I just started getting this message saying I'm not connected to the internet but I clearly am or else I wouldn't be able to type this. Not sure if it's Vanced or MicroG? I'm using the rootless version on my unrootable Amazon MotoG6. Anyone else having this issue?

Edit: I uninstalled MicroG & reinstalled it and now Vanced works again.
[Android Apps and Games] pippoparecchio:
As sugested by [MENTION=4840439]amppcguru[/MENTION] (thank you) I've tried to uninstall MicroG and YTV starts to work....

Now I have to see why MicroG does not :(
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Hey guys.

Today something strange happened and I can't seem to revert it back, no matter what.

I use Vanced through Magisk install, and always worked well, today i noticed that the regular YouTube app replaced Vanced (and i never updated it in the Play Store, in fact, the update is still there waiting to be made)

Anyone having this as well?
[Android Apps and Games] akboy7015:
Try to uninstall it from settings, if there is an update it will be uninstalled and vanced version will be back. If it change nothing that means it's more like a Magisk issue and systemless does not work, maybe try to uninstall them reinstall module
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
That's the thing, I can't uninstall YouTube because I never updated it, I can only disable it (which would disable Vanced as well)

I changed nothing on Magisk as well, and it's working fine regarding other modules and everything else... I was wondering if YouTube itself could be causing this somehow.

I'm going to retry reinstallation once again and checking Magisk status more thoroughly.
[Android Apps and Games] edzamber:
Disable YouTube and remove magisk vanced module, then install non root vanced + microG. This will do the trick.
[Android Apps and Games] JBolho:
Thanks for the advice, just finished solving the issue, I reinstalled Vanced, disabled YouTube, erased all data and cache from it, re-enabled it and Vanced was back in place instead of regular YouTube. Weird stuff but it's working now.
[Android Apps and Games] waingro808:
I installed non-root app and microG, but the app kept crashing upon opening. Rebooted and same thing. Uninstalled both and reinstalled microG FIRST, then non-root app, and it works fine. Hope this helps someone. This app is awesome. Thanks devs!!!

the question is asked every page.

the question is answered every few pages, the last time was only 3 pages back.

[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Firstly, please refrain of using imperative verbs as "learn to do smth" to a user who already knows. Ignoring the question is an option too, yes, but I will talk about that in another paragraph below.

Normally those posts (as by [MENTION=6071751]YamiYukiSenpai[/MENTION]) should have been removed by moderators after being reported by users, as explained here:

https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-youtube-vanced-edition-t3758757/post81490771

So, answering these posts only increase the clutter in thread. Why not take this chance to teach some stuff (that he already agreed on when signing up to XDA) to user? Inform him that he should read&search to get answer to such easy questions rather than post it and wait for spoonfeeding. If you "answer straight" such questions, those questions will continue to get asked over and over even by that same user (you will just increase lazyness of even more users upon seeing your direct reply).

And no. Before you say, even if there will be a message in OP with 16 font bold underlined and italic saying that "don't ask whether project is dead because it isn't", it will still be asked.

I am sure that this and previous posts about this topic will also get removed by moderators, but at least for the meantime you can get this message on your email (if you activated email) too in case it gets removed before you re-login to XDA.

Good luck.

using the magisk version of vanced on 6T. One thing puzzles me: I can not use voice search, asks me to give it permission manually, but in settings there is no permission for accesing microphone.

Not a big deal, but still...
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Use voice search on your keyboard app (e.g. gboard supports it) as a workaround

[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
Eleo's suggestion is much easier for most users and is effective for voice search so I don't mean to discount that. I would just like to add to it a little bit since the last time I posted this not-so-user-friendly fix to the microphone permission problem I knew it had worked for me but wasn't sure if it would work on different devices, OS, etc. My device/OS is what you might call vintage or a throwback, actually let's go with "classic" but since then other users that have more recent devices/OS (newborns) who've tried it has confirmed that it works for them as well.

It's really only necessary for users who would like to use YouTube Live which will not work until the microphone permission has been granted. I'll try to use some keywords that someone might search for since this is a problem that only affects a handful of people and will no doubt get buried under a sea of eta posts and useless bug reports (bug reports require, at minimum, logcats or a way to replicate for f---s sake.) I'm sorry, that minor outburst doesn't have anything to the user I quoted who I'm sure is a lovely person.

If anyone needs the microphone permission for Youtube live or voice search you can try this:

With a root browser go to /data/system/users/0/runtime-permissions.xml and open with a text editor. Look for the package name com.google.android.youtube and add this line

<item name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" granted="true" flags="0" />

circled in the screen shot below. Then I cleared data (may not be necessary) for Youtube and rebooted.

