AdBlock Plus as a system app (solved)

Post by IrfCore »

Solved!

Solution (requires root access)
Download the latest Adblock Plus apk.
Open it with a zip app for example ZArchiver in android or 7zip on PC.
Extract the file libjsEngine.so from the apk AdBlockPlus.apk/lib/armeabi/libjsEngine.so
Put it in /system/lib and set permission as the other files (rw-r--r--)

Put the apk AdBlockPlus.apk in /system/app and set the right permission (rw-r--r--)
PS, this also works with other apps, for example keyboards like SwiftKey or Google Keyboard.
Basically just copy the lib file or files and it should work with the right permission

Thanks!

I don't think it is possible at the moment, but yeah, it might be a cool suggestion
