Working for me!
Got it working for me! I'm sitting in Starbucks using the t-mobile hotspot connection on the phone. The connection is slow, but it's going through a long series of tubes, so I guess that's why. Thanks for your hard work!
A tip for people who are having trouble:
I was unable to get it working using Firefox's default proxy function. Install the foxyproxy add-on, and do the following:
1. Go to the foxyproxy options, and under the proxies tab, create a new proxy called "Android Tether", or anything you like.
2. Hit "Add New Proxy", "manual configuration", and under host name put "localhost", and under port name put "1080".
3. Select the "Socks Proxy" checkbox, and Socks V5 option.
4. Now hit "Okay" to go back to the main options dialog, and in the "Global Settings" tab, select "Use SOCKS Proxy for DNS Lookup"
Firefox will restart, now go to the FoxyProxy menu, and select "Android Tether", or whatever you named your connection.
You should have internets now, at least this is what worked for me.
