What you want to do exactly? Bypass the proxy?

No.I want to use the proxy for my apps.For eg playstore can be accessed from browser but not app because the proxy is not configured.

What are you talking about
What proxy are you using? It's an app your installed? Proxies are for browser usually i don't understand why you're talking about app and proxy that doesn't work together.
Can you tell me more about what you try to do?

So you're trying to say that only the browser works and all other apps have no internet access?? Facebook and stuff?
Edit: Finally understood the situation, if you're using the schools wifi and they blocked apps to work (my college wifi does that too), the only way to get it to work is if they unblock it themselves. That's why you should get a data plan lol

Haha! Here we are! You're trying to bypass the security proxy of the wifi
If it's your wifi desactivate it, if you're in public place or school, you're *****ed

Is VPN an option for you? Sounds like deep packet inspection to me. If you'd use VPN your whole traffic will be encrypted. So no dpi to look in your traffic

May be you can try Hotspot shield or Hola.
I prefer Hola -better internet this gives per app proxy & in yhe list of apps try tethering apps
you may not be able to use wifi tethering if disabled form operators side.
If you use Hola then enable unblocker, enable acceleration, then tap on unblocker see the list of apps select the country you want & Run(play) the app.
but you can try VPNs(Hotspot shield & Hola) for same & report here if it works.
Hit Thanks If i helped.

Please try this
Install the apk
Then go into Settings -> Connections -> More Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names. Once there, press menu, and choose "Reset to default". (Make sure you have at least one apn checked after resetting defaults)
Then try Tethering. You may or may not need to reboot after resetting APNs.
Let me Know
Get Wifi tether router set interface to wlan0 then create new APN, name whatever you want, apn to fast.t-mobile.com and make sure it's set to ipv4. Set tether provisioning in build prop to false. Reboot. Enable wifi tether and try it out, should be good. I set the build prop tweaks in 3c toolbox so it should stay, tethered around 12 gigs so far with no issue.

Possible solution to the H+ issue

Dear all,
I know so many of you have been suffering from this issue of H+ not working as it should on Oneplus 5, I myself have suffered a lot from that until I have started using "AdGuard Pro."
I would suggest you give it a try and report back.
Note that I am not making any marketing for this app, I just share the information with you as I know many have this H+ issue.
I am currently using OOS 4.5.13 with no mods at all.
I have also noticed my speed has almost doubled on H+ now.
I hope that I am not just lucky, I hope it works for you as well.

AdGuard. Here's the link https://www.google.ht/url?sa=t&sour...0Q5YQBCDgwAA&usg=AOvVaw0iw7jR6tG8_GujChWEPpwi
Missleading. PlayStore version of AdGuard are restricted to only Yandex Browser and Samsung Internet browser. Full version cannot be downloaded from PlayStore (adblockers are restricted by Google).
Full version is available at adguard.com
Sounds like you have DNS issues.
Have you tried one of the DNS changers to see if it fixes it? Google's is ok
Somehow with the help of a dns changer app i'm not facing any h+ issues
I hope that this is the solution

I'm testing, I'll tell you if it works
And I want to add that the common point between adguard and the "DNS changer " app is that those two apps create a local VPN connection :see the "key" symbol in my screen shot. It means that a local VPN connection is running.
Maybe it means that having a local VPN running solves the issue with 3g/H+

Which server should I choose to connect? google?
And which settings did you explicitly change in that app?

Ad blocker

I'm rooted, using Adaway, but I see more ads in my Chrome browser than ever before. What's the ad blocker everyone is using? I prefer a non VPN type solution. I think that's what Blokada is?

Just go to settings>connections>more connections>private DNS and change it from automatic to private and type this address in it
dns.adguard.com. all of my ads are permanently gone.

Hmm, I never found that to block ads in apps. But maybe a combo of adguard DNS and Adaway would work.

Adguard looks setup in DNS but the adguard test page says it's not setup.
Try with nextdns.io

Since you're rooted, can use Adguard and use it via proxy instead of VPN.

At the top it says not enabled but at the bottom suggests I am? This is with just the private DNS setting. It looks like this with the app, too.
