[Android Apps and Games] Zeuszoos:
Yea, this happens with YouTube and thus, with OGYouTube. And people look for fixes they'll never find. Like I said, every time it happens, I (and many others) end up going back to an older OG and that works.

So this time, I'm staying with it! It just works! It Downloads, has the "Pop Up ('Floating') Window", etc.. I'm not updating any more, nor will I have the "Official YouTube" app installed anymore. I'm done! :)

If you want to go that route too, see my post (just a few posts back) that has the download and info on doing it.

Me? I'm "YouTube stress" free! <lol>

No, in your case, you don't need OG, if you can Sign-In to the Official (Google's) YouTube app and you don't get error msgs when you try to play videos.

I personally recommend that you stick with the v1.2 that I provided, because I'd bet anything that if you weren't having a problem already, then you will! As I tell people, Google is the Micro$oft of the Internet. They don't care how they get to dominance and their products are not that great. They simply followed M$'s approach, which does not involve fixing bugs, but introducing new ones. :)

* Add products on.

* Make them (appear to be) free.

* Require manufacturers to install them, using illegal, anti-competitive means, knowing that the worst that will happen is the US Gov saying; "Oh, now, you boys stop that. Play nice.".

But what type of "innovation" (a flat out lie) are you actually going to get, when a company knows it can suck at what it does (on the apps end), be outdone at coding and creativity by your 10 year old cousin's 2 month old puppy, but you'll still end up using their products? Do you think paying the best of the best at coding apps is what's going to happen? :)

Anyway, if you don't need the extras, without hesitation I'd say ditch OG. But because of all the problems, I say stick with it and don't update from v1.2 and remember that every time it asks you to update, say "Later", because it's referring to the Official YouTube, not the OG version.

But if you do ditch OGYT, then yes, all you need are the 2 Xposed Mods:

* "YouTube AdAway"

* "NoOverlayWarning"

The first one is obvious. The second one is actually for every app that prompts the "Screen Overlay" crap in Marshmallow and makes you want to pull your hair out from dealing with going through this setting for various apps to find out where the problem/conflict is. With this Xposed Mod installed, you won't have to worry about that, because you'll never even see a "Screen Overlay" message in the first place!

Lemme put it to you this way..... After a while of having the Mod running, you won't even remember that MM has a setting for that! You'll see someone else getting frustrated by that issue and at first, won't even know what he's talking about, until it hits you and you say to yourself; "Oh yea! That's right! Marshmallow does have that issue, doesn't it! Now how did I fix that on mine again??? Hmmm... Now let me see..." <finger nails tapping on desk> <lol!> :)

As for Xposed in general, once you set up a couple of Mods, it's cake, dude! :)

You need to have the "Xposed Framework" installed and there are just A TON of really way cool mods that you can use to fine tune your setup to make it behave exactly how you want it to and do things that it simply can't do stock! Xposed is friggin' awesome, dude! In fact, if I had to name the "Top 3 Things You Can Do To Your Phone", Xposed would be in not only my list, but I think most Xposed users' lists! It's just that damn good! :)

However, I do think that "Xposed for MM" (Marshmallow) is still in Beta though. But you can get it and it did work quite well for me when I was running MM. I still have the MM version files here, I believe.

If you already have the Xposed Framework installed, but need help with its Settings, what Mods to install and their settings, just PM me. I'd be happy to help!

I won't discuss it here, because it'd be off-topic to go into setting up the Framework, etc..

We were all noobs once and while I certainly can't spend my life helping out noobs 24/7, I don't think that helping out the occasional polite and genuinely nice seeming (yes, you) new guy is going to kill me. <lol>

TTYL! :)
