Create a custom "hidden proxy"? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how i go about creating a hidden proxy? I tried looking at the settings of the at&t hidden proxy but can't seem to figure it out...
The problem is I cannot use the proxy setting under connection settings because it is already in use. My cellular operator has a monthly data plan of 100MB for 7,5€, but is limited to http traffic. This limitation is enforced by the use of a http proxy.
I'm running a http proxy server at home and would like to chain the proxies so that all requests would be formated to go to my server, through my operator's one. Is this possible?
Alternatively, does anyone know of a program that would allow me to chain proxies?
Thanks

I would also like to know if it is possible to create your own hidden proxy.
I use my tilt on T-Mobile and am also using the proxy to allow me to get unlimited internet access with the T-MobileWeb (Formerly T-Zones) for 5.99 a month.
However, using the proxy I am unable to use Apps such as remote desktop, windows live messenger, etc because for some reason they don't work with the proxy.
I was thinking that maybe using this hidden proxy instead of putting the proxy info in the connections settings would allow me to use these apps.

If you cannot properly setup a visible HTTP proxy (for WiFi), how could you even think about an invisible proxy?
This device is crappy.

Almost
This looks like the beginnings of an excellent application, however, does anyone know of a program that will automatically switch various settings based on GPS location? I have been digging around for months trying to find a solution that will allow me to set up various "profiles" based on my GPS location, e.g. silent/vibrate, medium brightness, gprs connection enabled all other data connection disabled, while I am at work, and wifi on while im in major metropolition areas, and off while not, etc etc.. is this a pipe dream or has anyone stumbled across something similar?
also Im not sure why you want a "hidden" proxy, but this might be your solution:

Will MediaNet Homepage work on Kaiser?

I believe this was brought up before but I couldn't find it. Now that more users in the US are getting there hands on the Kaiser, has anyone found the correct settings to access the MediaNet homepage. I know the normal connections work great for surfing and email. I was just curious. I know the only thing the medianet page will get me is local info, account information and at&t junk such as songs and ringtones. Just wondering.
Thanks
You can access the MediaNet homepage, no problem. Your data connection should be setup to access [email protected] (username), with a password of CINGULAR1. Then, in proxy settings, if you use the proxy wireless.cingular.com, you'll be able to get to the MediaNet homepage.
I did, however, find that TomTom 6 was not able to connect to its plus services unless I disabled the proxy.
Thanks for the info, it worked. Once I got in, I noticed I wasn't missing anything with the MediaNet home page.
At least I know I can do it now. Thanks Again

How to use internet access with T-zones instead of Total internet? (US T-mobile)

I have been searching thru the forum and i can't find any specific information about it
i use windows live messenger, email , and browse with Opera...I do use live search and google map too and i am with the 19.99 total internet plan now..
Just want to see if it is possible to save the 13 bucks coz i don't need hotspot at all....
I have seen posts that about changing proxy and get the internet with PIE to work but it doesn't mention about other programs like tomtom google map live search and i don't want to change it to the T-zones without confirming this.
Could anyone help please?
i'm in the same boat as you, the 5.99 works on my dash, so i'm expecting it to work on the tilt, but i just cant get it to work...now when i open up PIE, it goes from connnecting, to loading to opening, and just stays there and then gives me error #502... so if you figure it out, def let me know, thanks
omar
Same here, I have posted a thread about it already but no replies, Here. Do let me know it thr is any, n i'll do the same.
I can confirm t-zone plan works fine with google map, push mail to exchange servers, browsing using IE, and regular smtp/pop email. The weather update progam on the today screen does not work. On the other hand, SBSH Pocket Weather does work (I let it update throughout the day). NTP time server service also does not work (using CityTime).
1. add new modem connection -- cellular line (gprs, 3g);
2. access point name -- wap.voicestream.com
3. leave password blank
4. proxy settings check "this network connects to internet";
5. check "use proxy server"
6. proxy server: 216.155.165.50
7. advanced: change http port from 80 to 8080
Under network management, set Internet Connection to the account just created above. Leave private network as "My Work Network".
Soft-reset.
If you have trouble with POP accounts, edit each POP account and change connection away from "My ISP" to the t-mobile account.
Cheers
Okay i have tested this setting for T zones and i am trying to add a few details on it.
1st. Windows Live and Windows Live Messenger does not work =/ I guess it is because it doesn't support proxy connection. I am wondering if anyone can somehow mod it or change the proxy settings of these two programs with registry or other means so i can actually use it?
2nd. PIE works right away with the setting, but Opera won't. Later i add the proxy server in the Opera setting then it works like a miracle too=)
3rd. Some other IM site such as communicationtube.net does support the login of msn using T zones...Kind of a substitute even tho the stock messenger works much better.
4th. for 13 bucks/month the only different is probably only on Windows Live and Windows Live messenger....or if someone can actually provide a mod version of these two programs or a tweak that changes their settings. T zones works perfect for kaiser...
I can confirm that GMM works with the method listed in the link below with the $5.99 T-Mobile Web plan and WM5. But "My Location" does not, may be my phone (Cingular 3125) http://www.ehow.com/how_2245457_tmobile-shadow-any-windows-mobile.html

