I've got the conection issue as well.it says that it can't connect.

Latest non root version with the according MicroG and already logged in.
[Android Apps and Games] jacktiew:
Hi dev, could you please add the Microg to app drawer? Cause in ColorOS, you need to launch the apps and go to recent tab to put a lock on the app to avoid the app being cleared from the memory or 'freeze in background'. That's the only way to disable power optimization.
[Android Apps and Games] lvpre:
Clear cache and then data in YouTube vanced under settings. Go to settings > accounts and remove the microg Google account. Open YT vanced, sign back into accounts. I had the same issue and this fixed it for me
[Android Apps and Games] gabi11:
Really great app!

Thanks a lot!

Just got to know it recently after stopped using Ymusic...

A question - is there a faster way of moving to "audio only mode" (not by locking the screen, I want to switch to navigation app while driving).

Currently I'm minimizing vanced, pressing the pip screen to make the headphones icon visible and then pressing on the headphones icon ( have to repeat it each time I open vanced or want to skip a song if not from playlist..)

Is there a faster way?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Turn off pip in settings and it will just play in the background once you exit the app without minimizing to the pip window
[Android Apps and Games] gabi11:
Thanks mate!

You meant in app info right? Settings/permissions for pip...

I mean not some kind of internal settings in YouTube vanced...
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Yup that's the one :good:
[Android Apps and Games] palmbeach05:
Yes, its settings>apps>youtube>advanced settings>pip
[Android Apps and Games] gabi11:
Thanks guys!

Works great!

I already searched the thread but just want to be sure, there isn't a way to control the audio quality, right?
[Android Apps and Games] Predyeth:
I can't figure out what that grey bar is called that advertises with text over the videos and how to disable it.

Can someone please help me with either?

Hi,

LG V20 (H910) Nougat 7.0 Rooted

I just installed the latest YouTube Vanced Black Themed v14.21.54 (b01.40.20) using…..

Magisk v19.3

Magisk Manager v7.3.2 (224)

After Install/Reboot, it does show up in Magisk as installed, but there is no icon for it on my Home Screen, nor in my App Drawer.

The regular YouTube is still on my phone, but FYI is NOT installed as a System App. I uninstalled it completely a long time ago and reinstalled it as a User App ONLY.

I wanted to make sure I would keep the Vanced version before uninstalling it, since I don't see ads in the normal YT anyway (blocked via an Xposed Mod) and I can't use the Vanced PIP, since I'm running Nougat. But Vanced still has other cool features worth checking out.

I didn't see that it is in the OP, but is uninstalling the regular YouTube first required? All I saw there is about uninstalling any updates.

Is there something else I need to do? I installed it correctly per normal Magisk procedure and didn't read any special procedure in the OP, but am I missing something?

Thanks!

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] battler624:
Idk why but only with Vanced do I get the audio jumping to 13 (out of 15) and only on my phone (so far), I'll test Vanced on my car tomorrow.

I was on 14.10 and updated to latest because of this problem but it still exists on latest.
[Android Apps and Games] CarbonGTR:
Uninstall the original Youtube app updates from settings. The module would've made the OG apk a system app.
[Android Apps and Games] helyblackstorm:
I uninstall all YouTube updates and disable auto-update in the playstore and installed the root version through TWRP. When the phone restarts youtube vanced appears and works normally in place of youtube.

The problem is that when I restart the phone again, the youtube vanced icon disappears in home screen and app drawer ... just as it disappears into the settings/aplication.

I restore NAND bkp and after completely removed youtube via Titanium Bkp and flash again youtube vanced by TWRP ... and the problem persists.

I tried to install via magisk module and again the same problem happens.:(

PS: Using non root with microg service method works perfectly.

The cell is A9 Pro 2016 with Oreo.
[Android Apps and Games] Zeuszoos:
Thank you for your response. I ended up completely uninstalling YouTube and just installing YT Vanced via Magisk and it's working fine now.

FYI, I did not need microG. Vanced even installed already signed in. :)

[Android Apps and Games] GrapeBandit:
i feel sorry for all you guys. i have vanced running flawlessly on xiaomi mi 8 android 9, and essential phone android 10, both non-rooted
[Android Apps and Games] tboy2000:
So because I wasnt getting any YTVanced notifications, I tried the fix to install an older Vanced and older MicroG and then update Vanced. Managed to log in but it then says you are not connected to the internet. I tried disabling Chrome but still same problem. Anyone know of a fix please?

Btw I did search but no solutions work.
[Android Apps and Games] GrapeBandit:
to get the notifications to work, you have to go into micro-g settings and make sure yt vanced is registered on google cloud messaging
[Android Apps and Games] tboy2000:
All sorted. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Vikask123:
Sorry for asking. But is the project dropped? Approx time of Next eta?

MOD EDIT: As a mark of respect to the Dev, you are not allowed to ask for ETA.
[Android Apps and Games] bsorli:
Hello, has anyone else noticed screen dimming when playing videos in Landscape. I'm running the last version and tried reinstalling that didn't work. Works just fine in portrait, but then defeats the whole purpose for the app. Thanks for the reply, Sorli
[Android Apps and Games] Flegmon:
No, it hasn't been droped and no, you won't get an ETA. Asking fir ETA is just straight uo disrespectful towards the developers.

Before you ask why no ETA is because of Server end updates by google.

Hi

Is there any option to skip age verification without singning in? I have no gapps, no account, and as this is the best modded app I ever used, this would be the last thing to be perfect for me.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Murmel2k:
Thank you. I found this one. But I was looking for a more classical design (before the Google revamp). Also I really would be interested for an adblocker, which this app does not seem to provide. At least it doesn't mention it in the feature list.
[Android Apps and Games] BeadyBead:
Ahh. Gotcha. Well let me know if you find anything like that.

As far as I know though, this app is closest to YTVanced for Android TV. I use it on my Fire stick and it blocks ads etc, plus some additional little tweaks you can toggle on/off.
[Android Apps and Games] MrYoan:
no connection

Guys, I have a problem with the app. All of a sudden, it stopped connecting to YouTube servers several days ago. Tried reinstalling it completely with the latest version of the app itself, even gapps, no positive results. I am using S9+ stock, no root, no VPN, different DNS servers or whatever, no any kind of internet restrictions. Stock youtube app works fine. Does somebody have similar problem. :( Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Well, no one who wants to help can guess which version you're on and whether it's rooted version or otherwise. (No, I'm not being funny. You'll get better and appropriate response by nailing down the necessary needed info.)

But to answer the last line, yes, I had it previously, but no more.

On older versions, of non root, clear microg account in device settings - account, then log in again.

For the latest .54 non root, uninstall both apks, then reinstall corresponding microg first then the main app.

Now, this may not be the solution to your problem (if you're on non root) but these are the steps I took when I had that problem. Sometimes it may not work (some users encountered that).

For non root, need to ensure corresponding version of microg used with version of VYTB to be installed.

Apologise that I have no speaking rights for rooted or Magisk version as I don't install that.

Hope this post is of some relevance.

Cheers mate!
[Android Apps and Games] palmbeach05:
Why not just use your google account, sign in, and be done with it
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
No gapps though.

My recommendation is to setup a Google account for microg and install the non root and microg apks and sign in with that. Thus keeping somebit of privacy.

Although at the end of the day this is still goolag just a modified version of the original youtube so it's full of trackers and data collection anyway so he may aswel just install gapps
[Android Apps and Games] ii9:
I don't have an account, I know I could even do just a random, and it may sounds nonsense for some, but I try to stay google free as much as possible, have custom rom, without gapps, and I use some other apps sometimes, that play all the videos, what normally asks verification, therefore I thought that must be an easy trick. But these apps are not as fluid and well done, so I'd love to have vanced without this filter, and be able to play any video, that include 3 "stonger" word, etc.

I thought I gave it a try here with my question, thanks anyway for reply.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
But going Google free with YouTube?

Vanced is the original youtube app just modified so it's the very same as having normal YouTube installed as far as privacy and data go.

Stick with newpipe for a gapps-less experience
[Android Apps and Games] Joe333x:
Just want to point out here in case anyone using the root version of the installer has the search folder as "ownload" instead of download so it won't install. Easiest fix is to just put the APK in the installer zip.

[Android Apps and Games] marregazza:
Haha just can't get it. How come app start up logo can be so annoyed? Whenever you launch YouTube, close eyes for 2s, then profit the vids. Easy
[Android Apps and Games] jaymoker:
Hi,

Working fine here :)

Really good work ?

I have a question, do you think it could be possible to get an option to completely hide some youtube channels from the app ?

Just a suggestion of feature.

It would be great because I'm tired to see all this garbage channels and I think I'm not only in this situation.

thank you ?
[Android Apps and Games] shouren04:
Thanks, best version yet!

I must be blind , I enabled both toggles but couldn't see any effect. What exactly should I be looking for?
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
You might need to reboot the app for those two toggle changes to take affect.

Search bar toggle: https://9to5google.com/2018/03/20/youtube-full-width-search-bar-android/

The vertical toggle seems to be this: https://9to5google.com/2018/03/26/youtube-dynamic-video-player-android/

Guess I'll rename it to "Dynamic player" in the next update as it seems much more descriptive than what I came up with :D It has been there for quite a while actually, just never got around to create a toggle for it. But now that I saw there is that new search bar, I added that other toggle too.
[Android Apps and Games] TheMadRuffian:
I installed it through magisk but it showed me an error saying "Google play services required". I'm currently on RR 6.0 without Gapps. Is there any work around to make it work without Google play services?

3- this a small issue in v13.07.55 when enabling both black themes when I tap I can't see my words invisible words

When first time I run the app after installing it, trying PiP mode and then with closed screen, when I try to wake up my phone doesn't respond to any of my commands. Only forced restart can wake-up my device. And as I observed this is only first time after I am installing new version of this app.

Any way to stop the apo from asking for an account if not signed in on magisk version?
[Android Apps and Games] j-a-d-z:
No, it has the search folder as "*ownload*" so it searches not only in "download" but also in "Download", "downloads" or "Downloads". So it is a feature instead of a bug.
[Android Apps and Games] Joe333x:
Okay well for me using TWRP when I flash the installer with the APK in /download I get a message that there is no APK in "ownload" I put the APK in the zip and it worked without a problem
[Android Apps and Games] MrYoan:
I though that mentioning that my phone (Galaxy S9+, Android 9.0) is not rooted should be enough. I'm using gapps 0.2.6.17455, youtube vanced White/Dark 14.21.54 (all latest versions in vanced.app). I tried the steps you mentioned, removing the app and gapps, reinstalling them again in the order you suggested, cleaning data, removing my google account, nothing helps.

I can provide logcat if that would help.

There have been a few reports of similar issues in a few posts before yours.

Deleted Vanced MicroG app data and uninstalled it.

Now back in Vanced app clicking sign in and it's not working off course.

Now installing the Vanced MicroG app (downloaded from MediaFire other not working).

Logging in by adding my account done.

[Android Apps and Games] anuraganasane:
I've no idea about magisk but seems you are rooted then use the root uninstaller to uninstall stock youtube and then install vanced.
[Android Apps and Games] CarbonGTR:
You need'nt do that. The Magisk Module will install the vanced over the original APK.
[Android Apps and Games] anuraganasane:
But he has a different problem. In play store YouTube is saying to update even when magisk has replaced stock youtube.
[Android Apps and Games] warrencoakley:
But mine shows this too. It's because Vance hasn't updated to coincide with the latest YouTube release. They use to do it but not as regularly anymore. I think they will only do it when some new features are released. Just turn auto updates off in playstore or in developer options.
[Android Apps and Games] CarbonGTR:
Yes that happens because Youtube vanced has the same package name as the official app and Playstore thinks its the official app. If you update vanced through playstore, You will get the official app back. But you can back by uninstalling updates through Google Play store.
[Android Apps and Games] lekronop:
I have the same problem on my S10+ but when I uninstall all updates and then install the magisk module, the YT app is only 478kb big and thus of course not working..

After uninstalling the module again, I don't even have YouTube installed as system app anymore.

Does anybody know how to fix this?

Any help is appreciated.

I have an AT&t Galaxy S10 plus before I did anything I disabled the YouTube app that came factory expecting that I was going to have the play store problem but for some reason installing YouTube vanced non root after that it doesn't show up in the play store and the other Samsung YouTube stays disabled in my apps list AT&t must have renamed it I'm guessing I don't know it's nice though
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
If I remember correctly, non root VYTB uses a different package name so you can actually have both GYT and it running alongside.

The root and Magisk versions use the same package name as GYT and with that whenever GYT updates itself (even though it's set to no auto update), VYTB will be affected. Some have successfully detached GYT but others have reported it somehow breaks and GYT got updated. If memory serves me right, uninstalling GYT with VYTB installed results in the app icon not being found.
[Android Apps and Games] mightyblazer:
Yes I think you're right about all that I have another device running the magisk version and I have the same problem as you I could never get it to detach and even with auto update off it still updates it's a pain and it bothers me seeing that it wants updated lol sorry I'm no help I understand
