I found something here that looks like it might work

package com.BrowserSettings;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.provider.Settings;

public class BrowserSettingsUI extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button01);
        button.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                try {
                    Settings.System.putString(getContentResolver(),  
            Settings.System.HTTP_PROXY, "127.0.0.1:100");//enable proxy
                }catch (Exception ex){
                }
            }
        });

        final Button button2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button02);
        button2.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                try {
                    Settings.System.putString(getContentResolver(), 
            Settings.System.HTTP_PROXY, "");//disable proxy
                }catch (Exception ex){
                }
            }
        });
    }
}

You must add

to your manifest.
