Hidden Start VPN Settings Intent on Android

Because of the recent regulations to ban Youtube in my country, my HTC Desire phone became practically unusable since it couldn't reach Google's services. I have bought a VPN service but there was an inconvenience to use it, there was no shortcut to go to the VPN settings page.

After some wandering around the Android source, I have found the "android.net.vpn" package, which is not published in api docs.

Long story short, you can start VPN Settings activity with following code:

startActivity(new Intent("android.net.vpn.SETTINGS"));
