Huawei Phone bypassing Pihole DNS

Discovered that my Huawei was bypassing my Pihole and ignoring my DNS settings resulting in ads being servering up in some apps. Symptoms was that upon initial launch of apps, the apps begain serving ads after 30 or so seconds.

Had to set “Private DNS” to “dns.adguard.com” and this appeared to stop it. Who knows if this fix will still be valid a week later.
