what naming convention does vnc want for the server to connect to
if i simply type in my servers ip address (like i do on normal VNC) i get a "invalid vnc server specified, server should be of the form host:display" error, then i try ip address followed by port ie xxx.xx.xx.xxx:5900 .. and still no luck,
tks in advance
cheers

Found this info on PocketPCCity:
Just for you people. server_name:display, means ip address:display number. The port 5800 relates to display 0, 5801 to 1, 5802 to 2, etc. I'm running serveral x-server, with rfb on linux, and can succesfully access these port. Just a handy tip to work with...
still no Joy
Thanks, digger but that didn't work either,
just to recap.
I have the VNC server app installed and running on my pc (i can connect to it from othe vnc viewers on other PC's
but on my XDA i cannot
i try to connect to my server by typing in the server address as
nnn.nn.nn.nnn:5800
have also tried all of the following
nnn.nn.nn.nnn:5801
nnn.nn.nn.nnn:5900
nnn.nn.nn.nnn:5802
were nnn.nn.nn.nnn = the ip address of my pc running the VNC server app
is my naming convention correct ? if so then i can continue to troubleshoot in other areas
tks again
cheers

how do you connect ?
from a cattle ?
from a usb cable ?
from a seriel cable ?
using IR ?

Hi Rudegar
I tried over a dial up connection

I have created an SOCKS proxy server application to run on Windows Mobile phones. A SOCKS proxy is a proxy server that is capable of forwarding nearly all types of network traffic, similar to a NAT router. It is very simple to use. Simply type in the port you would like the proxy server to listen on (defaults is 1080), then click the large "Start Proxy" button.
In order to run this application you will need the .NET Compact Framework 3.5 installed on your device.
Some applications are SOCKS-ready and others are not. You can use FreeCap (freeware) to SOCKS enable any Windows application. ** FreeCap seems to have problems connecting to SocksProxy. Let me know if it works or doesn't work for you. **
I am *NOT* responsible for any fees charged to anyone for the use of this software. There is no warranty and no guarantee.
[UPDATE 2/25/2009]
I've completed the new version of SocksProxy. It implements socks version 4a. There is no security, so it will allow anyone to connect with any user id.
Please let me know of any issues you find.
[UPDATE 2/24/2009]
SocksProxy v1.0 Reboot
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've completed the new proxy server. It looks pretty much like the old one, but I've anchored the controls to the edges so it should scale properly with VGA devices.
I've written a new Socks 4a proxy from scratch and completed ditched all the old code. It seems to be working pretty well, though a bit slow. I think I need to increase the size of my read buffers. I will have to write a smarter heuristic for determining the size of the buffer per connection though. I have them at 128 Kb now. I need to grow each buffer dynamically according to how it's being used, that way I don't create large buffers for connections that are only transfering small amounts before closing (downloading a small gif or javascript file, for example).
I'll probably release it tomorrow after some more testing.
BTW: I'm posting this through the proxy right now!
[UPDATE 2/24/2009]
I've decided not to move forward with the J2ME version of SocksProxy. I will however be writing a new .NET CF version. The current version's proxy is based on code I ported from a proxy targeted to the standard .NET framework. Some features in the standard framework are absent in the compact framework. When porting the proxy I pretty much just did it as quick and dirty as I could because I really wanted something that just got the job done. I didn't care how stable or 'good' it was because I hadn't even intended on releasing it to anyone. Since it looks like there's still a lot of interest I will be writing a new one from scratch. Don't expect too much; It'll be the simplest thing that possibly works, but it'll be stable and reliable.
I'll be naming this version SocksProxy 1.0 Reboot. I'm not upping the version number because I'm really not going to be adding any new features.
[UPDATE 11/4/2008]
I am working on a J2ME version of this application. I will no longer be maintaining the .NET version of the application. The SVN repository for the .NET version will continue to be available. I have no plans on taking it down.
I have decided to switch to J2ME because I will be able to reuse source code in a future Android release -- that is, if Google or someone adds the ability for Android to have more than one IP address.
[UPDATE 10/27/2008]
There is a usage issue with the application with certain configurations of Windows Mobile and Activesync. It seems that when the Activesync host (your PC) has a connection to the internet the handheld device will prefer to connect to the internet via the PC's connection rather than its cellular connection. This completely eliminates any benefit to using the proxy. Does anyone know how to prevent the handheld from routing its internet traffic back through Activesync? Note that this is NOT solved by setting the "Allow data connections" setting in Activesync.
[UPDATE 10/27/2008]
I have updated the SVN respository (https://pchasco.homedns.org/svn/SocksProxy/trunk). Here are the changes:
* Changed "Listening on" box to list all IPs on the handheld
* Added an IP box. Enter an IP to listen on that IP or leave blank to listen on all.
* Rearranged form
* Added "Use selected IP" button to insert into the IP box the IP selected in the list of available IP addresses.
You can enter any IP address in the IP box, but the proxy will fail to start if the IP is not valid for your device.
Hi pchasco,
Could you explain a bit more what this does (and how it works)?
The reason I ask is that I'm looking for an application for the PPC which allows me to share its internet connection by pointing the Desktop browser' proxy to the PPC.
This allows me to be connected to the wired network and using this proxied browser to browse even the blocked sites ...
Can your application be used for this?
If so could you also explain how it works..
I've ran the App on my PPC, and clicked start, this gave me an IP address
next i hooked it up to USB and pointed IE's proxy to that address...didn't work
I also tried to activate the 3G first and/or with ICS activated
but both times I didn't see a IP address...
I'm probably doing something wrong..
Thanks
This is a SOCKS proxy, so it does not work in quite the same way that a normal HTTP proxy does. For internet explorer you'll have to open the advanced proxy options and fill in the information for the SOCKS hostort entry.
Can someone please explain a sample usage of this software on Windows Mobile?

