working adaway on mix 2 - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers

Can anyone recommend a working adaway app or zip for the mix 2, I've tried several and it's not working. I am rooted.

Just download it off fdroid. You're rooted right?

Yeah I did, but it's not working. I've tried using the module from magisk and even with that it's not working.

I'm using the Unified Hosts Adblock Magisk module (available in the app repository). I have the systemsless hosts option enabled in Magisk settings. Then I installed Unified Hosts Manager from the playstore to enable it. Not a ton of options. But seems to be working. That being said, I am on XenonHD. It seemed to work on Epic ROM as well. But I was only on it a day.
I have a whitelist to allow 2 Google urls that seem to drive Google Play Music crazy.

no problem here,watch your permission

I did notice a issue in the past on stock miui using magisk 15.2 adaway wasn't working. Latest version is working now.

Take DNS66 from fdroid ... no root needed!
Works perfect for me since months

For whatever reason Adaway has stopped working for me on the EU MIUI ROM, there's been 3 weekly releases since my current version but I'm waiting on the Oreo release to bother updating again. It did work on the version before this but I only realised due to this thread it wasn't - just gave me a black screen on loading the APK to update the hosts file.
I've since swapped to the magisk unified hosts module like above and it works perfectly - wish I'd not bothered with Adaway.

I have a Globe Rom installed.
My first try was with magisk and adaway did not function.
Second try using SU without magisk and adaway worked perfectly!

Adaway worked for me on xiaomi.eu 7.12.21 with magisk

Any way to block Youtube Ads on 7.X Nougat?

I see most custom ROMS have moved to 7.X which is awesome. But there currently isn't an Xposed module for Nougat yet (almost), thats been my main way to block Youtube ads and enable background Youtube playing. For that reason I've stuck to final build 6.X roms. But I was wondering if there was a way to do this on 7.X and what are people using to do so?Thank you.
I don't have already find an app with this two feature :/
But for AdAway (only if you have a rooted phone), you can try this mod by arter97 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3449312
And for background playback you can try OGYoutube : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2213945
I hope this can help you
Just install the newest version of Ad-Away to do it. If the app is not able to switch the hosts file you have to flash Ad-Away systemless root zip in TWRP. Works like a charm.

Hmm, interesting. I will try this.
Do you have a link to the systemless adaway zip?

No need for zips anymore since the systemless function is already integrated into the latest version of Adaway (v3.2) and here's the thread so you can bookmark it.
The Og YouTube was having great a hard time downloading and had some issues. I tried the ater97 and that worked great. I'm so glad now to be able to block YouTube ads I thought you could only do that with exposed for the longest time which is very aggravating

Does anyone have a working AdAway on their updated OnePlus 3?
If so, can I have the link, or tell me what you did to make it work.

I also experienced problems with adaway after upgrade from 3.2.8 to 4.0.2. Solution was to use latest adaway apk. Seems like the old one worked with 3.2.8 but not with 4.0.2. Now I use adaway Nov 19 2016 apk on oos 4.0.2 and all is fine!

Magisk 12.0 + Purenexus ROM

I flashed the purenexus rom with elemental X kernel and a modified version of magisk 11.6 that was made for roms on the pixel. I was wondering if there was an update to this so I can upgrade to 12.0
I flashed v12 which I downloaded from this post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/how-to/magisk-pixel-t3573845/post72045390#post72045390
Everything's working just fine (May PN + Elemental 1.11).
yeah me too. works great, very good combo

Has anyone been able to install this successfully? 11.6 works great, 12.0 after multiple attempts results in no root.

Try going to apk mirror and installing the latest magisk manager. Also make sure NOT to enable BusyBox in it.

I had the latest (4.3.3) and still no dice. Magisk-12.0-Pixel doesn't work on my Pixel.
11.6 + Magisk Manager 4.3.3 works beautifully.

I didn't quote you because your issue sounds like you need to wipe out the 11.6 folders and and reinstall 12. It's a different issue. I don't have a link but c_goodwin details how to do it in the RR thread.
do you have to run purenexus or can it run on stock?

Fair enough; that was it. I ran the uninstaller as part of my May OTA/April BL flash and it updated to 12.0 successfully and am rooted. Thanks!
I'm running the May update of PureNexus with Magisk 12.0. Have root via MagisSU with root hide and busy box enabled and all is working well. Even pass safety net check.

