Since off yesterday I'm using Genymotion as Android emulator.
Now I'm running a server on the emulator that listens to connections.
I'm running the client on my real phone on the wireless network.
My client has IP 192.168.0.196 ip address and my emulator has 192.168.56.101 as Ip address.
I also tried the 10.0.3.15 as ip address but that doesn't matter.
Whats the best way to connect my phone to the genymotion emulator?
Thought changing some settings in the virtual box but everytime when genymotion starts the settings are back to default :-).
Change the second network interface in VirtualBox to "bridged". This should enable Genymotion to automatically obtain an address in your local network (you need a DHCP server)

edit: I found my answer
I already know that if I would have a smartphone with an internet connection, I can share the connection through the Every Proxy app. This app allows to have an http proxy, and when you share your internet through usb cable, you can enter the proxy that the app has given, on windows. It's actually more helpful if you want to share your vpn connection.
I want to do the same, but in nox. I turn on my vpn and install Every Proxy on nox. The IP address the app give is 172.16.24.15. but trying this in windows; has no result.
I also used Fing to see my simulator IP address and it is 172.16.25.2 for the simulator router and 172.16.25.15 for the android itself.
in the system settings of nox > device > enable network bridge mode > DHCP, I get the IP address 192.168.1.3. now when I turn on Every Proxy, I set the IP address 192.168.1.3 instead of the previous 172.16.24.15. so I can use this new IP in windows settings and it works.
I am developing an Android app, and testing that on a real device.
I have a localhost server set up on my computer, and I want to the device to make request via my computer so that can access to this localhost environment in my computer.
I'm wondering if there is any tool in the adb shell that could allow me to proxy all network activity of the device by my computer, so it can access my localhost service?
NOTE: I know it works on emulator, I am just asking if this is possible on a real device.
Thank you
Install Fiddler on your computer, then on your android device connect to WiFi, long press your wifi configuration and choose modify network, then choose show advanced options and set the proxy field to your PC's IP address
In emulator am use this 10.0.2.2 ip address to test the application it work fine,but it not work for testing in android device.am connect the device through USB cable.How to test the app in device with local host.Can anyone know help me.
Start Wamp server on pc
Click Wamp windows taskbar
Click "Put Online" (bottom of wamp)
Run command prompt
type ipconfig and enter
Note your IPv4 address (192.168.1.206 in my case)
Make sure your pc and android connect with same wifi
Make sure your wifi network as "Home Network"
Open browser on android
Type your IPv4 address
I hope this help.
use The WIFI That is The Best Solution of your Problem..And Use Your IP Address for Connection ...from android device to the local server..:-)
USB won't provide network to you.
Hope this will help you.
How can I access my localhost from my Android device?
use Connectify Software, and insert the IP address of the system, in your android code instead of 10.0.0.2.
For Windows 10 Users
go to Control Panel-> System and Security->Windows Defender Firewall->Turn Windows Defender Firewall on or off.
Set both private and public network settings to off.
open a command prompt. type ipconfig and note your IP.
on your android device open a browser and type in your pc's IP.
I used this with WIFI and it worked fine.
I have built an Android application using the emulator to test. It connects to localhost to get and send data which works well. Now I want to try that application on my mobile device. I have read that I have to:
connect my computer to my router network
connect my mobile to my router network
go to the code and replace the 10.0.2.2 with the IP of my computer
Am I right? If so, is that computer's IP the IP that connects my computer to internet?
If you are developing in Eclipse, all you have to do is:
Connect your device to your computer with a USB cable
Right click on the root of your app
Select "Run As" > Android Application
If your device is connected, it should automatically run
Note sometimes you have to select whether you run on your connected device or on your emulator, but a window will display your options and your just select one.
Simple as that.
You are correct, when you simply connect to your local router you can get to your localhost by changing the configuration to point to: "http://10.0.2.2:8080"
I found the other ways to be very tedious

I want to connect to my app running in the emulator from another machine on my local network. The ip assigned to emulator is 10.0.2.15 while my host machine has ip 192.168.1.* . Is there any way to run the emulator in bridge mode such that it gets an ip in the range 192.168.1.* ?
The Android Emulator has a virtual router connecting it to the network. You can use the redir command to setup network connections. See this article:
