Have licenses for both Windows and Android for Adguard. Recently decided to purchase a VPN package, and went with NordVPN since it was one of the three your documentation referenced. They appear to work fine together on Windows.
On Android (Pixel 2 XL) my phone is not rooted. I setup proxy server as socks5, and it passes connection check. I also turned on local proxy port (1080) and local HTTP Proxy for Setup mode of Manual in Adguard. Went to my wireless, set it to Manual, 127.0.0.1, and 1080 as well. My VPN in Android is set to always on, and on the Nord VPN not the Adguard one.
When I look at Notifications, it says I am connected to proxy. It also has a second notification that says running as proxy on port 1080. When I expand the second one, it says "Proxy is not configured for the current connection". Because of this, Adguard does no filtering as long as NordVPN is running. I disconnect Nord, and Adguard filters but I have no VPN. I turn it back on, Adguard stops filtering again.
Historically, I have loved Adguard. Have multiple licenses, and have gotten others to buy it as well. But now that I have decided to add VPN, due to our net neutrality rule changes, I went with NordVPN because of it's reputation and also because it too has ad blocking. Now I'm wondering if I even need Adguard with NordVPN? I'm wondering if running both you really need to root your phone, though your documentation says its not mandatory as long as I can live with only TCP filtered and wait for improvements?
I'd like to run both, but it does not appear to be possible. Yes, I read your one thread on NordVPN, and yes I am at work/home and using wifi and I would like it to be under VPN.
Thoughts / Help please? (forgive grammar and spelling issues please)
