If you read previous posts (not cancerous ones about thumbnails) you would see it is possible to detach. So you have several options:

- report properly about your setup with steps and responses you get

- read thoroughly so that you dont miss points

- try to do by yourself

In last option your posts will be dismissed and you will not get a response

Use the previous version of Youtube Vanced.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
That one is even less updated than latest one

:laugh::D

Just read what is written in thread without posting please. You will get more answers and confuse less users

ok to all the people how wants to detach and dont want to use edxsposed - sudohide for some reason

1 remove the youtube module

2 get the root version (the one you install via twrp) and the installer

3 inside the installer there is a config_files folder in there theres a ytva_detach_from_playstore.plz file

4 put the ytva_detach_from_playstore.plz and the installer and the youtube vanced app in your download folder

5 boot to twrp and flash the installer

this will install youtube vanced as a system app and will create a magisk module called youtube vanced detach how will run a script to detach youtube vanced from the play store every 3 minutes and might cause your play store to crash from time to time.

no need to hang your self it's easy.

(sudohide is better)

when I install the magisk module nothing happens

same old yt app

Go into YouTube on the play store and uninstall updates.

Make sure you disable auto update for YouTube coz if it updates it will replace vanced
[Android Apps and Games] Davy49:
Hi,

I'm sure not trying blame anyone for anything... especially any of the developers. I'm once again trying to get the vanced app to work function correctly on my amazon fire 7

(2019 edition), I've had it working properly in the past. This is what I've done so far to try and get it working. I do still have the regular version of youtube installed on my tablet, I downloaded micro g & the latest version of youtube vanced non root version installed. I've cleaned the cache of the regular version of youtube. Then I restarted my tablet, I did install micro g first, I then started the you tube vanced app and I tried to sign in to my google account. At first I thought it was going to let me, but after several seconds I still received the error message message that the google servers couldn't be reached. I really enjoy using the app when it works properly. At this point I don't know what to do next.

[Android Apps and Games] scoobyjenkins:
Try uninstalling micro g and Vanced, reboot and install again. I'm guessing official YouTube didn't come pre-installed as it's an Amazon device, may be worth getting rid of that too.
[Android Apps and Games] Davy49:
Hi,

Thanks so much for your reply, and you are correct in assuming that the actual youtube application didn't come pre-installed on my tablet. This is what I've already done to try and fix my issue: I uninstalled google play services & re-installed it, I deleted both the cache & data from the following services : google.. google play services.. google play store. So I'll try what you suggested: uninstall micro g & vanced , and see if that solve my issue. Also, I just now remembered that I use the dnsfilter application to block ad's while I'm browsing the web, that could also be causing the issue. I'm enclosing a link to the app if you want to check it out : https://f-droid.org/en/packages/dnsfilter.android/. I'll let you know what happens after I do that, the good thing is that I've had the vanced youtube app working correctly in the past, I'm trying my best to avoid doing a factory reset on my tablet.

David :)

Quick Update:

This is what I just got through doing:

I deleted cache and data from:

Google, Google Play Services, Google Play Store

Then I :

Uninstalled Micro G and Vanced Youtube

Then I:

Rebooted My Tablet

Then I:

Reinstalled Micro G and Vanced Youtube

Then I:

Temporarily Disabled the DNSfilter application

Then I:

Tried Signing Into My Google Account

But much to my dismay.. I still received the notice that it couldn't reach the google server's,

please try again later.

This is so frustrating, knowing I had it correctly in the past.. now I'm really considering performing a 'dreaded' factory reset on my tablet.?

samsung s9 DBT Dual Sim. U7DTAA . android q. Vanced non-root.

since i updated my phone to android q the app crashes randomly after using it for hours. after the initial crash i cant start the app anymore cause it crashes immidiatly. removing micro g fixes the problem. but instaling micro g again repreduces the error. i have to remove micro g AND vanced and reinstall them to fix the problem. but its anoying doing this several times a day. i have a log file. is it save to post a logfile publicly? im asking because the app asked for root permission.

and suddenly the problem fixed itself...WTF. pleasde contact/quote me for the logs

I'm on Android pie and facing a weird issue from past one month or so. I used vanced and disabled my default YouTube app but nowadays YouTube got enabled itself why?

Everytime i have to disable it:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] Davy49:
Hi,

I agree about having alternative app's available, but at least for me I'd have to agree with this forum member that the vanced app is what I consider to be the best ! Having made that statement, I'm still having the issue of not being able to login to my google account on my fire 7 2019 edition tablet. What bothers me the most about that is knowing that previously I was able to do so. It seems that part changed after I performed a wipe cache function in the recovery area, I never would have thought by doing so that it would have affected my logging to my google account.

David
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Agree.

