[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
you tried removing your account from the micro G app and not just from Vanced correct?
[Android Apps and Games] ficicaaa:
i don't have micro g app
[Android Apps and Games] gonsa:
So, I uninstalled the youtube updates and installed the magisk module through the repo. That's it.

What should I do next?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
So with the version from the magisk repo, put a file (can be empty) called "enable_detach" into your /cache directory (in the root of your phone) and reboot the phone. 60 seconds after reboot the app gets detached from playstore. If u want to disable detaching again put a file called "disable_detach" (can be empty) into /cache directory and reboot the phone like with detaching 60 seconds after reboot it gets attached to playstore again.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Are you using the root or non root version?

Non root requires microg for signing in.
[Android Apps and Games] ficicaaa:
i menage it.. it was a problem with microg ver
[Android Apps and Games] Jalh:
Anyone ?
[Android Apps and Games] gonsa:
I've created that file in the place you mentioned (see attach) but I'm still getting the update notification...
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You rebooted your phone waited 60 seconds and then check the Play Store? And it still shows an update available for YT in the playstore?

That way works for me. That's the method listed in the read.me file for the module in magisk repo. I've used it and it works fine. Some say it doesn't work on their devices, not sure why. I have a Moto E4, stock ROM (7.1.1 nougat) and it worked on that. Also on my Nexus 9. Just tested it.
[Android Apps and Games] The Analog Kid:
Do not debate anymore. Just get an Android.
[Android Apps and Games] m00h:
I installed the YouTube Vanced version from Magisk repo. Now it shows up in Play Store under My Apps as an app that can be updated.

I know, that at some point, while updating other apps, I will accidentaly update that app because I prefer to press "update all apps".

Any way to prevent that? Any way to exclude youtube app from the Play Store update list?
[Android Apps and Games] zelendel:
Had you searched (you know, followed the rules) you would have seen this brought up about 10,000 times. In the end, no. Google scans your device every so often and while you can fool it for a short time it will always find it as it has googles signature. As for the update all. That is something you will just have to get used to. I have about 14 apps in my list that need updates but IO refuse to update them for one reason or another. So they just sit there. Youtube being one of them.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Open the module zip you downloaded as a compressed folder , reach out to readme.md and actually read it. You might find some useful info there concerning your question.
[Android Apps and Games] JBabey:
If your using the Magisk version, just use titanium backup and uninstall youtube completely from the device, reboot, then install the magisk module for Vanced....

Anyone got Pinch to Zoom feature working on other phones than S8? have a galaxy tab s3 and s4 and cant get it work

Thanks in advance​
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Tab s3 and s4 have lower screen ratio than 16:9 (rather than bigger phones with ratios like 18:9, 18.5:9 or 19.5:9). I am not sure whether pinch to zoom was done to avoid only low height screens or low width screens are supported. From what I recall, the pinch to zoom should be to eliminate empty spaces on sides, not on top and bottom as in your case (e.g. while watching 4:3 video on 16:9 screen you also can pinch to zoom to remove black sides).
[Android Apps and Games] wallyhenderson:
tab s3 is 4:3 and tab s4 is 16:10 tried all kind of videos with different ratios and pinch to zoom does not work..
[Android Apps and Games] TT_Vert:
FIgured I'd ask since I saw no setting. Is there a way to prevent having to press that X in the bottom right to get rid of the play/pause button when you first start playing something? It doesn't go away on its own ever.

Thanks

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
It goes away after 3 seconds. To make it go away, just click on empty space on screen. If you are using accessibility for reading/seeing, you may need to disable them
[Android Apps and Games] TT_Vert:
Ahh yes, I had to enable accessibility for "ok google" beeps to happen. With that disabled ok google does not beep. With that said, this never goes away unless I press the X. Are you saying even w/ accessibility enabled this should go away after 3 seconds?

