[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Hi folks,

based on the keweonDNS filter lists I have created a HOSTS file. At the moment it has a huge size but I guess during the next weeks together we can size it down.

This file contains the most common things and I guess with your help it will be optimized. Facebook, Amazon and all the other things are working.

Support:

If you see something wrong or if you have additional things than use the almost know method for this. Put this things into a TXT file and post it to me:

For Whitelist an address send the TXT file to this address:

whiteli.g2o05glywjqt8zfy@u.box.com

For Blacklist an address send the TXT file to this address:

blackli.wovqusywx173aog9@u.box.com

keweonDNS:

A lot of mobile users prefer to use HOSTS file instead of using a different DNS Server. Since Google (also Apple) has removed the option to change the DNS Servers it's a real chaos to change the DNS Servers.

The HOSTS file is working but it's not as flexible as my DNS solution. I don't recommend to use DNS settings and the HOSTS file on the same device because it will overwrite my DNS settings. If I would extract the entire database to a "HOSTS" file this would have a size of 5.6 GB. Don't expect the same result with my DNS servers. But the basics are covered by my HOSTS files.

Limitations:

The "hosts keweon.zip" file has by default the address with 5.189.169.177 which is also allmost know as keweon termination address. If you like it and you have already download the keweon root certificate it stop all HTTPS errors caused by adblock. If you want to download it than go to http://pki.keweon.center and install it. Just visit the site and the download happens after 3 seconds. If you would like to use your own IP address or 127.0.0.1 than feel so free and use the "hosts 127-0-0-1.zip" file. By default it's the "127.0.0.1" IP Address. If you want to change it than do it.

Both files has the exact same content except the IP address. The keweon DNS Servers are 100times stronger than any HOSTS file. To offer the same security by a simple HOSTS file compared to my DNS server is not possible.

Terms of persmission:

Do whatever you want to do. I don't care if you share it, use it, modify it or even if you download and sell it to someone.

ROM Dev's Terms & Permissions::

If you want to use it than use it. If you want to build in the keweon Root Certificate, just do it. If you do this please inform within the ROM download that the keweon Root Certificate is build in into the ROM.

Help and Support::

If you can offer an share for the keweon HOSTS file than let me know this. Would be great if users can download the file by WGET. This will make the procedure for update very easy for them and for the DEV's.

If you have a full access to the server I'm able to grant you access to my home server wherer you can get this file as a daily base. WGET it daily over night. Cool thing ;)

If you have questions, recommendations or anything like this than let me know this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Here you will find the actual HOSTS file.

Both files have the exact same content except the IP Address.

Update happens at:

Date: 2018-05-14

Time: 20:36 (GMT+ 1 - Germany)

File size 127.0.0.1 (hosts.zip): 6.065.995 Bytes

File size keweon (hosts-keweon.zip): 6.783.003 Bytes

Enjoy this!

Optimized

During the night I have done an optimization.

Reduced by half of the size compared to the very first version.

I guess this will do it!

Enjoy it! :good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
It would be great to get a short feeback if it's working or not.

Are you interested that I continue this Project?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I have had try to used this file on a Windows 10 Computer with SSD and 30GB RAM.

After 10 Minutes I decided to start the recovery console and deleted the file to have Internet access.

I try to reduce this file but this would become a hard game.

Now I know again why I have developed my DNS solution. ?

Why the hell Apple and Google have had removed the option to change the DNS? To prevent wrong configured devices is a bullsh*t!!! I'm so pi**ed about this.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
This files contains only TXT files. Both files manipulates Internet hosts and from this point of view this alert is absulut OK.

If a Virus or something else try to change your hosts files than the AV Tool should becomes active. That's the reason why you see it as "trojan.hosts32.gen".

That means translated that something is trying to manipulate your hosts file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
After the report from [MENTION=4276472]D-dy[/MENTION] about VT alert I have double checked it.

The problem causes not the hosts file. The problem is the IP address. Good thing.

That would mean that they have NO URL's build-in into this AV-Tools.

If you change the 127.0.0.1 HOSTS file manually to the IP Address 5.189.169.177 than you will receive the same error. I have had checked this file with VT and I have received no alert. That means it's the IP Address.

And this IP Address (5.189.169.177) belongs to me. Only to me and it's not a shared IP Address.

This Server is responsible to terminates ANY unwanted data transmision from your hosts and to your hosts. This Server is also responsible that the keweon Adblock Certificate terminates any HTTPS error message caused by Adblock.

At the moment I'm within the Office and I can't test what happens if you change my IP Address with any other public IP address. But I guess it will cause the same result if you change the 127.0.0.1 to any other public IP Address.

From this point this allert is OK because my Server (5.189.169.177) is not listed as a trusted system or something like that within any AV Tool. I guess it's only a question of money and the need to certify my systems by Kaspersky & others.

If you don't trust this file or me than feel so free and don't use this file if you have a bad feeling. At the moment I can only promise to you that this is an absolute 100% safe and secure IP address.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D-dy:
Gud job, thx Sir :highfive: :good: :D

ashley, i already got this error report from other ads block host (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1916098), i has checked that moaAB on VT. Well., maybe on that thread is an answer but never checked.

So, i think why not trying ur host, then checked on VT too, weww same error :eek:

But now, its clear... that error not from host file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
Reduced the file size and it's almost optimized.

No clue if it's good enough but I hope it will work as it should.

Enjoy it!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] D-dy:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I will double check it. In addition I have found a view other things which will not covered by the HOSTS file and I will create a extra Database for this.

It's hard to find the right balance for this. ;)

Thanks a lot!

What's the DNS provider hostname of KeweonDNS to be used for Private DNS Mode on Android Pie?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
That's "DNS over TLS" what you want to setup. Because of the limitied traffic I have currently I can't enable this.

In addition it would need a lot of RAM and CPU on each of the DNS Server which is not payable for me.

I would - but I can't ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Quantumizer:
I tried Intra with Keweon but still saw a few ads here and there. That's why I am currently using PDF with Keweon and it's working perfectly for me.

I am using main server I and Amsterdam.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrT69:
I have troubles with DoH on my Servers. They don't work with URL but only with IPAddress.

This drives me crazy. I have tried it with Apache, NGINX, Caddy and direct. Always the same troubles. No idea why.

I hope you will figure out a solution soon.

Keep up the good work :good:

It's always worked until last update. I even flashed stock, then went through all the steps for a second time with the same result. Just thought I would ask, because I am honestly lost on what it would be.

I tried multiple cords as well, still no fix.

Is it possible to update monthly Factory Images without wiping system and data? I need only bootloader, vendor and radio. Or we just flash full package without "-w" option in command line and then flash ROM+TWRP again?

Can someone post step-by-step, please.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] fkfmfz:
yes, if you are on this rom... grab what you need from the google official zip, vendor, radio, bootloader. To update clean, wipe cache, system and data. now flash the rom zip, twrp, and reboot. go thru setup and reboot to twrp and flash the vendor img and reboot. Now to just update the rom dirty flash, wipe cache and system, flash rom zip and twrp, reboot. flash vendor img if needed. The radio and bootloader you can adb those via fastboot

Remove any passwords or pin before going to TWRP
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] oo0:
had a bootloop accidently. not sure, maybe after power off it changed slots and i didn't notice.

so if you have bootloop and password activated you can end up with your sdcard encrypted/gone. guess it could be added to your flash guide on a first page for other users, just in case. and, maybe, a workaround if you accidently bootlooped with password on and have to reflash the rom from twrp without being able to remove pattern/pin

thank you
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] fkfmfz:
Just keep in mind, any time you go in to twrp to flash anything make sure any passwords/or pins are disabled and your data will not encrypt.

now with latest ROM version Google Services Framework bug appeared (

Clean install, June full image flash-all.bat

wipe dalvik/cache/system/data

wipe dalvik/data and dalvik only, install rom - same thing

installed separately vendor, bootloader and radio to slot A and then slot B - no go

downgraded to may patch, then april patch and reflashed a dozen times - same error all the time

only thing i havent tried - flash version 3.9 and then upgrade to 4.0 after initial setup, but it's not available. for now out of options, please help
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] fkfmfz:
I always clean flash and don't have those problems, but I don't restore from cloud backup either. Did you try to clear the app data and cache?
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] oo0:
Yes, all possible variations and reflash after. App data, cache. System and all over. Clean flash after Google full package zip install (flash-all.bat).

