Stuck at the Connect to Internet screen

Alright so, after doing a system optimization on my non-rooted Samsung S8, I was shown the Connect to Internet screen on the previous version of vanced, I am unaware of what build it is, but I did not need to use a SAI to install it, I installed it from the YSK reddit and am not able to link it due to this being a new account. After getting some help I reinstalled the latest version from the Vanced.app website. I used the process it told me and followed it multiple times but was still stuck at the Connect To Internet screen.

I tried to install a previous version- 14.21.54 blue vanced and the microG-0.2.6.174.

I installed these files from the My Files app under APK and once installed I was met with the 'Vanced.app is the only offical site...' pop up, clicking dismiss or later leads to the same outcome of when trying to sign in.

A pop up that says-

Accounts +

Please check your network...

tap to retry

shows up when trying to sign in, and if I click the plus button and use my email, it says that email is already on this device. Using a fresh email leads to the Connect to Internet screen. Pressing Tap to Retry has a small loading symbol then the same pop up appear.

I tried using the Airplane mode, dismiss, airplane mode off tactic on all three builds but it did nothing. My accounts are not banned and I can use normal youtube, but that sucks and I really hate ads. I am up for anything but rooting my device to fix this problem I found myself in. I am new here and am typing this up o my phone so I am sorry for the crap formatting.

I have the same Problem on my Note 8 exynos... please help

Update: I removed youtube vanced and microG from settings-app manager and then reinstalled the newest versions from the vanced website and it worked. I think this happened bc I changed my google Password recently...

Good luck

I found a version that doesn't require SAI to install. Works fine.
[Android Apps and Games] Revontheus:
Is there any difference functionally, between the root and non-root version of vanced? This is under the assumption that I have no qualms with disabling APK signature verification.
[Android Apps and Games] AlDollaz:
"Set the app wrongly"

What does that even mean?! The instructions for installing Vanced are quite simple. It works great on one phone, not on the other. If you're only here to berate people and act smugly, it's not appreciated.

And I've been on XDA since 2012, just like you. If you don't have anything useful to contribute, our conversation is done.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
the only differences are the exact installation method, and(due to differences in package name) how other apps/services interact with it.

a small amount of apps can't open YouTube links with the non-root version at all because they're hardcoded to use the "system" YouTube app.

the play store won't try to update the non-root version to the latest original version.

YouTube-specific mods/enhancements don't work with the non-root version.(although many unofficial mods/enhancements won't work with the root version either)

the non-root version isn't recognized by the Google play services, so you need vanced microG to help with that.

If you searched you by now know that Vanced team can't do anything about Google's Server Side updates and if you know that it was already a problem why post it when most people already know it's an issue.

How do I get history to wok on non rooted and what is meant by brand account
[Android Apps and Games] astanoli:
Hi, i am facing the exact same issue, did you find any solution?

It was working fine until i changed my password.

I uninstalled both micro & vanced, rebooted phone. Downloaded fresh non root APKs from vanced.app

Installed microG 1st, then used SAI to install Vanced apk (with SAI installer set to "rootless" mod. Still have the exact same error.

Using Samsung A30, oneui 2.0

Recently i managed to get rid of this message using following steps, but this method is also not working anymore. Give it a shot as it might work for you

1. Uninstall "webwiew updates"

2. Uninstall Chrome updates

3. Clear "cache" & "data" in chrome app settings

4. Disable chrome

5. Clear "cache" & "data" for microG app

6. Clear "cache" & "data" for Vanced app

7. Reboot phone
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
"brand account" means your Google account has multiple YouTube users.

this is quite common in accounts that were made before the switch to Google accounts, the original YouTube account will show up as an extra YouTube user alongside the standard Google account user.
[Android Apps and Games] alagga:
But History does work even on non-root (I'm using it with a brand account).

This was an error some time ago, but I think microg has fixed this.

Huawei Mate XS stuck at "Just a sec" sign in process...

I have been trying every setting on the Huawei Mate XS conceivable to get the YouTube Vanced to work. I did not install any Google Chrome browser as I understand there are some quirks that prevent sign-in to my Youtube user account from working. I am using the Non-root version of YouTube Vanced and the microG (all latest version). The app is running but I just can't get it to sign in. And that is really frustrating to use...otherwise it is truly a gem!

Any kind soul who can drop a hint on how to overcome this sign-in huddle? Thanks very much!

I was still using the latest (now old) version from the Magisk repo, not realizing that Vanced has newer versions. So I upgraded to the most recent version and found myself annoyed with all the "Mix - [recently watched clip here]" entries in my feed.

what is the advantage on rooted version over regular version ?
[Android Apps and Games] Philnicolls89:
Regular version needs micro g in order to login, root version doesn't need micro g. That's about it. They have different package names but nothing inside the app is different as far as I'm aware. I've only used root version though
[Android Apps and Games] TheIntruder:
No need for any app simple ADB command does the trick
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I have actually found that auto updates of other apps do continue, but *possibly* at a delayed pace. NB: I built the above linked app. And would recommend Method 3 for the best protection.

