Hi Guys

I got my XZ Premium and I wanted to get it rooted just to get the app I used that remove ads (which requires root)
Ive seen that there is no way to currently root it and wanted to know if there is another way I can get rid of ads

The phone has been rootable since day 1 and just use adaway.
If you dont want to root you can use any of the free alternative nonroot adblockers that block ads via vpn routing.

I have been using AdGuard Premium for years. It blocks inapp ads and https in Chrome. Haven't seen any ads for ages (it works with root + nonroot - with nonroot you will have to enable PIN lock to make https filtering working). You get 1 Android + 1 PC lifetime license for about 7 euros :)

And AdGuard is hidden for the websites. Other websites "see" Adblockers and don't let you see the content.

So, AdGuard is definitly the best for unrootet phones.

I use block this! It works flawlessly its great and I love it. Best adblocker ive used could say its better than adaway since it can be toggled on and off and its a vpn one so it doesnt need root.

it's been rootable yeah but you lose drm keys and camera function....so that's no option. I've tried VPN routing ad blockers but they miss a lot of ads and are draining battery
