Set DNS Pro apk apps 2.1.0 android download
Preserves your custom nameserver information when using both
wireless and 3g/edge mobile connection. WIFI Only with non-rooted
phones.
Comes with google, opendns, opendns family shield, fooldns settings, enter custom DNS servers and option to revert back to DHCP.
Includes
widgets that will show the current DNS state and if you have DNS Pro
installed, will allow nameserver changes by clicking the appropriate
widget.
In normal mode, this app doesn't change *any* system files
(unlike some DNS apps), so you don't need to back up your nameserver
details. Just reverting back to DHCP will go back to your normal network
settings.
You can update the resolv.conf file within the preferences
if the normal settings don't work. This will modify the contents of the
resolv.conf if it is writable, after taking a backup.
OpenDNS Family Shield settings can be used to filter adult or inappropriate content on the phone.
Using
alternative nameservers like Google DNS or OpenDNS can dramatically
speed up your browsing. You can also bypass local DNS filters such as
Nawala.
Set DNS also checks if your browsing goes via a proxy service
that overrides your DNS settings. When network settings change, it will
try to access a URL directly using the IP address. If this hits the
right server then you have a direct connection to the network. If not,
then a proxy is intercepting the connection and is using it's own
nameserver information.
Proxy testing is turned *off* by default. You can enable it in the preferences.
I've
had some feedback about net.rmnet0.dns[12] not being changed (there's a
comment here too). The app doesn't change these settings by design.
Changing net.dns[12] is sufficient to change the DNS lookups on the
device. However, if I get more requests for the rmnet0 settings to be
changed, I'll add in an option to override the interface specific DNS as
well. Just drop me an email.
====
If you have any problems
with this - please email me or leave a message on the google plus page
(see the About option) before rating on the market. Most problems are
due to cached DNS or network proxies rather than the app itself.
In particular, testing against sites such as opendns will fail if going through a mobile carrier's proxy.

If
you find this app useful, please consider buying the Set DNS Pro app
which activates locking, control widgets and non-rooted functionality.

Please note, entering the wrong nameserver details can break your internet settings.

NON-ROOT FUCTIONALITY
If
you install this on a non-rooted phone, please understand that some
people are reporting in the market that it breaks their WiFi.
Unfortunately
these people report the problem in the market yet don't get in touch
with us so there's no way to resolve it. As a result, please consider
the non-root functionality "beta" status and install on your device at
your own risk.
What's in this version:
Updated the UI following feedback from version 2.0.0
