Select on the APN/Wifi and add proxy 123.1.1.1:8080 thats all to block the ads
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] nickname_marco:
What do you think is the best option for non rooted phone then?
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] jpbl1976:
Adguard. It works great. For best results, pay for the premium service so it blocks ads even in apps.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] iko11:
How do you set this screenshot please :)
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] nickname_marco:
oh yeah, now i can confirm it: i am testing the premium features and i am def going to buy it. no weird battery drain either.

Adguard is great, but the running vpn notification is annoying. How to disable it?
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] jpbl1976:
I don't think you can do that natively. It might be possible via an xposed module but you need to be rooted.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] nickname_marco:
On my note 5 I used to disable what they define "notification icon" in the app settings but found that the os tends often to quit adguard.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] ppppssss1227:
Xposed + minmin guard is excellent .
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] mezdroid:
best for non rooted is adguard. outside play store. with annual subscription but it does block ads from browsers and apps.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] mezdroid:
All Internet data you really using, it counts under adguard, it's like a gate and that's why u see a huge data usage under this app.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] fkofilee:
Adaway all the way .
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] jpbl1976:
Yes. That's correct. Plus it only removes the adguard notification itself, not the VPN notification which I believe is an Android System notification.

Having said that, I am on the latest adguard beta and switched off the main notification (i.e. the AS VPN notification is still present but the filtering content notification is off).

It's been around 20 hours since I did it and adguard hasn't been quit by Android yet.
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] mabmed:
Any way to hide this vpn notification!

using Mozilla with adblocker plus and works great.

(The VPN setting so as to block ads without using any additional software)
[Galaxy Note5 Themes and Apps] jpbl1976:
The VPN notification is part of the android system, NOT Adguard. What Adguard enables you to remove is just the one that says connections are being filtered.

You just have to live with it unless you root and install an Xposed module. Even then, would you really want to? You'd lost not just this one but other Android System notifications. Not a good idea.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

Were any of you able to get the lifetime Adguard subscription? It's pretty awesome. Only 40 bucks but the deal expired a day ago, I think -- but it could be back. Watch out for it. It was on StackSocial.

The license is for two Android devices simultaneously plus your PC and Mac. You receive a license code that you can use on two Android devices. If you have a new device, you can transfer the code to your new Android device -- but you have to untether one of your old devices from your Adguard account first. Not much of a hassle, actually.

The price was usually around 160 dollars, if I recall correctly.

[Android Apps and Games] Loxela:
New and unique gameplay – that is what all want!

To date, the mobile gaming industry to a huge regret seen a tendency to copy. Every week we are bombarded with clones of well-known games. So every game with a new and unusual gameplay seems like a bright flash.

Thus, our company found its goal - to create interesting games with, most important, game mechanics not seen before. So, we want to present our first creature - an arcade "Running Ball".

My name is Alexander and I am a founder of "Loxela". Long time I was closely watching for the game development industry, especially for mobile game development. I download and try every new mobile indie game in search of new experiences and inspiration. Unfortunately only 2-3 games a month turnes out to be really exciting. Having no opportunity to play interesting games, I decided to create them by myself. Relying on my own strength, I began to develop "Running Ball". To be honest - the most difficult moment in the game is just the same to create a unique gameplay. Also an important feature of a mobile game is the mobility itself. Therefore, a game should not punish a player for his desire to drink tea or if it's time to leave the train in the subway. Now I understand why the mobile gaming market is flooded with clones, but it only means that the objectives set by me are much higher than most developer’s goals. My dream - creating games that everyone will want to play just because they had never seen this before. And I hope that the "Running Ball" will be the first step on this path.

The essence of the game is simple: there is a ball and in its way are the walls with gates. When a player doesn’t touch the screen, the ball flies safely from one edge to the other, but when he presses, the ball rushes forward and o-ho-ho if its path would be the wall. You have to be very careful, because the slightest mistake – and you will start all over again. The game includes different skins for the ball, and not just skins - these are favorite online balls from the famous comic “CountryBalls”. If you want to know more about the game - you can download it ))

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reiswigphoto:
I know this has been a debate for years and years. Do I go with this, but I heard that and what if....

blah blah blah.

I have a film protector on my note 10.1 2014 and one on my note 8, they've been on there for so long I have no idea which ones I purchased. I recently picked one up for my tab S2 and it's juuuuunk! fingerprints galore. Getting on with this, I bought for the first time tempered glass for my phone and loved it. I don't believe tempered will take away from the amoled screen of the S2 but if I were to pick up a stylus (currently reading great reviews about the The Friendly Swede precision disc) will it take away accuracy? I believe the fingerprint issue is drastically decreased as well.

I'm all ears to experiences and opinions.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hwaiting:
Sorry, don't have an answer but do you mind sharing which tempered one you got? I've never gotten a tempered glass one before but everyone who has gotten one seems to say they will never go back to PET film. There are hardly any screen protectors out there at all it seems...maybe it's still too early. I'm getting my tablet today and want to get a screen protector on this soon.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kms108:
I'm using a glass screen protector for my S2 8.0, and as said, once you use one, there is no returning back to a PET film, glass protector for the S2 is rather limited at the moment, as the market is still small, I have searched through thousands of shops in china for a glass protector for the S2 8.0, and found many, but what is on offer is not what I want, all the protectors sold are flat edged, and 2.5D curved edged are very hard to find, although I did managed to find one shop and purchased 3 pieces.

Glass protectors from china are cheap and as most people will say, they are totally crap, I paid approximate USD 3.15 each for them, they do provide the basic protection from scratches and most protection against damaging the main screen, and that's what matter. For better quality one's, consider going to Gmarket a Korean base site owned by Ebay has some Korean made one's, but rather expensive and they do ship oversea.

At the OP's I'm sorry as I can't quote you on about the stylus, as I don't use them, but I sure it's better than the PET films and it does not affect my touch screen.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reiswigphoto:
I've narrowed my choices down to two. The first one is from Skinomi. I originally purchased one for the the tab 8.4 and when I decided to go with the S2 I simply returned it and they were awesome via amazon. I am kicking myself that I never actually opened it to inspect the glass. I've read that some do have a curved edge and some don't. Here's the link to that one:

http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi-Tech-...=8-11&keywords=galaxy+tab+s2+screen+protector

the other in the running is here, which it has a lot more reviews but I wonder how many are those fake reviews that are going around amazon. (the merchant provides a free product in exchange for reviews):

I purchased the Skinomi and was pleased with how quickly I installed it. I have no bubbles or particles and it is pretty much flush with the bezel. The button is now slightly recessed below it, but that will happen with all of the glass protectors. I *think* it's rounded because the edges around the button are so smooth. Clarity is excellent and the device is no less responsive. At this point I recommend it.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
Screen protectors are superfluous and mar the whole experience. Sony recognized that - while the Z series had screen protectors by default, they fortunately removed them in the Z2 series.

It's simple: When you want to transport the device, put a cover/case on it (the Samsung one is fine).

Otherwise use it naked as intended by nature. :)

TWRP Recovery for M4 Aqua (No gui, command line only)

This is for E2303 I didn't test on other models, feel free to do so but I take no responsibility whatsoever if anything happens

This will disable OTA updates, if you want them back you can flash the FOTA kernel with FlashTool​

Confrmed to be working on those variants:

E2303, E2306, E2333, E2353, E2363

Ok here it is thanks to @jeffreyvh kernel we can finally flash zips however we have 3 catches:

1. No GUI (Sony's fault until they provide full sources for our phones, we're stuck here)

2. You have to mount /system, /data and /cache manually (Working on it)

3. No external SD card support (working on it)

No problem? Cool..

Ok here's how to do it:

0. You need unlocked bootloader <-- Click here to see how

1. Download the recovery.img

2. Flash the recovery file with fastboot

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

3. Pull the cable turning off your phone.

4. Press the power button + volume down, when the phone vibrates, press the volume down button repetedly.

5. The Sony logo will disappear and you'll get a black screen (It's okay, congrats you've now booted twrp)

Now for the magic:

Connect your cable, make sure you have ADB and drivers installed.

In your terminal or dos window type:

adb shell

you'll get a prompt like ~ #

type these three commands:

mount -w /dev/block/platform/7824900.sdhci/by-name/system /system
mount -w /dev/block/platform/7824900.sdhci/by-name/userdata /data
mount -w /dev/block/platform/7824900.sdhci/by-name/cache /cache

Now that you have the partition mounted you can flash your zip files:

We don't have external SD card support so for now we're going to stick with sideload

type:

twrp sideload

adb shell will exit, it's okay now we can install the zip file like this:

adb sideload <path_to_zip>

path to zip on your computer without the < >

so if you downloaded superSU on C:DownloadsSuperSU.zip

you type

adb sideload C:DownloadsSuperSU.zip

when you're done type:

adb reboot

and pull the cable

For Rooting:

Download SuperSU flashable zip from here https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU

and flash it like explained before

good luck :)

meens this after rooting the phone don't support an sd-card any more?

mount -w /dev/block/platform/7824900.sdhci/by-name/cache /cache

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] husam666:
yes, no reason not to, this will only disable OTA updates since the recovery on sony devices is the FOTA kernel

so it means if there is a newer software update i cannot install it ???????? is that it ?? even with sony pc companion ??
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] husam666:
Done, thanks for pointing that out

I think it can work with the PC companion, you can also reflash the FOTA kernel with FlashTool, and you also can flash the whole new firmware with FlashTool
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] kpbs92:
So this can be applied with any firmware 2.99 and before.. ?? And also should my phone bootloader unlocked before doing this ??
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] husam666:
it should
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] kpbs92:
And what about bootloader ??? unlocked before doing this ??
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Flamenawer:
In the recovery.zip, is there a kernel compilated for you? or is only a recovery.

Because if is only a recovery that work with any kernel, maybe we can make a prerooted firm.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] husam666:
There is a kernel, that's not fully complete, that's why we don't have screen support, I tried it with stock kernel but didn't work, you can make a prerooted firmware I believe I just don't have time to try it