Have you used this with ICS? In other words, share your internet connection with a computer and then have the computer connect via your sock proxy to the internet?

I am not sure why you would need to use both SOCKS proxy and ICS at the same time. They are both means to provide internet connectivity through your phone to another device. If ICS were an option on my phone, I would use it over SOCKS unless the client device did not support it.

Basically, I'm trying to allow access to two networks at the same time. So I want to adjust my settings in firefox to point to my WM phone and your socks proxy. Then my other applications and IE can use my LAN. Otherwise, to get my WM ICS to work I have to disable my LAN connection which I need for certain apps.
edit... I'm good with using it without ICS, but that doesn't seem to work either. No matter when I click start proxy, I get an IP of 0.0.0.0 and if I connect my computer via USB I can't ping that address.

Then setting the SOCKS proxy setting without setting any other proxy settings should work in Internet Explorer. I've been trying to test it, but my phone refuses to access the internet through the cellular connection right now; it's always going through my PC while activesync is connected. I can't get it to stop! The funny thing is IE on my PC is making its HTTP requests through my phone, then my phone is going right back through my PC to the internet!

That's what I tried... but the IP address I get is 0.0.0.0 from your app. What IP do you usually get back when you run it? Do you just connect via USB? If ActiveSync is running is that an issue?

I think there is a setting in ActiveSync that says "allow wireless connections when connected" sounds like that might be your problem.

Sounds like the same thing that is happening to me. I finally got it to give me an IP address, but only if my data connection is inactive. As soon as the data connection is active it becomes a 0.0.0.0 IP address. Bug?
I tried to establish the IP, then activate the data connection... still doesn't work when I enter the IPort into my proxy list for firefox.

I am not sure why you are receiving 0 as your IP address. Check in Settings->Connections->USB to PC that "Enable advanced network functionality" is selected.
Gave it another try
Connected to ActiveSync (AS) loaded the application
removed the AS connection, started the application
It showed me the IP address op 127.0.0.1 (localhost)
Stopped the App, initiated the gprs and started the App again.
now i'm getting an IP of 0.0.0.0, I restarted the App a couple of times but no dice
I also checked if the advanced network functionality was enabled and it was..

