Something is wrong with

[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Normal. It happens once in a while to me. Though the ad never appear to change..lol.

I just dismiss it. No big deal.

It's some server end side of crap.

Try the MediaFire link in post #3 in this thread.

Or you can download from XDA labs if you're using the app. Just take note the "beta" is actually stable black and the "stable" is actually stable dark. It's not really a beta.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

A suggestion.

Non root needs Vanced microg to be installed for sign in.

Go to device settings - apps manager (or something like that) and see if you have the correct (matching) version of Vanced microg installed.

Clear data in both Vanced YT and microg. Then try to log in. (You'll have to redo the settings in VYT).

If Vanced microg is not installed, download the corresponding version from OP (if site is down use the MediaFire link).

For VYT 14.21.54, install the microg apk first then the app itself.

Hope this helps.

I'm having the same battery drain issue as well. MicroG is draining my battery with wake locks. According to BBS the drain comes from the contact-sync-service. Here's the link to the screenshot of BBS

https: (slash slash) uc51867888f4a2dc91659cf9fdc2.dl.dropboxusercontent.com/cd/0/get/As9uAIIrui_9UfWQotJCXEiIZQ14QR1pT9cJcAW8viTfcF48LG554OYuUbOEb-00BjwqOG8oAgDBsaTCEKVQD7t9zxroBWEdpLHHy1ISCIDi1qwbYmU8rQJIzsj9yZnyluY/file?dl=0#

It seams to be a known issue with microG. Here's the issue on GitHub:

https: (slash slash) github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/issues/748

There are several workarounds:

- Disable microG contact permission

- Disable ContactSyncService component by shell

su

pm disable com.mgoogle.android.gms/org.microg.gms.people.ContactSyncService

or by using MyAndroidTools

Unfortunately non of these solutions are suitable for me, as I'm still using Android 5 (no way to remove permission) and I'm not having root (can't disable component).

Is there another solution/workaround?

Might it be possible to get this fixed in microG soon?

Thank you all,

XaNO35
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Sorry for my ignorance.

You guys referring to Vanced MicroG?

I didn't have any issues hence my confusion.
[Android Apps and Games] XaNO35:
All good :)

Thanks for your reply!

Yes, I'm referencing to the Vanced MicroG (used for Vanced YouTube), not to the "usual" MicroG. But both seems to have the same issue as it seems to come from this ContactSyncService.

What they say over there in Github in the issue thread: "Seems new Google play cause this problem. Seems that the Android contacts force the microg to sync the contacts."
[Android Apps and Games] flemlion13:
Since some time I'm having issues while sorting entries in my playlists. It looks like a background refresh kicks in and resets to the first 20 entries.

The graphical effect is disturbing as it seems to swipe all entries to the left and remove them, but fortunately it's just a screen effect and the list is not modified.

Sometimes it even crashes the app, probably if it happens while dragging an entry.

I've seen it on multiple devices, running different android versions, but all with the latest 14.21.54
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Ah yes. That appears to be the case. Read about this in this thread..

However, I usually use non root VYT, with GYT uninstalled if device rooted, GYT disabled if device not rooted.

Maybe that's why I didn't encounter this. Other than the odd home page ad (which remains the same everytime it appears..lol).

Thanks for the info.

Cheers!

Edit.. I've never installed MicroG (other than Vmg), hence never encountered similar issues raised by other users.
[Android Apps and Games] XaNO35:
Thank you for your reply!

I've bove Google YouTube and Vanced Youtube installed. While searching for stuff like e.g. "battery drain" I couldn't find a solution in this thread. I'll try to disable Google YouTube and see if the issue still persists. Otherwise I already prepared a new MicroG Vanced APK whitout WAKE_LOCK permission (thanks to ***REMOVED*** :D), but not really shure if this is a good idea :cyclops:

Please don't mention lucky patcher on xda. It's an app designed to screw over developers and on xda we are all about supporting devs and the work they do.

