Thanks! I'll be sure to let you know if it helped, and by the way I've been looking at your issue and it's the app that doesn't rotate right?? Every other app you have in your phone works fine in doing so??
[Android Apps and Games] xichael:
Do I need to uninstall/reboot iYTBP before updating to a new version? I know I do when first installing, but is it the same procedure for an update, or can I just overwrite the APK?

Could you add this question to the FAQ?
[Android Apps and Games] Bobthahog:
You can just install the new 1. I did on my S8+ with unrooted version and on my S5 using Magisk module.
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
That's correct
[Android Apps and Games] xichael:
Good to know, thanks! I'll try it out. Really hope this can get addressed in the FAQ. It's a pretty big step to be able to skip if possible. It would save people a lot of trouble.
[Android Apps and Games] T.A.R.D.I.S.:
Works fine on S7 Edge with Magisk 15.3 and BatMan Rom 1.5

Root themed version 12.49.55.

Thanks

In the new v12.49.55 blacked app running on Pixel 2, I can't see the buttons (but they work) from navigation bar, is just a black bar.
[Android Apps and Games] Striatum_bdr:
Please don't quote full long posts like this. Annoying to scroll when you read on a phone. Quoting only the first lines or the relevant part is enough.
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
Well I discovered something interesting now, if I go on YouTube on a tab, it'll send me to the website, but if I click on the Desktop version on the top corner, it sends me to the app, but if go incognito and do the same procedure, it'll just keep me there for some reason, it's not really the result I wanted and probably won't find it useful to me in the future but I still hope for anymore suggestions in fixing this issue of mine, but for your case, try uninstalling it and download the latest version using this link:

http://iytbp.onlineyoutube.com

I'm not sure if uninstalling and reinstalling this one will get rid of the MicroG module so if it is removed you can just use the one you downloaded, I just hope downloading from that website doesn't give you the problem I'm going through, but somehow it happens to certain people, I'll continue to look for more about your issue :) just let me know if it works because I don't think downloading one over another existing file will work so I really recommend deleting and reinstalling.

When I pinch in (zoom in) on the the original YouTube app then the video size changes into 18:9 screen ratio.

I've installed the rootless edition of iYTBP, everything is fine but the app doesn't support 18:9 screens I suppose?

That's so disappointing ?
[Android Apps and Games] DocteurN:
No, pinch in works well on the no root 12.49.55 release (Pixel 2 XL).
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
That's a lot but you should be able to have the option weather to set YouTube as the default it should ask you after you do some type of search.

As far as these files it doesn't make a difference.May work once or twice but that's it.Does it with all versions.
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
Well, how did you get it to ask you?? Did you go to the settings of the app or did you go to the app settings (YouTube settings, not the phone settings)? Or did you just go on Chrome (normal or incognito?) and went on YouTube and it asked you? Because I've tried everything that goes in my knowledge and don't know what else to do.. maybe I'm missing something that's so obvious that I simply cannot see because I even try to look up this question by others but I've only found two others with my issue who have been unanswered until me so I'm trying hard to get this app to that full potential. :/
[Android Apps and Games] j-a-d-z:
Same for me on my Nexus 5X. Magisk black.
[Android Apps and Games] trunkenstein:
Maybe I'm stupid or missing something, just downloaded the new APK (12.49.55) and tried to install it.

The installer just says the package is corrupted.

I've installed the Version 12.45.56 via the "Using Magisk Module Method" and flashed the "iYTBP Vanced Universal Installer" via TWRP (My device is rooted via magisk).

Do i need to flash ist again with the new APK? Or can i just copy the apk to the corresponding folder on my device?

//EDIT: OK, it seems that I need to flash the whole thing again, any idea how to install only the APK via root, not using the shell? Will just moving the APK to /system/app work?

Hi Guys,

I'm going crazy. Although I did everything step by step It wouldn't update/flash back to iYTBP.

I had iYTBP v12.45.56 and everything was ok. Yesterday I don't know how the YouTube got updated to the new Official version and ever since then I can't change it back to iYTBP.

I tried to go back to iYTBP v12.45.56 flashing as usual no go (the app disappeared). I tried the new installer with the new version didn't work either. I tried to go from scratch following post #3817, back to the built-in app and then flash iYTBP still doesn't work (this method just didn't change the built-in app). Flashed everything with TWRP 3.0.2.4.

Please help (I don't want to use the non-root version).

[Android Apps and Games] Lownita:
I tried installing the apk as a magisk module, including a detach module using the latest installer.zip (2.8). My problem is that a youtube module was created as expected, but there is no detach module to be found in magisk manager. Also, youtube is listed in my playstore, so it was not detached at all. I tried both detach methods (DETACH/DETACHONLY) and both yielded the same results. I am running omni rom 8.1 on a OP3.

This method was working perfectly fine for me a few weeks ago, so it has to either be an issue with my rom or the installer 2.8.zip is faulty :)

Thanks in advance!

[Android Apps and Games] DuskGolem:
Did you flashed the 2.8 installer over the previous installation?
[Android Apps and Games] Lownita:
No, it was a clean flash every time. I even restored a backup to avoid any interferences.
[Android Apps and Games] DuskGolem:
Ok, is youtube a system app in your rom by default?
[Android Apps and Games] Lownita:
No, youtube was not installed before I flashed the installer. As I said, it's not a problem with the youtube app/module at all, it's the detach module that is missing. :)
[Android Apps and Games] DuskGolem:
Try this:

Uninstall the module and reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot again.

After this try to install the module by first twrp, if this doesn't work repeat the process but now flash the installer using magisk manager.

P.S: your uploaded settings.sh script is fine dont change it
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
Try Google Assistant feature
[Android Apps and Games] Lownita:
Thanks, I didn't think of flashing the whole thing through magisk manager. It's working as intended now :) Flashing through twrp didn't work well for me this time.
[Android Apps and Games] DuskGolem:
No problem.We all are here to learn:);)
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
I tried looking for my issue and got nothing unfortunately, I really wish I knew how it worked for you :/

hi all. quick question - can i download videos using this mod? whenever i try, a notification pops up saying that i need to try youtube red. i always click no - should i be clicking yes? and if so, will there be any negative repercussions thereafter?

much thanks in advance :)
[Android Apps and Games] DuskGolem:
If by download you mean "available offline" then yes but if you mean download as a separte video file then no.

[Android Apps and Games] cognitivedissonance:
So, this is kinda troubleshooting 101, but I think some ppl may benefit from it anyway.

My Issue

I had successfully installed the previous root version of vanced YouTube and also successfully detached it from the Play Store. One day I noticed that a YouTube update was showing in the app store when it shouldn't be (that's the whole point of detaching it.)

When I tried to update to the new version, things looked like they went fine in TWRP, but when I rebooted YouTube didn't show up anywhere. I tried using the uninstall script and then reinstalling. I tried detaching from the play store again to see if it made a difference. Nothing worked.

The Solution

Finally I took my file explorer and did a deep search of the root drive. It came up with a couple files which were clearly associated with YouTube. I deleted them, booted to TWRP, flashed the installer again and just like that, it worked perfectly and YouTube showed back up.

tl;dr - if you're having issues, uninstall everything, do a deep search for "YouTube" in the root partition and delete the remaining files.
[Android Apps and Games] preference:
Same here, delete the extraneous lib files and your install should work
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
That's great!! Now I just need my phone able to handle 2k or 4k resolution vids without buffering somehow since the max resolution override seems to help but not with buffers lol

[Android Apps and Games] ca_guri01:
Red marker is done by me to avoid exposing my email id, anyways the problem is solved by reinstalling both microG and themed version, earlier i was installing it on over previous verisons.

[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
It was working for a while and now it's not.Once I closed YouTube went back to not working when I opened it back up.

As far as buffering on HD videos well that could be several things but start with your internet speed or maybe try another version of Vanced Youtube APK.
[Android Apps and Games] uudruid74:
You don't need to. Why does everyone complicate this?

When you see YouTube in the update list, tap the YouTube entry to bring up the description page for the app. Now, tap the "3 dots" menu. You will see an entry that reads "Auto Update". Unchecked this and it won't update unless you do so manually.
[Android Apps and Games] WorldOfJohnboy:
I have an Unlocked Pixel 2 XL running the latest January 8.1 android update and Magisk Rooted. Can someone please point me to the correct/latest version of the Vanced app I should run?

---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

Alternatively, if you are Rooted and use Titanium Backup, couldn't you just Freeze the stock YT system app?
[Android Apps and Games] Devansh Bhinde:
Using the manual root method.

Edit:Worked after deleting data from Android folder.
[Android Apps and Games] AndroidHtc101:
Thanks for the new update. You could probably not update this app for months and still be working smoothly :)
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
Alright then, and dang it, there's gotta be a solution to that, I honestly don't know how it's working for me and not you, it could be either the version you have or file download, I don't want to say it's your phone because I think you said you have the LG G5 like me, but that could also be something.
[Android Apps and Games] fire_of_mind:
Will it be possible to add rewind by sweeping finger on screen. Changing volume or brightness by sweeping would be nice too.

[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
Yea deleting data or reinstall fixes it for a minute but it goes right back to not working.Not like before it didn't work at all and yes LG G5 with lastest T-Mobile firmware.
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
That certainly is a weird problem you got there.. we both have an LG G5 and I even use T-Mobile, if that's the case then it definitely has to be the kind of file you downloaded the apk and the file for the MicroG you downloaded because if it works for me then it has to work for you. Are you using the latest version of YouTube Vanced??
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
What version did you install?

What is the "latest" firmware is on your LG atm?

Are you using the rooted or nonroot yt? Try both and see what results you get. And post it here please..
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
Latest version I believe.I might just use the stock Youtube.This rotation issue is a problem.

Have you found any solutions from others aside me to fix this?? Because I honestly have no idea what to do to fix that if we're using the same phone and carrier and works for me and not for you.

[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
No problem
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
Using the same nonroot version myself they just added to the Op.

Sounds like the video rotation is giving you a headache:eek:. Unless I'm missing something here.

I get the same issue on mine from time to time but don't let it bother me too much. I just swipe down the vid b4 rotating my phone tap small box done and it works every time. That's just 2 clicks! After doing it once you shouldn't have a rotation while using YT.
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
Oh ok.Ill try that but I like to watch videos in my car while driving.Got one of those magnetic mounts.
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
It does not ask me whatsoever, what the heck.
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
While driving or in traffic? Driving and watching don't sound to safe to be on the road. :eek:

Btw I FC the YT App just to see if the rotation would still work and mine is working so far so good. Don't really understand the rotate bug but something I can easily overlook because the app works flawlessly for me.

I just have to make sure to check my ad block has YT whitelisted for my history to work right.
[Android Apps and Games] AtrixHDMan:
Try watching a video on your Google Now feed application and open it up it should give you that option

[Android Apps and Games] WorldOfJohnboy:
Officially confused. Pixel 2 XL (Unlocked but on Verizon). Bootloader is unlocked and Rooted with Magisk. I uninstalled the YT system app via Titanium BU. Downloaded minAPI21 arm64 alldpi Vanced Rooted not themed apk and it won't let me install. Do I need to do something inside Magisk?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You have to flash it with the universal installer and either the magisk.plz file or the use_this_settings.sh. you can't just install the root version like a regular app.
[Android Apps and Games] jascolli:
I use the twrp installer zip they have provided.

Place the apk you downloaded into your sdcards download folder. In twrp, flash the "installation zip". That should install the app for you.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Do you have that t mobile binge on thing? That might cause buffering at higher resolution.
[Android Apps and Games] That_Guy_Jay:
Well you were right, it asked and sent me to the app, but it didn't work on my Chrome app, that's what I use to search things up more. I assume you use the Google app instead?? If I looked a video up on either normal or incognito on CHROME while I had the OGYouTube, it sent me to the app, with the vanced app, now if I do it sends me to the site and if I tap on desktop on the top corner of the site version, it sends me on the app, in incognito it keeps me on the site still, this is pretty strange. But I can assume you use the Google app right??
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
That's how I install each update even though my ROM uses Magisk. There's no problem at all with using this method. Some say flashing the mod in Magisk Manager is easier.

[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
Hi. If you seek any help, it's best to add all the technical information of the setup you currently have (YT version, Android version, ...) and, since there are a few ways, mention the install method you used. If you copied the apk and set its permissions manually, you need to delete the current one, replace it with the new one and set the permissions again. If you're using the Magisk module, you can just flash it through Magisk.
