Call me crazy, but Adaway is working on my N970U - Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods

I wouldn't post this if i was not for sure. I thought i was going crazy once i seen there was a new beta version out and installed it, version 5.0.3. I missed having Adaway enough that i would install it without root just to see the icon and to click around in it from time to time............not weird at all, i know
It even works for apps!......Download 'Ad Boom' from the Play Store and see for yourself
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2190753
Apparently its no secrect, people are there talking about it but i'm so glad it works without root that i'm spreading the word. And because i didn't find it here, i just came across it on web.

Yes, thanks to vpn based adblock solution

No crazy at all, it works great and no need to root any more

This app supposed to block adds from YouTube?
Because is not blocking adds from YouTube.

I just use Youtube Vanced for an ad-free Youtube experience, works on non-root as well

Wooo......slow down there buddy ?. There is always reasons to root. If only to change the bootanimation or to simply stop seeing "Permission Denied". I use Termux a lot and i will get "Permission Denied" for various reasons. It's nice being able to type "su" and seeing $ go to # then typing in that same command and it doesn't hesitate because now your the boss.
Change my mind ?
Yes, I do have an unrootable Note 10, lol (long story). Means nothing, I stand firm

I call OK crazy because sure as he'll it does not work non rooted

Testing help required!

Hey folks, I've had a report from the Play Store that my app is crashing on Glides, but I can't get a log from the users. If any of you would be so good to test out the function and see if you have issues, and then grab me a log of the crash, I would be really grateful.. Will increase your thanks meter of course.
My app thread is here and the latest release is in post #3
When the app opens there is the option at the top to go to Android TTS settings. Apparently, clicking on this causes a crash.
Thanks in advance

Thank you If root is detected, su access is requested for advanced functions. Full busybox commands by voice are in the making!
I downloaded the one from the appstore and that one is working well as well. Got it to learn my name and tell me the time and toggle WIFI on and off. Working fine so far. Yes it does ask for SU. No crashes so far. Is the beta any different?
No problems here. Runs smoothly and recognizes commands.
Running stock rooted.
Tested it on a used Glide I just bought and haven't had time to root yet. Running stock 2.3.5 that was factory reset a couple of days ago. No problems accessing any menu or sub-menu item. Guess I just haven't had time to put enough crap on it to make it unstable.

Thanks guys, it's appreciated - strange that the crash can't be replicated - there must be some other issues on the devices that are having problems.
The beta release is still a while away and will contain many more advanced features for full device control by voice. It's strange bug reports like this that slow me down! At least I can move on from this one now.
Thanks again, your thanks meters have increased.

This feature is working well on my test devices - it'll make an appearance in a couple of releases time, after I've had chance to test it on multiple users calendars and multiple calendar apps.
Ok I just tested my theory. With Pico TTS uninstalled it tries to open settings, which freezes and FCs, and it dumps you right back in your app. Your app does not crash. Honestly if this is the bug, I'd say it's user error and not your fault.

Good work Thank you. I assume the crash also may extend to the Pico engine (or perhaps any other) having installation corruption of some kind.
Thanks again to everyone who replied and tested, it's really appreciated. I think I can safely say 'not guilty!'.

Thanks for that. Figured since it was released through the beta program as an OTA there still might be early issues... "Slow and janky" clarified that. Doesn't seem there is anything too horrible that doesn't work.
In your opinion could this still be a daily driver? Of course that always depends on what your doing with your phone.

I'd still hold off for a little while until it's been done a couple times just to make sure though. Although, I can't think of why it can't be done since it's not an official release yet.

So far havent found any show-stoppers. A few apps dont work. Google Pay is being weird about adding cards, though I have some added.
If you dont mind running into some bugs, then so far, it seems stable enough, but wont really know til after using it for a day.

so far the MyATT app crashes every open.
FiSwitch app, widget doesnt seem to work at all.
CustomNavigation bar app opens, but cannot be enabled due to Android version issue (also possible because Google seems to have gotten rid of system ui tuner altogether, or there is a new way you have to enable it that I havent found).
SolidExplorer gives a toast about API compatibility issue, but so far seems to work fine. I did have to delete and re-add cloud storage providers.
Off-hand, those are all I can think of, still have more to go through.
I installed factory images, did full wipe. In the past, when I have installed new OS with images, and deleted the -w (wipe user data flag) there were always issues, so I did clean install.
So far apps such as LightFlow, KWGT, CallFlash, things of that nature seem to be fine.

Bugfixed version HERE. Sorry, was catching up reading the thread a few weeks back and then hit a newer "beta" which fixed a problem with the initial release. When it is final it will be posted in the OP and F-Droid.
I'm using DNS66 from Fdroid. Small app, simple and it works. Just make sure you use right hosts. The default hosts started showing some ads so I replaced all hosts with just one - from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098
Did some reading I guess on Instagram of you report the ads as in appropriate will get rid of them and over a week you should see far less or none.

the concept is the same as 10.0.3
you need to install magisk canary app, set OEM unlock and adb in developer options in phone, then find the correct 10.0.7 magisk-patched-boot.img file from the forum then flash with adb
Just installed aodNotify by Jawomo on playstore. It's an early access app(not everyone will be able to download just yet). It's just fantastic!! I bought the pro version (less than a dollar). No battery drain, absolutely does what you intend to. Highly recommend it!

Please check on playstore. It clearly says its for one plus(actually 8). Anyways i have been using it flawlessly. Y don't you try it for yourself and see..

Thanks for sharing. I guess the app developer needs to update the app's description then, as it still lists specific Samsung devices as the only ones with which it will work.

Question Safetynet api error

Hello looking for help as I can't figure out what's wrong. I've tried downloading the code on only wifi and only mobile data and I still get the api error. I'm not running any add blockers.
Using magisk canary.
I just came here to post this exact question and you beat me to it. I'm having the same issue, but I did verify that SafetyNet passes using another app from the play store, so the issue seems specific to magisk.

Oh well, that looks bad. May switch to iPhone if that's the case. Pixel phones lack performance and other Android phones have a quite bad software experience in comparison, oneplus included.
My plan was to switch to a pixel rom soon to have the best of both worlds like I did with previous OnePlus phones as well. Now I may not be able to do that without losing many features. Thanks Google!

Per the link above, this is just an issue with Magisk app's API key, and the dev already has a fix. No reason to do anything drastic like switching to iPhone.
