If you reisntall same version of a magisk module that was already present, it just uninstalls that module. It was like that since long ago. Just reinstall again and it will install it. To uninstall it, reinstall magisk module again... And so on.

Just please read the info on screen whenever you flash anything. It was 100% mentioned on screen that module of same version is present, uninstalling module.

When you install an update though, it says "newer module is installed, uninstalling old one, then installing new one".

Please be attentive next time

I just uninstalled YTV, rebooted into recovery to clear cache, reinstalled YTV, rebooted, and I'm still getting ads. I'm also running Magisk 18.0 if that matters.
[Android Apps and Games] johnny.tifosi:
I can confirm getting ads in the homepage. I started getting these ads today using an older version (root) , I updated to the latest one 13.46.53 and still getting ads. It's a universal problem, probably coming from YouTube itself.
[Android Apps and Games] bghyt:
Thank you very much it worked :D
[Android Apps and Games] rafaelloaa:
just a follow-up, I have determined that this is also an issue with the stock YouTube app. So while this is clearly not the problem of Vanced team, can anyone give me any suggestions on how to fix the bug? It's minor, but annoying, especially on videos which have information at the very top or bottom of the screen.

I dont get ads with adaway+magisk anymore. Ads inside video are already blocked by Vanced team. Only ads remaining were non-intrusive ones on homepage and now they are not present too
[Android Apps and Games] SUPERUSER:
Weird...I did a clean install right now and the ads from Home tab are gone.

I did this yesterday, and the day before that several times when reflashing the phone.

I too always have Adaway installed and the ads showed up but not now.

I think this is server side because the last update of the magisk module is from Dec 3

Hi all,

I can't seem to install via root method.

As instructed on the OP, and at vanced official site, I:

1. Completely removed youtube from my device.

2.Downloaded the apk and universal installer to sdcard/downloads

3. Flashed the installer via TWRP.

4. Zip flash ended successfully.

When rebooting, vanced YouTube is no where to be found.

Running a OnePlus 6 with Android Pie

Am I missing something?

Are the install instructions up to date?

Thanks

[MENTION=1212561]henengel[/MENTION] Hello,

I can't make the root package to work, using Magisk module ( youtube-vanced app missing after install like you ). Don't know if it is a Magisk v18 update issue or something else... ( I just updated my Honor 8 and it has december security patches now ).

But... the non-root apk is updated more frequently so I installed the latest version , and MicroG "New" apk.

Optional: Add "MicroG" as a System App to always keep your Google account connected to Youtube Vanced. ;)

Working well for me! :)

Not sure why I was able to install successfully on one device and not another...

I installed Vanced dark from Magisk repo on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 running CM13, but after reboot I still get regular YouTube.

I tried to uninstall YouTube, which I did, before installing Vanced, but on reboot it still wasn't installed.

I have no problems with any other Magisk module.

Kev's right .. already read all your post, if u've uninstalled stock youtube properly it should never reinstall on reboot ..

Try to delete youtube again by whatever means your doing then delete youtube folder as well by going to your root directory system/app/YouTube or system/priv-app/YouTube ..

Afterwards just follow the instruction for ROOT users don't use magisk anymore because it's not working for you !!
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
See your mistakes? Removing it with the magisk debloater also removes the magisk module vanced YouTube. they have the same package name so you are essentially debloating vanced when you debloat regular YouTube. You didn't have to do anything except for install the magisk module. Maybe remove updates.

That's it.

so take it out of the debloater that you put it in, and all will be fine.

The magisk debloater (remember magisk doesn't modify system at all) replaces it with an empty file so that it no longer shows up. if vanced YouTube and regular YouTube have the same package name, you likely debloated it.

Go to the first page of this thread.

[Android Apps and Games] Sjhingan:
Mediafire only has links for APK. im looking for a zip file i can flash using TWRP. Is there a way to flash an apk?
[Android Apps and Games] chooks06:
In MediaFire, tap on the version you want and there are 2 sub folders - one for root another for non root.

The non root version apk is installed like any app via the installer. It can be used in rooted device as well. To sign in, you need to install the Microg app from the link as well. If using Vanced v13, use the .105 Microg.

If flashing the zip, no need for Microg.

I recommend you read a few pages backwards in this thread.

Some queries have been replied and would probably be able to give you a clearer idea between the 2 variants of Vanced.

Hello need some help. I download YouTube vanced from the magisk manager. But than I saw that it only gets updated thru the apk. I downloaded for the new version of vanced. So my question is can I just run the apk and update it or do I have to uninstall the vanced version I got from magisk I'm scared if I run the apk to update YouTube that it will boot loop thanks in advanced.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
If by apk you mean non-root, you can use both, you don't need to uninstall root version to use non-root. Just be sure you read OP thoroughly.

But you are wrong, both of them will be updated. It does NOT update only through apk.
[Android Apps and Games] gokou46:
I downloaded the root version of it.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I suggest you reread the posts in thread
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You just update it in magisk manager when an update is available there. All of the different versions of Vanced get updated in their respective places. If you got it in magisk manager, don't try to mess with any APK anything. Just check in magisk manager occasionally to see if there is an update. If there is, tap update and reboot as with any other magisk module. Don't try to complicate things.

I'm not sure what someone before meant requesting for strech option but it is working for me. Using full screen you can strech it to the edges - works fine.

One question is if you can do something about forced pouse after an hour of watching without touching the screen. I know that it's YouTube or Google stupidity but I would be grateful if you could disable it.

