I have installed the MicroG suggested here. When I flashed the magisk module from the third post, when I open YT, it doesn't recognize the MicroG.

If I try to install the apk from the first post, it says the apk is corrupt.

I really want to switch to this from og YT. Og YT works with this version of microg btw...

FINALLY! A working version YouTube_v12.23.60(nodpi)(Grey_Black_v1.1).apk - one that has a different icon than the rest. Whew! :o
[Android Apps and Games] xHaste:
Hello,

first of all, good job guys and thanks for all the hard work!

I have 2 questions:

- Would it be possible to do minAPI21 NON-ROOT version with DPI480 a bit more often? I believe it's the best version for current generation of Samsung Galaxy devices.

- The new 12.41.xx should have native support for pinch-zoom to fullscreen for 18:9 widescreens, is it enabled for Pixel2 phones only or does it work on Galaxy devices as well?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
If you're using the magisk version you don't need micro g. At all. Micro g is only for non root versions. Check post 2 for more instructions. You can use the installer to install the root versions as magisk. So you don't have to wait for modules anymore.
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
1.) we are doing ALL AVAILABLE variants so the order is first it has to be AVAILABLE then it can be done.

2.) new version is in the works. this version needs some bigger attention from all of "us" again (stop laughing big G!).
[Android Apps and Games] dibt359:
Why if I don't have microg installes, magisk's version refuses to run?

Now that I have YT microg, instead of the regular ones, I can't access microg settings, is there a way to do it? Or to have both versions installed? I read somewhere that it's possible to have both installed, but regular microg refuses to be installed now.

[Android Apps and Games] wooki:
Hello there,

I've got a rather unusual request to fight this YouTube app update horror all the time. Could you maybe create a version that adds a high version number in front of the current version? For example instead of current YouTube version of 12.40.60 this mods version would be 999.12.40.60.

This way everyone knows when it's time to update but doesn't have to fight with playstore disconnect mods or updating by accident and other stuff all the time. :)
[Android Apps and Games] obol2:
Latest version fix that problem (play store update). Well this mod name is same as YouTube version because it is always up2date. When using own version number it would be more confusing
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
No. We won't be doing that
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Because it doesn't work. See the attachment.
[Android Apps and Games] xHaste:
Hi, thanks for the answer.

However I was talking specifically about NONROOT versions. In the download locations there are usually just 2 versions of NONROOT APKs. Could you please point me to location where I can download other NONROOT versions?
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
Non root version is universal.

You can use that on all devices.

There are no other variants
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
ha this is great! :D
[Android Apps and Games] Piix_:
Nice job !
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
For magisk version, it works on your regular Google play services. You don't need any micro g. IYTBP is running instead of regular YouTube. If you want it to run along side some other YouTube variant, use the non root version with micro g for iytbp.

Thank you so much for this. Using Non-root, no-ad version by [MENTION=5331708]laura almeida[/MENTION] (Post #3) Works flawlessly.

No more going to the tedious "firefox in desktop mode" for background play.

Since both the unmodded, original youtube app & this one co-exists, is there a way to make this one the default so that apps redirect youtube links to this one?

That is good news. Samsung has free Test Lab service, which allows you to test your apps for free on real phones.

You can test and even debug your apps there if you want: http://developer.samsung.com/remotetestlab/galaxy/rtlDeviceList.action

Btw. I have my S8 mostly for debug purposes so if you want some more feedback I'm willing to help.

Hi, I don't understand what is going on perhaps you'll be able to help me.

Any clues as to what I did wrong?
