I've been trying to setup my proxy here at work so I can get internet. The problem is, when I enter my proxy server URL its a HTTP so when you go into advanced settings for the wireless network, it won't save the proxy setting because its the HTTP. So I think I need to configure the proxy server on the web browser, however, Chrome doesn't have a function on the mobile version of Chrome to enter a proxy into it. I'm wondering, in order to get internet via the proxy, I need to get a different web browser in order to get it to work.
When I go to "Proxy hotename" I can't enter HTTP or have any // or the proxy. net/whatever. My work's proxy is something like this "HTTP :// prohost.work .net/workserver/proxy/ outbound.pac" and for some reason when I enter that in the proxy hostname it doesn't let me save since it recognizes its a HTTP. Then I don't know what "Bypass proxy for" means... It's just confusing and I'd like to get internet, I'm connected to the network but it only lets me go to 1 webpage which is my work homepage, any other website requires the browser to be configured for the proxy in chrome, but chrome doesn't have the proxy settings....
uuggg. Hopefully someone here can help me! thumb.gif
If someone has the Dolphin browser, could you guys see if there's a proxy HTTP input for that browser? I'd love to know and I can't download it here at work, but at least I'll know soon...

Try entering your info like this

proxy: prohost.work .net
port: 8002
proxy type(optional):HTTP

Coming Soon To A Nexus 7 Near You...


The ability to play media off of your USB sticks/cards WITHOUT ROOTING....

Amazing if they get this to work fully.

The preliminary model is already in the Play Store: Nexus Photo Viewer.

This would be huge for everyday users like myself.

*Note: It's starting off as an importer and going from there...so, it could be a little while if it actually works.

So to clarify the Google Nexus doesn't have a simple adapter that the Samsung tablets have which converts their port into a normal USB port without any rooting?

You have to go with the OTG adapter and rooting?

Just got the Nexus 7 today from staples. First off, even though it was sealed, there were a ton of fingerprints on the screen. Either way I continued to open it and turn it on. Now when I'm watching YouTube or even the Transformers movie that was included, the sound is distorted and scratchy coming from the speaker. And the volume is about 60%. Anyone else having this or notice this issue?

I'm unlocked and rooted but, not oc'ed...yet. Still really new to Android tinkering so I'm still reading up on how to flash this custom theme. Really like the look of that one.

These speakers are not overly loud. Light headphones/earbuds help. Have a look at some of the apps thehidecheck tried out and give them a go: Volume Boosting. To boost the volume of streamed/local/flash drive movies you watch you can use this version of Dice Player (never update it) with this ffmpeg file load as a plug-in--in the settings, Dice Player has a Volume Boost option.

Try some of the apps thehidecheck posted to see if you can get an overall volume boost before boosting in Dice too. Don't blow your speaker.

Strange, the nexus 7 comes wrapped in plastic that is selotaped and sealed. Didn't your device come like this?

Is there any actual reason to not root a nexus 7? I've not done mine yet but i fancy doing it then buying huge mem card and using otg cable. Also is it possible to use a mobile USB hdd!? If so how does it get power, do they need a molex?