*Note- It won't ask again for mic permission to be granted, instead it will just already be granted.

It goes without saying, but I'm going to say it anyway, that this is only for the root version of Vanced.
[Android Apps and Games] SM-03:
is there any version of this YTV for android TV? I installed this version in my android TV &noticed that this interface isn't for smart tv. Hence asking here, lately getting a lot of ads in my smart tv while in official YT app watching videos.
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
There is a different app called Smart YT TV which has a TV interface but mind that discussion about it here will be considered off topic.
[Android Apps and Games] joriq:
thank you very much for the effort. For me, the keyboard option is a no go (don't have a mic shortcut and when I add it, I keep hitting it by mistake) and I'll probably try editing the runtime permissions (just did, but the text editor in my file manager sucks :rolleyes: ). Still, if it's such an easy fix, I hope it will be added in future versions of Vanced as default.
[Android Apps and Games] SM-03:
thanks. So Smart YouTube TV is the best for android tv right as you suggested? I'll try that out.

[Android Apps and Games] Forkings:
This works! Amazing! Tried a lot of things but didn't work! Thank you so much!

I want to share in more detail how I fixed in a Huawei Mate 20 with EMUI 10 (non root).

1. Disable the original YouTube App on: Settings > Apps > YouTube > Disable.

2. Turn off your device and start it again (or try to restart if you want).

3. Once your phone is started (or restarted) - what you did in the 2nd step - make a clean using software like SD Maid (is what I used, but maybe using also a CCleaner will work too).

4. Install as [MENTION=6323980]chooks06[/MENTION] says: first the MicroG and then the YouTube Vanced apk.

5. Open YouTube Vanced from the same install "pop-up" - it's how I did it - or try to open browsing the App in Apps menu or where you have all your Apps icons (hope make sense what I say). Configure YouTube Vanced: introduce your YouTube account and change some setting if you want, and/or go directly to play 1 o 2 videos to test.

6. Restart your device, and open YouTube Vanced and play 1 or 2 videos and if it still works, congratulations you have already installed successfuly YouTube Vanced: at least it worked perfectly for me.

Casting issue

After moving to a new router which assigned different lan ip addresses to my unrooted fire hd tablet and firetv stick I can no longer cast from vanced to the stick, it sees my stick but refuses to connect. I can connect using the tv number code method but have to do this every time as its not remembered so id like to get casting working again. I tried:

Restarting fire tv stick

Uninstalling and reinstalling vanced (current stable version) after deleting its data and cache

Ditto for Smart youtube tv on Fire stick, which is the app vance used to cast to.

I suspect that somewhere the old ip for the Fire stick is stored and blocking access. Any ideas?

Interrupted playback

I've been using Vanced (Via Magisk) for a few years, but today something happened that I've never seen before. I was watching a playlist of videos that I'd made while I was tidying, and every so often (so frequently it became very annoying) the playback stopped itself and I had to go back to my phone and press it to confirm I was still watching. Playback wasn't in background mode or anything, I had the videos open and playing like normal. I haven't changed anything that I know of that could have caused this, and as I said, I've never seen it happen before.

Is there a way to stop this happening? As having to stop what I'm doing and go back to the phone to get it carry on playing every 20 minutes or so is highly annoying.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] Venom0642:
Don't think they can do nothing, it's YouTube server side.

I recently updated my S8+ with Stock image, rooted and wanted to reinstall Youtube vanced (worked before the update to the latest security patch)

No matter if i install via Magisk Repo or root installer (14.21.54), the app starts but remains empty with a spinning wheel.

I did several reboots, uninstall, reinstall, deleted cache and data but no luck.

What can i do?
[Android Apps and Games] metz1996:
Thanks for your help. I will try this later when i'm at home :good:;)

[Android Apps and Games] Mithias:
Managed to resolve things by doing a dirty reflash of my ROM. If I get time later I'll take a fresh nandroid and try repeat the issue to see if it was that. Just to confirm the order I should be doing things:

Uninstall updates for stock YouTube app

Disable auto updates for stock YouTube app

Reboot

Install vanced from magisk repo

Reboot

And then I should see vanced app

Thanks,

Yes, using the root, or magisk (also root) method.

That's about the only advantage the root method has.

