I couldn't find the link to reddit. Could you share it here, please?
[Android Apps and Games] SUPERUSER:
Didn't know there was one, I don't see any reddit link in op post or the post you linked above.

Nothing on the website either, just a discord link. No reddit link in the app either.

And... isn't this an XDA project? Why spread out the intelligence and community to other websites?

That gets to confusing.

Changelogs have been abandoned and not filled out for a very long time so I have no obligation to know anything about this change if your intention is that this is not a bug but a change by design?

Did you ever figure out how to get 13.34.50 installed? I guess I may try completely deleting the 13.28.54 version first...

I just googled it and it popped up. First link. I think it's over now though
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
It didn't gave me a hit. I searched for 'vanced reddit' and there were only questions or posts about it from r/android and r/androidapps, none that looked official.

Too bad, oh well, I'll just check it out anyway.

I always get this large check button on the Magisk version of vanced, this doesn't appear on the root version but I still want to use the Magisk version. Any way to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] Call Me Wolf:
I updated to 13.34.50 and the app is always signing me out, i uninstalled micro g and youtube, removed google account but it still happens.
[Android Apps and Games] Call Me Wolf:

[Android Apps and Games] E30Nova:
Just installed the update through magisk. I have the latest version now. I kind of regret it because the icon is different, lol.

I liked the old icon better.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
They had a vote for the icon and everything. You know you can change it right?
[Android Apps and Games] E30Nova:
I guess I missed the vote, lol.

I searched the settings for a way to change it but I'm not gonna lie, I skimmed through everything pretty quickly because I had to go to work. I planned on digging through the settings when I had more time. Good to know there's an option somewhere, though!
[Android Apps and Games] HamburgerxDDD:
Im still having these :(, the X button near the maximize button. I tried looking at the settings of vanced but I really can't figure it out
[Android Apps and Games] swamp2:
Vanced with no ads and dark version is so wonderful.

How does one permanently remove the standard Youtube from the Playstore? I did uninstall it and I did uncheck "Enable auto update" but Vanced will still be replaced when you choose Update All. I have searched this thread, reddit and googled around pretty extensively and can not find a solution. I am rooted via Magisk and installed Vanced from Magisk. Thanks in adVANCE.

[Android Apps and Games] Blutdroid:
Hello, I've been having trouble after attempting to update the root version that did work properly.

First, with that version I was able to uninstall updates on the default Youtube app, I followed the instructions, it worked.

This time, flashing the the installer 3.0 via TWRP with the latest apk in the download folder uninstalled the Youtube app. I redownloaded the app from the Play store, but there was no option to uninstall updates, only uninstall the complete app. Fine, so I tried flashing via TWRP, but again the Youtube was uninstalled entirely.

Any idea what's going on and how I can remedy this?
[Android Apps and Games] swamp2:
Thanks, had to show all sections... Read the OP dummy....

But it did not work. I began with neither Vanced nor regular YT installed. I used:

ytva-universal-installer-v3.0.zip

ytva_install_via_magisk.plz

ytva_detach_from_playstore.plz

Youtube_13.34.50-1334502400_API17(arm64-v8a)(nodpi)(vBlack-v2.0.2)-vanced.apk

All placed in /sdcard/Download

And flashed the zip in TWRP. Saw something appear/scroll briefly during install with "detach" or "detached". Vanced was installed and works but Youtube immediately came up in updates in the Playstore.
[Android Apps and Games] Opaze:
Hi, if you want to detach youtube vanced from play store, follow those steps :

1) Disable auto-update from the official youtube app, then remove it.

2) Now install YouTube vanced (I suggest you magisk version)

3) Then use a root explorer like ES explorer to go to the /cache folder. In this folder, create a file and name it "enable_detach"

4) Reboot and wait about 1min.

5) Enjoy

App Version: 13.34.50, Magisk module

OP5, latest stable OOS

No matter which video I play, the moment I press home button (activating background play) or switching between apps, or getting a whatsapp message window popping up, app is crashing.

Log is attached. Did anyone experience something like that?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Yeah not enough people showed to ask the really specific questions. I don't use those weird settings so I didn't ask

[Android Apps and Games] saoudien07:
1- desable auto update before remove official YouTube!!!

