I have samsung europa GT-i5500.

Basically I need proxy support and almost all wifi-proxy apps request that the phone should be rooted and have iptables support..

I have rooted the phone but don't know whether I have iptables support or not.

BTW Proxy is not working

You can check the defconfig of your kernel for the flag.You can
download the kernel for your product at the samsung opensource site.

I think there might be a KERN_INFO print somewhere during bootup about
iptables, when they are enabled, but checking the defconfig is more
reliable.

Hi Syed,
As per my understanding, We need to enable in the kernel configuration file.
 
CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER=Y , CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES=Y
the above flags and compile the kernel.
Then you are free to use IP Tables.
 
Thanks & Regards,
