I have followed your three troubleshooting steps.<br /><br />When I try to activate ad blocking I get the "SUCCESS!" dialog, but when I click "reboot" the device does not reboot, BUT the text in the andguard app says it failed because it didn't have SU privs. It does, it's in the list in the superuser privileges. And busybox is installed.<br /><br />HTC Desire, stock ROM, android 2.2 <br /><br />EDIT: I think I have found the problem. On HTC Desire it seems that apps can't create an etc/hosts file, even with su privileges. The file must be explicitly created by the user, e.g. via an adb connection. Copying a hosts file onto the SD card and then, with a file explorer with su rights, copying that to /system/etc/hosts could maybe also work (haven't tried it myself, though).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361517938750827772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8816452502233513657.post-40424401503060721502010-11-13T06:36:49.390-08:002010-11-13T06:36:49.390-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361517938750827772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8816452502233513657.post-38400756050056665062010-11-11T18:51:27.803-08:002010-11-11T18:51:27.803-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361517938750827772noreply@blogger.com
