Originally assigned to: @NghiaTranUIT on GitHub.

Proxyman version? 3.5.0

macOS Version? 12.3.1

Steps to reproduce

Open the certificate screen for Android emulator.
Press "Override Emulator".
Wait for the override script to complete and restart the emulator.
Go back to the emulator. Look at the Wifi configuration.
Notice that the current network connection has no proxy settings set.

Expected behavior

Script should be setting the device proxy settings on the network connection.

Screenshots (optional)

Sorry, it's not a bug from Proxyman. It's how adb command works.

Basically, the emulator is overridden by this command adb shell settings put global http_proxy $ip $port, and adb command doesn't update the UI.

I tested and It still works. Proxyman still captures the traffic.

Proxyman still captures the traffic, however without setting this manually after the script I've found that SSL requests do not function. I get this after running the script:

Once I have manually set the the proxy settings via the Android UI in the emulator, SSL requests suddenly start working as expected.

I appreciate this could be wholly an Android issue, just wasn't sure so thought I'd raise it here.
