Orbot for Android v17.9.5 RC 1 (tor 0.4.9.9)

Important fixes and changes since 17.9.3-RC-1-tor-0.4.9.6:

Tor & networking

• Upgraded tor-android to 0.4.9.9 (with x86 fix), via 0.4.9.8
• Updated built-in bridges and geoip data from torproject (geoip from tor-0.4.9.10)
• Verified/fixed onion service client authorization via .auth_private file import and dialog (#1706, #1584)

Kindness Mode (Snowflake proxy)

• Connection test now exhausts every way to determine snowflake eligibility before connecting to Tor, with clearer error messages (e.g. when another VPN app is active, with a shortcut into system VPN settings)
• Kindness mode config changes immediately invalidate/restart a running snowflake proxy (#1710)
• NAT type now updates live in the fragment without binding to the service
• Introduced Regionalization.kt to centralize exit-node and DNSTT countries, and to disable kindness mode in heavily censored regions
• Fixed edge case where the kindness dialog could dismiss without unlocking the main screen
• Bumped snowflake to 2.14.0

UI & service stability

• Fixed boot/auto-start issues (#1713) and a false on-boot trigger when deploying from Android Studio
• Fixed a race condition in OrbotService
• More accurate connection progress via STATUS_CLIENT events; progress and subtitle now persist across rotation
• Fixed log being cleared on device rotation; log fragment reworked and decoupled from OrbotActivity
• Removed "No Network Auto-Sleep" setting, now defaulted on (#1112)

Build & maintenance

• Upgraded to Gradle 9.6.0 (Gradle 10 ready) and Java 24
• Misc. lint/warning cleanups and many updated Weblate translations

Orbot for Android v17.9.4 BETA 2 (tor 0.9.4.8)

Orbot 17.9.4 (2.7.0) — Android

This release upgrades the core Tor engine, expands proxy and bridge options, and fixes a few connection bugs.

Updated Tor

• Upgraded to Tor 0.4.9.8, with a refreshed GeoIP database for more accurate country and exit-node selection.

Shadowsocks proxy support

• Added a built-in Shadowsocks (Rust) client, so you can route Tor through a Shadowsocks proxy directly from Orbot.
• Shadowsocks now works alongside the Meek, obfs4, and WebTunnel pluggable transports.
• New "No Proxy" option lets you switch off an outbound proxy without having to clear your saved host or Shadowsocks URL.
• Cleaner proxy setup: the configuration field now expects a Shadowsocks Configuration URL, uses the right keyboard for URLs, and drops redundant entries from the proxy-type
  list.

Bridges & circumvention

• Refreshed the bundled bridge lines.
• Updated IPtProxy to 5.4.2, including a new DNSTT release for better censorship circumvention.
• Reorganized the exit-node and DNSTT-supported country lists so it's clear which regions are available.

Fixes

• Fixed a connection regression when using obfs4 without an outbound proxy.
• Entry Nodes are now ignored when a pluggable transport is active, avoiding an invalid Tor configuration.
• Orbot now reports itself as active only when Tor is actually running.

Translations

• Updated translations for Arabic, Albanian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Greek, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Spanish (incl. Mexico), Tamil, and UK English.

Under the hood

• Disabled Shadowsocks on x86 devices (unsupported) with a more robust build script.
• Bumped hev-socks5-tunnel to 2.15.0.
• Build/toolchain updates: Gradle 9.5.1, Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.1, Kotlin Coroutines 1.11.0, and Fastlane.
• Improved reproducibility of the GeoIP build.

Orbot for Android v17.9.4 BETA 1 (tor 0.4.9.6.2)

Release

• Tagged 17.9.4 BETA 1 (fd485d6)
• Updated to tor-android 0.4.9.6.2 (tor 0.4.9.6) with compileSdk bump (fd02d91, f54c3d1)
• Updated bridges (84015e0, 98e984f)

Build / tooling

• Bumped to Gradle 9.5.0 and Android Gradle Plugin 9.2.0 (earlier 9.1.0 → 9.1.1) (3cc66c8, 57e0d1d, 12d757f)
• Latest Kotlin + navigation-fragment-ktx patch (5d17726)
• Fastlane gem updated to 2.233.0; Screengrab tweaks for new AGP test APK path (473f83a, b870ce3)
• Reproducible geoip.jar via Python's zipfile so the artifact only changes when tor's geoip data does (6decfeb), plus a regression fix on it (6bdc098)
• Re-enabled versionCode auto-increment for releases (a3678ca)
• Dropped unused deps (Volley, junit.jupiter, leftover gradle deps); Orbot now an application module only, not an android library (32634ff, dcb3751, 9c6a706)

Features / fixes

• IPv6 bridge regex fix — allows [ and ] so webtunnel addr= works (#1672, 6f08189)
• Listens to STATUS_CLIENT tor events for the new bootstrap fix (b84d090)
• IPtProxy 5.4.1 with natTypeUpdated event for Kindness mode (2db4fa4, b070bf1)
• Kindness UI redesign with simpler layouts (044c520)
• AndroidManifest cleanup — suppress foreground/VPN service policy warnings, data-extraction config for Play (a70aa5a)
• Restored accidentally removed LocalBroadcastManager dep (0e82e1d)

Suggested apps

• Added Accrescent app store, Molly (hardened Signal fork), and Vanadium (GrapheneOS browser); fixed Vanadium app ID (a3da57e, f227f4b)

Localization

• Lots of Weblate updates: Tamil, Catalan, Albanian, Chinese (Trad/Simp), Polish, Turkish, Italian, Portuguese (BR), Korean, Irish, Japanese, Arabic, Indonesian, English (UK)
• Japanese fastlane locale moved to plain ja for website integration (1793950)
