How to set my Android Device as Proxy Server?

Asked By Blake 260 points N/A Posted on - 11/28/2011

I am using an Android device with lots of applications installed on it.

I have read some sites that I could use my Android device to customize and set it up to make it a proxy server.

How does it happen and if it’s possible, how can I perform it?

Thank you.

How to set my Android Device as Proxy Server?

Hi Blake,

You can customize and make your Android Device as a proxy server. First, you should enable first the "Development" feature on your Android device. To do that, go to "Menu", choose "Settings", select "Applications" and enable "Development" and also, enable "USB Debugging".

After enabling those settings, download a proxy server via Android Market, if you want a free version, you can try Proxoid, but I recommend PDAnet proxy server since it is easy to use, no root required, risk free and easy to set up, but you should buy a $30 PDAnet software to your computer to get it work. 

To gain access via internet your mobile phone, tap PDAnet application on your phone and click "Connect" in the PDAnet on your computer.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jeric
