Anyone try to revert their net proxies and see what happens? - HTC EVO 3D

About a day ago I got a PRL update to 21081 and decided to go back to the original proxy settings because my internet speeds and signal were still really slow. My speeds are back up to about where they belong I think.
Yall should try it and see what happens. I know I'm very happy with it. Far more than I was with the proxies out.

Seriously. I had such connection and signal strength issues when I took out the proxy info, but when I put it back in, it bumped the speeds back to where they should've been in the first place. I recommend at least trying it.

What did you put into your proxy I messed up I didn't save the original settings like I should have

Default settings are:
RTSP proxy IP = rtsp.vog.sprintpcs.com
RTSP proxy port = 554
HTTP proxy IP = pd.vog.sprintpcs.com
HTTP proxy port = 8085

mine suck with or without the proxies, though I've noticed that it's impossible to stream a Chicago radio station I like if the proxies are programmed
as with everything, different people get different results

The same type of thing happens to me with YouTube. Works great without the proxy
boom!! from my shooter

The main reason so take off the proxies is to be able to stream certain things off of the network.

[Q] Proxy Servers OMG !!!

OK people... some of you people much cleverer than me PLEASE tell me there's a way around this.
My internet at home runs through a proxy server, so I have the IP address and port.
This internet connection is broadcast using wifi around my house. My PCs can connect to this just fine, using the IP and port in my Windows networking configuration.
My Vibrant will NOT work. Here are the scenarios I am dealing with :
If I connect to the wireless I can see my home network, and browse Windows network shares on my phone just fine.
If I go into the wireless | advanced | proxy settings (I am running a Bionix 2.2 ROM - Onyx 4.2 I think) and set my proxy IP and port then I can browse the internet in the default browser but NO other apps will make an internet connection. Odd since the proxy connection seems to me to be attached to the wireless connection, not the browser specifically.
So I installed and configured transproxy 3.8 beta (which doesn't seem to be vibrant specific, but installs and configures OK), and entered the same details and enabled the proxy connection, and NOTHING, including the default browser, will make an internet connection.
In all cases my connection to the wireless network itself is perfectly fine.
I've spent a couple of days trying to find a sensible solution to this, but have found nothing helpful.
Anyone out there had any similar experiences, or better yet found some kind of awesome solution ?
Very much appreciate any answers.
Ok before I give up completely, no one has gotten a Vibrant properly connected through a proxy server? It would at least be something to know it is known to be impossible, then I could stop obsessing and concentrate on being annoyed?
Anyone?

are you sure you use a proxy server? I've never seen a home network that uses one. A NAT firewall / router isn't a proxy server.
If you are running a proxy server, what do your proxy server logs say?
Can you access services on other than port 80? (email for example)
Proxy on a home network isn't out of the norm. I know guys who run them to block certain sites from their kids. Yes I know there are other options out there, they just decided to use a proxy server.

I know I am reviving a old thread, but I am also looking for a solution to this. I have tried using AutoProxy with no luck. It configures OK, but when it is on it is as if I have no network connection at all.
I don't need authentication, it is a HTTP 1.1 compliant proxy and all I need is host and port. In my case I set up a RabbIT4 proxy on a VPS linux host in a data center with multiple redundant tier one network providers. My proxy minifys HTML, JavaScript, and CSS - then gzips it. It also replaces ADs with a 1x1 transparent gif and re-samples all images to a quality 20 jpeg.
I used to run an ISP and we did this as an optional service for our dial-up customers. It REALLY improves slow connections.
So anyhow I would appreciate it if you let me know of any solutions you found this might work. Anyone with ideas please chime in.
Try flashing a different rom and see if you have the same problem....... It may be as simple as a conflict with that rom.
I have never heard of a case where this kind of problem exists. It sounds like a rom to wireless router conflict, but assuming it is exactly what you say, then if the setting are set for example, to have controls on access then, it would stand to reason remove them from the server side it should resolve the problem. But I would look at trying a different rom 1st,
The proxy works great on my desktop, and the phone's ROM has the option to set a proxy for the Wi-Fi connection (which works). The issue is I don't need the proxy for my Wi-Fi, that is fast - I need it when I am on the edge network, which is often.
I can't change ROM, Trigger 3.3 is too perfect for me to budge. I have both busybox and iptables, so I don't know what is up.
EDIT, I have tried 3 more apps with the same results, either they don't actually set the proxy and I have net, or they do set it and I lose connection. To be fair I have only been able to test when on Wi-Fi and I could set that from the ROM options, I need to try testing when I am on cellular - I just don't think it is going to make a difference.

