No outbound traffic for Tweetcaster

[fredsie]

Since installing Adblock on my Android phone I cannot post tweets with the twitter client Tweetcaster. The Tweetcaster incoming stream is unaffected. I switched off filtering and Tweetcaster outbound starts working again. Is there a fix for this?

We'd need to figure out what URLs Tweetcaster uses to send messages and why they are blocked (most likely by EasyList).

or .. if https traffic that server should be added to the bypass proxy list

OK, thanks, I think I understand what's going on now.

But I have no idea what the relevant URL is for Tweetcaster, or how to find it out. I also note that Adblock Android is stopping me from replying to you on this site! I had to revert to the desktop.

Does this mean I have to go thorough some process to find URLs and allow traffic for every service I use? Seems a bit cumbersome.

if https traffic, ABP (which is a proxy on android) can not manage it, so you should bypass that server (using the integrated bypass proxy list)

Sorry I'm being a bit slow. Where is this "integrated bypass proxy list"?

OK, thanks, it's the list in the wifi settings.

So all I have to work out now is what to put in it for Tweetcaster. I've guessed at tweetcaster.com (you never know!), but that didn't work. I don't know how to find what URL the app communicates with, and I don't think the good folk at Tweetcaster will be rushing to tell me as they use ads as a lever to get people to buy the ad-free version (which ironically I have).

you need some network traffic tool

read this http://developer.android.com/tools/debu ... ml#network
"The DDMS tool included in the Android SDK includes a tool for monitoring network traffic."

OK, thanks all!
