I have a rooted Galaxy Mega I recently bough, running stock ROM 4.22. I am upgrading from an original Galaxy Tab 7 (rooted and still running Gingerbread.. working like new).
Like on my Galaxy Tab 7 I installed Adaway on the Mega, but, seems I cant get of any ads at all. All apps display ads even the Mega is rooted and Adaway properly configured. Am I do anything wrong or need special configuration or is there a knows inssue about removing ads with this phone? Any other app that works or workaround for the problem?
Aside from this problem, the Mega is a great phone! Extremely happy
Thanks in advance for sharing any advice and input of this
im having the same problem
its probably the 'webserver' doesnt stay on, the moment you exit adaway its turns off by itself
Add away is working perfectly here. Maybe reinstall and try from the start

Positively does not work. Installedl and uninstalled several times the app (and several versions) and never works.
.. in fact I hear with stock Samsung ROMs & Android 4.22 there are issues with Busy Box that can cause this.. but I also updated my Busy Box and no fix..

My Rom is based on stock and has root and busybox and is adfree, Can you just edit the hosts file?
View attachment hosts.zip This is the actual text file, just rename without .zip and copy to /system/etc, making a backup first.
This is a few days old but one I restored and then updated, I am hoping you can do the same.

OK so goes like this:
Replaced your hosts file. With WIFI, no ads. Using 3G, ads everywhere still. So crazy.. I don't understand..
I have a rooted stock Samsung Rom with AdAway 2.6 installed and have no ads at all. On My Note 2 however, I have found that AdAway doesn't work if I have flashed Crossbreeder.

It helps them monitor your usage/histroy. Reduces the amount of data they use, doesn't (usually) do anything for you. Glad it's fixed.

In a way yes, but not completely. You are blocking sites and using a proxy bypasses the site address as everything is server from the proxy IP address.
Adaway webserver would remove the ads and then show the page complete, a bit like Opera Mini.

+1 for ad-free...BUT with the release of the paid versions of Angry Birds it's not as important as it was to me, but still great for being able to put the Flash add-on to "always on" and not have to worry about Flash ads in the browser.

Very true, although I kinda hate killing ads in free apps. I prefer paid versions so we can be ad free and support the developer at the same time.. Angry Birds was an exception because I always get distracted by the darn ads being in the same area as the target.

You also need to be sure you are using the latest version of busybox for TitaniumBackUP....select the problems tab. Should give you the option to update busybox.

Ad blocking will generally cause this issue. If you have ad blocking on your phone try disabling it or adding the ad urls to the whitelist of your ad blocking software.
I am on an ICS rom and running AdAway with "ads.hulu.com" and "p.hulu.com" added under "Your Lists", the "WHITE" tab...

Heya guys,
I had 4.1.1 till few weeks ago, after I updated to 4.1.2 Wanamlite ALL adblockers I try don't work... I used Adfree before and had 0 Ads in apps.
Now, no matter which one I try I have ads in there.
I had to install another version of adfree which removes only a few ads but not all, I tried adblock plus, adaways, and adfree....
My phone's rooted as usual, i let them acces internet via droidwall...
What is the problem ?
Is there a general change in 4.1.2 hich prevents some ads from being blocked ?
Thanks in advance.
Gram
All should work. What if you turn off droidwall?
Adaway worked for me on 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 leak. I then moved to 4.2.2 aosp and it still works

Heya,
Droidwalls logs are empty, i set things up a year ago so doirdwall isn't it. plus adfree and all the others adblocker apps always have all permissions.
So should I simply try another version other than 4.1.2 or why the hell isn't it working ? *sigh*
If you don't know why its not working, how can you rule out any cause?
Logic says remove as many variables as possible. I asked what happens without droid wall. Did you try it? I ask because you didn't satisfactorily answer the question.
Please rule out droidwall first. Then we talk more.

It can't block all adds, only those coming from external add networks, not those natively brought through the application's server (mostly games I guess).

Yeah its the same for me.
I am using the same aps I used to use before 4.1.2, I was using the older version of adfree which was working perfectly. No inapp ads nothing.
Now i had to update the adfree to another version and the inapp ads are not blocked anymore. I mean those built in.... because those aps cannot acces the internet anyways.
The got blocked before I am just wondering why not anymore...

Thanks. If this is from /system/etc (or /etc) then it rules out the apps. Your hosts file has 25000+ entries (more than mine by about 4000)... so it would definitely appear to be a rom issue. The app is doing its job by writing to the hosts file.
I trust it has standard /system permissions?

