Hello everyone can anyone please give me an update on when the new version of youtube adaway will be release or the developer just stopped working on it please reply back
[Xposed Framework Modules] andreoide:
Read the past 25 postings and learn...
[Xposed Framework Modules] vo_danh:
I'm on a nexus player android 8, I have the xposed 3.1.5 installed, and the youtube adaway 4.3.5. However when I try to enable the module, it refuses to check the box and pops up a message box that says its not active, needs to be enabled, and a donate/no thanks selection.

*Turns out I had to use a mouse on the OTG port to enable it. I went back to 7.1 thinking it was just the new version. It probably works fine on 8.0

crashes on latest YouTube
[Xposed Framework Modules] nfsmaster007:
For me its Not working even with the recommended YouTube Version (Xperia Z2 6.0.1 root magisk v18 xposed)
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I am using background playback 2.0.4 and adaway 4.3.2 xposed modules with YouTube v13.02.58. I no longer get crashing or annoying update popups.

I've pinpointed the crashing to Google pushing a UI update within YouTube, by utilizing Android's systemwebview.apk. No amount of restrictions would stop Google from pushing this update, and wiping YouTube's data only worked temporarily.

The solution: switching to Bromite's systemwebview.apk

Most roms allow you to change the preferred webview and install 3rd party ones, some ROMs you have to manually replace it using a root file manager. This also sped up my phone quite a bit.

I still prefer using this YouTube setup over YouTube Vanced because it is noticeably faster on my OnePlus One running 6.0.1. I have no clue why.
[Xposed Framework Modules] robrazil:
If you phone is rooted, the official Youtube Vanced page is this: https://vanced.app/APKs?type=ROOT

The step 3 is extremily fundamental to installation running correct.

In my case, I prefered move the Youtube_14.10.53-1410532300_API19(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)(vBlack-v2.0.7)-vanced.apk file inside of ytva-universal-installer-v5.1.zip compressed file and use TWRP to do the instalation.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
That's not the official site for Vanced. It is http://vanced.app
[Xposed Framework Modules] pitastrudl:
latest update works perfect with latest youtube :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] osm0sis:
Nope, not at all. :p

I mean in Xposed Installer, in the Modules list, when you tap on one it usually brings up the module settings. Once your YouTube module is hidden from the app drawer (using the setting you put in the overflow menu) the module settings also become inaccessible through the Xposed Installer Modules list.

AppOpsXposed has managed to allow hiding from the app drawer while keeping the link via the Xposed Installer Modules list working, so that's why I mentioned it.

Hopefully that made more sense; these things can be difficult to explain! :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] NaabKing:
Thanks!
[Xposed Framework Modules] SupremeOverlord:
Great module. Only bug I am encountering is that when I try to do a voice search in the YouTube app it times out and doesn't search for anything. I am using a stock Droid Maxx on 4.4 rooted.
[Xposed Framework Modules] adavit:
I love this app, running it on the m8. Is there any way that we can get the ads completely blocked? What I mean is even though none of the ads show, when running in full screen when an ad is detected my on screen buttons pop back up and I lose screen space. Just a thought :) other than that little thing I have no other problems
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
I don't think it looses the focus because of ads, this isn't how it works, the ads are usually displayed on the video start.
[Xposed Framework Modules] GG_:
Also, youtube has been updated yesterday to version 5.6.35.
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
Unless the mod is broken due to said update, there's no need to inform him of every single one. And if it did break, provide more than just "YouTube was updated" - bring logs with you.

[Xposed Framework Modules] adavit:
Ah, makes sense. Thanks for the reply. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] GG_:
I just thought adavit's problem may come from this update, nothing else ...

Anyway, great app. Thanks

Edit: And looks like it is still working well with 5.6.35
[Xposed Framework Modules] Shebee:
Doesn't adaway do the trick already?
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Mine does NOT require Root, and it is NOT doing any Tcp dump nor tampering your Network connection.

All the work is done on the YouTube App level.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Shebee:
Ah okay, didn't know this.

[MENTION=3562083]wanam[/MENTION]: I noticed YouTube wants to connect to 127.0.0.1. I'm not sure, is this caused by this module?

Do you use ad blocker?

