I wanted to use Instagram on my computer, so I decided to use an Android Virtual Device for that task.
I downloaded the Android SDK and the newest apk for instagram for my computer.
Then I created a new AVD and ran it. After it was booted, I installed the instagram apk using adb install instagram.apk.
It installed smoothly and after clicking the app, it started.
Now here's my problem: From there on nothing works.
When I try to login and I press the login button, nothing happens like there would be no internet connection.
Browsers and other apps using an internet connection work just fine, just instagram doesn't work.
How can I fix this?

Use BlueStacks Android emulator Once you've got it installed, you'll need to download the Instagram app to your PC. Fortunately, BlueStacks has out-of-the-box access to the Play Store, allowing you to install Instagram as if you were downloading it to your phone.
1. BlueStacks. It's a third-party app that lets Android users run their applications on their PC as well. BlueStacks is the best android emulator on the list to use mobile Instagram on PC.
Bluestacks Android Emulator can access and post to Instagram from your computer.
I think it has something to do that the android Emulator can't really handle a global proxy. Therefore hostnames get resolved directly to their IP which violates HTTP 1.1 standarts and the request doesn't get send properly. To fix this, it is needed to change it so the hostname gets send instead of the IP.
