[APP] AdFree by Bigtincan - adblock app

no14me · Apr 4, 2013

After flash ROM without backup, I searched on Google Play but I can't find any adblock app.
So i search and know that some days ago all "Ad Blocking" apps were removed from Play Store. It's too bad, because with small app, i always download the new one after flash.
AND WITH SOME APP, I DON'T WANT DOWNLOAD FROM ANOTHER SOURCE EXCEPT GOOGLE PLAY.
Luckily, i opened the sdcard and recognized that I backed up this app the day before flash. so I have backed up the best ad blocking app for me: AdFree from bigtincan.
I attached version 0.8.47-the last version in the Google Play before remotion. I exported it by AppInstaller, so you can install it normal

Also, you can get the last version here (found this in XDA ): http://adfree.bigtincan.com/adfree.apk
UPDATE: ADFREE 0.8.47 WAS OUT OF DATE. EVERYBODY CAN DOWNLOAD NEW VERSION VIA THIS DIRECT LINK: http://adfree.bigtincan.com/adfree.apk
Or you will get Out of date notification when open apps
*EDIT: 19-Jan-2015: attached newest version (dont know if anybody still using this like me. haha)

I would suggest downloading any adblockers from their developers site. The new versions include an updater that works outside of the play store.

I'm sorry it came off like that but iI was just trying to be helpful. As you can surely see I'm still a fairly fresh face around here. Feel free to call me a troll if you desire, I'm not here to start any forum battles.

I hear you. It's just that you linked to a completely different app from a different developer. Forgive the troll comment.

Totally understood. I'll be sure to be more mindful about what I'm posting. Don't worry about the comment, we're good.

I installed AdFree about six months ago when still available on PlayStore. Is the updated version needed?

An even newer version can be obtained directly from the site: http://adfree.bigtincan.com/
Certainly, there would be a need for the updation

I don't know if this is even the same app. I question it due to it having a different Icon, new website, no info, and BigTinCan turning into a new company and dumping AdFree from what I saw.

Works exactly the same... An icon being updated is hardly strange, especially considering how the app was removed from the market.

I just installed it and you are right. I was just a little worried about it. I know an icon change doesn't mean much but I am very cautious with apps that ask for root.

Also as you may have noticed, the download link I mentioned isn't publicized on their home page. It's for those who find it, I would assume

interesting

I tried to register and got this.

"Your Email Mail server responded with: 220-We do not authorize the use of this system to transport unsolicited, " (note comma at end)

as well I downloaded the latest version from the page, install it, says installed fine and when it goes to update the local host it tells me "this copy of AdFree is too old, please update to a newer version".

I downloaded the updated version after receiving the same out of date error. According to the adfree.apk manifest downloaded, the latest version is 0.8.64

I still get the same error. I then go over to BigTinCan's main site. From the looks of it, it got me thinking "I wonder if they have abandoned the adfree app". Anyways, I just downloaded and installed the adaway apps and I seems to be doing its job. Sweeeeeet!

...too old???

Hello *,

since two days, I am trying to get adfree running (it used to be smooth and easy). However, now I always get this warning: "...too old..."
How is that possible? I am using the latest version offered by the web site. (Unfortunately, cannot provide the version number...)

Could somebody please give me a hand?

Thank you kindly!

Regards,

hssuhle
