Overrides the captive portal settings of Android in the People's Republic China mainland

android-captive.sh

#!/usr/bin/env sh

## I don't have any devices running Android OS now. These settings may have been outdated but I cannot verify it.

adb shell settings put global captive_portal_fallback_url http://g.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_http_url http://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url https://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_other_fallback_urls http://www.qualcomm.cn/generate_204

@jacoblyw That seems to be a quite scammy website. I highly suggest you to flash your whole system, including recovery and boot loader if you could.

I agree that the .cn site seemed up to no good. I really have to wonder about the repair place and what they're passing on to clients.

The tablet broke again, so it doesn't matter much.

@jacoblyw I just gave another search of whois of that hostname, it turns out to be an Alibaba Cloud hostname. I think it might be that you are using a device sold in China? Anyway, I hope you got some new device that fits your requirement now!

Thanks , Bro. From 2023/12/15, With pixel 7 & Android 14, my config:

adb shell
lynx:/ $ settings put global captive_portal_http_url http://connect.rom.miui.com/generate_204
lynx:/ $ settings put global captive_portal_https_url http://connect.rom.miui.com/generate_204

Thanks, yes; we replaced that device. It wasn't bought in China and was a name-brand but was an "off-brand" (as they say). We replaced it with a mainstream brand which is much better (also a lot more expensive, but it was worth it)
