Comment (by arma):

 I'm not an orbot user, but, is the 'http' proxy setting just setting Tor's
 "HttpProxy" config option? If so, that's only used for vanilla directory
 connections, not for TLS connections, which explains why it didn't help
 you.

 For Tor Browser, we solved that in the interface by calling it "HTTP /
 HTTPS" for that option in the pull-down menu.