Nobody cares if you use it just please refrain from mentioning it here in the threads
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
I see no reason why he can't mention Lucky Patcher, it's designed for more than just malicious intent against developers. I use it for cloning and backing up APK's myself and there's nothing wrong with that.
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
It says it in the rules not to mention warez. There are many other legit developers who you could support who supply the exact same services you use from that terrible app.

It's called the Android "community" we all look after each other and support devs as much as we can. Like I said previously if you want to use it that's your own business but it's like Voldemort here in xda. "the app that shall not be named"
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
Was unaware that Lucky Patcher is a warez app (man that's going back). Besides you need root access to make full use of it anyway and most people don't have that, well, unless you come here often I suppose.

I'm open to alternatives that does much of the same jobs without all the malicious stuff if anyone has advice.

For now I will use another YouTube alternative and wait for a fix.

Thank you all for your help!

Titanium backup can do what you need but you will probably need the pro key for cloning. There are literally hundreds of cloning apps out there on the playstore also.

Migrate is another app for backing up apps which is relatively new and it's quite good.

I'm not telling you that you can't use that other app I'm just letting you know that it has a very bad name across the whole of XDA and is not spoken of on these threads.

Hey there, i saw a video on YouTube that an upcoming policy change will directly affect Vanced users, in which if a user is detected in using modded app to use the service they can effectively prevent your Gmail account from accessing the site all together.

[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Not sure if I'm answering you correctly but I would think using non root VYT could be a possible workaround if not a solution.

For the non root, you need to install the corresponding version of the Vanced microg. Both apks are found in the link provided by OP (if links are down, use the MediaFire alternative).

Should you decide to do this, install the microg apk first, then VYT.

Edited for typo..
[Android Apps and Games] MiMoHo:
Deleted my Google account on my Android 9 device. Vanced and MicroG are installed in their latest versions. Now going into the Vanced app, tapping on the profile button, I'm asked to add an account. When adding a Google account here, it is added to the device's accounts which syncs all of my other Google apps. I wish to only use my Google account inside the Vanced app without it being added to the phone for other Google services.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Not root version of VYT?

Disable GYT (aka uninstall updates, don't allow auto update for that app).

Awesome app guys !

My only suggestion is to please add SWIPE UP for full screen .

I exercise in the gym everyday and lift heavy weights so my fingers are thick.

When I try to enable full screen I end up fast forwarding to the end of the video.

When it's minimized swiping up makes it regular sized.

So naturally, it makes sense to swipe up to go full screen.

Keep up the great work !

[Android Apps and Games] 909909:
Since many of us primarily use phones with small screens ... screen real estate is invaluable

It would be amazing if the new update had these options:

Swipe UP for fullscreen

Enable / Disable Status and Navigation bars (more space for thumbnails on the homescreen)

Bigger RED DOT on the video slider ( I end up highlighting the video title when trying to seek )

And an option to disable the top youtube logo / search / user icon and bottom home / trending / subscriptions/ inbox / library on the bottom to free up more space on the homescreen.
[Android Apps and Games] KNGPN Q w Q:

[Android Apps and Games] koberulz:
Anyone?
[Android Apps and Games] rockman_x:
magisk
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
OK, I'll stick my neck out on this one. I use my own detach system, which I think is based on the same basic principals. ie not the magisk detach system.

The play store keeps a record of which apps you have installed in databases (two in particular). So the detach works by removing the YouTube record from these databases, so when the play store checks what needs to be updated, it doesn't see that you have YouTube installed, and thus doesn't try to update it.

