Thanks for this mod. Just tried it today.

but ever since I flashed it my device (galaxy nexus) has slowed down and the internet is way slower.

I am trying to troubleshoot. not saying it is because of this mod but I am investigating.

has anyone had their device and/or internet connection slow down because of this?

Thanks

EDIT: Uninstalled :(

Sorry, but this mod will slow your device and loading pages.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JustArchi:
I made my own research today and sorry but I can't agree with you. Your method slows down network MUCH.

Let's check how much it affects a classic medium-range device, Samsung Galaxy S3 with 4x 1600 MHz CPUs, 1 GB of RAM, CyanogenMod 11.

a) Your hosts method

Conclusion: Android doesn't use any cache. Every request, regardless of type, must go through whole hosts file prior to be resolved. Resolving this file on SGS3 takes around 2 seconds. Moreover, if entry is not contained in the hosts file, additionally, a DNS lookup is performed, which costs another 2 seconds, giving around 4 seconds in total.

b) ArchiDroid dnsmasq method with your hosts

Explanation: My method sets up local dns server on 127.0.0.1 - dnsmasq, and fills it with initial hosts in cache based on your full hosts file. Then, it proxies all DNS requests to 127.0.0.1. If local DNS server doesn't know about an entry, it asks upstream servers (google dns and opendns) and accepts fastest response. Notice: This takes around 80 MB of RAM due to size which is needed for such cache.

Conclusion: Due to local DNS server, we got instant result for a domain which exists in hosts file, and remote response in ~120 ms. It's not on the screenshot, but additional request for the same domain costs only 30 ms due to dnsmasq cache.

To sum up, if Android had any local cache for already fetched hosts, we could perhaps deal with the initial delay of fetching. However, it doesn't have such cache, and the overall effect is massive slowdown, a minimum of 4 seconds per "normal" request, which in sum of other network requests will give expensive 4-second slowdown. Not to mention that EVERY request results in 35 MB file read, which is really huge in terms of short flash eMMC internal memory life. After 10 requests we need to read around 350 megabytes, and average site has 20 or even more, various redirects, images, videos, analytics, javascripts, and everything else. Opening a few single web pages for sacrificing ~1 GB of file read is absolutely unacceptable.

Sorry but I can't suggest using such big hosts file nowadays. It really hurts after you see the consequences on your own eyes. If I were you, I'd consider giving users a choice between "condensed" adblocking and the rest :).

Cheers.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Primokorn:
I have also done a ping test with a Nexus 5. I sent 4 times a ping packet with 'xdaforums.com'

With the last ping packet I have 231ms with MoaAB and 193ms without it. Can I wait +38ms to check a host file and block ads? Of course I can :)

One of the advantages of this mod is the easy way of customization. Everybody can easily add or remove lines into the hosts file. Not sure if it is so handy for all users with your method.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BSDgeek_Jake:
Thanks for the detailed tests and results.

First, Please note that This is a Free Work for the Community and anyone is free to use (i am The Happiest One if you using my work) and free to throw away this work (i am not angry at all) but also can expect some level of optimization mutually agreed, within my work time and limits.

'hosts' file is the Only way you can contain CRAP directed from the internet to your device and within your device.

You can definitely use App Firewall or Xposed MODS for Per App Access Permissions... and blah blah blah. But RAM usage is much more high for them and Delay is always there in all the Apps. AND They are Apps... so you need to Install, Configure, Maintain, Upgrade and Backup them all the time. Anyways...

I am agreeing for the delay BUT I can accept 1-2 second of Delay rather that Apps Stealing my Contacts, Tracking Me, Reporting My Activities, Targetting My Device for FULL of ADs and Installing Java Classes without my knowledge.

I own 420 Paid Apps and i use Concurrently 10-15 Apps throughout the days but i still have 800MB RAM free and CPU usage is 40%-60% Tops. Android Memory Management is much more effecient that people assume and it can handle MoaAB for times to come.

Cheers.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JustArchi:
Can't agree with you.

I'm using my own advanced ad-blocking method in my ArchiDroid, and it works much better than any other method you can actually find, as it's actually a local DNS server, and it answers in miliseconds, while parsing hosts takes a few seconds, and around 35 MB file read, which effectively shortens your internal memory's life. I'm not criticizing your work, I say that it's not effective and the amount of delay and memory read cycles is much worse than extra 80 MB ram usage I'm having in my implementation. And I don't want to praise my own adblock, because it's specific and built-in in particular ROM. I'm just trying to say that every additional line in hosts file slows down network DRAMATICALLY, as android parses hosts file upon the every single request, and it causes a total disaster after you take a deeper look what's going on. Deal with it.

[MENTION=4958579]Primokorn[/MENTION] - you tested delay with time the ping returned, check my results again, you should measure a time since requesting a data, to actually receiving it. Ping is measuring the time ICMP packet will go through the network, it doesn't count the time device is resolving a hostname. Such test doesn't make any sense. If you want to get reliable results, use time in conjuction with network command, e.g. time ping -c 1 google.com.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zordak7:
And can you share that method? Sounds super druper cool :)

what's wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Primokorn:
Connection failed here with Firefox so it's correctly blocked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vel_tins:
It's only blocked, if I call the URL directly (paste it in the address bar).

If it's embedded in the website, it isn't blocked.

Try "heise.de" and look at the right column for this rotating ad (should be the last one):

Thanks

EDIT: On the PC it's blocked by ABP with the following filter rule:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vel_tins:
well, I don't know which Browser you use, but your screenshot doesn't show the "Desktop Version" of "heise.de" but the mobile version.

I tried the Desktop Version on three Androids (from 4.1 - 4.4) and both, Chrome as well as Stock browser show many ads, when requesting the Desktop Version.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Primokorn:
As stated above I'm using Firefox and here is what I have with the Desktop view.

It would be better to have other feedbacks because I also block connections through AFWall+. Maybe those ads are blocked via AF+.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vel_tins:
Well, after a few more quick tests, I can say that many things are blocked, but compared with Adblock Plus on the PC, there are lots of remaining ads on Android.

But ok, better than nothing. ;)

No problem at home, since I am running Privoxy on my Asus router, which blocks some more ads..

PS: These red marked ads on your screen shot doesn't appear using ABP.

Not working now

This is strange. I'm using an HTC One. Last week I flashed this and it was blocking ads just fine. At some point this week it stopped blocking all ads. I was trying to add custom entries to the hosts file but couldn't figure out how to do so. So to try to start over, I flashed your reset to stock zip. Rebooted. Then flashed the moab zip again and rebooted. But now it's not blocking any sites anymore. What happened?
