Monitor Android Traffic with Wireshark (Windows)

By | 15 May 2014

Preparation

You need tcpdump for Android (I used it from the “Shark for Root” app) and Netcat for Windows (I used Ncat from Nmap for Windows).

Setup Capturing

Open 3 shells. Run these commands:

1st shell:

adb shell "su -c '/data/data/lv.n3o.shark/files/tcpdump -n -s 0 -w - port 443 | nc -l -p 11233'"Code language: JavaScript (javascript)

2nd shell:

adb forward tcp:11233 tcp:11233Code language: CSS (css)

3rd shell:

ncat 127.0.0.1 11233 | "C:\Program Files\Wireshark\Wireshark.exe" -k -i -Code language: JavaScript (javascript)
