Do I need to manually set up Proxy for rooted phone?

Post by MSB »

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 with Lollipop and my phone is Rooted.

I installed ADP, but it doesn't seem to work unless I manually set up the proxy - and it doesn't work at all for non-WiFi connections.

I thought I didn't need to do the manual proxy setup for rooted devices?

I thought the only difference was that rooting allows you to use ABP on cellular connections.
There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed.

Yes, but neither is working.

If I manually update the WiFi connection, it works... but only for that connection. And it doesn't work at all for cellular connections.
