UnbelovedHosts

By



Xposed hosts blocker.


This app blocks host names of advertising, malware, spam, phone-home etc sites. You could import "hosts"-files by given urls.
With this app you have no more to alter the /etc/hosts file on the system partition, which was also a problem on some devices (eg Nexus 7) because changes where reverted after reboot.

Technical:
Name resolution request are answered with "No address associated with the hostname". This is even better than a common hosts file with redirects to 127.0.0.1, because no connection attemp follows. For logging of hostnames is no tcpdump needed!

Browser:
If you want to block content of websites, you have to use a browser app which does not tunnels everything through a proxy! This is because the proxy does also the name resolution. Negative examples I found: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Opera Browser does not work.
I'm using Dolphin Jetpack, which works fine for me. Some more info in post #47 of the XDA thread.

This app will NOT be release in the Play Store because of Google's policy. Other apps like AdAway or AdFree where removed in the past... But you could anyway donate in the Play Store and/or on my website.

Limitiation:

No support of native querying binaries.

Play Store Fixes

By
If you have set a custom DPI, Play Store stops showing some of your apps because Google thinks they are incompatible with your phone. This module tries to avoid that by making Play Store think it had a "normal" DPI and transmitting the same to Google's servers. Note that it will NOT allow you to download apps that are not offered in your country, or restricted by anything but your custom DPI. After installing this modules, you might want to check the settings. You can access them from the "Modules" tab in the Xposed Installer. Just click on the module. From here, you can: - Choose which DPI to send (default: 240) - Unlock the debug menu. Useful to quickly empty the cache to force a recheck for updates, but can also do  other things . Afterwards, you need to reboot. If you still don't see all apps, you can try one or more of the following steps: - Just wait a few hours or days - wherever something is cached, it should be refreshed from time to time -
