mod edit - useless OP quote removed

Could anyone please tell me how to put the APK inside the installer zip? Because while flashing it says update error invalid zip format.
[Android Apps and Games] ADM.GL:
Only thing you have to do, is put apk file into download folder, and change (setting.sh *maginstall* to yes), if you want to work as a magisk module . And flash it through TWRP.

[Android Apps and Games] xell75:
I use an third party app for that, I was just curious.
[Android Apps and Games] Sujay95:
The thing is my Honor 7x twrp doesn't read internal storage . It's a bug they're trying to fix but hasn't happened yet as the phone is quite fresh. So it doesn't read the download folder in internal storage. And thus I want to know how to put the APK inside zip and flash
[Android Apps and Games] TFSBird:
It doesn't work.. I am using the non root version and MicroG. Unfortunately the videos don't start from the point where you watched to and... what is even more unfortunate: The videos I watch are not added to the watching history. So I cannot even find the Videos I watched if I lose them and want to continue to watch later. :(

Can anyone confirm? Do the videos get added into your history on the root version? Thank you! :good::good:
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
Have you tried the suggestions that were given in the past?

Searching with the keyword history should help you get it
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You can use a zip archive app to do it. You can unzip, add the APK, and re zip. Or on a PC you can do it without unzipping. I use the root explorer in rom toolbox pro (I know it's kinda outdated). Extract the zip, put the APK in and compress (standard zip format). Just don't compress the folder, open the folder and select all the files, then select compress. Many ppl make the mistake of trying to compress the folder (that was created by extracting the zip), that usually gives the error you have.

Again

1. Extract the .zip

2. Paste the APK in the folder that was extracted from the zip

3. Select all files in the folder (including the APK)

4. With all the files selected, select compress and name it.

I say name it so it doesn't have the same name as previous zip so you can find it easier.

Hello I searched this thread and didn't find. My problem is I can't install this mod on oreo with magisk 15.2.

I tried install with magisk module downloaded from magisk. And tried manual install with move apk to system/app but didn't help.

I'm running OOS 5. Please help ?

I am facing a severe hard crash issue, while using youtube, the screen goes crazy with sometimes the whole screen turning green or weird lines on the screen with a static beep sound. The phone freezes up and reboots. I may try to logcat it since I don't know when it happens but it happens for sure.

I am using the latest vanced black rooted version (tried both 32 bit and 64 bit versions), also I'm installing it directly to priv-app using file explorer along with its libs folder. I am on ViperOS 7.1.1 and rooted with magisk.

Can someone point out what's the problem?

Same problem on a 5T, Oreo, Magisk 15.2

After the Oreo update, the app renamed itself from Youtube to "any" (which is impossibly to search!) and wouldn't start. Removed the magisk modules and attempted to install the latest version, but it complains that /data/magisk is not set up correctly. Tried downgrading to 14, and installs successfully but 14 doesn't boot on OOS oreo and upgrading to 15.2 afterwards wipes the modules.

The alternative magisk module just removes the youtube app and doesn't replace it.

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 AM ----------

Fixed this, though in a very silly way.

Restored my TWRP backup from Nougat that had 2.6 along with a slightly older version of the app (I've never gotten 2.7 to work) then flashed Oreo immediately followed by Magisk 15.2. Booted the phone and it's working!

[Android Apps and Games] KevinX8:
If you get the "any" issue just use twrp to flash the module, if all else fails just use non root, it has the exact same functionality the only difference is that package name
[Android Apps and Games] adrenochrome25:
first, thanks you very for this project :)

i wanted to benefit from the detach feature, but i wanted too to have 'automatic' updates from the magisk repository, but in the version installed directly from magisk i didnt find any traces of the detach system. So i installed the magisk version from the repository through magisk menu, so at this point the only module installed was

-iYTB from repository

then i installed the universal installer with the config file (MAGINSTALL="YES" , DETACHONLY="YES") and without any iYTBP zip(it seemed the detachonly option was intended for this case), but after the install it ended with 3 magisk modules installed :

- iYTB-detach from universal installer

- iYTB from universal installer

- iYTB from repository

i was expecting the universal installer would have detected that a iYTB version was already present and wouldnt install an additional unwanted stub.

Moreover, at this point no youtube app was available at all to the system, so i removed the "stub" module(iYTB from universal installer), and there was still no youtube app available, so i had to remove and and reinstall the iYTB module from repository.

Now i have the config i wanted : iYTB from repository and detached.

Maybe you could do something in next versions to ease a little bit this process :)
[Android Apps and Games] jackfacespoon:
I now also have the same issue as a few other unrooted users have mentioned - the 'please check your network connection' error when trying to sign in.

Yesterday I changed my main Google account password, and later noticed that the YouTube app was giving me a connection error and wouldn't load anything at all. I assumed they might be linked so signed out.

Now I get the attached when I try to sign back in.

Here's the kicker though, I CAN and have added a second account instead, one I've never used with YouTube before, and it works fine. I just can't switch back to my old account.

I've now installed the latest available versions of iytbp and the customised Micro G app, and have also wiped data and cache for both apps without success. Even after doing that, my main account was listed as the default option but same problem.

As there are now a few of us with this issue, does anyone have any suggestions for next steps??

[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu.:
Ya know you don't "have" to upgrade versions every time a new one comes out.

YouTube plays videos = check

YouTube plays in background = check

No advertisements = check

Why bother upgrading. If it's not broke, don't change it. Don't misinterpret I'm all for the devs to keep up with Google's updates of the application but for the end user if you have it working why bother altering something that already is working for you?

The lib folder for iyt. And no it won't break other apps, it just may affect YT in other ways. Like 360° videos or something. I've seen some ppl in the magisk module thread say that flashing the magisk repo version in twrp seems to work also. So you can try uninstalling the version you have then downloading repo version (but don't install in magisk mananger, just download) and flash it in recovery.

Hi guys.I d like to install YouTube Vanced [BLACK/WHITE THEME].I have a Samsung S7 Edge with stcok fw.I rooted my phone with Magisk 15.2.I read the procedure...using Magisk Module Method.

If I understand:

-Download the official iYTBP Vanced Universal Installer and iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh

- Download the YouTube Vanced apk(i have a S7 Edge...)iYTBP-v12.45.56-b01.12.00-minAPI21-

arm64-v8a

-480dpi-black-v2.7-vanced,right?

-Either put the apk inside the iYTBP Vanced Universal Installer or in the /sdcard/Download/ folder

I do not understand this step.

I have to unpack the zip?

I have to put the YouTube Vanced apk inside the zip?And then i compress?

- Download settings file from mediafire mirror or extract it from zip (config_files folder)I extracted it from the zip.

-[OPTIONAL] Set DETACH="YES" to detach Youtube from playstore to disable update notifications

- Flash the iYTBP Vanced Universal Installer in TWRP recovery

-Reboot

Could you help me understand?THX in advance.

Try the one in magisk/iytbp Vanced (just put somewhere safe or just rename it in case you need to put it back). If that doesn't do it, try the one in system/app/YouTube. I'm pretty sure it's the one in magisk though (I've never had that problem I'm not on Oreo)

Hi, I have a problem with detach from Play store. Everything is just fine except the youtube is still attached to Play Store although I did DETACH=YES and DETACHONLY=YES in the iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh
[Android Apps and Games] night0crawler:
Hello there. I just read your above quoted reply to this person and I started questioning myself whether I was doing something wrong all along? You mentioned that to detach from playstore one needs (iYTBP_only_detach_from_playstore.plz) in case one uses SuperSU as Root Manager & on the other hand one needs (iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh) in case one uses Magisk as root manager.

But you just mentioned in comment of yours that having correct DPI just stops showing update if the update is the version you already have. What do you mean by that, do you mean that the detach script is not required if the DPI is correct?

At present I'm using SuperSU as my root manager on my Moto G4 Plus with RR-N 1230 build by jleeblanch. I'm actually confused coz now I'm doubting whether I'm using correct DPI version or not.

Earlier Droid info used to show my DPI 320 & now when I'm checking it shows DPI 336. Previously once it showed 240 as well, it kinda varies. So what DPI should I use exactly?

I'm using iYTBP 12.45.56 minAPI21 armeabi-v7a-320dpi. Along with that I used iYTBP_only_detach_from_playstore.plz. Well with this script it isn't showing update in Playstore and it works fine and w/t it the update appears in Playstore.

So I'm wondering whether or not I used the wrong DPI & didn't actually needed the .plz file to detach from playstore?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
If you use the nodpi or the wrong DPI, playstore will show an update even if the update is the exact YT version you have installed. This is without using detach. If you have correct DPI you would only see an update if there actually was an update.

With the detach script you should never see an update because it is detached. I didn't say detach was not needed. I was just clarifying the difference between having an update notification for having incorrect or nodpi. Letting that user know that simply having correct DPI will not prevent all update notifications, only ones for the version you already have.
[Android Apps and Games] basmeuter:
What I did and worked is only day yes at MAGINSTALL and DETACH, then installed the universal installer in magisk, then installed the version in the download folder, then deleted the universal version (but keep detach)

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
If using the "use_this_settings.sh" then you don't need .plz files. One or the other. In settings.sh file you change the no to yes for the things you want, like magisk or detach. Or just the magisk.plz and detach.plz and not settings.sh. but yes just have them in download folder on internal storage and flash universal installer. It finds all the files and installs accordingly.
