Hi,

I have a problem on Android phone Samsung GT-I9500.
Samsumg GT-I9500 sends DNS requests to DNS server address obtained via DHCP. But it ignores setup changes in setprorp 1 and setprorp 2.

do it:
Code:
adb shell
# setprop net.dns1 <ip1>
# setprop net.dns2 <ip2>

How to change DNS server?
How to add DNS server?

Info:
Code:
shell@ja3g:/ # getprop |grep dns
getprop |grep dns
[dhcp.wlan0.dns1]: [192.168.1.1]
[dhcp.wlan0.dns2]: []
[dhcp.wlan0.dns3]: []
[dhcp.wlan0.dns4]: []
[net.change]: [net.dns1]
[net.dns.search]: []
[net.dns1]: [192.168.1.1]

shell@ja3g:/ # setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8

shell@ja3g:/ # setprop net.dns2 4.4.4.4
setprop net.dns2 4.4.4.4

shell@ja3g:/ # setprop dhcp.wlan0.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop dhcp.wlan0.dns1 8.8.8.8

root@ja3g:/ # getprop |grep dns
getprop |grep dns
[dhcp.wlan0.dns1]: [8.8.8.8]
[dhcp.wlan0.dns2]: []
[dhcp.wlan0.dns3]: []
[dhcp.wlan0.dns4]: []
[net.change]: [net.dns2]
[net.dns.search]: []
[net.dns1]: [8.8.8.8]
[net.dns2]: [4.4.4.4]

shell@ja3g:/ # ping google.com

shell@ja3g:/ # tcpdump -ns0 -i wlan0 'port 53'

I have not found DNS.
In advanced options only:
- Proxy settings
- IP setings

Choose static ip settings and you will see the option to change dns.
I am attaching a screenshot for you:)

Feel free to hit the thanks button :)

Change your DNS servers in Android.
You can change the same thing on your rooted Android Device.

With root privileges and a terminal app or (adb shell):
root@:/ # ndc resolver flushif -- flushes old DNS servers
root@:/ # ndc resolver flushdefaultif -- flush resolver
root@:/ # ndc resolver setifdns <iface> <domains> <dns1> <dns2> ... -- Add the new servers
root@:/ # ndc resolver setdefaultif -- Set as the default device
