apollgo

An Android app for hosting a variety of proxy servers, proxy chains, and port forwarding (via glider and hermes).

Install

Android

Note: You may be able to download, extract, and install the APK all from the android device without needing a PC to set things up. This is untested.

1. Download and extract the latest release on a PC.
2. Install adb
3. Run $ adb install apollgo.apk with an android device connected
4. (Optional) While the app is running use $ adb forward tcp:8888 tcp:8888 and you'll be able to access the app's settings by visiting http://localhost:8888

Use Cases

Simple (SOCKS5, HTTP, HTTPS) Proxy Server

1. Launch the app and go to http://localhost:8888 in your device's browser
2. Go to the glider tab
3. Add a listener on mixed://:1080, then Apply, and restart the app.
4. Forward the proxy server to a PC using $ adb forward tcp:1080 tcp:1080 (ensure device is plugged in via USB)
5. Update your PC's proxy settings to use 127.0.0.1:1080 for all traffic.

Android Hotspot (Without Using Hotspot Mode 🔮)

1. Disable WiFi on your device as well as any auto-enable-WiFi settings
2. Launch the app and go to http://localhost:8888 in your device's browser
3. Go to the glider tab
4. Add mixed://:1080, then Apply, and restart the app.
5. Start adb as $ adb -a nodaemon server start (ensure device is plugged in via USB)
6. Forward the proxy server to a PC using $ adb forward tcp:1080 tcp:1080
7. Update your PC's proxy settings to use 127.0.0.1:1080 for all traffic.
8. (Optional) Connect your PC to a router (via WiFi or preferably ethernet) and have other devices use <local PC ip>:1080 (eg 192.168.1.12:1080) as a proxy server.

Multi-Android Hotspot

Use several cellular-enabled devices as a single hotspot by load balancing proxy traffic between them.

1. Follow steps 1-5 from above on every device (every device should be connected via USB to the same PC).
2. Run $ adb forward tcp:1080 tcp:1080, $ adb forward tcp:2080 tcp:1080, ... for each device.
3. Download the latest glider release (this will have to be done while the PC has an internet connection)
4. $ glider -listen mixed://:1180 -forward socks5://127.0.0.1:1080 -forward socks5://127.0.0.1:2080 -checkwebsite www.google.com -checkinterval 300 -strategy rr -verbose (include a -forward socks5://127.0.0.1:<port> for every connected device)
5. Update your PC's proxy settings to use 127.0.0.1:1180 for all traffic.
6. (Optional) Connect your PC to a router (via WiFi or preferably ethernet) and have other devices use <local PC ip>:1180 (eg 192.168.1.12:1180) as a proxy server.

Port Forwarding An IP Camera App

1. Setup a hermes server on eg DigitalOcean.
2. Install and start an IP Camera app, ensure it's running an HTTP webserver by visiting http://localhost:8080 (or whatever port its on)
3. Launch the apollgo and go to http://localhost:8888 in your device's browser
4. Go to the glider tab
5. Enable hermes and fill in fields to match your hermes server setup. Set forwards to 8080/8080 (forwarding local port 8080 to <hermes server ip>:8080). Apply and restart app.
6. Visit <hermes server ip>:8080 anywhere to access the IP Camera stream

Building

1. $ cd react && yarn build:assets
2. $ gomobile build -target=android -o apollgo.apk ./cmd/android

Alternatives

If apollgo doesn't work for you, Every Proxy is a closed-source alternative that works pretty well for SOCKS/HTTPS proxying.
