I'm using afwall 1.2.0 on Jellybean 4.2.2, in whitelist mode. It works fine for the majority of apps, but doesn't work at all for certain Google apps. They still can't access the Internet.

More specifically:
-Youtube when whitelisted will allow you to browse the videos, but will not play them when you click play. It will show a "Connection to server lost" message.
-Upon launch, Gmail remains stuck in "Waiting for sync".
-Google Play didn't work, however I solved this by also whitelisting the Google Play Services process.

For the first two, it's not clear at all what else I should whitelist to make them work. I tried enabling logs to see what accesses the Internet when Gmail is launched, but logging doesn't work, it's always empty even when enabled.

Let me know if I should provide additional info.

  • Youtube issue is resolved in 1.2.1. Make sure you enable "Media Server"
  • for Gmail, make sure you enabled "1000: Android System......"

Thanks, tested and confirmed. Gmail + AndroidSystem and Youtube + MediaServer makes both work.