Sent from my GT-I5500 [OmniROM 4.4.2]
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
It should be an As blocker but not mine, i don't use any proxy methods.
[Xposed Framework Modules] defim:
I'm using my own adblocker (see signature) which does logging of changed hosts, and additionally it does not redirect to 127.0.0.1. That's because i'm asking here: In the log of it i see the 127.0.0.1. But maybe some host is really pointing to 127.0.0.1!?
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
Have you looked at /system/etc/hosts? Something possibly changed it. It wouldn't have been changed back after uninstalling said "something".

Sent from: SGS2 - JB 4.1.2 GB27 / SGS4 - JB 4.2.2 MF9
[Xposed Framework Modules] defim:
I had cleaned this file and removed the link manually after removing adaway app, only localhost is left. But if this app does not use 127.0.0.1, i'm in this thread wrong :)

Thank you for this module!

Really ?

Thanks for the notification but I not found clear informations about the vanced.app domain using whois tool. Besides that, the https://youtubevanced.com/ website address appears as the 1st in the result of the Google research about "youtube vanced official site", and the page footer has writen "© 2018-2019 YouTube Vanced. All Rights Reserved".

All these details made me belive that https://youtubevanced.com/ was the official website.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcdw:
Yes really. Vanced has an XDA thread where its OP lists official download links.

Okay.

You are right. I saw the official thread of the youtube vanced. I will change to the correct website address in my post, to avoid confusion.

Thanks.

Hoping somehow a "miracle" happens and dev on this great tool can be "un-hold" :)

Looking into the alternatives, it seems that the playlists, and other things are not associated with the gmail/google account, aka, they are not on the cloud, so watching on one phone/adding to playlist does not appear on another phone.. that's pretty show-stopper, since if all is stored locally, that phone lost means all that info is gone?

Tried the mentioned alternatives, noticed skytube has import abilities, but afterwards the files seem to be stored locally, and not on any cloud/centeral location.

Thanks for any ideas...
[Xposed Framework Modules] j1gga84:
YouTube vanced is nice but very outdated.. :(

regards
[Xposed Framework Modules] stormy1777:
Oh, was not aware Vanced is that easy to install, directly from Magisk, thanks [MENTION=7284748]Sapper Morton[/MENTION]!! Not sure about "dated", seems to work just fine, so in effect no need for 'adaway' as well as the background xposed modules.. only thing that may be trivial to you/others, it says to disable auto updates in google play store, which it is set to MANUAL on my end, however, still the youtube app appears on the list, so does that mean i now must "forever" remember to click UPDATE ALL and few seconds later (once the update "takes) the CANCEL on the youtube app? otherwise the vanced setup is gone?

is there a way to disable updates on a SPECIFIC app? in play store while on the youtube app, right-menu shows "enable auto update" UNCHECKED..

I'm hoping to somehow "disable" all updates, so that can easily update all apps without having to remember and scan where youtube, and cancel it from the updates..

Thanks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] stormy1777:
Only managed to get the Detach to work on the first time it installed/patched, after a reboot/restart play store again wanted to update (and did in several cases), tried magisk 19.4 / 20.0 with all versions of detach, in the end found another thread specifically talking about it, this post helped:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78470236&postcount=19

sudohide xposed module managed to hide youtube from google play store :)

very easy to setup, single reboot, and it seems to hold. I think reason it may work/not for some/others if youtube is a system app or user app might play a role.

Stormy.

Youtube history was not updating after enabling adaway.But I found some hosts on internet to be whitlisted to solve the above mentioned problem.And it worked for me

Here's the hosts-

Old tablet

Old tablet

Lollipop 5.0.2

xposed (alter touch wiz rom version)

Apkmirror YouTube 12.45.56 version (keep .apk on storage)

YouTube ad away 4.01 version

ZERO ADS-tested on all the bigger ad channels, sssniperwolf, good mythical morning, Doug demuro etc. ..

Con: have to reinstall youtube 12.45.56 .apk daily/after a reboot, as Google kills it.

Still worth it, having no YouTube ads.... when did having to watch 5 ads per channel become the norm...
[Xposed Framework Modules] xchikyx:
why reinstalling daily? I've have this for months now and I haven't needed to reinstall it. Be sure to check in the playstore to have youtube with the automatic updates off.
[Xposed Framework Modules] z4cky999:
Not sure why it happens, I use xprivacy as well. To switch off permissions.

Every time I reboot and open YouTube I get a message saying outdated app, plus a button to upgrade.

I have used this for many many years previously on kitkat, then a couple of weeks ago all apps decided to not work.

I installed lineage 17, but missed some of the old features (screen shots, using my pen), I only use a few apps, eBay, youtube, browser on this tablet.