Hmm... I'm not sure what's going on here. 127.0.0.1 is the loopback interface-- It is only valid for your phone to connect to itself. If your computer attempted to connect to 127.0.0.1 it would connect to itself, not your phone.

Well, if I have time in the next few days I will take a look and see whether there is anything I can do. Maybe there is another IP address available on your device but for whatever reason I'm displaying the loopback instead of the external interface.
What happens when you set your proxy client up to go to 169.254.2.1:1080?

If you can't use ICS and want to connect to the internet from your desktop, you can connect your phone using USB and start this proxy, then you can setup your desktop connection to use the proxy to get internet access.
SOLVED - But I'm not sure how, I was redesgning the app so that I could put it up here for other leo owners to test and gave it one last go to take a screenshot of the error to show people what I was looking for and viola it starts working (I never changed the TCP code) sorry anyone who finds this who has the same issue but it just randomly started working!!
Hi fellow devs,
After a massive googling session I have not been able to find an answer to the following issue:
I am writing a TCP client/server app with my PC as the server and the client being my HD2.
I am writing the app in VB.net using the .net compact framework 3.5 and the windows mobile 6 sdk.
I just cannot get the following code on the client side to work over wifi:
Code:
Dim ParsedIPAddress As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.10")
Dim client As New TcpClient()
client.Connect(ParsedIPAddress, 7209)
I get the following exception:
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If I connect the phone via active sync it will work and I can send and recieve data ok so it appears there is no issue with the code itself.
While connected via active sync - if I turn off the server side app I get the following exception:
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
However the exception message remains as the original if I do the above but using wifi so it just is not able to establish a link at all (or not even trying) using wifi??
-----------------
I have tried:
1. Ensuring that windows firewall on the server is off and not getting in the way of anything
2. Ensured that my mobile has got an active wifi connection and can see the machine (wifi remote control apps such as GRemotePro work ok)
3. Turned off all other types of data connection (GPRS,3G) to make sure my mobile has only one route out
------------------
Is there anyone out there who has successfully got TCP to work with the .net compact framework and if so how???
Should I be using another class rather than TCPClient maybe the underlying Sockets class?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Prime.
P.S. I don't mind if people only have a solution in C# I'm happy to do any translation etc...
Socket class also fails
Ok so I've tried the socket class now as well and that fails in exactly the same way over wifi, ensured that I can ping my device and ping my pc from the device so clearly the underlying hardware is working just not for the TCPClient or Socket... Any ideas anyone?
Have you enabled port forwarding for the relevant port and IP address in your wireless router?
That's the only thing that springs to mind for me.
Thanks for the reply but...
Hey John,
Thanks for trying to help although unfortunately this does not bear any consquence in this particular situation, you only need to do port forwarding if Network Address Translation is going on between you and the end point. In this case the endpoint (IP + Port) is on the internal LAN with no address translation in between. It appears the the internal WIFI adapter is not being accessed correctly from the application i.e. this is an internal issue on the phone not an issue with the network in general as I can run the same code via active sync and it works also I can convert the project to a standard windows pc app and run the same code from a pc and it works. Oh and of course every other damn (this is really wierd) wifi app I've got works so something with the .net cf and wifi maybe??
Cheers,
Tony.
A development...
Ok so I have dug out my old Orbit II just to see if this was device related and low and behold it is ARGGGHHH!!! The app works just fine on the Orbit II over wifi.
Does anyone know of any policies, security or otherwise, that would stop the HD2 (leo) from being able to use wifi from the .net cf?