Proxies can be your friend, my friend! Imagine getting about 30kps on edge and your trying to look something up real quick, but the pages keep timing out. Meanwhile right next to you with the same basic connection is me, happily surfing away.
Why, because instead of sending my request to the website it went to my proxy, sitting in a class 3 data center in Los Angeles. My proxy made the request for me with its OC3 Internet connection, then took all the white space out of all the HTML, JavaScript, and CSS - then it gzipped it. It also converted all images to highly compressed low quality jpegs. Finally, it sent me back the reduced size data (reduced by about 78% in fact) and all the processing happened in the blink of an eye.
With a fast Internet connection the proxy just gives you lower quality pages with twice the page load time, but on slow connections it can be up to 5 times faster. Hmm. . . 5 times faster, where have I hear that before?? Oh yea, AOL, Earthlink, and others were promising that with their "Accelerated dial-up". Guess what?! This is exactly what they where doing. It is an old Dial-Up ISP trick. That is why I know how to do it. Now if only my phone would co-operate. Friggin proxies!

Do tell [10 char]
Build prop edit but I dont have a server to test with...any chance you could set up a generic account on your server to test with? Pm the details instead of putting in open if you can.
Basically adding the entry
Code:
net.gprs.http-proxy=yourproxy
To the build prop. Im not certain if there are any other lines I need to add but would like to try.

I lost the VPS server in the data center I was using. For best results you want the proxy to have a much better Internet connection than what is being proxied. For example - my connection in the data center was 100Mbs both up and down. When I proxied something that had the basic bandwidth of a dial-up connection in the neighborhood of 32-56kbps the speed boost was about 5 times faster. Doing the same thing for my 5Mbs cable connection was actually about twice as slow, meaning my page load times in seconds showed doubled my average total time to completely load a page and speedtest.net showed about half the bandwidth.
So this trick here is the proxy really needs a VERY, VERY good and fast Internet connection - like you get from a good hosting provider. However, if you just want to test connectivity you can try setting up your own proxy.
Here is what I was using http://khelekore.org/rabbit/ - This runs via Java, so it should work wherever you have Java available. I have successfully run in on FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris Unix, and Windows.

Well this is a HTTP1.1 proxy, so you can pick any open port you want other than port 80 and it is HTTP traffic. So regardless of if they are using port blocking or protocol blocking, there really is not much way to keep you from using/running a proxy.
Any recommended other ports(like commonly open ones)

Certain port numbers are pre-assigned to particular applications by an international body called IANA, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority.
8080 is assigned for HTTP-Alt, so it is the most commonly used and rarely blocked
1080 is assigned to socks (as in socks proxy) so the same applies
Just avoid a port number below 1024 so you don't conflict with a commonly assigned port and you should be fine.
I have an awesome idea...because I can't figure out how to set this ish up..set it up on your connection..i know it will be slow but just for proof of concept, send the details for access and i'll test it out..or you can edit your build.prop and test it. yep..unless you know an easier to setup one.

[Q] Accessing local intranet

Running Vanilla AOSP Gingerbread 2.3.3, finally managed to get this thing to talk to the local network here at work (it's PEAP authenticated, TnT Lite won't see it).
Now I'm running into the issue of not being able to access local intranet sites with my browser. Instead if just takes me to google search.
Running Dolphin HD right now. Any ideas? I'd really like to use this tablet at work to access the local intranet. If it won't do it, that's going to be a problem.
I would download the program ipconfig from the market and make sure you are getting the correct ip information on your network. Getting the incorrect DNS server can cause this issue. You can also downlond ping from the market and try to ping the internal web address. Just a troubleshooting step that I would starti with.
I was able to ping it using the Terminal Emulator, so that is working at least.
Well...I am getting my Gtab deliverred via fedex tomorrow and will be able to test my local intranet sites with the same setup and hopefully be a little more helpful. I will keep you posted with what I find,
Ok, I was wrong, I can't ping. I was pinging a server that is exposed on the external internet (Oops). The internal-only servers are unreachable. The DNS servers, though, are correct.
This is interesting.
From home I can access my work email through Exchange for Android, no problems. However now that I'm online at work and on the internal network, it doesn't work. I suspect it's because it's on the internal intranet now instead of trying to route to it through the internet.
I suspect that, while Vanilla 2.3.3 AOSP supports PEAP, it doesn't really support PEAP.

Had the same problem and it turned out to be the Proxy settings.
Got it working.
Now running VEGAn 5.11 and it connects just fine. Not having the issues with the email anymore, either. However some of the intranet sites only pull up if I know the IP directly, apparently the browser has a hard time with port redirection on the URL (it doesn't care for 'evolutionsc:8080' very much at all).
Now I just need to find a browser that can handle JIRA without formatting issues.

[Q] Speed up 3G/download speeds on Optimus V? PLEASE READ!

