The reason none of the previous patches will work is because the wrong
assumption people get from the badly designed QNetworkProxy class. I am
specifically talking about the HttpProxy and FtpProxy types specified in the
afforementioned class. 

Unfortunately unlike SocksProxy and HttpsProxy (which also is badly labeled
AFAIAC), the former types are only application when used in
QNetworkAccessManager, not low level classes like QTcpSocket that inherit from
QABstractSocket. If you chose to use QTcpSocket, then you have to connect to
the proxy server yourself, just like QNetworkAccessManager would. You cannot
simply call the setProxy(...) like it is currently done in both of the patches
shown in this bug report. Anyhow, good luck...
