Did you already install microg for youtube vanced to log in to your YouTube account or you haven't yet? If you are watching a video which requires to know your age or whether you are bigger than 18, you will need to sign in to your account.

[Android Apps and Games] marcdw:
Nougat is supported of course. I also use Vanced on Lollipop and Marshmallow so that's not the issue.

Are you using any themes? I won't pretend to know what I'm looking at sometimes but I noticed drawable issues when Vanced crashed.

There have been some posts where folks were getting crashes due to Substratum overlays (compile fine but meant for vanilla YT, not Vanced). If you don't have themes then I'm not sure.

Hi guys i use on my Mate 20 Youtube Vanced Non-Rooted v13.50.52 and all notifications are enabled but i dont get any notification from the app for new videos and such any help please
[Android Apps and Games] Chelssy17:
If possible add the special permission draw over othe apps

I'am using custom ROM Resurection Remix v5.8.4 7.1 on redmi 3(ido)

VLC player can play background with video,the youtube vanced last version only pop up in my notification bar

I hope will be added the next update

This my sceenshoot
[Android Apps and Games] Datastream33:
Yes, I have installed Microg. Also I don't think it's an age requirement issue. I get the error on EVERYTHING in the app. Videos don't load, settings won't load, etc. It just keeps telling me to login. I've tried removing my account and re-adding it and still a no go.
[Android Apps and Games] zilexa:
Can a developer confirm the Chromecast issue? How can I provide logs? I asked two persons to install Vanced (they never heard about it and got excited) both complained Chromecast icon is missing.

As mentioned, the regular YouTube app does show the Chromecast icon.

I tried resetting the Chromecast. Made no difference. I tried the Chromecast 2018 and the Chromecast Ultra.
[Android Apps and Games] k2828:
s9 starlte Lineageos 15.1 no notifications. notifications where working on stockrom 8.1 oreo
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
It's known. One of the developers responded a ways back, even mentioned a workaround.

It's been suggested, by some, to start casting from a different app (or even another device) then take over with vanced.

If you use the non root version, you can keep regular yt and do your casting with that. Vanced doesn't block ads in Chromecast anyways so ..
[Android Apps and Games] emanuelntb:
Hi Guys

I've been using this app by some time now, and recently I changed to a Lenovo K5 play and the notification bar mini player characters are light gray (didn't happen on last device). I'm using stable version.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Probably something in Lenovo firmware then. Unless you used a different version of Vanced? Or the new device is on a different version of Android. But manufacturers change things that can affect colors in apps
[Android Apps and Games] marcdw:
No need to go that far. If you had a YouTube overlay enabled, just disable it and see if Vanced runs. Hopefully that should be it.

The only themes that I recall stating support for Vanced were Flux, Linear, and Valerie. nineteen and edge have just added support but I believe those are for Oreo & Pie.

Moto G5S Plus XT1806, OmniROM, microG (NoGapps), MultiROM, XDA Legacy
[Android Apps and Games] KevinX8:
From my personal testing every substratum theme for stock youtube works just fine for Vanced of the same version number as we don't change the resource layout so there should be no reason why a theme wouldn't work. Of course this is regarding the root version, non root version would require support for the changed package name.
[Android Apps and Games] EMP83:
No notification and chromecast not working on S9 plus, non root, microg installed, android pie stock.
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
Yeah, I've noticed the Chromecast issue before here, here, here, here, here, here and with some others. Pretty much the same deal with notifications.

Seems to be evolving around a lot of Samsung people so either Vanced is just coincidentally popular with Sammies (can I call them that?) or there's something structurally different in Sam's UI layer that disturbs these functionalities. Seen some Pixel reports too though.

Why don't you guys just root? It's surely worth it and I've not had any issues with rooted Vanced iterations for years. Oh right, I forget.. Only us OnePlussies (and Pocos!) retain warranty when doing so *mean giggle*.
[Android Apps and Games] AndroBuddy007:
Hey man, not just Pocos, even normal Xiaomemes like me also retain our warranty!

