Been trying both Blockada and DNS66, however when I try to start the service the VPN dialogue won't let me select OK to setup the VPN. Anyone else tried?
I've got DNS66 working fine here. I'd installed it on Nougat, but it continues to work on Oreo.
I've just stopped the VPN service through the DNS66 app interface several times and restarted it. And also switched VPN on and off in the Android settings (where DNS66 is listed). If I switch it on or off in either of these locations the same state is truly reflected in the other, and in both the key icon appears on the status bar with ads being blocked as expected.
So, it does work and has here managed to do its job unnoticed since I got the Nokia 8. I guess you've tried uninstall/reinstall clearing caches? If not give it a go. Any way you know now that it's possible to have it work.
Good luck with your effort to get your VPN sorted
Another app i was using to round the corners was causing the problem. Removing it, setting up VPN then reinstalling solved the issue.

I've got lastpass installed and have chosen to use the accessibility option as I want it to fill the forms in chrome, however the option in accessibility keeps disabling on it's own.
Anyone know a solution?
Wish I did, having the same issue. Seems to only occur after a restart though. I normally switch it off at night and let the alarm switch it back on in the morning.
I changed the app launch settings to manual in the battery menu to fix this

I changed the setting in the battery menu to "manual" but it still keeps disabling several times a day. Does anyone know is there's a fix?
I have a Mate 10 Pro and I have usually been getting this issue after a Huawei software update.
Old thread I know, but the only solution that has always worked for me is the following.
1. Uninstall Lastpass
2. Restart your phone
3. Install Lastpass and enable all the functions you like, including draw over other apps, fill helper bubble etc.
The options at least for me stay enabled until the next update. Without doing the above steps, they will just get auto-disabled after a few seconds.
I didn't want to hijack the Adhell 3 thread so am starting a new one
I managed to install Adhell 3 yesterday on my S10 and absolutely love it (the Internet is so snappy!!) however I've just gone to install an app from Google Play Store (and update an app) and it freezes at the installation part, draining rate battery. The only thing I've done different is install AH3 but have whitelisted Google Play Store as I was thinking the blocking of the app was what was doing it but am still having issues. Really not sure if the 2 are connected, its just the other thing that's changed since I last installed an app (right before I managed to get AH3 on my phone)
Did you by any chance disabled device security app in Adhell?

ha! I did!!! In another battery optimization forum, some people have had success with disabling the device security meanwhile others have had it "break" GPS...in my case, it "broke" GPS
It gets better, you can use the DNS changer in Adhell3 to setup say, 1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1 Cloud DNS
instead of use the VPN app which makes banking apps not function, and w/o having to run some code over ADP to change the system DNS.
Ohhhh!!!!

does anyone have any idea how I get the Apps Only mode to show up or if something in my account is disabling it?
right now I am using wolf launcher in the meantime but I really want to swtich to app only mode so I can get rid of recommendations
I too am experiencing this issue. Have no problem with the first one I set up two weeks ago. This time, first of two more I received, "Apps Only Mode" (one of the few,, however significant reasons, I'm jumping Roku) is missing. I can offer no solution; normal troubleshooting (my third degree is in computer science, CCNA, and I've got major experience/expertise) gives no joy. I'll do the third tomorrow and hope for the best.
I have rooted my s20 Ultra on Android 10 and 11. In both cases, Google Maps have stopped tracking my gps movements in the Timeline, it keeps thinking I am at home. It works fine providing me navigational directions, its just not recording in the Timeline. The only module I have installed is Energized Ultimate adblocker.
I gave Google Maps full permission, my phone is detected and managed in the Google accounts device management. I am not sure what else I am missing.
Android 11
Magisk 21.1
Manager 8.0.3
That sounds like the hosts file Energized is using is blocking whatever address Timeline is using. To verify you can disable the module, reboot and try again. If that's the case you can figure out what address it is and whitelist it.

I wiped my phone and didn't install any magisk modules this time. I drove around for 30 minutes and Google Maps still show me as being at home in the timeline. Another weird thing is that everytime I reset my phone, Google keeps track of the current device. Should Google being deleting the duplicates?
Update-trying to flash again
That was the best guess I had... Every time you reset your device it'll get a new ID, and you'll have to remove the duplicates yourself in Google's settings.
Some (yours truly included) would consider it a good thing that Google doesn't track your whereabouts too much... But, I hope you get things sorted the way you want them.
Hi All,
does anybody has Adguard app ( not private DNS ) sucessfully running with One UI ?
I tried Blokada but could not get that relieable working. Always gets killed or somewhat ...
Could not try Adguard atm as i'm still waiting for my new device.
Maybe someone has tried that and could give his experience here and maybe tell the settings which are needed.
Thanks in advance.
I am successfully using AdGuard on my GM781U. It used to disable itself every once and awhile, but has been very stable the past few months. Not sure if one of the recent updates to AdGuard helped.
I had tried both DNS66 and Blockada with decent results, but it has been awhile, so don't remember why I ended up getting AdGuard.
Also you can combine AdGuard Content Blocker (free, Google Play) with your Yandex or Samsung browser + any adblocker DNS (like dns.comss.one) if you want to minimize delay in loading web pages and not experience adblock app blocking by background services management mechanisms.
Previously, I used only Adguard standalone app and it seemed to me that its work was unstable, often the Internet was simply interrupted or some other apps refused to accept its CA certificate.
