Thanks for this app... im just curious, how can i use this on windows pc?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
On Windows you don't download an app, just the block list, in the form of a HOSTS file (select ipv6 or txt on their website). Once downloaded you then open up Windows Explorer, drill down to Windows/system32/drivers/etc, and copy the file there. Accept any prompts that appear. Reboot, and you're updated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nastrahl:
And this is a very bad idea.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fatimarvin_15:
I tried to DL the txt file from energized website, then i edited the hosts file on said location using notepad, then pasted all the contents of the txt file from energized website to the windows host file. But after that even how many times i restart, what happen was its connected to our home wifi but no internet connection. Any help?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nastrahl:
That's why i said that it's a bad idea.

The DNS client needs to cache the file with all the hosts entries, and it takes forever. Until the caching is finished no connection can be made.

If you open the task manager you'll see that the DNS client service takes an unexpected amount of CPU, that's what happens during the caching process.

Once it stops you can connect again.

The caching process will be made at every reboot or DNS flush. So it's definitely annoying

The other drawback is that it takes a lot of RAM.

OK, what am I doing wrong. How to whitelist??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chrislee150:
Hello. I tried to submit an issue via the Energized box site but it seems to not be working anymore. I'm having trouble accessing library books through overdrive.com and its companion overdrive and Libby apps on Android. I'm using Energized Pro Ultimate. Let me know how can I have this on the whitelist? The digital books won't load and I can't "borrow" digital library books.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bo0gietrain:
Your device needs to be rooted. If it is, run su first so switch to root user in terminal then try your ep command.

Also, make sure you actually have the app installed first (easiest through magisk app)

I wonder how can I block the in-app ads but allow shopping redirect like the links from SlickDeals?

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nastyfingers:
I’ve found 3 domains that I’m not sure should be blocked

ch5.sc.omtrdc.net - this is the actual content and not the ads.

extremetech.com - I get why the stats and stuff are blocked but this seems ott

malezia.con - this guys makes and sells face cream. Drove my better half potty not being able to access it when I wasn’t around to whitelist.

cheers for the awesome work guys.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nicholes:
Is tere any way to pause energized??

I have already tried to disabe it from magics manager but it did not work.

hence this cannot not whitelist any specific app, I wonder this (Pause) may possible
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] immi:
I've followed almost all the instructions on this page, installed all the required software but still I don't know how to add Energised packes in this app and how to use it. Maybe the page does not contain clear enough instructions for a noob. My dnsquery sniffer is an empty window even after following correct steps, so can you guys please include a guide for that in your OP please.

Edit: dnsquery sniffer is working properly now. The only thing remains is how to add energized protection to this app and what format of a protection pack to use.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gallegonovato:
Good afternoon:

First of all thank you for all your work and help.

But the energized github lists. Or even the web have been down for many days.

I don't know if they will be reactivated or uploaded somewhere else. Or if they will work again in github or in your web.

Best regards

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BullHorn7:
There's an announcement in their Telegram group, their servers died and they're working to fix it or get alternative hosting.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Px80:
what is the difference between host.txt and HOSTS IPV6 in particular?

Do I need to add both filterlists?

Sorry for my silly question ^^

btw. i read on the homepage that the status is Inactive but github says it's active?

https://block.energized.pro/ultimate/formats/hosts.txt
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] andrea0807:
what is the best application to perform energized protection without root?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nastrahl:
The best would NextDNS with Android's native private DNS settings but it's a DNS service, because Energize is overkill.

Else, Blokada, AdGuard, RethinkDNS (not sure about the latest one).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Lownita:
I'm currently on Android 12 (MIUI 13) with nextdns set as custom DNS, the phone is losing connection to certain apps and services when leaving my wifi and switching to mobile network. Weird thing is that it's only for certain apps and can be fixed by turning custom DNS off and on again.

Any ideas for what could be the culprit here?

New Update!

18.06.167

- Merged Latest Sources.

- Huge Whitelist Included. (Unblocked many false calls!)

- All-In-One Magisk Module. Can be downloaded from here!

- Stay Energized!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] agraceful:
This is nothing more than adaway with more host files.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] badmojr:
There's more to hosts files than just AdAway.

Want an example? uBlock, Blokada, AdGuard, DNS66.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] agraceful:
No. You apparently don't understand. Adaway is an app that manages host files. All you did was list horrible ad blocking apps. This does the EXACT same thing by managing host files. Understand now bud?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
Well, that's the basic. As we mentioned, A MERGED COLLECTION OF HOSTS FROM REPUTABLE SOURCES.

And, we are not only limited to Android. We have different formats for different devices. Hope I have cleared things!

No, you proved my point. This is exactly what I said it was. Adaway with more host files. Hopefully you can do more with it, but it's very doubtful.

after installing windows bat file my internet stopped working completely. wifi shows connected but no internet connection. why is it like that ?

Uninstall hosts and disable DNScache reboot then apply hosts .

I have downloaded uninstall.bat but after running script its showing me The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process execution failed.

What should I do now?

could you tell me how to clear cache and uninstall please.

edit I tried clearing dns cache through CCleaner but it stuck in endless process.

I have downloaded uninstall.bat but after running script its showing me The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process execution failed.

What should I do now?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
It's because you need to disable DNS CLIENT (CACHE) Service before enabling hosts.

Disable it, and internet will start working again, if you use hosts.

And, bat requires administrator privilege to install/uninstall hosts.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
Don't worry! :)

It's a part of the process. Just disable DNS Cache before applying any hosts on Windows.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Vinayakn73:
but how to disable dns cache. and even after restarting nothing is happening.

and yes I'm running bat file with administrator privileges.

---------- Post added at 05:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 AM ----------

ok I searched over net and found that in services.msc but all options are grayed out.

query. first I need to disable cache service - then I install host file - and after that should I keep this service disabled or enable it again.

update : solved everything by booting pc in safe mode, thanks for help.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
Good! I will try adding a warning message before using INSTALLER BAT!

Energized Protection

New Update | 18.07.202​

Hey Folks! How have you been doing? How's Energized for you? Fine?

Today we are back with our best yet system for you. We couldn't bring weeklies for last few weeks. Because we were upgrading our system. And, we maintain this project on our free time, we get out of our study and life! (Yea, you got it right, we are students! )

So it took a bit longer.

But it was worth waiting, while we were working behind the stage, cause we have ~

• Upgraded our system to provide you the best hosts, filtering inactive/dead domains.

• Removing inactive/dead domains means, hosts size were reduced.

• We removed few Energized Packs, and merged them to newer packs, which will make things easier for you to choose the best pack.

• Moved to a new hosting, and that's not a big deal, but it is for us! You know, maintaining a hosting and bandwidth with pocket money is bit tough!

• Improved our Magisk Module to give you the best experience of the Energized.

• Over all, we totally upgraded our Energized System to a whole new level to give you the best Energized Experience.

Hopefully, there won't be any more delay providing the weeklies anymore. We are ready to provide you the best service yet!

New Website - https://nayemador.com/energized

New Repo - https://github.com/EnergizedProtection/block

* Please upgrade your Energized Sources to the latest one from our website or repo. Else, you won't be able to get latest updates, as we have moved to new website and repository.

Feel free to let us know anything you think about Energized. Any suggestion, or any issue, anything! That will be so kind of you. And, thanks to you, for using Energized!

Stay Energized Mates! ​

hi [MENTION=6150654]AdroitAdorKhan[/MENTION]

thank you for your good work ;)

this befor there is android flashable and windows bat formats but now there isnt.

so now how I can use hosts file for them please?

I download RAW format and put and replace it on flashable and windows bat zip file (hosts)

and I think its work. ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
:D

Yea. We have decided to ditch support for Android Flashable Zip, Standalone Magisk and Windows BAT. As we have AdAway to manage, and an All-In-One Magisk Module to do the job. So they both were removed for this reason from our new setup.

And, we also ditched Windows Bat because, few users didn't know how to recover and get back to original state after applying from bat. And, that were causing too much issue! So we decided to move on without them. You can use Hostsman on Windows, with Energized Source.

Hello Ador!

I absolutely ador(pun intended) your work. But whenever I use your ad blocker my chromium browser losses its performance and lags. Is it due to the big hosts file, I checked it (installed the Blu go variant) and the hosts file was about 16mb?! Is it normal?

My device has only 1GB of RAM if it matters.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
Hey bud! And, I 'Ador' You guys too! :D

Yea, it makes bit laggy because of the large HOSTS file. Clear up your hosts file, then just apply Blu Go, it's only 3MB in size. We have a smaller one currently in W.I.P State. It will be 1MB in size.

If you want to try the pre-release, here is the source - https://nayemador.com/active/hosts (0.9MB) only. Which would block less, but won't affect your performance.

Make sure to clear your hosts, before apply Blu Go or the new one.

Stay Energized! ⚡
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Thanks alot! I'll try it out. I'm like to go bleeding edge most of the times so why not?

Edit - The hosts file you limited also has a lot of hosts, I think this to will be bigger? :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AdroitAdorKhan:
No mate. This won't be any bigger than 1MB! It will be a true lite host! ;)
