Any good adblock for JB? - HTC One S

I used adaway ad blocking with ics but after upgrading to jb it doesn't work anymore and resets after each boot.
Can someone suggest a good app to block ads?

It's a known problem, if you are on the stock ROM. Any others will have the same issue although there is Adblock if you want a new one.
To get rid of the problem use a custom kernel or flash the mod that prevents read-only access in system, when the device has booted.

Ok thanks.. Whats a good kernel to use with the stock tmo jb that I just updated my rooted s-on one s with?
Or is there a link to the script....

Also check this out for latest version. Just in case.

I would recommend Adfree from the Google Play store

All ad away apps have been removed from play store... Easy to side load though

Oh you're right, I guess they recently removed them.

Installing new Android Market

I searched but couldn't find a thread. So can someone tell me how to install the new Android Market on my unrooted Evo?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I am on MIUI, and to my knowledge they didn't have the latest version in their recent release. Last night I believe mine updated automatically. I could be wrong, but I personally didn't manually update anything. I woke up this morning and it was updated to the most recent version. You may turn on your autosync and everything to see if it does it automatically.
If you have the apk. Uninstall any market updates from settings and use adb to push the new apk to /system/app/Vending.apk. this will overwrite your original vending apk so you might want to back it up first.

Just download and install like a normal app, its just a upgrade and you can downgrade if needed.

It should work on non rooted phones too

Just go to Applications, where you would remove the app it will say Downgrade

[Q] Hulu Plus?

Does anyone know how to get Hulu Plus working on our devices?
EDIT:
Meant to post this in the Thrill section. Sorry.
What's hulu?
can you post a link?
Really?? You dont know what hulu is? I am interested in this as well.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
now i'm at home and now i kown what hulu are!
hulu is very nice, so i'm interested in this too
Supposedly yes, but I can't get mine working. I'm guessing at this point it's because I have optimus firmware on it instead of Thrill so it thinks I'm out of country or something. Anyway. Go try it and see. I get as far as watching the ads than after that it just buffers indefinitely or gives me a "Streaming Unavailable" error. Many others have this same error and many have suggestions to fix it. I've tried them all and still can't fix it but it seems the majority have it working fine.

Alright, finally, now it shows up as having a custom patch. I custom patched it. I tried using the built in browser, opera mobile, and the hulu plus app and none of them are working still. What are you using with the custom patched Adobe Flash to watch hulu?

The custom patch for adobe flash player is supposed to let you go on websites like hulu or netflix and identifies it as windows Even though the app is better

Hooray For The Old Market App!
I go to the Android Market for Android Apps. When I got the updated app on my G2, I got used to it. But I never liked it. Yes, I'm sure I could have gone back, but it wasn't a big issue with me.
I don't buy movies on the Android Market
I don't buy books on the Android Market
I do get free apps and paid apps on the Android Market and that's what my market app does.
Hooray for the older, simpler app!
Im using the android market from undead's rom. Its good but its very buggy. Switching back to older version
I was actually able to find everything I was looking for here:

Just replace the file (of course make sure you backup, just in case) and restart the phone. The vending.apk is located in \system\app

Install the one below (yes, it's a different one). Before that, uninstall you 'old error' version.

Google how to change update schedule for your phone model, there is a lot of sites with your info. In past it was used to manipulate update settings. Also if you are rooted then use app like titanium to freeze or remove update module. I personally would remove it as oem updates are garbage IMO .

Have you thought about installing custom ROM for your phone. Here is a good link with lots of options. I would use a task manager app and see what's running that's triggering that search.

I don't see any solution myself. What's happening with your phone is not normal. There's something wrong. The only way to fix it would be to ruu or clean flash a rom if you are bootloader unlocked.

Sorry these questions are forbidden as there is no best rom.
Check them all out. Read the features. If you see a rom with the features you want download and flash it.
Use titanium backup and freeze the OTA updater. Not sure what its called. My mother in law just got a One X, so I'm browsing these forums.
In my S3, its called AT&T Updater or OTA Updater. I haven't been stock in a while. I hope this helped.
