My school has a Wifi that is encrypted with a proxy, and there is no way for me to be able to use it. I can connect to the Wifi, and use apps like Mail, Opera Mini, Google Voice(Used to work but since yesterday does not wok on the school wifi anymore). Other apps such as the web browser do not work because they require you to input a proxy. Well I have a HTC Incredible 2 and on my phone if you go to proxy settings in the Web Browser you are able to input the Wi-Fi Proxy host and port, which I do and it still doesn't work. I then downloaded the app ProxyDroid and that doesn't work as well, I also tried the PAC and that also didn't connect. I know this isn't just my phone as I had the same problem on my HTC Incredible 1, LG Ally, and tons of other custom ROMs on this phone. Also nobody in my school that has any Android phone is able to connect to the Wifi. But on the iPhone's/iPod Touch the school wifi works perfectly and it accepts the proxy. What am I doing wrong?
My school's host name is Proxy, and its port is 8002. I can either use that or the PAC which is http://proxy.nycboe.org/proxy.pac .
Already replied to you on rootzwiki with exactally what to tell your school. They deserve it.

Is your phone rooted?. PROXYDROID needs root access to function... Android has way better PROXY support than iphones...

Yes my phone is rooted.
Let me understand, Gmail and Opera Mini worked, right?
So it must be a stock browser problem...not the phone itself.

No its not the phones problem. Gmail and Opera Mini work because they send the data through the protocol SOCKET. Every other app doesn't work as well such as Market, Browser, Firefox, Aim, AndChat, Barcode Scanner, Netflix, ect. Even on the iPhone if you don't input the proxy settings then Safari won't work, but the mail application will/and opera mini will.

Currently I need to use my device on an enterprise network (peap wifi) and the only way to access wan or the internet is to use their proxy.
I need to use the proxy for http but cannot find anywhere to enter the proxy information, I have tried various apps from market but all have failed. Is there a way to access proxy settings? I'm sure the setting is there but I can't find a way to access it.
What do you guys use?

That just talks about 802.1x/peap. That already works on Android 2.2. (In fact it has worked since Android 1.0's wpa_supplicant, but they didn't expose it in the Android UI till 2.0 I think.) Here's a site with a bunch of proxy options, have you tried them already?

Yes I have tried that site with no luck, below are the ones listed on that site.
TransProxy: Not found on market, found it on sourceforge but it looks just a linux binary, not an apk. Is this still usable on android?
ASProxy: $5 fee, no free version
Proxy Settings Android Application: Requires some survey and won't let me download it.
Open Desire: Requires survey I can't get around. (And looks like a ROM itself)
---------
Others I have found on market:
Proxymator: Crashes when I hit OK
http Proxy Settings: Crashes when I hit OK
GAE Proxy: Does not work (won't let me select port 80)
Any others you can suggest?
Oh and if it matters it is a Squid Web Proxy
-Thanks

Don't think so. I know VPN's don't work, wouldn't surprise me if proxy's don't either.
Okay, because all proxy apks don't work.
Thanks!
It's amazing how you can spend so much time on something like this without providing a single shred of useful information. Like a logcat.
I installed transproxy to test it out. It failed, because our kernel is missing the ipt_REDIRECT module. It took me 2 minutes to install it, get a logcat and look at the error messages to find this problem.
Since all of the proxy apps just use iptables, none of them will work without this iptables module. Simple fix - ask WisTilt2 to add it to the config of the next kernel he builds.

How did you get a logcat that was fine?
All mine ended up corrupt after running transproxy...
Dunno. Maybe you got a corrupted download, it was fine for me.
I've submitted a bug report about the kernel module for you.

Hopefully that gets added to kernel soon.
On the official samsung announcement it was promised that the sgs2 will have a cisco vpn anyconnect client. However I failed to find it, or any ETA, does anybody know any details about it?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I've been searching for that aswell but failed to find it. Apperently it is not on the SGS2.
I would like to be able to use it too, so if there is any info please share.
I sorta got it working.. I had to decrypt the pcf file first to get the Group password and the I used an app called vpnc from the marketplace and put in the details from the pcf file and it seems to work. I haven't got citrix running over the vpn yet, still working on that
here is the announcement
on the samsung site under /global/business/mobile/solutions.html#security_vpn
it should be possible without decryption etc., unfortunately the "more information" text on the samsung site is not linked...

