Say I wanted to have the most secure Sony Xperia Z Ultra possible (without "too much" sacrifice of useability).
In the context of this thread I define security as broadly anything barring network anonymity ie. hiding your device public IP address.
So I want security from network attackers (eg. drive-by download, WiFi attacks), physical device attackers (eg. customs searching devices for IP violations ... no really, that's about to become a thing apparently, GF and/or mistresses) .
How would you do it?
Could you please use sections of
Code:
firmware
phone settings
app settings
behavior
because I want to curate the best answers from users in this post for the good of the forum.
My thoughts so far are:
Firmware:
Root is disabled
Bootloader should be locked.
^^ These I'm not sure about - see if we don't have root then we don't have iptable firewall and hosts level server blocking.
One recovery should be used
Honestly I'm not sure which ROM is more secure than another but I'm assuming the latest and greatest is more secure so that would be MM atm. No idea if Sony is more secure than another flavour of ZU Android.
Phone settings:
Developer options off
Sideload apps off
Do not connect to unknown WiFi
NFC Off by default
Bluetooth Off by default
PIN unlock required
Auto-lock ON
App settings: (this includes apps you should have/not have and their settings)
I figure every additional app that I don't use is a needless attack surface so start with no apps at all - uninstall everything. Only install what you use ... for which you need root unless the ROM is premade like this.
Firewall app (Netguard no-root Firewall, DroidWall if we have root)
Adblock (if we have root)
AV - honestly most mobile AV seems pathetic at being secure and not acting like malware (notifications, popup windows etc) but Avast at least seems to not hog resources.
-Auto update every app
User behaviour:
NEVER:
-install apps from anywhere other than Google Play. Or possibly FDroid
-let another person use your device
I'd like to hear your suggestions, critique and everything else, cheers!
So you're not gonna install from other than google play, then what ad blocker are you going to use? Where is adblocker connecting to?
You're talking about still having a lot of apps connecting through servers that you don't control.

Well if you are worried about connecting to servers that you dont control - isnt that all servers?
At which point you may as well remove all WIFI and Mobile Data capabilities and just stick to 2G

Exactly my point.
The op is a long winded question that leaves you with more questions.
Probably why there's been such a landslide of security tips here
This is the reborn version of Adblocker, which helps you block advertisements from various Ad-Network.
It can block advertisements in many aspects according to a pre-loaded-list, such as activities, views, hosts-based, webview-based, receivers and many many more.
It does not affect system hosts file, and does not conflict with it either. It also has whitelist feature so you can easily control it. You can also use it along with AdAway or other adblockers to extend its power, especially built-in app ads.
This module is being actively developed, and I will update it about every ten days. If you have any issues or want to contribute to the project, feel free to contact me via Github or XDA.
MOD EDIT
Numerous reports from users of certain devices that this module can disable things, cause erratic behaviour and other issues, have been reported.
Specifically, most of these seem to be related to users of Xiaomi's Mi-line of devices. In the case of these devices, the module can cause behaviour such as stopping the launcher and removing some options from settings, making the module difficult to remove.
Proceed with your own caution, and preferably a backup to restore if you encounter such erratic behaviours. This will also be posted in the OP of the thread.
There are varying alternatives that work well. This module has also NOT been updated at all lately, and it's recommended that users seek alternatives.
Download:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.aviraxp.adblocker.continued
Features:
- Activityies Block
- Views Block
- Hosts Block (Not affect system hosts file)
- WebView Block
- Services Block
- Receivers Block
- .............
Principle of Work:
I hook some fundamental classes and methods of Android system, check if they are included in a pre-loaded-list (maintained by me), and break the calling of these classes and methods if included. There might be some false positives so feel free to contact me.
FAQs:
- How does it work compared to AdAway and MinMinGuard?
AdAway modifies system hosts file to redirect some ad servers to local host, thus prevent from accessing them. MinMinGuard blocks some prebuilt app Ad providers from taking effect. My application have both of their features, and extends by blocking services and receivers.
- Where is the hosts' source?
Now, it covers Dan Pollock's hosts and some app specific blocking hosts. I am searching for good sources which is simple and effective. If you have some suggestions, feel free to let me know.
- Why does not it take effects to some browsers?
The reason is basically the same as unbeloved hosts. Some browsers have their own network solutions which conflict with the normal handling method. But for browsers which simply use original WebView loading method it works well.
- There are some false positives!
Contact me via Github or here. You can also use the whitelist feature. For element whitelist, just enable debug logging, find the element(activities, hosts, views...) according to a 'block success' line, and add them to the whitelist. Each element takes one line.
- I need to view ads for some reason.
Use the whitelist feature. However, some apps uses Android System WebView as an elements loader, so you should whitelist it too. But this will ramp down the power of blocking. I am working on a better whitelist feature.
- I want to donate to you for your work.
Use the PayPal donation option:https://www.paypal.me/wanghan1995315. But it will not make any difference or be a privilege for you. There is no such thing as advanced support.
- How can I contribute to you if I found something useful (hosts, Ad SDKs)?
I am working on a block list repo on Github. Feel free to open a pull request.

