Proxy which requires authentication with Android Emulator

Question

Answer 1

I was able to view the traffic with an HTTP sniffer instead of a proxy. I used HTTPScoop, which is a nice little app.

Also the nice thing about using HTTPScoop is that I can also see traffic on my actual device when I turn on internet sharing and have my phone use the wifi from my mac. So this is a good deal for debugging what happens on the phone itself AND the emulator.

This way it doesn't matter what emulator you use, because the sniffer sees the traffic independent of the emulator, device, compiler settings etc.
