Description

From the listing uploaded by “mr-robot”.

"Change" DNS server on most of popular phones with Android versions (2.2+), including Kitkat, by one click. On Kitkat (Android 4.4), changing dns server settings is not allowed by system. DNS Forwarder can work as a workaround. It does not modify system setting, just bypasses local dns server settings by forwarding dns queries to other configured server. It works on rooted phones running Android 2.2 and above. Features: * Auto forward on boot * Show/Hide service notifications * Multiple in-built dns list and customizable dns servers Supported dns servers: 8.8.8.8 (Google) 8.8.4.4 (Google) 208.67.222.222 (OpenDNS) 208.67.220.220 (OpenDNS) 209.244.0.3 (Level3) 209.244.0.4 (Level3) 195.46.39.39 (SafeDNS) 195.46.39.40 (SafeDNSs) 216.87.84.211 (OpenNIC) 23.90.4.6 (OpenNIC) 216.146.35.35 (Dyn) 216.146.36.36 (Dyn) 37.235.1.174 (FreeDNS) 37.235.1.177 (FreeDNS) 109.69.8.51 (puntCAT) 84.200.69.80 (DNS.WATCH) 84.200.70.40 (DNS.WATCH) 199.5.157.131 (Public-Root) 208.71.35.137 (Public-Root) 208.76.50.50 (SmartViper) 208.76.51.51 (SmartViper) 8.26.56.26 (Comodo SecureDNS) 8.20.247.20 (Comodo SecureDNS) 156.154.70.1 (DNS Advantage) 156.154.71.1 (DNS Advantage) 199.85.126.10 (Norton ConnectSafe) 199.85.127.10 (Norton ConnectSafe) 81.218.119.11 (GreenTeamDNS) 209.88.198.133 (GreenTeamDNS) 89.233.43.71 (censurfridns.dk) 89.104.194.142 (censurfridns.dk) 74.82.42.42 (Hurricane Electric) Other customized dns servers How to use: 1) choose a DNS server from list. Also you can set up customized dns server. By default Google dns server 8.8.8.8 is configured. 2) Check "Enable Forwarder" box DNS forwarder will start a service to serve DNS queries (UDP). To stop it, just uncheck "Enable forwarder". Note: the trafic forwarding feature might be not supported by system on some phones. In this case dns forwarder cannot work. A failure toast will be displayed when checking "Enable forwarder".
