Set up an HTTP proxy phone for WIFI networks on Android 1.x and 2.x devices

I would like to know if HTTP proxies can be configured for Wi-Fi networks. I managed to configure the proxy (by calling the action "com.android.settings.ProxySelector" by code or using an application like Any Cut), but when I am connected to Wi-Fi, it seems that the proxy settings are ignored (I'm trying to use several "standard" applications such as browser, maps, ...)

Sometimes it seems that the settings are correctly read by the browser, and the proxy server works without problems, but it is more like an error in the application (because it is very difficult to reproduce). Does anyone here have a clear understanding of this topic?

You must install proxies at the application level separately by developers. Google doesn't seem to have a good solution to this problem. You may find this link useful: http://android-proxy.blogspot.com/

Maybe it will work. Set Wi-Fi proxy without using a phone

If you need a browser, Opera is a good solution. it contains proxy settings (type opera: config in the address bar)

You can do this for the default Android browser. There settings are available with Android 4 and higher. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do this with screenshots. No root needed. http://mobilebroadband.gishan.net/entry/84/wi-fi-proxy-settings-for-android
