Default ads

Ok this is question specifically for the A7. I had games and apps before the Dexter mod and they didn't have ads in them. Since I modded the A7 to get google market I am getting ads in every app. These apps are the same apps I had before the Dexter mod, and some of them I did not get from google market (appoke,getjar,and appbrain). What is causing the ads is it google market or the Dexter mod?

Appbrain wouldnt work till after i got the dexter mod.

Does anyone know of a app that will block them? The ads also show up whether I have my wi-fi on or not.

Thanks for the suggestion of the ap to block the adware im getting, but it seems I need to clarify things.

I did not have AD before I did the dexter mod 1.3, but now I have them. The apps I had I did not get from google market and they were ad free. After doing the Dex mod I redownloaded the same aps that I had before from the same place. (appoke and getjar) Now they had ads in them.


Is the dex mod putting ad in the aps or is it because by default having Google market on your device the reason I am getting the ads in all the apps?

Thats just what happens with free apps, they are ad supported. Sometimes they load, sometimes they don't, I see that in games like Angry Birds all the time.

IDK added Dexter modified hosts-files in his MOD, but stock ROM doesn't have any blocking rules. So every ads are there.

To eliminate ads you should use ADFree
https://market.android.com/details?i...android.adfree

But it is not good idea cause app-developers would not get extra money and would not have motivation to develop.

I warn you

would love to get better explanation of where ads are coming from.

Is it just default that if you have google market you get ads or is it the dexter mod.

I didnt have ads before i downloaded the dexter mod to get google market. the apps I have are the same ones i had before the dexter mod and they had no ads in them, also I didnt get the aps i had from google market.

thanks for replies and yes i did install the ADfree ap.

yes it works but in some of the aps it blocks ads in it shows a place holder where the AD was, stating it cant load the ad(not in those exact words).

Yeah. It could not enter into app and cut ads inside))
It blocks only common adware links.

Its not Android Market or Dexter. Free apps tend to be ad supported. I find that if the ads bother me, I turn off wifi and of solves the problem except for a few that seem to cache their ads.
