Comment:
Dinu - on a non-rooted device, you need to take additional steps for Tor
proxying to work.
If you are on a 3G network, you can set your Proxy settings within the
mobile network APN configuration. Point it to localhost:8118 (Orbot's
built in HTTP proxy).
You can also download Firefox for Android, and install the "Proxy Mobile"
add-on within Firefox. This will configure Firefox to point to the Orbot
proxy.
Otherwise, you can also try download the text-only browser "NDBrowser"
from within the Market.
If you want the full power of Orbot, then you should root and flash your
device with the latest CyanogenMOD firmware:
