I am coming from a Note 3 rooted and running the final KitKat version of Biggins ROM. That ROM had something built in I assume to block all those annoying ads in the apps. Now on my Nexus 6P every app has those banner ads constantly running. I am rooted running PureNexus and wondered if there is any way to block those ads?
Look for Adaway app on XDA.
Adaway
That would need the phone to be rooted ? Isn't it?

Dont think you can block ads without root.
Yes.

Adguard does not require root.
Search xda for #nochromo for adblocking chrome experience. No root required.

Howdy ho
I'm specifically trying to install and use Barclays mobile banking and it won't run...cause I'm rooted
Any ways around it such as hiding the root from the app?
Thank You
SuperSu has an option for switching root off temporarily

I unticked "Enable Superuser" and it still reports me as being rooted
I couldn't see a "temporarily remove root" par se
Just a word of warning guys if you reoly on using mobile banking apps like barclays mobile banking do not root or you will not able to use the app i unrooted due to this be warned.
I want to use certain apps like Sky Go and Barclays Banking but they only work on unrooted devices.
Before on 4.2.2 I could use Voodoo Rootkeeper to hide it, which was great.
However, that is incompatible with 4.3.

I had similar issues on N7100 (Note 2) and the way round a rooted note 2 accessing Barclays (root detector) was installing an older version of Barclays app, in essence the app looks for SuperSU or Superuser app I believe.

How about freezing or uninstalling SuperSU? Would that work?

Would cause issues I think, If the app looks for SuperSU or Superuser then it will still find it. You could always just run clean up and unroot then re-root I guess - But it depends on if you wanna re-root again or if you have 0x0 vs 0x1 etc -
I have 0x1, and I'd be willing to clean up but I guess I need computer to re-root?

Yeah PC ODIN, not too sure if mobile odin would work though(?)
Hmm, would be great if it did! However, doesn't mobile odin require root to work?

Actually not 100% sure, never thought about that or used it myself. *goes to check*
EDIT: Yip needs root
Im asking because I keep hearing people say its possible to 'half-root' lolipop on the galaxy note 3, but I have no idea what that means. I wouldnt mind having lolipop if it means I can run applications which require root or run xposed module
It has no meaning and makes no sense far as I am concerned.
It means temporary root

Yep root that disappears after a reboot... Still not really root imo.
I'm still on 4.4.2 and was wondering if I should go up?
I had it rooted initially to remove bloatware and block the OTA but had to unroot to test apps at work.
I would like to keep the ability to root available. Is it worth upgrading? I think I recall hearing battery life was worse but don't know if that has been cleared up by now.
Also I remember checking VZ site a while back for an installer and it didnt seem they had one. Is it only available through OTA? I would have to remember how to reenable that. Or would I need to do something with Odin? I haven't used that since my Galaxy S 4G.
I was hesitant, but then did it using a stock rooted rom.
Currently on 5.0 rooted using xposed and am very happy for the past 3 months.

You missed something. Check the xposed section!
Hey guys I would like to root but I can't get my work email if I do. I know there used to be work arounds for Good, but I think many of them have been patched and no longer work. Are any of you rooted and running Good?

No. I ran into the same problem and just gave up on it. Good thing my Good client is on a work phone and not my personal

I am systemless rooted and able to open the app, but I get stuck when I get to "Enter Email Address" and "PIN."
Don't know if this helps.

Hi Celsian, the email address & PIN are part of the initial setup process. It will check for root after this stage, so unfortunately this doesn't help. Really appreciate the reply and the effort though! [emoji4]

Systemless root is better than traditional Root in many ways. Not having to modify system partition and flashing SuperSU on the kernel is awesome. It's an evolved version of the traditional way
Yes- I have systemless root.

Working old version of GFE with root
I hate Good for Enterprise. It's awful.
But I have to use it.
I'm rooted. Now on a 6P, formerly on a nexus 5. Of you download an old version of GFR, 2.7.1 it works with root and custom ROMs and Xposed.
Just don't ever, ever let it update.
It's just as crappy as e current version and a battery killer, but it works.

Thanks for the reply. How did you get access to the older version?

I don't recall exactly where I found it, but it's out there
Look for 2.7.1 apk xposed and it should turn up in a Google search. I'll check to see if I can locate the download.
I found a workaround. I still have my Nexus 5, which I flashed back to stock. I installed Good on it and then just tether it to my now rooted 6p
