Is the phone itself blocking certain ports like 445 SMB protocol with Firewall S/W or KNOX or is Verizon itself blocking ports?

Hi everybody,
I am tring to debug an android app. I need to pass all the http trafic of my htc desire s through a proxy server( Paros, WebScarab, etc.) that i have on my pc. I need to intercept the http messages.
I have rooted the phone and installed a proxy on it. I have connected the phone and the pc to the same wifi so that they will be in the same network. After this i have put the pc's ip in the Proxy Host: "192.168.1.2" and the port "8080" on the Proxy Port field because Paros Proxy uses 8080.
I cant find a way to do make this work.. can someone help me? Is there another way or am i doing it wrong?
If you just need to intercept messages, why don't you run a sniffer directly on the phone ? There are a lot, and most use the tcpdump binary, that is very handy ! They output a .pcap file that can be handled by programs like Wireshark, NetMiner, ...
Otherwise you could sniff the traffic with a pc that has a wireless card that can be put in monitor mode (old eeepc FTW !). Then filter out only the traffic from<->to device.
If you really need to pass thru a proxy... well, have you tried connecting your own pc to the proxy, or any other pc in your lan? Does it work ? I don't know if Paros has this feature, but have you checked that the relay is open for all hosts on LAN or just loopback connection ?
Hi,
Here’s my situation – at my office they use Cisco IronPort to monitor and filter all internet requests. A transparent proxy is used on the network switches to direct port 80 traffic to the IronPort server. Initially only the browser on my phone would work as that is the only app that passes the correct authentication. All other apps fail to reach the internet. But the IronPort server can be configured to pass through a type of device if it can be identified. Using the IP address of my phone to filter the traffic logs, it seems that some apps pass “Windows Phone OS” in the data packets. And by adding “Windows Phone OS” to the IronPort exception list, those apps now work. But most apps still don’t work because they don’t include any windows phone identifier in the data packets. Can anyone provide any additional info on this subject or a possible solution?
Thanks.
bump... any ideas... anyone?
Use cellular data instead of your corporate network?
Use apps that use the new socket APIs, or connect to HTTP servers running on a port other than 80?
Complain to your IT people (commoditization of IT being what it is, I'm actually surprised by this restriction)?
See if you can get them using proxy authentication instead of packet inspection for authentication purposes (WP7 supports proxy authentication on WiFi)?

So I have a droid razr that has ipv6 functionality. I have my laptop which is also able to access ipv6 web pages. I have an ip cam app on my phone that runs a web server on :8080. I can't for the life of my connect to it over ipv6. On the other hand if I hook both devices up to the same wireless network I can connect to it over ipv4 without any issues.
My question is has anyone been able to run any kind of server be it vnc, web, whatever on their phone and make it work?
When using an S4 with (selinux enforcing) as a hotspot, is there any risk that a malicious webserver operator
can access the device using the carrier assigned (dynamic) ip address? If the IP is port scanned is the scan
of the device ports, ports on the pc connected to it, or the carriers server?
What type of protections (on the wan side) should be in place to properly secure an S4 with 4.3 for use as a hotspot
so the device itself can't be compromised? (assuming no 3rd party apps are installed) I assume device encryption would
not help this situation because the device has to be decrypted to run the hotspot. It's unclear samasung knox 1.0 could
provide anything useful, and I think they force packets through lookout so it slows the connection.
Hey guys! I'm pretty excited about my new phone but one thing that's killing me is the tethering feature. Apparently, it's blocking IPV4 traffic on specific ports.
I thought my 4G ISP was blocking these ports, but when i use my simcard on another phone (Moto Power e7 for this mater), it works normally to connect to a server (It's an AWS server used by Star Citizen).
Do you know a way to "unblock" TCP/UDP ports while using the USB / Wifi tethering from this phone?
Cheers.
