How to browse localhost on Android device?

Question

I try to browse localhost on my HTC Magic. I have connected my device with Eclipse via USB. When browsing http://10.0.2.2 I get "Page not available". I remember, some days ago it worked.

But on the emulator I am able to browse localhost

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Easier way to check is in browser of emulator type 10.0.2.2 instead of localhost.

Reference for localhost

Hope that helps! :)
