I just flashed MikFroyo 4.5 and my ad blocker isn't working. Do you guys have any advice on how to get the ads blocked?
Thanks!

Was it granted super user permissions?

Mine works fine. Did you run it and give it super user permissions? If so load the app, press revert, then press download & install hosts. It should reset everything, and you will hopefully be good to go.

I have tried using ad free but still my favorite apps have ads. I know that some roms have ad blocking cooked in. What are they using and is it able to be installed on other roms? I'm sick of angry birds having ads, I can't see some places on levels.

I don't get ads with adfree, have you updated it?
You installed the hosts right? When you open ad free for the first time, you still need to hit download and install hosts even if it says you're good to go.

I have tried renaming the marketupdate.apk in system/app but it still updates itself. I have tried freezing said apk with titanium backup and yet it still updates itself. I have a version of the market that I like but installing it everyday is getting old. How can I successfully keep it from updating on its own?? I'm on CM7.1 btw. Thanks.
Did you freeze the market or market updater?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
I froze the Market Updater using Titanium Backup.
A quick search found me this

Hope this helps...
Froze that marketupdater and the damn thing still updates. I then deleted marketupdater and it still updated to the new crap market! What the hell?

I hate it. I can search for an app and then try to install it and it just sits there forever. But as soon as I install the older version and search for the same app and install it, the app downloads and installs right away. Sigh.

Did you try clearing data and cache from the market app?

Yep, multiple times. I have installed the old version a few times now. I must have jacked with the wrong file or something cuz now the new version FCs when I try to download somthing and the old version closes as soon as I click the Market icon. LOL. I need to reinstall my ROM anyway. Fresh start.
It definitely decreased the visibility for my app. In that way I don't like it, but as a user, I got used to it.

Any one get Google Talk with Video support working on out great phone without flashing a custom rom?
You can also use this app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brainwashstudio.talkinstaller it works fine for me. No force closing.
Keep in mind you need root.

have you tried clearing the data?
I tried this with cm7 alpha on this site with the moded synergy kernel. It force closes at the download. It never asked for root access. I have busybox, i don't know if it needed the commands for it. I will try to restore my backups from another rom and see if it works.
I can't even get regular google voice to work. I can get voice mail, but i can't text or dial. I like having a different number, Tmobile. I have unlimited everything, so why won't you let me make calls. I never had a problem with other companies. Why, Tmobile, why?

Try Adaway.
via xda app
Adfree Android
AdAway works better than Adfree for me, but in general both work only then really well if one is S-OFF),
well I was using this one adblock enable v2 but Its not working for me as well now :-/. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630043&d=1308494869
In gingervillain there's an app called villain setup from there you can flash an ad-remove script. This script actually changes your host file(ip of ad-servers are redirected to localhost) so adds can't be loaded anymore.

Does the Songza app crash for anyone else? I'm not able to load a playlist on this phone.
Are you running "Xposed" tweaks?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Yes I am

That's the culprit. Mine force closes when I have that installed too. I decided to uninstall Songza rather than miss out on the awesomeness of the tweakability made possible by Xposed.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Ah I see ok thanks! I'll leave Mines installed so I can check if any new updates fixes it. Will keep xposed and use slacker radio in the meantime ; D

i have the Songza app and it keeps crashing when i try to play something. i had the Xposed app installed but uninstalled it using the Easy Uninstaller app but its still crashing. i tried to reinstall Songza a few times but no go.

Once you've installed Xposed App it doesn't matter if you uninstall it, Songza still wont work. You have to do a hard reset and start from scratch for it to work.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
yay! i reinstalled the Xposed mod with the latest version and now Songza isn't crashing anymore. I should have thought of that earlier but its all good.

Good to know. I may go back to trying it again. Then again I mainly used it to hack multiwindow to allow all apps and now I can do that with a standalone mod.....
