Just put an SO SIM in a newly purchased Android device (a Viewpad with Android 2.2.1) and activate the web browsing plan. Regular web browsing seems working OK. But whenever I need to access a site using HTTPS, like gmail, picasa, etc, it simply stucks there, and no error message displayed like DNS error or whatever. Could anyone enlighten me what might go wrong?
I double checked the APN and proxy setting and they are correct
APN: goam.com
username: wapuser1
password: wap
Proxy: 10.128.1.69
Port: 80
I even changed the proxy to 172.025.000.107 as one of the previous post suggested, but it's still the same -- port 80 works fine but not port 443 for https.
Any help will be highly appreciated. I need to make a decision about whether it's worth to invest on another SO phone to use its SIM on data.

I am not very familiar with Android settings, but the SSL proxy also has to be set for port 80 also, not 443.

Thanks a lot for your help, Bridonca.
Could you let me know how to set the SSL proxy, maybe on your phone, so that I can have some idea?
I am also a newbie to Android, but otherwise quite experienced on networking. Still I couldn't find anywhere on my device to change the network setting other than the APN part.
I can do the general web browsing but can't do anything involving https, like login to gmail or picasa. It pretty renders the web browsing on SO useless. Have you guys ever had such problem?

It is the main reason why I am holding off on getting an Android phone, correct proxy settings are a bear to configure! Just a quick scan on google shows me I have to root the phone are do some arcane settings to get ssl to work. I hope that is not the case.

I am having the same challenge accessing HTTPS sites. The SO card worked fine on my Blackberry Bold with accessing HTTPS sites, but when I upgraded to a Nexus S, I can't seem to access the secured sites. Not sure what to do, as the Blackberry sucked at surfing the web. If anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated.

netyang, wondering if you could let me know your settings, as I can not seem to connect to https at all. It just stalls. APN Settings are as follows:
APN: goam.com
Proxy: 10.128.1.69 or 172.025.000.107
Port: 80
Username: wapuser1
Password: wap

I could not access HTTPS sites as well using the native browser on my Koodo Nexus S.
I downloaded Opera Mobile from the Android Market.
Using Opera Mobile as your browser you will be able to access HTTPS and HTTP web sites.
For some unknown reason to me the onboard web browser of Nexus S hangs up when you try to access HTTPS.