Can't get T-MobileWeb to work on Unlocked Tilt on T-Mobile

Did anyone successfully get T-MobileWeb to work on the Tilt to get internet access? I am able to send/receive email but cannot get PIE to connect tot he internet. I've setup the usual T-Mo proxy setting but is there another proxy in PIE somewhere? Is it an issue with PIE connecting through a WAP port?
Thanks.

I think therefore I am.... confused!!!
you need to search forums for tilt tmobile, thats what i had to do..how are your MMS working out... i cant get mine to work after i changed my proxy to get the $5.99 hack... i am thinking i might have to get the data plan.. let me know if you get it working...
these are the settings i am using;
Under Modem,Edit, needs to be wap.voicestream.com
under Proxy the setting needs to be, see below;
This network connects to internet, network uses a proxy server to connect, box need to be checked.. 216.155.165.50, then under advance
216.155.165.50 port:8080
216.155.165.50 port:1901
216.155.165.50 port:1901 or 03 worked for me
sockets, need to be blank
guys, i was able to get both working, however, not on the stock at&t tilt rom. first to get the mms working, i just went to settings-connections-connection setup, and let it setup ur settings for tmobile usa. this will not allow your mms to work. now go to the connections and modify the settings for the 5.99 plan (i posted the exact settings a while back, search for it).. all u pretty much gotta do is add the proxy. good luck
omar
ps..if ur using the tilt rom, i never got the mms working, and wasnt able to access the internet on the 5.99 plan. on the 19.99 plan worked fine tho

Here's the setting:

under proxy settings check: this network connects to the internet
check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
proxy server should be :216.155.165.50

under modem, your access point name should be : wap.voicestream.com

under advanced check use server assigned ip address

T-Mobile Total Internet
The only differences is instead of wap.voicestream.com, its:
internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com
And instead of ports 9201 its 9203.
i did try those settings...(that is what they are set to now) my internet has no problems, but my MMS does not... so i cant understand the prob!
I've tried all the settings provided by we3zy but still can't get it to work. In PIE, it kept on saying "opening..." and then came back with the following error:
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for url: /
Any thoughts?
- Thanks.
OK, got it to work with accessing internet and email by adding a modem setting. However, I have to switch the two connections depending on which function I need.
Under Setting, Connections, Advanced button, Select Networks...I need to do the following:
In the Network Management screen I have a few choices but only the two settings in the top choice (Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using: ) need switching. When I click on to select the choices, I have setup one for accessing the internet and another to get email.
Is this normal or am I the only one that have this issue? Its kind of annoying to keep on switching the setting for the functions. Any way to combine the two connections or have the device auto choose and connect automatically?

