Anyone Know How To Set Proxy When 'Mobile'? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I've set up my proxy and can access in a couple of clicks on wifi but really need it when mobile. Does anyone know how to configure stock browser to run on a proxy on demand?
I use a vpn fine but the proxy has better performance.
Im not rooted and running ics on an HTC One S.

WiFi Transparent Proxy Application

Hello guys,
Another good and useful application that I found and was like a Christmas present for me. I always needed proxy configuration to browse the internet and I was not able to do it.
A while ago I started using SPQRom which has proxy configuration only for the default Android browser.
Today I found a new application that offers proxy functionality for Android devices.
If anyone is interested just download the application below. Install it. Give to it root access. Connect to your WiFi network. Start the application. Enter proxy configuration. AND.... HAPPY BROWSING.
Transparent Proxy Application
I am currently using the beta version and is working excellent.
Working with : SPQRom 0.7
Thanks!
Many thanks using it for school network
Works with cyanogenmod
Doesnt work at some places because the DNS does not resolve IPs outside the network. Is there a method to route the DNS resolution through proxy?
It will be nice if it is implemented.
I am having the same DNS problem. Many people claimed it working. I can only make the browser work to access IP addresses. No idea how other apps like market can work.
thx man like like like
Now I use proxydroid instead of this. https://market.android.com/details?id=org.proxydroid&hl=en Works better for me.

[Q] Tethering with proxy redirect ICS

I have a very nice 3G plan on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (P3100) with Ice Cream Sandwich and i want to use the tethering option to share my internet connection and advertise my business through it. I can successfully share my 3G over wifi but i wanna go a step further and install a proxy on my tablet (or something similar) so when someone accesses my tethering wifi connection gets redirected to a webpage of my choise before being able to access any other websites (just like most proxies work in Hotels/Airports etc but without the need of any password, maybe just pushing an "Accept" button after a few lines of info)
I have done a quick search and all i could find is how to connect to a proxy for internet use at my android device or how to setup a proxy server for USB tethering (with software installed at the PC) but i need a softwareless wifi solution based on http headers so that any device can use it.
I don't expect there is an app for what i wanna do but any direction to it, perhaps the source of a proxy server i could try to build under android SDK, would be greatly appreciated.
A 3G wireless router with OpenWrt installed is more suitable for you than an android phone:>

[BUG] Android 4.3 not handling proxy correctly

Curious if anyone else has experienced this issue? Since upgrading to android 4.3 roms, I have not been able to use my home proxy correctly. Connections to my proxy have been successful, in that, android still reports internet connection, however when using apps (that are blocked on my work wifi) are showing no connection. 4.2.2 roms all work fine.
The app I'm using is ProxyDroid however I also tried setting the proxy in native settings with the same result. Is there a change in the implementation of proxy services since 4.2 roms? Thanks in advance.
Maybe it will work with Drony or SandroProxy

Drony, is the wrong kind of proxy (server not client). SandroProxy isn't working either though (I mean in 4.3), however its very difficult to use; It's possible I screwed up setting it up (still was showing 'listening 127.0.0.1').
Drony is subset of SandroProxy so it acts the same way. You probably need just Drony.

Interesting implementation. Perhaps I will try it again. I'm curious is there a widget for quickly connecting/disconnecting from proxy's? Unfortunately running through my house its not a very fast connection (one of the biggest reasons I went with ProxyDroid, there is a quick connect/disconnect).
Drony will go on if active wifi has proxy set on localhost 8020.
It goes off if wifi goes down.
What can you miss with Drony is that not all apps will work.
For example WhatsApp do not respect androiod os proxy settings.
To have all working you need rooted phone and SandroProxy.
It install his own local copy of iptables to redirect all traffic.
But has more features and it is harder to set up as you find out .
It is more a developer tool than a plain proxy.
There is some wizard to help you out.
And acts the same way as Drony listening if active wifi has proxy set that points to it.

[Q] Using http proxy over VPN connection?

Hello
I need to connect to my companies network using the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client. At the same time, I also need to use my companies web proxy, when I wish to access the internet and even some internal sites.
Would anyone know, how this can be configured on rooted Nexus 5 or 7 devices (with OmniRom) and on a Note 3 with stock rom, all using Android 4.4.4?
I do know that I can set a http proxy in the Wi-Fi connection settings and also for the mobile data connection. But this does not seem to have an effect, when I connect to the VPN.
Well…? Any ideas how to set this up? Would be quite a blast - company is actually considering buying iPhone 6 Plus… :crying: For rather obvious reasons, that's not my preferred solution
Thanks a lot,
Alexander

orbot help

Does anyone have orbot working on sprint g3? I am rooted stock zv6. If you have it working can you share the settings you are using. I go through the wizard and just cant get it to work. Thanks.
Or bot really isnt good you should use something like:
Hidemyass.com (free proxy like or bot) or a glype proxy
Is there something else i can use to browse the tor network .onion sites?
I really don't think so