Generic reasons for communication failures
Hi
This is a pretty generic problem, I'm afraid you can't give an exact idea of where is the problem so I can't give also an exact solution.
Usually a communication problem is due to one of this three
1) The server does not listen or does not receive
2) There is a problem with the network
3) The client does not make the call
Type 1 should be checked trying to connect to the server with a PC or a laptop. You should be able to make the client run in a PC.
Usually when a (web) server has a (web) tcp service stopped, when you try to connect to it it rejects the connection (this is what that of "the target machine refused it" sounds to me). Start then the (web) service on the server. Change (web) for your application.
My advice is that you should have something in the server side where you could run a wireshark sniffer. Then you would see all the traffic coming from the PDA and see if your client is sending packets.
Type 2 are the ones that can be checked with a ping. Maybe there is a firewall somewhere dropping the packets.
Type 3 may be due to several things
a wrong code (I don't know, there is a lot of time since I made programs)
you're trying to connect to a dns name that can't be resolved. Try with IP address.
You have a wrong network configuration. The server should be in the same network but client is not able to get the server's (or the router's) MAC with the ARP protocol. So it doesn't make the call.
I hope it helps.
Regards
Hello to all.
I was trying to start this thread in Android Software and Hacking General, but got a warning about not having enough posts to submit a thread there, so I'm going to try here.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II phone with the newest Android version. My goal is to modify the system so that 3G and WiFi are able to run together, side-by-side, simultaneously without 3G being turned off. Now, every time I connect to a WLAN, 3G cuts.
[OK, the spam police won't let me post outside links; Google Mobisocial 3G Wifi Stanford to find the article I'm talking about.]
MobiSocial News wrote about a hack that modifies ConnectivityService.java in a rather crude way, but according to the author of that article, it works on a 2.x Android system. There's not much info about the hack, but it's at least something and sounds plausible.
I tried to follow the instructions; I downloaded newest Android source codes, modified ConnectivityService.java and built the kernel by following these instructions: [a link to source.android.com "Building the System"]. But unfortunately, make didn't produce a services.jar mentioned in the article.
---
Does anyone know anything about using 3G and WiFi at the same time? Is it even possible?
Every piece of information is valuable, so don't be afraid to post. Thanks!
Anyone?
If I was misunderstood in my previous post; I'm not looking to have simultaneous connections, I just want the mobile network device to be online while I'm doing something with WiFi. And when WiFi cuts off, for example in a train tunnel or something, 3G takes its place.
I want to do the same with you

Actually it is, I found this thread that describes how to do it on an optimus G phone, and based on that I was able to do in on vanilla android 4.3 as well (my rooted nexus 4).
You need to put a couple of scripts together, since you need a series of shell commands for turning this on and off, I recommend the wonderful SH Script Runner for this.
Here is what I did on my Nexus 4. It works perfectly but note that you don't actually see the wifi icon turning on, but if you run "netcfg | grep UP" you will see that the wlan0 interface is up and running (as well as the rmnet_usb0 mobile data interface, both of them will be up and will have the expected IP addresses) and you can access your local LAN while your mobile data 3g/4g whatever provides your default route to the outside world.
Code:
# enable dual-networking:
pkill dhcpcd
svc wifi disable
svc data enable
netcfg wlan0 up
cd /data/misc/wifi/.
wpa_supplicant -B -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
ip route add x.x.x.x via x.x.x.y # add any desired local route
# disable dual-networking:
ip route del x.x.x.x/x via x.x.x.y
pkill dhcpcd
pkill wpa_supplicant
rm -rf /data/misc/wifi/wlan0
netcfg wlan0 down
svc wifi disable
svc data disable

What's your Android version? Is the phone rooted? Did you try running the above commands I posted, and what was the output?
You could also try the similar commands that worked on another and post the output here.

Hi I'm running on Miui v5 4.1.1
I did try the above commands. But I'm not sure about the ip route you mentioned in the coding x. X. X. X via y. Y. Y. Y.
The response of the script was permission denied. I am definitely rooted and I gave permission to SH script runner.

First try the commands on the terminal (adb shell, or terminal app) and make sure to type "su" first, so that all commands get executed with root permissions. After you get things working without errors on the terminal, you can put these commands in script runner.
The x.x.x stuff needs to be replaced with the subnet/netmask of your home LAN, such as 10.0.0.0/24 or whatever and the default gateway (your wireless router) to reach it via.The route stuff assumes a basic understanding of networking... Actually you can remove the route statements, they are only needed if your home LAN is on a different subnet than your WiFi subnet... most home routers put everything on the same subnet.
What is the end goal you are trying to achieve by connecting to 2 networks?

