Hi, are there any DNS recommendations? I tried using AdGuard via Private DNS, but it doesn’t seem to block ads on apps like YT and TT. It worked fine on my previous Samsung device.
Revanced is a good alternative.

For that one I think you need blockada or other kind of VPN based ad blocker. If not is the revanced I think?
Oh I thought would be a more general thing instead of app specific. I used the same private DNS address for my previous Samsung phone and it blocked off most ads across all apps.

Probably it's a OS difference between Samsung and Oppo behaviour 🥲

Revanced good?
It's the same as premium users without ad. Although I'm premium user, I used revanced in my BYD as it does not support GMS. Been using revanced for years on my Huawei phones. Rest of my devices like iphone and ipad, I'm using YouTube premium.

So, I know both revanced and YouTube premium are the same.

Samsung probably has a built in blocker or something.

DNS blocking cannot block ads that originates from the same source and to block ads on youtube, it also may needs to do comestic filtering which network side cannot do
YT and TT
Are you browsing through the apps or using the browser?

if app, then there is no way any adblocker can block properly since it needs to detect things like this

Example - blocking youtube videos that list as UPCOMING
youtube[.]com##ytd-browse ytd-rich-item-renderer:has(ytd-thumbnail-overlay-time-status-renderer[overlay-style="UPCOMING"])

Example - blocking youtube videos that list as a live event or timed event that has "notify me"
youtube.com##ytd-rich-item-renderer:has(span.yt-core-attributed-string--white-space-no-wrap:has-text(Notify me))

Updated to this so called beta software. So next time I do check for official release OTA software and will I still get it?
The next official software is basically this one unless there is another mainline firmware, which will also release 1st in the release candidate.
Oppo/OnePlus firmwares are in such a format where mainline(android version and security update) as well as ColorOS/oxygenOS updates are in the main numbers in the version, i.e the 16.0.3.504, whereas the bracket version update only updates the ColorOS/OxygenOS system apps only, in this case is (EX01B40P02). If the next update contains Feb security update, it will change the 1st numbering set I mentioned, the 16.0.3.504 to a newer set of numbers, to something like 16.0.3.601(for example only)

I believe it shouldn't be an issue for future official updates.

My F9XP WiFi doesn't auto turn on and connect to a WiFi network even with auto WiFi and auto connect on, unless I keep the WiFi permanently on. Previously for Samsung, I can off my WiFi and it will still auto switch on and connect. Is this a firmware limitation or I need to make additional tweaks? thanks

Forget your wifi. Pair your wifi again and select "auto reconnect" then press connect.

Just keep the wifi on then. Tbh it doesnt make sense if u manual off the wifi and u want to auto connect in OFF position. It defeat the purpose of the OFF button.

Thanks. But it still doesn't work unless I keep my WiFi on.
like what zhutou said, doesn't make sense if u want the wifi to be off yet auto turn on whenever you want.

the other way is to use 1 of those automation apps like macrodroid to auto turn on your wifi based on either time and/or location.
