Android app does not use custom server on Huawei MediaPad T5

I've been trying all sorts of RU connections and I'm extremely satisfied. The relay functionality is especially excellent so far!

Today I tried to connect to a Windows host, via a custom relay, using a Huawei mediapad T5. Although I configured it to use my custom relay server, it does not use it. Instead, it constantly tries to use your own relay server, as I can see from the logs:


... Method "Connect" - OK. ID-from-custom-relay connected to ID server: id.remoteutils.com.
.. Connection to "ID-from-custom-relay" failed.
Note that I can connect to the same host using my Oneplus 6 Android phone just fine.

FYI, this is Huawei Mediapad T5 with 4Gb of RAM, running Android 8.

"Copy" viewer agent to other systems?

I feel really stupid, I did not see the following part (bold made by me):

For the scenario you've described above, you can also use  Portable Viewer  - it provides the same functionality as regular Viewer but doesn't require installation. The only difference is that Portable Viewer stores all files in a single folder that you can upload a Dropbox folder, Google Drive or even USB flash drive, so you always have access to this Viewer.

Did that, works awesome! Case closed. Thanks again!!!

I see a file connections_4.xml in the same appdata directory, can't I just copy it to the other system?

Possible bug: one-time configurator with IPv6 enabled blocks IPv4 LAN

Good morning,

perhaps you should try to recreate the issue:

* Install viewer in a LAN that has both IPv4 and v6
* Create a one-click host using the online configurator and check use IPv6
* Install this host in the same LAN
* Connect to the system directly over IPv6, should work
* Try to connect to system directly over IPv4, does it work?

Could you please let me know if you're able to establish a connection using the IPv4 address to the Host when the  Use IPv6  checkbox is  disabled ?

No, it did not change anything. I could see that there was an IPv4 listener but I could not connect.

In addition, please clarify if you have selected the Use IPv6 checkbox in the Host Settings -> Network -> Port tab only or if the checkbox is also ticked in the following location:
Right-click on the connection in the main Viewer window and select  Connection Properties , navigate to the  Network  tab:
   
If this checkbox is not selected, please try to enable it and see if the issue persists.

I have uninstalled the one-click host which had IPv6 enabled, sorry. Initially it was enabled in both places. I could not connect via ipv4. I deselected it and still couldn't connect...

I've created a one-click custom executable, having enabled IPv6 in the settings. If I understand correctly, it allows IPv6 traffic in addition to IPv4. If not, then the following is a feature and not a bug, no need to fix anything.

I've installed this on a system on a LAN that has both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled. I can connect to the host just fine with Internet-ID. I can also connect to it using a fe80 IPv6 address. I can't connect to it using IPv4, even though I see that a listener does exist on 5650/tcp4.

Can you try to reproduce this?

Remove wallpaper: how can I restore the wallpaper back?

If I terminate the connection from the viewer side, the wallpaper is restored. If I terminate it from the host side (I'm using the agent version), then the black display remains.

I've been using the remove wallpaper option, but I see that after the session finishes, the wallpaper is not changed back. I'm using custom agents created by the MSI configurator.

I've got my viewer perfectly installed on my main desktop system, with its settings, (free) license key etc. Is it possible to "copy" these setting to the fresh viewer installations I made to my laptops and tablet?