I cant get 12.0 to work on my Pixel XL but i have 11.6+4.33 manager installed and works great. i tried many times to get 12.0 to work i even did a full restore to factory and then flased my Custom ROM (Pure Nexus) and then did the full install of 12.0 following the directions and still says no root limited access. but gone back to 11.6+4.33 no problems at all
how did you do the install of 12.0 and the 4.33 manager if you could give the steps please.

v4A on magisk16.4 may update?

Has anyone been able to get a v4a module working on 16.4 and the may update? I tried installing the module by viper50 and ahirion that has worked so well in the past... Doesn't seem to be enabling for me this time around for some reason. Any ideas?
Or other mods to recommend?
V4a v2.5.05 working fine with magisk 16.4 and may update here.

Are you flashing in magisk or twrp? Which module are you using? Thanks!
I'm neither of the other posters, but flash V4A via Magisk using the module authored by Viper520, ZhuHang, Ahrion, and Zackptg5. Be certain that you select the new driver and the materialized version of the app for V4A to work properly.

This ^^ : point upwards: ! Especially the underlined part; it took me a whole lot of trial and error to figure this last part out...
In any case, I used the latest Magisk module (if you check the details of the modules, it'll show when it was last updated). If anything, supposedly you could just install straight away, but V4A gave me errors. I had to uninstall the existing V4A, reboot, install via Magisk module, and reboot before it worked. You (@Cowbell_Guy) might, at the very least, have to walk through the same steps for whatever reason...
Hope this helps...

[q] Gpay on lineage 19.1

Hey guys, has anyone gotten Gpay to work on lineage 19.1? I have done the following and have had very odd results. Firstly, I am passing safteynet and my device is registered as play certified in Google play store. I'm seeing where sometimes gpay won't open at all and when it does it says it is unable to load my payment methods.
Specs:
OS - linageOS 19.1 (latest build as of this post)
GAPPS - Mindthegapps (latest build as of this post)
Steps taken:
Installed magisk, enabled zygisk and rebooted
Installed magisk hide props module then rebooted
Installed shamiko module then rebooted
Installed universal safteynet fix (zygisk) then rebooted
Configured denylist in magisk checking GPS (all), and Gpay (all) rebooted
Changed device fingerprint with magisk hide props module to a certified one then rebooted
Additional steps taken:
I cleared data from GPS, play store and Gpay and rebooted
I tried a different device fingerprint and rebooted (clearing data like above afterwards and rebooting again)
I have done a complete fresh install of my OS and tried again from scratch.
I also tried seeing is renaming magisk would help at all, it didn't
It appears I'm getting nowhere with this. If anyone has gotten it to work and has some insight it's be greatly appreciated!
Nevermind, looks like it was an issue from having the pixelify module installed as well. After I removed it it started working just fine.

Hey deathblade!
Thanks for helping me out on the other thread.
Just wanted to check in, did you use the official build or the unofficial one with the Pixel Goodies? I'm intending/hoping to have full functionalities of Google Pay using the unofficial build, but from your post it seems that I can't have the Pixel experience if I want the ROM to work with Google Pay?

I'm using the official build. I think the unofficial has everything needed to use Gpay and have some pixel things baked in. So might be worth a look in your case

I just remembered, the unofficial is setup to pass safteynet out the box, but more maybe needed for Gpay to work. Once you flash it try it out, if you run into issues I can provide what I did to get Gpay working

Not that I've found, however I did notice if you install the pixelify module then uninstall it, it does seem to leave some stuff behind. Like I still have the option to use Hold for me and direct my call. So it might work out where you can install it to get the things you want then remove it to get Gpay working

Nope now playing is still there. I really only used it the module to force call screening to show up. But I have pretty much everything I remember from stock plus a few phone related goodies. I never tried the unofficial build but on the official I do not have that issue

Just also wanted to clarify in the case I decide to install magisk, which module do you install exactly? All of them? Zygisk/hide props module/shamiko/universal safetynet fix?

Ok so here is the breakdown:
Zygisk is not a module, but an implementation method used by modules. Magiskhide props is used to change the device fingerprint to a valid one that registers as protected by google play. Shamiko is for hiding root from Google play services, and Gpay (and whatever other apps may need it). Universal safteynet fix is used to help pass google safteynet checks (security). Not listed is the pixelify module used to add pixel exclusive features but of course with it install it cause havoc on Gpay and other apps so once installed it should be uninstalled.
TLDR
Yes all of them

Nope, I didn't. Other than the modules to hide from banking apps as mentioned above, I installed a pixel launch module here to make it for pixel-like: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-mod-pixel-launcher.4442077/
Other than that nothing else.
It doesn't;t work in the sense that it does not pick up music, even popular ones. The settings are there though, I can see them. It just doesn't identify any songs