Huge thanks for developers!
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I am not a "network guy" by any means, however, my understanding is that the DNS you use may direct you to a server in a different different region, but at that server, you will still report your current IP (not the DNS servers IP). So I would say you would be reporting the IP provided by your VPN. Your VPN would map to a region, so you will most likely see the ads targeted for the region of your VPN. You will always have some region associated with an internet connection. Unless you get one of those special reserved IP's:angel:

On a personal note / FYI, I am located in Australia, and use YouTube mostly over WiFi, by a provider that locates me coming out of Australia. Since I have not seen any bugs or missing features for me in the version I have installed, I have not had a need to upgrade to the latest version. So, for an FYI i am using v13.37.52. I do not know if its my region or if its the version, but I cannot remember ever seeing any ads, even on the front page.:good:
[Android Apps and Games] bmark240:
Good for you. I guess it must be server side then & we need an update.

My VPN is based (at the moment in Luxemberg) but still get generic adverts... But I would presume that placeholders would appear (I use Adaway too).

Let me know if you don't get adverts on

Version 13.49.52, you may be a lucky one. I suspect not as YouTube is pushing updates daily & being able to circumvent monetization & block adverts is akin to spitting in the wind.
[Android Apps and Games] Klyno:
It's quite weird though as it just came like an hour ago and not since I've reinstalled vanced. Hope it gets fixed in a next update.

PS. Using adaway aswell

PPS. I bet it's all due to that massively disliked rewind video somehow /s
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Wait a sec, you want me to install a version that may give me ads? :p

Actually, I have a second/"spare" dev phone, which also has Vanced on it. When I get a chance, I'll try the upgrade, and let you know if I get ads on the new one, or if I am simply lucky with my region.:cowboy:

Thanks for prompt response. I will try to put back youtube via debloater and let you know

I have following questions

But I debloated youtube first and then installed youtube vanced

Instructions do say that remove youtube app if you can, thats why i debloated it at first place

---------- Post added at 02:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 AM ----------

[MENTION=5752019]madbat99[/MENTION]

Your suggestion Works !!!

May help someone , so here are steps

As soon as I put back youtube back via [TERMINAL] DEBLOATER and rebooted, default youtube app was replaced by youtube vanced and it appeared in system as well

It was not working when I had debloated youtube and was trying to install it with app store

Bottom line , dont debloat youtube, Uninstall updated in app store and disable auto-update in play store should be enough
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Then it hasn't been updated yet. Sit tight it will be. There is nothing anywhere that says it's not updated in magisk repo. That's rediculous. There are experimental updates to non root. You can't do anything with that in magisk. Where do people get this crap information.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Even if the instructions say to remove YouTube if you can, you need to understand that there is a difference between remove and systemlessly debloat.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I am using the rooted version (v13.37.52). I could only find the suggested v13.49.52 for non-root. Or am I blind?
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
No, you are not. The latest experimental version is still non root only. I assume the other version would be made after it is considered as stable

That being said, there is no harm in testing that non root version just to see whether the ads are gone or not.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Not expecting you to read my personal history, but for me, I do not have, and have no memory of, ever seeing any ads. Someone just suggested I try the newer version, which is when I realised it was only non-root.

Non-root app is updated firstly. After that, the changes are merged to root ones.

P.S. I started seeing ads weeks ago. But after updating AdAway hosts, I dont see them anymore
[Android Apps and Games] Razerman:
I made a new build yesterday once someone reported the same thing in Discord. Join there to download it (not sure when I have time to upload it on the site).

And to everyone talking about the home page ads. The problem with those is that they seem to be country specific and use the same layouts as the normal videos (and to mess it up, not just one layout but multiple). This makes it so I can't just block the layout because then the whole home tab would be blank :D.

I've used VPN to get some of the ads but I have no idea if those are what everyone gets. And those ads seem to be delivered in the same protobuf message as the videos so I don't think that any adblocker like adaway etc. can actually block those. My guess is that if you don't get those ads, you are just lucky that youtube doesn't send them to you.

I made that 13.49.52 nonroot with new kind of adblocking and hope people test and report if they still get ads on that. So far I don't remember anyone reporting so. People using the rooted version can install this nonroot alongside the rooted one and delete it after testing.

---------- Post added at 23:44 ---------- Previous post was at 23:31 ----------

Hey, I totally understand that the non-root one is ahead. I was just misdirected when someone suggested I try a newer version, and it was the version number of the non root one. I wrongly assumed they knew I was on the plain root non magisk one, thats all.

As for Host blocking, maybe thats in part why I do not see ads (as well as what Vanced is blocking), as I have always run a custom host file currently built by a script , although not via adaway. I think I have about 10+ sources (but mostly small).
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
Currently testing it now. For me, the ads are gone on the new experimental version, while the latest magisk version still has ads. :good::good::good:

I'll keep testing for a while to see if it's just a fluke or something. Thank you for the update :)

Oh good so I'm not the only one experiencing casting issues.

Hi guys I want the know which is controlling the resolution the YouTube resolution from general settings or the Vanced video resolution settings.. When I chose to have hd resolution from the general settings on YT will it override the Vanced settings or is that the opposite? What should I focus on? I need to always have hd resolution when on wifi and 320p on data.. thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Why not use both? Choose hd for wifi and 360p (probably you meant that when writing 320p) for mobile on vanced settings and uncheck hd for mobile on general.

About your question: easy to test. You have 2 options on each. So you have the ultimate option to choose and try. If one overrides another, then it is what you need to focus on.

But as far as your setup goes, you will not lose abuthing if you chose your option in both general and vanced settings.
