Need help with Socks5
 

I am having a very frustrating issue with my DNS leaking on Android Emulator Nox.

I have residential socks and the software has an option to force all network traffic thru socks. When I check my host machine on whoer - I get 100% anon.

When I launch Nox - whoer shows a conflict. My IP and location is spoofed according to my Socks but my DNS is leaking. It is showing my VPN location and I have a 55% anon score.

I tried other emulators like Memu, Bluestacks and Genymotion. All leak my DNS (whether its my VPN on host machine OR my actual DNS if I turn off VPN) so I have a feeling that it's the proxifier software.

I went into Name Resolution and checked "Resolve hostnames thru proxy"
I played around with "Detect DNS settings automatically " & "Try to resolve via local DNS service first " but no combination fixes my issue.

Please help me fix this.

Try to find a DNS server which match the proxy's country and set that IP directly in the Android OS settings (I dont have experience with this its just an idea). The problem probably is that Proxifier cannot catch the DNS requests made by the emulator app.

I tried using ProxyDroid within the emulator and portforwarded a residental socks but when I punch in my host ip and port, I get no internet connection.

I will try setting the DNS server manually. when I go to whoer on my host machine, I can see sevelar DNS servers listed - can I punch in one of those in the emulator?

I have not tried this but there's an android app called Postern.

Android emulators are so bad, you should just give them up.
