Just reminder since the migration to new xda url deleted the latest posts:

Most ReVanced apks updated with the latest patches.

*YouTube updated again today so users who already updated, download and install the new update again.

Since yesterday, my revanced app crashes whenever I try to open it.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
No issues here. Updated fine as usual.

Try clean install and make sure you have microG working.

Yesterday's ReVanced update fixed thumbnail scrolling problem, no error so far, everything worlds well even without clean install.
[Android Apps and Games] gpvecchi:
Gapps are not needed for root, right?

It still asks for me to install them.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Needed, so to have GMS.

If you have custom ROM without GApps, you need microG.

I have problem using Reddit ReVanced, it seems like it can't let me loggin in. No problem using chrome, so it's not reddit itself. Anyone else? Tried doing clean install but the problem it's still there

Hi,

I'm having trouble installing Revanced using Revanced Manager with root privileges. Could you please help me?

I've had my Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G M2101K9G for roughly 2 years, since I bought it brand new in a general electronics store, so it wasn't hurt by any mobile operator (in terms of carrier branding). A few days ago I finally said goodbye to MIUI, unlocked the device (after waiting 168h for xiaomi tell me what) and installed LineageOS 20 version 20-20231001-NIGHTLY-renoir strictly following the official LineageOS guide. I also installed MindTheGapps recommended by the guide, and in the way the guide recommended. I assume Google Services are working fine, as Play Store, Drive, Gmail, Maps and other Google apps work flawlessly.

Once I settled up in LineageOS, I installed Revanced using the non-root method, involving Vanced microG, and it worked fine. Today I discovered that microG consumes 11% of battery on average, so I asked uncle Google about that, and I read it's normal. I uninstalled microG, YouTube and Revanced in order to set it up again with the root method to avoid using microG. I also removed the files and directories mentioned at step 2 in the OP:

I managed to install Magisk and I think it's working properly, as I was able to grant root permissions for Terminal app, so to use the "su" command and remove the remained files associated with YouTube and (Re)Vanced. I also granted root access in Magisk for Revanced Manger.

Then, following the instructions in the OP, I got stuck at step 12:

Just before, I installed YT version 18.32.29 as currently recommended by the guide, and I picked YouTube app in Revanced Manager to patch, but in the next step I couldn't see any "Default" box at the top left of the screen. There's just Patch button in the bottom right corner.

I guess this is why I can't see "Install as Root" option anywhere then. By pressing "Patch" button, I can only pick between Install or Merge. No matter which one I choose, it installs the allegedly patched YouTube, and when I try to launch it, I only get the message that Vanced microG is not installed.

I'd appreciate any help, and if you need any further info, please let me know so I will provide you with.

Cheers!

Guys can someone help me .revanced manager keep on crashing since this morning in all of my devices and can't update the app .what can I do?
[Android Apps and Games] zgfg:
Why don't you install RVx as a Magisk module and you can update every day (if you wish) by a two clicks: to download/install the update and then to reboot.

Links in the OP post #1
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Use microG and non root build.

Otherwise if you want root version and have GMS in ur ROM, use Magisk modules.

I never noticed any serious impact on the battery cause of microG but anyway:

- If you are patching using root method, you need to uninstall and clean the directories from previous install as you may already did.

- Proceed with the Guide.

- Then you need to tap on the box which says "Selected patches" and select the patches you want (there is the default button I am talking about in top left corner) exclude microg support.

- Then patch and install as root.

But seriously just uninstall everything, clean the directories and install any of the Magisk modules & Detached module. It's easier to install & update and preferably. The upcoming new ReVanced Manager will use Magisk modules as I read somewhere in their Discord and also will not need extra detatch module. The current root patching is not "good".

Well this is started randomly? I never faced this.

Did you tried to update ReVanced Manager?

If you did and that doesn't solve it you should clean install the Manager and hopefully you have backup of your current manager keystore otherwise you will have to clean install and revanced too.

I installed new 18.38.44 version over old 18.32.39 version. It was installed and worked without any fault. Thanks for the update.
[Android Apps and Games] Asifahmad:
Why there is no subscribe button in yt Revanced version 18.38.44?
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
There is. You probably messed up your settings. Try clean install.
[Android Apps and Games] Asifahmad:
Can anyone share 18.38.44 version ss with subscribe option?

I patched it with revanced manager latest version.
[Android Apps and Games] Spannaa:
The toggle is under Settings > ReVanced > Layout > Navigation buttons
[Android Apps and Games] Asifahmad:
FIXED

A "Hide subscribe button" setting was turned on by default.

Settings>ReVanced>Layout>Shorts Components>Hide subscribe button

It may be under Shorts but it works for the whole app
[Android Apps and Games] Skeuomorph:
The latest regular Revanced update did fix the whole thumbnail preview issue, as well!

Thank you so much for your hard work, @Retrial , the Manager just won't patch YT on my phone for some reason, so your pre-made apks are an absolute godsend! Ευχαριστώ πολύ, αδερφέ!

