Hi guys. I'm using YouTube Vanced module on PE+, mi 8 lite.

All worked always good until last magisk update. YTV app doesn't want to appear on my apps list. I can't see it on installed apps on settings also.

Some suggestion? Thanks
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Last update? That was in May... Did you disable YT? Or debloat it first?

Wrapped with delicious Fajita [emoji896]
[Magisk] peppe1996:
YT is not a bloatware on PE+... I'm referring to magisk v20 on 10/11
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Hm.. Systemless host enabled? If so, remove it.

[Magisk] peppe1996:
Yes I use it... And sincerely i need it. Why is it related to? Really strange. If you can find some other solution please tell me... Or i'll choose for unrooted way. Thanks
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Just sharing the experience of other users. If you're looking for an alternative to on the fly adblocking, I'd recommend Nebulo.

I'm using energized module. However, thanks for all :)

Hey YouTube vanced user if you unable to sign in on non root device due to pre-installed Google Chrome v74 or above version you need to clear all data(including update) and force stop the Google Chrome then restart your device. Your problem solve still get problem during sign in press the home button then go to Google Chrome app information and force stop and comeback on YouTube vanced you done .
[Magisk] g-member:
I don't get it, with vanced i still get just ad much ads as the standard youtube. When clearing cache it's gone for a short time but after some restarts of the app all ads are back.

Haha, no idea how I messed that up! I've updated it with the correct link ^_^
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
I'd recommend Adblock + systemless hosts. Is there no DNSCRYPT app or module for android? Because that would be a good alternative to DNS over https / tls
[Magisk] 73sydney:
Theres a dnscrypt-proxy module in the repo

Whack a decent blacklist in there and its better than any other adblocker on Android, apart from paid AdGuard....for one it wont choke on a huge blacklist like AdAway which has a limit....my blacklist is 35Mb...

I use dnscrypt-proxy on my desktop too and so share the config, blacklist and whitelist between them...
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
Which repo? I don't see it in magisk manager. DNS switcher says it will support dnscrypt next release
[Magisk] 73sydney:
Weird, but its gone all of a sudden, was there just the other week, because i downloaded it

Latest i have is v1.0.0

Was from this github repo, but this release is not even listed there anymore....

https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Grave/dnscrypt-proxy

Found in the Issues on that github this post:

https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Grave/dnscrypt-proxy/issues/62

I have no time for Telegram groups and that malarkey.....i have enough trouble tracking everything going in my life via email and forums/github, why do people insist on fragmenting stuff onto yet another bloody ecosystem/platform....into the bin with them....mental

Luckily newer verison is available here (seperate from Telegram, agaain why all the fricking fragmenting, when github is a standard place?)

https://git.nixnet.xyz/quindecim/dnscrypt-proxy-android

Its like follow the breadcrumbs form one site to the next,and no good reason for it....grrrrr...well at least i didnt have to download something to access Telegram, so thats a plus...i refuse to do that crap

The newer releases assume you want to use AFWall, whereas the older zips used keycheck to allow you to set iptables to redirect DNS to a custom port (custom port set in dnscrypt-proxy.toml listen_addresses line), so you didnt need to use a 3rd party DNS changer...i much prefer this method over the new 3rd party DNS changer app needed method....

Not the only one who found this change stupid, because it doesnt work terribly well via AFWall:

https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Grave/dnscrypt-proxy/issues/52

I used to update his original earlier module with the binaries (and newer config when needed, as new options were introduced) from the main releases (below), and with my own customisations, custom .mkshrc and aliases to allow restarting of dnscrypt-proxy easily after whitelist/blacklist editing etc:

https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy/releases

I havent updated in a while, havent had time, id love to tell you id try and get my version on the magisk repo, but i havent had a lot of fun/luck getting anything on there (as per my Google Pay Magisk Fix) too many personalities experienced during the "approval" process :)

note : worth pointing out the perosnalities i refer to are not didgeridoohan, that man helped me plenty with that Google Pay Magisk Fix module, that man is a saint :)
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
I share this frustration. It's annoying.

Thanks for tracking the breadcrumbs!
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
I'm sorry, I seem to be lost and have somehow ended up in the dnscrypt-proxy module thread. Can anyone tell me the way to the Vanced YouTube Magisk thread please? ;)
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
Yeah it's off topic, my bad. Just suggesting an alternative adblock to the one you suggested
[Magisk] lokesh ganesh:
I don't what happened but after every reboot the YouTube vanced app data gets reset
[Magisk] papakitou:
Why is that happening? I haven't even used it since boot
[Magisk] doubledragon5:
I have the latest of YouTube vanced but not via magic disk. Sprint Galaxy Note 4 marshmallow detux Version 9 ROM. I have the right APK but it refuses to install it keeps on saying not installed
[Magisk] doubledragon5:
Never mind even though the phone is rooted I use YouTube vanced non root working perfectly.
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
That's odd, it's just about the other way around for me, 3 hours active and just 1 minute of background activity. You'll have to tell us more about your device and Vanced install method.

[Magisk] Schroeder09:
On a Google p2xl with the latest YT vanced and migisk v20. I do not get the native Android nav bar button to lock the screen orientation after I turn it sideways to landscape mode. I'm using the Tulsa diver modified nav bar icons, but the orientation nav bar button appears in other apps with video players or screen rotation features, so I do not think the modded nav bar icons are the issues. Has anyone experienced this and/or know the solution?
[Magisk] Inacio_:
Any chance we'll see an option to remove the channel stories from the subscriptions page?
[Magisk] TraceFormer:
Is there a way to subscribe without signing in?
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Yes! You take a piece of paper and if you come across a video you like, write down the channel name on that paper. Then every morning you check your subscriptions by typing in the channel names from your paper. It's old school but works really well. It would look a bit like this (I unsubscribed from that last one):

[Magisk] Advanced07:
Is 14.21.54 still the latest version?
[Magisk] j-a-d-z:
Yes.
[Magisk] Advanced07:
That sucks
[Magisk] lcmazza:
Couldn't agree more. 4 months old version is scary. I hope that's not a trend.
[Magisk] WarriorMax:
Oh comeon guys.. Not again... I don't understand this OCD some have with version number. Many won't even know or care whats the changelog in the updated version. Its clear from previous posts that vanced would be updated only when google does some major changes. Current version is working fine to best of the developers ability and trust me update isn't required.
[Magisk] gorilla p:
So, I just upgraded to Q and was wondering if Google would add something to mess with YTV.

I have been using the latest version on P with no issues. It was working great on Q as well... Until now.

I was charging my device and it did a sneak update on me (not uncommon). Normally, just disable, enable and good to go.

Not this time. Now it's not going back to YTV.

Gonna play around a bit more and see what I have to do to fix it. Hopefully it's nothing too painful...

Update:

Ok, not too painful, just annoying if this becomes common.

Disabled app, disabled module in MM, rebooted, re-enabled module, rebooted and it's working again.

Disabled auto-updates in Play store, hoping to reduce this

Just wanted to note this in case anyone else comes across it.
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
There's a magisk module to detach apps from the play store. I recommend using it to detach YouTube
[Magisk] ZaneZam:
yeah had to do this too, but i just reinstalled the module after update to OOS10

or maybe enable the detach function i included into the module by creating the file "enable_detach" in /cache dir and reboot. it does its detach jop very well for me.

only little thing but from time to time (in weeks) it can be that a update notification pops up in playstore, but just wait 30 seconds then its gone again (you can adjust the scan interval by putting the amount of seconds into the enable_detach file) just another detach option ;)
[Magisk] GHOST1010:
New terms and conditions of YouTube, means no more ad blocking?
[Magisk] gatlinnewhouse:
That's amazing

What do the new terms and conditions for YouTube mean for Vanced?
[Magisk] gorilla p:
Enable_Detach is already in there. It doesn't appear to be helping a whole lot at this point. YT doesn't show up on the list of pending updates. If I search for it, it will show that there's a pending update, so it appears to maybe be helping a little. However it appears that some things have changed with Q to reduce ability to quickly restore YTV

I never bothered with he detach module because the detach.txt method worked perfectly fine on P. Going to try the detach module and see how it works out. Appears to be working for the time being. Will see if an effected by Google's covert subversive changes to my phone again.
[Magisk] ZaneZam:
well yeah as long as the mission is accomplished ;) i was just pointing to the included detach option which don't need an extra module and works good on OOS10 (so i carefully guess on Q in general?) with recent playstore and subversive stuff behind it *g*. but just for the record it should be "enable_detach" as the script likes to have it case sensitve. just me nitpicking :)
[Magisk] darshan2511:
Can't we get all features - ad blocking ? I love using PiP and background play.
[Magisk] ecsnead69:
Can someone tell me where the preinstalled YouTube is located in Android 10? I deleted it from Data/App but it's still on the phone. Thanks
[Magisk] DiamondJohn:
If it's "pre-installed" I would check somewhere off your system. eg /system/app or /system/priv-app /data/app is normally used for 3rd party apps ie stuff from the playstore, not pre-installed on the device.
[Magisk] ipdev:
Preinstalled should be in product/app

/product/app/

/system/product/app/

/system/system/product/app

Cheers.
[Magisk] ecsnead69:
Thanks. What do you guys use to delete them? I'm using FX file explorer and it won't let me change the files from read only, I do have root access for FX

I try to mount the root as write, but as soon as I do, I get a message that root is read only?
[Magisk] ipdev:
Depending on your device/setup, you might not be able to remount to read-write when system is booted.

If you have a custom recovery, that can decrypt (or you are non-encrypted), you could remove it when booted into recovery.

FX is a great file manager and well supported.

You could ask about remounting system for your device in the fx thread Link

or

An appropriate root thread for your device.

Personally I follow a slightly less traveled path.

OT for the magisk module thread.

Cheers. :cowboy:
[Magisk] siekierek:
Good morning everyone.

Firstly, I love the app. Does what I want. Perfect. The only thing I'm trying to get it to do is to be able to open videos directly in Vanced when I have notifications from normal youtube player. I don't know how to do that. Anyone could help, please. Thank so much in advance.
[Magisk] xt7xda:
From yesterday whenever the app is opened, it is stopped. I tried reinstalling the app, but it is not opening.
[Magisk] Extralars:
Partially true. You can hide only the player without catastrophical consequences.
[Magisk] Advanced07:
There are so many bugs what are u talking about mate
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
I recommend to read this. And I guess it depends on the installation method and/or device and/or how lucky you are because it's all still smooth sailing on my end! I watched several videos for about 2 hours yesterday without seeing any ad and without any glitches.
[Magisk] hs73h4:
I really like this module, thanks :)
[Magisk] smohanv:
What is the advantage of hiding YouTube player in magisk hide.
[Magisk] 6nchris:
I am very Happy with Vanced as Well, but a few days ago i startet seeing ads while playing a Video. How so you manage to get no ads?
[Magisk] doubledragon5:
Ever since I started using this app, rooted version or unrooted version, I never have an ad show up.
[Magisk] d3vyarth:
When I choose voice input from Search box, it says allow access to mic in the settings, but in the settings it only asks permission for camera, contacts and storage , NO Mic.
[Magisk] d3vyarth:
Look

Also, why can't I share videos on YouTube Groups? Can't see my groups in sharing option, just other apps like signal WhatsApp etc
[Magisk] Extralars:
I don't know, I just tested it.
[Magisk] xt7xda:
has anyone faced this issue?
[Magisk] hyper21:
Did someone know how to hide those X symbol Everytime you play a video? It's quite annoying that we need to press it each time pause/play
[Magisk] domicq:

Thx:good::good:
[Magisk] matthew33:
I had same problem...so I installed non-root version and mic works and still blocks all ads.

[Magisk] daddylonglegs:
This is odd since I've never had this problem before. I just updated my rooted version of Vanced and voice search no longer works. It worked on the older version I was on. If I click on the microphone, it says I need to enable voice permissions. When I click OK to go to the permissions, there is nothing pertaining to the microphone. Does anybody know why this is happening? Thanks in advance! ?

edit: I'd rather not have to use the non-root version since I can easily update it in magisk
[Magisk] kevintm78:
Mic permission

I posted a possible solution awhile back. I didn't hear much feedback on it so I don't know if it's overly complicated or just not working for some, but it works on my phone.
[Magisk] daddylonglegs:
This worked! Thank you so much!