I'm getting crappy download, upload, and 3G connectivity speeds on my Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V. I'm rooted, running CyanogenMod-7.2.0-BACKside-IHO-KANG, Build ID: eng.jerry.20111122.082819, Build Number: GRJ90 (11222011/VM670), and Kernal Version: 2.6.32.9-v3.3 [email protected] #1, and Android Version: 2.3.7.
I've read that flashing Franco Kernal may help a little bit with network speeds, but that was for the Optimus S. The Optimus S & V are pretty much the same, so would it be safe to flash Franco's Kernel with the ROM that I'm using now?
I've also read that dialing ##3282#, and editing the HTTP PD Port to value 0 and Address to 0.0.0.0 would then increase download speeds by 0.20-0.60 MBPS, but that was for the HTC Evo. I tried dialing to service code ##3282# on my dialer, and nothing happened.
Finally, I also read that doing a PRL Update manually and inserting/replacing Virgin Mobiles PRL file with a new and updated PRL file will significantly increase signal and speeds, but its risky, and requires depth to do so. Also, it allows to connect to Verizon's towers, therefore it would then not allow any data connectivity for browser, market, etc.
So, folks, my question is, is there ANYTHING or ANY WAY I can improve my download/browser speeds? Would downloading a proxy app from the Market work and apply faster speeds for downloading on my phone?
Thanks for any and all help, as it will be greatly appreciated!

It is super difficult. And really it'd be like putting a supercharger on a pinto. Sounds great when you tell your friends, but you're not going to win any races. The real problem is sprints network, and the fact that we buy the cheapest service available from people who lease a very small percentage of their bandwidth. I get 50- 125 kbps consistently. Not allot to do besides try another carrier.

Yeah for real! That's no joke lol I might try doing a PRL update tonight, but that's a big maybe. I used to get 200kbps download when I first got with Virgin Mobile with the LG Optimus V, now it seems my speeds are slowly deteriorating. And it doesn't help that Virgin Mobile is gonna bring a data cap on their 3G in 2012 to only 2.5GB, after that, they are gonna put a maximum set download speed cap after the customer uses up the 2.5GB in the month. Which sucks for me bc I'm always on Facebook, Linkdin, Twitter, browsing the market, web, downloading, etc. :/
Well social media doesn't take up very much data at all, it's the downloads that might get you if you use them a lot.

ok thanks. i may try it. still a little skeptical as a few of the comments mentioned that it broke their wifi and that the developer didn't respond to their emails.
franco's kernel is for the msm7227 chipset (unless he built one for the OS I'm unaware of,) the OV/OS have msm7627.
they are NOT compatible.
I got nasty side effects back when I flashed a msm7227 kernel on my OV for experimental purposes. it took a couple of days before it would boot consistently again even though I put a compatible kernel back on it immediately after it locked up ugly from the wrong chipset compiled kernel. It would freeze on boot until the battery was pulled for a minute or two.
I can get much better download speeds in a debian chroot on the OV with multiple download threads, using axel, but I don't know of any way to multithread downloads in Android.
As an example, my average DL speed ranges from 1-30K/sec. With axel, I can pull down over 100K/sec, with no other variables obviously changed. the Android browser very rarely goes over 100K/sec on my OV. (I am in a lousy service area.)
SetDNS (or other similar apps) "speed up the connection" by taking some of the guess work out of trying to find the resource on the web.
Most of the slowness in wireless comes from the fact that a wireless network is like a hub (in that it's a shared medium) so if two or more people transmit at the same time there is a network collision (two or more signals interfear with each other keeping the tower from understanding the request) per TCP/IP protocal all devices involved in the collision must back off for a random amount of time (to ensure they don't all retransmit at the same time again) and try again. This effect grows as the size of the wireless network grows and the more people who are on it. It effects cellular much more than wifi as you can have many more people on a cell tower as it covers much more ground.
***Intermission***
Now when your phone makes a DNS request (usually the browser, but some apps as well) there are actually many steps involved in trying to turn a url into an ip address, there are mutliple ways other than dns to turn a url into an address (most of which are legacy but it still tries anyway) trying all of these ways in addition to trying to find a DNS server means multiple request on the network which increases the likelyhood of collisions thus increasing the latency and causing timeouts (this is why sometimes your browser will start to load a page and then just hang there for awhile.)
***Almost there, Hang on just a little longer***
Now back to setDNS, this app allows you to specify a dns IP address (instead of it trying to find one) thus forcing it to use that address before trying anyother method, so your phone browser (or app) doesn't waste time looking for a dns or trying legacy methods. Thus reducing the request and collision/timeouts on a network, overall making your phone load stuff much quicker.
Works well enough that I use the web version of gmail and google reader instead of native apps (though native apps are generally quicker as they don't have to load the ui everytime you open it and sometimes the app will use an ip instead of a url, though some apps use url's in the code because the resources at needs have dynamically allocated (and thus always changing) ip addresses.)
Does anyone know if the Turbo/Supercharger scripts actually work? I assume any difference seen is minimal and also it may wear down your battery even faster. Battery life on these phones is already precious.

