The Android developer docs say the following about `Settings.Secure.HTTP_PROXY`:

> 
> Host name and port for global http proxy. Uses ':' seperator for between host and port TODO - deprecate in favor of global\_http\_proxy\_host, etc
> 
> 
> 

But there is not any information about `global_http_proxy_host`. Now I always get `null` when trying to read `Settings.Secure.HTTP_PROXY`.

`Settings.Secure.HTTP_PROXY` was working properly in all releases before ICS.
