CONFIGURING FIDDLER
First we need to configure Fiddler to accept traffic from the emulator. In this case I am running Fiddler on the machine that is also hosting the emulator.
?
1. Start Fiddler
?
2. Go to Tools, then Fiddler Options
Figure: Going to Tools –> Fidler Options
?
3. Configure General and Connections tabs to look like the ones below:

?

?
4. Click OK
?
5. Quit and Relaunch Fiddler (important!)
?
6. Enable the Streaming feature in Fiddler so HTTP requests are shown as they occur.

CONFIGURING THE EMULATOR
1. Start the emulator
?
2. Go to Settings, then Wireless controls
?
3. Tap Mobile networks
?
4. Select Access point names
?

5. Choose the selected access point and configure the following options:
- Name : Internet
- APN : Internet?
- Proxy : Fiddler’s proxy IP address (10.0.1.26 in my case.Use cmd.exe then "ipconfig" to see your IP address)?
- Port : Fiddler’s proxy IP port (8888)
- Username : <Not set> (clear it if anything is already there)?
- Password : <Not set> (clear it if anything is already there)
- MCC : 310?
- MNC : 260
Don’t play with any of the other settings!
?
6. Press MENU and then press Save
?
7. Keep going back until you’re at the home screen. I don’t know if this makes a difference, but I’m just making sure…
?
8. Try loading a Web site and you should see the traffic in Fiddler.
?
Figure: Web traffic still works, but is flowing through Fiddler.
?
?
Figure: Traffic being captured in Fiddler.
?
That should do it!

Note: You may need to disable Windows Firewall to make this work. Obviously I don’t need to tell you not to do this on a public network.