Just out of curiosity, why do I get ads in the rooted version of Vanced? They aren't video ads, but it's ads for stuff for me to click on like fixing my credit score and stuff.
[Magisk] kevintm78:
I've seen a few too and I also had some show up in my stock Samsung browser lately which is kind of rare. I use adaway and just had to update hosts to get rid of them, but whatever adblocking method that vanced uses is probably just a bit outdated. Youtube seems to have pushed quite a few server side updates recently and we all know how much they love their ads so I'm sure that's part of one the updates.
[Magisk] snapdrag0n01:
Me too, recently I've been subscribing to tech channels and ads of mobile phones flood the home section. Tried to enable/disable ads in vanced settings and now it's an on/off ad sightings at home.
[Magisk] d3vyarth:
Great, it worked for me. Also, why can't I share videos to my friend directly on YouTube? I used to do it, is it Discounted or what?
[Magisk] lvfmc85:
Hi lord_emperor. I don't know if you already solved the icon and name problem.

Yesterday I had a similar problem, accidentally installed the last YouTube update and I lost my Vanced version. When I tried to uninstall the updates, it removed my whole app and when I installed the vanced from magisk I got a generic icon and the app name was com.goole.android.youtubeXXXXX.

I solved this problem by uninstalling everything (vanced from magisk and the app from my phone), download and installed an old version of YouTube (I used the version 12.47.58 from androidapksfree.com) and then I installed the YouTube Vanced from Magisk. This corrected my icon and the name of the app.

I hope this can help you or anyone with the same problem.
[Magisk] chainrulez:
Hi, after every reboot my Youtube vanced setting getting reset. I am using latest youtube vance from magisk version. I am on Android 9 stock OS.
[Magisk] Revontheus:
The worst has come, has anyone tried to download a video? It would ask you to get Youtube Premium
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
You have an unusually large signature

Have you tried removing the module - reboot - install module again - reboot?

Again, this feature is NOT related to Vanced. You are NOT supposed to be able to download any videos with this app. In some regions this feature appears to be working for free but this is only because Google allows it (because they don't sell it there or whatever). In most regions this is a locked YouTube Premium feature and Vanced is NOT YouTube Premium. If this has recently changed for you, it is because Google changed it server-side (they now offer it in your region?). If you want to download videos, install a 3rd party app to do so and use the internal share feature in VYT for a smooth workflow. A bit like I convert music on YT to MP3 with YMusic.

I'd also like to add that YT video downloaders often bring malware to your device. Virustotal.com is your friend ;)
[Magisk] Revontheus:
Thank you for the quick response. I guess its now time to use TubeMate again.
[Magisk] mrjuniork:
Or videoder ;)
[Magisk] chainrulez:
haha yes true, I will trim my signature :D

Yes I did every step you mentioned but again after reboot it gets reset. What I figured out is I uninstalled stock youtube via root uninstaller from rom long time ago so can it be an issue with that?
[Magisk] snapdrag0n01:
Weird. Just now the cast button on top of the videos just disappeared. Tried on my test unit with vanced to as well.

edit, google home issues. fixed.
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Shouldn't be a problem but you could try the root version instead.. Or install regular YouTube via Play Store and install Magisk version over it. It's quite modular so any combination should be fine.

Hlw, i newly installed YouTube vanced and now its saying no Network, connection failed. but i have working wifi and mobile data. what to do now?

---------- Post added at 05:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 AM ----------

Non root mi note 8 with vanced version - 14.21.54
[Magisk] ipdev:
Wait . . What? :confused:

If you install YouTube from PlayStore it will install into userdata. (data/app/YouTube)

Vanced (unless it changed) used system/app/YouTube

The newest version will be from PlayStore and data/app/YouTube will override system/app/YouTube.

Regardless of how many versions are installed, the newest version will always be default and run.

If com.google.android.byte_my_asinus_latin_4-V40 is installed in [system/app or system/priv-app or product/app or product/priv-app] and com.google.android.byte_my_asinus_latin_4-V41 is installed in [data/app]. Version 41 will be default and run.

You may have problems (permission issues normally, off the top of my head) if a newer version is in system or product than data, since data/app should be most up-to-date.

I use system/priv-app/iYTv7a or system/priv-app/iYTv8a for Vanced YouTube.

I leave preinstalled system/app/YouTube alone. (Yes even on the newest Pixel Factory-Images product/app/YouTube is still an older version.)

I wouldn't get into Google's update policies and/or how we all agreed to their terms when we signed up our Google accounts.

If I accidentally let YouTube update, I have three versions installed. The updated version runs until I uninstall the update, then Vanced is back.

[YouTube in system/app or product/app | Vanced in system/priv-app | updated YouTube in data/app]

If the Vanced patches could be applied to split APK files, then ??? :confused:

Now I'm curious.. Might have to try something tomorrow..

[Install YouTube from PlayStore, make split-apk.zip and uninstall. Reinstall from split-apk.zip and see if I get an update notification from PlayStore.]

Cheers. :cowboy:
[Magisk] ronnbon:
Hi, I am a avid user of this magisk module for a long time.

I recently updated my LgV30 to android pie. So I had to install everything anew. I had no problems with the process and/ or installing magisk and the module. But it does not work anymore- I mean it installed without problems and the vanced Youtube app opens and looks as always but it within there is no adblock and no backround playing possible. Its completely like the normal youtube app just in black (black version installed).

I deinstalled it and tried it again with no luck. Is this module not working with android pie?

Update: Missed an automatic YouTube Play store update. After deleting the official app again and reinstalling the magisk module everything is fine now.
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
You make a solid point. Yet either way has always worked in my case. Though I have to admit that last time flashing over Play Store installed YT was back in the iYTBP days for me :D

Have you tried the root version instead?
[Magisk] Gouravgamer:
I'm using YouTube Vanced v14.21.54(b01.40.20) installed through magisk Manager.

I have been facing a issue when a watch downloaded videos, there is no option for increasing playback speed in some downloaded videos.

But when i watch it online without downloading it has playback option.

This happens only in few videos like this : [youtube]HuO4SgBh9rw[/youtube]

I was wondering why this happens? How to fix this?

Is PiP working on version 8 or + or just 8?
[Magisk] AndyDesire:
Youtube Vanced seems to install within Magisk, but it does not exist after install.

It is a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8 SM-Y355T (gt5lte).

It was previously rooted and SuperSU was being used.

I have changed this to magisk which installed correctly from TWRP (currently 3.1.1).

Magisk version: 20.1

Magisk Manager version 7.4.0

Stock Youtube has been removed from the device.

Play store is set to manual updates only.

I have tried both the black and dark/white installs from Magisk with the same result.

Other modules such as debloat install correctly and operate correctly from Magisk.

Can someone please help troubleshoot what is happening here?
[Magisk] gorilla p:
Remove or disable YouTube. Reboot to recovery, flash zip in TWRP. I have always had much better luck flashing in TWRP vs installing via Magisk.

Don't be surprised it standard YT shows up though as Google has increasingly introduced subversive code that will force update it if detected with no notice even if autoupdate for YT is disabled, primarily when on WiFi and charging.
[Magisk] AndyDesire:
Ok thank you. I have tried withing TWRP and it goes through the motions and acts as if it works but then when I go into system, it just is not there.

Previously I had already removed YT as much as possible. Removed cache and data. Then disabled and then removed with root uninstaller.

Notable is that after this the Google version of YT is not there either. So it does not seem to be that GYT is replacing it. Rather that the installations are not properly working.

Very frustrating for something that should be simple and I am receiving not error notices. :(

I do not know if this is helpful or not, but within /system/app/YouTube, I see YouTube.apk, which is the Vance edition.

I am unable to install it by clicking on it. It goes through the motions and then says "App not installed".
[Magisk] gorilla p:
I went through similar issues for a short period.

Make sure the ytv magisk module is uninstalled, reboot.

If stock yt is showing, clear storage (wipe cache/data) and disable.

Reboot and install ytv again via magisk.

When you boot to system, ytv may show up, or it might show ytv is disabled, go ahead and enable it if so and see if it works.
