Pi-hole-for-Android VS linuxdeploy

Is https://github.com/DesktopECHO/Pi-hole-for-Android/releases Safe to deploy ? Or how would you go about a pihole install on android phone that is rooted

I'm a Windows PC guy so am not up on the latest Linux antivirus / antimalware solutions out there, but a powerful tool mainly for ads but also malware involves making an old Google Nexus tablet into an appliance on your network in conjunction with PiHole to sort of create a "black hole" on your network for any devices trying to phone home to access or download malware or viruses or other bad stuff on top of advertisements.

It's possible: https://github.com/DesktopECHO/Pi-hole-for-Android, but I would just get a Raspberry Pi. It's the easiest way.

Im going to use this: https://github.com/DesktopECHO/Pi-hole-for-Android

Install a Linux container with Raspbian and Pi-hole, use it as a regular Linux server.

Did you try this or other pihole for android if you have another method link please

I have no idea about Linux Deploy.... Good luck.

same post in LD github

Your question is invalid (and my point proven, sadly) unless you know how to run Linux Deploy on a Chromecast. You were too busy trying to be the smartest guy in the room before thinking to ask what I was actually doing with this thing in the first place.

Linux Deploy: requires root, installs a complete Linux distribution of choice. Link: https://github.com/meefik/linuxdeploy/releases/tag/2.6.0. You mentioned that no root, then this variant is not for you.

Yes; I use Linux Deploy on most of my rooted Android devices to set up a chroot environment easily (it's kinda old though, so there may be much better alternatives). I used my old Amazon Fire as a Pi-hole that way

I published a fork of Linux Deploy that automatically installs Pi-hole and Unbound, configures SSH/RDP access, and optionally installs Raspbian PIXEL Desktop to any rooted Android 5.0+ device.

The box I found online was pre-rooted, so I installed Linux Deploy and deployed the Pi-hole for Android image. That's all there is to it.

I use LinuxDeploy to stage my chroots, simple and easy (also available on Play and F-Droid) on rooted. I even have a mobile/handheld software defined radio (or as I like to refer to it as, a 1st gen, poor persons TriCorder). Can't do this in Termux or a proot, but in a chroot and easy as eating cake.
