Invizible cannot start Tor

[cd-FileX]

When trying to start tor from the checkbox on top in the Invizible Pro app, I get a message saying "InviZible Pro cannot start Tor! Please try resetting Tor settings. If this does not help, please restart your device." (Cancel / Reset).

I have already tried resetting the config via the button in the popup and restarting my device though both did not help.

I encountered this issue after updating from v7.2.0 to v7.3.0. 100% reproducable.

Version: FREE
Build Date: 2025/09/30
Build Version: 7.3.0
Processor Version: ARM64
Application Version: FD

Happening here too. A reset does not cure the problem.
Has Android 15 been tested thoroughly?
A rewind to version 7.2.?? does solve it FYI

Same problem with same app version and different OS version. Downloaded from f-droid repositories.

Solution: download and install apk from Github repository directly.

Probably F-droid repositories have been poisoned.

The problem is only with the F-Droid version. They compiled the wrong version of Tor. I can only provide the necessary scripts for compiling InviZible, but I can't do anything about their compilation process.

#353

The version compiled by the F-Droid team does not support SNI spoofing, so disabling this feature will allow Tor to run. However, this version of Tor differs from the version used in other versions of InviZible and does not support certain features.

Yes, it works like that: download from here, backup the version and uninstall it. Install Invizible_Pro__beta_ver.2.6.2 and restore the data.
Thanks for the information and good tip 🤩

How does tor differ, except for the version? I think you mentioned in chat at one time that you made changes. Does F-Droid make the same changes?

I use my fork with a few minor but important changes https://gitlab.torproject.org/Gedsh/tor/-/tree/prod?ref_type=heads

It seems they just compiled the original version. But only my fork supports SNI spoofing.
