    I've downlosed and converted teh TOR for adndroid but it's now asking for another browser it seems. Can anyone with an Android handy get me the apk file for "orweb: privacy-enhanced browser" and "gibberbot: secure chat app with off-the-record encryption" please? I believe they're both free from the android market.

    Thanks in advance.

    If anyone is interested, I got all the files I needed and converted them. I'll be installing after backing up my PB to test. If you're not familiar with TOR, check out https://www.torproject.org. Might be usefull if SOPA passes in the US

    Not a lot of feedback here ... but here's another question. I have the files, I've converted them and installed them on the PB. When trying to run the TOR wizard however it tells me I don't have root access. Will Dingleberry help with this problem ... anyone know?

    Dingleberry won't help in your situation because it grants root access to the playbook file system, not the android player. There is no root for the android runtime on the playbook.

    On a side note, if you're familiar with this browser all the better, but why would it need r/w access to your /system folder?

    Thx for the info... What this does is force traffic to go through specific ports and use https connections etc. There's a browser it suggests using but I can't seem to get that to work either. If anyone is interested in what I'm talking about, head over to https://www.torproject.org/

    I'll keep reading up on other solutions

    Good morning, I have the files and also have them converted and installed. The issue is however that the FOR app wants root to make port changes and of course the pb doesn't allow this. I'm still surfing for a work around but have found nothing yet. If you want the BAR files, let me know and I'll share them with you.

    Where did you get want them sent? You say you really need them, I converted them but the don't have the same root access as they would on an Android phone... So i haven't got them to work yet.

    you dont need root access to make the program work I never had to do that with my htc sensation, all you need is just the orbot browser to coincide with it please send file links to [email protected]

    Okay Dokay

    I've converted it and uploaded it to here.

    I've gone as far as the login screen and stopped.

    Does it work after you've logged in?
