ok, so i've searched around a LOT and just can't seem to find a solution anywhere.
so here's how it is. i connect to the internet on my PC through a LAN connected to a proxy server. so i bought a USB wireless adapter, and i used connectify to create a virtual hotspot. i rooted my phone and use AutoProxy (or sometimes ProxyDroid) to configure proxy settings. initially i wasn't able to use the net on my phone using this network, and everytime i tried to open a page on my phone, the wifi network would disconnect. after some tweaking i've managed to make the net work for the browser on the phone. however, everytime i try to connect to an https server, it says "secure connection could not be established". and i can't use the net for any of my apps, or for the market.
Basically, All these piece of "Very Improtant Developemental Ideas" (Which mean Useless, non-developemental Ideas) Must be thrown to the Q&A man!

I dont understand why do you use other applications to use internet only on browser, there is alredy proxy setting on your i9003 unless you have flashed it with CM7. Use the Proxy settings on the Wireless settings to use internet on your browser.
Regarding other application I have also tried lots of other 3rd party apps like you but was not able to run internet on other applications and inbuilt browser also but then I see no point of using other app just to use internet on browser.

what im saying is that with the proxy settings in advanced wifi settings or with a proxy software like autoproxy, i can only access the net on my stock browser, and i am unable to open https pages, and when i say i cant use net on other apps, i dont mean other browsers, i mean just normal apps like chat clients and the market.

it may/may not have anything to do with it, but is your USB wifi secured w/password?

1. why use connectify to create a hotspot? i mean as soon as you got your wifi adapter setup, you can connect to that wifi... no need for anything else, or do i misunderstand something?
2. proxy wise... do you have to start up the proxy each and everytime you want to use it on your pc or is the modem connected to the proxy? if its the latter, just setup the wifi adapter and connect to the wifi from phone, all done and set, no need to play around with settings...
3. if you have to start up the proxy each time you want to use it, there are other proxy apps, that create a connection to a proxy and you dont have to play around with settings, used some of them before, rather slow, but usually working... (i think i used GAE proxy)
4. VPN FTW

yeah, i use connectify to create a WPA2-PSK secured access point.
hmmm, so regular http works, https doesn't work even though your wifi is secured, sounds like a browser issue. have you tried other browsers?

yeps, same problem. and the biggest issue isnt reall ythe https websites, its the fact that i cant use apps or the market.
do you know anyone that owns a wireless router, so instead of a usb wireless you could use the entire internet wireless? that way, you could see if it's an issue with the usb or your phone.

If your office have LAn system connected to internet, U can configure the connection on settings menu & set your ip setting for your network.
Does anyone know if I can connect my laptop to internet via my phone, T-zone internet, by using Internet sharing? I failed to do this. Can someone give me an instruction? thanks
hey buddy, you need to have data connection on, when you connect your phone via usb and internet sharing enable. Make sure you have tmo's proxy configured in your T-Mobile Data Connection.
Work with phone but Laptop
Yes my phone is able to connect to internet by itself, Tzone with proxy setup, but I would like to go to internet by using my laptop and use the phone as modem by running internet sharing program but It failed to connect.
what you are asking about is turning your laptop into a hotspot and connecting to the internet using the wifi not regular nework. is that it
I am talking about using phone as modem, internet sharing...

you need to connect the phone to your computer via bluetooth and your computer will see the phone as a modem then setup the a new connection with the phone and voila.
I am using usb cable to connect it. I am running NBD 8.2.
not sure how to make it work on the cable but with 8.2 you should be able to connect the phone to the PC and turn on dialup networking via serial port over bluetooth

I never tried this before. I will try it tonight.
You have to set up the same proxy server in your web browser on your laptop as the one you have set up for the t-mobile internet on your phone.
Not sure really if its different for T-Mobile or not but i'm with Cingular and I use my wizard as my primary internet source for my desktop. Connect your phone via USB, let AS connect, then turn on internet sharing. It'll disconnect AS and display on internet sharing if its connected or not. Hopefully this helps.

Work great. thanks
No problem, glad I could help. I figured that out a few weeks ago the day after I got back from a business trip where I stayed in hotel that didn't have an internet connection and no wifi spots anywhere close. Wish I had thought to try that sooner.
So my school just got net books for everyone and also WiFi, but the problem is that my android phone can connect but it cant use it. at first i thought they somehow banned everything but the net books but when i brought my laptop it connected just fine:. so what do you think they did. do you think it could be the mac?
p.s. i can only use internet explorer on my laptop and not firefox.
Just found out that i am in the wrong sub forum can an awesome mod move for me? thanks
It depends of a lot of settings.
What is the encryption mode used on this network? (open, WEP, WPA, WPA2-TKIP, WPA2-AES)
Is the laptop owned or managed by the establishment? (ie: is it registered on an Active Directory domain?)
Is it using an enterprise authentication method (ie: 802.1x)?
If so, which authentication type is it using (ie: TTLS, PEAP) and the inner authentication protocol (ie: MS-CHAPv2, GTC)?
You might have to put your network credentials in order to connect to the wireless if they are using 802.1x.
For your Firefox issue, maybe you could try setting it to use your Internet Explorer's proxy settings and see if that fix the problem.
Something similar happens to me at work, but in this case they are using an automatic configuration scrip to connect to the web.
How can I use the configuration script in my android device

You cannot. Find out the proxy address and port and download something like TransProxy.

Connect your PC, then do an "ipconfig" from a cmd shell (assuming Windows). That will tell you both the address assigned to your PC and to the phone (the default gateway).
The webpage at http://192.168.1.1/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
this is the error message i get every time. could it be locked? or is nothing there?
i want to extend the network to my wireless router connected in my house. it will give me access to my printer and my hdd because they are connected to my wireless router. cant figure out how to do it.
The advanced settings are configured through the phone itself, I don't think it has a web interface.
You also won't be able to link it to your home wireless. Those home devices would need to connect to your hotspot wireless.

You would need to use a custom firmware like DD-WRT or Tomato on your home wireless router to do what you want. You would have your home router link to the TB and then everything else to the router. This would also make the rest of your devices connect to the internet through the TB. Probably also not supported or liked by VZW but you can technically do it.
I changed my apn settings to include a proxy. Now all the apps other than Sound Cloud are unable to establish a connection. However, when I tether my phone with my computer via Wi-Fi, the computer is able to connect to the internet too. If I remove the proxy, all the other apps also work, but I need that proxy. Please help me fix this, anyone
what kind of proxy is it..?? can u give more details of ur problems
