Thanks for the update, works as expected, play store don't show update anymore
[Android Apps and Games] okeck22:
Maybe I have a Problem “or” Google changed something with the YouTube installation.

I de-installed YouTube, cleaned the Phone with SD Maid and rebooted.

Because my Problem occurs with the latest YouTube apk, I downloaded an older one v.12.27.5 and installed it by tipping the apk in Root Explorer, the File installs “BUT” there is no YouTube Folder in system/app. I can't find it via the search function from Root Explorer either but again, the App starts normal.

P.S In Play Store Youtube shows Deinstall, instead of deactivate like it does in the Past on the left Button...
[Android Apps and Games] igeekyayush:
Can you please update root installation steps.

What I understood so far is to download the "iYTBP-youtube-vanced-installer.zip" and place it in same folder with "Youtube_12.32.59-1232592300_minAPI16(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)-vanced-backgroundplayback.apk" and flash the zip from custom recovery. Am I missing anything?
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
there is nothing to update its still: u can put the installer were u want but u should put the Youtube_12.32.59-1232592300_minAPI16(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)-vanced-backgroundplayback.apk into your Download folder on the sdcard (internal if u have a external too). then go into recovery and flash the iYTBP-youtube-vanced-installer.zip, thats it.
[Android Apps and Games] JoseAlarcon:
Thank you very much for your modified application, it works perfectly, I hope you can keep it updated.

For those who do not know the permissions are (I used ES File Explorer):

1) In folder it has to be: rwx r-x r-x

2) In the APK as: rw- r-- r--

Thank you for your work Master_T, very satisfied :D
[Android Apps and Games] rippledrums:
That's what I said, nodpi version will be updated by the Play Store to the version corresponding to your device's dpi.

You have to find out your device's dpi (160, 240, 480, etc) and download the corresponding or closest version. For example: for my OnePlus 3T I download the 480dpi version.

What device are you using?
[Android Apps and Games] st4ik:
You were right. I installed 320dpi for nexus 4. It's all ok.
[Android Apps and Games] topperdoggle:
Any chance of a Magisk 480dpi build? Then I could stick with Magisk, and not worry about updates. :)
[Android Apps and Games] DEVILOPS 007:

Yep, from that post:

"All Magisk modules are using the minAPI21 nodpi variant of [MENTION=3279788]ZaneZam[/MENTION]'s iYTBP unless otherwise stated."

Question all of us literally poor arm users are wondering. By no means is this a question of when - curious what some like ZZ, Razerman, Laura, arter etc. think about the requirement for Oreo specific YT with the deprecation of arm architecture - will building arm apks even be possible anymore for Oreo users on custom ROMs running 8.x on arm devices? I'm curious how the background stuff Google does with YT servers bodes for this - would love to hear someone smarter than me say well be safe, cuz it sounds like a possible problem to me. Thanks for everything guys - running great on Nougat :good:
[Android Apps and Games] topperdoggle:
Thanks! I did try to search the thread, not well I guess...
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
I can't say for sure but I will try to answer this Q.

The only difference in different architecture builds are the library files inside the apk.

I can take a arm64 YouTube oreo build and copy the library files from arm minAPI21 builds of the same version number and recompile, then it will work.

But then again, will it be useful ?

Because YouTube and many other gapps requires Google Play Services to be installed.

From what I heard is that there won't be any ARM gapps for android oreo.

But we still have microG. Which should work on android Oreo.

So I think arm users will be safe.
[Android Apps and Games] wrongway213:
There are totally already arm gapps for Oreo, so I can now fill in that blank for anyone reading. Thanks so much, Laura! With that, gonna do something I typically wouldn't and drop a link here:

Oreo arm gapps courtesy of frap129 for any who were unaware they exist or who were unsure whether to prepare arm stuff for microG only, etc.: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120757579
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
Ohh nice.. Then we don't have to worry about other individual apps.
[Android Apps and Games] kArLiN_dRaKE_MX:
Using your phone:

Download the APK for your cpu architecture

Use a file manager to place the APK in an empty folder, so it contains only the APK

Use a file manager that can write to /system (i.e: has root support) to copy the folder that contains the APK to /system/app

Use the same file manager to set permission 755 on the folder that contains the APK and permission 644 to the APK file itself

Reboot

Enjoy!

Using ADB:

Download the correct version for your CPU architecture

Enable ADB debug on your device and connect your phone via usb

Open a terminal in the directory where you downloaded the modded iYTBP apk and issue the following commands:

Code:

adb root

adb remount

adb push iytbp-12.05.53_arm64.apk /system/app

adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/iytbp-12.05.53_arm64.apk

adb reboot

enjoy!

Wow, what a great bug report. Now that we know exactly what the problem is, we can definitely help you solve it.
[Android Apps and Games] okeck22:
Like I wrote before, File Installation does not work anymore, something has changed. I did a Clean install of the Superman Rom, downloaded Installer File and latest arm64 480dpi for my S7. After Installation in recovery and booting into System, YouTube is gone from appdrawer. And if I try to do the process manualy, I get the following message from Titanium Backup at trying to delete YouTube...System Application can not be removed, apk not found. Looks like Google ist Messing with the Installation path but then again, searching for the YouTube apk in Root via Root Explorer Brings up nothing.

