[SOLVED] Adaway not blocking ads? (rooted) - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Upgrading to OOS 4.7.4 has fixed this for me.
Hi guys,
Just got this phone the other day and it seems that I can't get adaway to actually block any ads? I got magisk su, the app works (I can grant it root, it updates the hosts files successfully, I've rebooted, etc) but none of the ads in chrome actually get blocked, for example.
I've done this for every other phone I've previously had without issue, so I was wondering if you have any thoughts around what might be happening?
Thanks.

Did you tried togling systemless hosts switch in Magisk Manager?
It will be usefull if you inform exact version of OOS, Magisk and Adaway

Have you enabled systemless hosts in Magisk settings?
Edit: someone beat me to it

I have tried with it both enabled and disabled (and with reboots in between). The box in Adaway gets checked automatically as well.
In terms of versions:
OOS: 4.7.2
Magisk: 14.0
Adaway: 3.2

You probably use FreedomOS rom right? More people complained about it from what I've read there

No, I'm on Oxygen 4.7.2.

Not sure what to tell you. I have stock OOS, rooted with Magisk 14.0, using AdAway 3.2.
Attached are my settings. Check and see?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Oddly enough, upgrading to OOS 4.7.4 has fixed this for me. Will update the initial post in case anyone else runs into the same problem.

Super Mario Run

Just heard Super Mario Run has came out on android but its not showing as supported for my HTC 10 on the play store?? I tried the app from an alternative store and got an error message after being able to do the first level. Why would the HTC 10 not be supported. would a build prop edit make it work?
Edit: Looks like it might be because Im rooted, going to try Magisk.
Edit 2: seems to be working with Magisk installed, still not available on playstore though.
I installed it through the play store without any problem(root-magisk)

I'm glad this is working for someone.
Perhaps you could add some insight into what my issue may be? I'm sure others might be experiencing it.
I've Magisk v11.6 installed, "Properly rooted" via 2.79 SuperSu.
SafetyNet Failed: CTS Profile mismatch- is occurring though.
I followed these steps, but no success.
What could I try? Does anyone have advice?
I have downloaded it, and played the game successfully. I am stock, non-rooted. I have the unlocked version sold from HTC.

If you flashed Magisk, it would (attempt to) remove SuperSU and replace it with MagiskSU afaik. Incorrect on my part, apologies. It only removes SuperSU if it is not systemless.
If you have SuperSU, I think that may be the issue but I am not entirely sure. I remember issues with Magisk hide and SuperSU back on an earlier build.
EDIT: Have you togged Super Mario Run in the Magisk hide section of the Magisk Manager app?

Yes, it is working for un-rooted users. Rooted users, not so well in most cases.

you need magisk SU to be able to use magisk hide and pass safety net. supersu won't work.

Super Mario Run not working

Just downloaded the game not a fan tho, Wanted to try. I'm on RR 7.1.1 Unified builds and magisk enabled. The game seem to be force closing all the time. A red Nintendo screen splashes and fades away. I'm not t=sure the problem is with the ROM or app itself. I tried clearing cache,Rebooting and all.
Anyone facing the same issue?
Anyone knows how to fix?

had the same issue , turns out it's failing a safetynet issue .
install magisk SU to pass safetynet issue and it should work fine.
See my sig, works with that system.

its a problem with supersu root, if you use Magisk (you can hide it inside official app) won't have problems. I can play to Pokemon GO and SM Run without problem using it

I think it would be interesting to kow if ppl who say it fails to work use OxygenOS or something else. My configuration works for PKMN Go and Mario Run without ANY problems at all.

are you using custom rom? because some roms have root included and you manage it in developer options.
With Magisk configurated and included root turn off, you should play without problems

How to install Magisk on RR 7.1.1?
Hi! I have a one plus one and I am running Lineage OS 14.1-20170130 (7.1.1) and I can't play aswell.
I get the red Nintendo splash screen and it closes.
Running latest lineage weekly with zenith EAS 004 kernel and magisk and no issues whatsoever, I was able to start up the game and make a profile and play without any craziness
Update the magisk to latest version11.6 ! It helped me....
Hope it helps you. Thanks!
Yep, just tried with magisk and it worked. I found it on this reddit just after my previous post. At the r/LineageOS subreddit (the name of the post is "Super Mario Run came out about minutes ago, but crashes on start (Kenzo)" ). (I can't post urls yet)
Doesn't work on latest RR with latest magisk, safetyCheck pass and hide too.
I was on my previous install with latest RR AND superSU
I dirty flashed the ROM to remove superSU and work root with magisk
Is dirty flash is enough to remove superSU ?

Ad blocking on Nougat

So what is the secret to getting adblocking to work on the newest update? I've tried a variety of apps and magisk modules and nothing works.
I am using AdAway with Magisk. Seems to be working.
What issues are you having?

I feel like some ads are blocked and some aren't. Could have something to do with the fact that I lose root on restart sometimes.

Could be. A stable version of Magisk 13 should be out soon. I am hopeful that will fix some of the issues.

Workaround for Magisk + Bank apps

Hey guys.
I would like to ask you, if it's possible to use bank apps + root on this device?
I tried it yesterday several times and couldn't get it to work. On my previous phones if worked perfectly.
What I did:
- unlock OP7T
- root with self-made Magisk patched boot
- hide Magisk Manager itself
- hide the bank app
It worked even yesterday on my other phone, before I switched to 7T.
I'm wondering why it doesn't work on 7T and maybe there is some fix for it?
What happens when you try the bank apps? I've used several (US Bank, Chase, Discover, etc.), and haven't had any issues
It could be detecting another root app or even a folder associated with a root app (Pokemon Go does this with the Magisk Folder). Start digging through your storage to see if there's anything that might be root related.

Did that too. But something doesn't work correctly.
Rootchecker says I'm rooted and also magisk says installed. Also the apps have root rights in magisk. But root doesn't work lol.
I have completely uninstalled magisk and reflashed it again. Root works now. But magisk hide is broken. Maybe OxygenOS is the reason.

Oxygen os cant be the reason when its working for everyone else....start everything again afresh. Something you are messing up...i would restore the phone with msmdownload tool to be sure everything is back to normal then start everythung again

Yep I thought the same to start with MSMTool.
I never used OxygenOS also on the other OnePlus devices. That's why I thought there is something wrong with it.
BTW which version of magisk do you guys use?
Here it works great. Have hide my bankapp in magisk, than repack magisk have give it the name "funny" now my bankapp works great. I use the latest Canary magisk

Question Rooted/Custom Rom and use Work apps

Hi, y'all.
So I have just updated to the new A12 ColorOS on my Op9pro, and I really don't like it. I browsed this forum and found Paranoid was making a rom for the OP. Is it then possible to run this rom without getting a message on for an example MS Teams that my phone is rooted? Last time I tried with an other rom, with magisk hide - I encountered this problem.
Thanks!
Should be fine with Magisk Deny list and hiding Magisk application

Try derpfest it is very good. And yes you can use magisk 24 and configure denylist to hide root access

You will be almost good to go with Magisk DenyList + Universal SafetyNet Fix. I'm using these with DerpFest and all of my banking apps have no complaints whatsoever
The reason why I use "almost" is because some banking apps have their counter measures so im not sure, but at least banking app that I'm using are all passed and good to go with these two.
