You can remove recommendations and cards that appear while watching videos on settings/vanced settings/layout tab, BUT if you get distracted by video thumbnails that show up after finishing a video (horizontal) or below video (vertical), that is another story, because then you want devs to control your willpower, which is impossible. My suggestion is, close the video before it is finished so that you don't get distracted by those.

About home/trending tab, you can get rid of them by a simple swipe. If you want it to be automated each time you open the app, write a tasker script (don't ask how? because it is offtopic here) and done.

See logs in your post. It looks like you didn't disable signature verification after all:

And how were you able to install this before but not you can't?

Cant reach vanced.app site

Trying to install vanced again after flashing a new ROM, and have not been able to access the site. This issue has plagued me for a long time but it seems to be exclusive to me for some reason.

I have tried accessing the site via my broadband and mobile data, on multiple different browsers across multiple different devices, it just says the connection has timed out or the site can't be reached.

I wouldn't post about this generally because in the past I would just download the latest version from the Mediafire uploads, but it seems that the new versions have not been uploaded on mediafire yet.

Could someone please provide me with the black apks file and microg please here, or if the devs could update the mediafire folder.

Thanks

I'm sorry, how exactly do I remove the home and trending tab with 'a simple swipe'?

And regarding me wanting to get rid of video recommendations, that doesn't sound like controlling my willpower to me. I just want there to be no suggestions/recommendations at all in the video player screen, both the cards (which I've turned off already) and the videos listed below the channel info in the video player screen.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I want to get only video and no comments, no about video info and no thanks below the video, or any texts about video title or user who uploaded it. That is how your desire looks like from side.

A simple swipe? Well, you open YouTube, then swipe once for trends and swipe once more for subscriptions. Or, you open YouTube and click on subscriptions icon. Or. AS I ALREADY WROTE BEFORE, write a tasked script. It takes less than seconds to move to subscriptions. Let's not ask a separate mod for that.

And yes, if you don't want to open videos one after another, then you have willpower. If you can't control it and get sucked into YouTube watch loop, then you have no control over yourself. I don't think an app can help you. You may need to see a professional person on the topic. If you cannot control yourself I dont think absence of those recommendations will have any effect.

So, let's be realistic with mods requests.

No issue with website. Try vpn if you are somehow blocked.

Please could "swipe to seek" be added?

I installed Vanced because i thought it is an obvious functionality in 2020, but i was wrong...

Only brightness and volume.

Pity, i have to go back to YouTube 13.02.58 because swipe to seek is a must have functionality for me, and it works with the blueberry6401's Xposed module.

Are there any plans to add it to the YT Vanced?

I want to try a newer version of YT someday :)

Great that it (Vanced) works with google sign-in, i didn't even have to re-log in, background playback also works fine, on Redmi 4 Prime MIUI 9.5 Android 7.1.2 :)
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
As far as I know that mod doesn't work on later versions of YouTube after those early ones. So, no.

And no need for that. It is very easy to navigate on video by holding and moving dot on timeline. So, that is obsolete now with newer navigation on YouTube videos in mobile.

:eek:

It is not necessary to change it, Google does not limit them as developers to compile in certain formats, its a shame, months waiting for the update to finish again in the old version.

[Android Apps and Games] _euphonic_:
Where can I get it and what kind of rom?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You can install. But you didn't even read. I installed rooted on my rooted phone and nonroot on my unrooted phone. All is ok. All you need to do is to report properly to get help or not post if you dont expect help. Don't think that your post will change anything in world - devs will not shift to apk files after reading your post.

You just need to READ to be able to install. If you are lazy, then you will not be able to. But then, don't blame devs, blame your lazyness to not read and not understand.

You are condemned to use old version until you start reading first post and vanced.app site.

This mod took quite some time to get it to work. Considering that with the infinitesimal amount of time you will spend in READING the procedure, it is so pity to see such a response from a user on such a forum like XDA. I really do understand why devs are leaving projects. Very disappointed by reading such comments.

It really doesn't take that much time. Really

İnstalled using by twrp, looking way to figured out how to delete YouTube vanced permanently. So I can use the Normal one.

Help me please
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Explain your steps. If you installed with method A, then use the same method to remove it. But you either not using latest version or you didn't even read instructions. I don't know which it is and would rather not guess by myself. We will wait for your full report showing your steps before going further for troubleshoot and find out why YOU are having an issue that nobody has.

E.g. if you used a flashable script, reverse engineer it. Read the script and reverse it. If it is a script then it copies apk file into system/app/youtube folder. So navigate to that folder with root explorer or twrp file manager and remove the apk file and reboot.

So we need to know specifics and details of your installation to be able to help you.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
First, make a nandroid.

While in Recovery:

Then delete any reference to YouTube in your Magisk modules path (I think its like /data/adb/modules/YouTube, but you may not have it)

Then check and delete: /system/app/YouTube, /system/priv-app/YouTube, /data/app/*youtube*, /data/data/*youtube*

Wipe your dalvik, and cache

Reboot to system

The above should pretty much clear any hints of a YouTube installation, from which point you can install from the playstore.

The only thing not covered in the above, which may affect you, are the records in the vending database, but lets cross that bridge if the above fails. But I think if you go into the playstore and manually install YouTube, that will clean up the YouTube records in the database anyway.

good luck.

[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Use the non root version if you need both YouTube apps installed.

Just make sure you download and install the Vanced MicroG first (normal installation) followed by the VYT apks using SAI.

The instructions on the download page is straightforward. I didn't even adjust any setting in SAI.

Also ensure you download the correct version for your device (legacy is for 32 bit). Default for 64 bit.