2-remove youtube

3- install Vanced you like, rootless (Magisk) or root or non-root

4-Install sudoHide, and set it, for Vanced to dont be seen by Play Store, to dont be bothered by new version notification!

You may use Update All safely;)
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
I didn't care much for the change at first either but after I found out how to work I really like it.

The trick is to long press on the "save" button and will bring up the check list without adding it to anything.
[Android Apps and Games] mrjuniork:
I didnt have any xposed module installed, that could be somehow in conflict with vanced.. But I did solve it though.. I completely removed the app, rebooted, then downgraded to 13.32.52 and then background PB worked flawlessly... So then I updated to the latest 13.34.50 through MM and all is working perfectly now :)

Thank you for your fast response and for having a look at the log, your ongoing help here is truly appreciated :highfive:

Something else: I kept seeing sponsored ads at the very top when I started the app.. Then after adjusting some settings I activated chromecast (layout settings) along with changing the them, so the app force restarted.. After that the sponsored ads were gone... Then I deactivated chromecast, to be sure, and the ads reappeared.. How is that connected?
[Android Apps and Games] SUPERUSER:
Oh that works :)

It don't work on the OSD controll though.

I might be able to live with it once I get used to this

I was on the verge to download an older .apk
[Android Apps and Games] galelouch993:
Crash when trying to get into settings

I get a crash every time I try to click 'settings'. I hadn't this happening in previous versions. I checked the log by myself and it says something about Xposed which I think is not relevant as I have no single mod related to YT (only Xinsta). What could it be?

Log: how do I attach a file? Samsung Browser.
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
It's something new Google introduced a few versions back. It came after the previous Vanced version.
[Android Apps and Games] Sypher_Guitar_Solos:
Hi.

I've installed the latest version through Magisk, even uninstalled the official app, but Play Store still keeps prompting me to update the YouTube app even if the versions match. Is there any way I can detach it after installing?
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Use SudoHide (xposed mod).
[Android Apps and Games] galelouch993:
I get it. Thank you very much for the quick response!
[Android Apps and Games] swamp2:
Thanks much! Finally. Step 3 was the key.

I did see those instructions in Magisk about Vanced, but due to the warnings, about "hacky" and "enable it at your own risk", I had avoided this hoping for a lesy hacky solution.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Looks like your fp sensor is the key.

1- Deleted with root uninstaller youtube system app

2 - flash installer zip with twrp

3 - install apk, get app not installed
[Android Apps and Games] Blutdroid:
I double and triple checked everything while trying to reinstall the rooted version and I keep running into the same error saying no MD5 file was found, skipping MD5 file check, and finishing the process far too quickly with only a final "updating partition details...done." Zip verification also fails when checked.

I am guessing that is at least part of the problem, but I don't understand why it is suddenly not only failing to install, but completely uninstalling the default Youtube app altogether.

Both the installer and correct architecture apk file are in the download folder, the Youtube app has already been downgraded to the factory state, and it fails at that MD5 check every time.

When you have one of the files in your Download folder, it will do whatever it says on page one for that specific file.

You just flash the installer, and it detects them automatically.

[Android Apps and Games] TomiLynch:
If you have magisk, just search for Youtube Vanced on the Downloads tab in Magisk Manager and install it. It includes the detach plz and everything you need.

Just remember to uninstall all stock youtube updates before or uninstall it totally.
[Android Apps and Games] luimx:
I updated and tried the latest root black version, and after some time of use I decided to go back to the previous v12.49.55 by two main reasons:

1. There was a continuous annoying bug where the app's screen became blank (by not showing any videos) after leaving it and opening it again. This happened randomly. I had to close the app completely and open it again to solve the issue.

2. I don't like the white background for live chats.

That bug where the text of messages could not be seen in the black background was fixed on v12.49.55, so I don't think this change was necessary.

I guess it still didn't work to others?

Just as a reference, my current system is Lineage 14.1

Anyways thanks in general to the YouTube Vanced team for your amazing work on this app.

I recommend people not install from the Magisk Downloads section, it ended up wiping out Play Store and F-Droid somehow. I have no idea how or why. Luckily I made a backup just beforehand.

