**(30) Can I also run AFWall+ on the same device?**
Unless you are just testing NetGuard, there is no current reason to use them both, since they cover the same function (firewall) although with different base needs (AFWall+ needs a rooted device) and ways of doing their thing (AFWall+ uses iptables).

**(31) Which hosts file should I use?**
There is no conclusive answer to this question, but my advice is to use a hosts file which is at least maintained.
You can find some suggestions [here](https://github.com/M66B/NetGuard/issues/277),
where you also can find which hosts file netguard.me/hosts serves.

**If you didn't find the answer to your question, you can ask your questions [here](http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3233012)**.
