script for running mitmproxy in transparent mode

Installing mitmproxy cert on android phone:

• open chrome
• go to: mitm.it
• click on the android logo to download cert
• If you receive a notification "failed to install cert"
• • go to Settings > Security > Install from storage
• • the cert should be under Downloads, click to install

Troubleshooting:

• The script should give you instructions on how to setup, if it still doesn't work; try the following
• make sure computer and phone are on same wifi network
• check that all ip addresses/ports/etc. are entered correctly in the phone's wifi settings
• tell the phone to forget the wifi connection and turn the phones wifi off and on
• you’ll have to enter the advanced settings again
• • This happens frequently on android 7.0 or higher

For android 7.0 and higher

• Only “System” certificates are trusted, so the certificate must be moved manually
• Connect phone to usb and enable developer settings/ debugging via usb
• The phone must first be rooted to perform the following commands adb shell

su

cd /data/misc/user/0/cacerts-added

cp XXXXXXX.0 /system/etc/security/cacerts/ (use filename of cert)

• if command fails, enter: mount –o rw,remount /system and try the previous command again

chmod 644 /system/etc/security/cacerts/XXXXXXX.0

mount –o ro,remount /system (if the previous remount command was necessary)

• restart the phone and go to settings > security > trusted credentials and make sure you see the certificate under system