I even can't get to cloud backup, Google Framework error doesn't let me through the first setup screen

Maybe you can share earlier version like 3.7 or 3.9? Only 4.0 is available. I could install the one, that was definitely working and then upgrade to 4.0 after setup finished

Hey there,

I'm on AquariOS atm with encrypted Data and want to try Nephilim without loosing my sd encryption. Why exactly do I have to remove my password for flashing nephilim? My TWRP decrypts fine on my device.

On the other hand I have a feature/ function related question:

Does WiFiCall work with nephilim?

My provider supports WiFiCall but for any reason, I can't use it with the walleye (it worked fine with my previous device). And I really liked that feature.

Is there any way to keep my stuff while changing AquariOS to Nephilim?

I have a daily backup of my SDCard and my Data Partition available.

Best regards

I think it's hit or miss on the encrypt part of twrp. I can get into twrp no problem with leaving my lockscreen passcode. But at the same time on other versions of this rom I've had to remove it to get into twrp.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] MKRashka:
I can't loose anything, so I'll give it a try ?

Anyone tried WiFi call with German Telefonica O2?

[MENTION=2564710]fkfmfz[/MENTION]

Are you able to activate WiFi call for my provider if I give you the MCC & MNC?

if yes:

MCC 262

MNC 07

Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] JRJ442:
I think if you don't remove the pin or pattern, it could trip up FRP. I had it happen with me. It's a headache. You won't lose anything by removing lockscreen security before the flash. So you're better off to do it and save some hassle.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] MKRashka:
ok, I'm on latest nephilim now ;)

looks good, but I didn't like Launcher 3 & the Icon Set. so switched back to Nova.

first intention is very good, but I'm still on setting up my app backups.

There is one feature I miss because I used it very often:

in AquariOS I could record a screenvideo from the QS. Has anyone an idea how to manually install something like that without using DUrecorder or any other 3rd party app?

Day 3 and I'm not sure if I like the battery.... unplugged from charger at 6 am, after 7 hours I have 61 % left. With my last rom, same usage as today, I replugged at ~11:45 pm with 35-40 % left. With heavy use after work (from 6pm till I replug). The roms new, so I'll let him find his way for a few more days.

Two things I miss:

- No WiFi Call option in settings (Provider is O2 Telefonica germany, MCC 262 MNC 07)

- Would it be possible to integrate a screencapture feature with qs tile (like in AquariOS)? I would realy appreciate it!

best regards

Rashka
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] FilthyFord:
So if I'm reading this correctly, you got 18 hours on your battery and it only was drained to 35-40 percent (From 6am-11:45pm ). I don't know, that seems pretty good to me. How much more time are you looking for?
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] MKRashka:
With stock rom, and also with AquariOS, i had that.

Now with Nephilim, it is 6:18 pm and I'm on 40% with regular use.

So I'd say that it was better before ?

But it's the first day with regular use, tried a lot the last two days. So I will give it a week to get used to me.

[edit]

after 6 days of using, I got my old battery life back.

35-40% battery after 17-18 hours of usage, including

1 hour videos with newpipe

2 hours spotify (with bt headset)

7-10 photos

1-1,5 hours surfing with Chrome

45 minutes call

Display @ 30%

Smart Pixel @ 50%

AoD active

Galaxy gear S3 permanent bt connection

So I'm very lucky with this room with one exception:

WiFi call is missing

Will it be available in future versions?

We have really bad connection in office and wifi call is a really great feature for cases like this.

No, the problem is, that wifi call is not active in pixel 2,if you are on Telefonica O2.

O2 started to support wifi call ~9 months ago. I used it with my xperia xz on stock rom and I used it with the Walleye on AquariOS Rom. The Dev of AquariOS activated it for o2 Germany.

Now I need it to be active on nephilim :)
