No blocking at all / error code when disabling about afwall HOT 16 CLOSED

Do you see any rules from rules view ? can you copy and paste the rules here, also please mention the OS version and device along with the iptables version.

Thanks.

from afwall.

Wow, thanks for your quick response.

OS Version: Android 2.3.6, Samsung Stock ROM.
Device: Samsung Galaxy Xcover GT-S5690

Where can I check the iptables version?

Rules: I first checked them when after installing AFW, they were there. Checked again after some time, were empty altough AFW was set to enabled. Clicked a few times enable/disable, apply rules. Now they are there again. EDIT: Still doesn't block anything

Looks like it doesn't apply any rules. Can you please try this version ?

from afwall.

After a short "app does not respond" after clicking "show rules" I get the same rules as above.
Enabled AFW -> Successfully applied rules.
Browser can still load webpages (Whitelist + nothing allowed) :(

from afwall.

Ok. Then I am surely need logcat to fix it. otherwise I can't fix it. Please send me a logcat. incase if you need help, you can find it here.

So I started logcat, enabled AFW (Dropbox version you posted), closed AFW, saved Log. Hope I this helps.

Looks like it applied without any issue. After applying this last one, still do you see the same rules ?

from afwall.

I rebooted since then, but the rules are still there.

from afwall.

Could you please paste the rules here one more time after applying with the dropbox fix version that you provided with logcat ?

from afwall.

Of course.

Looks like some other tool is stopping you to apply the rules. do you have PDroid or any other firewall installed ?

from afwall.

No. Tried the original DroidWall long time ago, but didn't work, so I uninstalled it.
Maybe Avast is the problem? The Avast firewall is disabled, because it says my kernel does not support netfilter.

from afwall.

hah! AFWall+ is based on droidwall and it uses the same code base with improvements and bug fixes and later the same developer(Droidwall) started working for Avast. So, as it mentioned kernel should support netfilter. otherwise these firewalls won't work for you.

from afwall.

So no firewall for me? :( There are no other ROMs for my phone. I will try on another phone of the same model. Does it have to do with busybox?

from afwall.

You can try some other ROM at XDA forum. Busybox has additional commands that helps to perform certain operations which android doesn't have. But iptables with netfilter support is required for these firewalls.

from afwall.

Just tried on another (rooted) xcover. Avast does NOT complain about missing netfilter support, but also does not block anything.
I searched half of the internet for ROMs for my phone, did not find anything yet. I guess no firewall for me.
