(If adb tells you that you need to reboot, reboot again adb reboot and run adb remount again.)

perform remount of partitions as read-write: adb remount.

disable secure boot verification: adb shell avbctl disable-verification.

Start the desired AVD: emulator -avd -writable-system (add -show-kernel flag for kernel logs).

List your AVDs: emulator -list-avds (If this yields an empty list, create a new AVD in the Android Studio AVD Manager).Tested on emulators running API LEVEL 29 and 30 # Instructions Otherwise Android will load a “clean” system image. Keep in mind: You always have to start the emulator using the -writable-system option if you want to use your certificate. Some smart guy on Stackoverflow found a way to get the /system directory writable anyway. April 2021), the instructions in this workaround will result in your emulator getting stuck in a boot loop.

The following steps describe how to gain write permissions on the /system partition and how to copy the certificate created in the previous step. By default, the /system partition is mounted as read-only. Now we have to place our CA certificate inside the system certificate store located at /system/etc/security/cacerts/ in the Android filesystem. Insert certificate into system certificate store

Generate hash and copy certificate : hashed_name=`openssl x509 -inform PEM -subject_hash_old -in mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer | head -1` & cp mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer $hashed_name.0.

Enter your certificate folder: cd ~/.mitmproxy/.

Otherwise Android will ignore the certificate.īy default, the mitmproxy CA certificate is located in this file: ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer # Instructions It is necessary to figure out the hash of your CA certificate and copy it to a file with this hash as filename.

If the folder is empty or does not exist, run mitmproxy in order to generate the certificatesĬA Certificates in Android are stored by the name of their hash, with a ‘0’ as extension (Example: c8450d0d.0).

Usually located in ~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer on Linux systems.

adb usually located at /home//Android/Sdk/platform-tools/adb on Linux systemsĮxport PATH = $PATH: $HOME/Android/Sdk/platform-toolsĮxport PATH = $PATH: $HOME/Android/Sdk/emulator.

emulator usually located at /home//Android/Sdk/emulator/emulator on Linux systems.

The proxy settings of the AVD are configured to use mitmproxy.

The AVD must not run a production build (these will prevent you from using adb root).

PrerequisitesĪndroid Studio/Android Sdk is installed (tested with Version 4.1.3 for Linux 64-bit)Īn Android Virtual Device (AVD) was created.

In this case you have to patch the application. Please note, that apps can decide to ignore the system certificate store and maintain their own CA certificates. In order to avoid having to patch each application, which we want to monitor. Since Android 7, apps ignore user provided certificates, unless they are configured to use them.Īs most applications do not explicitly opt in to use user certificates, we need to place our mitmproxy CA certificate in the system certificate store,
