You need Meek and obfs4 pluggable transports and bridges. Also a good point will be to rise your own Tor bridge, where you won't be publishing it's descriptor and using it too in your "mobile" access. Once properly seeded and bridged - Orbot can penetrate such censorship

  • That's not the problem. The problem is that Orbot could not bind to port 9040 because it's already in use. We just need to find out what's using that port.

  • @SuperSluether maybe, but it can appear also if an Orbot lags on connect with no port interference, I saw it myself on a censored network - it used to conflict with itself.
