I got another adb.exe, now my phone is detected and Android Tunnel connects to the phone, however, phone cannot connect to Internet. Let me tell a bit about my network :
The IP address of my VSAT modem is 10.202.209.1 (Gateway). My PC is having IP of 10.202.209.3 and connected directly to the gateway. We do not use any proxy server in our network.
So, in my case, what should be HTTP Proxy Android Server Port, Host Address and Host port, and what should I set for HTTP and HTTPS Proxy in Opera?
I tried 8080 as the port, 10.202.209.1 as the host address, 80 as the host port. For Opera, I used the value 127.0.0.1:8080 for both HTTP & HTTPS proxy.
The Active connections always show 0, and the Closed Connections increases every time.
I guess I need to know what the port no. of my gateway is, but don't know how. Anyone, please?

I applied Public Proxy 164.100.130.230 at port 80, now I'm getting Active Connection:1 at Tunnel, but I only get a page saying : "It Works!" on both PC browser and mobile Opera, no matter what website I go to. What do I need to do? Should my Gateway in PC also be changed or something?

I never see that.
It's the proxy that return that page. I checked it .
Take another one.
|

OK, ok, need to find out what's wrong, but that was my organization's server.
Good news is I tried other public proxies, its working but much much too slow.

Hi Thierry,
How is it coming with the new project, I got this working at home but can't make it work at my
work (Dont worry, I'm the boss myself) , I don't know what the problem is but I really need this.
I'm prepared to make a donation too, if it works flawlessly.
BTW, is it gonna work in combination with ORBOT? It would be really great if it does, where we live half of the Internet is filtered out/blocked, so a proxy that can bypass the blockade is needed always!
Thanks for your great work and keep up developing good projects and Idea's like this.

Look like a very interesting article.
I will read it later to complete my solution.
It seams to be more or less what I doing but this solution is very complicated for the user.
Tnaks for the link.

You are welcome.
Installing SuperUser, Busybox and Android Terminal Emulator might come in handy for some other uses too, but I'm not willing to type in again all those command every time the phone is switched on for reverse tethering!
I hope your new app will be much simpler.
If you remember with Windows Phone 6 we had Microsoft ActiveSync. Just plug in cable to phone and we get Internet, nothing to do, no tunnelling app, no additional apps. Wish there was a similar thing for Android

1) My solution will be more easy to set up
2) The solution in Xda developers is a one way only : android ask for a web page and receive it.
My solution will also allow connections from windows to android (querying android services)
Imagine a web server on your phone or connect a windows Vnc client to an android Vnc server.

I have the USB Tunnel software installed and running on my PC and tablet. But I cannot establish communications between the laptop PC and the tablet. I followed the instructions on www.codeproject.com/KB/android/UsbPortForwarding.aspx without luck. Running "adb devices" in the tablet's terminal window shows no devices connected. Running "adb devices" in a terminal window on the laptop PC also shows no devices.
Please tell me how I can get USB tunneling to work. I have Eclipse on my laptop, but I don't think it is needed here.
This is my setup:
1. USB cable is running between my Windows Vista laptop PC and my Acer Iconia A100 tablet.
2. When I connect the USB cable, Windows Explorer shows the Acer tablet folders under my computer.
3. By running ipconfig in a terminal window on my laptop, my IP address is: 192.168.254.6
4. The USB tunnel app is running on my tablet and the host sofware (AndroidTool.exe) is running on my laptop
5. My adb version is 1.0.26 on both the laptop and Acer A100 tablet.
6. I set up the path to adb.exe in the host software's Config area as directed.
7. I also did the "add tunnels" step using ports 8090 (and 8080) and IP addr 127.0.0.1 as in the instructions.

Did you enabled the 'USB debugging' on your tablet ?
Parameters / Applications / Development / USB debugging
You will see the device when you enter "adb device" on command prompt.

Yes, I enabled USB debugging on my tablet.

Do you see the device when you enter "adb device" on command prompt ?
If not, it's probably a driver problem.
Thierry

No, I did not see the device when I entered "adb devices" on the command prompt. Which driver could have the problem?
|
|
|

I fixed one of my problems. I went to my tablet's (Acer) support site and downloaded the USB drivers to my Windows PC. After installing the drivers, I ran the USB tunnel software. My Windows PC can see my tablet when I click on "Refresh devices".
I then clicked on the "Config" button in the Windows PC's USB Tunnel software and set the following.
a. Used Android Server Port: 8080
b. Host Address: 127.0.0.2
c. Host Port: 8080
I then clicked on "Connect" and immediately saw the connection come up on my tablet computer's USB Tunnel window.
However in the tablet's terminal emulator, it still shows nothing when I type "adb devices".
Is that to be expected?

Hi.
First, You don't have to run terminal emulator and type "adb devices"
It's on the windows pc command prompt (cmd) that you can enter adb devices.
If the windows tools show your device, no need to check for adb devices.
Second, in the config, the host address is wrong.
You must enter the server that is able to return http proxy pages.
If you are at work, it's probably the default gateway
->run cmd then enter ipconfig. Search for default gateway
If you are at home, you must search for a public proxy. some proxies can be found at http://www.freeproxylists.com/[^]
More complicate is to install a local proxy like squid or polipo.
Third, you must install an android browser where you can change the proxy (normal browser don't allow it) like opera or firefox.
See article.
So only surf is possible, forget market, mail, ...

Thank you, Thierry Parent, for your helpful response.
I went to freeproxylists.com and selected an anonymous proxy: 70.89.102.45
I then went into Firefox and for the URL, I entered about:config and made the following changes:
For network.proxy.http, changed to 70.89.102.45
For network.proxy.http_port, changed to 8080
For network.proxy.type, changed from 5 to 1.
(Note that changing the network.proxy.http setting seems to have disabled Firefox from accessing any web pages.)
I then went into the USB tunnel software on the Windows PC, selected "Config" and entered 75.126.130.11 for the host address and 8080 for the Android server port and the host port.
USB tunnel won't connect on my WinXP PC and my tablet does not respond. Can you see what I am doing wrong?

Worked successfully on Samsung Ace..
Can Tunnel be modified or a app to use the connection on all the apps like market and other games etc...

Pretty good technique to make it work with browsers but it's kind of useless for me if it doesn't work with apps. Is there anyway in which it can work with apps? Thanks!
|
|
|
|

Can work with application too.
You just have to know the communication port and the target ip.
On a few weeks, I will publish a better reverse tethering application based on the same technique but for root user. Only the port number will be needed. No more proxy.
Thierry.

"You just have to know the communication port and the target ip."
Can you be a bit more detailed with this? Communication port as in? The port the app uses to communicate? How do I go about finding it?
My phone is already rooted and so, I'm waiting eagerly for the new app. Great work by the way
