Hi folks!
Has anybody on Kitkat Stock Rom (4.4.2) or Lollipop managed to get rid of Youtube adds by using apps like Adaway, Adfree or properly modifying android's Hosts file by yourself?
I've tried all above mentioned possibilities but without any success. It would be great if you can provide any solutions.
Thanks!
YouTube Adaway blocked them all for me

Hi, ivanmadzarov...
AdaWay and other advert blocking apps were 'pulled' from Google Play Store several months ago, as being in “Violation of section 4.4 of the Developer Distribution Agreement."...
See here for more details...

You can still install Ad Blockers from the F-Droid repository, available here http://f-droid.org/repository/browse...
...it provides a FULLY OPEN SOURCE alternative to PlayStore, in which you can install the latest version of AdaWay, AdBlock Plus and sundry other apps.
AdaWay itself, is available here...

I want to use some banking apps. My daily driver is CarbonRom. I've tried a number of 'hide root' type apps including Root cloak without success.
I want to have two ROMs, CarbonRom and another Samsung Official. The latter without any hint of root.
Is this possible? And if so how? I'm really looking for people who have actually done this to share their experiences.
Thanks

Answer is I couldn't get a Samsung official to dual boot. However, I did manage to resolve this and record my experiences here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/tip-uk-banking-apps-rooted-devices-t2914936
I was wondering if anyone else out there is having these issues or knows a work around for them
basically can't install gear vr, amazon prime video, netflix, etc
not sure if I need a root hider or custom rom to fix?
granted I'm still working through getting xposed working correctly, last I saw it was having problems with nougat but apparently someone's figured a way
So this thread is for discussing sideloads and getting apps working under root
My first thought is it'll probably go down a lot like snapchat, disable install everything re-enable
I have the G955U1. Rooted following both steps in the [ROOT]G955U/G9551U thread. Then, doing a search in the same thread, Post #744 has the fix for Netflix. My Hulu, Snapchat and Gear VR also work just fine (don't know if it's because of the Netflix fix too). I have not found a working exposed yet for this model phone. Maybe you should try the whole root process again?

problem with xposed is mostly with android 7 (nougat) itself, but there's a work around and it seems to function, but it's both unstable and some modules just don't work
edit: functions *conditionally* for androids via magisk, not stating s8 validation as of yet
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
thanks for the info about getting these apps working though

I have Xposed running now and so far the modules I'm using are working fine.
So, I got my 10 rooted and installed Xposed. I'm wanting to try Youtube Adaway found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-t2547316 Has anyone else tried this?
I use YouTube Vanced: https://apkchest.com/youtube-no-root-noads/
instead of Adaway since it doesn't need root
Hello Friends,
I unrooted my S8 yesterday by installing the latest stock firmware. One reason was, that Netflix didn't play any video on the device.
Now I can't even install Netflix from the Playstore due to incompatibility.
I downloaded the APK directliy from the Netflix help page, but If i want to start the app it says the App is not compatible to my device.
Is that because of the broken knox? Is there any workaround?
Any help appreciated, i dont want to buy a new phone because of one app.
Thanks
Apks from uptodown working