Happy to learn more, but any newer version of YouTube I still recived ads.???? It's not ideal, but takes me 40 seconds to reinstall YouTube. . I'd waste that time in trying to watch some bigger channels anyway (the ads)

Any solutions to this would be cool.

Don't have any Google account Inc play store.

Tablet is a Samsung sm-p905 (lte version)
[Xposed Framework Modules] aladdins4ne:
Hi,

I have Youtube Adaway 4.3.2 with Android 7.0. For several years it has worked with Youtube 13.29.53. Since the beginning of the month, when I launch Youtube, it says I have to update the application if I want to go further. I cannot do anything else so I go to Settings > Applications > Youtube > Storage, and I delete user data, then the screen disappears, but after some times it goes back to the same screen.

If I update to newer versions of Youtube, the adaway module does not work. :( I have tried a dozen of versions. Ads at the beginning of videos are still showing up.

I've tried Youtube Vanced with Lucky Patcher and it was working fine but I have been banned from Snpachat using it because it detects the use of third party applications so I deleted it.

Has anyone a known version of Youtube currently working with Youtube Adaway ?

Is the version of Magisk Manager important ? Mine is 20.4.

Thanks. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Lmao dude just use the official YouTube vanced manager. It comes with its own Google services framework and works for the latest version of YouTube. Adblocking and background playback, including additional settings. Surprised you haven't heard of it?
[Xposed Framework Modules] aladdins4ne:
As I have said in my message, I have actually tried Youtube Vanced. :)

But :

- I got temporarily banned from Snapchat using it, the next ban won't be temporary, and as strange as it may seem, Snapchat is an app I am using a lot as well :p

- It drains my battery more than the old Youtube + Youtube AdAway combination even when not using it. I'm on a 4 year-old Samsung Galaxy S7, battery management becomes critical ^^

But if there is no way to get the Youtube AdAway to work, I will surely be using Youtube Vanced again.

What I find strange is that some people said it works fine on latest versions of Youtube.
[Xposed Framework Modules] stoph8n24:
When was the last time you tried Vanced? Much has changed, the root and non-root has worked fine for me while using Snapchat installed
[Xposed Framework Modules] kecodoc:
Until now, does Youtube adaway addon still work on Android 10?
[Xposed Framework Modules] dimm0k:
is this the official site https://vancedmanager.com/ ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Lastwurdz:
Yes it is. Vance is awesome
[Xposed Framework Modules] fuarkgl3:
Does this still work?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Lastwurdz:
For now it does still work. But a couple days ago I read that they will be shutting down due to lawsuits
[Xposed Framework Modules] Melionix:
So with the news that Vanced is being shutdown due to lawsuits, will YouTube AdAway continue to be supported? Does anyone know?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
As far as I know it is an abandoned project for many years
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rom:
You have to understand that the cat and mouse game is perpetual.

At the very beginning there were some teams that made MODs of the YouTube application, but they did not work with the same impact as Vanced because all the advantages had not yet been implemented. Just to block ads, it's almost as if you had to update the application files every week, if not every day.

Then XPosed came along and that was the first big door that was kicked in, because we were no longer just playing with the application files, but directly with the code in real time by direct injection.

Then other teams like Vanced became more and more important.

In conclusion: It's just a matter of time before other MODs take over (and have already been listed elsewhere). One day we lose another we win.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ashish1989:
I think this mod should continue, as vanced has shutdown
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
This mod is abandoned, it was a constant race against (sometimes daily) YouTube updates. The developer moved on long before vanced was popular.
[Xposed Framework Modules] toolhas4degrees:
This isn't true. Search around github quietly. He's still involved and is being worked on. But on hush bc Google will threaten them also like vanced was
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
If that's true you just breeched that hush ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] toolhas4degrees:
I didn't say what it was called or shared links as I was told not to
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Here is a reborn update to this module.

This update removes YouTube's in-video ads only, unfortunately, the ad cards in the YouTube app are a bit tricky to handle, and some of them seem to be served on the server side since we started to see them on the latest Vanced update.

So there is no ETA for when those ad cards can be supported, feel free to contribute with pull requests.

BUT there is a bonus, this module enables background playback.

