is there anyway to connect to a http proxy that needs a username and password? when i had a ipod touch i could connect to my schools http proxy and use my username and password to browse the internet. On my htc hero i found a way to set the proxy but not the username/password it requires. ive searched all day trying to find an anwser but cant.
Have you checked with sprint? Not sure if it is possible with android. Also may be specific to the browser you are using.
i dont have sprint
I think I recall Dolphin browser having a proxy setup option. May get it from the market and check it out.

Hey all
I have been using Palringo for a while now and I was tired of waiting for them to add a way where I could use a proxy server (T-Zones) or Wifi.
In order to do this you would have to access the registry and some users don't want to do that. So I created a quick application to take care of this.
I hope it's useful for someone.
This application requires .NET 3.5
UPDATED:
I found a minor UI update issue.
thanks...
I'll give it a look, thanks!
i tried it and now i cant connect to palringo lol...not sure if have cf net 3.5 tho, i think i have only 2.0 NET version

That's strange. All the application does is set the registry settings that palringo uses to connect through a proxy server.
Are you able to access the registry?
If so locate the following:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Parlingo\Settings] (These are the values used for US T-Zones Proxy)
Key="Connection/Proxy/Host" Value="216.155.165.50"
Key=Connection/Proxy/Port" Value="8080"
Key="Connection/Proxy/Type" Value="1"
NOTE: (The above settings are for US T-Zones Proxy only)
You should see these settings. If you set "Connection/Proxy/Type" ="0" That will allow you to use your Wifi connection.
^thanx i'll try that fix when im not lazy , i don't really use palringo much
can u make so that i can enter a proxy usernameassword inputs???
do u think ur prog will make palringo connect if it uses the wap port 80 to connect?
i can only surf the goam.com rogers APN thru a proxy server and i don't think palringo can connect

You don't need the wap user/pass on goam.com for the proxy.
Ip address : 172.25.0.107
Port : 80

If you are using a proxy server that uses port 80, all you need to do is set the port to 80 and set the host address of your proxy server and your good to go. Palringo will use your predefined connection to access the internet which will handle your connection to the proxy server.
Just wondering whether anyone is able to get it to work with Rogers goam.com APN?
I have created the 3 new keys in the registry, and I tried all the combinations of different ports and proxy type.
If anyone is able to get it to work, can you please post your setup here?
Thanks!
I have a smartphone (Dash) which I use on T-Mobile (USA).
So I've been able to use zaTunnel to set up a ssh connection between my dash (via wap.voicestream.com) and my ssh server. I've set up a few tunnels.
But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to configure apps to use these tunnels.
For example, how to make Opera Mini work through this tunnel? Google Maps?
Yes, I am aware of the epc workaround, but I'd like to figure our this other method as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Judging from the zaTunnel screenshots/documentation, you can only tunnel 1 port at a time. What you would need to do is run a HTTP proxy on your "ssh server" and tunnel that port through, and then point your applications to the new port. (IP of 127.0.0.1, with a port of whatever you put)
But why do that? If you have your settings correct, Opera Mini and Google Maps should work without any tunneling, because T-Mo's web proxy will let that traffic through.
You mean, using wap.voicestream.com, with proxy 216.155.165.50:8080, Google Maps and Opera Mini will work? I thought I tried that and found it didn't work.
Actually, ZATunnel allows you to set up as many port forwards as you want, but all through a single ssh connection.
dont use your providers proxy
set up your http proxy on your server at the end of the tunnel and have it listen on a port - eg. 8080
setup a tunnel from 8080 to 8080
then configure your proxy in the app to use proxy 127.0.0.1:8080

Yes, thanks for the reply. But is exactly that last step that I do not understand how to do. Howe do you configure the proxy "in the app"? For example, how do you specify a proxy for Google Maps or Opera Mini?

If I remember correctly when I was in Metropcs and with my Hero, I had to use a proxy server and in order to see the option you need to install BetterCut or Anycut and browse for the Proxy app
here it is.....adapt to your needs
8. Install BetterCut or AnyCut on your phone and open it Press New ShortCut And Go To Activity It make take a couple of minutes for it to appear but when it Does Go down to Proxy Setting and Click It. It Will Ask for a Name make it whatever you want to. It should say shortcut created sucessfully. Go to your Home Screen and it should be somewhere on there press it and Edit it For Cricket It should be HostNAME: wap.mycricket.com And Port Should be 8080 and for Metropcs HostName: wap.metropcs.net and Port Should Be 3128.

I just got my Dell streak (still rogers stock) and am trying to connect to my work's wireless network.
My first problem was our work wireless network is using LEAP authentication - I found a MarketApp that allowed me to put in my leap credentials so I'm now able to connect.
Now, to gain internet access, our wireless network has 2 options.
1) enter a proxy address - no credential required.
- I have yet to find a way to enter a proxy address using the stock browser
- I've read that there's no browser (even dolphin, opera mini) that has any setting for proxy.
Does anyone know if there's any new information with regards to proxy support for stock or any other browser out there for dell streak?
2) no proxy but upon trying to connect to the internet, the browser is suppose to ask for credential. This access works using regular laptop but not on my dell streak.
- I tried access the internet this way but when I launch the stock browser, the URL gets redirected to the login page but the browser just says WEB PAGE NOT AVAILABLE..
- I tried with Opera Mini as well but that doesn't even try to redirect to the login page. I tried to manually enter the redirect URL but it doesn't go anywhere - just gives me CONNECTION FAILED.
Does anyone know how I can fix this??
THANKS IN ADVANCE
Can someone help me move this to the Q&A section? Hpping I can get some response there..
Thanks
hi,
i'm facing the same proxy problem at my uni. I have heard and downloaded a program called " Transparent Proxy". I have not tried it yet because I'm not back at uni yet (still on holiday until end of Feb). Maybe you can give it a go and let us know
Off the top of my head,you can't get there from here.
You said you got the stock firmware at rogers that means 1.6 and i can confirmed as of 2.1 you couldn't do it trough android itelf. duno about froyo 2.2's.
however if you can run fennac ( a port of a mobile mozila firefox ), you'll be able to proxy like a mad man.

iirc i can't post a proper link until i've got so many post (copy n paste it to get there)
I stumbled through transparent proxy after doing 1 click root of my streak - so far I'm getting no iptable binary error message.. I'll try to dig to see how I can resolve this..
I will keep you guys posted..
Thanks all for your replies..
Back to uni for two days now and been using internet with transparent proxy. So I can confirm that it works. So glad that proxy problem is finally solved
solved my proxy issues
SOLVED the proxy authentication problem
You need to install Firefox on the device, if you haven't got a sim with a data package then you will have to do this manually.I have only done this with my sim installed.
Once this is installed you need to go to the Firefox menu and search addons for "proxy mobile" once this is installed it gives you options to add http, socks and ssl proxy details that your tech team will know. Once this is installed when you go on the internet and you are connected to your wireless you will be shown the usual login box it asks to remember the password I would do this. internet works and all apps are working. Why they haven't written this into the settings of this dell machine or others I have no idea. #Majorfail and #happychap
Hello
I'm trying to get an HTTP proxy working while on 3G on my phone. I've tried pretty much every proxy app I could find and I've tried adding the proxy IP and port to the 3G settings as well, no luck.
The proxy uses username/password authentication, I think that's what's causing the issues.
If anybody successfully set up HTTP proxy on their DHD, please enlighten me