But cleaning the thread doesn't show users how they should actually report. They end up with unanswered posts and get enraged each and each time by coalescing with other new thread users. And even though it is not directly violation of rules to not report correctly, not searching before posting is. And those users don't search before posting because all their questions have been answered and we cannot check which answer is suitable to them because we have NO information at all about their setups.

And whenever we report a post that is asking a question (with no info) that is already answered (or just asking ETA, which is also prohibited), it ends up in "no action needed - post not removed" and both a) the post stays in and b)poster is not getting informed on what to do next time to get a reply on the post. This is what is wrong. I know that Logan is one of the mods and he has a post in OP. Please [MENTION=6841137]Logan[/MENTION] I ask you to provide a checklist for bugreports (root/nonroot, version number, device info including software, if seeing ads, whether in homescreen or inside video and etc) in your OP post with FAQ; I can write a template via PM if needed. Leaving many unanswered posts in thread makes users question whether thread is alive or not (mostly new thread users). If there was a post with such a checklist, we could just forward them to that post without making a new post each time for each "new thread user" asking same question over and over. That would make stuff simpler and from what I have observed for last years in development - when you ask users to submit a proper bugreport with logs - voila - the bug gets fixed by itself (I have statistically significant results with n>300).

I hope this will be executed.

Cheers

[MENTION=4598795]Eleo[/MENTION] Though I'm sure you mean well; that's not how the XDA cookie crumbles. Our intention is never to punish people just because they ask a question while they may be unaware of the rules. Sure, they agreed to them and we want users to search first but people are people and they make (sometimes many) mistakes. Now let's show some love in this thread and tolerate one another a bit more :)
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
To get some kind of tally of what people are having issues with, could you start another thread with a "poll"?

Or maybe, Vanced needs an FAQ thread started, for the questions that keep getting repeated. Such as ETA's/reasons for no constant updates, "I see ads",detach fails (PS: I have a new system that has stayed detached for > 48 hours thus far... but I think it may an issue with auto updates of other apps, but "update all" works fine)

[random thought]we could really cut down the number of silly ETA posts, if they had an automated system that built a new Vanced with an incremented version number automatically, every time YouTube was updated;) no changes, just a version number increment[/random thought]
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I think one post in first page is enough. As I said on my previous post:

You can add questions to FAQ as:

Q: I see ads in vanced. What to do?

A: If you see ads in homepage, those are region-dependent and cannot be removed. If you see ads inside video while using magisk module of Vanced (obviously other than "sponsored" parts given by content creators inside their own video), then check whether you are still using Vanced or have updated to standard YouTube in playstore...and so on...

Q: When will this app update?

A: This app already gets updated from

You see? Such post would make stuff much easier than answer every "I see ads" post with questions "where you see ads? Do you use nonroot or magisk?" to help user.

I am aware that this is not how XDA works for last couple of years.

But the issue is not punishment. Issue is understanding the problem to help user. If user says "I see ads in YouTube!!!" you need at least 2 question-answer posts to understand what he uses and where he sees ads. And this was already discussed in this thread maybe hundreds of times, which means we need to spend extra time for no use to help the user.

Or

We can leave the post to rot and not answer it. But this means user will not get help.

Or

We can report each such post with desire of removal. Which will also not help user.

So, the optimal solution to get rid of cancerous posts is making a usable FAQ with bugreport checklist. That was my suggestion overall.
[Android Apps and Games] Davy49:
Hi,

For those who might have missed seeing it, there is in fact faq that can be found here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Vanced/wiki/faq I've found it to contain just about everything a person that has a question about the app would ever need.

There are also times when attempts are made to assist but user has no response thereafter and we (at least for me) whether that user may have other issues since the v really was usually based on assumptions if insufficient info is available (never mind that user did not even search).

Seeing the words of that beatles song sure brings back many great memories to me. I myself have been doing a lot of reading on the reddit vanced site.

Trying to install the latest nonroot version with SAI and it always says that it can't be installed because it conflicts with another app with the same name.

Really strange because I've unistalled the previous version and rebooted with no luck.

I'm on Android 10 galaxy note 9 of course not rooted

[Edit] Problem solved. It should be stated in the instructions that you have to disable "sign apks.." in SAI options in order to install Vanced.

Thank you for the so long-awaited update

Hello, thanks for the continuous support.

May i ask which technical changes forced the introduction of the new install method?

If i remember well, for apps installed on /system partition the signature was always valid for login.

Was it a google server change?
[Android Apps and Games] lekiaM:
I can confirm. Disable sign apks in SAI.

Edit: After installing, SAI App can be removed it won't affect Vanced. Its just an installer.

