Oh, Wow that post has made its way around quite a bit. It's definitely an awesome fix and I'm glad that we atleast have a solution, although I believe it should be available natively inside the client.

I use Chrome UA Switcher from Play Store

Once I did this it occurred to me that I'll see ads now. Any blocking suggestions?

? It doesn't change the host file, so if you have ad block installed then it won't be affected by this modification.

Sorry. I explained that poorly. I meant that now that I'll see full websites I'll get their ad glory too.
Was curious about which ad blockers people enjoy.

Awesome. Does it block ads in apps like scrabble too or just chrome?
These may be basic questions and I apologize. I recently dropped my iPhone for a galaxy nexus.

Globally. However, some still show the black box where the ad would be. Others don't show anything if the ad can't load.

MyKnox

Anyone found a version of myknox that works on the S8? I can do secure folders, and I see that knox is installed, but I can't create a myknox workspace... Boo...

Looks liek it cost money now? https://www.samsungknox.com/en/solutions/knox-workspace

That is an MDM (Mobile Device Management). It is for enterprises not for consumers.

I guess my use of the work workspace was confusing. Sorry. I definitely mean for a personal device, not corporate managed by MDM.

What does the feature do though?

For personal use? As I understand it it's basically military level security to separate business and personal apps. Also, you only get a 30 day free trial.

Correct. MyKnox was knox for regular users to enjoy the secure secondary workspace using the knox security platform. Secure folder is just the next version of myknox, incorporating all the suggestions they received to make it less complicated, a bit faster, and more seamless for regular users. Most users were not using the full launcher setup in myknox, but the folder mode. There is no difference in the encrypted volume afaik. If you like the older two phones style, you can just sideload myknox. Not sure if it still works, but on the S7 you could install both, and have a total of 3 environments.

Try this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6WG7_c-hYT8SlVJVHpSSkNiNlE/view?usp=drivesdk
First install Knox.apk, next install KnoxManager.apk
Go in your home drawer and enjoy✌

It works great. Both the apk from Sammy downloads and the gdrive link, I tested both. I love having the secret fodder for personal things, and the MyKnox for my work stuff. I like being able to have it in launcher mode.

That's the one! I like the idea that my work could screw up their MDM, and send a hard wipe to my phone, and it only affects that little segmented blob, not my whole phone!

It's not a 30 trial.
The user version is free.
The enterprise version is what costs. Knox allows companies to even do things like DEP (Apple term) for all their devices to force device management on them. You can even push custom Samsung made firmware on KME enabled devices. Quite powerful stuff. Knox takes advantage of the hardware encryption on the device and encrypts all data at rest, in memory and in CPU. It's quite powerful.
Oh, and any MDM (mobile device management) system that pushes commands on the device, uses Knox APIs for most of the features. There are only a few basic Google APIs used for MDM. Rest are customized by Samsung - they are one of the very few, if not the only OEM that puts a TON of effort into adding APIs for MDMs to add new features.

I can confirm this, coming from a OnePlus 6t the one thing I was missing not being able to root was ad blocking. I got Adhell3 up and running, pretty easily actually and now I don't miss root.

I'm using the Adguard (3.0.291), and it works fine.
You need to download the app from their website.
https://adguard.com/en/adguard-android/overview.html

I was also able to use AdGuard (3.0.291). I moved to Adhell3 to use in conjunction with a vpn.
Both have worked great though.

The Adhell3 dev put together some scripts that pretty much automates building:
https://gitlab.com/fusionjack/adhell3-scripts
It's much easier to me than trying to hack a prebuilt app. Plus, you know you have the latest and greatest version.
Most annoying party will be rebuilding every 3 months when the edu Knox key expires.

Dns and vpn in general are not a threat.
A malicious dns provider could redirect your traffic to a clone of your banking site.
A malicious dev or vpn could play man in the middle and copy or snoop on all your traffic.
Really is about who you trust. Turning vpn and your selected dns off means you trust your service provider more. Which is prob fine.
My vpn is provided by ProtonVPN, I trust them. I use the OpenVpn app and trust them, so I leave VPN connected 24/7

I'm using adguard and it works perfectly for blocking any ads. However I have some issues with it blocking my entire connection until I disable and enable it again ?

You can use an app like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tohsoft.app.locker.applock.fingerprint , but I prefer just a short screen on time so the fingerprint will be required again

On IOS is avalaible now and soon become avaliable in Android

If you use cpl as your launcher, it has a feature called secure apps. If you like stock android launcher look, you should give this one a try.
