Question

Guys,

I want to to use the browser inside the Android Emulator, and i want to use the proxy settings on my machine, how can i setup this.

Reading the very good manuals of android, they tell me i should start android using the following command

emulator -avd myavd -http-proxy http://168.192.1.2:3300

But still am not able to use the emulator browser.

Please note am using the IPAddress for my proxy server.

This will not help for the browser, but you can also define a proxy in your code to use with a HTTP client:

// proxy
private static final String PROXY = "123.123.123.123";
// proxy host
private static final HttpHost PROXY_HOST = new HttpHost(PROXY, 8080);
HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
httpClient.getParams().setParameter(ConnRoutePNames.DEFAULT_PROXY, PROXY_HOST);
