How to Set Up a Mobile Proxy on Android Using Super Proxy

This guide configures the Super Proxy Android app to route your phone's traffic through a dedicated SentraCell mobile proxy: one real US carrier device assigned to your customer account, with unlimited bandwidth.

Setting up a mobile proxy on Android is straightforward once you have the right app. In this guide we are using Super Proxy, a clean, reliable proxy client available on the Google Play Store that routes your traffic through any SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy system-wide. We will walk through the full setup from download to verification in under 5 minutes.

What You'll Need

• •Super Proxy, download from the Google Play Store, or use the APK if you prefer
• •Server, your proxy server address from your SentraCell DM
• •Port, your proxy port number
• •Username and Password, your proxy authentication credentials

Step-by-Step Setup

• 1
  Download Super Proxy from the Google Play Store. Search "Super Proxy" and install it. You can also use the APK directly if the Play Store isn't available on your device.
• 2
  Open the app and tap Add Proxy at the bottom to create a new proxy. If the app shows a prompt first, turn on the option it asks for and tap OK.
• 3
  Name your proxy, you can call it anything. Something like "SentraCell" works fine to keep things organized.
• 4
  Get your login details. Open the SentraCell bot on Telegram, pick your proxy and tap View split format. That shows the server, port, username and password on separate lines, so you can copy each one on its own.
• 5
  Enter the server address, paste your proxy server into the Server field.
• 6
  Enter the port, paste your port number into the Port field.
• 7
  Set the authentication method to Username/Password. Tap the Authentication Method dropdown, pick Username/Password, then paste your username and password. Some providers only use IP whitelisting instead of a login, but SentraCell proxies use a username and password.
• 8
  Set DNS resolution to Cloudflare, in the DNS Resolution field, select Cloudflare. This tends to work more reliably with mobile proxies.
• 9
  Tap Save then tap Start. Once the timer appears and is running, your proxy is active.
• 10
  Check that it works. Open Chrome and search what is my IP (or go to browserleaks.com/ip). The location should match your proxy, for example California for a Sacramento proxy, and the IP should be the same one the SentraCell bot shows for your proxy. Refresh once to be sure.

How to Rotate Your IP

To get a fresh IP address without stopping the proxy, just open Telegram, go to the SentraCell bot, and tap Rotate IP. The device goes into airplane mode, reconnects to the carrier, and comes back with a new IP in around 10 seconds. You do not need to touch Super Proxy at all, it stays connected and picks up the new IP automatically.

Troubleshooting

If the IP checker still shows your real location after starting the proxy, double check that the server address and port are entered exactly as they appear in your credentials DM. A single character off will prevent the connection. Also make sure you selected SOCKS5 as the proxy type and that Username/Password authentication is enabled.

If the app connects but traffic is slow, try switching the DNS resolution setting to Cloudflare if it is not already set, this alone can make a noticeable difference in speed and reliability.