Thanks you for your reply. First of all my understanding of networking isn't anywhere basic . What i did with the xxx was replacing it with the internal ip assigned to me, aka 192.x.x.x
For the yyy, I replaced it with the ip of 3g connection. Not sure what I am doing here. Please guide me here (I know the su part which I an required to do in terminal)
And finally my goal. I have Seagate wireless plus and itself is a portable wifi hotspot to its own content. I am able to stream pictures music and video from the battery operated hardisk. I can bridge the connection of the portable hotspot to my home wifi gaining xs to the Internet.
However while I am connected to the Seagate wireless plus, I cannot connect to my 3g. That meaning I can't have Internet on the go which is a very big limitation.

OK. You don't need the "ip route" command, since your WiFi interface will give you access to the Seagate as soon as you connect to it. And the 3G interface, at least in my case, provided default gateway to the internet.
Anyway, try the other commands one by one and see which of them, if any, give you any errors. The netcfg command should show you that 2 interfaces (apart from the lo - 127.0.0.1) are UP and with expected IP addresses if everything goes well.

As I said before, you don't need the ip route command, remove that line entirely!
When all is working, netcfg | grep UP should show you your wlan interface with the IP address given to it by the Seagate, and your mobile data interface with the IP address given to it by your cellular provider.

When i run the code line by line in terminal, i get an error message wlan0: interface not found or invalid
Do I run the code when connected to my hardisk hotspot? When exactly do I run the code.

If you try to understand the code you will notice it turns off your Wi-Fi and then turns it on. So actually you don't need to connect to the hotspot first.
Regarding the interface name, here is where you need to do your own investigation and figure the WiFi interface name for your own phone.
The netcfg command without any arguments displays all interfaces, and whenever you are on Wi-Fi, the relevant interface will be UP and will have your assigned IP address next to it.
Look at how much stuff I changed compared to the things posted by the other guy for the optimus phone. Look at his solution and be prepared to investigate and come up with similar amount of changes for your phone. I spent several hours trying different stuff for my Nexus 4, with my only info being the other guy's post. I read about netcfg and everything else googling various websites. You need to do the same and learn a bit about that stuff.
For all I know, the Optimus phone method could be closer to your phone than my method, perhaps. You have to do your own research and figure out the differences, then post them here to help other owners with the same device as yours.

Yes. I notice that the wifi switched off and then turns on again. Alright I do some research on my own! Thanks again.
Hope that I will get some breakthrough soon

Hi
I finally got it working. When I am connected to seagate wireless, I have to fiddle with the connection settings inside wifi settings. I assigned a static ip and assigned the gateway to 0.0.0.0
As for the ip, I set a different internal ip with the last digit increased by one. Example 172.25.0.2
Now I am connected to both 3G and LAN.

hey people,
here is the issue. i am able to connect to my wifi at home no issue. when i try to connect at work it says connected but i have no access to the internet. the bars are grey with the up and down arrow going crazy but the bars never turn blur. sound like its not authenticating. i noticed when i connect its always trying to connect to the same DHCP IP. i asked the network guys to release the address manually but it does not seem to have helped. any ideas. i do not know much about DHCP so i could be blowing sunshine up your a$$. ; )
i own the i757m so there is only 1 radio to choose from.
talk to your network administrator and ask them to verify if the router is actually seeing your phone.
it maybe trying to connevt but the router is not acknowledging the phone is sending a valid request.

I've had this in situations where free wifi is given out. My phone connects to the router but not the Web until I've registered with the service provider. It's not your phone it must be an error in your log on details, password etc

Maybe their DHCP server is acting up. Try setting your IP address manually (assuming you know the rest of the networking configuration as well).

i also tried that. should have mentioned these things, sorry. its really irritating me. i see its connected and it says its connected. it seems like it connects to the router but the DHCP server will not authenticate if thats makes any sense.
