Thanks for this discussion Bob. Based on this discussion, I have
implemented a DNS client at the application and tested it out too.
It works well.

Normally, this sort of thing is handled through DHCP or similar. I
don't know if you have access to the server providing the information
-- are you the carrier?
To change the DNS resolution policies in any way, will require root
access,

You probably are not basically able to change it to your own server.
Chances are you can connect to your internal WiFi network
and get the automatic DNS settings from dhcpd or whatever.
I can dynamically connect through my own rooter (Linux) and pass
that beyond to the internet by IP masquerading.
Then you are doing something VERY strange.
DNS is a service provided to hosts (systems, i.e. your phone) by the
network. It is not something that is under the control of the
application. Generally, a DHCP server (or the wireless carrier) will
supply you with your IP address, default router, DNS
I didn't mean that to be harsh, BTW. Knowing that an approach is out
in left field, and why, is useful information. Some of the most useful
information you can get, as a beginner, since it narrows the focus of
what you have to learn, a lot!

Bob, making a DNS query by the application is a standardized procedure of
3GPP (3rd generation partnership project). All Mobile devices need to query
a DNS server installed in the VoIP network to find the address of the server
which will process their requests. This DNS server is under the control
