Hello my friends. I work in a site on internet. When I work on windows 7, before opening the browser firefox, I must open the program DUC which I have downloaded from http://www.noip.com/. Also I have a hostname (something).no-ip.org
I am wondering, how can I do it in my desire x? I have installed the apps Dynamic DNS, Dynamic DNS Update, DynDNS Client and DynDnsUpdater, but I cannnot understand well. Any help? Thank you.
It depends on my connection? Wi-Fi or 3G?
Isnt their a Tor Browser for Android or is Not the Same thing? You could also try Proxy apps

what exactly do you want to do?? browse with changed ip from proxies?
I do not know what exactly I want to do. When I work on mozilla firefox in windows 7, it is necessary to have opened the program DUC which I have downloaded from here: http://www.noip.com/. Yes, I think it changes the ip, but firstly it is necessary to give my hostname.
So, before I work on opera mobile in my desire x, it is necessary to do something similar. It is necessary to find a program which will change my ip (firstly it must take my hostname). Regardless of my connection (wifi - 3G - 4G).
Any ideas? I believe it is called Dynamic DNS. Thank you.

Hi - Is anyone aware of an Android app that will allow you to access your Windows Media Player library over the internet?
I can access it in the house using 2player.. but what would be really cool would be able to access my media over the internet from a friends house, or even at work..
Or do I need to install a third party app on my PC at home too? (I'd rather not do that unless it's the only option... and if it is the only option.. which one is the best one to choose?)
Thanks.
you can use any app that supports DLNA can connect to Media Player
All the ones I've tried only work locally.. Ie. Within range of my home wifi network... I want one that will work from anywhere...?

Yes, it is possible using a VPN (Virtual Private Network)
A VPN binds your home network and your XPERIA X10i into one single LAN (192.168.1.0/24)
This means any services available to you on your home LAN is available to you on your XPERIA X10i anywhere in the world as long as your phone has an Internet connection.
You could look at setting up a PPTP server in your home network as a first step, but it is the least secure.
An OpenVPN server would be better and more secure.
HOWEVER, it can become VERY complex if you've never done this before and things don't fall into place the first time.
A visit to SmallNetBuilder or a Windows PC forum could provide additional information.
And if you do embark on setting up PPTP, one piece of advise, don't forget Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunneling protocol
The following config setup just pulled randomly from the web may provide a basic starter to get PPTP server up and running on a Windows 7 PC.
How to Set Up PPTP VPN Server in Windows 7
However I'd suggest for best practice you should use a dedicated VPN Server/router to provide a VPN PPTP server, as it's always up and provides added benefits for security, given PPTP is not the best VPN solution.
PPTP client is built into the Android OS and can be found in the VPN settings.
A better solution is to use OpenVPN and OpenVPN on a rooted XPERIA X10i.
You need a tun.ko module in the ROM/build when using OpenVPN client on Android.
I need to use Internet Explorer on my mobile devices for my job. My company's as well as a few client's secure websites as require Internet Explorer to work correctly. I need to log into those websites to access data while I am working out in the field. Those websites absolutely require Internet Explorer.
Those websites do not even work on Firefox on PC or Safari on Mac. So far only a coworker's Windows phone with Internet Explorer seems to works. Everyone else with iPhone, iPad and Android phone have not been able to use their mobile devices, and we all have to use a laptop with Windows, which seems to defeat the purpose of having a mobile device.
I know Android does not have Internet Explorer, but is there some browser that can emulate Internet Explorer on Android?

Try Dolphin Browser... and try to change UA to Internet Ex (i think)... or Boat Browser
Inviato dal mio GT-S5570 con Tapatalk 2
maybe out of the thread ..
but try out emulating a pc .. ?
Like using your mobile as a controller of the pc
else try Opera if yo haven't , change the user agent into Desktop
hope it works well for yo ..
You can try Dolphin Browser since you can enter a custom user agent so the website will think you are using IE. If its only built to work with IE's rendering engine you may have issues, but often times these sites are mostly functional in other browsers unless they need ActiveX.
This user agent string will tell the site you are using IE8 on XP
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0)

You kust restored for me crucial functionality I thought I'd lost forever with the upgrade to 4.1.2. Much thanks.
Need to run site in compatibility view on IE 8 on android
Hi I have a similar issue with my phone and tab, need to login to secure server but even on PC the darn site needs to run in compatibility view for me to even be able to log in (IE 8-10 only) Have done the string like above opens the window but does not allow login as compatibility view is not enabled... Does the same thing as on PC if this is not enabled ( jumbles up the page and does not allow the login button to be clicked) Is there any way for me to get this working?
Please help.

This is my 3rd post about what I'm trying to get suggestions on with a browser I have been given access to that works only on Windows 10 in windows devices but also on any Android or iOS devices. The view mode can be changed from Android, to Safari, and between desktop/mobile. Mentioning this because noticed it does emulate ie on desktop mode. Could be the answer.
It is MX5, the latest version to Maxthon Browser, and it is worlds ahead of anything available for Android. I am trying to get suggestions as to setting up a thread for availability and such, and am sure you would have to create an account through a Maxthon Browser download from playstore. Has cloud storage as well as syncing favorites, open tabs, between devices. Also has the ability to store webpages offline now in their entirety, or just extract pics, vids that can be modded for use in other ways. Also has what is called UUMail built in you name your own webserver, enter email address into and create shadow (alias) email addresses to use online that are filtered for spam. Adblocking is builtin as well.
If this seems to be an answer, try Maxthon Browser off playstore, create a user account and password. Even if you change the view mode in it to desktop and that does not fix the IE compatability problem, maybe this version, MX5 will.

