From a senior member no less.

Ok, tap the search icon at the top of the thread. Type "history not working". As well as in the first few posts faq

Q. Is history working ?

A. Yes! Make sure you whitelist *s.youtube.com in your adblocker. And non-root users need to check that they are not using a brand account due to MicroG bug. If you are, you need to merge the accounts to get the history working (YouTube Settings) Merging process will clean the current history.

So you're reporting something that is actually in the FAQ section. Nice

Version 13.17.55 works for me.

ZenFone 2 ZE551ML running latest LineageOS 14.1
[Android Apps and Games] mrsubway:
I cleared my cache yes, but I've never had that issue. Magisk rooted version.
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
It consumes 100MB system space. Along with 267MB of cache, it becomes more than 350MB sometimes.
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
Man , cool down. I know what's cache and what's not. Look at the attached screenshot.
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
I installed it via Magisk as well. Do you have any idea why it consumes so much?
[Android Apps and Games] xanthrax:
There might be a problem with your os, it should show up the app version but it doesn't on you.

Try to use a different app to track the usage

New phones are expensive here in Canada. Don't have the cash. But do you think Lollipop will stop being supported anytime soon?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Depends on "G" really. But not likely. There is a point that G has stated any new phones being released will have to have treble support, so Oreo. But apps (like YT) should continue to support older Android versions for some time. So this mod should too. Lollipop was the beginning of ART so that will likely be the minimum for a while.
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
I use the vanilla Marshmallow OS. So the app version is showed in the app overview.

BTW, I tried the app you suggested. It doesn't seem to show anything useful to determine the problem, don't you think?
[Android Apps and Games] PedroCaseiro:
It's the module in the first post
[Android Apps and Games] :
I have installed it by putting the plz archives in /sdcard/Download, but before i've uninstalled all youtube apks in my device and disabled autoupdates. When i reboot to system when i have finished flashing in TWRP, any app is in my system so i don't know what am i doing wrong.

I've also tried to install it throgh magisk but with the same result

My device is a MI A1 oreo 8.0.0 with magisk root

Can anyone help me thx!!
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
I completely removed the pre-installed YouTube app from the /system partition via terminal. Actually I don't care about SafetyNet. And after I downloaded the app via Play Store, it was put in /data/app path, which is expected. So there's no way for the update to increase the size as the new version always overwrites the current app in the data/app.

However, this YT Vanced seems to install itself in the /system by default. So I once again uninstalled the previous YT app in /data/app and installed this module via Magisk.

Result: Space consumption in /data=2MB, /system=100MB :(

Any kind of further help would be appreciated.

Problem solved

I just had Yotube app disabled so i enabled it and now it works xd
[Android Apps and Games] Half Alive:
The same problem.. I have whyred..

It triggers pip while switching to some apps through the notification shade.. Going to Twitter for example.

Last thing I used to activate it is...

[Edited]

You can try this workaround until it get fixed.

1.Install fingerprint quick action

2.And activate 1 tap on fp = none

Then while watching a video..

3. Tap the fp and it'll activate pip mode.

this won't work if you try it after enlarging the pip video.

will work back if you went to recent and back to the app or went to home and back again.
[Android Apps and Games] Bajanman:
Question since you're still going on about this. Is it affecting your phone in anyway that you can't use your device? Can you use the app for whatever you need it for? Then just enjoy what these wonderful devs here give you for free!

Btw mine is 3x as big as yours and I never worry about it tbh.
[Android Apps and Games] Void_Dragon07:
Can someone help me i want to update to the latest youtube update but whenever i do it disables the vanced YouTube mod
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You can't update in the playstore. This "mod" is the complete app, it doesn't mod your current YT, it replaces it completely. So if you update in the playstore, you overwrite Vanced with regular YT. Understand? You must wait until Vanced is updated.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 PM ----------

If you use the root version, yes it is a system app. YT saves a ton of data as you use it. I also have magisk version installed and don't seem to have that much storage used. Or system space. You can always use the non root version and microG if you want it in the /data partition.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
[MENTION=7269045]theintel[/MENTION]

Even if you install it in /system, there are no updates to take up space. Each new update is installed in /system, overwriting the previous.
[Android Apps and Games] Lasius_N:
I tried to flash it several times and it didn't work. Got tired of it and installed the default app back. Finally decided to try to install it over the the default app and what do you know - it worked.

Thanks anyway Kevin.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
So you had YT disabled? Yeah, that's why it wasn't showing up.
[Android Apps and Games] mdiaz33685:
I tried searching and uninstalling the original YouTube app, and putting it back, after a day or so vanced YouTube only works when minimized. I have tried for over 2 weeks. When I uninstall vanced yt then reinstall it works for a day or 2, or even a few hours and stops and will not work, I tried changing settings.