[Android Apps and Games] Velfess:
I'm using vanced version and app auto updates UI. Not from Play store (I turn off auto update), but from somewhere else. Default/old interface is nice red and allows swiping left/right to switch between screens, and new one is ugly and doesn't allow swiping. After reinstalling new interface appears after few hours. Tried resigning APK, but it breaks the app. Is there a way to keep default UI?
[Android Apps and Games] J_M_V_S:
As stated many times before, it's a server side switch. For the time being there's nothing you can do except trying to find a way to solve it yourself.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
That old layout you have in your picture is not there anymore in the new version of youtube. And the right "white" one is the newest. There is one layout in the middle which is a hybrid of these two. But the swiping feature is missing completely in the new version. Or at least this is what I've seen.

Gotcha. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
That's your OEM messing up with the theme.

I have no such device to investigate and test that specific OEM.

So probably it will never be fixed, especially for android 4.x.x

I recommend you to switch to non themed version.
[Android Apps and Games] Safal Oraon:
best option to avoid these circumstances is to install nodpi version. Simple is that !
[Android Apps and Games] beatschubser:
Thank you all so much for your great work! The grey/black theme looks awesome. YouTube background playback is one of the reasons I always rooted my phones, which I cannot do with my current one. So I'm very happy to see all these features coming to the non-root version as well.
[Android Apps and Games] dasti555:

[Android Apps and Games] Samantha Jones:
great app, which i have been searching for long, thank you...
[Android Apps and Games] SkaboXD:
I use non-root version, and it works good, i just have some (a lot) questions to ask.

- can you make youtube background playback to show notification all time like xposed module?

- can you make layout switch between new and old one?

- can you add auto-replay function like in YourTube + xposed module?

- can you add switch to disable double tap to seek function on YouTube settings?

- can you force enable ExoPlayer instead of default one?

- can you disable share function, i find it useless?

Sorry if i am annoying with a lot of questions, but if all of this be implemented, YouTube app would be perfect.

I asked this before, but developers wasn't online, so i will ask last time.
[Android Apps and Games] LOCKhart:
2. The old layout is removed in the new apks so that isn't possible.

6. The share function is used by many users, myself included so the chances of the developer removing it are very slim.
[Android Apps and Games] tsts:
Thank you for your reply.

I understand.
[Android Apps and Games] okeck22:
I did a clean install of my Rom again but this Time used Magisk instead of Superuser, with the new Magisk Modul all works fine again, Big Kudos, love it... :)
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
1. Maybe if it doesn't break PIP mode

2. No, Old layout doesn't exist anymore.

3. WIP, NO ETA

4. No, Built in features won't be removed unless it's an ad.

5. Most probably not.

6. Same as 4.

"Download "MOD-arter97-youtube-vanced-installer.zip" (NOTE: only for Android 4.4+. if u are using older systems u have to install manually)

Download any of the provided apks for example "Youtube_12.27.53-1227532300_minAPI16(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)-vanced-vp9-backgroundplayback.apk" and make sure

it's the only file with that name (not with a ...(1).apk addendum because script doesn't see it anymore then) and don't put multiple versions into download folder as then

only the alphabetical last one get's installed.

Boot into your recovery and flash "iYTBP-youtube-vanced-installer.zip" -> everything gets installed!"

... So do I use "MOD-arter97-youtube-vanced-installer.zip" or "iYTBP-youtube-vanced-installer.zip", because above it says to download the former, but to flash the latter.

EDIT: latest update is a theme update only so we (respectively [MENTION=5331708]laura almeida[/MENTION], thx in advance!!)

can do it relatively fast but only 3 variants available yet so we will wait till more variants pop up.

meanwhile use the

JUST released

available 12.32.59

its still veeeery fresh

:)
[Android Apps and Games] jineshpatel30:
I think you should wait for a day or two when new minor popup on Play.

bcz updating these many variants on every minor updates seems tedious.

even if you are willing to do it, google doesn't update minors to every DPI & architecture , if they are gonna do it for most device, they'll show up on apkmirror within 2 days from past couple of version history, if not there will be another minor around the corner :p

so this will give you little time to decide whether it's good idea to update vanced or not ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Works just fine with the Oreo builds already...
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
i was editing the post now exactly this is included. yah it makes only sense if that is a greater update

hence we anyway wait. but the thing is not to provide every version the thing is to keep the mod up and running

with the new versions as this stuff is much work and we have to know what comes next and if we have to do things new

;) so this is always interesting to analyse at first. if we update or not is also a matter of if all is still possible

(see the unused work of [MENTION=4714254]Razerman[/MENTION]'s theme switcher, that was bad timing)

so it's more about that, at least for us modders. for the others it's important because of the annoying

playstore update thing. :)

(still using microG provided by Razerman)... However, I had a curious and alarming malfunction of this app called "Auto Hide Soft Keys" when phone really went crazy while on iYTBP. Even shutting the phone down was an achievement, since almost every app started opening and closing randomly fast. Had to get rid of the conflicting AHSK. Nevermind; I had to make my choice. It was useful but also not very stable anyway. Also, had to disable stock YouTube app because notifications linked me straight to it instead of iYTBP; but so far, everything's working right.

Copy it to /system/apps/YouTube/YouTube.apk and give it right permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] nirogu325:
Now you know how to do it yourself. That's what the zip does. Oh and if you want to do the permissions part even faster, next time highlight the main YouTube folder and while putting the right permissions for the folder, tap below where it says "Also set on all sub-folders and files". That automatically sets everything inside that folder with the right permissions (you'll see when you try).

[Android Apps and Games] TheLastBoyScout:
How did you get this to work? I have tried installing several times, and every time I boot back into my phone, there isn't a YouTube app anymore.

I have tried both the .zip file method, as well as manually installing to no avail. When I did the manual install I kept getting "Google Play Service" has stopped messages.

Granted, Android Oreo is new, and thus not without its hiccups.

I am running Android O on a Pixel XL.