I really can't explain why your getting that problem. But visit www.yahoo.com and then visit google.com again. I had that problem on the iphone, don't know why.
Make sure you've checked:
use software compression
use ip header compression.
and all ports are 9201
the settings above worked to get ny internet browser up i am currently on google with the original at&t rom now im gonna check my emails and weather plug ins

They are all checked. I changed all ports to 9201 even the http and now when i open pie it says
"You do not have access rights to this site
URL=www.google.com/
Status=20(hex)"
Also it adds "wsp://" in front of any link i type in the browser. Maybe you didnt mean change the http port to 9201 but i gave it a shot. are you guys and XXwindowsXX using the 5.99 deal? and it works?
email routing issue + cannot download TM's w/ pics
Hi All ~~
It sounds like I may have found the right msg board! I am a T-Mobile customer using an unlocked AT&T phone with the original ROM (minus the bloatware). I currently have three msging accounts on the Tilt: text msging, a hotmail account and a work email account (which I check via Outlook on my PC). I am having two annoying problems:
(1) I keep getting TMs saying that I have received an email on my work account; however I cannot (a) get the text msg notifications to turn off, nor (b) get the emails to actually pull down into the account. So: I know I have a work email (even who from), but cannot read it. Any thoughts on how to resolve either or both of these issues?
(2) I cannot receive or send pic text msgs. Really annoying; I am curious to see how other T-Mobile Tilt users have their settings arranged for this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide ~~ Kim
TYTN/Hermes settings?
These settings in post four, would they be the same for the HTC TYTN/Hermes as well? After going into cnections, I notice that there isn't anything called connection settings. Just add new modem conection, proxy settings etc. I'd really like to be able to get this T-Zones up and running on my Hermes as well.
Thanks,
Cristobal

Yes, it should be. You'll need to add a new modem connection and edit the proxy settings. PM me if you can't get it to work and I'll try to help you.
Tilt Solution To Force Http Instead Of Wsp On Tmobile
Our good friends at ATT have two cab files in the \windows folder which install and remove a hidden proxy. By default, it funnels through the proxy.
​ BAD ATT! ​
If you are using T-mobile's 5.99 gprs plan and the HIDDEN proxy is enabled, all traffic will be routed through the hidden proxy and you will be forced to WSP:// pages. This will effectively lock you out of many of the sites that do not support the WSP protocol. Other carriers (Orange?) may be doing this too to drive WSP traffic.
To correct the problem, go to the windows folder and
1. run the restoreHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab
2. and then run the removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab file
3. Close your data connection and restart it. If you don't know how, just press the reset button.
After this is complete install the standard T-mobile GPRS settings and you should be in good shape. If you need a cab for t-mobile, search the board for the most current one or PM me. I keep one handy too.

So after doing that, will I be able to browse regular HTML pages (without going through proxies) using the 5.99 plan ?
i have a ty tn II and t-mobile is my carrier and i have the 19.99 internet plan,so i would like to know what are the correct settings for the MMS cause i cant sent picture messages nor recieve them..please help me thanks

try this:
server name: call it whatever you want
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: whatever you called the server name
Sending limit: 300k
WAP version: WAP 2.0
make sure you set this MMS server as default
The 5.99 plan requires a proxy. No exceptions that I'm aware of. The good news is that I've not found a page that I cannot browse. The speed isn't stellar, but quite acceptable. Additionally, since the power requirements for GPRS are low, I check email every 10 minutes.
There are a series of CAB files floating around here somewhere that have all the correct settings for each of the Tmo plans.
Same phone also ulocked for T-mobile Final solution
I suggest that you start afresh (Hard reset your phone)
then go to this link and download the cab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1521768&postcount=70
download this cab
tmobyjoe599.cab
I had the same problem as you but that worked for me and im sure it will work for you.
Oh before i forget make sure that you disable automatic wireless configurator, that stuff is crap.
p.s note to be a pain in the ass. Next time search the forum even google will lead you to the answer of your question.

