May 23
Proxoid : use android as a gsm modem (under ubuntu)
- install proxoid
- enable usb debug mode
- go to http://code.google.com/p/proxoid/
- read install instructions on http://code.google.com/p/proxoid/wiki/installationLinux and follow steps (see below details for sdk and adb tool)
NB 1 : For step 4 (configure browser), with chrome : Preferences > under the hood > proxy, and you can activate the proxy system-wide from here.
NB 2 :
adb tool (in step 3, tunneling)
- download / unpack android sdk in directory of your choice. You’ll see a file “adb_has_moved.txt” with these instructions.
- run {sdk unpack directory}/tools/android
- install ”Android SDK Platform-tools”
- Then you can run {sdk unpack directory}/platform-tools/adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080
NB 3 : AFAYK it doesn’t work if wifi is active on the phone
NB 4 : instead of :
sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
make :
sudo service udev restart
——— after install – checklist/commands to redo if it’s not working ———
check if proxoid is started on your phone
lsusb to check if phone is visible
sudo service udev restart
<sdk directory>/platform-tools/adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080
