Anyone here using the magisk version with an S8 or S8+? For some reason, after I clear youtube data and launch the app the fill button works, but after a couple app relaunches it doesn't fill the screen properly (stretches the video vertically while keeping the black bars).

You won't tell no difference with hdr on or off as the pixel xl doesn't have a hdr display

That issue is with the Samsung rom itself.

Try googling it or reddit.

Bug

In the non-root vanced version of iYTBP, you can't access your offline library when offline. The library tab keeps on loading, still trying to find a new connection, instead of just loading with a single downloads option. There is a workaround - searching for a video you know you've saved offline, but it's still annoying.

I changed the password on my Google account and now I can't seem to log in this youtube app anymore. The account is listed when I try to login but fails to connect, it can't be removed and if I try to add the same account again, it says the account is already added. I tried adding another account and it worked.

I had this same problem on another phone after I changed my google password this app stopped logging in.

Is there any solution to this?
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
Root or non root version ?
[Android Apps and Games] ginathaifa:
Non-root version, although my phone is rooted. I tried deleting cache and clearing data in app list, but the account doesn't get removed so I can add it again using the new password.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
You have to remove it from the accounts list in the phones settings. It's kind of an global account. If you had another apps that used this custom microG, those would have the same accounts available as the iYTBP YouTube.
[Android Apps and Games] ginathaifa:
Thanks, that worked. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Guids:
Great work. I have two questions:

Is there a way to make this the default YouTube app instead of the original firing up?

Can the fit to screen functionality be implemented for the Samsung s8?

Unrooted black theme
[Android Apps and Games] Didgeridoohan:
Others with this issue have been able to fix it by completely uninstalling Magisk and reinstalling it again. A couple of options.

Use the uninstall option in the Manager.

Uninstall Manager and flash the latest uninstaller in recovery.

After that you can install the latest Magisk version and everything should hopefully work again.

Thread isn't for discussing new stock YT versions - these guys know when they come out before we do... ETA style posts don't do anyone any good, so please refrain from these. It'll be here when it's at the excellent standard these guys have come to be known for in such short time.

Hello. Could you allow viewing at 30fps on videos originally uploaded in 720p or greater at 60fps? YouTube has these options but keeps it hidden, as you can see in the NewPipe app.
[Android Apps and Games] faz712:
seems the latest non-root downloads on AFH aren't non-root versions – package name is com.google.android.youtube instead of com.lara.android.youtube

so APK fails to install

[Android Apps and Games] pratik.chabria:

[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
YouTube app

does not

have these options nor does it keep it hidden, believe me.

You cannot compare and contrast YouTube app with YouTube web version.
[Android Apps and Games] laura almeida:
There is a couple of things you can do

Download the latest installer v2.1

Use iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh to change the location of where to search for apk. Open the file, you will know what to do.

Place installer & iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh in /sdcard/

flash it

You can also unpack the zip, place the apk inside the root of the zip, repack it and flash.

Make sure the file name of the apk is exactly the same as you have downloaded.

If nothing works, you can just push the apk to /system/app/YouTube and give proper permission and reboot

I've downloaded latest version 3 times but all are corrupted.

I'm trying to download Youtube_12.34.55-1234553441_minAPI26(arm64-v8a)(480dpi)(black-v2.20)-vanced-backgroundplayback for my LG G5
[Android Apps and Games] TomiLynch:
Once again devs, thanks for an other wonderful and perfectly functional update!!

I used the iYTBP_use_this_settings.sh to install as a magisk module and detach from playstore and installed the universall installer through Magisk Manager with no problem at all (running v14.0).

One thing I noticed is the search path in the configurable file is set to "*ownload*" .

I don't know if this is supposed to be like this or not, but I changed it to "*Download*" and it worked perfectly. (I didn't try it with "*ownload*")

I did notice [MENTION=3279788]ZaneZam[/MENTION] 's update post on last page also talks about an "*ownload*" path, so I don't know if it's a typing mistake or if it's really ment to be like that. Anyway, just thought i'd let you know.

Thanks for your hard work!!

Edit: Nevermind, [MENTION=7130057]johnholley123[/MENTION] just explained to me what the * represent.

[Android Apps and Games] mustafa aqeel5253:
What to do see this
[Android Apps and Games] johnholley123:
The "*ownload*" search path allows it to locate folders with upper or lower case Ds and other characters such as s at the end, as the "*" character represents any character.
[Android Apps and Games] TomiLynch:
Oh great! Thanks for the clear explanation. I just learnt something new ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
can u show us the exact filename u have after download (and try both mirrors) please. somehow they often get renamed and shortened. ;)

u can use one of the latest or also older ones, check second post and download locations for a api21 x86. if there is none for the latest version then it's not available yet as apkmirror doesnt have it yet and u have to use a older one. (older versions only available on AFH)

this is unfortunate and i hope u did backup beforehand (which is always a must!!) anyway i faced that problem too before i updated (and fixed) the installer. u are sure that u use the latest one?

can u try to "uninstall" with the installer and see if u can boot again?

hmmm have to check, anyone else?

u got your explaination, and just to add its by intension like so as this is the "default" search setting. it actually would have worked even without your change, but well u never tired so :)

for what i know it removes watermaks from videos which have watermarks. but honestly i never came across such videos yet

check second post. u can't intstall a root version like that u have to use the non-root version if u want to install it like a normal app