Android TV box

Marshmallow 6

Not rooted

Works fine on my Note 8, not rooted.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Gotta be something with the box. Say what you want, it is a different type of build of Android.
[Android Apps and Games] mdiaz33685:
I agree, it's not rooted, but if I install SuperSU it gets rooted with no custom recovery, but I have it unrooted anyway.

Thanks for the heads up.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
I've seen others that use it on TV boxes. You can use the root version without twrp if it's rooted. You'd have to place it manually with a file explorer. In system/app, and set correct permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
It is truly amazing to see how many "user errors" are being reported in this thread. The OP really is helpful, well-written and provides answers to 98.2% of the issues being repeatedly discussed. Devs, thank you for the time you put into creating both this mod and the OP.
[Android Apps and Games] :
How can be uninstalled? What are the files i need to uninstall it and in which folder must be?

[Android Apps and Games] shadowstep:
How did you end up with the magical figure of 98.2%? :p Just curious, sorry for the OT. But jokes apart, I agree with you. I've been using this mod since it's inception and have never faced even a single issue. :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] albertoajuria:
Please, add mictophone permision to do streamings through the yt vanced app [emoji120], when I try to record or stream through your app, it returns a mic asking permission message but it is not present in app settings.

[Android Apps and Games] flitzz:
Is this app has options "swipe to seek", "swipe to change Volume" and "swipe to control Brightness" like in OgYoutube? Is it possible to be added in future versions if this "swipe controls" feature is not included?
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
There are only two of such changes. Yeah, it's f***ing horrible to looks at that splash screen which is there for 1? second. I've explained why it's like that a few times in different places (here, Discord, Telegram), so if you want to know, do a search.

We are not going to build double the APKs because you don't like the icon. Change it yourself if it's such a big deal to you (that's how others have done, even made quite some cool alternative icons).

But I'm glad these are your biggest issues since they are pretty minor.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Sorry, the number is actually 98.73%. :laugh:

Does the app work as it should? If so, don't worry about trivial cosmetics and be thankful for the amount of time others have put into creating this mod for FREE. :eek:

Just do a search on "swipe" in this thread and the answer will appear. :)
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
But it's already there, and for a reason. So yeah it would be a matter of making twice the amount of apk's. And you really can change it yourself. There are guides and tools available. Sometimes, something like wanting to change a small aspect of an app, has led to people creating their own mods. Once you learn to do something like that, it's hard not to want to go with it, and even share it.

That's how mods like this one come into being.

So my advice, check into changing the splash screen of an app. Then see if you can apply it. You never know where it can lead you.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

So by "skinned" and enough to call the mod ugly, you mean simply the icon and splash? One of which can be changed with a launcher and no coding skill at all?

The internals of the app itself remain as the original.

Just seems a bit ... Petty.

And, I think, all versions have a darker theme in the layout settings. So saying the splash contrasts the white is, again, petty.

The most common request is a darker theme so I don't think that many people choose to leave it white. I know some do, before I get snapped at.

Just my .02

Force closes on latest 13.16.55 on opening

Tried magisk and root method Both not working

Using Aex 5.5 and mini gapps

Normal YouTube works tho
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Even though I mostly am pissed about the fact that people don't search before asking (login problem and download feature being the most common ones). This time I actually said it with the intention of telling you that I've posted the reason somewhere in the thread and you can find it by searching if you want to know, not to complain about not searching. I don't like I had to make it dark for both either but it's just the way it has to be for now, hopefully not anymore when Google finishes the theme (and I was actually supposed to try one thing that could resolve this issue but I haven't had time to test it).

It isn't really since I've coded the patcher to do it automatically, it's just a copy paste of resources. And it does double the APKs if we have to build one with normal logo and one with custom (custom isn't going away). There were some examples of making a toggle inside the app that would change the logo but it was said that it won't work for all android versions so I don't feel like adding it.
[Android Apps and Games] sanctitude888:
I could find neither chromecast setting nor cast symbol/toggle. I can mirror the display for sure but that's too power consuming for the phone. Someone please point me towards the right direction.
[Android Apps and Games] theintel:
Its clear why yours is 3 times bigger than mine. You've saved videos offline and you have a ton caches. Otherwise, the main app is 91MB for you.

BTW, I'm just a little intrigued when apps consume space for no reason.

[Android Apps and Games] JP_93:
Thanks so much for this app it works perfectly! Any chance it could be supported in Samsung video enhancer like snaptube?
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Here is a picture of why:

[IMG="youtube size"]https://i.gyazo.com/b0230be2d56e92d160c5d8c53df19ff2.png[/IMG]

So basically the APK as is, the libraries your phone use extracted outside of the APK and the OAT file that is created due to optimizations.

