Proxy Support for Apps, on wifi--- not supported)
I was quite surprised that Android platforms do not have in-built proxy support. Proxy support is limited to the stock web browser of the phone, but if we want to use wifi for apps it does not work. Apps do not connect. They do not recognize the proxy settings.
I am hoping that there is a workaround for this,without rooting the phone.
The usual workarounds also do not work for me. I cannot change my router (restricted and nor can I change its settings.)
I cannot connect to market, or download over wifi (GPRS data connection takes too long a time).
Gmail, Gtalk, Maps , Weather apps, basically any app requiring a data connection is not able to work on wifi with proxy settings.
Such a simple issue, and this has been ignored for so long. Even my older phones(Symbian), had support for wifi.
I have to use expensive data plans (GPRS),for apps connectivity which are also so slow.
This really has spoiled my android party
I do not want to root my phone, as it would void the warranty , its an expensive purchase after all....
Is there a way (without rooting ), to get proxy wifi support for Apps in android ? Please share....................
