My isp has started doing something weird. All websites like google, youtube, this forum would try to load http version and fail, on refreshing https page will open properly, I already had https everywhere extension installed in my browser so I changed https extension settings to block any non-https request and suddenly all websites started working properly.

As most websites now support https so blocking non-https sites is not a major problem and for such websites I can use other browser.

is there any app or any fix that can work like https everywhere extensions for all connections from android mobile.
 
Interesting use-case. Unfortunately, I can't find an easy way to do this. Basically, it needs to be done in the firewall. Firewall is a low level item in a kernel or phone. So, the non-root version of a firewall couldn't help much. If you can root your device, there are a couple of (paid) options available as can been seen at firewall - Google Play .

this shit started just last week :confused:

I don't think lco even know how to do this, may be some new customer is doing this (easy with publicly available tools but usually this breaks the internet ) or my isp started some over optimization to intercept traffic and serve content from cache.
 
Now my problem is how to explain this to lco because internet is working (works on refreshing page) and speedtest shows full speed.

Not many alternatives available.
