Ad blocking on android
Ad blocking on android
I would like to pirate on my phone sometimes and the ads on websites are problem. I'm not newbie, I know I can install firefox and get the uBlock on it but firefox android is a little bit slow so I prefer to use Opera browser; opera has an ad blocker but it's a joke compared to uBlock. I'm in a restricted country and my phone is not rooted, so if I use ad block apps like AdAway or Adgaurd they need to create a VPN connection in order to function unless the phone is rooted, and that VPN connection doesn't let me to enable another VPN in order to visit filtered websites or apps.
I'm not stuck, but felt if I ask here there may be another smart solution for ad blocking on android that can solve these small problems; and the solution would help other people so be kind and provide what you have.
You're viewing a single thread.
And that is the reason why I'm rooted and you should be to. Also if you want to add firewall into combination with vpn and adblock, there is definitely no other way.
What do you do about banking apps onba rooted phone? Doe's magicx work for those apps
Interested as well. Used to root everything, but if banking is questionable its a no go for me.
Im using firefox + ublock and selfhosting pihole
I heard rooting has some risks and disadvantages but I have no experience with it. is it good?
It depends if you mind the cons, which doesn't effect me. You can use banking apps, cause you hide magisk root app from them, you have to update manually, cause you need to patch update file to include root (easy), adobe software cannot be fooled by magisk hide so you have to pirate it and Samsung devices will irreversibly trip Knox so no Samsung pay and password. So far I have rooted every device I had since HTC Evo 3D and no problems, only full control of device I paid a lot of money for.
