geeteam Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hello quite recently, I installed adguard for Android on my HTC ONE M8 running Google Play Edition (GPE) ROM Android 6.0 with March Security update. Everything is working pretty well until I noticed adguard is 'eating' my data which is quite unusual because I don't expect adguard to be 'eating' my data for no reason. If i understand right, Adguard is just a tunnel i pass through to access the internet, filtering and blocking 'useless' stuffs like what its supposed to do, but why all of a sudden the data usage? Here is a shot of what I have described above Please I need some help, any solution would be much appreciated. Thank you Geeteam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not noticed any actual decrease in my battery life with adguard, it still lasts two full days. I never check data usage because I have unlimited 4G.

I need some explanation or a quick fix on how it's exhausting my data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Best Solution is to Keep Updating it Then..Keep Watching Here For Updates and For Other Premium APK's Edit:One More Thing to Do is to Compress Your Data Usage Using (Opera Max) Search The Play Store for That..I Never Tried it My Self But Alot of PPL Says it's Pretty Good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