Good luck. Cheers!

However for non-rooted version facing following issue.

v15 gives installation error.

- Default - App is incompatible error.

- Legacy - App name conflict error. ( There is no app in /system/app. There was one youtube app in /system/pre-app which I renamed)

v14

- installs fine.

- MicroG is installed + account is setup.

[Android Apps and Games] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

Can someone please help me with a stupid question about the microG and Non-Root version?

FYI, I definitely did not have to deal with "split files" last time, which was my first install of it.

When I go to the Vanced web site and set it to download Vanced Non-Root Dark, there's two Download buttons, one for Vanced YT and the other for microG.

The microG file downloads fine as a single Apk.

However, there's instructions for the Vanced YT that leads me to the SAI app in Play and it talks about it being used to install the split APK files.

When I tap the Download button for Vanced YT, only one file downloads, but the File Extension is "APKS" instead of "APK" ("S" is for "Split"?). But there's no second file, so what "split"? I don't see any other Download button for Vanced YT.

What is going on here, please? What am I missing (I looked a half-dozen times)? What do I do, please?

I remember clearly that the first time I installed it (most recent before this update), there was simply the microG Apk and the Vanced Non-Root YT Apk and that was it. No split files for the Vanced YT install and no SAI app necessary. I still have them and just looked again.

I Thank You All for Any Help!

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] Android450:
Hello,

I've been searching around and I couldn't find an answer for this, but I've tried to download the latest Vanced 15.05.54 non-root, and when I click download for the vanced apk I'm given a .bin file that SAI does not see.

Any help to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Silent Lain:
Correct, you download and install microG like you would with any other APK file. And you are also correct that there were no APKS prior to recent releases. I assume Google is the root cause for that change.

For vanced, the app comes in an "android application bundle", the file format is APKS. That's multiple APKs (plural) in a single APKS (singular) file, so downloading a "single APKS file" from vanced.app is correct.

APKS has been introduced by Google 2 - 3 years ago, to bundle APKs for different screen densities, Android versions, architecture or a combination of them into a single APKS file (the "S" stands for split), to help developers not needing to manage multiple APKs, for a dynamic delivery of features and to reduce overall file size. It is all done in the background and not intended to interfere with any user interaction.

However only Google Play is capable to properly handle and install APKS files, not the Android device itself, which means Android currently cannot install manually downloaded APKS without a workaround which is why you have to use the SAI app to install APKS.

TL;DR:

Download and install microg.apk as normal.

Download a single vanced.apks file (there aren't multiples).

Download and install SAI from Google play store.

Use SAI to install your single vanced.apks file.

Profit.
[Android Apps and Games] silver2004:
If you have problems with SAI (the split apps installer) try going to SAI's options and go to the section

"Installer" and select the middle option - Rooted. (provided that you have root).

It helped me on my Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime on MIUI 9.5 on Nougat.

(rootless method didn't work for some apps in my case).

and the extension .apks is normal, it's not a bug, it should be .apks for a split config Android app.

Can we remove apk splitter after installation?
[Android Apps and Games] PoochyX:
Yes apk splitter can be removed, however if you enable signature verification again the app will stop working
[Android Apps and Games] Kuchayhilal:
Fixed latest update installing error in non-rooted device, steps:

-Download microG.

-Download vanced but legacy version.

-Install microG first (most important)

-Install vanced through SAI.

Note: installing vanced first force closes the app, soo install microG first.

Enjoy.

How to install Youtube Vanced 15.05.54 using Magisk?

Yes I know that the magisk version is no longer supported BUT...

Is there a Youtube Vanced zip file version 15.05.54 which can be installed

using TWRP?

The 14.xx.xx youtube vanced version did not require microG and the

"Video Enhancement" feature worked fine and now with the 15.05.54

apk/apks version the Video Enhancer no longer works in Youtube Vanced

and rooted or not the new version requires microG for a full featured

normal installation if you want to log into Youtube.

So I simply installed Youtube Vanced using Magisk with the 14.xx.xx

version of Youtube Vanced using twrp.

All that's really needed is a twrp flashable 15.05.54 version of Youtube Vanced.

It does not need to be a Magisk module.

All comments welcome! - Have a great day everyone!
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:

[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Those are same steps that are written in first post. The only difference is you wrote to chose legacy version. That is wrong. You need legacy ONLY if your device is made before 2016 with no arm64 chip (see attachment). Please do not confuse users with such procedures. It is already written and explained very well on vanced.app site and first post here.

You still haven't read first post. Please read it. You will find explanations for it. Keyword: new youtube update changes.

Yes. User confused everything. First post explains very well what needs to be done
[Android Apps and Games] Kuchayhilal:
Buddy i'm using J7 NXT 2017, i read all the instructions but still i wasn't able to install latest version of YouTube vanced but then i tried legacy version & it worked. I'm not confusing anyone; i'm sharing the procedure that worked for me. Many people are facing similar issue even after following all the instructions. I think one try won't make any difference for anyone.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
You just didnt read again. Even my post. It says after 2016 AND with ARM64. Did you read characteristics of your device? It has arm, not arm64. So you NEED TO USE LEGACY. Please. Please read instructions. It is written very well. All you need to do is concentrate and read carefully. And also know your device (hundreds of apps to check your device for arm or arm64 on playstore)

Your post is confusing users (though I hope not very much of users read posts before theirs, so that could be calming) as it says that "if you have any installing issues, use legacy". But that is not the only reason for having issues in installation. And steps are same as written in first post... So, basically what your post does is, just confuse some users with installation issues.
