I was just chatting with Nathan, he figured out a way using a small DNS
daemon to get DNS working better in Orbot's VPN mode.  I was thinking
that this would also help with Orwall's transparent proxying issue with
Android thinking that wifi connections do not have working internet:

While Nathan got it working using a native code daemon, we came up with
an idea that hopefully will prove to be the ideal solution: Java code
that serves as a DNS-UDP forwarded to DNS-TCP.  Then any DNS server that
supports TCP (which is most) can be used through Tor.

Here's one project that looks like a promising source of code:
