I am trying to figure out how I can whitelist slickdeals from Adaway. Adaway is great for blocking add but sometimes its too strong for its own good. Everytime I try to open up a deal from SD, I always get the 404 error cannot be reached. Yet if I turn off ad away, the links work without any issues. Is there a work around for this, or is there a ad block that does allow it?

I setup a pihole and a VPN server at home and use the VPN when I want ad blocking. Makes it much easier to turn on and off for stuff like Slickdeals, or just as easy to whitelist it. There's also the benefit of not needing root so my wife can use it too without too much issue

I agree with this, I have done it this way as well as just using adguards private dns in the dns settings on the phone, then turning it off when you want to not adblock, works the same way for the most part.

To answer your question, Yes... in Adaway, click the menu dots in he upper right, choose "Your Lists" then on the "white" tab, click the "+" to add the url you want to allow. in this case: *.slickdeals.*

The problem with this though is that Slickdeals isn't the actual domain that gets blocked it's a bunch of different affiliate domains. I'd imagine it would take quite a while before you get them all but it will work eventually

yes I tried to just add slickdeals, but unfortunately when people post deals on the website, it goes through an affiliate link so whoever posts it gets rewarded. So when going through the affiliate link, the ad block blocks any access to it.

It's pretty simple, you just need a US billing address (which can be faked ... not really recommended if you don't want to get in trouble). Details: http://android.stackexchange.com/q/7254/1465

You should get one eventually, but you could also try going into the app's settings, checking Use Bridges, and enter the IP of a US bridge. I don't know of any US bridges myself but this mat be useful: https://www.torproject.org/docs/bridges#FindingMore
And yet no one is giving a complete guide how to do it... Ok, we need Orbot, and that you go to Tor page when you don't get a slightest idea how to use it on your Android phone...

Oh, in the guide the link to Tor is purely informational, you don't even need to look at it. The Tor link I posted above is a complex way to possibly have a higher chance of being routed into the US ... that's really only for people who are ready to do the research into it. The guide on StackExchange should be enough.
If Tor is essentially a proxy - would your phone need to have iptables in order for this method to work?

My kernel does not have iptables. (SE X10 Mini Pro)
While I can run orbot and connect - it doesn't tunnel any data through the connection. My IP address in any app is still the same as it was before connection to the tor network. (Including the browser check in the orbot app)
I suspect therefore that in order to tunnel apps through the tor network, your kernel does in fact need iptables.

If you put a fake phone number, they can't call you. Don't attach fake info to your "real" account if you have one, if this concerns you. And they probably only call if your billing info is fake and they can't process your payment, so you could stick to free apps with no problem. (I don't see why they would call otherwise, there's no way they're going through every account and verifying the info manually).

It doesn't care about whether you have a payment method, or if you do where your billing address is, until you try to buy/download an app.
Yeah, stupidly enough I attached fake info to my real account. I did only download free apps though, to avoid them taking contact.
I am from Singapore and there's no need to use Tor or proxies to use the Amazon Appstore. Downloads are verified as long as there's a valid US credit card number attached to your 1-click configuration.
It makes sense because it verifies you as a US citizen. The claim that " this new market cannot be used outside of the US" is false. You're saying US citizens travelling outside of US who wants to access has to use Tor?
Amazon restricts usage only in US through identification using credit card information (and house address).

The most insidious ones are sitting between thread replies, and they disable the mouse-wheel scroll function when you mouse-over the ad.

Huh, I dont know what you are referring to. Screen shot perhaps? I assume whatever it is, it depends on flash and the easiest way is to disable flash. The browser I use lets you disable it per site or only enable when you click. I assume other browsers have something as an extension.

Weird. If you get something like firebug or http headers extensions on firefox, they will let you find out what external links are loading. If you can get me some sort of dump or screen shot, I can tell you what to block in your host file. Chrome has the developers tools that show the same stuff or Opera has Dragonfly, so whichever you use.
Opera though, you can right click on the page → content tab → edit site preferences → turn off plugins. That's what I do at least or disable them on all sites and enable when I need them, just for better security.
Pretty sure the other browsers have flashblock, but last I knew and don't quote me on it, flashblock runs the just for a moment before it shuts off the flash since it's an extension. If the flash happened to be malicious, that could possibly be bad. Just semi off topic, but just something that was true and may still be.
If you don't want to deal with all that, you can use my hosts file that I use on my desktop, it's smaller version of the one I use for mobile thats posted with a script to install/update it in the developer's section of the forum.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24904191/hosts-desktop
rename it "hosts" and stick it in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts on windows (must open notepad with admin privilages) or on linux/osx, it goes in /etc/hosts.
I wouldnt normally advocate for blocking ads on xda, but if they have anything that automatically plays audio, that draws the line for me.

Hello everyone, so I recently finally got blocked from tethering by T-Mobile after a long time of sucking it out of them by being rooted and on a custom ROM like all of us here.
The way they know you are tethering on their network is by the User Agent that is sent to them by your desktop/laptop computer browser. When they see that a regular browser is accessing their network, that's when you get the infamous T-Mobile Hotspot Screen we all hate.
I've recently discovered a Firefox Add-On called User Agent Switcher found here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/?src=search
Download it and install it to Firefox. Then download this (right click, "Save as") http://techpatterns.com/downloads/firefox/useragentswitcher.xml
Go to Tools>User Agent>Edit User Agents (a window pops up) click on "Import.." and add the .xml file you just downloaded.
Then pick a User Agent that resembles the Sensation webkit and BAM! Free tethering for all of us.
I'm using it right now
NOTE: If you use a Googlebot User Agent, you will be able to tether and always load up full webpages instead of mobile versions. - Thanks to The Archangel and chadwick3nser for discovering this!
You can also do the same with chrome.
Been doing it for since the day they released it.

What are you using to block the IP address? I was thinking just changing the IP to not be the standard DHCP that the phone would give you still shows it coming from another MAC address on the same connection and would be obvious to the write sniffing rules?
I realize this isn't a requirement I've been using the UA for a while from canary but I easily see them stopping this workaround w/ better sniffing rules.

This is a very bad advice as pretending to be a googlebot may get you either blocked or banned from many websites (especially if they use ZBBlock) as this behavior is rated as a spammer/bot activity.

Okay I've been tethering fine for a while on FF, but T-Mobile finally blocked me yesterday... I figured out that it was the second I started to watch a YouTube video. Guessing they're able to see activity on my cell account at the same time as my login is accessing YouTube and put 2&2 together...? (That may be obvious to some...)
Anyway... I may try the user agent spoofing but this is really aggravating since I'm traveling right now and the internets in my hotel are $10/day.

The latest wrinkle in this ongoing problem is ads with soundtracks! They just start going off when I'm on my phone, and if I'm in public they can be really annoying to those around me! I've read the only thread on the subject posted last year where someone suggested an ap call configAPK be found and removed. I did that but I'm stilling ads. Someone suggested hit the Recent key on the navigator in order to find the source of the ad, like what app put it out, but I didn't understand the instruction. Some members even blamed Samsung for doing the, but how would their doing this not simply drive everyone to consider an Apple phone?

Today I hit the Recent button after a video ad and found BeiTaPlug. I planed to Google it but saw your response and had to check it.