Thanks for the reaction! I did backup before flashing (learned that the hard way... x3) i did uninstall it via the installer and I could boot again! I was 100% sure I had the new installer but guess that just dropped to 50% lol..
[Android Apps and Games] Lownita:
Installer working flawlessly, configuration file is a great idea!
[Android Apps and Games] Oblias:
Just got the new version, and have a question I cannot find the answer to in the OP. Can the new version be dirty flashed, or do I need to uninstall the 12.32.60 version first? I'm using the detach.plz also, if that makes any difference.
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
just install over installer takes care. ;) but be aware in some cases (mostly with root installation) your app settings get's reset (like autplay toggle etc.)

detach module just gets reinstalled and does just its jop as nomal after reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] Oblias:

[Android Apps and Games] foxsprout:
Great stuff, bro!! First time using the new installer since I just found out the new update is uploaded! :good::good:

Though I just tested that the setup file script (use_this_settings.sh) makes the installer not doing anything. I tested using 2 scenarios in which;

I modify the script and put all the files in the same folder,

I put the necessary files (to suit my needs) with modified script in the same folder

Both scenarios, using both TWRP and Magisk, result in nothing. The log said something about "good we can use Magisk" but done nothing, only mounting /data and magisk.img, if I'm not mistaken (I forgot to save it). Removing the script works as expected.

hi guys

i have galaxy s3 using lineage os 14.1 i have root access and twrp recovery but no magisk

when i want to use intaller.zip i put the iYTP.apk in the download folder without changing the name.

the result in attached file...!

any help please

EDIT FIXED

NOTE: for some reason it might be that after download the Apk's filename get's shortend for example to "Youtube_12.32.59-1232592300_minAPI16.apk"

(maybe only on mobile phones?) and the installer doesn't work afterwards as it doesn't "recognise" the apk anymore. Please don't blame the installer for that rather

I tried log cat from catlog on my phone and I attached the photo below (I can't find option to save as text file)

I think this happens when you try to install an update over a different version, for example, themed over non themed.

My guess is you had a different theme installed and are now trying to install an other one. Try deleting your current version and then installing this new one.

A Special Note For People Using Magisk Version!

This should be obvious, but I did it and maybe people that say "Magisk Version Doesn't Work" did it too. Don't turn on Magisk Hide for YouTube if you have a systemless YouTube! It will hide your modules too, so YouTube gets hidden from itself and you get an immediate FC.

I don't like Google peeking at my root, so I have a tendency to hide root from all Google apps. Don't do that with a Marian installed app ?
[Android Apps and Games] TomiLynch:
Hmm, has this always been like this or just in the most recent releases? Cause it happened to me before on two devices when updating from red-white to red-black and viceversa. When I uninstalled the current one, the new version would install with no problem.

As long as you are installing the same version or a newer version, you can always install.

But you can never downgrade, for downgrading you have to uninstall current version.

Playstore Updates Stop by iYTBP_detach_from_playstore.plz?

Is there a way to remove the the Youtube app from being updated by Play store app? Or even better from even showing up as available for update (even though there are updates)?

I don't want to accidentally update when I hit Update All every night.
[Android Apps and Games] Grander0:
You literally just quoted a post that has the answer to your question in it. Incredible.
[Android Apps and Games] megamorphg:
I did it for clarification because it is an awesome feature that most people would just overlook--also I thought the whole section only applied for magisk people.

So can you experientially confirm that even if i don't have magisk I flash iYTBP_detach_from_playstore.plz after installation and youtube app will no longer be on playstore updates?? Because that is awesome and should just be included in the mediafire download.

Edit: ok, it actually says it again below what i quoted, lol, was trying to be safe and didn't read entire post.

Edit 2: Nevermind... it doesn't work. Fresh install and then used the detach script and it errors out about magisk. So indeed something is magisky and the instructions were not accurate enough! Although redundant.
[Android Apps and Games] righN:
Soo, I wanted to try this thing. At first I tried installing .apk as a normal user (I'm trying to install rooted version) but it gave me an error and then I read that it can't be installed like that. Than I installed it like I should through recovery. At first app didin't show up (.apk was outside the .zip), so I tried putting .apk into .zip and flash it again and it didin't help. Then I read some troubleshooting written in this thread, I installed Youtube app from Play Store but when I went to settings it showed me Uninstall Updates not Delete. My phone is Xiaomi Mi5 on MIUI 8.
[Android Apps and Games] ZaneZam:
yes u need magisk for the

magisk module

, but the installer

should

also find supersu and even if that is not present it should fall back and use init.d script functionality of the used kernel (if that is available).

i underlined "should" as this actually is untested by me and that's the reason why installer is beta and people like u should be so nice to rebort. anyway u should get it working with magisk at least which is widely used

(why u shouldn't want to use it?) the instructions are accurate enough for most of the people but they are indeed outdated as i'm low on time and didn't get to it yet. speaking of not getting to it i had mediafire upload

troubles when i tried the first time and yes till now there were no non-root versions on that MIRROR (which is a duplicate of ANOTHER download location which is AFH which is the reason to have two). but now it is up. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] megamorphg:
I use things on Xposed and i read somewhere that you have to remove xposed and install on top of magisk and some apps don't work, etc. so I never did go with magisk. If this is not true and someone can provide something that would be appreciated.

Regarding the detach script, the root method is not working i guess. Anyway, I did force detach using Titanium Backup, I will report back if that works (will know after the next youtube update comes out). Thanks

You don't install the APK.

**You leave the APK in your internal card Downloads folder.**

Download the universal installer anywhere.

Then you go to your recovery > Install > select the universal installer and flash that. Observe the script's messages. Reboot

Re-read instructions and FAQ for selecting the right APK version to leave in downloads folder.
