Bedrock Proxy

It's probably better to use a DNS method for consoles as this app has issues with battery management on certain devices.

I've repeatedly attempted at finding a method that allows an android phone to let console players join servers, but networking is heavily limited on android, and battery management issues can be circumvented but varies accross manufacturer's and requires the user to manually edit their devices settings.

An Android application that serves as a wrapper for jhead/phantom. It's supposed to allow you to have your consoles join a server through LAN Games.

Features

• Provides a simple UI (Material 3) to start and stop the phantom proxy service.
• Runs phantom as a foreground service to ensure it keeps running in the background.
• Displays logs from the running phantom process within the app.
• Handles necessary permissions and manages the phantom binary lifecycle.
• Auto Dark/light Theme.
• Works for Bedrock Release AND Preview (Beta) editions.

How-To

1. Download the latest build from here or you can build yourself by following this.

2. Install the app to your phone.

3. Now you can use the Phantom app as you would on a desktop computer. Here is an example command to enter into the app: -server lax.mcbr.cubed.host:19132. If you need help with the arguments to enter see the Phantom Repository here.

Building

1. You need to download the latest Phantom Binary from jhead's repo. Here.

2. Make sure its the phantom-linux-arm8 and the phantom-linux-arm7 that you are downloading.

3. Then from the root directory of this project go to app/src/main/jniLibs folder (the jniLibs folder may or may not be there so you might have to create it).

4. Now you create two folder, arm64-v8a and armeabi-v7a.

5. The phantom-linux-arm8 file from earlier needs to go into arm64-v8a and the phantom-linux-arm7 file needs to go into armeabi-v8a.

6. Once done you need to rename both binaries into libphantom.so.

7. Then you can build with Android Studio or with this command: ./gradlew assembleDebug.