My procedure:

* Uninstalled old root version of Vanced with Root Uninstaller (at playstore)

* Rebooted Device

* Installed SAI app from PS

*Installed MicroG non root from Vanced Site

*Opened SAI app>disable 'sign apks'

*Installed Vanced Black Non Root

*Profit.

I want to thanks the whole Vanced Crew for their hard work, time, efforts etc...

Happy user here! :svetius::angel:
[Android Apps and Games] GoDLiKeRiK:
So if i have MIUI, no root and no access to computer (adb), every time Youtube Vanced is updated i need turn off MIUI optimization to install and then reapply all missed permission for apps? That's epicly lame... maybe in the future somebody find solution. Anyhow -- thank for the long awaited update!!! Very glad to see.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
Just uninstalled previous vanced apk. Installed SAI. Installed apks file downloaded from vanced.app site using SAI. Didn't change anything in microG (didn't even uninstall it) as it is same version. Opened newly installed vanced and voila! Everything works as expected. Both my accounts are active in microG as it was before. Tweaked settings of vanced the way I like and I am happiest person now.

Thanks very much for the update!

[Android Apps and Games] Logan:
Just for init installation once app is loaded signature verfication can return to original

Normal yt apks are discontinued since specific version 14.48 if not mistaken then they moved fo fully split apks and new server verification keys which we dont have
[Android Apps and Games] GoDLiKeRiK:
Successfully installed on my Mi Max 3 Global Stable (Android 9, non-root, no mods). Temporarily disabled "MIUI optimization" and installled SAI. Maybe you should go to their telegram channel for installation instruction specifically on MIUI and redone everything. They have 3 different instructions on MIUI. Maybe you done smth wrong or your Android/phone version is lees compatible, idk.

The SAI keep running for 20 minutes and nothing happen.

I use the root version .

I assume that's not possible to manually install the YT apk and split apks to /system/app like not splitted ones. Or yes?

The new Installation method is too complicated, why it has to be like that? I stay on the old version.
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
It has already been mentioned on the last page. Try reading the thread.
[Android Apps and Games] KevinX8:
That method only worked for apps signed with v1 and YouTube is now signed with V3 and also yeah split apks are properly verified for signature Aswell.
[Android Apps and Games] G1ML1:
Tried to install rooted black VYT with microG didn't work (app crashes on sing in), however unrooted works.

Are there big changes between these two?
[Android Apps and Games] xell75:
I managed to install it now, what was funny it just installed the new version like an update to the already installed old YT root version that was already present and it worked. Do I have to enable signature verification again? Or leave it disabled since I guess I need to use this method for any future installs.
[Android Apps and Games] Vaizen:
Hello guys. Again thanks to the team for this awesome work.

I don't know if it's just me, but since my note 9 got upgraded to Android 10 when using picture in picture mode if I open any other app the video and sound have a 1 sec stutter/pause.

At first I thought it was a version 14 problem or incompatibility with Q, but I've updated to vanced 15 and the stutter still happens.

Let me know if anyone is facing a similar situation.
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
WARNING for root version users!

This may be an old article but it's still worth reading. People should understand that disabling APK signature verification has security implications. And so does installing the (Ed)Xposed framework.

I see OP is still in need of a refresh. [MENTION=8983809]Team Vanced[/MENTION] perhaps add a disclaimer while you're at it? ;)

Also, perhaps more importantly,

avoid the app with the yellow smiley!

It is damaging to developers, to this community and likely even to your device. Anyone using that app to disable verification is on their own. Zero support will be given here. Only use one of both modules to achieve this:

Smali Patcher - With Android 10 support (Alpha)

NanoDroid - No Android 10 support

If anyone knows of any other methods (except the app mentioned above), please share so we can get a list into OP.

Don't forget to re-enable signature verification after installation of Vanced is completed.

Alternatively, go for the completely safe option: non root!

I don't fully understand why they switched to the SAI method as I've already seen non-split APK's of this version out there. I do see the non-root APKS file is built just like root version so it's likely faster to adapt both versions in case of an update. MicroG and non-root installed just fine, adding my account was a breeze. A ton of thanks for this update! Still hope to see the Magisk module return one day...
[Android Apps and Games] Istvan_86:
I update to Android Q on my OP 6T from scratch and when I go to install Vanced through Magisk module just to discover that it get discontinued and thread closed. First of all really thanks for all the work put in this module (hope devs can read that here :D)

Now I´m trying to download the latest release as [MENTION=6841137]Logan[/MENTION] told us but I can´t reach vanced.app, is temporarily offline and we can download it soon? Also I´m reading at least the last 50 pages of the thread, I´m a bit confussed with the new install process and something called "SAI" and signature verification, I know how to disable it with Smali Patcher but for me it´s a mess finding proper info. Is there a good tutorial in vanced.app?

In any case, thanks again for all your work.
