[Feature request] Compile the Zygisk backend for armeabi-v7a architectures

[mhmodayman]

Hey developer

Currently zygisk is compiled only for arm64-v8a, is it possible to compile it for armeabi-v7a too?

Currently native mode Zygisk doesn't work on my Samsung S9+ because of this. I am getting this error in Magisk logs, which is expected.
468 470 E : openat 'zygisk/armeabi-v7a.so': : No such file or directory

It's probably possible, but that's a lot of work. I'll try to implement it when I have the time, but I need testers for this, as I don't have any 32-bit devices. Are you willing to be the tester of dev builds if I decide to implement 32-bit support?

[mhmodayman]

Yes happy to

@mhmodayman could you test a build for this? It adds an armeabi-v7a .so to the Zygisk module so it can inject into 32-bit app processes — that's the missing file behind the No such file or directory error on your S9+.

Download both artifacts from the CI run summary (you'll need to be signed in to GitHub):
https://github.com/okhsunrog/vpnhide/actions/runs/31744534838

Grab vpnhide-apk and vpnhide-zygisk — please use this matching pair from the same run, not a released version (the app and the module talk over a control protocol that changed since the last release).

Steps:

1. Flash vpnhide-zygisk.zip in Magisk/KernelSU and reboot.
2. Install the APK, pick your target app(s), enable native mode, and start the VPN.
3. Please report back: (1) is the No such file or directory line gone from the Magisk log, and (2) is the VPN hidden in the target app? The app's Diagnostics screen also self-tests the hiding and can tell you which layer handled it.

Thanks!

Thanks @okhsunrog

Here are the results of the test.

1. the No such file or directory line gone from the Magisk log.
2. no the vpn hidden target app, all green except two issues. (check screenshots below).

@mhmodayman in vpnhide app open settings and press "collect debug log" – then send me the file – I'll try to figure it out to fix the remaining issues.
Does it hide VPN from your target app or not?

[mhmodayman]

here is debug log.

I tried vpn-detection-test from nodedata.io, and it says vpn detected.

@mhmodayman what is vpn-detection-test from nodedata.io ? Is it a website? This app doesn't work like that, it doesn't hide VPN from websites. For that you should it split tunneling + you can use a separate browser that doesn't go via the tunnel using split tunneling. vpnhide only hides from apps that detect VPN using system API, and you're supposed to use it with split tunnelling. It can't hide VPN from the app, if the apps traffic goes through the tunnel – then it can see the exit IP

[mhmodayman]

Okay thanks for clarification

I tried this app https://github.com/cherepavel/VPN-Detector

And here is the result

Try installing latest builds of Zygisk module and APK from https://github.com/okhsunrog/vpnhide/actions/runs/31896491306
Also, did you enable only Java, or both Java and Native for VPN Detector? It looked to me like Native level wasn't enabled. Can you re-test with the new build?

[mhmodayman]

thanks @okhsunrog for the new build, this fixed the previous 2 leaks. all working fine now.
I have attached the debug log, in case you need it. Thanks.

awesome, thanks for testing!
