No.I want to use the proxy for my apps.For eg playstore can be accessed from browser but not app because the proxy is not configured.

What are you talking about
What proxy are you using? It's an app your installed? Proxies are for browser usually i don't understand why you're talking about app and proxy that doesn't work together.
Can you tell me more about what you try to do?

So you're trying to say that only the browser works and all other apps have no internet access?? Facebook and stuff?
Edit: Finally understood the situation, if you're using the schools wifi and they blocked apps to work (my college wifi does that too), the only way to get it to work is if they unblock it themselves. That's why you should get a data plan lol

Haha! Here we are! You're trying to bypass the security proxy of the wifi
If it's your wifi desactivate it, if you're in public place or school, you're *****ed
Is VPN an option for you? Sounds like deep packet inspection to me. If you'd use VPN your whole traffic will be encrypted. So no dpi to look in your traffic

Need help trying to bypass AT&T's Tether Verification

Back when I was using my LG Optimus G Pro on AT&T I was able to enable tethering verification bypass by editing one of the tables in an sqlite database in com.android.providers.settings from a 0 to a 1.
Hoping and praying that it would be just as easy, I went looking in the same location and alas, did not find the same table entry I found in my LG OG Pro.
I am on a grandfathered unlimited plan and would like to be able to share my data with my other devices as I have for the last 5 years.
Can anyone assist with this matter? Or is a custom ROM my only option?
And just to note, I've already tried FoxFi and all it does is access/modify the stock tethering options. When I try to turn Tethering on, it says "verifying" then directs me to ATT's site to add tethering to my plan. WHICH I REFUSE TO DO.
Thanks in advance!
Just FYI I tried adding the entry: tether_entitlement_check_state 0 to the settings.db and rebooting...but when turning on the hotspot, my phone still tries to verify with ATT.

I myself used titanium backup to freeze the system app "tetheringprovision". Then I use a widget to enable/disable Wi-Fi hotspot. You might get a force close once, but after you setup ssid and password you shouldn't anymore.
Other users report this method working.

After some searching, I happened to find this very same solution (using TI Backup to freeze the appication)! Then came back here to post my findings and you already made the reply. So thanks to you for that!

I'm thinking about getting a note 3. If he didn't have root access, as I wouldn't, is there any option for tethering (without paying extra pointlessly, of course)?

You either need root access, or to pay for it. Root access is available for the at&t note 3.

May be you can try Hotspot shield or Hola.
I prefer Hola -better internet this gives per app proxy & in yhe list of apps try tethering apps
you may not be able to use wifi tethering if disabled form operators side.
If you use Hola then enable unblocker, enable acceleration, then tap on unblocker see the list of apps select the country you want & Run(play) the app.
but you can try VPNs(Hotspot shield & Hola) for same & report here if it works.
Hit Thanks If i helped.

Please try this
Install the apk
Then go into Settings -> Connections -> More Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names. Once there, press menu, and choose "Reset to default". (Make sure you have at least one apn checked after resetting defaults)
Then try Tethering. You may or may not need to reboot after resetting APNs.
Let me Know
Get Wifi tether router set interface to wlan0 then create new APN, name whatever you want, apn to fast.t-mobile.com and make sure it's set to ipv4. Set tether provisioning in build prop to false. Reboot. Enable wifi tether and try it out, should be good. I set the build prop tweaks in 3c toolbox so it should stay, tethered around 12 gigs so far with no issue.

Apps that utilize fingerprint scanner

Have you guys heard of or found any apps that use the scanner? I found one called Last Pass which is actually pretty good. But I want more.

I use the Finger Security app which allows you to pick the apps you want to use the fingerprint scanner to secure when opening.

Cool app. Thanks for sharing the link.
You can set this app up to use your fingerprint to login instead of entering login credentials
Check out "LastPass Password Mgr Premium*"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lastpass.lpandroid
With LastPass you still have to enter in the primary password since fingerprint reader support is for reprompt only; or am I missing something in the settings? Any advice on how to set it up?
Edit: Never mind. Needed to set never log out option in addition to the fingerprint reprompt option.

You must check "Show advanced options" in your VPN profile and manualy setup DNS servers (1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 for example). After this you can enable "always on" mode.
