So there's a WiFi connection which requries a proxy server and a username+password to connect. I connected to this WiFi, set proxy via advanced settings.
Now I started Chrome and it asked for the Username and Password, and I'm able to browse properly. But I cannot access the internet on any other app.
Is there a way to do that? At least Play store??

Has anyone had this experience before? Everything works fine until I connect my PPC in the cradle and then I try open IE. My AOL connection works fine and I can get to the internet that way but IE keeps saying it
can not find the server.
are you using 2 PCs that one of them is behind a proxy (ex: at work) ?
in that case, the XDA will automatically configure itself with the proxy setting especially if it has the DNS function. When u r on the other PC (ex: at home), the XDA will try to decode the server name into IP using the proxy which can't be found.
if it's not the case, check your "work" connection at the network settings and make sure it doesn't have any proxy or DNS settings.
I've created my first Windows Mobile application mainly as a learning experience. I thought might as well share it.
I have to use Motorola MC5574 and a laptop without wifi card for work and got tied of sharing slow gprs connection to laptop while in the field.
Internet Sharing on MC55 won't allow me to share wifi over bluetooth or usb. Tried ICS Control but did not work for me.
So this application is created and finished after days of research on internet instead of adding on a wifi card to the laptop.
This program requires Microsoft .Net Compact 3.5.
I do not know if it will work on any other device.
I am not responsible if you use this application and crash your device or whatever else happens.
Main proxy function is based on open source C# proxy server code. Basic DNS proxy and ping functions are added and compiled with SharpDevelop. I could not add soft input panel in SharpDevelop so there is no keyboard icon available.
To use:
Press IP button to list ip addresses.
Select server ip address by using < or > buttons.
Uncheck DNS proxy if used together with built-in Internet Sharing.
Leave it checked if used together with WM6BTPAN.exe and manually put in DNS and Gateway address (server ip address) on laptop bluetooth lan driver.
Press Start.
Don't forget to change socks proxy option in the browser on laptop.
To use with usb connection: On mobile, under ActiveSync>Connections, uncheck "Synchronize all PCs..." and reboot before the usb cable is connected to laptop. If ActiveSync on laptop connects proxy does not work.
In my experience Firefox works better with this app then Internet Explorer for some reason.
Connection limit (on the right of port number) is to prevent process overload by client connections especially on web pages with a lot of elements. It may be better to set the limit higher on the program and change network.http.max-connections value on Firefox.

New Version: 1.1.
Added KB button for keyboard.
Added DHCP service to make connections easier.
Added DNS resolve function for sharing ActiveSync connection.
Example: if the Internet connection through ActiveSync is shared as [Internet > Router > LAN > PC > ActiveSync > USB > WM phone > Proxy > Wifi Ad-Hoc > another WM phone]:
On PC, in ActiveSync connection settings, check “allow wireless connection” before connecting USB cable.
On the device running proxy: check browser to make sure it is connected to Internet. Create an Ad-Hoc connection with static address (example 192.168.15.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, no gateway address). Wait until connected with client device (which should be set to dynamic IP address). They should connect even though the client will have wrong IP. If they do not connect at this stage don’t bother with next steps.
Once connected start proxy or click on IP button if already started. The Wifi IP address 192.168.15.1 should show up. Set that as proxy server address, check DHCP, and check DNS with 127.0.0.1 as DNS server address. Click Start.
If the Wifi Ad-hoc connection still works the DHCP client count should change in a couple of minutes. If not make sure to keep the devices a few feet apart and also try turning Wifi off and on from the client phone to force DHCP discover again.
On the client phone: Settings > Wifi > configure network adaptors to “connect to work”. In Settings > Connections > Work Network > setup proxy server > enter proxy server as “socks=192.168.15.1” (example proxy server address) > advanced > HTTP > change port to proxy port (default 9876) so that the screen shows HTTP as “socks=192.168.15.1:9876. Socks port setting does not matter, as Mobile IE seems to connect using HTTP setting.
Note:
Tested between Motorola MC5574 and a Samsung Omnia i910. Wifi Ad-hoc connection on Omnia side is unstable and cannot be used as host.
Therefore Internet>MC55>Wifi>Omnia works but Internet>Omnia>Wifi>MC55 does not work reliably.
Nice. Have you seen the SOCKS proxy app from pchasco? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414389
I would like to be able to use my tablet with my students at school. Unfortunately the district uses a proxy server that requires authentication to access their network.
I know the ipad has these advanced wireless settings built in. Is there anyway to add this feature to my G tab? I am currently running the stock rom 1.1 3588, but I have run the market fix.
Try wifi browser login. It works at hospital using Cisco pop-up that requires clicking accept button to activate wifi on web browser
This is a different type of proxy server that requires logon to even connect to the network.
Are you saying that you can't connect to the wireless access point because of the wireless authentication method being used by the school or are you saying you're connected to the wireless access point but now the proxy authentication is blocking you?
I want to surf the web using a proxy server on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi. In Windows XP/7 it's just a matter of seconds to enter a proxy server in the browser. Is there a trick to do the same on Android? I've tried some apps from market to enable a proxy settings page, but none of them worked. thanks!
When connecting to wifi you can add proxy settings.
Hi,
I followed several guides on connecting my Galaxy Ace with an Openvpn Server.
I finally managed to connect to a Openvpn server using Certificates with the latest Cyanogen Mod for the Galaxy Ace.
For the Connection I used OpenVPN Settings App from the Market.
The thing is that the connection is established and I see in the config, that VPN is connected. It displays the message:" Connected to 134.x.x.x as 192.168.200.100"
But unfortunately nothing is tunneled over this VPN connection. If I for example check my external IP on the Galaxy device, it still shows me my G3 Provider IP. But I expect to see the IP of my Home Internet Provider. Furthermore no connections to devices on the local Network of the VPN Server can be made.
That means, that despite the VPN Dialog showing me that I am connected to the Open VPN server, no connection is tunneled over that device.
The Guides I used to setup the VPN Connection are from here:
freetz.org/wiki/packages/openvpn
and
riseup.net/en/openvpn-android
If I connect with the same settings from an windows PC to the Server, The connection is established and tunneling just fine.
Anyone knows what I am doing wrong?
