Okay, I think I have a solution that can work for me :) I used the
https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION.html callback and I'm
reading the der file and adding it to the store, similar to the example in
the docs. It's something like this:

I have that permission for my app, but looks like the problem is that now
on Android you can only access the files that you created (

But I don't know beforehand the name of that file, since the user could use
different proxies (it's not always a certificate for Charles). Although I

and of course the code i saw in libcurl was for loading the client cert and
there it wasn't the file extension that where used but the value of

openssl can find it via the hash but then that is just a link to the actual

the main issue for libcurl is that openssl (of which boringssl is a fork)
only allows CA certificates in PEM format to be loaded, other types of
certificates can be in PEM or DER but CA must be in PEM. So it's really
strange (and dumb to be frank) of Google to force the CA certs to be

Yes, user-installed certificates are stored in the
"/data/misc/user/0/cacerts-added" directory while system certificates are
stored in "/system/etc/security/cacerts" directory. Th
well if the plan is to always use this particular proxy then you can always
bundle the root cert and point libcurl to it as a local file. AFAIK the ssl
callback functions of libcurl could be used to load the cert in DER format
and supply it via memory buffer to the ssl library but that requires

As far as I understand, I installed it as a new root certificate, but I'm
not sure. I went to "Settings -> Passwords & security -> Privacy ->
Encryption and Credentials -> Install a certificate ->
but did you install it as a new root certificate or as a client certificate
on the android device? Can you access other https locations? If so then the
other root ca:s works on the device for some reason.

I have already installed the certificate on the device. I can see it in the
"/data/misc/user/0/cacerts-added" directory.
