It's not that no-one cares to help you, it's just that there isn't that option available. Perhaps there is some hidden registry entry you could use, but no-one has yet found it.

ive read a couple things about t-mo having issues with their internet access. but its just 1 option thats disapearing.
Do you have this problem when you use the carrier ROM?
start>settings>connections>connections>set up my proxy server>check the box that says "This network uses a proxy....etc" when the advanced button lights up click it. Click on the type of proxy you need to setup......

see thats the problem. in WM5 the option to edit my proxy server is there, but in WM6 the option is gone. i have;
"add a new modem connection"
"manage existing connections"
i have an option to edit the proxy in which my work network runs off of, but that doesnt help me.
the option isnt there when u use My ISP and change the name.. you need to create a new one and then input all of your settings. it will then have the option for the proxy

no it was not. also you have a link to a decent AIM?
When you flash a custom vanilla ROM, you won't have any GPRS settings for your carrier. If you look around, you'll find instructions on how to set up your T-Mobile stuff. Try the Crossbow Reloaded thread, as I remember seeing a link to the instructions there.

lol i dont have a link.. i can give u the cab for the actual AIM, the only problem is that it doesnt connect by itself.. so u just have to open IE or somethign first... i'll also attach verichat.. they are both good programs.. i tend to use verichat more..
-Nstefanelli-
oh and if you have cingular, this is the cab for the OzIM program
-Nstefanelli-
sorry.. DUH.. u have T-Mobile.. here is the cab for the OzIM for T-Mobile

Actually, that is the problem. Like I said, vanilla ROMs don't have carrier settings. You have to either install a CAB that contains the necessary registry settings or you need to tweak them yourself. The thread I recommended contains a link to the necessary T-Mobile settings. Lucky for you, nstefanelli was kind enough to provide the CAB, but since I have Cingular I have no idea if they configure your phone for GPRS. I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually.

ok, for some reason youre not understanding the situation, i know the settings i needed to put in, again that wasnt the problem.
Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Add a new modem connection>Enter a name>Cellular Line (GPRS)>Next>wap.voicestream.com in the Access point name field>Next>Finish.
this is where my problem was. there should be a "Edit my proxy server" in the menu, but for some reason its not there. it has nothing to do with my carrier or anything like that. what Nset' told me to do didnt fix my problem.

I understand it has nothing to do with your carrier. This is my point: if your phone works when you use the default ROM, then the problem lies with WM6. You are missing key settings that prevent WM6 from connecting via GPRS to any network. I've installed WM6 quite a few times on my 8125, and each time I was unable to connect to anything until I installed a CAB provided in the Crossbow Reloaded thread. After that, I was able to enter the necessary proxy.
Now, if you've already visited the reloaded thread and tried the T-Mobile stuff that's provided there, then I apologize. However, I get the distinct feeling you haven't done that yet. If you just can't get WM6 working, then revert to the default 2.26 T-Mobile ROM.

HTC Weather Proxy Patch - refresh weather on WAP proxies!

Hi all.. a member of the forum idsk released a patch for running the HTChome weather update feature on proxy connection like WAP ones, so I'm sure that anyone using T-Mobile Web or T-Zones will like it.
More details can be found here:

We need the help of the forum devs to develop similar solutions to other popular programs like Live messenger etc..

If you are using auto mode, you have to load PIE at least once so the weather can get the proxy settings. Load up PIE and browse something like google, then try updating your weather. (Given the fact that you have already set proxy settings in your connection settings)

[Think Tank] Wifi Proxy

Hello,
There are some open issues in android that states the lack of proxy support for Wifi connections.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1273
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9126
I know, and the majority of Android users might also know, that there is a way to "hack" the android browser to use proxy. It's done via sqlite.
But I think, as many other users, that this is no solution. The "hack" is only for the bowser, so exclude market, gapps, etc.
Now, someone from google said that:
Comment 8 by [email protected], Jul 07, 2010
There was a bug in how the browser used the http proxy - it was fixed for the Froyo release.
Other applications may still fail though - only the browser even attempts to use the http proxy. In the future we plan to move the proxy-awareness into http stacks, but it's unclear when that work can be done.

