Currently I need to use my device on an enterprise network (peap wifi) and the only way to access wan or the internet is to use their proxy.
I need to use the proxy for http but cannot find anywhere to enter the proxy information, I have tried various apps from market but all have failed. Is there a way to access proxy settings? I'm sure the setting is there but I can't find a way to access it.
What do you guys use?

That just talks about 802.1x/peap. That already works on Android 2.2. (In fact it has worked since Android 1.0's wpa_supplicant, but they didn't expose it in the Android UI till 2.0 I think.) Here's a site with a bunch of proxy options, have you tried them already?

Yes I have tried that site with no luck, below are the ones listed on that site.
TransProxy: Not found on market, found it on sourceforge but it looks just a linux binary, not an apk. Is this still usable on android?
ASProxy: $5 fee, no free version
Proxy Settings Android Application: Requires some survey and won't let me download it.
Open Desire: Requires survey I can't get around. (And looks like a ROM itself)
---------
Others I have found on market:
Proxymator: Crashes when I hit OK
http Proxy Settings: Crashes when I hit OK
GAE Proxy: Does not work (won't let me select port 80)
Any others you can suggest?
Oh and if it matters it is a Squid Web Proxy
-Thanks

Don't think so. I know VPN's don't work, wouldn't surprise me if proxy's don't either.
Okay, because all proxy apks don't work.
Thanks!
It's amazing how you can spend so much time on something like this without providing a single shred of useful information. Like a logcat.
I installed transproxy to test it out. It failed, because our kernel is missing the ipt_REDIRECT module. It took me 2 minutes to install it, get a logcat and look at the error messages to find this problem.
Since all of the proxy apps just use iptables, none of them will work without this iptables module. Simple fix - ask WisTilt2 to add it to the config of the next kernel he builds.

How did you get a logcat that was fine?
All mine ended up corrupt after running transproxy...
Dunno. Maybe you got a corrupted download, it was fine for me.
I've submitted a bug report about the kernel module for you.

Hopefully that gets added to kernel soon.
Dear folks,
I have a trusty Dell Streak 5, which I appreciate much, buuuuuut..... I keep getting this error message when trying to load a DSLR controller: "Your Android device is not compatible with Android's USB host API. A newer firmware for your device MAY fix the problem"....
I am currently running Longhorn 2.91 (Android version 2.3.7), Kernal version 2.6.35.14-DSC-Team_Phoenix [email protected] #346, Baseband Version GAUSB1A136000-US.
Are there any fixes for this issue, do I need to change the ROM or what other options have I?
Also, on a side note request, is there a way to change the LCD resolution, everything is a bit too small and unreadable?
Thanks very much!
~J:cyclops:
What's the exact app? If it's doing what I think it's doing, you need to be using Android 3.0 or newer.
If it's using the android usb accessory api, that was introduced in either 3.0 or 3.1, 2.x predates it.
If it's actually trying to become a usb host, it's supported in hardware but it's not terribly reliable in all our current roms.
As for the font sizes, you'll want to read up on ro.sf.lcd_density, the S5 uses 160 while most devices use 240.
Trying to figure this suckah out!
Hello TheManii,
The exact app is this one: DSLR Controller (BETA) 0.94.1 (I cannot, as of yet, post the link).....
Is there a DLSR app that I can use for this ROM pkg? So frustrating indeed!! Or perhaps a workaround?
Is there an app or an add-on for S5 for the LCD?
Thanks much!

is is easy, install the DSC Rom , there you will have a configuration tool called DSConfig, the LCD settings are there too.
DSLR Controller (BETA) - Play Market seems to require your device either support usb hosting or usb accessory mode.
I dont know if DSC supports hosting, as I dont use dsc. But like previously stated usb accessory is for android 3.x and newer.
You might be able to get assitance from n0p to get it supported if you're simply using hosting, though dont expect any type of quick fix, it may take a fair amount of work if it works at all.
You could try using AOSP/ICS as it's new enough to 'support' usb accessory mode, though weither or not our rom+kernel has it working is an entirely different story.
tl;dr: the S5 is a bad canidate for this as it has very weak usb support for connecting other devices. If you plan on using DSLR controller heavily you're definitely better off with a different device.
yes, DSC supports usb hosting fully.
Use a sixaxis pairing tool............
And connect a ps3 controller
Its good...... Works fine for me......
All it needs is a root.....(which u shoul have)..:thumbup:

The saga continues?!
Thanks for the various replies. I am trying to figure out the best most updated ROM to do this, to use this DELL Streak 5 as a DSLR external monitor. I am currently using Longhorn 2.91 but that, apparently, does not offer the support that I seek. It also goes and stays in landscape mode during calls which I cannot seem to change... Dang ROMS never all perfect... Hahaha!! I may have to just suck it up and get another gadget but I like the idea of having one gadget that does it all, ya know? I cannot stand having a ton of stuff! If you good folks have suggestions regarding the most stable, up-to-date ROM that offers USB controller options, that would be superb!!
Thanks much and have a great weekend!
This is an Xposed module (See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401 for more on Xposed) that allows Time Warner's TWC TV app to work when USB debugging is enabled. It should also allow working with VPNs but this has not been tested.
Source code for the module is at https://github.com/Entropy512/XposedTWCTVPatcher
To install:
Install the Xposed Installer APK from the thread linked above
Install the Xposed framework using Xposed Installer
Install the APK linked in this post
Reboot your device after enabling the module in Xposed Installer
Enjoy TWC TV on a rooted device - no more need for a smali-hacked APK, just install it straight from the Play Store
Change Log
Changes:
9/11/2013:
Update to work with newer TWC updates. Sorry this took so long.
The app no longer seems to be checking for root in any way, so this just disables USB debug checks and also attempts to patch VPN detection. VPN detection patching is untested.
1/30/2013:
TWC pushed an update today. ProGuard obfuscation resulted in the name of a method we hooked changing from w to x...

