I'm trying to capture results from an Android device only, but I keep seeing results from my MAC as well.
I've tried excluding 127.0.0.1 and the address for the HTTP proxy (from Help>Install Charles Root Certificate on a Mobile Device) in recording settings.
I've also looked up the ip address for the phone and enabled only it in SSL Proxying Settings (instead of .)
Suggestions?
1) You should turn off this option in the Charles app:
Proxy > macOS Proxy
2) You can also check that the network adapter you are using does not have a proxy configured:
System Preferences > Network > mark the first connected adapter from the list on the left, e.g.: Wi-Fi and click the Advanced... button > make sure that there is no proxy configured on the Proxies tab
If you see that the localhost is set as proxy, clear the settings:
The first method does the same as the second one, but sometimes the Charles app does not remove properly proxy settings from the network adapter, so you must delete it manually.
If the problem you have is that too many requests make it difficult to find the ones you want to work with you can use the "Focus" option by right-clicking on a request you want to monitor in the requests pane and select Focus. Note that you can focus on multiple hosts.
This will make request from other hosts get grouped under a "Other hosts" entry in the requests pane, so they won't disturb your work anymore.
I am trying to set charles proxy on Android 8.0( S8 ). I have installed the root certificate-> Changed WIFI settings to charles proxy settings. But After connecting to proxy, Internet connection is lost. Tried multiple times. Is there any other security certificate I need to install for Android 8.0. Please suggest. Thanks
The sequence of steps is really important:
Connect the Android device and the computer that running Charles to the same LAN (WiFi) network
Start Charles
Then set the Charles machine LAN IP as manual proxy on your phone. Open the list of Wifi connections, then touch and hold the connected network, and select Modify network.
Proxy: Manual
Proxy hostname: Open the Help > Local IP Address menu in Charles and paste into it the address displayed
Proxy port: 8888 (This is the default value that can be changed in the Proxy > Proxy Settings menu.)
Open a browser on your phone and make some network traffic
After that you have to click into the Charles app window. You will see a confirmation dialog that asking you to allow network traffic from the mobile device, press Allow.
After all, open the https://chls.pro/ssl URL on your device and install the .pem file for VPN and apps (Use Chrome browser on Android, and Safari for iOS devices.)
Troubleshooting
When Charles is the background, the confirmation dialog will not be visible automatically, you have to activate (bring back to the foreground) the Charles application window to see it.
To check the device connection permission, go to Proxy > Access Control Settings. You should also see its LAN IP on the list.
To getting your Android phone LAN IP address open the Dialer and enter: *#*#4636#*#*, then select Wi-Fi information > WiFi status and refresh stats.
If anyone who is still looking for answer then try these steps. It worked for me ☺️
When you enter proxy, there will be one more option that is "Bypass for" in this field enter * as value, and thnx me later.
I have recently downloaded Genymotion in hopes of having a speedier emulator for working in Android Studio. Everything looks like it downloaded correctly, and I have linked my Genymotion to my Android Studio. The problem is when I try to sign into Genymotion, it keeps saying "unknown generic error." I have contacted Genymotion many times about this issue, and they have not gotten back to me. I even tried re-downloading Genymotion, and creating a new account. Nothing seems to help.
In your GenyMotion go to:
Settings -> Network
Check Use HTTP Proxy
Insert HTTP Proxy and Port
Click "OK"
Now try to login genymotion.
Hopefully it helps
Mine got resolved by doing the following:
Opening Virtual Box -> Preferences -> Network - > host-only networks -> Edit Virtual Host-Only Ethernet Adapter -> DHCP Server -> uncheck Enable server.
it may help some.
I had the same issue but I solved it by this steps
1. get your Ip address that you use it to enter internet
2. open network and sharing center
3. open virtualbox host-only network
4. put your internet Ip as default gateway and prefered dns server
it should work after that.
Explanation: virtual machine made a network card and give it default IP "192.168.56.1" if this IP can't access internet so you can't login so but your internet ip as default gateway and dns
that's worked for me.
I had the same issue and I logged in at Genymotion website and then I tried logging in with app. It worked for me.
Almost like #Flowra mentioned:
Find the IP address and default gateway of your network (cmd ->
ipconfig).
Open Network and Sharing Center and click on Virtual Box host only Network.
Click Properties -> IP4 Properties
Put your network's default gateway (eg. 192.168.1.1) in the default gateway and your IP address as the Preferred DNS Server
Then restart Genymotion.
I fixed it by enabling network access in AhnLab Internet Security blabla installed in my computer.... That app is blocking the network access in Genymotion...