For instructions, see the post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82112215&postcount=291

You have not specified what the exact adb command actually is? And note, we are talking about the root version.There is no need to detach the non-root version.

If you are talking about removing or disabling the app, then your are effectively uninstalling the app:confused:

=========================

Edit: If you have Exposed installed, then sudo hide also works from what I have read here.
[Android Apps and Games] TheIntruder:
I'm running it on two devices the one without root was a pain YouTube kept updating and replacing Vanced

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.youtube
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
So, from your ADB statement, I am guessing that you are uninstalling the update to a root version, after it has already happened.

A working detach method will actually stop the update from happening, and thus remove the"pain". Each time you uninstall an update, you will lose your settings. That is NOT a detach method.

A working detach method will remove the "pain" 100%. What is confusing, is in contradiction to what your are saying, the non-root one will never be updated by the playstore. I have never run the non-root one, but that's exactly one of the reasons that people use it.

Someone else, please chime in.:crying:
[Android Apps and Games] TheIntruder:
I detached it I froze it even begged it and nothing worked, you tube would keep reappearing after doing that it's not returned since even after updating the ROM and if it did, it would be uninstallable.

I'm no expert nor do I profess to be, just sharing what worked 100% for myself
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
But you have not tried sudo hide nor my method. Listen to what other people are telling you. And that is not a 100% solution,especially for others, as it will lose your settings, AND the update actually has occurred, so you have to track it and then do a manual step. It has not worked 100%, its simply that you have caved to what you have accepted as what you have to put up with, but there are better ways. Listen to others, because I'm out :rolleyes:

When Vanced changed things the day after I decided to install it on 2 devices OnePlus 5t no root and a mi 4 tablet rooted via magisk.. Removed YouTube, installed the none root version not seen it since, why would I try other methods..

[MENTION=5417899]DiamondJohn[/MENTION], [MENTION=2639369]TheIntruder[/MENTION]

Just sharing.. I've always been using non root VYT simply because I'm basically lazy.

But as far as I know, the non-root version has a different package name, which, to me means (as a simple user) -

1. Non root VYT will not be affected by GYT.

2. If GYT gets updated, it doesn't affect my experience on non root VYT.

On my rooted devices, I uninstall GYT (and won't install if running Custom ROMs).

On non rooted devices, I disable GYT and by default, I turn off auto updates (also in rooted devices).

I'm much of just sharing user experience and I've read posts from both of you who I hold in high regard.

Relax.. Sometimes we may not see eye to eye (as opposed to those threads that needed mods to clean).

Cheers and stay safe!

Best regards!

For clarification I should have said it in the post

5t running pixel experience (no root) and had a couple of updates since which were dirty flashed

[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:
My stab in the dark is that you signed the apks while installing instead of follow the instructions to disable signature verification.
[Android Apps and Games] tito_puente:
I'm using a Stock Pixel 3a and installed Version "Dark, 15.05.54, Default" via SAI.

I didn't installed Micro G because afaik this is only necessary when there isn't any gapps-package installed.

YouTube Vanced forcecloses every time I try to start it. Or do I really have to install micro-g on my stock non-rooted Pixel 3a?
[Android Apps and Games] TheIntruder:
microG is needed for no root version it has nothing to do with gapps
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Please follow the instructions on www.vanced.app

Yes you need microG in nonroot. There is no condition for microG as in "in case you dont have gapps package".

Difference between nonroot and root vanced is only the package name. Where rooted vanced has original youtube package name (i.e. com.google.android.youtube), the nonroot one has a different package name (i.e. com.vanced.android.youtube). So the difference is only that. And that is why,

- Nonroot vanced can be installed to both rooted and unrooted phone

- Root vanced requires a rooted device

The nonroot Vanced contains a different app package name as written above. This contradicts with google's own requested package name, thus we need a service, by which the Vanced YouTube can be connected to google services. MicroG service was around for some time (what is it and how does it work you can find here). So, by using a custom microG service (Vanced microG), it is possible to grant access a different package name as com.vanced.android.youtube to your original Google (and thereby, original YouTube) account. The installation of microG requires it to be installed before vanced apk. The reason is, vanced apk will seek for access for google services once installed. If it is rejected, app will fail.

Please do NOT install microG AFTER nonroot Vanced YouTube. If you have already installed nonroot Vanced YouTube, uninstall it, then install microG and after that, nonroot Vanced YouTube.
