I was trying to figure out from where exactly does android browser reads its proxy configuration. Is it Settings.Secure.HTTP_PROXY?. I tried setting proxy using proxyselector using following command at adb shell and this correctly writes to the secure db also.
start -n com.android.settings/.ProxySelector . This pops up a window asking ip and port for proxy. But android browser doesn't seem to be using this setting. Looks like it is fetching it from somewhere else. If i set proxy using the wifi- >advanced. android browser starts using proxy configured. Mine is a Samsung 2.2 version phone and i believe this proxy option in advanced section is given by manufacturer and doesn't guarantee that this will be there in every phone. Even in System.settings(http://developer.android.com/reference/android/ provider/Settings.System.html) i couldn't find a constant for proxy other than system.secure.http_proxy. So what exactly does this proxy setting in advanced section do that my android browser starts using proxy? Where does it save this info? Is there a way i can find out which db it is writing or there is an API to set proxy for android browser. thanks in advance. kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
