I was wondering how to set DNS server on my Android Phone’s Network.
Now, i found it, it’s simple just like we set DNS Server on Linux.
You’ve got to choose your fav. DNS, (i think there’s 2 best : Google DNS and OpenDNS), so it’s your choice 
Ok, if you already have resolv.conf before on your /system/etc/, we just need to set DNS server that you like..
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /system/etc/resolv.conf echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" > /system/etc/resolv.conf
On that example above, i set DNS Server for Google DNS. But, if you like to set Open DNS, you should change the IP address to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
and what if there’s no resolv.conf on my /system/etc? 
Ok, here we go..for 1st step, we need to make a file “resolv.conf” on /system/etc on your Android OS.
Maybe you could use ADB shell, i think.
adb shell [enter]
su [enter]
mount -o remount, rw /system [enter]
cat > /system/etc/resolv.conf [enter]
nameserver 8.8.4.4 [enter]
nameserver 8.8.8.8 [enter]
[ctrl+C]
Ctrl+C used for exit from editing file resolv.conf and exit from adb shell.
At last, we just need to set permissions “resolv.conf” to rw-r–r–, just type this command :
chmod 4755 /system/etc/resolv.conf
done..reboot your phone and goodluck!

Awesome! Thanks for the info!
I think these prices can vary, but it is always more expensive to import it from the US.
Personally my limit is $600, but that is just me.

The second echo statement should have a double “>>”, not a “>”.

The 4755 should read 644

Well, have you never tried the command “exit” (no quotes) instead of Ctrl+C ? This is correct

Hmmm, did not work for me. Also I would prefer to use the DNS server provided by DHCP
