If you are fairly savy with your phone, can you edit the file /opt/FeedingIt/config.py , on line 197, and change it from:
return (True, proxy)
to:
#return (True, proxy)

After that FeedingIt is able to update through wifi and 3g.
I got this hint from Slocan (thanks for that again), I'm not exactlly sure what function is hashed out, but it works... Maybe Slocan can enlighten us?
Your 3G connection has a proxy server defined, which FeedingIt normally checks for and uses (in some cases, ISPs will block anything not going through their proxy). By commenting it out, FeedingIt will think there isn't a proxy server defined and will connect directly instead.