[Android Apps and Games] da4o98:
hey Team Vanced

there is only one very helpful(at least for me) feature missing in YouTube Vanced

the ability to choose a Default Pane (in my case a playlist of all my liked videos) when you open YouTube just like the Xposed module YourTube+ has.

i have a workaround for that but it would be nice to have that feature built into the app and i'm sure someone else would appreciate it also.

Learn to appreciate the features it has!

Having the same

I having the same issue. I even get blank screen. I'll switch from home to subscription and gone every thing is blank even going back to home.
[Android Apps and Games] hauhauhau7:
Same here, not rooted, happened on the previous version also.
[Android Apps and Games] kevintm78:
The problem with this fix is that it can only be made after the app is installed and the runtime permission file has been updated by the system. I think (mostly guessing) that the permission needs to be added to the android manifest in the apk itself but that could be problematic when trying to recompile the apk. Once upon a time, I had tried to add the permission myself but I couldn't even get the apk to recompile without making any changes.

It may not be as easy of a fix as it appears, but if I can figure it out I'll pass it along to the vanced team since I'm sure they've got enough on their plate with all the other features they add.

Making a flashable fix.zip might work if all else fails.

I hope vanced gets updated soon it's been a couple months since it was updated. Ads are popping up on the homescreen and under videos and it keeps asking me to update.
[Android Apps and Games] Gruber008:

Why does everyone keep asking for updates when they're not necessary, everything is working just fine if you configure it correctly. :good:

[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Home screen ads has been attributed to Google's end and also regional. Discussed quite often in this thread - usually a few users will highlight over av few days, then silence for sometime then the discussion cycle repeats..lol

I do get that sometimes then later, nothing.

So far this only happens in my phones (not rooted stock ROM as well as custom ROMs) but never happened on my Tab S4 running custom ROM.

For all the devices I use the same non root VYT version.

When there is an update available, there will be an update button in the 'downloads' section of magisk manager. Most Current version is 14.21.54

same here...just updated my pixel with latest security patch and reinstalled from magisk downloads and opens...then closes. never had this happen before. using rooted version
[Android Apps and Games] Akash Raj1:
Maybe try using Magisk 19.3 or older and check if the issue persists.
[Android Apps and Games] Philnicolls89:
Try updating YouTube in the play store which will replaced it with the official app. Then uninstall official app using a program like titanium backup and install vanced again using magisk repo.
[Android Apps and Games] deebray36:
yea i just updated it then uninstalled updates and vanced started working again. funny thing is i tried this earlier and it didn't work. i guess second times a charm

[Android Apps and Games] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

I have a question: If I went with the "Non-Root" version of YTVanced instead of the Magisk version that I currently use, would it still show YouTube as needing to be updated (I know not to do that) when I check for app updates in the Google Play Store?

If that seems like a silly question, I apologize. But it's actually a logical question, since I used to use a YT replacement by "0GMods" and you could actually run their Non-Root YT side-by-side with Google's YT. They just gave it a slightly different name and so it did not trigger YouTube to say there's an update waiting. That's why I ask. I didn't know if it was the same with Vanced.

I like the Magisk version of course. And YT Vanced is definitely the best I've ever seen! What _immediately_ impressed me is how much sharper the video is in Vanced over Google's YT!

But the strange result is that when an app is left sitting there in Play Updates, instead of being applied, updates for other apps either take forever to show up in the waiting app updates list, or never appear there, even though updates are available. It's not because of Vanced. It just happens anytime any app update is left sitting there. You can tell it's happening by going to various installed apps in the Play Store and even though they don't show in the waiting updates list, they will have an update available. I just did it today and found 12 updates for apps, each of them days old.

Anyway, would I be in the same place if I uninstalled the Magisk version and installed the Non-Root version?

If I would, then I would like to humbly request a "different name" version, so that the Google Play Store won't always show a YouTube update waiting to be applied.

Lastly, the Magisk version hasn't shown an update since I installed it and says the last update was October, 2019. I'm not pushing for an update. It works beautifully! I'm just asking if that's accurate, because I had read before installing it that it is "updated often" and so I just wanted to make sure that the date mine is showing is accurate and that it's not just my device because I'm still on Nougat or something.

Thank you all for your time!

Dave
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Non root VYT has a different package name so it is independent of GYT. You can opt to uninstall or disable GYT or it can be left alone.

If installing non root VYT, suggested that the MicroG apk be installed first, followed by the VYT apk.

Latest version is what you'll get from the link in OP. VYT version numbers will never keep pace with GYT versions. Devs will update it only if there's something significant and necessary in the later GYT versions.

Hope this helps. Cheers!
