Firstly I added issue on github, but I think it’s not an issue, but my misconfiguration, so I closed issue and came here.

I try to setup mitmpoxy in transparent mode but mitmproxy dosen’t see any connections.  
Regular mode runs well.  
Here is full description of problem:

**EDIT: android version 6.0.1**  
Downgraded my nexus 5 for android **6.0.1**  
Mitmproxy in transparent mode works, but now I can’t install certificate from mitm.it  
Error is “Couldn’t install because certificate file couldn’t be read”

I installed certificate manually in android device settings but in mitmproxy transparent mode I have errors “The client may not trust proxy’s certificate”. So I guess certificate isn’t installed well.

Certificate works, problem was certificate pinning.