[Q] 4G connection to POP3 used ipv6?

This morning I was confronted with something weird. My phone all of a sudden could not connect to a remote VPS server via POP3. It would just say No Connection.
The same phone however could connect to everything else, including other services on the same remote server. And, it could connect to other servers using POP3. If I switched to WiFi, it then connected just fine.
Drove me nuts trying to figure out what the issue.
Obvious things were checked, firewall, pop3 server etc... to no avail...
So finally, I figured that Verizon was having some weird 4G problem related to port 110.. I had the POP3 server, listen on a secondary port... Still nada...
While looking at the POP3 Server configs, I saw that they now had support for ipv6, but that by default it didn't listen to them. So I changed the configuration and bang.... the phone connected...
It was apparently trying to connect to ipv6 since the time I found it was failing.
Wonder if anyone has run into this.... Looking at the logs, my phone is the ONLY device connecting via ipv6, everything else is using ipv4.
Well this turned out to be pretty simple.
IF you publish an AAAA record for a host, and you are using Verizon 4G, it will use the AAAA entry for the host in liu of the AA record.
In my case, this had surprising results that once I figured it out made sense, but at the time caused a lot of confusion as to what was the trigger for the action that was taking place.

Yes.. you learned the hard way that LTE was rolled out with native IPv6 (and preferred stack too). Pretty smart to setup a new network using IPv6 and save us the headaches of upgrading later after the fact...

[MOD] Native Hotspot Hack

I used the following method to get the native hotspot working. I have used the app 3 times over the last few hours and it has worked every time. If someone could confirm this, I would appreciate it. I am currently on MeanBean.
Edit: Just for shets and giggles, do a speed test first. Mine improved by about .5mbs
Edit#2: This mod will remove the update profile/prl from settings.
In addition to the steps here (which are most likely in every ROM now):
I deleted the following from system/app (do a nandroid first- deleting these may or may not be neccessary. It was just the first thing I tried) :
HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_SPCS.apk
HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk
HtcOMADM_Tool_SPCS.apk
HtcSprintService.apk
Then from the dialer:
Enter ##3282#
Select edit mode and enter your MSL
Select Data Profile
Disable Reverse Tunnel Preferred
Hit the back key
Select DSS
Change the proxy server IP to 0.0.0.0
Change the proxy server port to 0
Hit the back key and select Advanced from the main menu
Select RTSP/HTTP setting
Change the RTSP proxy IP to 0.0.0.0
Change the RTSP proxy port to 0
Change the HTTP proxy IP to 0.0.0.0
Change the HTTP proxy port to 0
Hit the back key twice
Hit menu>commit modifications
Let the phone reboot and you should be good to go.

It shouldn't break media streaming if you use zeroes. I've had my settings at 0 and 0.0.0.0 for a while and I can stream media over 3G. I only ever had problems when I left one of the proxy settings blank instead of using 0 and 0.0.0.0. Blank entries cause errors in Google Play, YouTube, etc.

I was actually going to mention in the OP that alot have people may have thier RTSP/HTTP set up. As I am sure you already know, that was a speed hack that goes way back. My radio was already set up that way as well. I think the trick is in the DSS settings and the Reverse Tunnel disable. I don't know if the OMADM spyware plays a part in it or not.
Alright it is 7:38 EST. I have been running this hack all day. If someone could please confirm, I'd be mighty appreicatve. Screenshots below.

If I turn off native hotspot and turn on WiFi Tether, WiFi Tether works immediately.
As an aside, I tried this only out of curiosity. Unless you are paying for hotspot, I honestly wouldn't use it even if it did work because WiFi Tether works fine and I don't trust that the Sprint software doesn't have some spyware in it where they can tell that you are tethering (even IF you delete those apk's). Using the native hotspot, it's possible that tethering can be detected and reported to Sprint. Maybe not (I'm not making a claim that they can "sniff you out as I have no proof), but if I wasn't paying for hotspot, out of an abundance of caution I don't think I'd trust the Sprint software.

Seems to be buggy today. I got a 67 error twice upon starting wifirouter then it connected after closing it and immediately restarting it. I read something about a corporate ip for DSS, I am going to try and dig that up and try it.
just wanted to add to the reports, worked for me too! :victory: Nice!
Thanks ya bish!
Anyone able to report if it works with LTE? I was in 4g earlier and cranked it on and the 4g logo didn't leave. However, I didn't have my laptop or my touchpad to confirm whether it stays or not.