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
No, accessibility features bring that "X" and when you have that X, the overlay doesn't go away on its own.
[Android Apps and Games] TT_Vert:
Great thank you for taking the time to answer!

I've installed the latest microg and k can't login still. Also Given all access to all permissions. Help
[Android Apps and Games] anuraganasane:
Force stop the app and try. Or reinstalling might help.
[Android Apps and Games] mrjuniork:
If you are using xposed, then yes, there is a permanent way. The app is called SudoHide, works perfectly without any side effects and also survives a reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] sagor1:
It's works.I wish this mod app have built in features for bypassing it.I know i am greedy coz this app allreay giving us a lot.

But one thing i didn't understand now a days specially music channel doing this a lot.

Isn't more views make them more money?
[Android Apps and Games] zawap:
Hey guys,

quick question, I was trying to install vanced app through the magisk repo. Magisk manager and magisk is installed, so far so good. But when I want to search for the vanced module it doesn't show up. In magisk manager I go to downloads and then tap on search and type in vanced. No result and I tried all the other names like iYTBP and even went through the list, but it's not there.

I also went to settings and cleared the repo cache but it's still not showing up. Anybody have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Update to magisk 17.2 beta or 17.1 stable. Your using an older version of magisk
[Android Apps and Games] zawap:
Man you good;) and thanks for the quick reply. I am using an older version of magisk, how did you know that?

I once updated to the newest magisk version and my phone went into a bootloop so that's why I'm not too eager to try that again.

So another other way would be to download the magisk version of vanced and flash it in magisk? Could you tell me the exact steps how to do that and what file if have to use?

I know it's been posted many times in this thread, but there are so many ways and I don't want to screw it up.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Its a common issue on the latest release.

I would advise just updating to the latest stable release of magisk. I also uploaded the module here maybe it will work on the older magisk if not then you will need to update magisk. Here is the module (black themed) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1reHUaGgrqVRzGNRDK_BfI4-cQJX9tglG/view?usp=drivesdk
[Android Apps and Games] gonsa:
Yes I created the file in root/cache and rebooted. Still get the update notification. I'm on OnePlus 5 8.1.
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
The last week or so i get a lot of ads in front of videos when casting to my Nvidia Shield. It's only in front of the video and only when I cast. Playing YouTube on my phone there are no ads.

Any solution for this, or is this Google doing?
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
when casting you're actually using the official YouTube app on the receiver, even if you're casting from vanced.

your options are to cast your display, or get YouTube premium.
[Android Apps and Games] xell75:
Hello guys, I plan to switch from my old Galaxy S4 to an Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 soon, one thing I wanna ask (maybe a noob question) but if YouTube is pre-installed as system app, can I just update it with the non-root version or do I have to deactivate the original youtube app first?
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
the non-root version installs as a separate app, so you can have both installed at the same time.
[Android Apps and Games] introvertme:
Didn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] xell75:
Thanks for the info mate, good to know :)
[Android Apps and Games] KevinX8:
Uh what exactly is different about them? Also I would appreciate if you kept unauthorised clones off this thread thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] joesphroth:
This happens to me sometimes along with a similar issue: When playing a playlist with screen off and using headphones it will not automatically go to the next video and just stops. Using the lock screen I am able to click next.

I am using LineageOS 14.1 on a Moto X Style XT1575
[Android Apps and Games] Vivek Kantesaria:
Youtube vanced = 76MB

And Lite Mod = 31MB

And i was just reporting..
[Android Apps and Games] anuraganasane:
I'm also using the non root version and micro g, didn't face any such issue. Try to wipe phone's cache and then install it.
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
Okay thanks,

Still wierd it's only in front of the video and not in between or does PIA VPN block the rest on my Nvidia Shield?
[Android Apps and Games] TasEsmuEs:
The same happens to me but in Samsung device and other media apps too (Spotify, Emby, Plex, YT Vanced). Seems like issue with too aggresive power managament recently. Even when whitelisting apps it still needs to be opened to start playing next video/song. Totally annoyed by this bug. Started after October security patch.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You didn't understand my post. Have you tried 4:3 video on s tab s4?
[Android Apps and Games] shadowstep:
This is what I see when I open the second link in the message you quoted:

Removed and cleaned traces of advertising

Disconnected collection analytics

Removed debugging information

Optimizing graphics iCatalyst

Removed duplicate graphics left hdpi

Deleted all localizations except ru, en, uk

Compression: Ultra + Zipalign

Signature test (for Non-Root)

It's basically a mod of your original mod. Mod Inception. :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] Vivek Kantesaria:
Is it any good? :laugh:

I mean it loads way faster so..
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Well they remove the debugging which the developers used to find bugs

They removed every language except for two

They remove all other DPI

removed basically everything that makes it Universal to all devices countries and users

Added in God knows what...

You can trust it on your device if you like living on the dangerous side or don't value your personal information.
[Android Apps and Games] n00bchicken:
Is there a way to get the bars on the side of videos to be black when not cropped in on 18:9 screens?
[Android Apps and Games] shadowstep:
No clue. I didn't even know it existed before the links were posted in this thread. Not planning on trying it either. I'm happy with the official version and plan on sticking to it. :)
[Android Apps and Games] ikarank60:

[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
If you're using older versions of VYT, don't use the latest microg.

The -105 microg is for v13 of VYT if I'm not wrong. Previously on v12 (I think), I was still using the legacy version of microg.

Also microg should not be installed to external SD card. (Some issue posted a few pages before this.)

Try removing the existing VYT account from device - settings - accounts (blue background Old Google icon), then sign in again.

These are the things I did previously. Currently using non root without experiencing any issues.
[Android Apps and Games] drorhaz:
Hi there is some issues with the last update. After the update - some of the videos shows 1080p but actually run on 144p (the vanced video settings set to 1080p) even manual changing to 1080p not working.. its remain on bad quality and shows 1080p.
[Android Apps and Games] wallyhenderson:
I undestood friend... tried 4:3 videos on both! S3 and s4... but all kind of ratios too, with black bars at the side and at top and bottom... on both tablets and pinch to zoom does not work....

I have said in previus post tried all kind of videos with different ratios
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Sometimes the black bars are part of the video and the black bars are visible because of that. Don't know if it's the case here but it could be.
[Android Apps and Games] wallyhenderson:
No friend... tried more than 20 videos on tablets and on my wife s9 and the same videos on s9 has pinch to zoom working on tabs does not... definitely pinch to zoom is not working on both devices
[Android Apps and Games] adek89:
You also have that how on a smartphone watch a movie from the channel that you have Subscriptions to pc you still have the number of videos on the channel further to watch even though you have seen them on your smartphone? I have so on the original app and on this thread, it is very annoying

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You have that problem because you failed to read the faq section. That's very annoying. Look for "is history working". Also use the search function of the thread for "history not working".

Not only is your solution in the beginning of this thread in the instructions (FAQ) but it's also been asked and answered dozens and dozens of times.

either whitelist YouTube in your ad blocker if you're using one, or if you were using a brand account on YouTube you'll need to merge your accounts.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Notification? Did you turn off notification for updates in the Play Store?
[Android Apps and Games] SJD Ayy:
What is the is last known version of Vanced YT that works with the YouTubeSwipetoSeek Xposed module? I'm currently on version 13.28.54 and the module works here. Was considering updating YouTube since it's been a while.
[Android Apps and Games] gonsa:
I didn't turn this off because I want to receive notifications for all the other apps.

I just don't want to receive for youtube.
[Android Apps and Games] khayzer:
i have error in flashing but i got also the solution

1. Put the universal installer .zip and the apk to Download folder in the internal memory

2. Flash TWRP ;)

PS: if you cannot find the specific architecture on your phone, download this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inkwired.droidinfo&hl=en

and go to system and find the specific architecture for your phone
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
That's exactly what it says to do in the op though :confused:

So maybe reading the instructions before flashing is the solution:highfive:

[Android Apps and Games] cacaz01:
Has it ever been down like that before? In using it for 7 years and I haven't seen it being down (maybe I didn't use enough?)
[Android Apps and Games] IH8TouchWiz:
Guys, instead of spamming this thread with "YouTube isn't working for me", since it's a known issue on YouTube's end, maybe use something like this: https://downdetector.com/status/youtube to keep track of it's status. Repeating that it's down over and over does no one any good, and just clutters the thread and makes the lives of the moderators harder.

any tips how to get this right?
[Android Apps and Games] ibuddler:
First of all, thanks dev for the great work. I'm using it to stream video on my chromecast, but it plays ads crazy. Like one ads every 5 minutes. When I use official YouTube on my iPhone, I don't see these ads. Any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] DrioniX:
Wow.. After youtube recover from down, now Youtube Vanced show ads :(
[Android Apps and Games] drorhaz:
I found some sort of fix for now.. you need to exit from the app and go back (during the running video) its work for now.. i hope they fix this on the next update.
[Android Apps and Games] blossom:
Thanks for the tips and it's working

The thing is we have to exit the app everytime we start a new video.

Considering downgrade might be a better solution?

[Android Apps and Games] j-a-d-z:

[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
get youtube premium, or cast your screen.

vanced can't change the app on your chromecast.
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
Same issue, except with the official YouTube app (non premium) while casting I get less ads. I don't know what it is about Chromecast but it bypasses ad blockers, third party YouTube apps while casting. Might fix it if you use Seven Clear ad blocker and run the app through Parallel Space.
[Android Apps and Games] joluke:
One of the things that I noticed it is a massive bug (at least for me it is). Is that you can't click playlists after you have one playing. It's annoying because i have my phone connected to my car stereo via Bluetooth and the Playlist doesn't responde to clicking with the finger (doesn't open).

That's why a new version would be welcome in my perspective

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Uh, no. I just went through about 10 videos to check. No ads.
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
If you're getting ads it's due to your region, can't get rid of all of them. At least that's what I was told.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
I guess that would be annoying.

I don't use VYT with BT connection to other devices so I'm unable to help here. Sorry about that.

When I try to sign in, it shows me my account, but says "Check network connection". I must say, it worked first time, but then the app broke, so I cleared data and cache. Now is doing that.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Try going into your device's settings to the account section and look for the Google account that's the old blue Google logo. That's micro G make sure to log out of it there. Then try logging in again in Vanced
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Just a suggestion.. Not be responsible if anything breaks .

Shut down device and try again after powering up. (had similar issues when resetting phones and trying to setup, once upon a time).

If still same issue, try one more step - remove the account and sign in again.

- If non root version, remove the microg account. Then sign in from VTY.

- If using the main Google account of device, remove then add it again from the settings.

Hoping this works for you.

Hello developers,

YouTube vanced works normally on my device after two installs.

However, I have noticed that it appears as "no info provided" in Magisk manager whenever it works, and appears normal when it wouldn't work.

System is Xiaomi Mix 2s on Miui Global Developers 8.10.11 based on Pie. YouTube was a system app.

Please kindly ignore this if it wouldn't help your development. Your product is fabulous!

[Android Apps and Games] MPenguin:
My YouTube Vanced refuses to detach from the Play store.

I was running the Magisk version and then I started getting YouTube updates in store. Decided use start fresh. Uninstalled Vanced, updated everything. Uninstalled YouTube updates. Downloaded the root version with the .sh file. Set it to detach. Flashed the installer in Magisk. It generated a detach script. Checked the store: no updates.

Next day there was a YouTube update. I tried forcing YouTube to detach with Titanium Backup. Seemed to work.

Today: another YouTube update.

What an I doing wrong? Why won't it detach?