REMOVED due to TWC app getting updated - grab the latest APK and update the TWC app.

Looks like it's only for Verizon users. It's probably best if someone who can regularly use the APK makes a module to do this.
I'm eventually going to write a very generic high-level guide with tips on how to figure out what an APK is doing.
If you know of anyone who has "fixed" that APK using the old smali-hack method, I can analyze that with androdiff to try and reproduce the techniques used.
Awesome!!!!
DAMMIT IT WORKED ON MY ROOTED ASUS TRANSFORMER 300 TF!!!!! Thank you for this.
Any plans on implementing the HDMI fix?
Hi, thanks for sharing this hack. I wonder if something like this would be possible to allow the install and running of Hulu Plus from the Play Store on a rooted device.

Yup, although it wouldn't come from me as I'm a Plus subscriber.
If there's a hacked Plus APK somewhere, I suggest using Androidguard's androdiff.py to figure out what it's patching.
Then use the Androguard Simple Text plugin to view the relevant source for the APK.
This should tell you which methods need to be overridden to always return true/false.
It works on galaxy s ii from Sprint running cm10. Although the app doesn't actually work. It opens and video status to play but then gets error. If you need with it when it first stats playing it turns green when it stops playing. The only Rom I have gotten it to work on is Blue Kuban. Any ideas?

This thread is only to discuss the mod to defeat root/USB debug checks in the app. It's not really the appropriate place to discuss any underlying device incompatibilities the app may have.
All I can say is - the graphics subsystem in CM10 on all exynos4 devices isn't exactly in the best shape. There is a reason CM10 and 10.1 never received M or stable builds for any exynos4 handset or tablet.
TWC pushed an update today.
This update changed the name of one of the methods this module hooks, so the module needed an update.
In theory, Xposed modules should keep working through an update, but if someone used ProGuard obfuscation, method names change often and as a result the module needs updating.

It checks for VPN? I'll take a look at that at some point.
The problem is, it's difficult to try blocking checks without a way to test the block, due to ProGuard obfuscation of the APK - You need to do a lot of reading to figure out exactly what the hell it's trying to do.
Although if there's a smali-hacked APK somewhere that does this, I can try and use androdiff to figure out what was patched.
Next on my list is HDMI.

Take a look at this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604411&page=9. They are trying to get hdmi and vpn to. Said they may know the smali code checking for vpn. Maybe you contact that dev and work together and get them both working. If I can help any way let me know. I don't hardy know any programming but I can poke around a little.

There's a good chance the network locks are done server-side... e.g. "don't allow it to work unless the connection comes from a Time Warner IP address".
So I've posted in various forums on certain ROMs with questions about things, but I just haven't been able to seem to find the right fit yet.I love AOSP and the ability for customization, Active Display, etc. Maybe someone can help me out here if I say what I'm looking for. Perhaps someone knows if these things are in a certain AOSP ROM. Here's three things:
1.) Hotspot that allows me to see who's connected and maybe name the device that's connected (i have a few things that connect to the hotspot)
2.) Native SMS app that allows me to continue to type after reaching 160 characters (some stock apps stop progress at 160)
and
3.) I know it probably can't be native, but some sort of S-PEN functionality (I use "Screen Write" a lot)
Anyone have suggestions based on this? Thanks for your continued help and development!

1. HotSpot usually has Access-Control which (when enabled) displays who is connecting or trying to connect (you can allow or deny)
2. I've never run into this. I am pretty sure Hangouts doesn't have this.I prefer 3rd party SMS anyway
3. For AOSP S-Pen use CM S Pen Add-on(ROOT)
I hope this helped some, good luck!
Thanks, but regarding your first point on aosp the only options for setting up the Hotspot are ssid, security type and password, is there another spot to bring up access control? Thanks for the other info!

It is probably ROM dependent, which ROM are you using at the moment?
EDIT: you might try this WiFi Tether app, always backup first just incase.

Ok, so I've seen that some users have been able to connect this controller to devices like the Nexus 5, so I'm wondering if it's possible on the N9?
I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDQqMH4POFQ [1] and followed the instructions.
However, the app it recommends (USB/BT JoystickCenter Free) using hasn't worked for me so far. I get to the step where I enable the touchscreen driver, and I get a message that says "Can not get access to '/dev/uinput'. Please install a Custom ROM with root rights."
I'm still at stock on this tablet, but it is rooted. Super SU is installed and working well with all other root apps.
I checked Super SU, the JoystickCenter has been granted superuser permissions in it.
Anyone have any advice on what to do? Anyone get a controller working with it?
I googled the issue and found out that some devices need a special custom kernel to enable this. Are any of the existing custom kernels set up for controller support?
I'd love to pull this off, because I just got KOTOR for Android and would love to use a controller with it.
Any help would be appreciated
Same here.
Flashing a custom kernel might help. I guess you need a kernel that provides the /dev/uinput device.
"uinput is a linux kernel module that allows to handle the input subsystem from user land. It can be used to create and to handle input devices from an application. "
I've got the same problem on my Oneplus One, the controller is recognized but I can't switch on the J>T option wich is vital to make the controller work...
Anyone has a solution ?
Did you see the FAQ page for the app:
https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/pokes-android-apps/sME_vV9pPcE
No specific tips for N9, but several general purpose tips. As you pointed out, the main cause of failure is a kernel without device support.
On the YouTube vid you linked, someone posted in the comments that setting SELinux to Permissive helped him out.
I was gonna try this out, but the app has been pulled from the store. If it gets reinstated, I'll try it with the custom Rom I'm running (Dirty Unicorns 9.2 test build, LP5.1)
