NOTE: Jelly Bean issues have been resolved.

A basic port knocker client for Android. Similar to the other port knocker apps but with an ICS style and more intuitive interface. Also includes a widget and the ability to choose an application to launch after knocking. The (relatively) larger size is due to the dependency on the ActionBarSherlock library.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you encounter any bugs, or even if you just have suggestions.

The code is open source and can be found at: https://github.com/xargsgrep/PortKnocker

    I am unable to enter any port number. When I am trying to be smart and use the paste function it clears all port fields.

    Jelly Bean Google Nexus - crashes everytime you want to add a port, useless if you need more than 3 knocks.

    I am surprised that a port knocker looks nice and feels like a solid Android app, in addition to doing what it's supposed to do. Nice work! I also like the inclusion of a widget.
