Hello all,

I am new to the Android family and have just bought my first Android phone the AT&T Note 2. At home and about town in the states the phone is phenomenal, so far I am loving Android, except for the minor flaw of it not having global proxy permissions for all apps.

I am on a corporate network which uses a proxy with authentication, and also has some sites blocked of course, facebook, pandora, etc. I know that you probably tire of the endless comparisons of iphone to Android, but by setting up my iphone and hitting a proxy app I could use the facebook app, magic jack, pandora, or whatever.

I have rooted the Note 2 running JB 4.1.2, and have installed ProxyDroid and BusyBox. I assumed by putting in the info of the proxy into ProxyDroid would connect it automatically. I have had some success some apps would work intermittently like skype and whatsapp, but the playstore and most of the other apps will not connect. I can surf the web, under restrictions of course, with Opera Mobile because I entered the proxy info directly into the app.

Now to the meat of things:

The WiFi settings are as follows:
EAP: PEAP
PHASE 2: MSCHAPV2
No Certificates
Correct Identity
No Anonymous Identity
Correct Password
Proxy settings Manual
blahblahproxy800.corp.company.com
Proxy Port: 80
No Bypass
IP: DHCP
the security is 802.1x EAP

ProxyDroid Settings:
Host: blahblahproxy800.corp.company.com
Port: 80
Proxy type: HTTPS
Auto Connect ON
BOUND to network SSID
Authentication on
Correct User
Correct PW
NTLM Authentication ON
Domain: corp.company.com
Global Proxy ON
DNS Proxy ON


I know that rubbish up there is a lot of information, but I am a complete noob in the world of Android. I can give the settings that I have in the Iphone to connect if you need them, but if you have any experience with it you know that it is extremely easy to set up. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Is there something missing in my setup? Do I need to add anything else app or settings wise? Or do I just have to accept it and leave my shiny new note as a paper weight until I go on days off, and use the Iphone while I am here?

Thank you all in advance for you help on this and the help that you gave me while I was stalking the boards getting info on how to root.

Cheers