The first third method (flashing the zip from recovery) went smoothly and was also much faster.

[Android Apps and Games] aLexzkter:
The black theme sucks.

New icon looks bad. Youtube at the top left corner is written in dark color, so it can't be read. When commenting, the text is dark so it's not readable either.

Good thing I have Swift black substratum theme and was able to fix all those issues.

I have a question, can I keep the official Youtube app with youtube vanced?
[Android Apps and Games] Marvino.:
So lately I found a root solution for detaching YouTube package entirely from PlayStore. Which is by hiding the YouTube app from market so it will never get scanned for updates. This will be accomplished by using a Xposed module called SudoHide that basically hides any specific app from any specific app on your device. This will require root, Xposed framework installed and finally the module itself which is found here. https://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-sudohide-prevent-apps-detected-apps-t3384559
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
If you use the non root version, yes.

---------- Post added at 03:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 AM ----------

Well, because, nowhere in the instructions does it say to install an app. You just have it in your download folder on the internal storage with the zip. You flash the zip. It finds the APK and installs it for you.
[Android Apps and Games] AgustinH:
Well...the last thing that I do was that. After that flash Zip in twrp and reboot and didn't get antes YouTube app. Later on was impossible to repeat the proccedure, so I'm in no root version right now. After that 1st unsuccesful attempt, now I get ERROR 1. And It won't install anything. What can I do?
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Not sure there. Maybe upload the recovery log after unsuccessful install.
[Android Apps and Games] AgustinH:
Ok, tomorrow I Will try again
[Android Apps and Games] Mervingio:

[Android Apps and Games] Andrewk2000:
Can i move v youtube to sdcard? Without root:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
Have you chosen "Use as internal storage" when you inserted the SDcard? In that case it should just be a matter of installing the non-root version. Of course, without root you won't have much flexibility. With apps like SD Maid Link2SD and root you have complete control where all files go. Unfortunately, I won't be of much assistance as it's been since KitKat that I actually had a SDcard slot so those apps may just as well have some useful non-root features for you.

---------- Post added at 08:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------

Because there are monkeys sitting in the download center and everytime someone starts downloading one of the YouTube Vanced files, a peanut appears. If a monkey can grab it before your download completes, the download is interrupted. It's either that or there's something wrong with your Internet connection. The monkey theory seems more likely though; don't you agree? ;)
[Android Apps and Games] dr4go:
I'm not exactly sure if it's related, but my youtube vanced version only showed version number 13.12.60, which got me curious...

I then realized, that Youtube comes with my stock rom as system app - you guessed right.... version 13.12.60. It gets even more weird... Because it did show the Youtube Vanced icon also with Vanced starting...

In my case I've disabled the YouTube app before installing Youtube Vanced back then (oh, magisk user here, forgot to state that). Upgrading / Flashing a newer app didn't show any error, but didn't correctly install either. I then thought, f*** it, flashed the version 3 uninstaller through twrp, it did it's job, but did NOT uninstall anything... Checked in magisk and still had three YouTube magisk modules, where I thought this would be correct. Next try was uninstalling all three modules via magisk AND removing the stock Youtube apk from system, which worked fine.

Flashed new magisk apk from magisk manager, worked fine as well... Flashing the installer afterwards (with options magisk and detach), which REMOVED the previous apk and installed another Youtube Vanced, which never made it to the launcher... (3 modules in magisk manager) Again tried the uninstaller from twrp, didn't work... Removed the modules from magisk manager, flashed new magisk Youtube Vanced and afterwards flashing the installer with the detach only module... 2 modules in magisk manager and a happy user.

End of the boring story.
[Android Apps and Games] Opaze:
Exactly. It doesn't require any app to detach from play store. However step 1 is really important otherwise youtube will come back in your updates.

Btw, if you have any trouble, you can delete the enable_detach file and put disable_detach file instead !

Indeed. When I remove my fingerprints, It works pretty well. But when I add even 1 fp, it crashes...

EDIT : I found a workaround to go in the settings with fp enabled.

1) Download AppOps (Requires Root)

2) Find youtube and deny the access to the fp !

3) It works !!!

However, the app still crash when I'm using PiP (it crashes when I come back to "normal" mode)