Here similar problem, wish/need/pray to acces with android browser to old website made for IE 5.0 and javascript... Under PC I sue IE Tab... Try install add-onson Firefox for android, but not works...
(
I need the same thing, I have a dodge service manual cd that uses internet explorer 7 and under to run properly, I have used internet explorer in dev mode to run it it using ie 7, also on chrome I used IE tab extension and they both work great for windows. The problem is on android nothing works. I have tried every browser. I have also tried Yandex browser which supports add on and have installed ie tab but it does not work. I also tried Firefox and install ie tab using chrome store foxified but again it does not work. I wish there was a way of running this cd on android. I think it needs activex, netscape, svg viewer and java script.

I do not know if you can purchase their service in your country, but take a look at Goldenfrog's VyprVPN for Android.

VyprVPN for Android is for tablets (and telephones) that are running the Android operating system.
By the way, Android 4.0.3 has a VPN client built-in. You set it up through Settings > Wireless & Networks > More... > VPN.
If you need help setting it up, just ask. I used to use a PPTP connection. Now I use a more secure L2TP/IPSec RSA certificate-based connection, which is required on Sony's tablet because it doesn't use L2TP/IPSec PSK (Pre-Shared Key) correctly.
I use BlackVPN provider, they have various servers for different applications in different countries.They also have a guide to setting it up on different devices, I then use the following apps to make it all work, you will need root as OpenVPN isn't officially supported by Android. It is the most secure and one of the fastest VPN protocols available also.
You need TUN.ko to install the TUN module.
Then you need the Open VPN Installer to install the app.
Then you need OpenVPN Settings to control which VPN server you want to use.
BTW OpenVPN kicks ass over PPTP and L2TP/IPSec. Here
I've been trying to set up a tablet to connect to Windows shares on the companies domain - all legitimate. I have been asked to look at their use within the company.
It's a standard Server 2008 based domain.
The main problem I am having is that the wireless is a different subnet to the main network.
The file browsers I have tried so far are not apparently capable of routing over subnets - due to smb (which the browsers use) not being a routable protocol so I am told.
The question is are there any Android apps that uses IP Routing to find shares rather than SMB.
I hope the above makes sense. I am going off what I have been told. I can connect to shares on the wireless subnet itself so this seems to all make sense to me.
Are there any such apps?
Any other solutions to this also welcome!
Thanks
Andrew
You can DO it!
SMB can route over subnets, make sure your DNS or WINS are setup properly.
Make sure the firewalls on all pertinent machines are setup to allow File & Printer Sharing both subnets. The default is local only. This matters on clients & servers.
I'm unable to post links, but search for " Enabling Samba across Subnets" on LinuxPlanet. For more Windows based solutions, search for "Share folders across different subnets" on anandatech's forums.
Any SMB app should be able to this. Sysinternals even hosts a Public File Share! It's on their "live." subdomain.
As FesterCluck says, SMB/CIFS can work over TCP just fine. I'd also like to add that FolderSync is the best network-capable file manager I have seen. You should check it out (and no, I have no relation to the company that makes it). Despite the name, it has a built-in file manager that works great for both local files and network shares. The sync capabilities are just icing on the cake.
Just been wondering, cause I've tried it before but with no success, is it possible to create a virtual private network between your home computer/wlan to your android phone?
The main reason I would be interested in doing this is to possibly access my media collection on my home laptop via the HTC media player's ability to stream from a shared computer on the same wireless network, or to use splashtop2 vnc to access my actual computer from a remote location.
Has anyone tried this? With something like Hamachi ?

The Answer is YES...
I've had openVPN running on all of my android devices with no problem, I can access anything from my Network via VPN. If you need some help I can point you in the right direction.
I'd love some. Been trying to figure it out but been to busy to find the right research. Thx

Wow thanks, I didn't think I was gonna get a reply to this thread haha!
I will set it up after classes and see how this works, I have no idea why I didn't just search the play store for vpn apps >.<

How would I go about using OpenVPN with Hamachi? I could use "Private Tunnel" but it only allows 100mb with a free account :/
Add me, please, to the list of those who'd love your experience. My prior employer used a Cisco VPN client which I could never get working properly. Now, my needs are exactly those of the OPer. I have Win7 at home, on a PC running all the time, and I'd love to link my DNA.
So, any insight based on your experience would be great. Thanks!
OpenVPN Windows 7 Android Config
I've been coding for eight hours today, so I'll try to explain as much as possible tonight and will continue tomorrow if need be...
1. So obviously you need a static IP, if you don't have one yet set one up with no-ip or change-ip or whatever you prefer
2. Download and install this straight to C:\ directory.... trust me it is just easier this way:http://swupdate.openvpn.org/community/releases/openvpn-2.2.2-install.exe <--- This is an older version but I've found it to be most stable
3.Create a simple text file in the config folder of the OpenVPN server eg. C:\OpenVPN\config
and paste this into it:
## server.ovpn ##
port 1194 # This is the standard openVPN port, you may change it just make sure open it up in you firewall and forward the port
proto udp
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert server.crt
key server.key # This file should be kept secret
dh dh1024.pem
server 10.20.1.0 255.255.255.0 #If you use this IP, your host machine will take the virtual IP of 10.20.1.1
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
push "dhcp-option DNS 10.20.0.1" #change these to match your setup
push "dhcp-option WINS 10.20.0.1" #this too
keepalive 10 120
comp-lzo
max-clients 3 # The maximum number of concurrently connected clients we want to allow.
persist-key
persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log
verb 3
4.save that text file with an .opvn extension
Sorry guys I'm done for the night... I'll try to help you out some more tomorrow.
