[APP][ROOT/NONROOT][OFFICIAL] AdAway v6.1.0

[PerfectSlayer]

Hi all,

Long time no see release! Months passed so fast: Got a new job, a better health, and it's now 8 months since the last release...
Truth is, this update required time and energy to upgrade the app to Android 13. But now, you should have things like adaptive icon and notification runtime permission, in addition to the usual library and build tool upgrades

Changelog:

• Add adaptive launcher icon
• Add POST_NOTIFCATIONS runtime permission support
• Improve settings UI
• Update target SDK to Android 13
• Update libsu
• Update mongoose web server
• Update AndroidX libraries
• Update third party libraries
• Update Android gradle plugin
• Update NDK

Download:

AdAway 6.1.0

whether the current Material You icon can be changed to a filled-type icon?

The current icon is inconsistent with the MY icon style of other applications such as google, twitter

I'm encountering an strange error, I installed AdAway on my new nonroot phone (samsung m53), I decided that I'd rather patch the apps I use than to use the VPN option, the thing is, after I uninstalled it I couldnt connect to any wifi, I tried to install it again and my wifi started working again, so, for now, I let the app "on pause" and wifi works... Also, strangely, on safe mode I couldnt connect to wifi either.
Thanks for the replies!

Good afternoon @PerfectSlayer @ipdev @zgfg

I happen to be assisting in the translation of Adaway. And I came across some strings that have an exclamation mark inside a triangle. That is a warning sign.

I look at it and between the source string and the translation there was. There is variation in the numbers.

I made some suggestions just in case I'm wrong about what is wrong. Because it is strange to me that these strings were already old and were unmodified.

I upload some screenshots so you can see better what I mean and make sure if I'm wrong or not:

A hug

Hey guys, have the latest magisk canary build sis systemless hosts enabled. i updated to the new adaway apk and I cant get past the syncing screen "Failed to sync". any suggestions?

Good afternoon @docluv01

Try removing Magisk Canary and try normal Magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/tag/v25.2

thanks for quick reply

Unfortunately, when I try rolling back to that version, the magisk app force closes a LOT.

The safest way will be to fully uninstall Magisk and to install Stable v25.2 or Canary v25206 from scratch

Unfortunately, support for systemless modules is broken in the latest Canary v25210 (even partially broken since v25207) - it was warned here few weeks ago when Canary v25210 was released

---

Only if you have your boot.img patched by Stable v25.2 or Canary v25206 (you could also try with v25209) then you can cut (and avoid configuring modules and everything from scratch):
- uninstall Magisk app Canary v25210
- reboot to flash your old, previously patched boot img with that older Magisk
- reboot and install the corresponding old Magosk app

Hello,
Will the latest 6.1 version be available on f-droid ?
Thx

Hello,
lately adaway is blocking Google podcast images , I have tried with DNS log, but I have allowed anything and still images are not displayed. Can you help me to pinpoint what I need to allow ?

 

[gallegonovato]

Good afternoon @PerfectSlayer @ipdev @zgfg

In the AdAway translation I come across this string:

Unable to copy hosts file to your system partition. Please check Magisk systemless module is enabled then reboot.

And I put it right, but they change it.

But my advice would be:

don't translate or change the part: Systemless Hosts in Magisk . Because Systemless Hosts is what the creator of Magisk calls it and this add-on is in Magisk.

So it doesn't take error what to look and where.

I don't know what you think?

I put a comment in that string in transifex but if it is not ok I comment it here.

A hug and thanks for your time and help.

hey guys, adaway root latest version is eating cpu.

 PID USER         PR  NI VIRT  RES  SHR S[%CPU] %MEM     TIME+ ARGS
 10293 root         20   0  12G 4.5M 3.3M R 68.0   0.0   3:59.39 libwebserver_exec.so --resources /data/user/0/org.adaway/files/webserver --icon

Do you have a lot of lists. Root adaway does nothing but download and collate sources, it shouldn't be resource intensive unless yoi have a lot of lists (even then shouldn't be heavily used cpu)

Hi.
I've tried Adaway not root and it has like 200k domains blocked.
Then i rooted and reinstalled Adaway, and with the root it has 0 domains blocked. So, is it not blocking anything?

 

[useroso987]

it should look something like this. Try clear its data and open it again.View attachment 5878801

Great! I cleared the app data and the 195k domains blocked are back. Thank you.
Should i keep the app "ON" (scanning) 24/7, right? I use it with Netguard VPN.

 

[chairman011]

How can I take this off besides deleting the app? It's interfering with a lot of things not only blocking ads but it's freaking blocking everything lol how to I disable it completely

 

[m0han]

..... how to I disable it completely

Restore default hosts. Reboot and you should be fine. Uninstall AdAway if you don't want it on your device.

Yeah it's a no go for me it didn't work. If i re-flash boot.img will it go back to normal? I mean it's no big deal but I can't even complete a captcha with this on so I can't go past that in certain websites.

New Magisk update out. Does anyone know if it's still affecting systemless modules and adaway. I downgrade from 25210 to 25209 to fix adaway. The new Magisk is version 26001 and was wondering if anyone has updated without any Adaway issues.