Hey, yeah prolly... It has root permissions. I was using the older wanam rom, it was working pretty nice....
What I am asking myself is: some ads seem to be built into the ap itself, since i don't allow any of the games or apps i use to connect to the internet. So ofc some ads are always there right ?
But then I realize, hey I was using all those aps before and none of those ads were there before...
What u think, should I change the rom ? can u recommend a good one ? I was pretty happy with wanam tbh...
cheers.

If you can tell me a few games to test for you I can let you know....
Since the hosts file simply blocks web hosts connecting in from the internet, it can't touch ads that are embedded in the game that works when the internet is off. So yeah, anything that still works with no internet cannot be blocked.
When I use touchwiz, I prefer wanam

Alright cool...
First game: Third blade
In this game if u start a level, u get a small banner ad at the center top of the screen. Now, the game is blocked and cannot access internet. yet It has this ad. Here comes the twist though, When I had my sgs+ back 2 years ago, and had adblocker i didnt have that banner ad, so whats deal with that nowadays ? Simply different version ? (upgrade with integrated ads) ?? The sgs+ had 2.3.3 or so...
Second game: Jewels saga
If i start the game now I get this stupid fullscreen ad which I have to press away. I used the same game in 4.1.1 with wanamlite and adaway and dindn't have this ad, so how come after the upgrade, under the same circumstances this ad now appears ? Please check if u get the fullscreen ad at the start..
I deleted a **** load of games so I only have these 2a atm...
Thanks alot.

The problem is that adaway or Adfree dont seem to keep their info on reboot so the ad re-appears... a pain
no on any of my 6 set ups. adaway always keeps its settings. it actually writes over the host file. maybe you're doing a symlink instead into a temp directory?

How do I add Google ads to safelist on AdAway? I mean I don't wanna block Google adds that show up when doing a Google search.
I use Adaway at my rooted Note 3.
The problem is that Facebook and Messenger doesn't work.
If I replace the new Hosts with the original and freeze adaway, the two apps work.
So, is it possible to use adaway but remove some hosts, an Facebook, Messenger still work?
Please, if somebody knows the hosts to remove….

Sorry Guys I uploaded the wrong apk check now
as for kitkat I am doing tests for compatibility
Cool, works now. Nice work, wyk02!
I hid Xposed and SuperSU for Snapchat and logins are still blocked.
I'm pretty sure most people are gonna try that, so I'll save you five minutes.

Hii Thanks alot, this is my first xposed module, I used it to hide Supersu app from games,
It should be working for snapchat and supersu, but maybe there is check that is not on your side ?

Snapcheck checks for Xposed (because of Snapprefs), but I guess they don't check for the app. Just noting that for anyone who tries it; saving time.
Hy there,
This module caused a heavy lag/freeze and bootloop for me. Managed start the phone again (idk how), and removed it from xposed, now everything's working fine.
Phone: Sony Z2 (D6503) with pre-rooted android MM (6.01)
This works perfect to hide @Shaftamle keyboards from play services so they don't fc. Thank you!!
Did it works for hide Snapchat?
Android Pay would be another nice app if this would work using this method. I know I've tried others like root cloak etc. and other methods but they don't work unfortunately.

Hello,
Sadly it's still laggy, and still causes bootlop.
I try to post a log from mega (file was too big for pastebin, and I don't know how to upload it here yet)
mega.nz/#!EYcklQBK!thsSDn0V7CS4lykUTdFr6gP9g27OOjQQsAYGW2Wtx8k
And ofc I don't have enough posts
Tried hiding Messenger from Facebook and it worked lol.
Tested on Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 TW 4.4.2
Just a little suggestion ....
Add a little note for example; color the row of the app that's been hidden from any other app so you know which apps are hidden just by opening the main apps menu.

If i can suggest one more thing [emoji5] ...
When you select an app from the main menu, then get into the 2nd internal one; remove the auto focus on the text box so that you dont have to see the keyboard everytime.
And show a toast message to say for example "the app is hidden now" when you press the button.
Thanks so much for your work.

upload new versions if you'd like to check again. it fixed a bootloop on my device which happened after a system crash (some weird case)
turns out it was class cast exception on a return argument, and the caller turned out to be system app.

Thanks was looking for this but didn't understand,
So this didn't work to hide closed from Snapchat?
Thanks.
Would this work to hide root from Android Pay?
