Elaborate please?

On my rooted device Unbound started with root mode checked, the log was empty, button said stop unbound.

I had to uncheck root mode, press stop, recheck root, press start and then it asks for root permissions from the system.

Having root unchecked and default port 5353 maybe is better.

Now, is it even possible to change mobile data DNS without root in Android >4?

I'm afraid that simply setting the DNS is not enough. I'm balancing between using IPTables solution for rooted devices and VPN (or NetGuard) for non-rooted ones, WIP currently
