It worked fine however I felt an absurd drop of frames if I put it to run in the background or with the screen off and then re-watch. Maybe it's something in my mi5, or probably because it's like a "trick" or the resolution of the video (1080p 60fps) and it was made more for songs and so on. Even so, great app. Saved me, I could not live without. Spared me back to Android 6 !!

You know this the official no modded Youtube app,right?

Wait for the modded version,or use 12.19.56 version and be patient.

[Android Apps and Games] Bamfist:
Hi i downloaded the apk put it in a folder named YouTube and put it in the /system/app directory with the apk inside and am stuck on the permission number part. According to my file manager with root the folder is read/write/executable by group and owner but other is unchecked, same with the apk. What should i do here? Also installing the apk doesnt work. Noob here could use some help. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Use this permission for folders
[Android Apps and Games] Bamfist:
Thanks! I was able to figure out what the numbers mean for the permissions, however now that i go to set the permissions for the apk, my file manager freezes (Amaze file explorer). I've tried root explorer in the app store, but it gives me a pop up saying something along the lines of files permission cannot be modified. Any ideas? I'm on a Oneplus 3 running OOS 4.0.3 based on android 7.0

I did but i have no youtube, do i need original youtube installed?

Never mind, I forgot to only have that apk in the folder, is all good now.

All I need now is to set resolution to maximun or at least 1080 as default

Just found out that not all videos play in the background, and I have to close the app to make it work again [emoji25]

It's normal. The mod isn't kept when you update YouTube. You have to download the latest version here or disable auto update for YouTube in play store. Also you can detach Youtube from play store using this mod https://xdaforums.com/android/softw...market-links-theme-ready-apps-t3447494/page17

Did you reboot your device

Also tried the regular putting it manually and setting permissions and nothing, doesn't show up.
[Android Apps and Games] Sam Nakamura:
As written on magisk thread (Q&A section) if using magisk you should keep this file on your phone:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/collection-magisk-modules-v2-t3575758/post72327720

Flash it in recovery, then you have /magisk and can delete the module inside this folder and reboot..
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Flashing via Magisk never works for me either. For me, I must manually place the apk (inside a folder) in \system\app then reboot for it to work.
[Android Apps and Games] juanshop:
Tried that as well, and nothing, I set the proper permissions a d all that good stuff, reboot, etc and nothing, app just does that appear.

[Android Apps and Games] Riku Azhurlar:
No it's not that. If your trying to install it manually through the package installer since the signature is broken from the mods it says it's corrupt if you install it like the OP says and reboot it works fine because then it doesn't check the signature. Android apps are basically universal in some regards when you build an app the single APK can for from lolipop to nougat without multiple versions

Is there any way with this app (I see no way to do it on the official one) to make it so the volume doesn't get lower for incoming notifications? I use navigation while I am driving and I listen to Youtube with this app, but it's so annoying when I miss an important part of the video because it gets super low when navigation starts talking. I would be able to hear it just fine if the Youtube app did not lower its volume. My music apps let me disable volume lowering on notifications and I was just wondering if there was any way to do it on this one (sadly, googling this problem gives me no results as the search terms are too broad).
[Android Apps and Games] oux:
nvm ?
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
You're not actually watching anything wile driving, right? :o Can't you just turn off the audio for navigation? I think this "problem" lies much deeper than the app, it's more likely to be a general Android feature that regulates this behavior by default. It probably has to be programmed into the app itself to disable (as with your music apps) and since it doesn't exist in YouTube, it won't be possible (still, it's an educated guess, never say never). I personally would find the opposite more annoying.

Don't think of this app as a reprogrammed version of the original YouTube. It's still original but has some minor tweaks. Nothing is changed.

[Android Apps and Games] Sam Nakamura:
Well, that's bad luck then...

People report regularly that ads start to show up from nowhere, for some they're gone after few days for others it stays this way, likely produced server sided, no one knows yet and therfore not much you can do, just try to clear app data (from settings, apps, youtube) as a last thing...
