Anyone else having a problem with Adfree Android and yes my phone is rooted.

Not sure what you need to get this to work I've tried everything but apparently one of the fastest tablets on the market isn't good enough, so what are the minimum specs for this spp
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I thought this just wasn't working for me because I had the tablet UI enabled.
same here. N7 with Stock ROM and with ParanoidAndroid this app doesnt work, however it works fine on my HTC Sensation.
On the paranoid ROM, can't you switch to phone ui? Maybe that will do it. (I would try but I don't have my nexus rooted yet. Having needed to lol)

No I tried messing around with the hybrid settings and it still gives me the same error. I tihnk its going by the device name
Weird. Works perfectly here on stock ROM. Restored it with the data from a backup I made on my phone using Titanium Backup.
Looks pretty good !

Use Spark 360. It is fully featured and works great.

Block adds on unrooted nexus

Is there any way to block ads in apps such as angry birds with an unrooted device?
Thanks in advance
Either pay for the app or you would have to root.

There really is no way?
the adfree app and the adaway app work nicely.

Did you read the op? He's clearly NOT rooted. Those apps are for rooted devices.
To answer your question, unfortunately no. Other than trying to play your games with wifi/data off (on some games this will be effective), or obviously by rooting.

Why not? It is faster now (for some phones) still doesn't mean it is good.

That is even worse than the app
Try fast for Facebook or flipster

Most of the alternatives have poor designs . there is just to much on a screen and most stuff isn't working

Was in the same boat you. Currently using this app called Facebook stream or stream. It works nicely so far

This app seems to do things that tasker can already do...
In fact, this app does only two things.. Turns WiFi on or off, and turns sync on or off.
Disappointing. I was expected some CPU management.
Well at least it's free. But I still say save your time and just get tasker which does way more anyway.

The only thing it needs to "learn" is when you're home or at work and how often you check apps that need to sync. Lol.

[req] Port Touchless Control?

So Touchless Control has been released on the Google Play store, is there a way to port it?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.audiomonitor
I'm sure it'll find it's way onto other Android devices in the future :good:
Here's a third party app that does the same thing.

Yeah it isn't the same. +1 for porting touchless control but im worried about the negative effect it will have on battery life, the moto x has a dedicated language processing core for a reason.