Maybe this is my case.

the latest has issue when "upgrade" on both apk and module. I have to perform clean install to make it done.

ReVanced or RVX? Do you use my pre-made apks or yours?

My apks are signed with the same keystore. No need to perfom clean install.

@Retrial Greetings of the day! I had a quick question about the Duolingo app in the folders containing precooked apps. It opens fine but doesn't let me login. Is it cooked through revanced patches? Any guidance is appreciated.

Duolingo no longer supported by ReVanced Team. I will remove it from the folder, thanks for reminding it to me.

ReVanced Extended YouTube & YouTube Music updated with the latest patches.

Simplified the Informations of builds at post #2.
[Android Apps and Games] GreenDotBlue:
I just today noticed that Revanced can unlock pro features of Lightroom. Interesting. It would be nice to see more pro unlock patches for different apps. Maybe should start to practice to make patches?
[Android Apps and Games] MarkLev:
Could you please tell the differences between this fork and jhc fork? More features added?
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
J-hc builds "Revanced", my fork is based on "ReVanced Extended" (RVX) which has indeed some more features (check OP of this thread).

At the moment I'm not sure if I continue that fork, it's a bit of stop and go because inotia00 works on RVX alone and has stopped development several times.

Maybe ReVanced is the better choice but there are a few features I'm missing.

I will post it here if a new release will be published.

At the moment I'm still working on it.
[Android Apps and Games] MarkLev:
Thank you for all the hard works!

Checking j-hc fork I also see "ReVanced Extended" was release some times, although not as regularly as your fork which is a big help to me.

Could you consider changing the initial screen icon to j-hc custom one? It's subjective but I think the icon is more beautiful than the youtube official one.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
This icon is not j-hc custom. It's from Revancify which is also picked as default icon of Extended and in my opinion is kinda ugly. :sick: I prefer MMT icon for Extended.
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
@MarkLev

Normally I use the standard YouTube icon, maybe a clean install will fix it.

But as said above, I'm not sure to continue the RVX module. I changed from RVX to REX, stopped building after inotia00 stopped providing patches and started again.

It's always complecataded, in most cases a clean install is needed.

I will give it a last try but I think it will be better that magisk module users should switch to the ReVanced module by J-hc.

I'll let you know.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
y as I said many times, I don't see the reason to use RVX nowdays. Regular ReVanced has everythng you need to enjoy youtube.
[Android Apps and Games] MarkLev:
@Retrial

I disagree. Why would inotia00 continue to develop "ReVanced Extended", and people tend to like it more?

Anyway, do you have the MMT icons to use with NovaLauncher? Why MMT not in the info page?

@Wolfcity I though inotia00 have merged Rex patches into Rvx patches. So, basically it is now one big Rvx patches.

Retrial prefers the MMT initial screen & icon and he changed my mind. I like it more than the Revancify ones. None of us prefer the standard youtube icon.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
I don't understand your question about regular revanced.

inotia00 develops Extended not regular.

Why they "like" Extended? Because they are used to it or maybe because they see "Extended" in the name and they think it's better, to me it's really bloated with unnecessary stuff. Extended was useful back then when some patches were missing from regular revanced, nowdays regular revanced is more than ok and clean.

One more reason to switch to regular revanced, is the unstable development by inotia. He discontinue and continue the project a lot of times, releases untested patches which he has to "fix" his "fixes" with other releases. Make a lot of confusion to the end user.

I am not against inotia00, he can do w/e he wants, in fact I was stable user of Extended for a long time, but with recent unstable development and with the uncessary patches/bloat and with the improvment of Regular ReVanced, I don't find any reason to keep using Extended. Also remember ReVaned is a whole team, inotia00 is alone, soon or later he will stop again.

I don't have the icon but search "kazi MMT" in google you may find it.

ReX forked RVX when inotia00 "stopped".

ReX stopped when inotia00 came back. (Tbh rex dev was already ready to stop before inotia come back)

Now, if you want Extended you go for RVX.

As I said, a lot of confusion with Extended project....
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
That was, on the whole, I wanted to say. Thank you.

As I said above I'm still working on RVX but I think it's a marginal group that wants RVX as a module.

The majority uses APK's as far as I can see.

Nevertheless I'll be willing to fill that corner as long it's not too much work as I'm testing "ReVanced original" since a few days and I'm missing almost nothing.

As said, when I get working releases I will post a message here.

ReVanced YouTube & Youtube Music updated with the latest patches & integrations.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
I believe you can run premium on revanced without an issue.

Try the non root version which is simply an apk.

If you go for root, use Magisk module otherwise don't get in trouble.

There is no difference, root version doesn't need microG but since you already have installed microg then there is no difference.

Isn't it the same youtube version? In that case we lose all our settings trying to update as we need to uninstall the old app. Right?

