Don't use that version any way it's been deprecated.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Great. If I tell you answer directly you would not get the joy of learning it. But as I said, there are thousands of other users. If they think otherwise they would have already answered.

BTW, you are welcome for the hints

Not deprecated. It still works and some users still use that. And ads are on homepage. Like in "non-deprecated" latest version. From what you say, it turns out latest version is also deprecated because it also has ads on homepage. But it isn't. Although it is true that it is not latest.

Hi!

Just a quick one here.

So my dear samsung s8 is gone :(

Got me a p30 pro. Youtube vanced works good.

But i have one problem. I can't exit youtube vanced it keeps running. I have to pause the video to exit.

Anyone have a tips?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Kovaelin:
Thank you very much for the comprehensive answer and covering all those methods! I really appreciate it! What about the latest non-rooted legacy version of VYT (14.21.54). Would that be similar to the non-root SAI method, where it's a different app?

Somewhat unrelated, but is there an updated list of known issues? I saw that there's a bug with in-app purchases, but I'm wondering if notifications are working properly.

Thanks again!

UPDATE: I think I may have found the issue with the notifications. I found a separate FAQ over here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Vanced/wiki/faq#wiki_notifications_aren.27t_working.21

I came across this video recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciYepV-pXgg

It says that you need to disable MIUI, so that might be the issue.

Settings > Background > Playback

Is that what you're talking about? You can also disable the miniplayer/picture-in-picture in the app's System settings.

Hi guys,

I am facing the error where it says "please check your connection", i have attached the screenshot.

I sign in to my account successfully but after sign-in i get this message. I still dont have my account in vanced app.

Vanced app is working, its just that i cant sign-in with my account.

I can see the account added under android setting->accounts

Things i have done:

Downloaded & installed latest vanced app & micro g and installed it.

Uninstalled app & micro g, rebooted and installed again, no luck

Tried to install lower versions of app & micro g, same error.

Uninstalled YouTube app updates, disabled app, still same error.

Any ideas whats causing the issue and how can i resolve it?

Any help is much appreciated.

Using Samsung A30

Android 10 (one UI 2.0)

Edit:

This is how i fixed it, if in-case you come across the same problem

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

8. Open Vanced and voila you are signed-in

Hope its helpful.

Cheers :)

No when i play a video in background and press "cloce all apps" it's still running.

I must pause the video then "cloce all apps" for it to exit.

On my samsung s8 there where nothing like that.

I guess it's a huawey thing. Im not a big fan :(

But it's not a vanced problem i notice. Its the same thing with spotify.
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
The only difference between the legacy (apk) and SAI (apks) distributions is that they are nearly a year of YouTube versions apart. Since Google applies a lot of non-functional updates, I wouldn't say a lot has changed. They also regulate many features from a server perspective so in a way we've always received some form of updates. I personally haven't noticed any significant change after updating to the new version. There could be security concerns with older versions, I guess. If you'd like to see a list of changes you'll have to look for a list of YouTube Android release notes.

For a list of known issues, please refer to the "Known bugs" section in the first post. It also includes the purchase issue. I don't seem to have any issues with notifications myself.
[Android Apps and Games] FaTlip82:
Is there any alternative of a SAI App for older devices like 4.2.2?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
There is an older vanced that still works ok and with no issues. Check AFH or mediafire download links in OP.
[Android Apps and Games] Kessedy:
Thank you! How do I support?
[Android Apps and Games] Kovaelin:
Thank you for that.

For anyone else having problems with notifications, I also found another part to the solution. In the MicroG app settings, Google Cloud Messaging might be on and include YouTube Vanced, but the "Current State" might be Disconnected. To connect it, tap on the three dot menu option and select Advanced. Now toggle any of the networks to anything else and switch them back to Automatic. Current State should now be Connected and able to push notifications.

Is there a way to install YouTube vanced root version on Android 10 without xposed?
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
The no connection problem has been discussed before.

Just to check.. If you're installing the latest v15 non root, install the MicroG first as a normal APK then the VYT apks using SAI.

There were a few solutions suggested before but I didn't pin the post. Sorry about that. Some users replied some didn't.

If you're installing the root version, I can't help - never used that. I always using non root on rooted and non rooted devices because it's the easiest way out for me. I always install the MicroG first.

But I'm not on Android 10 so maybe no speaking rights..

Try removing the account on device settings - MicroG then sign in again. It could also be a Webview related issue (but I forgot what that solved).

Sorry if I'm of no help.

Cheers!

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

Was there an Xposed version? You mean Magisk version?

No, there will likely not be anymore Magisk version.

