Google reported an abuse to rovo89, who had to remove the module from the repo.

That is why the team after the YTBP module stopped to publish official apks, and the only official thing you may download from the project's github at the moment is the source code for manual building. Please note that the YTBP module apks floating around on xda or elsewhere (like the one attached in this topic) are not official ones, but it doesn't really matter as the official ones do not exist at all ;)

Careful! This module works fine until YouTube update on February 1st (in Europe). Had to uninstall and go back to previous version. I have unchecked auto updates for YouTube. Hope it can be fixed, it's great and an everyday tool for me ;)

Is it this module or my phone but since two days, every one video in background so with the phone screen off, the YouTube app crashs or exits and sometimes I get in the preview of the video with the screen on, "audio available" with a background black, that's all, I have to back and select again my video to read it and 5 minutes later, same problem :/
[Xposed Framework Modules] Knuxyl:
You should switch to Youtube Vanced non root. That is a way better solution than an xposed module. Plus they offer a black themed version. I stopped updating this because that was released and works perfect.

It is working fine with YouTube App.

But it is not working with YouTube Music.

Thank you very much

That is not an option this time. As it is a Google device they open themselves up for a lawsuit if they don't.

Also remember that the source only has to be provided upon request. Most post-it to github.com just to cut down on having to fill the request. Has anyone asked them about it?

[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] cichy.:
hi, i have two questions:

when i open recovery mode i have a message "installing system update" and after "no command"

is it normal?

in recovery mode (after an earlier "error") i have a message (at the bottom screen) "E:failed to open /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc: no such file or directory"

it is something important? what does it mean?

my phone is j5(2016), sm-j510fn with official android 7.1.1 XEO (update installed via odin same as stock samsung rom 6.0.1)

the phone works fine, but i want to know what these "error" messages mean in the recovery mode

i have one more question:

after installing nougat update via odin (one file rom) my phone didn't back to factory settings, that's good?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Ticsy:
I observed that too...

I observed that too, when i tryed to do a hard reset,but i got a different problem my phone officialy updated this night and since it updated it keeps giving me the error: "Unfortunetly com.android.phone has stopped" and it does not receve any service :crying:, i wiped the cache partiton, i did a factory reset, but it keeps giving me this error, did this happen to anyone else?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Haxomen:
That is normal for the stock android recovery.

I would reccomend to clean flash the new nougat if you are comming from a custom ROM. But if you just installed it over stock 6.0.1 than it is ok if its not wiped. It would be the same that you installed nougat OTA.

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------

If you did a factory reset and the problem persists, you should install nougat manualy over odin.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Ticsy:
Thanks for the answer i went to a service and they fixed the problem for me as i am still afraid of bricking my phone but i will try to learn how to root and change roms on a phone i got at home that i do not need... btw they said it had a problem with the IMEI number and that it had 50/50 chance of bricking but they managed to repair it... anyway thanks for the answer ^_^
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Ranasinghe:
"E:failed to open /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc: no such file or directory"

My phone also had this problem. :confused: after I download latest stock ROM "J510FNXXU2BRL1_J510FNODD2BRL2_SLK" (SLK is my region) from sammobile and flashed it using Odin.

But it was make new problem. now phone looping on Samsung logo. :( I looked at screen about 15min. not start android. I tried different different method to solve.

finally download TWRP from XDA ,after flash it and booted to twrp.

after did these steps.

1. Wipe > Advanced Wipe

2. select 'Data' (partition)

3. Now tap 'Repair or Change file system'

4. Now tap on 'Repair file system'. If it is done, it say done.

( In my case it not complete and say has some mounting errors. and I tap on 'Change file System' next select 'EXT4' and swiped to change.

now repeat step no 4. )

5. Now flash latest stock ROM using Odin and re boot.

done!

after about 5-8 min phone start correctly.

after I checked the error "E:failed to open /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc: no such file or directory" in recovery mod. oh! it has gone. :laugh:

I'm sure it will work to you also.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] AimiFox:
Hi there.

Very simply, as the title says, I cannot get LTE on anything other than xiaomi roms. I have tried global and the .eu rom, both work on LTE very well, I have good signal strength.

I have tried AEX, AICP, Lineage nightlies and Resurrection Remix. I have performed clean and dirty installs, attempted with and without formatting before rom installation, have flashed previous and various modem and firmwares, trying both before and after installation of the rom.

I have followed all instructions and experimented, nothing works.

My phone can see the network, but for whatever reason it is not connecting to it. (See linked picture)

Any ideas?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] AimiFox:
Update: It doesn't work on AICP but LTE barely connects on Epic rom, which is based on latest MIUI weekly development build. Others have stated elsewhere in MIUI forums that they get very bad reception on LTE after updating.

I heard someone state that the support for all of the LTE bands does not exist in all of the builds, only the China build has all of the bands. I am not sure how accurate this is.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] owziee:
How about Smarttoolkit? Imo it's a way better UI replacement (well at least it's a startmenu & top/bottom bar replacement!) for smartphones atm, I don't think PointUI is very useful for wm standard devices even though it does work.

Also there are now some really awesome skins available for smarttoolkit and considering all the extra features you'll get with it, it's one of the best enhancements for a wm standard device imo...

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] nnklem:
When I activate the assistant and tell it to play an artist, it trys to open in Pandora and tells me the app is not installed. Why is it defaulting to Pandora and not Google Play Music which I prefer? I understand I can tell it to play the artist in Google Play Music and it will, I'm just curious why it defaults to Pandora if I do not specify a player and if I can change that default. Any help is appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] arrrgh:
You can change the default music provider in the assistant settings.

E.g. pull up assistant, tap the "explore" icon (top right corner) then the three dots menu and go to settings. Scroll down to music.

Here is the mentioned fix by him/her : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74331289&postcount=51

Although i commend you trying to summarize the steps, they are wrong

adb reboot recovery is not a valid command ; i believe what you meant was

adb reboot bootloader

And i am not sure about this, but i think turning on developer mode is entirely optional.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Oops yeah updated to bootloader, hadn't seen the post before or anything on XDA. Been following the normal circles. Can't hurt to spread the news!

The whole reason for suggesting the "optional" part of developer mode is cause if you try just the regular reboot /key press combo and miss it you have to redo the OTA download which is rather annoying. Rather just remove that possibility.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ACastanza:
adb reboot recovery is definitely a valid command (assuming you're running a current version of ADB).

Enabling developer mode was not part of my original post, I don't think it is required, but then I was running it anyway. Entering recovery through a command rather than having to catch it at exactly the right moment with the key command is definitely easier, but I hadn't tested it that way when I did this originally. Glad this works too, it's much easier.

Also, glad people are finding this useful!
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] NoobInToto:
Ah, now I get it. I forgot you needed usb debugging for adb when booted in system.

Anyways, booting in bootloader mode was easy, it is very hard to miss. One has to press power+volume down immediately after first bootloop, when the screen is back, and i was able to get into bootloader mode within 1 second.

---------- Post added at 05:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 AM ----------

I had checked adb reboot recovery when booted in system. It did not work in 8.0.0.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ACastanza:
Woops, I only read the first part of your post. Nevermind.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Your right it doesn't work in 8.0. That's why I specified to do it when it says "reboot to update" because when the system "pre-loads" the OTA it switches the active boot slot for next reboot. That's why doing it this way works as well.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Huh? :confused: lol..

Anyways man didn't mean to steal your thunder. Just glad we're on 8.1.

You're the best! :good:
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ACastanza:
No worries! Just glad people are getting updated without needing to factory reset.

(ADB rebot recovery actually does work on 8.0 but you need to have adb debugging enabled and need a new-ish version of the ADB binary).
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] NoobInToto:
Oh, yeah, the latest one not only has reboot recovery, but direct reboot to sideload options too....sweet

Btw there is a second workaround. It involves adb sideloading the same build (8.0.0) and then sideloading the Dev preview.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] invisibro:
This worked for me. Looked like it was bootlooping again at first, but eventually booted into 8.1.0. Thanks!
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] NoobInToto:
Yup, strangely enough, that is the expected behavior for this workaround. [MENTION=3431375]pangolin.rollin[/MENTION] should include info about it in the OP post.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] bobby janow:
What am I missing here? I enrolled in the beta (Verizon locked bl) yesterday and within about an hour I had a notification to update to the beta. I clicked download and install and on the reboot I was running 8.1. What's all this about bootlooping, slots, rebooting bootloader? I did none of that and it worked flawlessly.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Updated op thanks

