Nokia belle-Proxy Issue

5 replies · 9,850 views · Started 23 February 2012

Hello guys,

I own a Nokia c7 and I updated it to Nokia belle a few weeks ago.Everything on the device seems to work properly except for one very annoying issue which is the proxy setting.My university uses a HTTP proxy with username/password authentication ,which I already defined in the advanced settings section of the university SSID.This allows to me to use the browser normally without any problems.However my applications (such as Skype,Whats app and the Nokia store to name a few)aren't working.Is there anyway to make those application follow the same proxy I have already defined ? 🙄

Thanks
Bashar

Guys let me rephrase a bit ,I am behind my university proxy (HTTPS with Authentication ) and I am unable to connect Whatsapp and Skype through this proxy.My friends (with Android and IOS ) are able to connect ,although I must mention that my friend with Android uses a 3rd part app to force the proxy settings on apps (namely proxydroid).Is there anyway out there to help me out ?
Please Replay,thx 😊

Can any one over here help me.

Well considering that I at least figured out the web browser configuration I can help you with that,here is a guide to help you out:

I dont think there is a way to set proxy setting inside skype,or at least that whats I am aware of.
