I use a wifi connection that has proxy enabled.
Browser, play store, even the xda app work on the wifi.
However, apps like Viber and whatsapp only seem to work on my data connection. not on the wifi.
I guess this is because they arent using the proxy.
Is there any way to apply a system wide proxy or proxy even for specific apps?
My One S is just 24 hours old and i do not want to root.
Ideas ?

Hello,
Is there any application on iphone like DroidWall on Android ? Because I have a limited Data Plan and I want let only some messaging application (Beejive, ebuddy etc...) to use my Data Plan when I am in the exterior and block all other app to use my data plan, but when I am on WIFI, i want to let every app connecte to internet with WIFI.
I searched hard but i cant find an Droidwall's alternative for iPhone.
Everyone have an solution for my problem ? i tried Firewall IP but it is not exactly what I want.
Thank you
iblacklist?
If you have cydia (jailbreak) iBlacklist may help. Haven't tried it but it may help.

I would like to know if it's possible to setup an HTTP Proxy for Wifi networks.
I managed to setup the proxy (calling the "com.android.settings.ProxySelector" activity by code or using an app like Any Cut) but when I'm connected to the Wifi it seems that the proxy settings are ignored (I'm trying with multiple "default" apps like browser, maps, ...).
Sometimes it seems that the settings is read correctly by the browser and the proxy works without problems, but it seems more like a bug on the app (because is really hard to reproduce it). Anyone here that have clear ideas about this topic?
Hello,
I need to setup proxy for my Sensation, but nothing is working.
I've tryed many apps like ProxyDroid, Auto Proxy, etc.
When I'm setting proxy and trying to open browser (for ex. google.com) it's says 'site is unavailable' = no one app is working when proxy is set
Also tryed proxy options in wifi settings (Wifi is working then without proxy...)
Phone is rooted.
I don't have any ideas anymore, please help.
*bump* .
Sorry, but I don't believe that nobody know anything about this case...
What's the deal with the WAP proxy (for cell / APN access, not wifi)?
My provider requires the usage of a proxy for all traffic.
This works OK for the browser, and for People.
It is completely broken (no connection detected) for other apps: Mail, Maps, Marketplace, etc.
In Android there is a solution for apps which doesn't by default read the OS proxy settings - you can use a rooted app like Proxymater to inspect and re-route traffic first.
In Mango, with the addition of the OS Proxy setting, I would expect that at the very least, all the built-in apps would work, considering this is a Microsoft-added feature. But even that doesn't seem to be the case. It seems to be broken. Is there any solution?
Hello,
I have done a bit of a search about this but havent found an answer.
At work we have a network with wifi which is behind an authenticated proxy which the admins wont allow cell connection to. I have tried with various proxy apps but no luck. I need the wifi network to sync with the email server, which does work, however while on wifi I cant use the internet or receive txts from WhatsApp etc.
Basically I am just wanting to know if there is a way or an app, to enable 3G for a specific application while on Wifi, or to somehow enable both on request.
The dataplan I have at work is very restrictive, only 100 txt a month and 512mb Data a month on 3G. I therefore rely on WhatsApp to stay under this limit, but dont want my email app to sync to the server and download large emails while on 3G, only while on Wifi. And I need WhatsApp to use 3G as it cant get out via Wifi.
If anyone has suggestions or knows of something to get around this, I would really apprecitate it.
I am on a Galaxy S2 with Root.
Thanks
try droidwall- android firewall
Same issue
I have the same issue, only opposite, I use my phone at work to connect to a machine specific wifi router and vnc into the controls to control the machine. While I am on this connection without internet my 4g turns off and I get no data. Is there a way to force the 4g on while i am on a wifi without internet access so i can still access my email, pandora, etc?
I tried droidwall, but all that does is block the specific app from accessing the wifi connection, it still wont use the 4g connection while there is a wifi network connected, whether there is internet or not.
Oh yes, I am on a rooted Skyrocket on SKY ICS RC7.4 Speed (Great ROM BTW).
I'm guessing by the lack of response, nobody knows of a way to do what we are wanting, but I want to try refreshing this the once just to see if maybe the person who has the solution just missed the first time.
I did reflash my rom to SKy ICS 4.2A-8 if that helps. Im willing to use different roms, mods, hacks, whatever it takes to make this work.
