Disable adblocking in an app called "Adaway"

What is the best method of blocking ads on the RAZR i? I'm running InfiniROM which is based on JB 4.1.2.
Adblockplus was the BEST on my old Android 2.3 phone. On my RAZR i, I'm rooted and everything but it isn't functioning the way it should on my rooted device.
AdAway sort of works. My complaint is that it doesn't block 100% of the ads and when it DOES block them, there is a box saying "cannot display this webpage" in place of where the ad would be.
It this the best it gets until they compile adblockplus to work on x86 android devices or is there something I don't know about?

Try Lucky Patcher

U not gonna find it in appstore just Google it.
Good luck

Thanks. I've had Lucky Patcher all this time and I didn't know it could block ads. It replaced AdAway's ~700kb hosts file with a beefy 1.3MB hosts file. It doesn't work as well as adblock but it's the best solution so far.

Are you talking about the one on adblockplus.org? Man, I really wish that would work. It currently doesn't work on x86 androids (the root functions don't work) and it probably never will.
The adblockplus android team is too busy keeping up with the newer JB updates. They're probably not going to bother to fix their app for the couple thousand or less RAZR i users when they've got millions of other users to fix other issues for.
Why not use Adfree? Works like a charm.

In adaway, enable the webserver.
I took all the default hosts files from AdAway, the hosts file that Lucky Patcher provides and another anti ad hosts file that I had and merged them all into one using the Linux terminal. I also deleted the duplicate lines with the terminal. This gave me an ~8.6MB hosts file.
There are sometimes boxes that say "could not display this webpage" just like there is with Adaway and Adfree. It's just that with this hosts file, less of them actually get through. I'm happy with this solution.
If someone wants to test it, use a root file explorer, backup the original hosts file, put this in the original hosts file's place, give this new file the same permissions as the original one and then restart.
This post is almost a year old now, can you maybe merge the updated hosts with the newer MoAB thread file (unless its the same thing?)

Unzip and use the hosts file from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098 . It works great.
Is it possible to get rid of advertising and other recommendations on Miui?
I meant WITHOUT xposed

If you have root you can edit the hosts file.
I have the root and I have installed the app adaway but I still have recommendations on YouTube.
Will try, thanks.
Hosts are those from adaway

The Adaway app does not work any YouTube ads. I don't think modifying the host files will help with removing ads at all..
Hallo.
Used to have a rooted device runnin adaway. After I switched to the Note 5 I have no roote access anymore, so I cannot install adaway. Are there any 'root-less' alternatives to adaway? What about adblock plus? Can I install it without rooting the phone? Does it just block ads in the browser or on a system-level, i.e. inside other apps aswell?
Thank you for your answers!

Has anyone noticed that adaway is letting a few ads through lately
do you update host files regularly? try updating them, also you could try adding custom hosts available on xda forum of adaway.
I think they're learning to bypass adaway by either proxying ads through non ads servers or tunneling the data to avoid IP blacklists. I've also seen some ads getting through in some specific apps.
Just tried moaab but ads still getting through. Something new will be out soon when it affects more and more
Android weather also
I believe that it's because hosts-net server has been down for the last couple of days, and that is the main server used by AdAway. Try Steven Black's hosts file until the situation gets resolved.
I disabled all three of the native hosts servers in AdAway and added his hosts server link and, so far, no ads.

If that hosts link does not work for you, try entering this mirror link:

This is crazy. Just tried that host. Tried moaab and adaway. Ads still flying through. Weather apps true caller all have apps.

Install adaway before they started forcing https hosts servers. I believe it's 3.1. That fixes the issue.
That gives me a error copying ing host file

Oohh, it does not work, but I will continue testing with other versions of adaway.
Thank you very much for the contribution.
Does it matter if you use supersu or magisk

I was using superSu and changed to magisk and it's the same ...
Now I have installed version 3.1.2 of adaway and it is working perfectly.
If someone else can confirm it
Just played around with my apn. It's different to what Vodafone say it should be.
You can fix this by going into the hosts list(https://hosts-file.net/ad_servers.txt) and change it to http instead of https.
How come adaway works fine on my OneplusX 6.01 rr and it's not working on my OP3T 7.1.2 rr?
I have problems if I leave the Vodafone proxy in the apn settings even with adaway running. If I take it out everything works a day I get no ads at all. Strange
Apps locking usage based on Root Check
Hello people,
I've got an app ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.viaverde.clientes ) that is making a root check, and therefore blocking usage based on that. (wich is even more stupid based on the app functionality - check tolls registry)
With Magisk Hide had no luck.
Any other ideas to block or hide root checking by an App ?
thanks
No issues opening it... Did you repackage the Manager with a random name?
