How to fix Host Problem | Play Store not working. *root* Guide

Hi guys this is Shubham aka ThunderBolt. Flashing custom ROMs or modifying android through root. One of these problems is the Host error, what it does is that due to this Google adds an IP address in the host file which causes Google apps not be able to get internet connection even when other apps are working fine. There are mainly two ways to fix this which I will be teaching you and both require root and you'll probably have root access of you're getting this error(see how to get it).

Method 1:
This is the easy method as it easy to perform as compared to the other method as it requires less steps, but it will not resolve your problem if you've done something really wrong... Well of you want to do this:
First install hosts editor atop either from Google Play Store or from here
Then open it and give tour access and long tap on the IP address with a name consisting of android.provider..... something and delete it and now your apps should be working, but of the problem arose again some time late then this method didn't worked for you.


Method 2:
This is the longer method but gives a 100% success in fixing the problem. Just like every time follow my steps and your problem will be solved:
First download and install root browser either from Google Play Store or from here.
Then open it and open it, later give it root access and head to etc and delete the file named hosts, of doesn't has a format, just delete it and you're problem wool be solved forever (unless you do something stupid).