You can look inside the Magisk module to see the script and how it deletes the selected records (YT in this case), from specific databases.

or did you mean to say Magic. I think the user was looking for a more explicitly detailed/technical explanation of how it works.;)
[Android Apps and Games] koberulz:
Actually I was looking for "what exactly do I need to do to make it happen". The OP mentions PLZ files or something, but where do I get them?
[Android Apps and Games] jons99:
download the installer - View attachment ytva-universal-installer-v5.1.zip extract the ytva_only_detach_from_playstore.plz file put both files (the installer and the plz file) in the download directory reboot to twrp and flash the installer.

you will get a new magisk module called youtube vanced detach.
[Android Apps and Games] neonsoap:
Hey guys! Trying really hard to make the non-root version work on my Lenovo Tab P10 (Android 9 Pie). The app itself works just fine but I cannot figure out how to log in successfully. I tried the latest versions (14.21.54/14.10.53; 0.2.6.17455/0.2.4-105) and I always end up getting the “please check your network connection” error. I tried most of the workarounds and installed/deinstalled both apps multiple times while disabling Youtube and Chrome, clearing the cache/storage etc. I do not really know what else to do so I thought I might ask you directly. Any sort of help would be really appreciated! Thank you in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] Silppa:
This just started to happen today to me also. It was working fine like 6h ago.
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
Clear data for both apps (you'll have to redo VYT settings all over) and see if it's solved.

If not, uninstall then reinstall VYT Microg .17455 first, followed by VYT 14.21.54.

Attempt login..

Also, if you've not changed password to the Google account that was previously signed in to VYT. If wouldn't tell you that there's something wrong except that there's a connection error and you don't have internet connection (which you absolutely have). Happened to me when I lost a phone and first thing first was to change Google acct password to kill access to that device.
[Android Apps and Games] Silppa:
Thanks! Yes I actually changed my password today didn't thought that. I installed everything again from vanced.app and now it's working ?
[Android Apps and Games] neonsoap:
Thank you so much for your reply! Sadly this did not work for me. It is a bit strange because it actually worked before I did a system update. After this I got another error message, telling me I had no internet connection (even though I had). I decided to delete the account and add it again and since then I am getting the "please check your network connection"-error. :(
[Android Apps and Games] koberulz:
Does this still apply if I installed via Magisk rather than the installer initially?
[Android Apps and Games] jons99:
i believe so afaik it just add the detach module to magisk.

note that the playstore might crash from time to time when in use with this module.
[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:

First it was "you are offline" error. It was the only app that couldn't detect my WiFi. All my other apps were connected to the internet.

Force stop, clear cache then uninstall first the Vanced app then the Micro G. Reinstalled. Now it's just crashing on open.

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

The "no internet connection" error happens to me once in a while. If the password of the account logged in to VYT (which is also the/one of the Google accounts in the device) is changed, this will appear.

Just to make sure - the account you deleted with respect to VYT non root is the Vanced MicroG account (with the small g in blue background)?

Maybe it could have been affected by the system update you had. In my case, I'd get a "bit paranoid" - clear data in the VYT app info screen (will have to setup preferences all over again), remove the VYT microg account, then clear data in the Vanced microg app info screen, then log in.

Should I then decide to reinstall, it would be installing the corresponding Vanced MicroG then followed by be the VYT apk.

Usually this works.

I'm sorry that I don't have a better solution (from an user's perspective).

Hope you get it up and running.

How does it know what to detach with this method?
[Android Apps and Games] garylawwd:
Its built in to vanced. It has its own detach method which flashes with the root and magisk versions. Its disabled by default because of how buggy it was in the past. Simply adding the file just enables it
[Android Apps and Games] icodix:
I flashed it through magisk and i got looped. I think its because the app is already updated to its new version isn't?
[Android Apps and Games] CarbonGTR:
Which Android version are you on? Even on Android 10 builds that come with an Updated Youtube app, This module shouldn't cause a bootloop.

1. Remove Youtube vanced.

2. Install the debloat module.

3. Debloat the official youtube app and reboot.

4. Go and uninstall updates for the youtube app, Reboot.

5. Install Youtube Vanced Module.

This is what I did on Android 10.