From my personal experience, it does not have any evident effect on battery. But to be honest, every exposed module will affect battery since the phone now has more work to do, which is implemented by the module. I will keep the battery consumption as low as possible.

Uhm what exactly is the reason I should use this. I just tested a website for adblock check, whereas adaway active lead to first pic.
Disable adblock and enable this tool and restart lead to the second one. So obviously the ad had not been blocked by this mod.
Is your mod for ads in games or how should i understand that?
Just a bit confused, sry
Awesome module
What can this xposed module/app do that THIS APP can't? Just curious, thanks!
@aviraxp thanks a ton!! Obviously does the trick especially when it comes to being redirected to a million other places then what I clicked on. In that sense, that is something that adway does not do no matter what host file/s I use as well as adguard and minminguard. There were a couple sites I just about swore off because it was impossible to do anything as far as a navigation goes but I can do as I like now thank you very much.

I guess you are using Opera, right? Opera has its own proxy solution and unfortunately it does not use the system web view, thus I cannot get it work with the same reason as UnbelovedHosts. I am still searching for more stable hooking methods.

Generally, yes. But his code only covers about 10% of this app. You can think this is a new app too.

Ah..ok, nevermind.
Just gave the module another go, still having the same issue.
I'm playing this game : Animation Throwdown the Quest for Cards, and i have minminguard installed and the game whitelisted, the game offers ads in exchange for some increased drop rates, and you have to click on the watch button for the ads to start, which in my setup works well.
When i install this module, activate, whitelist the game, reboot (exact steps), clicking the watch ads button in game does nothing, rebooting doesn't change anything.
Once i disable/remove the module and reboot i can run the ads again, haven't tried with other apps since i don't have any others with ads in them tbh.

