FilterProxy 2.4.10 2015-02-21, Neutral Tao

What I think when I look at the PC page on an Android device is that there are too many advertising images! I don't want to see useless advertisement images because the bandwidth is so narrow. So I made this app.

Filter Proxy menu structure

Famous advertising sites are pre-registered in the block list, so you can block some ads even if you keep the default.

You can add URLs or domains to the Deny list.

The menu is as follows.

Basic (Settings | Log)
Filter (Deny list ｜ Allow list ｜ Log)
Redirection (List | Edit | Log)
header

Function of Filter Proxy
function	Sub menu
Basic	Settings \| Log Set the PORT number etc.
filter	Deny list ｜ Allow list ｜ Log Register a site to be denied access
redirect	List ｜ Edit ｜ Log Forced redirect to the registered site
header	Rewrite header information such as User-Agent

Basic settings of FilterProxy

A common proxy port is 8080, but FilterProxy defaults to "PORT: 8000 ".

This port number is the value set for the mobile network and Wi-Fi proxy port.

The port number can be changed to any value, but it is desirable to set it between 8000 and 9000 in order to avoid the port number whose purpose is defined by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).

It is a snapshot of FilterProxy with PORT: 8000.

Networks available on Android

There are two types of communication methods for smartphones (Android devices), but add proxy settings to the network you want to pass through FilterProxy.

Mobile network (SIM card communication)
Wifi

Mobile network example

The mobile network refers to the access point name (APN) contracted with the telecommunications carrier.

APNs of 3 domestic carriers (DOCOMO, KDDI, SoftBank) and MVNO (cheap SIM card provider) are applicable.

You can add the APN yourself, so we recommend that you add a new access point dedicated to Filter Proxy instead of editing an existing access point.

By doing so,

If you cannot connect to the Internet due to Filter Proxy, you can switch to carrier connection with one touch.

If you have a contract with Mopera U and SP mode like me and you want to pass both through FilterProxy, change each APN setting.

The following items are added to the settings.

name
APN
Proxy
port

To display the APN setting screen of an Android device, transition as follows.

Android > Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile network > Access point name > Contract provider name (mopera U etc.) > Edit access point (or create new)

For the proxy server, specify the loopback address (localhost or 127.0.0.1). By specifying this value, the Android device will refer to FilterProxy.

For the proxy port, set the PORT number used by Filter Proxy. The default value is 8000, but you can change it.

Do not use the reserved port numbers specified by IANA. Use any number between 8000 and 9000.

For the port number, please read the external link at the end of the sentence.

Setting example of mopera U
Setting items	Set value	Remark
name	mopera U 8000	Carrier name + port number and other identifiable names
APN	mopera.net	Contracted carrier network
Proxy	localhost	Or 127.0.0.1
port	8000	Port number of FilterProxy

Wi-Fi access point example

Add the value of "Setting value" in the table below for each Wi-Fi access point.

0001docomo example
Setting items	Set value	Remark
Proxy	manual	Default value: None
Proxy host name	localhost	Or 127.0.0.1
Proxy port	8000	Port number of FilterProxy
Do not use proxy	Any	Host name that bypasses FilterProxy
IP settings	DHCP	Default value: DHCP

Setting procedure (Wi-Fi)

Android > Settings > Wi-Fi > (0001docomo)

If you press and hold the access point to which you want to add proxy settings, for example 0001docomo, a dialog will appear. Tap "Change network".

Next, tap ∨ at the right end of "Detailed setting item".

Browser app

Searching for Adblock as a keyword on Google Play will result in multiple hits of browser apps with ad blocking function. (Brave etc.)

If you find this procedure difficult, let's use the browser application bundled with the ad blocking function.

Development of Adblock Plus for Android Kai has stopped, but it is possible to make it work.

Proxomitron

Proxomitron is a local proxy server software that runs on Windows.

The author, Scott R. Lemmon, passed away on May 1, 2004, so no new version will be released, but I have confirmed that it works on Windows 10.

The usage is similar to FilterProxy, and you can browse with a few ads without being detected by Adblock Killer simply by specifying Proxomitron in the browser proxy settings.