I liked the way mocked at those repeated same reports by users.

Afaik, and in my experience, people who buy Sammies are the non-geeks and ones who just buy phones for the sake of buying. They don't think much before buying, and rooting is by far, a very far fetched idea for them.

And yes, Sammy ui is bloated and heavily modded(even more than miui), and so it might be causing problems.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
samsung users are reluctant to root because it permanently and irreversibly kills some useful features.

I'd rather not lose my secure folder.

Bug Cast to Chromecast

vanced after latest update, non-root, with MicroG installed, on Samsung5sNeo,

not working properly the cast for chromecast. when I push the cast button it says "linked" but no cast happen!. actually I need to launch official youtube and start the cast to the chromecast. then i've to push the cast button on vanced to cast the video.

cant collect a log cuz there's no actual "error".

thank for your job, it's great!
[Android Apps and Games] Timmmmaaahh!:
Hello and welcome to XDA!

Please read 4 posts above yours or click here in case your scroll wheel is broken.
[Android Apps and Games] Kajino:
tHX! :D

I've read the post 4 rows up about notification.. but it's not a matter of notifications...

it's about connecting to chromecast =)

last week it was working fine, infact i had official yt disabled.

now when i click the cast button and select my chromecast... just nothing happen :(

...actually I read all the suggestions in the post u mentioned. but still no workaround on how to solve ^^;;

I've also tried on a rooted s5mini(stock)... but still have the same issue.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You seriously think that post was about notification? All the here, here links are about Chromecast. Try casting from a different app, then take over with vanced. If you're not rooted then you should have stock yt as well. Cast from that. Vanced doesn't block ads in Chromecast anyways

And what he meant by reading the post was, you don't need to report it anymore. Not that those posts solved it. It's a known issue.

Another "report" doesn't do anything but clutter the thread.

If we removed , even 50% of the Chromecast "reports", we could probably cut 50 pages out of this thread.
[Android Apps and Games] Logan:
Xfilein and i don't have any issues with Samsung so he can't find a fix for something isn't broken?

Seems like device maintenance get vanced killed? Or maybe the users hit clean all widgets most of the time , vanced Should be listed in unmonitored apps so it can function IMO, Regarding the chromecast i am not sure been rocking non root and root versions since they came out
[Android Apps and Games] Kajino:
there was a plenty of posts about notifications etc. ...then I've read all the posts about (here here here etc) chromecast issues.

asking in the vanced's telegram group.. I learned it's a known issue from the last week... and there's no solution for now. (I guess something changed in the chromecast)

so I'm just doing as u suggest.. taking over the cast with vanced from another cast app.

I know it doesnt block ads in chromecast... but I disabled YT in my stock to have everything in a single much confortable palce. :fingers-crossed:

I will just wait for a better solution / update / new world :°D

Doesn't rooting with Magisk allow you to bypass root detection by Samsung Pay?

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

Fixed the issue I was having. I uninstalled YouTube Vanced and installed a previous version. Everything seems to be working fine. I guess I'll just miss out on a few features.

no Samsung pay wont work if you install magisk as to install magisk you need to unlock your bootloader which trips Knox which Samsung pay relies on

Running latest YouTube Vanced through magisk.

Device reboots occasionally when going to full screen from PiP mode.

LG V30

Android 9

Havok 2.1

Magisk 18.0

Device doesn't reboot straight away, the screen turns off. But touch is still active.
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
I see you are rooted. You will need to provide boot logs (e.g. proc/last_kmsg for reboot issues) for your ROM dev. Those are mainly related to custom ROMs (I see you are on Havoc2.1) rather than custom apps. If there was app issue, you would see app force close (i.e. FC). But if you see a reboot, it is most probably ROM framework issue.