This has been tested against YouTube 17.40.40, it should support upcoming updates but may not support old versions of YouTube.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ameshiya:
Welcome Back And Thanks alot for ur great work

Just wanna know if i need to select any things on lsposed because background playback is not working for me

I am on Android 10
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
No you don't need to check anything, could you share your xposed logs?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ameshiya:
On lsposed you cannot activate the module unless you select an app like system framework or a dedicated app
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Yes of course you must select YouTube application on LSXposed, when I said don't need to check anything, i meant the module itself.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ameshiya:
Done and its show yt adaway is active but still the same issue ... on lsposed other modules it gives you a recommended app to select but with ur modules this option its missing
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Then I need to take a look at your xposed logs.
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
New update 5.0.1 to support YouTube beta versions, tested against YouTube 17.41.36.

Now the module is working great after enabling picture-in-picture

Thanks for your great work , wald bladi .

[Xposed Framework Modules] Rom:
Ok nice.

I have pr for a translation too ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] traversone:
hello! what about the (official) Android TV Youtube version?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Medeon:
@wanam I am super excited about the lsposed YouTubeadaway mod. I mean I really appreciate your work. No need to manually update anymore and more secure than YouTube revanced for example, since there's no need to install an apk file. It came just in time for me.

I'd like to see it evolving as gradually more features are added. I'd like to donate to the project, however I ditched PayPal lately.😅 Is there any other method to donate?
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Thanks for your contribution, French translation has been added.

Currently using SmartTube, I don't feel the need to make an effort on YouTube TV, maybe later.

A BTC address has been added, any kind of support is appreciated!

Hi Dev, i still got ads when playing youtube. Here the log. Thanks,
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Your logs seems fine, are you talking about ads cards or in-video ads?
[Xposed Framework Modules] seblefb:
i got video-ads and ads card, but i just read ur post about "New update 5.0.2 supports YouTube 17.42.+ & 17.43.+"

Mybe bcz im using youtube latest vers from PS right?

Sorry for my bad english

*Edit

I was install Version 17.43.37 and ads still showing when playing video
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Then I think it should be an issue with your setup, disable all other modules, restart and try again, and get a screenshot of the ad.
[Xposed Framework Modules] serajr:
Thank you man.

Working great here (android 13 - One UI 5.0 | YT 17.44.35)

(maybe you could add youtube package in the "xposed scope" array to be automatically selected in LSPosed)
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
Done! Thanks for the head up.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Sting1971:
Very great app, congrats to the developer... Is there something like that for YouTube Music?
[Xposed Framework Modules] wanam:
To my knowledge, at least on the old versions back to 2018, all YouTube variants (Go, TV, Kids, Music) had the same core implementation for ads, so the same patches should work, I will see what I can do on the next update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] paradoxxman:
yes, me too would like to say congratulations for this great mod!

I tried YT Revanced but the developers won't include patches with support for "codec override to VP9" and "max resolution" so I had to use YT Vanced , but for some time it showed up a lot of google ads on the Home screen...your module resolves this very elegantly, so I can keep my good old Vanced version along with VP9 and maximum resolution options so that I am able to watch 2160p 60FPS videos without stuttering on an outdated phone hardware and at the same time to be free of ads!

good work!
[Xposed Framework Modules] ElectroYume:
Hello, I really appreciate your work as everybody else here, but i have one issue.

When Im watching video but not in full screen view (top half of screen video and bottom half list of other videos) and i press back button the app instead of going back (like it should) most of the time closes youtube completely back to home screen.

Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] immortel_la:
this is totally godsend, tks so much, youtube vanced lately is plague with ads to the point that it's unbearable. with this module (remember to tick the "remove adcards" option), i can finally enjoy the app again.

you rock!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Lilien:
Hello, nice project, thanks!

Should it be possible to install this with the LSPatch Framework on a not rooted Pixel 7?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Iamtheonewhobarry:
That would be great if they did support it. Revanced seems to be like 100 versions behind current youtube so its a buggy mess. While this module does work with root, it does not currently work with ad cards and Magisk seems to have been abandoned for almost a year until recently so it is also plagued with bugs where you can't even patch Ap files now without it creating problems when running in odin. So I am all for a non root solution as OTA updates tend to not require 10gb+ downloading every 1 week.
[Xposed Framework Modules] resi83:
Is there an update in sight in the near future? The last release is from Feb 2023.

Many thanks.

I've been using the latest version that hasn't been updated since September 2023. Ads are becoming intruding now. Will there be any development on this? Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] fadedout:
This is ancient. There is active development at ReVanced: https://revanced.app https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-patches

Use the ReVanced Manager APK or ReVanced CLI to patch YouTube. The former is more user-friendly for a novice. Xposed is not required.
