well....already said it. need help configuring my android browser to work with tor. im using orweb now but it lacks important functions.
-
I use Orweb. I hate the fact that I cant bookmark or use multiple tabs. But whatever, maybe in the future.

If you're rooted then its easy. Just turn on global proxying in orbot and turn off JavaScript, cookies, and usage stats (along with anything else that may be slipping my mind) in the browser. If you aren't rooted I strongly suggest it, and I don't know anything about the functionality of tor on non-rooted phones. If you are rooted and are still having problems then try using global proxying instead of selecting the app. Even orweb doesn't seem to work for me without global proxying on.

Thanks much.....Ill look into this, its something new and untried.

orbot with orweb. I only use orweb to get on SR and these forums because it's a hideous browser for anything else.
-
Im using the orbot orweb package and it lacks cut/ paste on Silkroad. Man....I have tried to copy gpg keys without success. Even though they are ultimately useless to me on Android period. Im still waiting for fully functional gpg for Android.

I personally use a combination of orbot + firefox + Proxy Mobile 0.0.8 (ff addon). It works well and was easy to configure. When I tried using dolphin, the captcha code would never show up at the login screen. This method allows for multiple tabs, copy/paste, etc