[Android Apps and Games] Maru1:
Same, not working.
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Share some info, like

Are you rooted

Phone and Android version

Type of Vanced install (root, non root, magisk...)

Version number of Vanced (preferably with a screenshot)

Anything helpful to pinpoint what's up.

Which ads? In-video ads, or the one on the home page? The ones at the beginning of videos (that you have to wait to skip) should never appear on the Vanced app. Are they on the phone in vanced, or on the device you're casting to?

Just noticed you said on the phone.

First, make sure it didn't update in the playstore. If it didn't, and video ads are actually appearing in vanced (if you're rooted) I'd love to see a log from when that happens.

If that phenomenon is reproducible, grab a log when it happens bro.

[Android Apps and Games] AmoghUpadhyay:
I'm on MIUI and there's no such global option to turn off accessibility settings, there is option to switch on/off accessibility settings per app like Talk back and it is already off. I think we're having a misunderstanding here.

First of thanks for such nice app. There are 2 bug's on this app. 1. Losing Internet connection ( huawei p20 pro and samsung s7 edge ) 2. When playing playlist in background, music control stop working. Can not jump to next music but can play and pause only. Plz fix it thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Eleo:
1. No issue here. On both samsung note3 and xiaomi mi a1. No internet connection issue. Remove battery optimization from the app.

2. No. If you actually play from a playlist, you will get those music controls. See my attachment.

All of them are in place. Check if it is blocked in your region from YouTube/Google by using a VPN
[Android Apps and Games] Grumpy Cat:
Beating a dead horse, but has anyone figured out a good solution for the casting problem that doesn't require using both Vanced and the stock YouTube app?
[Android Apps and Games] m.younusrahman:

2. Okej now i understand. Thanks again.

I installed the latest version of Vanced and microG.

I get no icon in apps for microG so I used a shortcut creator app to get into microG. When I tried to sign in, I was told the account already existed on my phone. I had to create another account in order to log in (as the only other option would be to unlink my main account).

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
With the non root version of Vanced YT? Not likely.
[Android Apps and Games] legojoe8:
I'm using it right now and I didn't Install microg before I signed in and set the app up
[Android Apps and Games] Anonaru:
you sure you don't have MicroG from an older / different app on the phone already? Are you sure you're not just using your normal Youtube app? I have essentially an identical device to yours, and account functionality ceases instantly when I disable or uninstall MicroG, even on the newest few versions of Youtube Vanced. The app simply doesn't have the ability to authenticate with Google Services otherwise, which is why people are having a healthy dose of skepticism towards your claim here
[Android Apps and Games] legojoe8:
I did have the older microg for ytbp but I was certain I uninstalled it with the old youtube vanced before I got the updated version
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
That's what I figured. We're having all of this discussion and you haven't even checked to see if it's installed or not. Probably causing questions and doubts in less experienced users. And the simple fact is, you need microG with the non root version if you want to sign in. Whether you're rooted or not.

microG is a modified version of "g" services. A smaller (or micro) version of g, in this case, modified specifically for Vanced YT non root.

I think we can move on from this now.

[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
Yes. It will simply replace stock YT with Vanced. Which is exactly what you want it to do. Or if you don't have stock YT installed (used a very small gapps package which didn't contain YT) it will install it (Vanced YT) as a system app.
[Android Apps and Games] Love Dhir:
There is some problem in signing in
[Android Apps and Games] J_M_V_S:
Elaborate please...
[Android Apps and Games] madbat99:
You said you wanted to flash the root version, is that what you did? There should be no issue signing in. Do you have gapps installed on your phone?

So is there an actual fix for the sign in issue, or do you just get lucky by chance?

I have nonroot and micro g, and sometimes vanced works, sometimes it askes for me to sign in, and I cant.

Ive tried everything, clear data, uninstall, reinstall. Problem still pops up.

Any real fix for this, I'm ready to give up on vanced because this is super annoying
