Disable ADDs - adaway.apk for rooted note 3

[aparasg1]

This is to Remove adds in many apps like angry birds and even blapk market. Tested working. Didn't see adaway in android market so here it is..

Ad away can be found in F-droid. Just an FYI

How does it block your ads? I use the same and still saw ads in apps. So had to use lucky patcher on those to clear them out

There are a few apps that it does not remove ads from and I am not to sure why. The official apk can be found here.

I'm using bigtincan's AdFree
Official Download Mirror

Always used this on my previous devices and it worked well. Havn't seen any ads yet.
Can anybody confirm this as another ad block solution?

Ive heatd of AdFree for a while but I've found AdAway easier to use. Comes down to personal preference.

I don't suggest lucky patcher. There are several issues caused by lucky patcher. The main one being your device showing out a of storage space when trying to install apps.

Why did you have to jinx me!? I had no such problem until I read it here Removed Lucky Patcher

I was using AdAway with no luck blocking ads.

So I flashed the mother of all ad-blocking found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098

Now that, worked great except some sites I do visit are blocked but all it takes is a simple edit to the hosts file to remove the block on said sites. :victory:

Lol.... at least when it happened, you knew what caused it. I know if some people that took weeks to figure out what was causing it.

adaway has been my favorite since it came out. it's the only one i know of that allows custom black AND whitelists.

The problem is that adaway or Adfree dont seem to keep their info on reboot so the ad re-appears... a pain

 

[madsquabbles]

no on any of my 6 set ups. adaway always keeps its settings. it actually writes over the host file. maybe you're doing a symlink instead into a temp directory?

For the life of me I can't get AdAway to work. Right at the last step it gets an error. AdFree works though. Doesn't block everything but its better than nothing.

I am one of those people. . I spent at least a week trying to debug .. deleted stuff off my sd off my internal.. Tried another sd.. Finally someone read my plight and told me . Man that was a pain. .

I just got it working on my NOTE 3! I installed adaway 2.7 ran it and just like 2.8 it did not work. ... cleared data and cache... uninstalled and did the same thing for 2.6 and it also did not work so I tried 2.8 one more time and like magic it will write the host file now.

I was having issues with it also...Using Titanium Backup I converted it to a system app and it hasnt failed since on me.....

How do I add Google ads to safelist on AdAway? I mean I don't wanna block Google adds that show up when doing a Google search.

 

[snest]

I use Adaway at my rooted Note 3.
The problem is that Facebook and Messenger doesn't work.
If I replace the new Hosts with the original and freeze adaway, the two apps work.
So, is it possible to use adaway but remove some hosts, an Facebook, Messenger still work?

Please, if somebody knows the hosts to remove….
Help.
Thanks in advance,
Stavros