** Fixes "parse error -22" and update not installed, while this works first boot looks like it's looping. **
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Your lucky then! Not sure of the official cause of the errors and why some work and some don't. But seems some devices have issues verifying. That's why Google even pulled ota images.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] bobby janow:
So I presume that the only problems were with sideloading? I never do that on my Pixel since I just like it updating in the background, reboot and done. With a locked bootloader I can't take a chance of doing something wrong. If they send me an image or OTA that bootloops then it's not my problem and they have to either fix it or replace it. Nonetheless, it's working very well and the reboot wasn't long at all. Might be the better way to go.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] cred05:
I did this fix and although it did work, now when I wake the device back up it takes a long time to do so. Double tapping the screen doesn't work at all, and when I hit the power button it takes about 5 seconds before the screen turns on. I'm going to try to sideload the ota again and see if it fixes it.

EDIT: Nope, still having the same issue
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] pangolin.rollin:
Haven't heard of this problem yet.. were you on stock OPR3 with locked bootloader?
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] xdatastic:

You won't find a significant difference between CAF-labelled and Lineage-derived ROMs anymore unlike the significant performance disparities present in older phones such as the Nexus 5.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
They must've deleted the option to save directly on a device with one of the major Android updates. Tapping add new contact makes me pick an account. I've never noticed it. I can say an old KitKat Note 2 does still have it available.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
Do you have an option that allows you in settings to toggle off/on to add contacts to device or sync to Gmail? I filed a claim/complaint with Google about this and they say they wanted to send me a new device as I should be able to toggle off/on with contacts to not sync and add to device but I find this rather strange.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
I see no such option. What was the device you had prior to the Pixel 2 XL? It still had a save to device option?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
Galaxy S6 Edge and Samsung Note 4. iPhone 6s Plus also allows one to save to device instead of just iCloud. The Gmail and iCloud thing are fine but they should be an option and not a must to save a contact.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
I wonder if it's a Google phone thing. My Nexus 5X didn't have an option that I can recall. Can't check anymore cause it died on me 2 weeks before I got my Pixel 2 XL. I'll check my wife's Note 5 later today.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jeprokz:

you have an option to import or export contacts if you need.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
Yes, do not want all my contacts and everything else synced to a cloud server. When one pays $1000 for a smartphone why can't one place all their contacts and everything else on their device without being required to sync to a cloud server and sync all private info with Google's servers. All other smartphones allow one to save to device.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jeprokz:
I can completely understand your point of view now.

Thanks for clarifying.

As far as trying to keep it on the device.

I would check your google account and make sure that "Contacts" is not synced and see if that will resolve you not having to save your contacts on the phone.

Please let me know if that helps cause i would like to know if that actually works that way.

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
There has to be a bug here with this device or Google did this on purpose. Prior to logging on we have option to save to device but once you log on then you can no longer save to device. WTF..? Google sent me a new Pixel 2 XL and new device has same problem.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
I also think it is done on purpose. Just got a reply from Google Support. Followed their instructions but still does not work.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
Looks like they now realize that one can not save a contact to the device. $1000 for a smartphone that can not and does now allow its users to save new contacts to device. New you can but the minute you sign in to Gmail or Google Maps you lose that option of saving new contact to device.

Why does Google block purposely this option..?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Because they want you to be using their cloud services. Or at least some kind of cloud backup. Majority of people want the convenience of not having to manually sync, enter, export/import contacts, or have to post a "Lost my phone and contacts. DM your numbers please."
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] desiregeek:
For those that want that option they can choose to save contact to gmail instead of device. On all other devices one has the choice whether to save to device or Gmail. The same goes with Apple phone where contacts are saved to device and if you turn on iCloud backup then everything is backed up to the cloud. The option should be the end users and not theirs to make.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] charesa39:
After making the switch to my 1st Nexus device years ago (Galaxy Nexus), I noticed this same thing. I actually prefer the convenience of having them synced to my Google account. That way, if I don't have my phone on me for some reason, I can still look up a contact on a computer if necessary.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] imnuts:
I don't understand why it's such a huge deal having them synced to your Google account versus local only.
