the application genius stream refuses to work because of adaway it asks me to uninstall the application adaway. Is there a way to make Genius Stream believe that he has no adaway on his phone?
Look the problem.

two possible options; firts, turn off adaway before running the app. The second one, I dont remember but I am quite sure that adaway has a whitelist mode to put your on apps/domains to pass the firewall. I dont remember because I dont have root and I use Adhell3 and in this app there is that option.
Hope it helps

It looks like if you use a hosts file for adblocking. Hulu will just sit at buffering when it tries to load the ad. Anybody else see this?

I'm using Adfree and didn't see this...
The hosts file I downloaded is definately the culprit for me. guess i have to find what I need to remove from my list. blah.
edit: removed everything that had "hulu" in name of my hosts file and it works fine now.
adfree blocks hulu tested myself
if its not then you're not using adfree correctly
just go into adfree and revert back to normal host fiand revert back to blocking after

if you're using CM7nightly roms its required to reinstall adfree's host file after every nightly update maybe you have adfree installed but not using adblock host?

Are you running adfree or another ad-blocker?
I'd look at the Play Store for the apps you've installed. Look at the one-star reviews and see who *****ing about ads in the app.

You won't find one in the Play Store; Google did a "house cleaning" and pulled all of the ad blockers.
I'd recommend adfree at:
http://adfree.bigtincan.com/index.php
You'll have to manually install it, copying it to /system/apps, and ensure the permissions are set to 644 (rw, r, r).

i just tried two ad detectors(appbrain ad detector and trustgo ad detector) but they couldn't find any..
i'll look into your adfree app, thanks!
This annoying ads come from apps downloaded from untrusted sites or cracked apps, most of them are adware who pretend to offers you free apps when it really are virus.
I know I'm rooted cause I deleted a bunch of google apps from system but I still cant get Adaway to work.
It says it updates fine and I reboot but I still got ads.
Anyone else?

Are you using the most updated version 2.9.2?
+1 to what 2swizzle said. Use 2.9.2, latest SuperSU (2.36), check if your hosts are enabled in AdAway.
have the latest versions...ill try and use the webhost option and see.
thanks
2.9.2 works fine here
Use adfree. It works.
does not block ads in youtube for me
Adaway doesn't block ads in YouTube for me either, but everything else works fine.
Make sure "Reduce data usage" is turned off in Chrome.
I'm pretty sure you have to use the Xposed module YouTube Adaway to block ads on YouTube. But since Xposed doesn't support ART, no blocking of the ads on YouTube.

Hello,
I am getting airpush like ads periodically on my Chroma ROM. Clicking on the opt-out link takes me to tracker.tpc.re page isn't available when trying to opt out.
Tried uninstalling every possible applications that were installed recently and also the ones which might contain ad codes. Tried using Airpush detector and opting out of Airpush.
Let me know your suggestions.
I'm on stock rooted so can't help with Chroma. I run Adaway with the MOAB ad blocker add on. Never seen an ad on anything.

I don't think it has anything to do with the ROM. Guess some app is causing it. I wonder if there was a way to find that app.. Like long press on a notification reveals the App. But this floating AD doesn't do that.
I am also running AdAway and am rooted.

rom toolbox pro has a menu that will tell you what ad host are in apps. its not foolproof and occasionally misses some, but maybe give it a try.
btw, its located under "dns changer" on the first menu screen.
I have had good luck with AdOns Detector. Free I the play store.
On the 7.1.1 open beta 3, rooted, system r/w, adaway applies just fine and after reboot no ads are blocked.
Anyone else facing this? What can I post to help me get this answered?
Adaway is the newest Feb 08 APK.
Edit: checking systemless does nothing different, data saver turned off on Chrome as well. No vpns.

Well I just got home and noticed that adaway works just fine on wifi... But no dice on data. Carriers proxy setting?
What kind of root u have?
What hosts did you add in adway!? It's for your location?
When you press download and apply in adway, it's says enabled?
What settings did you have in adway?
Because on my side, all seems to be good. Adway work.

Super su 2.79 SR3
I didn't add anyhosts, just hit download and apply.
No errors on apply. Reboot everything is active.
Default settings.
Here's what I found, on wifi adaway works, on mobile data it doesn't. Its because of my mobile carriers APN settings is defaulted to have a proxy set up. I have edited the APN without the proxy and everything works as expected, including adaway. Yay! Except I cannot send or receive mms without that proxy. So I'll have to suffer with ads on mobile data.
That can be fixed by setting up separate APN for MMS which uses that proxy, and another for default that's used for surf.