OK, so after two weeks of pain with calling Samsung tech support I was finally given the secret number for their UK head office, just to get me off their backs! HA!
I was told that these missing features are indeed scheduled for a future firmware release. They are going to try and find someone for me to talk to (apparently in Sales) who knows when these are scheduled to land.
Will let you know more if I hear back from them.
Yeah mine is rooted. I lasted 3 days when I brought it, I can't stand buying something and having certain features locked...
It's finally here !

Hi All
I want to use my android device with the wi-fi connection at work.
The sad part is I can only access internet via a proxy.
I need to find a way preferably an .apk , via which I can set a proxy.
And the biggest problem is that I have a non-rooted device.
Thanks

As far as I know there isnt an apk for that.
What version of android are you on?
In 2.2 if you goto wireless and network settings and scroll to the bottom then you get proxy settings...
If you dont have it...try wolf Xperia TW v007.1 rom, I am on that and am looking at the proxy settings now.
I too need them to access wifi at work...

I think x10 doesn't have iptables modules installed , I've tried similer apps called proxydroid if I'm not mistaken and although the apps itself is easy to use, the problem seems to be lies in the x10 itself, can anyone verify the iptables module exists in x10?
Thanks everyone for your speedy replies, but the major problem is that I cannot root the device, as its a company asset (will need to take approval from 101 people), so am looking for a way to do the same without the need for rooting the device.
And I cant believe Android has not implemented this yet!!!!
How do they expect to make a presence in the corporate sector, I mean already the sales force in my company are using iPads...its a shame coz you can do so much more with android as compared to iOS....

When I connect to the student's wifi network, it requiers to configure the proxy with authentification. Well I'm fine with that, and the browser works all right, but all of the apps which require internet access aren't working. I also noticed, that when I'm configuring the proxy in the settings, it actually says that the HTTP proxy will be used by the browser, but not by some of the apps (in my case none of the apps work, including the pre-installed apps like android market, youtube or google maps).
So my question is that is there any way to make the apps work with the HTTP proxy? I should say that I found this thread on this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836164
but I had trouble understanding it. Also if this matters, I'm using an Asus Eee Pad Transformer running android 3.2.1.
Which part you don't understand? You have to enter into console mode, and type these commands to copy, make the right folder, and start the application/configure it for auto start each boot I presume.

Well, first of all, does this require rooting the device? What is APN? What is the adb shell? How do you enter the console? What is ppp? What is rmnet?
I should say that I've been using android for like a month and I have no experience with Linux and any kind of programming.
Isn't there anyone who has had this problem?

I have an unrooted enterprise SGS2. I cant root it like I have done to my personal device.
I am unable to access certain wifi sections if they are bound by proxy authorisation inspite of knowing the server name and the proxy credentials. THere is no place when I can input the settings.
I cant try the proxyDroid as it works only on rooted devices.
Anybody who knows about proxy settings on android ? Any browser is fine.
Hey abhijit.
Maybe the enterprise got it locked somehow before giving it to you guys.(its really just a stupid thought)
But i would suggest flashing a new rom as that would give you root access as well without really rooting the phone first and then trying to do what you may want to do.
And there are thousands of roms to choose from.
This should solve the issue in my opinion.

Thanks a lot of the reply bro ! But I could do that previously too. my concern is that the proxy is governed by a set of username-password credentials (eg. employee id and password) which i am unable to input there as there is no option for such a thing.
On desktop browser, we get a pop up asking for those credentials. wonder how it is on an android browser as there is no pop-up asking for the proxy credentials.

Now I understand. It's been long i used those kind of networks. I'll advise use to root your phone.
Nowadays, rooting is just too easy as you don't need to flash any kernel to achieve that.
