HTC Desire Android browsing - proxy authentication Issue

Hi Guys, Am trying to connect to the "market" using my HTC Desire Android. Need to connect via a wireless network that has a proxy with authentication. I have configured the wireless proxy already and can connect to the internet thru the browser on handset desktop but am not sure how to break the authentication issue when going directly to the "market" (pressing the market icon directly) . Also , is anyone able to browse using WAP APN on HTC Desire Android ? Many Thanks, Joram

Joram (long time ;) ) Not sure about the proxy, but WAP APN should work. Nothing specific to HTC Desire as regards the settings. -- Josiah Mugambi On Wed, Jul 20, 2011 at 8:03 PM, Joram Gachuiri <jgachuirii@gmail.com>wrote:

Hello, I tried some time back before I found something on the net that you cannot connect to the Market through a proxy. Internet works fine but mail, market and anything that uses push service will not work thru a proxy. It might have changed but I cannot confirm it.

I use connectify and it sorts me out just fine. I'm on HTC Legend & I've got someone on the Ideos. You need Windows 7 on the computer though. For the reverse; USB tethering works fine from both devices. No set-ups no configs - Just plug & surf :)

Somehow i cant get the internet passthrough to i have diasbled the firewall, antivirus lakini wapi now i think maybe the ROM wasnt cooked properly On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 11:38 PM, Tony Likhanga <tlikhanga@gmail.com> wrote:
