I've started a small HTTP server (KWS for Android) on port 8888 and set port 8888 in the "Hidden Services Ports" field and checked "Hidden Service Hosting". The hostname and private_key files are created (checked from root shell) but the service is not accessible.
Manually adding the service to app_bin/torrc and re-running tor makes the hidden service appear. I added this:
HiddenServiceDir /data/data/org.torproject.android/app_data/
HiddenServicePort 8888 127.0.0.1:8888
If I understand the Orbot sources correctly, the line it tries to add when enabling a service is
HiddenServicePort 8888 **0.0.0.0**:8888 (not sure if that makes a difference)
The ".Onion Hostname" field is _never_ populated, once again if I understand the sources correctly the getHiddenServiceHostname() private method in TorService is never called (in the latest version from Git).
Finally, when using the REQUEST_HS_PORT intent to trigger this externally, I get the dialog asking me to confirm the activation of the hidden service, then Orbot hangs altogether and must be force-killed.
I suspect this is due to the fact that the enableHiddenServicePort method in the Orbot class (https://gitweb.torproject.org/orbot.git/blob/HEAD:/src/org/torproject/android/Orbot.java#l357) is called from https://gitweb.torproject.org/orbot.git/blob/HEAD:/src/org/torproject/android/Orbot.java#l444 upon pressing the Accept button, on the UI thread, so the UI hangs while waiting for the hidden service to be created (and due to the defect above, it never returns).

- Galaxy S2
- XXKI4-based ROM (CheckRom RevoHD 2.0)
=> Android 2.3.5
- Siyah-Kernel 2.2b4
As the iptables-binary of e.g. Droidwall works perfectly well, it might be a linking problem.
Replacing Orbots iptables-binary with the one from Droidwall enables all expected functions (transparent proxying etc.).
Stacktrace is attached. I called "iptablesorig --list" (renamed the binary) manually from a terminal to provide this information.

* The obfsclient binary built with debugging information is gigantic, stripping after build is recommended.
* UI work for pluggable transport protocol selection.

If you are the proxy administrator, please put the required file(s)in the (confdir)/templates directory. The location of the (confdir) directory is specified in the main Privoxy config file. (It's typically the Privoxy Install directory, or /etc/privoxy/).
