Use TLS Authentication
TLS Direction
Enter IPv6 Address/Netmask in CIDR Format (e.g. 2000:dd::23/64)
Enter IPv4 Address/Netmask in CIDR Format (e.g. 1.2.3.4/24)
IPv4 Address
IPv6 Address
Enter custom OpenVPN options. Use with great care. Also note that many of the tun related Openvpn settings cannot be supported by design of the VPNSettings. If you think an important option is missing contact the author

For the static configuration the TLS Auth Keys will be used as static keys.

Checks whether the server uses a TLS Server Certificate
Except TLS Server
Checks the Remote Server Certificate CN against a String
Certificate Hostname Check
Enter the string against which the remote Server is checked. Openvpn will use prefix matching. "Server" matches "Server-1" and "Server-2"\nLeave empty to check the CN against the server hostname.

Redirects all Traffic over the VPN
Use default Route
Enter custom routes. Only enter destination in CIDR format. "10.0.0.0/8 2002::/16" would direct the networks 10.0.0.0/8 and 2002::/16 over the VPN.

On some custom ICS images the permission on /dev/tun might be wrong, or the tun module might be missing completly. For CM9 images try the fix ownership option under general settings"

Got interface information %1$s and %2$s, assuming second address is peer address of remote. Using /32 netmask for local IP. Mode given by openvpn is \"%3$s\".
Cannot make sense of %1$s and %2$s as IP route with CIDR netmask, using /32 as netmask.
Corrected route %1$s/%2$s to %3$s/%2$s
Cannot accces the Android Keychain Certificates. If you restored a backup of the app/app settings reselect the certificate to recreate the permission to access the certificate.

Tap Mode
Tap Mode is not possible with the non root VPN API. Therefore this application cannot provide tap support
Again? Are you kidding? No tap mode is really not supported and sending more mail aksing if it will be supported will not help.
A third time? Actually one could write a a tap emulator based on tun that would add layer2 information on send and strip layer2 information on receive. But this tap emulator would have to implement also ARP and possible a DHCP client. I am not aware of anybody doing any work in this direction. Contact me if you want to start coding on this.

Copying log entries
To copy a single log entry press and and hold on the log entry. To copy/send the whole log use the Send Log option. Use the hardware menu button if not visible in the gui.
Shortcut to start
You can place a shortcut to start OpenVPN on your desktop. Depending on your homescreen program you have to add a shortcut or a widget.
Your image does not support the VPNService API,sorry :(

Your config file specified a pkcs12 file. Please import the file by selecting select in the Basic Settings configuration of the converted VPN
Your configuration had a few configuration options that could be parsed. These options were added as custom configuration options. The custom configuration is displayed below:
Done reading config file.
Do not bind to local address and port
No local binding
Please not that the config importer is an experimental feature. If it does not work for you or you think that things could be done better please drop me a email.

Security considerations
"As openvpn is security sensitive a few notes about security are sensible. All data on the sdcard is inherently unsecure. Every app can read it (for example this program requires no special sd card rights). The data of this application can only be read by the application itself. By using the import option for cacert/cert/key in the file dialog the data is stored in the vpn profile. The vpn profiles are only accessable by this application. (Do not forget to delete the copies on the sd card afterwards). Even though accessible only by this application the data is stil unecrypted. By rooting the telephone or other exploits it may be possible to retrieve the data. Saved passwords are stored in plain text as well. For pkcs12 files it is highly recommended that you import them into the android keystore."

Error showing certificate selection
Got an excption trying to show the Android 4.0+ certificate selction dialog. This should never happens as this a standard feature of Android 4.0+. Maybe your Android ROM support for certificate storage is broken

Broken Images
<p>Offical HTC images are known to have a strange routing problem causing traffic not to flow through the tunnel (See also <a href=\"http://code.google.com/p/ics-openvpn/issues/detail?id=18\">Issue 18</a> in the bug tracker.)</p><p>The offical SONY images from Xperia arc S and Xperia Ray have been reported to be missing the VPNService completly from the image. Other Sony images may be affected as well. (See also <a href=\"http://code.google.com/p/ics-openvpn/issues/detail?id=29\">Issue 29</a> in the bug tracker.)</p><p>On custom build images the tun module might be missing or the rights of /dev/tun might be wrong. Some CM9 images need the fix ownership option under general settings.</p><p>Most important: If you have a broken image, report it to your vendor. The more people report the issue to the vendor the more likely you will get a fix.</p>