I have faced the same issue...
First
Open Virtual Box -> Preferences -> Network - > host-only networks -> Edit Virtual Host-Only Ethernet Adapter -> DHCP Server -> uncheck Enable serve
Then
Open setting "Open Network and Sharing Center" > Change Adaptor Setting > Right Click on "Virtual Box Host-Only Network" > Properties > Select "Internet Version Protocol 4 (TCP / IPv4)" > Click on "Properties" Tab > Check "Obtain IP Address Automatically" as well as "Obtain DNS Server Automatically"
At this point, the problem still wasn't solved
Finally
Open Antivirus >Internet & Network > Programme Rules > Allow Genymotion
and it's done!
Try different types of networks. If it fails, click the login-in button more than one time, and then it will work.
I use window 7 n use Internet Connection by wireless, not LAN cable.
Open settiing "Open Network and Sharing Center"
I've 2 network :
2.1 Wireless connection (that have Internet connection)
2.2 VirtualBox network (that no network to access internet)
Check my IP Address from wireless connection (2.1)
Example : 192.168.aa.bb subnet : 255.255.255.0 gateway: 192.168.aa.1
Open my VirtualBox network n I found this:
IP Address : 192.168.xx.yy subnet: 255.255.255.0
Make IP from Wireless as Preferred DNS Server
Change subnet from VirtualBox to 255.255.0.0 (because aa different with xx, so I use subnet class B --> 255.255.0.0)
And I successfullly login in genymotion to choose n download new virtual device.
So, this is my final setting for VirtualBox network:
IP address: 192.168.cc.dd
Subnet: 255.255.0.0
Default gateway: -empty-
Preferred DNS server: 192.168.aa.bb --> IP my internet connection (2.1)
Alternate DNS server: -empty-
Hope my answer can help U.
The way i fixed it:
1.- Unplug LAN cable, connect to my WiFi network
2.- Retry to sign in to Genymotion
And it worked :-)
If "Remember my credentials" is checked, try logging in with it unchecked. It asked me my credentials every time, but it works.
I faced the similar problem, I just unchecked the http proxy setting in Setting->Network->Use http Proxy, and logged in. The problem is solved.
If this does not work go to Genymotion Site and try edit the password and try again.
Hope this will help.
(worked with my case)
In your GenyMotion go to:
Settings -> Network
Uncheck Use HTTP Proxy
Just login to the website, https://www.genymotion.com (on your browser) and your problem will be fixed.
If doesn't: Search for your WiFi's server IP (ex. 192.168.1.1).
Go open your VirtualBox>Preferences>Network>Host-Only Network.
Edit: VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter
Change IPv4 Address to your Internet's IP and also all other similar to the former number you've replaced.
I have my device connected to debug Android apps, but I need to see the HTTP requests and responses (inc. header info).
I've seen a similar question asked on how to do this for an emulator, but how to do this when a real device is connected?
You can use Charles, is a really powerful tool that does exactly what you need.
Charles allows you to sniff the packets sent through HTTP from your actual device, the way you use it is simple:
Download and install Charles, run the program and specify the proxy port
Connect the Android Device to the very same network of the computer running Charles
Go to Wifi-Settings in Android Device and long tap on the network connected, then go to Modify Network-> Show advanced Options
Set Proxy as Manual and in Proxy Host name set your computer IP "192.xxx.x.x" and in the Proxy port add the same port specified in Charles Proxy Settings.
And that's it, all the traffic from your phone will be proxy to charles and it will show you headers, parameters, etc...
Hope it Helps
Regards!
I want to look at trafiic on Android Emulator in Eclipse through Fiddler.
Capturing on all processes is still missing non-browser trafiic. My Emulator Android have proxy setted to my local machine but i see ony Browser traffic.
You may have gone through these same steps, but here is what I did to get it to work. I pieced together info from different sites including Fiddler2.com:
In Fiddler, click Tools / Fiddler Options / Connections and ensure that the box Allow remote computers to connect is checked. (Restart Fiddler if this box wasn't already checked .)
Then Note the IP Address of the Fiddler PC; you can see this by hovering over the icon in Fiddler's toolbar: (it's just the IP of your pc):
Then on the emulator go to Setting->Wireless&Networks->Mobile Networks -> AccessPointNames. I used the existing APN (T-Mobile US) and just changed the Proxy and Port.
Proxy is just the IP from previous step (I did not need to enter http://)
Port is 8888
Restart the emulator and you should see your app traffic in Fiddler.
