Automatic/manual mode switching ?

Hello,

In the brief tutorial contained in this module it says we can switch from auto to manual "by clicking on the blue button".

But I see just three tabs: Auto, Blacklist and Whitelist. I don't want to simply block ALL ads (as done in Auto mode) because I would like to reward some developers, so firstly I need a way to put the module in that mentioned "Manual" mode and only then start selecting the apps which I will whitelist.

How can one do that ?

Thanks in advance for any help.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
Whitelist and blacklist are your manual mode. Blacklist allows all ads, except the apps you choose; whitelist is the opposite: all ad-apps are blocked except the apps you choose.
[Xposed Framework Modules] thecoolkid:
I know it's confusing, but it's actually the other way around:

whitelist:

You enable the apps to block ads in.

blacklist:

You enable the apps that you don't want to block ads in.
[Xposed Framework Modules] stiggerby:
Are you sure?
[Xposed Framework Modules] thecoolkid:
Yes, you treat it like a setting for ad-blocking filter. For whitelist you enable apps to apply blocking filter and for blacklist you enable apps to prevent blocking filter to be applied.

Why is this not updated anymore? Are ad-blocking apps/modules not anymore supported or allowed in XDA?
[Xposed Framework Modules] stiggerby:
It would be great to see this module leading the way.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcdw:
Has nothing to do with XDA or ad-blocking. A lot of modules just haven't been updated since Marshmallow. Devs have just stalled, called it quits, moved on to other things, or just put life/family/work first.

That's the nature of things. Most of it is a hobby or pastime after all. I do miss some of my favorite modules but, oh well.

I think the fact that we waited so long for xposed for Nougat and Oreo plays a role in it too... I just wish dearly that someone talented would step in and pick up the pieces

MinMinGuard 2.0.1 alpha1 works with Virtual Xposed

Hi, I just uploaded MinMinGuard 2.0.1 alpha1 with features as follow:

- works with Virtual Xposed (by removing resource hook)

- compile against sdk27

- fix some bug which may cause app crashed

NOTE: this is a alpha version, so I put it in the experimental channel. configuration bugs are expected
[Xposed Framework Modules] andrepgaspar:
Good to see MMG still being developed (my favorite adblock)
[Xposed Framework Modules] realtobman:
Hi thanks for your work and passion, does this work with Google play store or Gmail app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
No, instead of using ad network api (AdMob for example), google's apps use their own customized api. Customizations are needed for those apps.
[Xposed Framework Modules] exodius48:
Why not customize MMG to suppport google apps?
[Xposed Framework Modules] 4512369781:
Hi, my mobile phone is JB4.2. After updating 2.0.1 alpha1, it can be used normally. However, after opening or closing an application in the blacklist, or switching url filtering, the module will not work at all. Only restart to resume work.

Is this the "configuration bugs" you mentioned?

Another problem is that the save settings will crash. The log says "tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard.ui.MainActivity-Alias does not exist in tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard".
[Xposed Framework Modules] s--c:
Is this update not in xposed repo? It's not showing up. I have experimental showing up.
[Xposed Framework Modules] b0rnc0nfuz3d:
where is this version? i have experimental channel enabled but the only version i see is 2.0 beta5 which essentially doesnt work.

where is the alpha version mentioned in this post?
[Xposed Framework Modules] andrepgaspar:
For me it shows up!!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] s--c:
Strange not for me. I installed manually. On stock rooted latest Android. Crashes alot. So I'll wait for stable release.

Edit: Is minminguard supposed to get rid of spaces where ads should be. When I used it they are still present for example in chrome browser. The ads are blocked but space is not hidden

I installed and tested version 2.0.1 (stable and beta), both versions don't work correctly, in fact they don't work at all.

I don't add Xposed's log, because there is not error in the registry.

I have reinstalled version 2.0 beta 5, and it's working correctly again.

