  • Stock android without an unlocked bootloader will not give you access to the hosts file, and there shouldn’t be a firewall you don’t know about. Can you run a vbox or live USB on another machine on your network to see if it will see the server?

    I just saw you already answered about the same gateway and mask. Hm. I’m thinking there’s probably a janky setting on your router, that’s the only place I can think of that might have a poorly configured or unconfiugred firewall. Especially if it works on the cellular using the VPN.

    Good luck with it, I’m sorry I don’t have the exact answer!

    Edit - just saw your edit. Computing is like that sometimes! Glad you got it working. 👍









  • Mvp comment there. I checked mine and I am in the US, on a phone I originally bought on credit. I do not have that app installed. Go figure. 🤷‍♂️

    Definitely worth checking out your app list to make sure. I wonder if it accidentally came downstream from AOSP into the alt ROMs, and that’s why it’s not in my stock, proprietary, US market, flagship Google pixel device.





  • Try alarm calendar plus in the play store (android). I’ve used it for years. The developer is called ‘Moyou’.

    I have it go off x minutes before the work shifts that I enter into my Google calendar, and I also use it for “time signals” - little beeps throughout the day to remind me ‘hey, it’s 12 o’clock now, better get some lunch’, or more typically - time to get up and take a 5 minute break.

    Of course I have to have th corresponding time signal to go back to work or my ADHD brain would get distracted and forget 😁

    The least annoying reader on Android I’ve found is moon reader pro. It feels a lot worse to me than maple reader on iOS though.

    Try Librera from F-Droid. I only wanted a pdf reader, and got that and an epub reader/ebook manager too. Apparently it’s also good for music manuscript too but I haven’t used it for that.
