[Q] Ad Blocking

I have rooted my I9505, but neither AdAway or AdFree seem to block the ads they used to on my S3. I am using the same apps (Titanium Backup restore) so why would this be the case?

I'm using Firefox Beta with adblock plus add-on and everything works great here.

For me it works with AdAway. (I9505 XXUAMDN)
Maybe try a new install from the scratch..

Tell us the apps which have annoying ads and I'll check if AdAway blocks them on mine.
It's blocked every app-ad perfectly for me.

My adaway works great also... but some of the apps with ads built in are not blockable.... The internet and all that works
But tell us which apps and we can test as well

Can you try:
CPU Spy Plus Free

Both of them didn't show ads on my S3, and now they do on the S4

Galaxy S6 edge Root problem with modifying apps!!

Hi guys.
I rooted my S6 edge with pingpong root successfully!! Checked it with root check and its perfect!! Root was working good with lucky patcher but there was a little problem with busybox which i resolved it simply by installing busybox app!! Now the real problem is about modifying apps like"GameHacker and GameKiller" after installing those apps and open them i get a SuperSU popup to grant or deny root!! when i grant it it says"root privileges needed" Even though I'm rooted!!
I really don't know what to do guys I really want a solution for this stupid problem!!
Also when i check for updates it says that my device been modded or somehow use Smart Switch on computer...bla bla bla
How can I update my device???
Thats all hope you the best.. And reply as fast as possible

Does Magisk / Systemless work with our root?

In short, Pokemon GO's new update is just taking a massive dump on it's rooted supporters and we can't play the game on the new update. Would our root be able to hide it and allow it to played on our phones with root, still?

Rooted s7 edge.... Pokémon go running strong. No issue. App is up to date.

Are you on the new update with the buddy system? Cause the update didn't full rollout yet...

No, must not have rolled out in America. Are you running xposed?

Yeah I am, but I read somewhere that Magisk requires an unlocked bootloader, but I don't know if the Systemless portion is different.
Most people would say, forget the game, and keep root, but I'd like to keep both, as I've put a lot of time into the game to have this crappy company screw us like this...

If xposed and Pokémon is incredibly important to you I suggest trying the following. There's a work around for snap chat. Same scenario. You have to install and log into snap chat before installing xposed. Get it to build cache so it doesn't do the device check then install xposed. Profit. I'm not sure but it's worth a try.

I had it working then it ****ed my phone up couldn't get it again

The problem is that the new version of poGo is using the same SafetyNet check that Android Pay does to check for root.
Apparently, the only thing that works for this is Magisk (at the moment).

The latest Pokemon Go app is using SafetyNet checks, so this goes far beyond the Snapchat workarounds.

Ah. I wasn't aware don't have the update yet

Just got it...

Accurate.

So the question is can we flash magisk with flashf ire?
Or would something like rootcloak possibly work?
More and more every day I hate niansh*t and it feels like it's no different than if crapple themselves have made the app.

Root Cloak won't work. I tried that on 2 different Samsung phones :/
I'm on tekx rom and when I tried to unroot via SU my s7 edge would only boot into recovery... so I restored a backup.
It's awefully silly to keep rooted users from playing. Seems like they run out of ideas to find GPS spoofers lol

I have rooted my S7 Edge SM-G935F using chainfire-auto-root ODIN method
^ New Pokemon Go update does not work with this root method - I have used rootcloak from xposed - also does not work. You need to root using MAGISK so here is my question.
1. How do I unroot my phone that I rooted using ODIN Chainfire-Auto-Root file?
2. How do I root S7 Edge SM-G935F using "MAGISK" so i can play pokemon go after this new update?
has anybody tried rooting S7 Edge SM-G935F using MAGISK method yet? does it work? please reply and please give a guide or step by step i am a newb

I'm afraid I have to tell you that over on reddit the developer of magisk said that Samsung devices are only supported if they're on a "custom" kernel.
Although I don't know at which point a kernel stops being stock :/

So... You're using the NEW version with the buddy Pokemon and able to use Xposed/Joystick as well and... actually login!?!?
If so... How did you do it?

I'm curious as well. I had to reflash back to stock due to bootlooping so I'm a little more interested in this subject now that the icy plunge or returning to stock has already been made.

pokemon go root bypass

Just a quick question. I see some people may be getting around it with Magisk, but is there anything we can do? Root is more important to me than PoGo so if not oh well.

Use xposed. I was able to play it yesterday using root cloak.

Out of curiosity... What settings did you use with RootCloak? Did you just select Pokemon Go? Or did you do something else as well?

Rootcloak doesnt work with safetynet which is how theyre blocking rooted phones. From what i understand right now, magisk doesnt work with our phones because we are rooted by eng boot and dont have an unlocked bootloader. The creator of magisk says that we need a custom kernel to have it working on samsung devices.

Pay your Bonanza bill

You fraudulently filed chargebacks on valid charges and were not honest when attempting to gain access to our platform (which we allowed) then you filed chargebacks again. Your methods of doing business are very dishonest.

AdAway

I tried to install AdAway, but I get errors after errors. Is anyone here who installed it on a j730f?

It's a root only app.
You can't use it without rooting your mobile.
To block ads on non-rooted mobile you can use Adguard.
I am currently using it on my J7 Pro and it works really fine.

My phone is rooted with magisk.

Then I think Adaway was unable to get proper root access permission.
Recheck that.

I have solved the problem by installing busybox by stericson.