You have to use a video enhancer compatible package name, I posted a list of those a while back in this very thread. Basically you can change this apps package name to youtube kids and it will show up in the video enhancer list. We don't do it because someone might be using the youtube kids app and hence this wouldn't be compatible, so you have to do it yourself.

Good news. The last official YouTube release 13.18.54 solves the watch later playlist bug when loading more than 20 videos in the list was not possible.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
It was fixed in the 13.17.55 actually, can't recall if 13.17.53 worked but might have been in that one already.

Does anyone know if I can use flashfire because every time I try to flash it it never installs galaxy s7 edge
[Android Apps and Games] bradical711:
Yes you can. I used flashfire to install it on my s8. It doesn't really matter what you use to flash it. Just be aware that that you have to set your date back manually on your phone to anytime before April to have flashfire open and work. And whatever you do, don't enable pro because then flashfire will crash consistently and you'll have to delete the app and redownload it from the play store. Also, if it doesn't open the first time and ask for root, make sure you have your date set back and that it's in airplane mode. If that still doesn't work to open it and ask for root, then reboot your phone and try the steps again and it should work and if it still doesn't open, a second reboot for sure get it to open lol. Flashfire is super picky sometimes but it'll work eventually.
[Android Apps and Games] serg2018:
lol yeah i found that i had to do all that but when i flash the file it YouTube doesn't show up and i tried every file still no luck
[Android Apps and Games] ipdev:
This is leading OT but....

FlashFire works if you've purchased Pro.

No need to change the date.

If you are using Magisk for root. Read the ff thread. FlashFire

Magisk v14.2 seems to be the average that works with ff depending on device.

[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
My friend you can not possibly believe this. As someone who has shared projects on xda that had taken me months to complete, I can assure you that I am not trying to bolster my resume.

Admittedly, my projects are for a Samsung note 4 that is quickly becoming an antique and if verizon didn't use CDMA I would be able to use roms and kernels from real developers, but everybody else moved on (my device didn't have method to unlock the bootloader until 2 years after the release date) and since I was building these things for myself anyway I decided to share these projects. I'm not a developer though, I'm never going to be a developer, I'm certainly never going to make any money developing, I'm just another android junkie that likes to mess with my phone.

I'm sure some of the stuff here on this site looks good on a resume but I think that's more of a by product. I actually enjoy looking through lines of code to try and add features or change cosmetics or through logcats trying to find that elusive answer. It truly is a hobby for me.

I have a GED and wait tables at restaurant for christ sake and so far every single developer/contributor on this site that I've sought advice from works a job unrelated to programming or coding. So, while I don't really like to toss around the "it's free so deal with it" card the amount of work that a person can put into some projects are lost on most people and unfortunately I think a lot xda members share your view point.

I think you should try looking at this from a different perspective and just appreciate all that we have here on this site. Think of the amount of time that some of the more experienced people have put into creating guides just so a person like me can learn to do something that I never thought I could. Is a xda a business? Certainly, but it's also a community of people willing to help each other out simply because they enjoy it.

Hi!

Im using the latest 13.18.54 version, but it changed name from YouTube to Ok. Is that normal?

Thanks for great work!
[Android Apps and Games] lekiaM:
That means that the version is 'Ok' ??
[Android Apps and Games] sanctitude888:
It's already been activated by default, I'm casting to mibox, so do I have to install Vanced on mibox as well cause I don't see cast logo/icon on Vance unlike on Youtube. Sorry if this sounds stupid ?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
No you only need Vanced on the phone. The casting button should be there if enabled in layout. It's there on mine. Not sure why you don't see it.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
Forgot to mention that the package name you choose must have the word "youtube" in it. Did you have it?

And if you did, which MicroG do you have? Might as well try the one in the website labeled as "New".
[Android Apps and Games] JP_93:
Ohhh I guess that's the problem then. I changed the package name to 'com.kidstv.app'. I will change it to another with YouTube in.

And I have MicroG 0.2.4-105, I will also try a newer one.

Edit: Thanks again! Changing the package name to the YouTube kids one fixed it completely! :D

You can also extract the lib folder from the root app version, then just move that and the .apk to syayem/app/YouTube and set correct permissions.

Reboot. Profit.

[Android Apps and Games] MeExilex3:
Yes. Yes it is its in the layout settings within the Vanced settings.

Hmmm am I missing something? Cause I checked the latest APK version number on the mediafire link against my current app version and it's the same.

This is proven when I downloaded and installed it anyway, I don't have the theme option.

[Android Apps and Games] johnholley123:
Disregard my previous post, I misunderstood the new naming scheme. If you want the black theme, download the black apk. If you want the new stock dark theme, download the dark apk. Either way, to enable the theme you have to go to Settings > Vanced Settings > Layout Settings.

He was asking where version 13.x was (or a newer version than he had) because his current version didn't have the theme option in settings like 13.x does.
