ics-openvpn VS GoodbyeDPI

I've been working for a few days to build a good working VPN app (Non-commercial) but I'm finding so many different implementations of https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn that I don't know exactly where to start.

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.46): OpenVPN without root

I've been looking into doing something similar and stumbled upon a method that uses personalDNSfilter with OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter, which is a special version of the OpenVPN for Android app.

In addition we back several other open source projects, such as the OpenVPN GUI, OpenVPN for Android and OpenVPN 3 Linux ... these all provide various user interfaces on top of the OpenVPN Core component.

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.37): OpenVPN without root

Idk if this really helps as you said that most vpns do not work but I'd suggest to check this website to get a .ovpn file and then connect to the vpn with an app like this one. You said you tried Tor Browser, but did you try with Orbot? (Supposing you're on Android as you replied to a comment saying that you use a Samsung)

How do you write a script for a vpn on android? I don't think you can do that. I know how to use Macrodroid and I got adb at least, maybe this can help https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/548

There are other Android Python environments. I don't know about actually starting/stopping a VPN but there is this possible starting point: https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/597

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.27): OpenVPN without root

I was having same similar problem when I was developing my VPN app based on ics-openvpn. If that is your case then you should check my answer in this Github issue

Russian internet censorship is very simple. They don't seem to be using DPI to target VPN protocols at all, instead trying to block IPs/subnets of known commercial VPN providers. Blocking IPs, subnets, and domains is the primary operating mode of Roskomnadzor.

There allegedly is DPI, but it only comes into play as an extra measure against things like domain fronting, proxies, and plaintext HTTP. It'd look at the SNI and inject a RST packet to drop the connection. As it does not even try to implement TCP, analyzing each IP packet in isolation, there are various interesting utilities[1] that mess with it by, for example, splitting the TLS ClientHello into two TCP packets in the middle of the domain name.

Cobain GoodbyeDPI. Masukin ke task scheduler biar auto nyala dan hide window nya.

Thanks for recommending GoodbyeDPI. FM can't use DNS bypass anymore.

PC? Goodbye DPI

DPI "bypassing", not "switching it off". I've specifically linked many solutions to bypass DPI checks on my post. Most of the solutions is based on the first link I listed (GoodbyeDPI), so you can check out how it works in there.

Has anyone managed to bypass DPI on their iOS devices locally (without connecting to overseas VPN)? It seems like almost every other popular OS has had a publicly released method (Windows, MacOS (and Linux), lots of others for Linux, even Android), and only the iOS community seem to have no interest, or at least public interest, in local DPI bypassing. Achieving local bypassing would allow for access to all the ISP-blocked websites, without the speed penalty that comes with a foreign VPN host.
