i fixed it just now, by removing the stock app with "terminal debloater" (magisk module), and then afterwards you're able to install vanced again through the manager.
[Android Apps and Games] brockyneo:
I'm also getting endless notifications I've just turned off notifications for the app until fixed not a huge problem,Fantastic app as always great work device 👍
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
Oh, and thanks to the team for fixing the casting bug where the connection gets kicked/reset when connecting/reconnecting. Can now connect through multiple devices with Vanced and not have to worry about that.

How to Mount the Product folder in TWRP?

I can't find it.

Only System or Vendor etc
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Mountings are commonly different in live systems to TWRP. Have you checked for /system/product?

Also, running mount; or df -h; on your live system may give you a clue as to the source of the product partition. Even system/partition shows as a mount point.
[Android Apps and Games] joriq:
I don't have TWRP. Anyways, what do I lose if I keep the non-root version? What are the downsides? Does microG drain the battery or something?
[Android Apps and Games] Scennative:
No, you have the original YouTube - App and the version of Vanced simultaneously installed.

The root version replace the original with the Vanced version.
[Android Apps and Games] Hash-82:
I'm rooted with SuperSU 2.82.

The installer does not work for me.

Where are the instructions for manual installation?
[Android Apps and Games] Duvel999:
I tried it, with debloater.

But de folder system /product doesn't show up in terminal..

Any idea?
[Android Apps and Games] joriq:
I just disabled the original version 😎

Also, with the root version, whenever I go to the play store, it shows that there is an update for YT and I can't just use the "update all" option to update all my apps, I always have to pay attention not to update YT. Tried a few things, magisk modules, but was unable to hide it from being updated.

I might be missing something, but I don't see many reasons to go for the root version nowadays?
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
Not really. The latest versions are not able to stream to Chromecast (see attached screenshot) In this case you can use version 16.02.35, the last one without that issue. MicroG doesn't drain much battery for me, just some wake-ups.

Disable original YT and you're good to go. I don't get any update notifications and YT isn't showing up for updates in playstore.

I obtain this error when I try to cast the video to nest hub or tv. I need to update play services. But I can't find any updates on play store and Vanced and microg are updated to latest version.
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
Check this post and the screenshot (two above yours):

https://xdaforums.com/t/app-mod-root-nonroot-youtube-vanced-edition.3758757/post-86054857

In your case it's not Chromecast but when I try to cast with newer versions of Vanced I get exactly the same error. Updating Google Play Services doesn't help (btw, you can get those updates on APK Mirror).

Roll back to build 16.02.35 or earlier, that should solve the problem.

You can get older versions on the official YouTube Vanced website https://vancedapp.com/

Install it with SAI (Split APKs Installer) from playstore.

Hi everyone

Im using YC version: 16.29.39 non-root and recently my youtube account had stranger video in video history, is that youtube vanced "feature" that i dont know or something wrong with my account ? (I had chance my password for few times and logout from all device but the stranger videos still keep bumping)
[Android Apps and Games] beardymarrow:
I used the instructions here. Worked perfectly.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Vanced/comments/kppefk
[Android Apps and Games] yazzine:
Great App! But one small issue....

I love all the features in Vanced and even tho I already have a network wide adblocker I still find myself using this app if not just alone for the Sponsor block feature. For being in beta its very accurate and i am a big fan of how customizable the actions for it are. Tho im having one slight problem. This only happened once so far. I have an Samsung Galaxy S20 FE with Magisk 23.0, and randomly while i was watching videos youtube vanced crashed really badly. I couldnt even start the app and had to wait for a minute until it was able to start again but then just regular youtube started. Vanced Manager still thought it was working fine and was installed but after "uninstalling" it and reinstalling it worked fine. As i said only happened once for me so far but if anyone else had this issue and found a fix please feel free to share.
[Android Apps and Games] Irfy84:
This is a bug report.

