Myna Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 @vitorio I hope someone will be able to diagnose your issue. In the meantime, give Adhell a try. Adhell is an open source ad blocker for Samsung phones. Unlike every other ad blocker on the market, Adhell doesn't create a local vpn to filter ads. And it works system wide. So you can use Adhell along with any other vpn apps. It also has the ability to disable any app, including system apps. Last but not the least, it also works as a firewall. The app is totally free and open source. You can download the app/read more about it here - https://www.reddit.com/r/Adhell/ Jogs and vitorio 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADN Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 If I remember well, I installed v2.12.250 Stable and v3.0.241 Beta on a Samsung A7 both of them worked correctly. Which version did you try ? vitorio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Users (like me) who are keen to enjoy the new features that get introduced on Nightly builds overcome this issue by resorting to a dirty trick. If you are interested, I'll post the trick the next time I'm passing through here. BTW, Users who prefer stable builds have a new version that's just been released (build 297.)

dcs18 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 vitorio, Whenever, I find my Nightlies getting killed by Android, the following works great, for me:— (Navigate to) Settings >> Advanced >> Low Level Settings >> pref.root.set.oom_adj >> enable Please note, the above workaround is functional only on rooted droids — also, it should be resorted to, only and only if the issue being discussed on this topic is encountered (it is but a dirty trick.) There could be other more uncomplicated reasons why AdGuard gets killed by Android — one such being the Doze (Battery Optimization) from which AdGuard needs to be excluded . . . . . a setting which is located in completely different locations (depending on the device brand.) vitorio, jayesh30202, Jime234 and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
