im sorry that i have no info/apps to give... but removing the adds doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of android being open source IE. where should the get money to the continued development of android if we deny them the income the get from those ads? If i wanted an ad free environment i would have bought a windows-phone or an iphone.. the ads symbolizes that we are free..
thats just me 2-cents
-TB-
Adfree works great blocks nearly every ad

good point, fair enough!
However, the freedom can also mean that some guy writes an adblocker! To maintain this freedom, not even those apps can be banned...
EDIT: just noticed, I sound like Larry Flynt
You could just turn flight mode on while playing games also. Not ideal but it works.

Step 1: (if needed) - Root your phone using SuperOneClick (Search the forums for it)
Step 2: Download AdFree from the market. Dev is BigTinCan.com
Enjoy.

This is the first time I have ever been near or used an Android phone. I got my i9000 a few days ago and have started messing about with widgets etc. I have been reading this forum for a few months prior to owning an Android phone as technology interests me. I was following a home screen thread and realized I had to root my Galaxy S to be able to take screenshots. Then I found the One Click Lag Fix app that was on the Android market. The lag was something that was really bothering me and now its running really smooth.
So now I have root what else should I do to my phone?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
A couple apps I use that need root access: mybackup pro and root explorer.
Have fun
I'll be sure to check them out. Anyone else?

This is what I thought too. Apart from backing up to the average user, there doesn't seem to be a lot to do!

Flash roms, overclock cpu, clear app caches. Modify system apps (eg make browser fullscreen).
Anything really.
Clocksync - if cell-network time sync sucks.
MarketAccess - if you can't purchase apps on market
Autokiller or Minfree manager - to keep memory tidy (less necessary on the most recent firmwares)
Screenshot - should be obvious.

So when I go to play WWF, I always get something that should be an ad popping up. However, as I have an ad blocker all it shows is a URL. I have no way of getting it to go away and if it does go away another on pops up. I'm running CoreDroid 1.6 on NAND but its been happening once 1.5. Any help?

I think that we need to replace the host file since that is the file that Ad - Free messes with to block ads.

Hi guys,
this is my first post in Nexus S section. Wildfire is my previous device.
This is an ADblock file that will block almost all annoying advertisement (except those app made by Chinese from China [it do block, but not all]) in your app and browser as well.
Advantages
Free at all, does not use system service, update is not required.
Attachments
HOST.zip: Updated on June 2011
HOST1.zip: Updated on June 2010 (try this one if the first one doesn't block some of your app ads.)
Instruction:
1. Unzip the file and you will get a file named HOSTS.
2. Copy and paste the HOSTS via root explorer to system/etc.
3. Reboot system, and open an app with advertisement and you will see the advertisement is blocked.
Thanks for viewing.
Please hit a "Thanks" if you like it!
Would this work on sgs miui as well?

Whats the difference from just using Adfree on the market, it also is able to check for updates daily.

This script blocked ads from 21k site. It is like windows, they built in the feature but lack of ad block file.
I checked root tools from market, it doesn't block much of the site. It is paid app..
Adfree use service, this doesnt. If you use task killer, it wont kill.

Just tried, superb!!! I use the HOST1.zip. 1st time saw Malaysian developer, Malaysia Boleh!!!

LOL Melvin, at it again i see, so where did your wildfire go now?
Oh and to answer your question ... i didn't bother to update my flashable hosts file for the new recovery... cause tbh i don't really care about ads anymore xD (also including laziness)
Oh and i don't think the boot.img has anything to do with the camera recording (not that i know of course)

No one here uses adblock we all use "adfree" which is free and does EVERYTHING.
Personally, I have recently decided to keep the ads. They are the sole reason we have some quality games especially free ones. Its not like we are in abundance with android app developers, if simply having a small ad will keep them going, please support them.
Hey fellow members which is the most efficient and less download interfereing ad blocker app ?
i currently use adfree.
Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070(16 GB)(2.3.6 DDLJ1)
I use adaway and I think it is the best.

Adblock plus: Causing intruption with Google play and Youtube----they wont open.
Mother of Ad Blocking: Its cutting sound when I use bluetooth headset. Yes it is cutting sound.

I'm surprised no one has figured out how to use bluetooth internet sharing. There is an app I used for this called BT Auto Tethering on a tablet and it worked great, but I couldn't get it to work on my Gear. Maybe someone with more skills can get it up and going?
Use Odin to flash null rom. It has internet access and a browser installed:-

Hey Guys!! Yes!! We have internet access!!!!!! I'm surprise this hasn't gotten a lot of attention, but this weekend it was figured out in another posting. We have internet access with or without root. Just follow the directions from this post below. All you need to do is download 2 apps, one for the phone and one for the watch. I've been a happy camper all weekend browsing the web from my watch! I hope this helps!!
