Is there an app yet that you can use http proxy (company firewall) via wifi?
Anyone knows if FroYo will support it natively?

My Mobile Provider let subscribers access internet via GPRS with proxy and it seems that only traffic via port 80 gets through.
Is there anyone here know a messenger client that can communicate with server via this proxy port like PC version does?
Your help is appreciated.
Pocket MSN (MSN Messanger and Hotmail) only works with a direct connection the internet.
Does anybody know how to tweak it such as way (via registry setting etc) so that it can connect via the proxied internet connection.
The regular desktop MSN Messanger has the option in the app setting to allow it to work via a HTTP proxy server.
The reason I'm asking for this is that, some of us here in this forum, use the cheap GPRS service here in the US that only connects us to the internet via a HTTP proxy. We have web browsing and pop3 working, but not the MSN messanger and hotmail.
Thanks in advance for anybody that will provide some clue.

You must use a SOCKS-capable proxy. That is, not just a simple HTTP proxy. Also see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?s=SOCKS+messenger&sentence=AND - in there, I've also elaborated on this problem.
I understand this. However, the data service we use (T-Mobile USA t-zones) does not support SOCKS. We only have HTTP proxy and WAP proxy support.
Using the same data service from my laptop (with my PPC as the wireless modem), I could run MSN Messanger from my laptop (by using the HTTP proxy).
The Pocket MSN however, does not work. I would believe there is some way to tweak it to recognize the HTTP proxy as well.
Certain carriers, including mine, restricts GPRS and forces us to use a HTTP proxy.
Windows Media Live does not support HTTP proxy, only socks proxy. I already have a SSH tunnel setup on my TyTN, but the tunnel gets disconnected every now and then, making staying connected to MSN unreliable.
I know when I used to have a Symbian60 device, there were some clients that worked through the HTTP proxy of my carrier, but either they were java based (dont want java!) or it doesnt exist for WM6.
I wonder if anyone has a MSN client that they use through the HTTP proxy of their carrier.
Thanks!
My carrier is Cricket (CDMA) and they also force us to use an http proxy.
Were you able to find an MSN Messenger (or AIM) client that will work through an http proxy?
Thanks

Hi!
I've searched nearly the entire internet to find something maching my problem, but i can't find anything.
My Problem is, that Vodafone Germany has got a limitation of usable Ports in some of their Dataplans. That means that i can only use port 80 and 443 through their Proxy server. For Browsing and webmailing this is ok, but if i want to use the market or Wikitude or ShopSavvy for example i need a Wlan to access the internet with this apps.
I logged the Wlantraffic and found out, that most apps are communicating over port 80 and 443. Their not using the Vodafone Proxy because i always get an connection error when i am trying to use it over the cellular network.
So the big main question is: How can i force the apps to use the defined Proxy Server, the browser is allready using?
I need no Username or password for it. Just adress and port.
Is there a way to reroute all traffic through this proxy? Is there an app to set a global proxy? (Not the ones out in the market to set a browser proxy, because they are really only for the browser)
It would be so nice if someone has an idea, because i am looking for weeks now to use the phone on the go with all its extras!
T-Mobile G1 with -Cupcake 1.5 orig. non rooted-

PS: Previously i had a Windows Mobile 6.1 Device and everything was working fine, because all apps were using the proxy server i set in the connection settings.
I search that for a long time too!
I'm in china.I get on Internet use a wap gateway which is called cmwap that only open 80 port.
Now I set proxy from APN setting that could only makes browser to go,but all the other apps couldn't .
I tried gnu http-tunnel in Debian, but that need for a hts the http-tunnel server.
I don't know if I can use something for the Android apps.
My idea was to set a manual route to route all traffic that runs over port 80 and 443 to the vodafone Proxy, but to do that i have to root my phone, and i don't want to do that because i wouldn't loose my warranty.
Maybe there are possibilities in Android 1.5 that came out.
It would be fine if some "Pros" could make an answer.
Necroposting much?
if you just want to bypass the limitation of http proxy,then it's possibile using openvpn over http proxy
openvpn in tcp mode allow client to connect to server through an http proxy.just setup an openvpn server use tcp mode,and install openvpn on your android phone and configure it to use the proxy provided by your isp, that's all.
how can i setup the proxy connection on my HERO. i'm using wifi.
any ideas guys on the proxy setup on wifi?
Currently Android doesn't support WiFi proxies, but there are some apps in the Market that may be able help (see http://androideka.com/tag/android-wifi-proxy/ ).