S10 stock cleanup actions
yet another phone this year V30->Note9->6T->Mi9->S10, time to update guides. Goal is to have a clean phone after each update, and since reboot doesn't happen often, but defly happens during upgrade, i'm putting cleanup commands into a [boot] script.
Boot script
What it does:
* choose 8 categories of app removal, in the beginning of the file
* use more switch to disable some questionable/helpful stuff
* disable up to 100 apps (preferred method, ppl can reenable)
* remove usage access for google (this is the part not tested and disabling device/trust admins can not be scripted)
Tested ok on recent stock. Not much to put in script unlike on MIUI which used shady practices. Samsung not hiding processes, not persisting apps (except Payment triggers some soft brick - interesting), and not sending tcpdumps to china. Also not having privacy policy in every basic app. It's on you to accept Fourthsquare, Google and then Bixby 3rd party stuff. Well I initially sniffed network and saw some 3rd party sleezy connection to social networking IPs (nonstop monitoring by facebook etc), but that is obvious and well known, and is swiftly disabled by the script. Will see later if there's something that could be tweaked further.
Download: file attached
Installation:
- run in su terminal or add to any startup script
Which plugins to use for S10
Similarly to Mi9, collecting what i think is useful to keep on stock rooted firmware.
Magisk plugins:
* Riru - Core, Riru - Ed Exposed -- brings XPosed to Pie. Need also installer. Now i use old version 0.3 as i feel new SandHook/Yahfa bipolar releases make phone sluggish. This case is to be monitored.
* Bixby button remapper -- so in Samsung case, extra key is not released after Bixby debloat, so we first slap this plugin into phone and then customize via Xposed Edge
* libsecure_storage companion -- helps us keep the bluetooth pairings
* (optional) Universal GMS Doze (disappeared from repository?) or Sysconfig patches -- cools down GMS services. Questionable impact but i use it.
* (optional) YouTube Vanced black themed -- brings usable YouTube experience
* (impossible) QuickSwitch -- we can't have Quickstep+Hyperion (the most capable Quickstep launcher) as there's no pill but Samsong custom recents
* (untested) - FDE, LKT - in a short time, i wasn't optimizing battery. It's good out of the box(!).
XPosed plugins:
* Xposed Edge Pro - a must have and best plugin. Here, by the way, we will modify Bixby button once again, including double press and long press. Because why not
* XPrivacy - Screw the big brother. Must have. Disabling analytics, tracking, telephony, network, identification for all visible apps and all Google and Samsung apps with some exceptions.
* Firefds kit - so this is our main customization app, and enables the very important call recording, which is beutifully integrated into call history. Bye bye external apps. Also we will remove Restart action and replace with Recovery action and rename it to Restart
* afWall - Problems with this firewall and some VPN clients. Should by disabled in Xposed but we want to have this tool
* (optional) Exi for Swiftkey - you can make Swiftkey great again, GBoard is still the best, Samsung keyboard is very good, but too tall and leaves gap in fullscreen mode
Other stuff
- booting to non-root ok, impact could be lost pairings. So let's have it as a useful safe mode.
- after setup, never used Power+Bixby+VolUp. After shutdown, not needed. Rebooting with modified Restart command. Easy
- using TWRP to flash blank Samsung boot logos, to see files etc
- not using multidisabler as i'm on stock and i do want encryption, ROMs/MODs push it thou
- next monthly upgrade will be interesting, as it'll be time to verify what unwanted stuff is being reenabled
Battery saving:
- unknown effect of {LSpeed, Naptime, Servicely, FDE, LKT, Universal GMS Doze, Sysconfig patcher} in such a short time.
- not big impact by dozes (AOD, fp icon, dt2wake, raise2wake) - that's cool.
- having 1.0-1.2%/hr in home wifi standby, VPN, locationtracking, perma BT watch, and tons of widgets and apps
- not liking memory filling up by thrashware even after debloat. From 4GB free to 2GB free quickly.
someone try on this ?
Hi dogg,
seems to work on multiple apps, and has some exceptions thrown, but how can i enable apps again if i need?
thanks and regards.

do you know which process has thrown fc or exception?
many ways to reenable individually, or to roll back the script, use the undo script attached
i thought i'd debloat Device Security (which i think is the Mcaffe antivirus noone uses), but it's hooking up to app installations. So when disabled, gplay installations will freeze forever. So another memory hog has to stay in memory.
Hi dog,
I will try again I think, there were apps that I don't have already on the phone maybe.
I sure had to enable Samsung experience and contacts sync only cause I needed them.
Thank you very much.
Like the way you inspect packages and traffic.
Keep sharing your knowledge with us.
Thanks.
Thank you very much! Really helpful script, pretty much what I was looking for.

