weekend and give it a shot early next week.
Once we get that working, I'll just have to get Citrix connectivity going and I'll be laughing
Did you look under Setting>Wireless and networks>VPN

Hi
yes I checked under the VPN settings - but they do not seemed changed since the update. Nothing seem to match the credential I need to input like a group password authentication
i can confirm also that its not there :/
Dang. I was really hoping TW had this as advertised. I can't connect to a lot of university services from home without AnyConnect. Part of the reason I picked up the SGT10.1 was to read PDFs I downloaded from EBSCO for my research.
Cisco AnyConnect for Samsung devices is the VPN that was referenced as being supported after the update. It's an SSL VPN client. If you are using IPSEC then I think you can use the native Android VPN.
From my understanding, SSL needed deeper access to the OS in order to function and that's why the TouchWiz update is fixing it... because somehow TouchWiz has access to those areas of the OS that were locked. It already worked if you had root... same deal I guess. Deeper access.
Please keep in mind the following:
To use the Cisco AnyConnect, you will need to download the app from the market. Once you do this, you must make sure your ASA has the AnyConnect Mobile license on it. If it does not, you will not be able to use AnyConnect on your Tablet.
I have it working on mine, pre-TW and will test it after I install TW.

And I had it from the market from before and can tell you that after the TW update
it's able to ping our VPN server properly and properly prompt for login details. Now to get IT to enable the license for access....

Moving to Q&A
I have a problem with VPN. Read a lot around, learned that I can't use PPTP in i5500 ('cause of a bug in Gingerbread, they say), but instead should use only L2TP. (I found nothing said about OpenVPN, so I guessed I could try it as well, since there's already the option of it in the menu.) Well, now I managed to configure my VPNs and managed to create connections to some services. OpenVPN vpns just disconnect when applied. While L2TP vpns connect OK (and stay connected until I disconnect them), but I can't use internet at all, regardless of what app I'm using. Any idea why this happens? Is it my phone, or is it a VPN issue of Gingerbread? I'm using the latest stable CM7.2RC3+ v2.8 ROM release.
Does anybody has any solution or any outside link related to this issue?
Hi all, first post since I lost my last account login. On to business:
First off, I'm running an HTC One XL which doesn't seem to be an option in the user CP, whatever.
HTC One XL, rooted.
TWRP 2.7.1.0
4.4.4 Paranoid Android 4.6 Beta 1
Minimal GAPPS, just the framwork and play store.
Xposed Framework running Xprivacy
Orwall forcing all traffic through Orbot
Full disk encryption.
The problem is that I want to install Adblock Plus and have all traffic, WiFi and mobile be filtered for ads. I just can't seem to get it working.
I install Adblock, even allow it SU, I've tried turning on 'Local Traffic' in Orwall, forcing it through Tor, keeping it fenced and allowing it to bypass Tor. I've added a proxy address of 'localhost' on port '2020' of both the WiFi connection and my APN. Nothing, Orbot connects as usual but no traffic is getting through, I think Adblock's local server is being blocked somewhere but I don't know where.
I'm sure it worked briefly after I first installed it but then my phone randomly rebooted and I've not got it working since.
I'm very happy with my build up to this point with security and anonymity being very strong in the setup. Adblock would really put the cherry on top.
Help?
EDIT: Thinking about this further, I realsied that both Orbot and Adblock Plus are both proxy services and need to be configured in series such as:
WiFi or Mobile connection -> Orbot -> Adblock Plus
In order to configure a proxy in Orbot requires root permissions, something the Orbot devs strongly suggest you do not do and I'm inclined to agree. Therefor I've decided to use a Host file solution instead, maybe this thread will be of use to someone if they stumble upon it via a search engine. I hope so, I've spent far too many hours on this already.
Hey I just reverted back to stock from Cherish OS, kept having way too many issues with the ROM rebooting or just freezing. I managed to get hotspot working on Cherish by editing the build prop to include:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
then pushing adb shell: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Was working fine minus the crashes.
Now going back to stock I havnt had any unexpected crashes but I cannot seem to get the tethering to work anymore using magiskhide prop config. Does anyone know what else needs to be done to get wifi tethering working again? It looks like the DUN APN setting on my custom APN does not stick around after saving it, I dont know if it was enabled on Cherish OS somehow or what the difference between the two set ups would realistically be.
Edit:
Solution Provided by lentm:
"If you're rooted, try using VPN Hotspot: https://github.com/Mygod/VPNHotspot/releases"
Just enabled wlan0.
Still looking for a solution, If someone can point me to where I might need to start to resolve this I would appreciate it.
Ex; does it need a custom keneral? or Radio?
What is the limiting factor, that doesnt allow the connected device to get internet?
If you're rooted, try using VPN Hotspot: https://github.com/Mygod/VPNHotspot/releases
I can confirm the linked app works and replicates the built in Wifi Hotspot feature. I have it running on a T Mobile, bootloader unlocked, rooted, stock firmware, and on Android 11. Worked with my desktop, other phone, and Smart TV. I do not have it as a part of my plan. No VPN, port, or other nonsense to setup on the client to get it working. Just put in the WiFi spot password and off you go!.
Thanks for the link! I was never able to find a way to get the built in one working with out an app of some kind. I have no idea what would be needed to patch the factory hotspot to get it working without an app.

Great. BTW, I think the reason why it's recommended to use with the VPN (such as AdGuard) is to hide the tether usage.
I was a bit skeptical, but after I enabled the wlan0 toggle it worked! thank you soo much I have been struggling with this for a while.

Something to note here I wasn't using Adguard and had no issues with the hotspot vpn app. I wasn't using the "Temporary Hotspot" toggle in the app either. Using the wlan0 option gave me Internet on any device I tried while on T Mobile service / Towers. I went out of town and I'm now roaming on US Cellular indicated on my notification bar. This hotspot method stopped working for me. I could connect to the hotspot but no internet. After some research I found using Adguard does resolves this as you mentioned. In the VPN hotspot app you must choose "tun0" as the upstream interface.
