Help

Hello everone. My vanced stops the music when screen of just a song or two. Have samsung s7 phone. Anyone please help my out? Kind regard
[Magisk] shaDNfro:
Any chance to split the vanced app from market to avoid updates?
[Magisk] ilal2ielli:
If you installed the Magisk module, it already does that.
[Magisk] shaDNfro:
Unfortunately not working for my moto g5 (and as far as I remember, it did not work for my Samsung $5 neither)
[Magisk] madbat99:
Did you look in settings/Vanced settings/layout?
[Magisk] lepathi:
Help!

I can't use pinch to zoom while watching (real 21:9) videos. What am I doing wrong?
[Magisk] saikoz:
Hi all,

I tried install youtube vanced through magisk manager module, but my youtube not showing up in launcher... When i check using in system/app the youtube got installed, im not sure why the youtube not showing up
[Magisk] yeye.phone:
Hello,

try with this metod :

universal installer and ytva_install_via_magisk.plz in your download folder and flash trough twrp.

For me Background Playback does't work. Youtube crash when i try to go on home launcher.
[Magisk] kakabobo:
how to access the apps setting to change theme color?
[Magisk] abacate123:
Open YouTube > Settings > Vanced Settings > Layout Settings (you have only black there to toggle, and white is the standard).
[Magisk] TiggaPwease:
Not sure what I am doing wrong. I have the latest installer and have the apk in my sdcard/download folder. When I flash the installer through twrp it doesn't seem to find the youtube apk and does not install the youtube vanced. Can anyone help me out?

Edit: figured out the issue.
[Magisk] Mahmoudinos:
I just installed the non-root version in my phone now, and I was speechless ? I tried too many apps for playing YouTube in background, in this is the best one, just one question does it support a pop-up playing in the non-root version or not?!
[Magisk] :
This is the wrong thread actually, but I guess picture in picture mode is working on Android 8.0 and up (at least it's the case with the magisk module, which is also this thread about btw)
[Magisk] Avalon:
The module works flawlessly! The only thing is that I can't scroll further than 20 saved videos in my playlist. My music play list has over 270 videos but the moment I scroll down it just stops scrolling. Not sure how to logcat this though..
[Magisk] OPOt585:
I noticed this too!
[Magisk] madbat99:
It's a YouTube issue. People have it on stock YT as well. This is discussed in the main Vanced thread.
[Magisk] TENN3R:
Hi guys, like OP says, "If you have youtube already pre installed to system remove it completely or at the least uninstall updates."

I used terminal debloater for magisk and I removed some apps (including youtube bacause I wanted to use vanced) selecting also "remove app from /data".

Now I installed this module but the app doesn't show at all in drawer or in settings - all apps.

Does somebody know how to fix this problem? Otherwise I'll reflash the factory to preserve youtube and just uninstall previous updates, just to know.

Thanks in advance.
[Magisk] madbat99:
Don't remove it with magisk terminal debloater, geez. It will never show that way. Just remove the updates for YT.
[Magisk] Martinson1252:
Is vanced youtube red? Because sometimes I see notifications like: " Youtube Red is working in the background".
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Shh, we don't use the R-word in here. Let's just stick with background playing ad free YouTube ;)
[Magisk] Martinson1252:
Ok Sooo.. I understand that vanced is a pirate version of Youtube ***?
[Magisk] martinklaus:
Mhh maybe, there was a time that the mod add background playback and black background. Now it's only enabling YouTube red features, I can understand what you think. But the modders had this Idee before Google.
[Magisk] Razerman:
Background playback is the only feature that is enabled the same as YT red has (the same as the Xposed module but I added the menu as well). YouTube red has offline saving, paid videos and whatnot so this is hardly a "pirated" YouTube red.

Now you may say that yt red doesn't have ads but this mod blocks the ads way differently than what yt red does.
[Magisk] cpthero:
Spotify dogfood was also banned from xda, it blocked the ads and allowed unlimited skips. Tbh I'm wondering why this is still on xda but I'm not complaining :D
[Magisk] Martinson1252:
Maybye thus that Vanced doesn't give us access to paid videos.
[Magisk] smohanv:
Yes. But go back to home tab and come back to playlist then you can see all the videos.

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

Can you stop saying this.. Shhhh...
[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
That's different, Spotify has always had a commercial model that required subscription and relies heavily on it to survive. YouTube's subscription service is not only relatively new (YT modding was already running years beforehand), it's also not available worldwide. Plus, the amount of users that successfully manages to view videos ad free is negligible compared to the total 30 million visitors per day. The number of advertisers is increasing by 40% y/y and the top 100 of advertisers spend over 60% more y/y (stats) so they are not losing any significant income over this.

Don't forget that Google has a great deal to thank this community for. Without XDA, Oreo would look quite differently today and Android might not have grown as exponentially as it has (or it might even have been discontinued in earlier days, who can tell).

So ultimately, Google has nothing to gain to shut projects like these down. Quite the opposite, in fact! Feature wise they can still learn a great deal and projects like these are free resources to them. Win-win!

I hope this was a more satisfying answer to you.
[Magisk] heichi13:
Can say that I miss the original splash screen.
[Magisk] fixxxer0:
Are there any issues with this on the April security update?

My p2xl was working fine with vanced on March update, now it's not in app drawer when module is enabled.

Had to delete the module, and redownload/install. Good to go now
[Magisk] madbat99:
That's an issue with magisk.
[Magisk] fixxxer0:
yea probably... im on 16.3
[Magisk] masri1987:
same thing happening here, app shows up when it wants to and disappears too, when it wants to.

I'm on 16.3 magisk as well.
[Magisk] stryver:
That's funny, mine shows up but somehow is now named "false". Still works just fine though. Weird.
[Magisk] laura almeida:
Rebuild cache.

Sometimes Android fail to notice changes done to system via magisk.

So right now Android system is reading the app name from the cache which was generated before you updated YouTube.

The old cache and new cache doesn't have the same memory map.

Thus memory address of the app name => random string
[Magisk] mangusZen:
For me was an offending module, the cloudfare dns one. After removing it all is good and normal.
[Magisk] apizzVongola:
Great work! But i cant sign in to my account ?
[Magisk] abacate123:
If you're using the non-root version, you'll need the microg apk, you find it on the website as well.
[Magisk] Jonas Cardoso:
Does anyone have this recurring problem?
[Magisk] Vaizen:
Happened to me with 13. 10.55 release. But it's solved in 13.12.60 well at least for me.
[Magisk] Jonas Cardoso:
I'm using this 13.12.60 from magisk repo
[Magisk] Vaizen:
Try removing the module reboot, reboot to recovery and flash it. I updated I that way and it's working fine
[Magisk] Jonas Cardoso:
I did this, there was an improvement, the ads on the "recommended" tab are gone, let's see if the bug also disappears
[Magisk] TheAnon:
Hello!

I just updated to the latest Magisk version but now audio doesn't goes through the Bluetooth devices. Local media players work without issue.

Already reinstalled the module and cleared the cache, but the problem persists. Anyone else with that bug?
[Magisk] Jonas Cardoso:
I've already removed the module and reinstalled, but the bug persisted and the ad continues
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
And you've uninstalled updates for the stock YouTube app (and disabled automatic updates for it)?
[Magisk] Jonas Cardoso:
Yes
[Magisk] super-drone:
I don't think detach is working on latest version, I clean installed 13.12.60 and yet play store is showing an update for youtube

[Magisk] mbc07:
So this means we now have to create the detach file every time the module gets updated? AFAICT the module folder inside magisk.img is wiped before a new version get extracted to it, which means the detach file would be gone too...
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
That's correct.
[Magisk] mbc07:
Ok but why? The previous method was working flawlessly. If the issue was extracting a file inside /data (that's what I understood from "comply with MagiskHide policies" on GitHub changelog), couldn't it be placed inside /cache or another persistent location instead (e.g. /data/data/com.google.android.youtube or somewhere inside /data/media)?

I appreciate all the work you and the others had done to create and maintain Youtube Vanced, but that's a bummer, the Magisk Module is the closest we have of a somewhat automatic update mode (disregarding the delays compared to the modded APK releases due needing to wait for all variants to pop online and the need of manually checking Magisk Manager from time to time as it currently have push notifications for the updates of Magisk/Magisk Manager only) and now we also have to remember to redo another manual step whenever the module gets updated just to to get back a feature that previous versions of the module had automatically working perfectly...
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
I am in no way a part of maintaining YouTube Vanced. But, the previous method was far from flawless... There are a whole bunch of reports of it actually breaking the Play Store in quite a significant way. I've experienced it myself and it was actually my reporting of that issue that brought along this change.

