Nexus 5 on Lollipop- webserver won't stay running

Start the webserver in Adaway, close Adaway and go back in and the webserver shows that it's not running.

SuperSU 2.20 and latest Busybox installed.

Would one want to uninstall adaway before installing the darken mod?
[Android Apps and Games] kingvortex:
The d4rken mod shouldn't be required any more, as the issue it was designed to fix has been fixed in the source a few versions back, as far as I'm aware.

Edit - This pull request should have fixed issues applying hosts. It certainly did for me.

It works on Nexus 7 2012 with lollipop factory images and superSU 2.20. I enabled it yesterday evening after doing CFautoroot boot img and finally getting root. Hosts were applied and it blocs ads after reboot.

Maybe try again.

It depends on SuperSU version AND busybox AND... Each device is different, each ROM have his logic, but as far I've read the culprit seems to be related to root on Lollipop.

[Android Apps and Games] Drifus Dreskeke:
AdAway is partially working here.

The rules and host file are ok but the webserver is not working - Nexus 5 and 9. Lollipop, superSU and BusyBox like yours.

Please, do a test: enable webserver, close AdAway, reopen it and check if webserver remains active.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Sebacestmoi:
I've got the stock lollipop ROM rooted with Chainfire Auto Root (SuperSU 2.20) and no Busybox.

The app download all hosts file and apply them correctly but when I go to a webpage or an app with ad they are still here.

I don't use the Reduce Data option of Chrome and I know that the app I've used to try AdAway got no ad when AdAway works.

So I really don't know what I've done wrong and what you've done right :(
[Android Apps and Games] Drifus Dreskeke:
Update the adaway rules, reboot your device, open adaway again and check if the host file is populated with the addresses generated by the rules.

What is your device?

If it is mobile, that issue occurs in both Wi-Fi and 3G/4G? Because your provider/APN may be configured with a proxy, bypassing your host file. You need to turn off that too.

Also, install BusyBox.
[Android Apps and Games] Sebacestmoi:

How can I solve this?
[Android Apps and Games] kingvortex:
The Play Store loads just fine on 3G for me, using all default host sources.

I suggest you try disabling AdAway altogether to see if that solves your issue. If it doesn't, then it isn't connected to AdAway. If it does, start looking at any other host sources you may be using as some of them block legitimate servers.

In AdAway,

Log DNS requests

Press the button that says "Tcpdump is not running" to start Tcpdump.

Exit AdAway and run your game until where ads should display.

Go back to AdAway in the Log DNS requests section, stop the Tcpdump and press "Open log file" to see what dns requests were made.

For the past few days I have been getting ads in 9gag (image view section, not main page) and File Manager even with AdAway (last version) enabled and updated. I tried to log the DNS requests but all I was getting in the list was (it seems) neutral hosts and I have no idea which to delete without breaking app usage.

Examples: api.9gag.com, appload.ingest.crittercism.com, a.akamaihd.net etc

The ads on 9gag have the AdChoices logo but I already have several entries in the hosts file.

The thing is, as far as I can tell those are the only two apps I'm getting ads. Could it be it's just the app themselves and not AdAway?

Can anyone try to test out those two with the latest AdAway version, at least to let me know if those apps are responsible or if there's something wrong with my setup? It's only been a few days since I started getting them, and I did not change anything in AdAway, so I guess maybe those ad services are using new hosts or something?

Edit: I started MinMinGuard (which also doesn't work with these two apps) and it shows the following:

9gag: Flurry and GmsDoubleClick

File Manager: GmsDoubleClick

Both exist in hosts file with multiple urls each.

As others have said make sure you have the latest version (2.3). Go to settings and FC the app. Clear cache and data from AdAway. Before opening AdAway again clear all cache from other apps/phone with something like Clean Master or App Manager. Once cleared reboot the phone, and then open AdAway. Download new host files. Reboot the phone. All should be good. I like to use App Manager since I use it for more things than just clearing cache, but any app that does that function should work.
