Is it possible to make HTTP request from iOS / Android Application to look for the Server exactly the same as if it came from PC Browser?
So, it would be impossible for the Server to detect that it is not actually from PC but from Mobile.

I'm not sure what you are looking. #unclear , do you want to detect from what pc or mobile http request is hitting to server ? – Ajay S Mar 06 '15 at 11:47

you can try setting custom headers which mimic the headers sent from a PC – cliffroot Mar 06 '15 at 11:53

Yes, you can alter the User Agent header to make it look like the request was made by f.ex Internet Explorer.

Set the user agent on the request to other than the default to fool the server into thinking the request is coming from other than a device. One list of user agents is at http://www.useragentstring.com.