I'm on Android 7.0, with MIUI 9.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
Yeah, I also tested it and already fixed it( Along as the performance issue when handling mass webviews ). I will publish new version in a few hours. Thanks for testing:D

ps: Is there any ads inside gReader? I didn't see ads. BTW, you can opt-in/opt-out inside MinMinGuard without reboot.
[Xposed Framework Modules] BillG24:
Hello FatMinMin,

I fully support Enkidu. I can't write such a great app myself, so I'm happy if there are people like you sharing their work with the community. Even if you create the app because of the fun you may have writing software, you still invest your time. You also have to "fight" with noob's like me who possibly ask boring questions or request more features. So I really would like to donate. If you don't want to take the money for yourself, you still can buy something for your beloved ones or forward it to an organization you want to support. So my request to you, please open a PayPal account and add a Donate button here :)

Keep up the good work

Brgds BillG24
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jimmy34742:
I tried that, but it didn't work, so I disabled the module and rebooted. Perhaps I should have waited a little longer, or perhaps gReader had cached something even though I thought I reloaded.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
You have to restart the app which you want to change the blocking policy.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
Check version 1.2.0. It should work for you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] prboy1969:
@FatMinMin nice work. Really liking this :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] BenniXmile:
"Kamusku" still show empty field
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
I just tested that app. The reason why the space is still remain is since after I remove the space. The app will automatic test if there is no ad loaded, the app will replace that place with an image. For now, it seems to be hard to remove that space with a general solution. (This problem can be done by customized hacking this app. But I think customization for each app is not a good way for this app.)
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
I have tested by using AdAway and AdBlock to block the ad inside skype. But it doesn't work. It seems like skype use non-standard way to create the ad. And I use the host file from AdAway to do url filtering. So if the ad url is not on AdAway's list, I can not detect it either...really sorry for that.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
Check version 1.2.0. It's not there when I test it. And I think it should work in the beginning version of MinMinGuard. Cause Link2SD use standard admob api call...I am not really sure. But MinMinGuard version 1.2.0 works for me.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SecUpwN:
Best choice is the F-Droid-Store. Apps like AdAway are now there, they don't restrict. Would be happy to find your module there too, [MENTION=4981793]FatMinMin[/MENTION]. I also continually update the repositories from F-Droid. Keep up your patience with people. ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] 16BitRun:
Thanks for the update. Of course I will support the free app developers. I'm really big in donating money or purchasing a donation version. Thanks again for your continued efforts.

[Xposed Framework Modules] The Chief:
Good work, thanks a lot!
[Xposed Framework Modules] power2top:
"Coupling" means to be tied to or be dependent on these apps like Adaway, AdBlock etc for providing MinMin with restriction URLs as the First Post of this thread mentions. MinMin must have an independent support for URL Pattern blocking. Hope it now clarifies :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
It seems like that two empty area never load ads that's why I cannot detect it and remove it. I don't know why they made that area. Does that areas ever show ads to you?
[Xposed Framework Modules] FatMinMin:
I understand now! Maybe my explanation in the main thread is not very clear. MinMInGuard doesn't depend on other program to work. My approach is totally different from adaway and adblock. I just take the ad url list such as this from adaway as a way to detect if a webview is an ad. AdAway use that file to replace the hostfile to redirect packets which is totally differently from MinMinGuard.

Thanks lot for thinking new idea!!!

This is the url list I use now.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Portgas D. Ace:
I am not sure if a log file might help in this case, but your post doesn't contain enough relevant information (device, Android version, Xposed version, MinMinGuard version) to help you here.

A little OT here: why do you use this file explorer? Other file explorers are around with no ads and even better functionality (MiXplorer for example).
[Xposed Framework Modules] Pathania08:
MinMinGuard Version is 2.0.1 and my device is running on AEX ROM and rest of the details are in the screenshot.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Portgas D. Ace:
I assume you are rooted, right? In this case, you might want to use a firewall app to block all network connections for ES File Explorer and check if this will block those ads. In addition, the use of a host file-based ad blocker like AdAway can also help you out here.

I use the combination of AFWall+ & AdAway & MinMinGuard since several years and haven't seen ads on my mobile devices since ever.

Sorry for the unstability for 2.0.1. The reason is cause from newer Android sdk forbidden the usage of WORLD_READABLE shared preference and that cause MinMinGuard does not work for some people.

I recommend using a previous version. v2.0b5

workaround:

Changes file permissions on a filer or shell command.

(Required root. e.g. Root Explorer, Solid Explorer, MiXplorer etc)

** Resets each time you change settings on MinMinGuard app **

/data/data/tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard/shared_prefs/ModSettings.xml
660 -> 664

Directory permission changes may be required in some environments.

/data/data/tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard
700 -> 701

for example, Root Explorer

Go to target directory "/data/data/tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard/shared_prefs"

Long tap "ModSettings.xml"

Open the menu (top right three dots), and tap 'Permissions'

Changes file permissions, and tap 'OK'