Hello sir! I'm new to all of this, but i have learned a lot by myself already, and I have researched a lot about privacy on android and how to make the phone more secure! I need some help and guidance please. I have debloated and played around with my s10 for a long time, and had to flash and root 4 times now. The first two times the AOD didn't work anymore(probably bixby related -_-), the next two times I had a soft brick because I removed payment services! I'm really annoyed as I just want to use regular phone functions and I want be as untrackable and unhackable as possible. I mostly use apps from F-DROID, almost all! I also removed google services, basically everything google is gone.
As I understand your Guide, I have to:
1. Flash/root my phone again
2. Run script in su terminal <- here I have no idea what where and how to do this.
or
1. Flash/Root my phone again
2. Install all magisk plugins
3. Install Xposed and all plugins
4. Now Run script in su terminal <- again no idea what where and how to do this.
Could you explain in which order I should proceed and how to do the scripting part? And, when I use Xprivacy, can I leave google play services on the phone for youtube vanced?(or even other nongoogle apps and feed them false data?)Right now I use NewPipe for youtube. does XMPP work?
My biggest concern is privacy, I dont want any f***ers to spy on me. Another thing, how good is LineageOS, I could buy a SDcard and I try it or sell my stupid phone!
Thank you if you could help me, I'm really annoyed by all of this, I used a normal 30 € phone for 2 years because I don't want be spied on and not forget how nice the world is without phone that knows everything, for and about me!

i keep running the script without problems for months now.
to run a script, you need a terminal - use any terminal app, like 3C Toolbox or via adb. this is too generic question.
to run it, you need root, so at least magisk must be present. you normally flash your favorite image, then magisk, in magisk you load riru & exposed plugins, then in edxposed installer you load xposed plugins like xprivacy. i run strict privacy settings on every device and this requires some work. first thing i do, is press RESTRICT button on all visible apps for these permissions: identification, network, telephony, tracking, analytics, then calendars, call log, contacts, location and messages. Then i go throught individual apps and deselect neccessary permisions for some apps. on the left menu, i set 'restrict new apps'. this way i can control non-geeky users phone who install any app without thinking and accept all default choices without any hesitation. It's very hard for them to fight XPrivacy thou - they don't understand it luckily. unlike personal computers, phones are great source of snitching, as you have so much data available to the aggressive companies like SIM details (=directly identify your person via Telco), IP (=directly identify you via ISP), web services where you provided real name and phone number (to "recover account" blabla, real meaning is to identify you), tracking and analytics (to study your behaviour and share your internet presence via a token between companies). All this needs to be cloaked and more: browser should be full of privacy plugins, ad killers, fingerprinting killers, webrtc killers etc etc. VPN set, and firewall set. I also use Changer xposed plugin to cloak extra items not covered by XPrivacy.
I have zero ads in any apps. Zero suggestions by ecommerces. Getting dummy search hits without relevance. Always a blank user to each web or app. Email on the best privacy provider, with zero knowledge encryption, this and any web services paid via bishuffled bitcoin bought in person (Coinbase? really? send ID? seriously people do this?). IP is cloaked via trustful service, in case of need to express opinion on the internet (which i've given up to) in todays politically correct era, use also Tor and Psiphon. No phone numbers, IMEIs, IMSIs etc etc provided. No real names ever entered anywhere. I can have great privacy with commercial tools, and don't need to use Snowden type of blank OS. But it's difficult to set up, it takes hours and some tweaking later. I just find mobile encryption too weak, on PC an intruder (govt) needs to: enter BIOS password, enter TCG-OPAL password, enter bitlocker password, enter Windows password, enter fingerprint to USB flash drive with keys to data drive, unlock bitlocker of the same USB, then unlock data drive -- it's just 20 seconds of extra work once per day. Mobile phone: password and FBE and sensitive app locking. Don't use fingerprints (they belong to govt) or facelock (too lame). Or use fingerprints with lockdown feature (use AI button to map this action with XPosed Edge plugin), and lock it deeply when going to customs or similar checkpoint. Your data and thougts are yours and noone elses.
Yeah install instructions man.. su in terminal and then what ???

I opened the script file and picked the features i wanted to disable by manually typing the commands. Standard procedure should be starting terminal as su
Code:
chmod 777 filename.sh
and after that
Code:
./filename.sh
You should be in your file directory of course. You can get there by typing
Code:
cd /your/file/path
Will that work on Snapdragon s10?
i'm running this for 8 months now after each boot. And i didn't update firmware as the rooting process was so exhausting. Now i'm going through the horror again, hoping to keep the encryption, therefore strictly without a custom ROM.
Script should work on Snapdragon, it's not related to the root process.
easier way to run the .sh file:
1. su
2. cd /storage/emulated/0
3. sh S10_cleanup.sh