I agree with you about the placement of the detach file though. [MENTION=3279788]ZaneZam[/MENTION] It might be a good idea to move the detach file to /cache (or another appropriate location) instead. Magisk itself uses /cache for a couple of features... That way it'll be somewhat automatic for those that want the detach feature.
[Magisk] ZaneZam:
aye aye will move that in next update. current location was part of the merge request i did not change it but yeah agree if /cache is possible (which u know better than i ;) ) it's of course better.
[Magisk] MartyM76:
Thank you for this great app!
[Magisk] ErbDroid:
Hey guys, how to download from this? Do I use a 3rd party app or is it built in??
[Magisk] :
It's not build in so you would need another app.
[Magisk] gorman42:
Installed from Magisk repository with no problem. I just wanted to express my gratitude to developers. :)
[Magisk] djide:
Keeps getting updated by Google playstore.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Activate the detach feature of the module (check the readme), but beware that it has been known to cause issues with the Play Store (auto updates for all apps may be disabled).

Or, go to the YouTube page in the Play Store, click the three-dot menu in the upper right corner and untick "Enable auto-update". Done.
[Magisk] gorman42:
I never use autoupdates, so for me it's a non-problem.
[Magisk] fushinari:
Is downloading as an mp4 supported?
[Magisk] madbat99:
No
[Magisk] Messatsu:
Hi everyone,

Am I the only one getting ads when I stream YouTube videos on my TV with YouTube Vanced?

Édit : seems that my LG client is still YouTube...nevermind :(
[Magisk] XomosXz:
How to force using software decoder vp9? Using settings available in the app I only get webm and mp4 audio, but on the website (while accessing from cellphone) I get vp9 and Opus audio. I know it's possible to set different devices than galaxy s6, but which one?
[Magisk] jksdzh:
The starting page has one stripe above the navigation bar and navigation button disappeared on this page, except that everything is good.Thks for your hard work.
[Magisk] ExpertMC:
I have the issue where the play store won't auto update. Is there a fix? I couldn't find it in the thread.
[Magisk] cpthero:
Did you use the detach file?
[Magisk] madbat99:
Detach is doing that to some ppl. Only thing to do is not detach. It was removed from installer v3.0 I believe, because of that reason. Before you say " but I need detach" , those are your options.
[Magisk] Joecalone:
I am running the latest version of the app with the latest microg. Sign in works fine, however when I try to access the subscriptions tab or scroll down to the comments section on any video, the app instantly crashes.

I am on an Xperia E4G

Edit: I have remedied this issue by running the oldest version available on the Google drive of both YouTube Vanced and MicroG
[Magisk] Zgadnijcie:
Newest version crashes after start. In phone settings, I see, Youtube has 0B. I use Redmi Note 4x RR Oreo.
[Magisk] yung40oz84:
Usually overlays cause this. Logs, logs, logs. Nobody can fix anything without logs bro. It doesn't crash for me.
[Magisk] Zgadnijcie:
It works now. I installed older version of GP, and it helped. But thanks.
[Magisk] ExpertMC:
I have auto update disabled for YouTube in the store, so I don't want the detach. I even removed the module completely and reinstalled it with the disable_detach file and it still breaks updates.
[Magisk] cheapwine:
What's GP? I have similar problem with Redmi 4x. Non root version works fine but magisk module keeps getting crashed right after splash. Where i can find logs to look?
[Magisk] Zgadnijcie:
Do you have stock or custom Rom? If Stock, I can't help you, because I never use it on stock. On Custom I had 9.7.11 version of GP and logs shows my device is not certified and YT had 0B in settings. I install 9.6.11 GP and it works. I really don't understand it [emoji848] For logs you can install logcat reader from playstore and run YT.

It's 21.67MB. Maybe i should mention that Pixel experience had no YouTube app to begonia with. I starded with instaling YouTube from GP, then uninstalled it for Vanced but it didnt work so i tried with non root version that worked fine but i still would like to have it on magisk.
[Magisk] Zgadnijcie:
Non-root has other signature, that's why it works. I have last idea, which I get from friend. He had the same problem and it helped him:

1. Uninstall Youtube.

2. Go to twrp.

3. Wipe only system. Next flash system, newest gapps and magisk.

4. Install vanced via magisk.

[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Detach was on by default until the latest update. For me, the only way to get automatic updates working again, was to uninstall updates for the Play Store.
[Magisk] ivivaitylin:
Well, here's a weird one for you. I recently got a new bluetooth headset. Playing music through the play store is fine, and I tried watching a twitch stream and a video using VLC with no issues. However, using Vanced 13.12.60 my headset keeps disconnecting.

On the one hand, I wouldn't think that an app would keep disconnecting my bluetooth headset, because why would it? But equally, it only happens in Vanced, so that must mean it's a problem with the app, right? Happy to troubleshoot however needed. Pixel 2 XL, android 8.1 w/march 18 security update. Magisk 16.3

Edit: Disregard this, happening to everything. Welp :(
[Magisk] Cogor:
I know this could sound ridiculous but can I update the app normally in Play store or that will return the app to the normal functions?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Don't let the Play Store update YouTube. It'll, as you say, return the app to normal functions.

Either use the detach function of the module, but beware that it may cause issues with auto updates for all apps for some users. Or, just disable auto updates for YouTube.
[Magisk] Cogor:
Thanks you ?
[Magisk] gykes:
Will this work on Miuipro 8.4.19

No of course not, we specifically blacklisted miuipro 8.4.19 because we hate it, but any version above or below will work
[Magisk] gykes:
I was on Miuipro 7.12.7 prior to updating 8.4.19 and I tried flashing YouTube Vanced which still didn't work.. So what's your explanation for that? Let me guess, you hate it as well? LoL :rolleyes:
[Magisk] shaqman89:
Lol. Chill and see he is being sarcastic.

In any case, you didn't pose the question well. Also if it were intended as a bug report, then you are lacking so many details, the least of it is a description of in what way it didn't work.

That post has the links. Then root downloads, then installer files. All the .plz files (detach, attach, magisk, etc.) Also the settings.sh which contains all of them.

You didn't look very hard.

[Magisk] ulipo:
I have come to the conclusion that for most users, what's stated in the readme is not completely clear... I think people is looking for downloads of files called "enable_detach" and "disable_detach", probably it should be made clearer that they are just empty files that you can create by yourself in the specified folder, what matters is just the file name.
[Magisk] daniel.1983:
Thanks for the clarification!
[Magisk] astracd:
I used Titanium Backup to detached. As I could not find the folder /sbin/.core/img/iYTBP-Vanced-Magisk-Repo

I did download file ytva_detach_from_playestore.plz and save to /sbin as there is no other folders in there... That file disappeared from /sbin after restart

You probably don't have "show hidden files and folders" enabled or it will not show /.core

[Magisk] madbat99:
You don't put the .plz files in /sbin.

Anyone looking for the detach script can find it on the front page of the site linked above. To use it download installer zip and detach only plz make sure they are both in /sdcard/download and flash it in either magisk or TWRP

Quote from post 3.
[Magisk] astracd:
Ok, got it done. Works great.

Open http://iytbp.onlineyoutube.com/

Open root folder scroll down to Installer files press download

Download ytva-universal-installer-v3.0.zip and ytva_only_detach_from_playstore.plz

Open magisk / modules + to add new module

Go to downloads and install ytva-universal-installer-v3.0.zip

Reboot...

Wait for min and go into play-store there should not be new updates required for YT.
[Magisk] sreefu90:
Hi there, I'm kinda facing an issue where YT Vanced installation is just not reflecting on my nougat rom. I have ensured that Magisk and Magisk manager is updated to latest. I have also removed the default YT app and retried the Magisk YT Vanced installation. It's just not working anymore. It used to work flawlessly on the same rom. I've also tried to install it by flashing the zip installer from the official website but to no success. Please help if anyone have faced this and managed to fix it.
[Magisk] garylawwd:
How did you remover the default app? Was it a system app and you used titanium backup to remove because if yes a lot of people faced problems before when removing with tb
[Magisk] sreefu90:
At first initial attempt, I just checked the default youtube app info from settings to try to remove any installed updates but there were none. Then installed YT Vanced via Magisk, log showed all good, but upon reboot the default youtube app was still there. I then uninstalled and removed YT Vanced and tried again with the Black version but still same result. So i uninstalled again, used Magisk Debloat and removed the default youtube app. To my suprise the default YT app was still in the drawer after reboot. So i tried to manual flash the YT Vanced installer zip downloaded from the web and after reboot the default YT app was missing now from the app drawer. After that I tried installing YT Vanced via Magisk again but nothing happened. It shows that its enabled from Magisk app manager but now there is no YT or YT vanced icon at all in app drawer.