1. YouTube Vanced 16.29.39 . However, using earlier versions does not help.

2/3. Installed via Vanced Manager by selecting "latest" version (=16.29.39)

4. OnePlus Nord 2 5G, model "DN2103", SoC "Dimensity 1200-AI Octa-core"

5. OxygenOS V11.3, Android 11 up-to-date

6. No Substratum overlays

7. https://pastebin.com/qnzNqYGZ

8. After phone restart, the icon changes to the youtube icon and the app crashes immediately. `adb logcat --buffer=crash` shows the above linked FATAL EXCEPTION trace. As if the system does something to youtube at startup that messes up vanced installation. Vanced Manager says the version is the same and all looks good. A full uninstall + install cycle is necessary to fix, nothing else helps (clearing cache, data, uninstalling updates, force stopping, etc. etc.). It sounds similar to what yazzine described in the previous post. It also happens randomly, after some time without any obvious triggers.

9. Magisk modules:

busybox,

detach (with an "every 2 minute" crond detach job for youtube+ytmusic: "*/2 * * * * su -c detach -t")

MagiskHide Props Config

Riru

Systemless Hosts

Universal SafetyNet Fix

I'll gladly provide more details if needed.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
What sounds suspicious tomme is that yu have a process running in the background, repeatedly, doing something to YouTube (your cron detach script) while you are running YouTube. Have you tested without the detach script running or even ran a single time after a fresh install?

PS: I created a detach method that does not require a cron job to ensure it stays detached.
[Android Apps and Games] Irfy84:
Yes, I first tried to one-off detach YT and it didn't work well, YouTube would re-appear in the list of apps to update all over again consistently. This was the reason for trying it with the cron-executed detach script because I know a similar script was being installed with Vanced YT when it was managed as a Magisk Module.

Note that the detach script is running every 2 minutes, and YouTube runs just fine after a fresh uninstall-install cycle for a long time. Checking now (8 hours later) YT is fine, so it may be that only a phone restart bricks the Vanced YT installation...

I will try TeMeFI detach and report if it works and if it changes anything.

The funky thing here is, that I also have a OnePlus 6T with OxygenOS 11.1.2.2 (Android 11), with an absolutely identical Vanced YT setup (including the cronjob) and it survives restarts just fine...

I feel that the key to the issue may be in the logcat output, and potentially further investigation around that, but my Android-Fu is weak and I can't interpret the issue and wouldn't know where to investigate further.
[Android Apps and Games] joriq:
Pls share that method?
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
search, its been posted many MANY times here.
[Android Apps and Games] joriq:

hi guys, i installed detach but then tried to install youtube again (lower version) and then vanced via magisk but youtube cant be installed. states that i have more current version already. even if i disabled or removed youtube via adb
[Android Apps and Games] celestialspring:
This discussion comes up time and again. For my own knowledge, I want to ask two questions:

For non power users, isn't the non root version good enough?

For root users, why can't you just delete the YouTube apk and be done with it?

Please enlighten!
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
You did not specify which method you used to detach.

It sounds likethe issue people have with installing / downgrading YT. Search the thread its been covered many many times.

For the root version, vanced IS the youtube APK.

And its not based on if you are a power user or not. There are "Power Users" that choose to install the Non-Root version.
[Android Apps and Games] porotikos:
i simply downloaded "detach" (latest version from this site) and installed the zip via magisk. thats all i did. but nothing. perhaps i needed to do something else? instructions didnt mention i needed to do anything else?
[Android Apps and Games] porotikos:
i did that but it doesnt work. i get an error when trying to install previous version of youtube, that i have a newer version installed (even if i dont)
[Android Apps and Games] porotikos:
tried just now with vanced manager. failed again since teh base app is higher version than vanced app....
[Android Apps and Games] celestialspring:
I only use the non root version now.

Someone else might be able to help you.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
"from this site" does not really specify what you are using. "This Site" is made up of thousands of individual private citizens. Its not a single company like Microsoft. Either way, maybe ask thye qiuestion on the trhead you downlaoded it from as well,. in case its a known issue with that detach method.
[Android Apps and Games] porotikos:
you are correct my friend. i used the detach zip from this thread. i used the latest version

https://xdaforums.com/t/module-detach3-detach-market-links.3447494/

i just installed it via magisk. then i simply removed youtube via adb. But when i tried to install a youtube apk with lower version number, it wouldnt get installed saying i already have a newer version. even if youtube was completely removed...

Hey all! There is no workaround other than installing old version? Since some recent Google Play Services app updates, YouTube and YouTube Music don't even work on my smart TV. It's funny that the app was developed with a message that accuses Google's service of being outdated, when in fact the problem is the opposite. Non-root version/Zenfone 6.

[Android Apps and Games] scoobyjenkins:
This is a known issue with microG currently, the root version casts just like the official YouTube.
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
Remember that Vanced doesn't block ads while streaming, blocking ads is only working on the device.

For streaming functionality at all you can use an older build of YT Vanced, the last without that streaming issue is 16.02.35 (see attached screenshot) for non root users.

Works as good as the latest version. You'll find older builds on the official Vanced website:

Vanced

The official website of Vanced - a Video client for Android (Not affiliated with Google/YouTube).

vancedapp.com

If you can't find that special build there, grab it on APK Mirror:

YouTube Vanced 16.02.35 APK Download by Team Vanced - APKMirror

YouTube Vanced 16.02.35 APK Download by Team Vanced - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads

www.apkmirror.com

You need to install it with SAI (Split APKs Installer, can be found on playstore) as it's a bundle.
[Android Apps and Games] porotikos:
thank you for the above vanced apk. installed perfectly. unfortunately i cannot login innit but it is a workaround until a proper vanced version is available via vanced manager or a magisk module again. cheers
[Android Apps and Games] Ralmada:
So instead of downgrade YT Vanced, is there some old microG version that provide same result?
[Android Apps and Games] subhani:
Just in case others are looking for this as I was going nuts doing the same, I uninstalled the non root version of the Vanced app and installed the root version...and now all Youtube links I click on, open in the Vanced app by default again!

I am on a Xiaomi Mix 4 running an Android 12 version of MUI 12. EVERY other 'fix' failed until now!
[Android Apps and Games] kewlzter:
Hello peoples, is anyone else getting erroneous autocorrect inserts when typing in comments?

I've switched keyboards (Swiftkey, Google, etc) yet still in V-YouTube my auto correct inserts unnecessary replacements. For example if I type "to" it replaces it with "do", or "cats" with "cars".

This doesn't happen with other apps. So I initially thought it was a compatibility issue with my preferred keyboard (Swiftkey), but after switching to Google, I'm still experiencing this.

So it must be V-YouTube.

@DiamondJohn's TeMeFi app with level 3 detach for YouTube worked like a charm for me. Restarts or auto-update, nothing bricks Vanced YT now. Thanks for that.

@porotikos I used the same module, and YouTube reattaches itself regularly. I even used that module's crond method of re-detaching YouTube every 2 minutes all the time in the background, and even that didn't worked upon Nord 2 phone restart (but kept working on my OP6T). @DiamondJohn's app works really well. It was also trivial to find by simply clicking on his username and having a look at some of his comments.

Are there any plans to implement the ability to switch back to the old way uploads from subscribed channels were displayed in the notifications tab? Currently it merges them together if there have been multiple videos uploaded by the same channel in a row, and tapping on the combined notification opens a playlist with all the videos in that merged set.

I can do that only on the desktop version of YouTube or on PC. I do not see any option available on an mobile YouTube website or Android app ( Vance or YouTube studio ). so how do I go about getting this done. right now I am stuck with using desktop versions of browsers and forcing YouTube account to open only on browser and it's extremely messy .....the part for editing
