How to capture network traffic from a specific android application.
You can also use SandroProxy.It can capture also apps flow that do not respect android os proxy settings. There is also option to create pcap files for ssl flow. One option is also that creates ssl that can be decrypted with wireshark.
Idea is to intercept http/https flow as normal proxy or transparent proxy with iptables help, store it as request/responses or pcap files and forwarded further to server.
How to determine who is making requests:When you have open socket to proxy you must match information from /proc/net/tcp or /proc/net/tcp6 to get process uid. With this you can get packagesNames. It can be more that one.
You can examine how to make custom proxy and build one from sources here:
