Read the op. You can't just install the rooted apk.
[Android Apps and Games] rambomhtri:
I miss some stuff from OGYouTube that you guys could implement if you find them useful:

1. Seek/advance/rewind slide: most media player has this feature. It's basically moving in the timeline bar using horizontal slide gestures.

2. Notification dark themed: You can apply a dark theme to the whole YouTube Vanced app, but the notification is still white. It would be great to be able to make it dark as well.

3. More full screen video info: I'd like to see in the full screen video UI, below the video's title, more info, such as views, channel's name...

You either die a hero, or live long enough to have your icon redesigned into monstrosity.

Is there any good YT modification that just enables premium features and doesn't completely ruin the design?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
In other words "hey developer, here's a nice hard slap for your efforts. Now tell me where to find something else because I'm ultra picky and ungrateful".

You know you can change the icon in your launcher right?

---------- Post added at 11:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

You realize this isn't ogyt right? Its not meant to be. You can try feature requests in the appropriate place.

Ya know, instead of trying to get a jab in at other people's hard work.
[Android Apps and Games] mukintaras:
In other words "I don't accept any negative feedback as long as it's something I don't care about".

You know you can't change icon in recents switcher, in settings, in share menu or in a splash I see everytime I open app by changing launcher icon, right?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Wow, are you ok? Did you get any on you?
[Android Apps and Games] TomiLynch:
I think you're gonna be better off leaving this thread and sticking with stock youtube. It's got no ugly icons or ruined design.

This is no place for disrespect.

Stick to the rules or leave.
[Android Apps and Games] Vordx:
You don't like it ? Umm let me use my rocket science calculator to see how this gets solved.

Compiling...

Calculating...

Print "DON'T USE IT".

Ending...

Easy as that. If you don't like the icon or whatever , you have 3 choices and nothing else.

1- learn how to modify it and change whatever you don't like.

2-Suggest it very very nicely with respect to other people work and time.

3-dont use the mod.
[Android Apps and Games] rambomhtri:
Wow, easy, I was just giving out ideas on how to improve this app mod. Why so much heat for just suggesting to implement stuff that can improve this app?

I used OGYouTube for a long time and it had some features that I liked and I just posted them here to see if the devs liked them.

I don't know how suggestions are treated as negative feedback :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] Vordx:
Wrong person man.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
This is what's driving you so crazy that you felt the need to be disrespectful? Dude. C'mon.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Right, feedback. Lol. Not intentionally insulting. Dude, be nice.
[Android Apps and Games] Dante Enoshima:
Wow... Somebody doesn't like the icon huh?... If you really don't want that icon, just use the original YT + a couple of xposed modules and done! You got your beloved icon with almost the same feature as this Vanced YT
[Android Apps and Games] lcrponte:
I'm not intending to fire up the flame but do not, I repeat, do not mess around the icon! I love it!
[Android Apps and Games] rambomhtri:
If somebody really is complaining just about the icon... wow, he surely is bored to death. I mean, I don't think it's a great design, but I don't really care, what matters is how cool it is to have YouTube themed dark and with all these features. If you care that much about icons, which I can understand if you are really picky about the looks, I'm sure you know many ways to change it: Nova Launcher, etc... Not a big deal.

Anyways, my feature request I think got lost in this sea of messages... many posts have a tab named "Feature requests" where you can create them, but I don't see them here. What's the best way to have your ideas reach the devs?

Thanks

Every time when I launch youtube vanced, it pops up the firstly notification about changelog of new version & this happens every time when I launch it & is like to open it for first time with the result the settings which I have changed to be cahanged to default when I reopen the youtube vanced. Why ?

Thanks Very helpful

Thanks mate, tried looking for the Youtube app under "Battery optimisation" and it's...missing! Any ideas?

FWIW am using a OP7 non-pro, rooted with Magisk and Youtube Vanced installed via Magisk.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
If YouTube, it might be classified under "show system apps" if pre-installed.

Just a guess....
[Android Apps and Games] moi123:
I did check - no such option. Under Battery Optimisation the only options are "All Apps" (default) or "Non-optimised apps". :-/

Hello, the non-root solution worked on my device until yesterday, it FCed till today.

When I uninstalled the microG module, Youtube Vanced works normally. But it shows many sh*tty contents trending in my country, which is the main reason I prefer to log into my Google account, which can't be done without microG on non-rooted phones.

I checked with logcat apps, and found many exceptions being thrown. The most prominent one is this:

[IMG="vanced log"]https://i.imgur.com/FbqMl5d.jpg[/IMG]

[Android Apps and Games] palmbeach05:
Btween your initial setup and now, what themes did you install? Remove them all and reinstall them one by one and you should find the conflicting theme

[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:

did you disable it?

uninstalling it without disabling might not disable the theme properly.

I wish to see youtube premium features in Vanced.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Like what? If your looking to download videos and that then forget about as the devs have already said that wont be added.

If you want premium features than just pay for premium and don't ask the devs to create something illegal and wares
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
You want Premium, pay for it.