HTC Weather and Proxy Authentication

I've searched the forums and I can't seem to find a solution to the fact that I can't download weather data while synced at work behind a proxy server. I'm able to connect to the Internet from IE and Opera with the correct Proxy information set in my Connection settings tab.
From my home wi-fi or home activesync, I connect fine, because there's no proxy required. Because I don't have a data plan, and I can't get the weather to update through my proxy at work, I'm limited to updates while I'm home.
Has anyone found a solution to this proxy authentication problem? Thanks!
The problem can be related with "Proxy manager". Try to disable proxy, it's in "Tools" section of "Programs".

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, EnergyROM doesn't have a "Proxy manager" folder under "Tools". I did, however, have the cabs for remove and restore hidden proxy. I tested after each install, but had no luck, although all my other Internet apps still connected fine.
The specific error I receive is:
Connection Error
There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. Retry?

May be your proxy server is banned by weather data provider
It is more likely that the provider is blocked by my corporate proxy. Where do I determine the url used for the weather feed so I can test from my PC?
Edit:
OK. If found the url. It is http://weather.not2advanced.com/htcweather/forecastdata.php?ac=XDADevs&locCode=%25ls&version= 1&device=innovation and I'm able to access it just fine from my desktop to which I'm synced. That puts the problem back to the application, in my opinion.
I suspect it could be related to the information located in the [Sep-14-08] HTC Weather Proxy Patch thread that with this fix, but there have be no updates for for TF3D or sense editions. I'm wondering if no one else is having the problem?
So... nobody else has encountered this issue?
Try AccuWeather.com service.
http://www.htc-touch-info.com/en/weather/
Thank you for you response. But I'm confused. How does changing the location of the server change anything if the weather application can't get out to it in the first place? Here's what I mean. While synced with my PC, I can open the above url in pocket IE and see the resulting xml data. This would mean my phone can resolve and receive data from the url through my corporate firewall, yet the manila weather still receives the 'Connection Error' when using the same address. To me, this suggests that the weather application isn't using the proxy settings specified in 'Settings->Connections->Connections->Edit my proxy server'.
Maybe I'm wrong. if so, perhaps you could explain it to me so I can understand.
Thanks again!
Roger
same here!
Same here, im using the same rom as u and Im having the exact same problem and its driving me nuts cus i really like this rom...but i like the weather updates 2!
If u get a solution pm me plz!
Cheers
no solution till now?
i have the same problem with my HTC TD2, Opera or iexlore are going fine through the proxy settings as i'm connectet via USB at work.
but all other applications don't (wheather update, GPS Tracks, Geocaching,...)
on Android systems there is a solution called TransProxy but not for WM6.5
Udo
There is a program called ProxyCap that has a decent version for Windows Mobile - http://www.proxycap.com/download.html
It's only a 14-day trial though =( But seems to be quite powerful. You could possibly also use it as a rule-based firewall, by forcing a certain port range or exe to use a proxy server that doesn't actually exist
It works well for me, when testing a SOCKS connection to Tor, but it only supports SOCKS4/5 and HTTPS (not standard HTTP) so now I have to install Secure HTTP support on my SQUID server! I haven't touched that thing for months!

[Q] Getting the App store to work over corporate domain Proxy server

One of my problem with just taking up the windows 8 phone challange is that inside a corprate network with a Proxy server in place that requires authentication the App store no longer works.
The advanced Wifi settings do not allow you to add a username / password to authenticate either and the browser setting don't allow you to enter anything regarding a proxy at all.
Has anyone got any ideas or developed anything to get around this problem?
The workarounds so far are to allow a seprate SID with open access as ISA servers even with a bypass rule fail to allow traffic for the APP store to pass.
Same here.
I can only browse with IE, I put the address of the proxy at the navbar (192.168...ect) then the IE ask for username/pass
i can,browse the internet, but the app store doesn't work, neither some apps like whatsapp for example
edit: same,with my wife's LG G2, I can browse the net, but the play store is not working.... I don't know much about the proxy servers so can't figure out why this happen
