plz..

plz sumbody tell.
i really want to knw..
its really imp.

same problem, also seeking solution!

Yes, there is a solution, but first of all: you must be rooted.
If you have root, then you can install the app proxydroid, which let you set all the info needed to use a proxy with authentication.
You can get the app from play store, it's free.
It's also install a widget which let you switch on/off proxy settings.
Hope it helps.

No MarketPlace Icon

Hi All,
Currently working in China so bought this for the misses and the first problem is
1) the stock browser does not seem to recognise flash 10.3 so I most of the websites she uses are useless.
2)No market place icon to download Dolphin Hd etc
3)No Gmail Icon or Samsung Account/ Gmail Account options when try to setup the accounts
4)Tried to create an account in Gmail for her using laptop but when try to download an app from interent it says no devices associated with the account and you need to access the MarketPlace using the device first.
5)haha, downloaded the marketplace.apk and installed it on the app, however just says i need to setup an account before I can use it, 8-( however the Samsung Account is setup and using the Gmail Email Address (all be it not an actual gmail.com address)
Please anybody, can you help before this thing goes through the window, the shop has refused to allow me to return it so after pointless argusing in English to somebody who does not understand and my misses also trying in chinese we are left with it, any ideas how to resolve the above?
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease.....
I'm also getting messages when using the internet saying something about WebIM and Windows Media Player needed to be installed, when click ok, nothing happens ?
Doh !
Resolved the Flash issue with the stock browser, very simple answer, was just in the settings to always allow plugins...
But still need to resolve the Market Place issue and the Windows Media Player Plugin for the browser, anybody any ideas please ?
Nobody got any help ?
入手这个以后说实话我很纠结。。。
什么是真理? . . . .
I am also in the (Chinese) market for a Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Wifi), since it is way cheaper in China than back home in Germany, plus it is actually being sold here
I've bought an Android device in China before and it also lacked the Google apps as well as Facebook etc. And the Market app, most importantly. On that device I just downloaded another, non-Chinese firmware, installed it and it worked like charm.
Is that also possible with the Tab? Because I would like to get rid of the castrated Chinese firmware. If yes, which firmware should I use - and how high is the risk of bricking the device?
Thanks in advance
Mucho
I had thought of putting the Europe Firmware on it, but as its for my wife I aso need it to have Chinese Character Support, My Galaxy S2 mobile has the XX firmware on it, but I cannot switch this into Chinese Language so was worried the Galaxy Tab would be the same....
So that means no Chinese input or no character display at all? Because for the input you just install another IME and it should be good to go...
Anyone else any ideas about the possibility of slapping a European firmware on it?

[Q] Please suggest some websites for downloading App APKs to desktops

Hello!,
My first post on XDA!!
I bought myself a Galaxy S2 (G!) and really loving it.
Now that I want to have some apps on my phone and enjoy it , I have data connection and a bit costly and also wired internet has some problem to be converted into WIFI as well
Can you please suggest some nice sites where I can download the APK files of android apps?
Yes , I came across some tools on the forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542105
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539375
But I want dont want take risk of my google account and want to download APKs without making my ID out .
Cheers,
Guru
uhh dude, to be honest the easiest and best way is market. U can try other market alternatives like snappzmarket, applanet market, aptoide and blackmarket alpha. All will let u install apps without google account. Saves u from transfering all the time.

How to use openvpn? Will this make your phone to have free internet?

Hi Guys,
I am a newbie here in this forum.. Does anybody know how can I have free access to internet? Using openvpn.. Cant find posts related to this one.. Thank you in advance..

OpenVPN is used to establish a VPN (encrypted) connection between your phone and an OpenVPN server.
OpenVPN does neither provide payed nor free Internet access . Maybe you should change the title of your post
Free internet access...WTAF ?? Unless you find a free/or deliberately left open WiFi network (Some organisations run free ones in some countries, and some people deliberately leave their WiFi networks open as a 'community service'), there's no such thing as free internet access.
you can ask this in internet hacking forums , here is for developing software for mobile phones , any ay , you can't have free 3g unless your know some tricks about your carrier , one of them is the vpn trick , but again go search about your carrier free 3g tricks in any hacking forums , not here
Thank you Sir.. I'll go search for this topic at the Hacking threads.. Thanks man

[Q] VPN for Galaxy 4.0

Hello all,
Question regarding VPN on the Galaxy 4.0. I'd like to know if anyone has PPTP VPN working with any of the custom ROM's. I have a Galaxy 4.0 right now, and I'm pretty happy with the stock ROM, with the exception of VPN, which I can't get to work. I've read some stuff on google android sites which sounds like the older (and maybe still newer) android versions don't handle VPN well at all. I'm not at all hesitant to root and change ROMs if it will get me VPN (I did it on my Nook Color and was very happy with the improvement), but other than VPN, the stock Galaxy is giving me everything I want, but VPN is important for me. I want to watch French TV on it, and for that I need a French IP, which I get through a French VPN server. Works on an iPad, but the VPN is Galaxy seems poor.
So, if someone has PPTP VPN working on a Galaxy 4.0, could you please let me know what your setup is and I'll go for that. Conversely, if someone knows that VPN just doesn't work on this platform, please let me know that, so I don't waste too much time.
Gracias.

VPN should work, you should download droid VPN and this (for tun module)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aed.tun.installer
Hello zaclimon.
Thanks for the reply. When you say "VPN should work", do you mean that it should work with CM9 like you have, or that it should work with the stock ROM and I'm just doing something wrong?
Also, what is "droid VPN"? Is that an update? An app?
Thanks for the clarification.

It should work with any rooted rom (in theory, I don't have any VPN to verify that). Also DroidVPN is an app that requires you to be registered.

Help with proxies

Hey XDA! ^^
I have been reading some threads about this, but I couldn't find an easy answer.
I have downloaded a game with Market Helper in order to download a game from Japan. The problem is, the game in incompleted. I mean, it needs to download some data.
The app checks the country I am, and block the data download. I have been searching the .apk and data and I couldn't find them.
The only solution I think, it is to use proxies. I am newbie at this, so I haven't knowledge about this.
Which proxy (free and easy to use) do you recommend me in order to download it?
Thanks
PS: I have a Xperia Z1 rooted.