Vanced is not piracy software.
[Android Apps and Games] cidxtc:
Vanced is compatible with premium features? I don't have premium and dont plan on getting it but was wondering if it was supported if paid for.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You dont pay Vanced. "You pay YouTube to get YouTube Red if you want premium features" was the meaning of that post
[Android Apps and Games] dylansmith:
Hi guys, I'm on S8 using Alexis ROM 7.4, and have tried using both the Magisk and Root version of the Vanced app.

The issue is that regardless of what I do - uninstalling all stock updates, disable auto-update, detach from store, freeze using titanium backup, it almost always reverts back to stock YouTube app upon restarting my phone.

Why is that so, and is there a better workaround to resolve this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Oops. Sorry, I am unable to help further.

If YT is in the system, it should be listed under all apps.

---------- Post added at 05:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 AM ----------

Ok..I think the YouTube app was either disabled or uninstalled.

If this happens, it will not be listed in battery optimisation list.

First go to apps and notification - see all apps. If installed but disabled, it will still show and marked "disabled".

Enable it and when you go to battery optimisation, it should be listed under all apps.
[Android Apps and Games] cidxtc:
Yes but that was not my question. Sorry my curiosity wasn't worth a real reply.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
if you pay for YouTube premium through the YouTube website or official app it will unlock premium features and content in vanced.

as far as I know it's not possible to subscribe through vanced.
[Android Apps and Games] Yousha_T:
Yea quickstar was causing options to be greyed out.

So even after disabling it I don't get dark notifications of subscribed channel :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] moi123:
Under Apps, it is Enabled (i.e. I have the option to Disable the app, unlike other apps which have the "Uninstall" option)... What if I remove it (via Magisk) and install it via the APK ?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I just asked a friend who has OP6T, he said oneplus doesn't allow manual optimization of system apps. So, YouTube app installed with magisk will be non-optimized by default.

So this report:

Is not related to app optimization.

You sure you have not updated app on playstore and not using normal YouTube?

[Android Apps and Games] Electrolite_XYZ:
I'd like some help please. I unintalled youtube using root uninstaller and installed vanced using Magisk. It worked fine but I forgot to turn off the auto-updates so I lost Vanced. Then I uninstalled the Youtube app with root uninstaller again, removed Vanced modules, reboot and tried to install Vanced using Magisk again.

The Vanced icon won't appear for me.

I saw some people with similar issues and the solution was usually manual installing. I wanted to keep things systemlessly. Is there any way to fix the Magisk Vanced module?

EDIT:

Ok I managed to make it work, let me try to explain what I did. Root Unistaller saves the apk it deletes. I reinstalled Youtube but for some reason it was not considered as a system app anymore (I couldn't disable it to get the older update only uninstall it).

I installed Vanced anyway, as expected it didn't work (still official youtube since it was updated). After almost 30 minutes of rebooting, installing Vanced, removing Vanced for some reason my phone eventually decided that this youtube that I recovered from Root Uninstaller was in fact a system app. I disabled it (removing all it's updates but also removing it from the app drawer) and enabled it again (to make it show in the drawer), I installed Vanced as usual with Magisk and it worked
[Android Apps and Games] :
Soooo, I just installed Vance's after trying to use the Normal YouTube app. Right of the bat I noticed that there are three versions. One for Non-Root, one is a TWRP installer and last one is Magisk. I'm wanna know which one is best, and what's the difference (if any) between the three. My first choice as to install the Magisk version on my Nexus 6P, rooted with latest Magisk. I downloaded the Black Theme and before proceeding I converted YouTube to User app and then Uninstalled it. After that I flashed it in Magisk and got a Bootloop. Deleted the Vanced file via TWRP and booted up successfully. Now I have currently installed the Non-Root version along with MicroG. I'm obviously not trying the Magisk version anytime soon and deciding to flash the TWRP Version. Before I proceed I wanna know if there is any difference? Should I install via TWRP, give Magisk a second go, or just stick with Non-Rooted? Thanks.

I read the OP. There is no mention of difference. I did a little research (no way I'm reading through a 1000+ pages. I did search however) and came up with nothing. Hoping one of you guys can set me straight.

Also another thing. On the Non-Root Version I'm not getting notifications of new videos. Is this Normal? Or something only with Non-Root Version and can be fixed in Magisk or TWRP Version. Thanks. ???

Edit. Fixed Notifications. Just needed to grant the permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] palmbeach05:
Three versions = how you install. There is no "best".

Differences

Option 1 - use this if you are not rooted

Option 2 - use this if you want to flash via recovery

Option 3 - use this if you have magisk
[Android Apps and Games] :
So. From what I gather it's all about how you want to install and the three versions are functionally similar to each other. And that the Root or Magisk versions have no advantage over the Non-Root version?
[Android Apps and Games] AeonGV_:
I installed the Magisk version through the repo, placed a enable_detach file in /cache and rebooted. The app is here but, after some time it always update by yourself, even it not appears anymore in "my apps" list in Play Store and when I search for it there's no option to enable/disable the auto update (I have set the option to off before uninstall the original and installing through Magisk).

The detach.log file in /cache says:

--- LOOP STARTED Sat Jul 20 16:54:39 -03 2019

16:54:39 - Next check in 60 seconds

16:54:39 - com.google.android.youtube NOT FOUND!

16:54:39 - Next check in 60 seconds

So, what's going on? How can I really stop it to update? Thanks in advance and sorry for the bad English

Exactly.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------

This has been discussed multiple times. We are well aware of the broken detach script. There is a detach script magisk module, you should find their thread and provide them with logs so that they may try to fix the breakage that we see here.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
No. The Non-Root one has a different identifier which means it will not be auto-updated by the playstore (advantage), but youtube links will not be auto redirected to it (disadvantage). The root versions (Magisk and TWRP flash) can be replaced by an update from the playstore (disadvantage, no personal experience with Magisk version here:o), but it will open youtube links automatically from other apps by default, just like YouTube would (advantage). I haven't read it for a while, but it is all explained in the OP or the first few posts of this thread.

---------- Post added at 12:40 ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 ----------

You should not/can't mix the detach method with the "disable auto update" method. The detach script will delete the record which stores the "disable auto update"; ie it will no longer be there, and when it is re-inserted, the auto updates will be turned on, and YouTube will get updated. I am, surprised that I have not read this here before; ie that the detach script and the disable option are not to be both used together.:confused:

One option to try is to disable the detach script/trigger, and when the YouTube record re-appears in your installed apps, then set the "disable auto update" option.

Hi,

I've tried looking for an answer here but couldn't find anything relevant. I use vanced for listening to music and every couple of songs it just stops and the popup comes up "Video paused. Continue watching?". I just need to press any button on my remote and it plays again. It's quite annoying, especially when I'm busy. Couldn't find anything in the settings, I turned battery optimization off for vanced but it didn't help. Is there a way to switch that off?
[Android Apps and Games] MrRubik20:
I am using the Magisk Vanced and all works really well, except I keep having this one problem. I have attached a picture so you can see it. Anytime I am watching a video, the pause and rewind/FF buttons stay in the middle of my video. Nothing I do will make them go away, not even waiting a minute. If anyone can tell me how to fix this, I'd very much appreciate it.

I have Q Beta 5 on a Pixel 3a.

YT Vanced works fine (14.21.54)....if I don't install Microg package (0.2.6.17455) non root.

If i install MicroG, I get Youtube Vanced keeps stopping app info, close app, however, Vanced does sometimes open in the back ground fine, but u cant use it.

Remove MicroG and Vanced opens fine.

Is it a permission issue for Vanced or MicroG?

I have been testing the apps that I use in Q and a couple, as of now, do need to have the user go in and manually grant permissions.

The public release of Q, is to be released next month (August) so is reported.

I've been trying to get Vanced reinstalled on my moto e4 after a crash and factory reset. I tried using the guide to get past getting stuck on the "I agree" page which worked but now it gets stuck on the "Just a sec... your device is contacting Google to..." etc. etc. Nothing is working and I've tried all methods that don't involve rooting, which I have no intention of doing. Are there any suggestions on what the problem is? I don't think it's supposed to take an hour for the app to connect my account.

[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
did you install the latest microG from the vanced.app website before or after installing vanced?
[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu676:
Yep, I installed Vanced 14.10.53 White/Dark first, then without opening the app I installed MicroG 0.2.4-105. Then I try logging in with google chrome disabled.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
any reason you're not using the latest version of either app?
[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu676:
Well, they didn't work. I don't think my phone's architecture is compatible, so I went with the latest all architecture version.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
I don't see any reason why the latest versions shouldn't work, people are running it on much older devices.
[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu676:
I'll try it again and see what happens. The app would crash every time I opened it with the latest version. Maybe I'm getting the APK's from the wrong source.

BUG: No user-icon/DP/channel-logo in Youtube Vanced

Android version:

6.0.1 (non-rooted device)

Youtube Vanced version:

14.21.54 (no-root)

>> No user-icon/DP/channel-logo is showing up in Youtube Vanced. Now, even my account logo has gone blank (in this app) after I signed up into Vanced microG (version: 0.2.6.17455). Everything else is fine.

Images depicting the bug:

https://postimg.cc/gallery/p138f7xk

P. S.

1) Both Youtube Vanced and Vanced MicroG have been downloaded from https://vanced.app website

2) I had not altered anything before this bug appeared

THE ISSUE IS AUTOMATICALLY RESOLVED NOW
[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu676:
Yeah, version 14.21.54 doesn't work on my phone. App keeps stopping whenever it's opened. I guess I'll wait for the next update or something.
[Android Apps and Games] Nosferatu676:
Alright, I tried signing in with a different account and it worked fine. Vanced won't let me sign in with my primary account I was using when my phone completely broke and had to factory reset it. So I guess because my phone is considered a new phone, does that mean I can't use the same account anymore?

Update:

Every other Google account I have signs in to Vanced no problem. My main account that I use for subscriptions, playlists and watching stays at the login screen in perpetuity. This is the same account I used for Vanced before my phone crashed yesterday and I had to factory reset and reinstall the app. Is there some kind of registry error going on and is there a way to fix it?
