[Q] AdFree

Adfree does not block Ads on my TP and I have no idea what to do to fix it.
I have updated the hosts file and it says success you may need to reboot etc, but after a reboot the ads are still there.
I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times trying to get it to work but no joy so far.
I am currently running the official 0522 nightly but Adfree has never worked no matter what rom i have installed.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.

I stopped using adfree a long time ago, mainly because of this(not blocking anything). I started using Adaway and it works perfectly.

I second AdAway. I've been using it for a while on my phone and it works great.

Thanks for the heads up, AdAway works nicely, it helps to stop my browser from constantly crashing and force closing without any warning.
Now if I could just figure out a way for the browser to remember to keep me logged in to certain sites like this one. Each time i leave the site I have to re log in. It didn't used to do that with the Alpha version. But on the nightlies it won't remember. The only plus to that is it does remember my user name and pw and enters it into the fields so all i have to do is is tap the logon button. It gets sort of cumbersome after a while when you use a site like this all the time though.

Well, I haven't had this problem with the chrome beta, but the only problem with it is that they've yet to give the ability to use flash player with it.

If I have to come here, I use the XDA Premium app. But that's just me. Chrome remembers most of what I need for most of where I go, and where it doesn't, it does the same - plugs in the username and pass for me.

Do any of you guys have this app that I can download directly. (Not through the market) Every time I try to download it I get this message.

Go directly to the play store website and sign into your Google account and install it from there, just select install and then your device

Not sure what the rules are on posting apk's that are not mine here on XDA but I do know where you can get the apk. The developer posted it on several places. This is one of them.

Thanks guy. Your right searching is great, I finally went out and did that myself earlier. I have just been to busy to do it and thought if someone had the apk they could just send it over. Had that done quite a few times on xda. I appreciate all your help though.

[Q] AT&T Visual Voicemail. Anyone get it working?

I'm unable to find AT&T VVM in the Google Play Store which I assumed to mean it wasn't compatible. I manually found a link to it and sure enough it says it's not compatible with my device and wouldn't let me install it.
I made sure my older S3 was up to date and pulled the APK off that and put it on my N6. It installs just fine and seems to start the setup process OK too. It asks me to call my VM to activate it, it auto calls my VM for me and then when I close out of the call I see the VVM app says its activating but after a bit it says it was unable to activate and to check my connection etc and asks if I want to call my VM to try again.
Someone made a post about no Verizon VVM either and I made the comment same on AT&T. Someone had replied in that thread with the following:

For ATT, this works fine, I use it.

However, this did not work for me. Same issue as the one I pulled from my S3.
Question is, did anyone get AT&T VVM working and if yes what APK and how?
Thanks!

Did you try turning off wifi before the setup? I've seen some say they have had to in the past, that only cellular activation would actually work. In any event, it works great for me...
The below is just a screen shot of it running on my phone... you can see i get past the point where your stuck at... ( att, just rooted and unlocked, stock everything else )

Hmmmm I did not shut off WiFi. Let me try that.

Used same apk as you, on LTE, worked fine for me on my unlocked Nexus 6.

Still not working.
I just spent the last 30 minutes on the phone with AT&T trying to figure out if there is a server side issue but they had to escalate the case.
Funny side note, the AT&T tech support guy tried to remote into my phone using their AT&T remote access app but I was unable to open the page to install it because the phone is not carrier locked. Apparently per the tech, the app only loads on carrier locked phones. He put me on hold while he went to talk to his supervisor and who said yeah won't work on N6's, they are not carrier locked.
During the process I let it slip out that the phone was unlocked, rooted and decrypted. Shouldn't be an issue warrant wise or insurance wise if ever needed should it? They don't keep track of that stuff I assume?

using app version 2.7.2.1
transferred app and setttings using helium from my nexus 5
works with no issues

Works fine for me. Worked fine on my T-Mobile sourced Nexus 5 and Play Store Nexus 4 as well. I don't think it is available on the Play Store though.

I was able to download the APK and just installed it directly. Opened it up just fine and set it up as normal (i turned wifi off as I always do for setup)
Specifically I installed version 2.10.1.27, got it at the link below
Visual Voice Mail Topic

Still not working and I'm running down the list of APK's at that link. I just keep getting what you see in the picture below.

OK I just tried ALL of the AT&T VVM apk's on that thread and they all gave the same error.

