Is there a list of host sources?

Have you tried YouTube adaway? That's what I use to get rid of those adds. It's available in the exposed modules

Does anyone think it's possible that adaway would cause issues with beyond pod podcasts? I think it's unrelated to this, but thought I'd ask. I have no sound on downloaded podcasts

After yesterday's update, I can now see images again from the Amazon App store. I did not make any changes to my whitelist as others have mentioned they had.
Does anyone notice that the hostfile size has reduced by almost half? I have up to 12 hostfile providers, along with my own legacy list of blacklist and redirect list (imported from last used adfree hostile). Till last month the updated hostfile after auto-update used to be approximately 3.5 mb, but now it has shrunk to 1.75 or so. On another device, without the blacklist, ads appear at random within apps and on some webpages....is some site admin bowing under Google's pressure? Anyone else noticing this?
Dead Cookies leave no trails...
I have a very strange behavior on my phone.
HTC One (m7) with CyanogenMod 11.0
Installed ist the AdAway v2.8.1 d4rken mod
I start AdAway, the files are downloaded and the hosts file is created. But then I see the error, that the hosts file cannot be copied. This is the known error, that should be solved with the d4rken mod.
Strange is, that the hosts file is copied despite the error message. When I close AdAway and start it again, it says that my hosts file is current and AdAway is activated. And the Ads are blocked.
I have been using ADaway as my ad blocking apk since I first got my current device (ZTE v967s rooted) and I have been really satisfied by the end result
I recently started using Go SMS Pro as my main sms apk and I have sadly realised that adaway can't block ads from it (in app ads and ads that pop up after closing apk)
Anyone else facing the same?
Is there a way to work arround those annoying adds by go sms pro?
Most probably an android problem. Maybe open an issue report on GitHub.I use Adaway non-rooted via VPN on a xiaomi redmi note 13 pro+. It works fine, except that it does not automatically start after a reboot. Any ideas why not?
I did:
Ever since I set the Always-on VPN, I get a message after reboot (before providing the unlock code for the first time): "Disconnected from always-on VPN — Change network or VPN settings".
- Selected "Background autostart"
- Set Battery saver to "No restrictions"
- Set Always-on VPN in preferences
- Set Block connections without VPN" in preferences
Adaway is supposed to start automatically after a reboot, right?
Thanks for helping!
It's always blatently (NEVER automatically )asks me on a data clear, just tried it and gotI have been using Adaway, both rooted and non root versions, for several years. My phone broke last week, and while I wait for a replacement I am using a borrowed stock Oneplus 9. It is running Android 14, with no other VPN apps. When I install Adaway, it installs the root version, so I get a systemless host error. It used to install the correct version automatically, is there any way to force it to install the non root version?
GitLab, like GitHub do not set LastModified HTTP header so update status is not supported... yet!Is anyone using a hosts list hosted on Gitlab? It keeps showing "Unknown update status".
It works well here. I failed to reproduce as I change the HTTP client library and how I use it.Hmm, not working for me for this URL, v4.1.0 shows something like not updated in -360 days (some large negative value). Can you please see if you can reproduce?

Not really. You could choose a lot of different mode.All the F-Droid apps I know of have manual push updates to the store.
Isn't automatic build basically for nightlies?
Thank you so much! :highfive:I exist still... do you know what i have to do to transfer ownership? if i edit project it doesn't let me change the primary author so i assume i have to PM some higher up to make this happen?
Thank you too!
