Different Protocols in VyprVPN Android App
Would be great if you make it possible to change the used protocol (opnevpn/l2tp/pptp) in the app.

We recently added our new, proprietary VPN technology called Chameleon that is available in the VyprVPN apps for Windows, Mac and Android.
Chameleon scrambles OpenVPN packet metadata to ensure it’s not recognizable via deep packet inspection (DPI), while still keeping it fast and lightweight. The Chameleon technology uses the unmodified OpenVPN 256-bit protocol for the underlying data encryption.
The result is that VyprVPN users are able to bypass restrictive networks put in place by governments, corporations and ISPs to achieve an open internet experience without sacrificing the proven security for which OpenVPN has long been known.

while chameleon and openvpn sounds great, it doesn't bring us any benefit if it is not usable. we strongly need a pptp and l2tp connection option.

Yet is so easily blocked by simply blocking udp ports. Please allow option to connect over TCP 80 & 443.

Team GF, any thought to adding this? Clearly a few people would like this functionality, plus given you have now added the app the ability to auto-launch the VPN with certain apps (great idea!) I would really like to be able to start using the app again and leverage functionality like this. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm also in China right now and PPTP in the android app would really be great. I also have problems with OpenVPN or Chameleon because of latency issues.

I would also like to see additional protocols added. Living in China I don't always get a connection to the server I want via Openvpn/Chameleon due to high latency (see GF Support Case: 465799), I do however get a connection and can access what I need via a manual PPTP connection!
Getting this protocol added to the core app would save me from having to manually go and dig through the menus to create a connection to different servers.
