Hello, I am unable to disable AdBlock for viewing the program banner, you know how? I have the Rom HyperDroid-CM7-v3.0.1 [a2sd] [LEO CyanogenMod7 2.3.5] [seader_R5], thanks
Do hyperdroid roms not have a modified host file which blocks ads?..
Should just be as simple as downloading the Adfree android app from the market and selecting revert. That's what used to work for me using blueputdroid which needed ads enabled.

rom advertisement blocking, I have some programs like "free sms" so that only work if the banners are allowed, but having this block the program crashes! there is some script? I tried searching the forum but found nothing!
Anyone looking to disable the ad block built in to any of most of the roms, rename hosts file to hosts.bak
System/etc and just etc/ is the location of the hosts file.
Rename and reboot, enjoy your ads.

Install an app-installer or a file manager ,such as Astro.
I think you'd better use the SEARCH function.
But the problem is i want install modified native app, appinstaller wont allow me to do that
Anyone have any experience on native app re/installation ?
you need to resign the app if you modified it.
There is a setting in the menu to allow non market apps
see
Settings -> applications - Unknown Sources
then simply navigate to the apk using the brower, it will download then click hold it to install.
I uninstalled adfree but ads in my browser are still being blocked. I believe I should have made the "revert" selection before uninstalling the app. How can I get back to a normal browser?

I'm not sure if this will work, but it's worth a try
Install adfree, hit revert, uninstall
You probably have to reboot the phone after reverting
This is because it permanently writes to your hosts file. I believe it can be found in /etc. Uninstalling the adfree app does not revert the changes unfortunately. (just providing an explanation...in case anyone was wondering)

To get ads back you would have to flash an sbf. Instructions can be found very easily if you look around.
Just wondering: why would you want ads back anyway?
Well, you could edit the hosts file and remove the entries added by adfree. They are all redirected to the loopback address at 127.0.0.1. The only entry in hosts should be localhost. You can open this file as a text file in any good file manager to see what I'm talking about.
i had to uninstall adfree also. The reason is, lot of links I want to go to, are redirected through these services (slickdeals.com ?) . Installing adfree means those links come up as broken when clicked.
Simply re-install adfree and hit revert. That was the solution. Thanks to all who replied.

Hi my New x8 came with Application Installer v2.1.2 (2010), what is currently the best Application Installer I should use ? what software should I use for SD Browser & for task manager ?
root exppoler for browse folder and installer,, dont know bout task manager.. not use that thing till now..
ES Explorer (for your stock rom) and System Tool for task manager
Is there an app that will only allow to browse the SD card ? the apps you all suggested are superb but very dangerous also.
not really dangerous if you know how to use it
I'm scared of the fact that someone could accidentally delete system files with their itchy hand's.
I use Advanced Task Killer it's very simple and easy to hand.
I use Root Explorer too, but I think that ASTRO File Manager is good for unroot X8 I am not sure I just know that it is one of the most loaded File Manager.
And a secruity app is also important. I use Lookout.
i think the most important app is Applanet, with this you can download almost all apps FREE!
So in this app you can search all filemanager and you can try it which is the perfect for you.
Best regards

Sorry, I mistyped the "SystemPanel" app as System Tool... But "Advanced Task Killer" free, is very good for freeing RAM like jantheg suggested.
As for "ES Explorer" If u dont check the root option and the Mount System as RW option then u wont delete something important 'cause u won't able to...
I liked "Ghost Commander" as file browser before rooting the phone
Foursquare bro!!!! Adobereader for that pdf

But Applanet is illegale, because you can download copyrighted Apps for free so if you don't have problems with this you can use it.
use OI File Manager .its very simple and is not Dangerous
for task manager use Android assistant(it have a file manager included)
Is there host file in the Acer500 software? If so, how do you get to it? I am trying to stop the pop ads on Google. I went to some China websites and I am now inundated with ads for Shanghai Hotels. Thanks for any help.
Yes there is a host file somewhere, can't remember exactly where it is, but just look for "ad free" in the market, it modifies this file. It should do the trick.

Anyone else using this ROM? I love it but have a couple issues. For some reason i can not edit system files. I wanted to delete gmail.apk and install TBO's version but it is locked. I tried 4 different file managers.

If file manager isn't asking for root, I'd try another file manager (like root file manager from the app store). Try force closing the application prior to removing it. Or you could always try Titanium Backup which has a un-install feature for almost all applications:
