Rather, it should be to disable the original YT if you don't want to remove it..

Don't allow it to auto update.
[Android Apps and Games] txx3:
stop stop stop stop

i am surprised too, about the nonsense answer u gave here, acting smart and giving a stupid answer grinds my gears...really.

Did google make the app background white or black? ...white ..they changed something google made.

Did google add swipe gesture for volume?

No they added it ...

Does google have its ad blocked in the original youtube app? ...nope

Does google give u the option of changing the minimized video? ...guess what ..nope

so apparently they can tweak things google makes!

how much they can tweak ...its up there coding skills, which i don't know ...that why i asked.

I've uninstalled it, reinstalled Vanced and MicroG, rebooted but still not being able to log in or enter an account inside app.

I started to inform myself how MicroG app and project works and landed on their website, microg.org and, particularly, on their Service Core (GmsCore) explanation on GitHub. There it is written that one of the system requirements of this component is that ROM should support signature spoofing. I checked my system with an app mentioned there, Signature Spoofing Checker, and the result was that Signature Spoofing is Disabled on my system. Since my ROM doesn't support signature spoofing and neither enabling it (since I don't have root and/or xposed), maybe this is the reason why Youtube Vanced isn't able to log-in into my Google account.

It would be nice if non-custom ROM Youtube Vanced non-root users (like those with stock Samsung, Huawei, Sony, LG etc. phones) could post here if their Vanced Youtube is able to log-in into their Google account.
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
MicroG & Vanced are working properly on my Stock Unrooted Samsung Galaxy S8+ and S9+ Signature Spoofing isn't supported on these devices & o/s due to security concerns.

I had no difficulties in signing into my Google account.

You must have some other issue with your Google account & MicroG... It's 4 am here so I can't really give you any other recommendations other than to try it again... From the beginning... ?
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
I had applied the non root versions previously to my Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 running stock, unrooted and had no problems signing in.

Just a long shot - check the play store settings to not to auto update apps, or b at least that the original YT app is barred and disabled.
[Android Apps and Games] cris2d2:
I always keep my Play Store auto-update setting disabled. I have uninstalled stock Youtube app, reinstalled Vanced Youtube, microG, rebooted and the result is the same: touching Add account and + sign has no effect, nothing happens.

Is someone here with Meizu Flyme OS phone that is using non-root Youtube Vanced and is able to log-in into Google account in the app? I suspect Flyme OS the culprit behind log-in bug but second opinion is always welcomed.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Edit..

Original reply deleted - I misread .

Original YT can't be "uninstalled" unless rooted, only disabled.

Maybe check the settings of the original YT in play store.

A second opinion from Flyme users would be good.
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
On Stock Unrooted Samsung Galaxy Devices you can't uninstall the stock YouTube app & it shouldn't be a conflict anyway - I've got BOTH the stock YouTube & Vanced running fine.... But it may well be that your issue lies with the Flyme o/s ?
[Android Apps and Games] cris2d2:
Well, maybe you can, since I can do it on my Meizu unrooted phone, with the help of a few ADB commands. Only with this method I was able to uninstall some unwanted apps.
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
Well if you're referring to this:

https://www-xda--developers-com.cdn...ll-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/

Then yes you can (At Your Own Risk) - However it's unnecessary on Stock Unrooted Samsung Devices at least since there isn't any Signature Conflicts between the stock YouTube app & Vanced.

I'm not familiar with your device or the o/s that you're running - I believe that it's only necessary to use Signature Spoofing on some Custom Roms...? ?
[Android Apps and Games] cris2d2:
Yep, that's the one.

As far as I know, Flyme is a customed ROM by Meizu (like MIUI for Xiaomi or EMUI for Huawei). How deep and how much things are modded and/or removed, only they know.

Right now I'm testing all the releases of Youtube Vanced for non-rooted phones, with both MicroG apks posted there, but with no luck so far...
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
Yeah I don't think that you need to bother testing the different versions of Vanced - As you've said that your issue is signing into your Google account & not with Vanced...?
[Android Apps and Games] cris2d2:
Victory!!!

Since I was a user of another customized stock ROM (MIUI), I remembered that sometimes apps aren't getting automatically (or asking) all the needed permissions. So, I set all Youtube Vanced and MicroG apps permissions to Allowed. After this, I was able to log in - a familiar blue Google log in page appeared after I touched Add account, I entered my credentials and the Vanced Youtube app logged in successfully :)

So, if anyone is having trouble logging in on a non-rooted phone, manually allowing all the permissions for these two apps may be the solution.

[MENTION=1591084]cris2d2[/MENTION]

Well done!
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Good work. I wanted to comment on your post about looking up and finding the microG site. microG for Vanced is a modified one. It is made specifically for Vanced YT. The non root version of Vanced has a different package name (to allow it to installed alongside regular YT). So it needs modified play services (Vanced microG) for it to be recognized.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Yup . Commendable cuz he's one of the rare few who does research AND updates and be shares his findings.

[MENTION=1591084]cris2d2[/MENTION] - Salute!
[Android Apps and Games] cris2d2:
Thanks, also for explaining the difference between the two packages of microG.

As far as I know, rooted Vanced installs in a subfolder in /system and non-rooted Vanced in a subfolder in /data. In fact, rooted Vanced Youtube replaces the stock Youtube app, in the same folder and with app name youtube.apk and non-rooted has a file name of base.apk in /data (if I'm not mistaken).

Just to be clear, I've installed latest Vanced YT 13.28.54 White/Dark and MicroG Vanced 0.2.4-105.
[Android Apps and Games] AlvinAlsace:
Hey guys just started using this. I'm rooted so i flash installed Vanced but somehow i can't download videos to watch them offline. The download option is clearly there but after clicking it the start dialog shows but nothing ever downloads. I already tried clearing data and manually giving permissions but nothing

The black theme also seems to refresh back to white when i close and re open the app

Pages also only load in the first try but seems to load to try to refresh to infinity when i restart the app, I'm only met with the loading animation and white screens tho my internet connection is okay. HELP PLEASE

[Android Apps and Games] TheExoduser:
Hey there guys,

i've installed the new Magisk version of YT Vanced. But since the update I'm not able to use the youtube app anymore (does not appear in app list or app drawer anymore).

I'm currently using Magisk 16.7 (Oneplus 6). Also a complete reinstallation of the phone also did not work, so I'm suspecting something else is causing the trouble.

Anybody else who also got that problem? The previous version worked like a charm.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
Maybe it's disabled? You might want to check and make sure it's enabled in your app manager.
[Android Apps and Games] TheExoduser:
Like I said it does not even appear in the app list. Just like it had been completely uninstalled. So unfortunately I cannot activate it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
Oh, I missed that part. When I install vanced I always just unzip the module and copy the apk and libs directly to the system. I just think it's a little more convenient to stay updated through magisk rather than going to the website. Have you tried installing it to the system (not systemlessly) or with the root method?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Did you disable or "debloat" the original YT with magisk debloater module or anything? Because doing that can cause that problem as well.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
It's simply not possible.
[Android Apps and Games] SUPERUSER:
Thanks! Updated via Magisk and everything works great. :laugh:

No weird issues here. App is visible in app drawer, no force closes on lineage os nougat.

Edit:

FINALLY, FINALLY!!! Finally there is a checklist tick mark on the "add to playlist" dialogue and blue marked button so that I know if the video is already added to the playlist! :D :laugh: :victory:

I seem to be having an odd problem here, maybe someone can help me out, after updating the root version of vanced I have lost the ability to control the volume on YouTube, the volume slider goes up and down but have no effect, I also tried using the experimental sliding controls and the same result. Anyone have any ideas?

Edit: Ended up deleting YouTube folder from /system/system/app in TWRP, and reinstalled using magisk this time. All is working again, not sure what happened or why I had no volume control but it was killing me since volume was stuck on what seemed like 100%
[Android Apps and Games] Shoubyy:

Hi there

I uninstalled all YouTube updates then installed Vanced using Magisk, working ok... But after sometime the original YouTube is reinstated .. and I have disabled auto update for any apps in the play store...

Uninstalling update then Vanced is working again but.. how do I keep it non updated?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
Since you have Root - You could use Titanium to Freeze it - Another alternative would be to use Root Explorer and navigate to System/app & Data/data and delete the app permanently from there - Make sure to Nandroid before you make these changes ?

i am spreading nothing! i am asking a question! get that in your mind.

and i get the rude answer back. Check your manners!!

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Did you install it from the magisk repo? (Download section in magisk manager). If you did, there are instructions in the Vanced listing in magisk manager for "detach from playstore". There are also instructions in the first couple of posts in this thread if you used the Vanced installer zip.

But first, check the playstore listing for YT and see if auto update is still disabled for it.
[Android Apps and Games] aerozolic:
Not sure if it's asked before but would it be possible for you to implement a bottom padding option for swipe controls aswell? Currently it's not possible to swipe the video suggestions that are under video upward because it triggers swipe controls.

And as always thanks to the devs for YT Vanced!
[Android Apps and Games] vertedintro:
It has been mentioned multiple times that PiP is broken in MIUI, if you took the time you did to post this, you would have found your answer.
[Android Apps and Games] Rexee:
I was having the same issues earlier even enabling Signature spoofing didn't work, but i figured out why and how to get it working without root just simply uninstall both Youtube Vacced and MicroG then reinstall youtube Vacced make sure to allow running in background on the installation screen then install MicroG and MAKE sure to allow running in the background as well, if you don't it won't work. Then go ahead and start youtube and see if it logs in. The issue is MicroG isn't running in the background which for some reason causes youtube not to let you login.

Good luck.

sign in error - rooted version

4.4.4, rooted Samsung A5

THX for the work done here !!!

First I tried non root version and MicroG ... worked like a charme. I uninstalled and tried the latest rooted Version. YoutubeVanced_13.28.54-1328542300_API17(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)(vBlack-v1.2.0)

As I have stock recovery (I use flashfire) I manualy copied the renamed YouTube.apk to /system/app and made its rights 644.

Later on I even extracted the lib folder to /system/YouTube/ (755) with no success either ...

When trying to sign in it gives me "Sign in not possible, prob with communication to G servers, try later"

EDIT: It was on me... I had forgotten that xprivacy also does my default settings on system apps
[Android Apps and Games] Smantanasiceapa:
Idk, maybe, but I'm glad I'm on Oreo version.
[Android Apps and Games] gggg:
On 4.4.4 the youtube-apk is in /system/apk/ ... Can sombody pls tell me if the lib folder must be put as /system/apk/lib or /system/apk/YouTube/lib
[Android Apps and Games] rippledrums:
This is my folder structure for Vanced on Android 8.0 64-bit.

Libs must be put inside a folder named after the architecture of your OS.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Look in your system folders for other lib folders. Follow those ones.
[Android Apps and Games] gggg:
THX, but if I put the apk in the Youtube subfolder YT is gone ... so it is different on 4.4.4.

---------- Post added at 14:15 ---------- Previous post was at 14:09 ----------

Good idea ;) but I found a lib folder direct under /system/lib/ but the names dont correspond to the apk names under /syystem/app

and there are folders under /data/... named like com.google.android.youtube which holds a symbolic link named lib to /data/app-lib/com.google.android.youtube

.. but how could I test it works ?

.. is the only feature the lib folder brings "3D videos" (because I renamed my lib folder and they still seem to work) ?
[Android Apps and Games] rippledrums:
Yeah I tried a few Google searches for the 4.4 folder structure but couldn't find anything so I decided to show you mine but things have changed a bit.

Sorry I couldn't help more. :)

Wouldn't it be easier to just flash a custom recovery and flash the installer?
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
That folder in /data/ could be an official update from the playstore and you can delete that since it's not necessary for the root version of this app.

I seem to remember 4.4 being set up like this:

/system/app/YouTube/YouTube.apk

/system/app/YouTube/lib/arm/*.so
[Android Apps and Games] gggg:
I have stock recovery (so this wont work I guess). I use the flashfire app which installs the zip but without placing the apk anywhere ... this is why i went "manual" ;--)

---------- Post added at 15:09 ---------- Previous post was at 15:06 ----------

THX, but if I put the apk like you suggested YT is gone :(
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
If I remember, in KitKat, the APK isn't in it's own folder. Just listed in system/app. But I don't remember where the libs are. Not in /data though. If it works without extracting the libs,...
[Android Apps and Games] gggg:
give me an idea how I can test if the lib files work ... and I will try to put them in /system/lib

For as long as I can remember I've been using black/dark themes on my device.

I've decided to go light for a change and noticed I can't get YT Vance'd to go white. I've de-selected dark theme from within the app. I've tried applying overlays that are light themed for YouTube. No luck. It's not a big deal but am I missing something? I'm systemless root via Magisk's and using the YouTube module that's in the default repository.

Is YouTube Vanced not company with Magisk 16.7? Clean install of ROM, installed YouTube Vanced directly from Magisk, successful. No errors. But no app. Checked in /root/system/app, YouTube folder and app are there. Module is also appearing in Magisk.

[Android Apps and Games] Soetaertie:
Had the same issue. After installing it (using Magisk 16.7) and rebooting, the app drawer did not list YouTube. The problem was that the app was still disabled and I had to re-enable it. Finally, I only had to restart Nova Launcher to make it appear in the app drawer.

How do I detach YouTube from the Play Store if I installed it with Magisk?
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
One thing I didn't think about before is that Google removed the developer theme key from the developer preferences but they still kept that in the code. Well as they removed it, I thought I would remove it as well.

Well this causes the issue where you can't remove that key anymore with the toggles. The only way around that for now is to remove all app data (basically reset your youtube to brand new, all settings, offline downloads will be gone) and after that the theme toggles will work as supposed to.
