Hi
Has anybody figured out how to use ASProxy
alsubang.github.com
or any other way on Android
to enable internet access for apps other then browser (i.e. pipe all traffic via port 80/443) on Unlimited Browsing Plans (not normall data plan)
like the one offered by Speakout 7-11 in Canada?
Would it require a separate computer running a proxy server since provider's
proxy (APN) will drop any packets with port other then 80 or 443?

By default, Speakout wireless only works for browsing (80, 443).
ASProxy enables Email, Map, Android Market, etc.
I found Skype does not work.
Enter the same APN settings into Asproxy and you should be good to go. I found voip apps still don't work. However, google voice works.
It took me a while to figure it out but here's what I did:
1. Make sure you have the Speakout APN profile entered into the phone and that you have data enabled.
2. Disable Wifi.
3. Stop ASProxy under its Status tab.
2. Delete all previous proxy profiles added under the Proxies tab (if your created any)
3. Under the settings tab, for Connection types choose "APN(3G/4G)" only.
4. ASProxy will automatically detect the phone's APN connection. A screen should pop up to set up a new Proxy with the following info - Connection Type: APN, MCC+MNC: 302720 and Operator: Rogers. If it does not, exit ASProxy and start it again, and select the "Proxies" tab - it should come up then.
5. For the new Proxy, you have to add some additional information (you also have to scroll down to fill in all of this info):
Proxy Type: HTTP
Proxy Host: 10.128.1.69
Proxy Port: 80
Bypass Local: [leave unchecked]
DNS Forwarding: None
Proxy Security: Basic
Username: wapuser1
Password: wap
Save the profile.
6. Under the Status tab, start ASProxy by touching the button.
You should be good to go.
Thanks.
I still can't get it to work!

What do you mean by Google Voice?
That you can open its web page and initiate a call?
BTW, are there any free alternative to ASProxy that can support WAP proxies?
BTW, is SO still 3G?
It works for some apps (browser, market, maps) but not for others.
Most notably, Google Talk doesn't connect.
Sync doesn't work. It works if I force it, but it won't sync automatically.
Alternative - ASProxy
Hi,
I was trying different softwares and none is perfect. "Proxymator" has the simplest UI and works with Google Maps, Gmail Facebook but not for Market and other apps. None of the voips work either. But I guess ASProxy is similar, not all apps work. I am waiting for a better "Proxymator" version.
Hope it helps...
Cheers

Well, while trying different apps, out of curiosity I installed "Autoproxy" developed by here in xda forum. Just forget about anything else mates. This is it...works beautifully with almost all apps. Just search the forum........
Hope this helps.
When researching the same question as to how to use Android Apps with the SO Unlimited Browsing plan, I came across this app (forum will not let me post link, sorry):
Orbot is an application that allows mobile phone users to access the web, instant messaging and email without being monitored or blocked by their mobile internet service provider. Orbot brings the features and functionality of Tor (read more below) to the Android mobile operating system.

I installed it and it seems like it could work for this, but I'm not proficient enough to figure out how to configure it, or if it is do-able. Google search term: 'Orbot, Tor on ANdroid'
Is there an equivalent iPhone app or way to get Speakout to work with other apps on an iphone?
There's a single app on my S3 which I'd like to configure so it accesses the Internet only via a certain SOCKS5 proxy server (while all other apps continue to access the Internet directly.)
I've tried ProxyDroid which allows setting a proxy on a per-app basis, but it has some serious downsides and overheads, so I'm looking for a different solution.
How can I set up, without a dedicated app such as ProxyDroid, all traffic from a specific app to go through the proxy?
From browsing through the ProxyDroid source code, I imagine one option would be to modify the iptables directly from the terminal as root. What would be the command for that? As it seems to require some uid of the app, how would I find out that uid?
Also, it would be great if the solution to this can be constructed in a way that can be used via a DroidWall custom script.
Many thanks.
I guess I'm looking for a proxy or something to block my IP. No mischief involved here, just looking for a tad more security while online.
I would like it to do my whole connection. Not just my browser or certain apps.
I'd need it for android.
If I get you right, what you need is a tool to filter certain IP adresses or hostnames. Otherwise I have no clue what you mean by

Without root you could try NoRoot Firewall, that sets up a local VPN service and allows you to filter all outgoing connections. Additionally you can enable global rules that block given destinations for the whole Droid.
Moreover, SRT AppGuard can do the same (and also disabling permissions), due it logs all connections and you can easily allow or disallow targets.
I need and app that allows me to see web connections on phones on my network like what a certain IP"connected to my WiFi" is browsing
App that allow you to see web connection
Not only an app, you are supposed to be having a paid firewall. It is having a network flow panel which will let you know how many devices are connected with your IP address and what http packets they are accessing.
Or if you are having a client server topology, then server logs can easily tell you which user is viewing what.
Even there are free tool for checking ip address-
1) Microsoft Network Monitor
2) Nagios
3) OpenNMS
4) Advance IP Scanner
you can also try "Norton Family" when you first register you have 30 days of trial for free.
Csploit does achieve this I believe, and you can also intercept other people's browsing.Though, you should be really careful when using it and you should really know what all the functions do. I do not recommend you using it, but if it is a one time quicky then sure.
I did a DNS Leaktest (https://www.dnsleaktest.com) and found my home WI-FI settings on my tablet were using Google's DNS servers for some reason. Not the ones set up in the router.
Thanks to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/general/root-required-manually-optimize-wifi-t3824977
Using a slightly different method than the OP in that thread, I am using the DNS server's I choose.
Cheers!
Do an extended test, you may find it can still get to 8.8.8.8, as it adds it as a 3rd DNS entry when doing the wifi advanced setup.
Is it possible to remove the Google DNS Entry completely without root?

I haven't found a way. I used a workaround instead. I block all known major DNS addresses in my router, pretty much making sure only my assigned pi-hole is used for queries. You could also block all outgoing traffic for port 53 except for your designated DNS resolver. Only issues here are that an app that uses hardcoded ip addresses or unknown DNS addresses can slip through. Also, with DNS over HTTPS, this is going to get a lot harder to manage. Firefox already enables this in the browser, letting all sorts of ads and possible malicous content through any filters that have been setup.
