Orbot fails to connect using VPN Mode (using Outbound Proxy)

Using an outbound proxy I'm 100% sure is working (since I use it to connect to the internet in general)

However, using Orbot on VPN Mode does not (it is stuck in 85% or 10%). It works when not using VPN Mode (using the usual method).

Using Orbot on VPN Mode without Outbound Proxies work (as expected I guess).

Tested on Android One (specifically Cherry Mobile One) and LG Optimus L3 II E425.

Disabling VPN Mode, the connection to Tor is a success, but as you expect, you cannot connect to Tor without the root-hook or the VPN mode. Enabling VPN Mode after making the connection to Tor also does not work. (for obvious reasons).

I assume this has something do to with the VPN function in Android screwing around with how Tor connects to outbound proxies...?
