I have a Samsung Galaxy S II running Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread, and I find the settings for Proxy server and port number exactly where you reported. As you wrote:<br />"You can give proxy setting also static ip, gateway, DNS etc. You need to go to Settings -> Wireless and Network -> Wi-Fi Settings -> press menu button and goto Advanced. There you can find all these settings."<br /><br />I had to completely power off and reboot the Galaxy 2 II after setting the Proxy server FQDN and port number in order for the settings to take effect.<br /><br />One caveat when accessing the internet from a WiFi connection inside a corporate IP network through an outbound Proxy server: Don't try to check for Software updates for your Galaxy 2 II phone! The Proxy server probably will not allow access to the service provider's (e.g. AT&T's) Android phone software update server. This results in a very long timeout, and then a false message is displayed that there is an update for your phone, but the software update server is too busy to respond. It also leaves a grayed-out "Continue update" item in the list when you go back into "Software update".<br /><br />If you are behind a Proxy server, and if you want to check for software updates for your Android phone, it's safest to disable the phone's WiFi connection and use your mobile data service while you are checking for software updates. <br /><br />Regards,<br />Douglas ZorkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-64537667924785809052011-10-01T02:13:46.435-07:002011-10-01T02:13:46.435-07:00Sahil,

You can set a static IP, default gateway, subnet mask and 2 DNS servers, but there is no way to configure a proxy server.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-10463025184182983352011-06-29T23:27:39.116-07:002011-06-29T23:27:39.116-07:00What about HTC Wildfire S??Thats also an Androind ...What about HTC Wildfire S??Thats also an Androind 2.3 is suppose.

As a corporate user I am perplexed as to why Google continues to flip the bird to the corporate user by not adding this basic feature to the OS. I hate to say it but I am going to have to seriously think about dumping this device and switch to and iPhone. New features are nice to have but why add new features when you don't have the basic features in place already.

And some great things for developer to use to help with their own apps performance. <br /><br />Other than the API, the new garbage collector will prevent the interface hiccups, and the app battery watchdog will stop any app that is sucking the CPU or keeping the phone awake when it shouldn't. Preventing bad apps from draining your battery.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12619994137203794498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-53510694066750348102010-12-06T14:25:39.724-08:002010-12-06T14:25:39.724-08:00(In the Nexus S, the only phone with Gingerbread.)...(In the Nexus S, the only phone with Gingerbread.)Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186394530871885873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-59510158793201031372010-12-06T14:24:51.307-08:002010-12-06T14:24:51.307-08:00I would be SO excited about this save for one sign...I would be SO excited about this save for one significant omission:<br /><br />There's no card slot!Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186394530871885873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-1085329538628360012010-12-06T14:12:01.772-08:002010-12-06T14:12:01.772-08:00I am hoping Google releases Google Music tomorrow ...I am hoping Google releases Google Music tomorrow since it would be a very Chrome-centric application.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-82224827007216912082010-12-06T14:05:07.787-08:002010-12-06T14:05:07.787-08:00I think it should be "a Revolutionary Update&...I think it should be "a Revolutionary Update".<br />I can't hold my breath to know that the NFC and Gyroscope system is now on Android, Nexus S!