I am getting a different error. When I search up the application in the play store it says its not compatible with my device (AT&T Nexus 6 (Motorola). Anyone else seen that? Happened to a game or two as well.

I just installed the one in your link and it worked fine. Bone stock N6. Anyone have an apk for latest version that includes the sensor setting to turn off screen when phone is brought up to your ear?

Yeah I don't think it's been int he Playstore for Nexus users for a LONG time for some reason. That is why people pull the APK and put it in that XDA thread mentioned in this thread, because people need it and can't get it from the Playstore.
Still haven't gotten this working yet.

Worked fine here

Still not working today either! =(
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

I've used Google Voice for VVM ever since Galaxy Nexus because of install issues with AT&T's VVM app. If you use Hangouts for SMS it is even more convenient because voicemails are merged with SMS and Hangouts conversations in the app keeping everything in one conversation thread.

I just had to make sure my wifi was off when first starting app but its worked fine on the last 2 custom AOSP roms I have loaded.

Apps closing after upate
Hello

After opening and playing a game for few minutes, the game close. This happened with many games. It only occurred after installing that latest update and this was the only problem I have not only with games but all apps in general

hmm, I am a fan of MobileLegends MOBA. Play everyday and I dont encounter such issue after the update B162. The only issue is GPU tends to underclock so much that game frame rates during battle are quite unbearably slow.
Maybe try to wipe cache and see first.

I will give this a shot
However, until now and even though I have this exact update B163, I am still having the force close problem

I have the same issue, can't download anything from the app store, there's often a couple of hours of delay. I would click the download button and it would show downloading, but nothing would happen. I'll leave the phone over night, and when I wake up it would have installed the app.
This also happens with imgur. I try to download an image, but nothing happens, then afer a few hours I would get a notification that the image is downloaded.
It seems they are aggressively closing background task responsible for downloading, to increase battery time.
But it's not working, I'm stills getting around 2-3 hours of screen on time

Cache was cleared more than 1 GB

The problem is still there. I guess I need to wait for the new update to come. I hope it will not take long but for now I will contact Huawei support

Disable Chrome
Hi, the constant force close is caused by chrome update, roll it back to v56 or disable it and it all works fine. I did the reset but as soon as i updated chrome to v61 force closes started. My phone is good now. I actually bought this phone yesterday and updated as the notification came.

Question Differences between "global" versions?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if there are any differences between so called "global" versions.
I noticed 3 things...
1. My dialer/contact app/message app are from Oppo. The ones I saw on YT look like from Google
2. Latest update A.17 showed on my phone with almost 300 mb to download. For other people here it was only around 160-170MB.
3. Except Google Play I have also App Market which I assume is from Oppo.
Do you have google dialers/messaging apps or from Oppo? What about this AppMarket? Do you have it?

Yes i think contacts is the same app (incl. dialer).
Example:
Download ColorOS Messages APKs for Android - APKMirror
Download ColorOS Messages APKs for Android - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads
www.apkmirror.com
You can look for contacts/dialer app on the apkmirror as well.

How about these files:
For phone (dialler and contacts) https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/oppo/phone/phone-8-13-3-release/
For phone services (do i need this???) https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/oppo/...e/phone-services-8-3-17-android-apk-download/
I did not find anything for contacts, just the phone and oppo calendar!
Thank you for helping out!!!

Call recording

I have the leather backed Chinese version and there are a few issues that I might not be able to live with. I can't use Google messages as default sms app, at first I was not able to restore all data from google during setup i ended up finding a way to do that. The big issue is my apps passwords are not being auto filled, works fine through the chrome browser but not with apps. I don't even get the option to have the information saved in autofill after I enter the password in apps. I don't think that's a problem in the Global version, correct me if I'm wrong. I love the phone but I think I'm just going to sell it at this point after having it less than a week.

Hi,
I have the same problem. Tried everything.

I have same issue. Did try the same and reset the whole phone. Nothing helps. And I lost the new play store design with this new buttons on the bottom. Maybe that come back anytime. Android 12 almost ready for sure and will fix stuff like this

Hi,
Facing the same problem the only workaround I could find was to install apps is to search the app on the browser and open and install it from there

Same issue...also i cannot keyboard in some apps.

And the point with the new design, you can remove the google account and add again, then it comes back for a while. But, for whatever reason, it doesn't keep and it is going back to the old design very fast again. So, sadly there are no solutions at the moment, that work permanently. And yes, google app can help to find apps, at least as a transitional solution.
