doc_anurag 46 Report post Posted February 4, 2010 use anycut from market install it go to create shorcut choose proxy setting i tried doing this but i think it just changes the proxy setting for the mobile internet because after setting the proxy the wifi still failed to work and my mobile net also stopped. After i deleted the settings my mobile net again started working. From what i could figure out from googling around was that andorid 1.5 lacks the ability to set proxy on wifi connection. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1273 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=545182 :Ohhhh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heehaw 1 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 Hi Guys, need a small favour, can some post the advance task killer or good offline apps which can help users who do not have access to Mobile internet or WIFI. I know you might be getting an obvious question in your mind why did i buy a HTC Hero then, wanted to get rid of my Samsung Max. Hopefully once Tata comes out with good data plans will subscribe one. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