So, as you can see there are no plans whatsoever for implementing proxy support.
What I would like to start here, is some sort of list of kernel/modules/coding requirements, to start a possible development.
To anybody out there that has some know-how on this subject, please speak!
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Anthon.

Agreed
Just adding my support to this. It's a much needed feature!
Hi,
Can you teach me how to use the sqlite with android for browsing via proxy... I just want to browse atleast in my university!! Help me out!!
Hello again,
I was thinking the most quick way would be to have a local proxy client (where we would configure our proxy server settings) and redirect/forward all traffic with iptables rules to that local port.
Sort of a transparent proxy.
We have some netfilter modules included in the custom kernels that comes in most custom roms.
No, what proxy client could we use? Is there a busybox proxy client we could use?
Thanks.
Anthon.

Have you tried opera mini? That appears to get through most proxys with no configuration using "socket" method and seems to be a good solution if you just want to be able to browse the web.

Opera Mini -> Settings -> Advanced -> Protocol -> set to Socket. That works for most people.

Hi
Sorry for my absence.
I've been investigating a little bit and found a great piece of software called Tor - http://www.torproject.org/docs/android.html.en.
It's a privacy and security tool for browsing the Internet. It's also a local transparent proxy!
I have tried this tool at work (we have a proxy to get out to the Internet) and I managed to get Google Email syncs and Google Talk even without configuring anything even close to a proxy!!!
So, great news! I'll do some more research, hope you all can help.
Best regards,
Anthon.
Hi again,
Yesterday I went to the tor irc channel and talked we some nice folks there
Their recommendation was to look for a solution with iptables (what I said in the beginning).
I searched a bit more and found this: http://proxychains.sourceforge.net/.
It seems to be possible to chain the entire "system" and not just an application.
Will try to build this using Android NDK. Don't know if it will work...
Any recommendations?
Best regards,
Anthon.
Thanks a lot buddy...Keep us posted about the updates...I am also trying this orbot... will post the updates!!
And sorry for asking more questions... phone needs to be rooted for using orbot??
50/50...
See the "Platform specific notes": http://www.torproject.org/docs/android.html.en
Thanks...Will give it a try..and post tomorrow!!

proxy setting

How can I set a proxy in android ?
does FroYo support HTTP proxy setting ?
why google doesn't care about this problem ?
I need help ! Will it be in FroYo ?
proxy support... help???
I've been trying to find out the same thing... apparently you have to root your phone - check out this site
http://www.chrislowthian.co.uk/how-to-unlock-de-brand-and-root-the-zte-blade-orange-san-francisco/1824/
and then you can install an app to let you manage your proxy settings, i found one called ASProxy on android market but you have to pay for it, or have a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=766569
I don't really understand any of this stuff, haven't tried it yet as I am completely new to android phones and technical language, my previous phone was a old-school nokia so this is a huge leap! Was hoping to find someone who might know a bit more about it and who could explain what to do in English, I don't understand half the words on the second website.
Anyway hope this helps, if anyone can help me please reply!
I have now successfully rooted my phone and am now using FroYo ROM, I followed the instructions on this link:
http://orangesanfrancisco.co.uk/index.php
This site was really helpful for me as I knew nothing about this stuff beforehand, I managed to root the phone without any problems at all. It would have been nice though if someone somewhere on the net had mentioned that in rooting your phone you will be invalidating your warranty... bit late now!
Still trying to find a way of getting wifi through the college proxy server thing, I think this link about transproxy would be really helpful but I don't understand how to install it and have no idea what iptables are and how to do that...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=766569
If anyone can shed light on the iptable question and also how I can download/install the transproxy thing I would be really grateful!

[Q] Using QPST to change sprint proxy settings

Mods please move if not in the right place.
So I recently used qpst on my htc arrive to do a manual prl change. While it was a pain in the ass to setup does anyone know how I could change the proxy settings also? I read on the android sections that ppl were changing the http/rstp to 0.000.000 etc and that downloads were increased. Since the arrive does not give you the options of the android phones, I thought this would be my best bet. If anyone has advice on this subject or where I can find a tutorial please let me know.