It's been mentioned before (sorry, I didn't pin that message).

Maybe you would like to try the non root version?

Download the correct files for your device, install MicroG as a normal APK, then install the v15 non root apks using SAI.

Xposed stopped at Android 8. EdXposed is a different ball game.

Sorry if I'm not much help.
[Android Apps and Games] Naudiz:
One thing that is not clear to me:

When I use a custom rom that doesn't have YT pre-installed as system app, why can't I install the "root" version simply as a user-app without disabling signature checks? I always thought that the tricky part with the root version is that it needs to replace the pre-existing YouTube while carrying a different signature. But when there is no stock YouTube, why would it still not work?

The Default Playback Speed option is not being respected in 15.05.54 Non-Root build 0.41.10 on Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

The last version it worked on was 14.21.54, which i reverted to. I remember this being an issue in a few past versions. Tried the old clear data, clear data-uninstall-reinstall, and clear data-uninstall-reboot-reinstall, along with various settings toggles (multiple speed settings, reverting to defaults, turn on/off Exoplayer v2, etc.) - nothing worked.

Also, the first post of this thread says: "Alternative Mirrors: AFH (rarely updated) Mediafire (only the latest)", but Mediafire has only old versions.

First post on the best app/mod ever built. I am a fan for years now.

One suggestion :

With swipe controls options on, in landscape mode. Both controls goes from side all the way to the middle.

This way you can't open the tabs for other suggested videos. You have to turn off to swipe up the "menu"

Is it possible to set up a gap with no control function somewhere in the middle of the screen, so you can acces the suggested video menu?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
No. Was already asked and answered several times in thread

You can't know without trying. If it allows apk installations, then you can probably use nonroot 14.21.54 rather than new version (which requires sai)

[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:
Classic, you didn't disabled the signature verification. Check the instructions again.
[Android Apps and Games] saoudien07:
I was getting error very similar to this so I suspected it was relation to this "signature Verification", and I dont know how to disabe the Signature verification, so here was my last try that worked.

I changed some stuff into SAI Settings: PS:

Installer: I set it to ROOT

location of installation: Only Interne

and I enable SIGNATURE (it is a key logo)

and hop the installation was succefull without to have to disable anything related to "signature Verification"

Rom Used: Black Diamond Pie V7.0 and Magisk 20.3

Can some body tell me if I did something wrong, and if I had to go through another way of installation???

Thx in advance.

edit: everytime I open Vanced, it crach after few sec.

I want to install if the way it is supposed to be installed.

Can somebody orient me to a way to disable Signature Verification??

Thx

Of course is wrong, you can't login if you do that. Instructions are clear on vanced.app

Thx you for the suggestion buddy! I have been using suduHide to detach yotube from PlayStore for about 1-1.5 years now.

I got tired from all detach method available, and did not work for me. I choosed suduHide since Oreo and old XPosed.

So now on Pie, I jump into EdXposed + suduHide >> detach alternative to youtube, at least to do have yt in Store update and to keep auto-update enabled for the restof apps... Actually very happy that such very old module is still able to work, and do its purpose!

:good:
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Sorry for the late response.

I don't know what's rpm command.

I'm assuming that it should be uninstalled the same way it was installed, e.g. if installed as Magisk module, then uninstall via Magisk Manager etc.

This is my first time using SAI but using a non root version of VYT was easy (using SAI default settings out of the tin).

From your screenshot, it appears there are traces of the previous version left behind (@garrylawd has mentioned).

I have no idea how to nail down your issue.

Perhaps you may want to try the non root version? Because it has a different package name, it doesn't matter whether YT exists.

Hello I have a problem. If I have deactivate the default youtube and I have only the non root youtube vanced in my phone, the video in Google play store doesn't work. Is any problem if I have both of apps activated?
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
No problem if you have both activated. Only thing is, the youtube links on whatsapp/telegram and etc might open on Google's YouTube rather than Vanced YouTube if you have both of them active.

And yes, I also have nonroot Vanced YouTube without Google's YouTube and playstore videos don't open. That is expected afaik.

Just for you I enabled Google's YouTube and checked, playstore videos open right away. So you can safely do it.

So after i remove "PowerGenie" youtube vanced worked for 2 days (play in background) about 14h playback, no problem whatsoever.

So i restored "PowerGenie" and the same story.

After about 1h playing in background youtube vanced closes and i have to re open.

Now im 99% sure it must be "PowerGenie" thats the problem.

Maybe PowerGenie don't like the signature of youtube vanced?

Strange no one else seems to have this problem.

But mayby the don't use background playback for 7h per day like i do.