I installed new version without deleting old one. No problem. You can install over it safely.
[Android Apps and Games] dj24:
Phew. Noob here gain. It took me well over an hour to figure out how to download Revanced and get it to work but we all start somehere :)

Few questions... On my Galaxy S23 Ultra after my successful install:

- Do I toggle scan apps with play protect back on?

- Do I leave All files access toggled on for revanced manager for future updates or do I leave it off until the next update and then turn it back on?

- Do I toggle off My Files (downloads), Revanced manager and Chrome in the Install unknown apps section of my settings?

I just want to make sure that my S23 Ultra is locked down tight and protected but at the same time want to make sure that I'll be able to update re-vanced without any hassle in the future as well.

Appreciate everyone here. I'm learning a lot (slowly but surely) from everyone here..🙏

[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Hi, congrats 🥳 It's not that hard if you follow a guide and understand the process, then u will do it with closed eyes 🙈

I don't know how Samsung behaves for third party apps since I don't own a new Samsung device, but in my device I have Play Protect always on without the need to disable it.

If you have Play Protect on, when you trying to install revanced at first times, it will false alert you about risk. You can simply bypass it with the option "install anyway" which has there. I believe it's due the signed keys, after few installs/updates it will stop alert you.

To perform a future update, you will need to do same process as you did:

Check if new ReVanced Manager apk it's available. If it is download it and update it.

Download latest supported youtube version -if needed- from apkmirror.

Put the apk in manager, select the default patches -if you know what you are doing disable/enable patches you don't need/need (but keep always the patch about microg if you are using non root version)- and patch.

Then install it over the current version.

So yes you need to have all files access toggled on for revanced manager, I can guarantee you it's not harmfull and it's totally safe. The project is also open source so the more experts guys who looking at the code, wοuld hit the alert button if they would detect something shady.

Chrome install unknown apps not needed but it's not harmful either if you don't download random apks and install them via chrome.

The permission needed only if u download the revanced manager apk and tried to install it via Chrome. You can simply download the apk and then go to your file Manager and install it from there but again you need that permission in your file manager.

I hope all the above covered your questions.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
The youtube version could still be the same but patches getting updates/fixes. Youtube version no need to be updated everytime.

Also you don't need clean install everytime, I have to do clean install for months, simply install it over the current one.
[Android Apps and Games] dj24:
Thank You for your detailed explanation. I'm not very computer savvy but I'm getting the bug and getting better at it every day.

In all fairness the instructions on the first page mostly went over my head so I used the Revanced guide for dummies that I found and used below for my unrooted Galaxy S23 Ultra :

https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/xlcny9

I downloaded everything straight on my phone using google chrome and currently have:

- MicroG: ver. 0.2.27

- Revanced Manager: ver 1.12.1

- Youtube premium: ver.18.38.44

I hope all the above are the updated versions?

For future updates can I go straight to Revanced Manager and update the app or do I need to go to my S23 Ultra's google chrome and download it to my file manager? If I ever need to do the latter- how do I overwrite the new version over the old version?

I think I understand how to download the Youtube apk. and install it from my file manager. The only question is do I need to delete the older version from Revanced manager before installing the newer version or should I not worry about that and just choose the newer version which will hopefully overwrite the older version and then just patch it from there.

Thank You :)
[Android Apps and Games] RBTYT:
After installation, YouTube complains about the absence of Vance MicroG. I already wrote above that I have root and I have MicroG, but MicroG is not from Vanced, they are built into my firmware "LineageOS for MicroG". Should I install the Magisk module or can I somehow configure the MicroGs I have?
[Android Apps and Games] shaglord:
Thanks!

I was unaware that updating to the same version was possible. I know that downgrading isn't possible without wiping all the settings.

Hi everyone.i dont know if that happens to some of you but download the new version of youtube from AndroidFileHost ok install it just like the new version of revanced manager BUT the new version of microg services doesnt not upgrade it when i try to install says package is wrong open Yt says microg not found so i download again the microg from AndroidFileHost that last time upgraded was on march.what is probably wrong with microg services???
[Android Apps and Games] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:

[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
You don't need to update microG.

All Vanced MicroG are EOL but working fine.

Some guys made new versions of microG (not based on Vanced MicroG) but better stick to Vanced MicroG either from old vanced or from inotia00. Both working fine.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
So YouTube version is not the important part.

Patches & Integrations are the important and doing all the "work".

Usually you can find the recommended youtube version on the patches changelog or in the "suggested version" at ReVanced Manager.

Ok let me explain how you can update.

Let's say you currently have installed:

ReVanced Manager which you used it to patch YouTube and installed ReVanced & microG.

Now if you notice that ReVanced Team pushed an update in GitHub, you need to patch the YouTube app again with the same process.

You manually go and check if new version of ReVanced Manager is available and if it is download it and install over the current one. Simply press install on the apk and it will overwrite the current one.

Then open the ReVanced Manager, put the recommended youtube version and select the default patches and patch it. When finish you can export the apk if you want and press install. It will update the revanced app you already have installed without losing any setting.

Do not uninstall ReVanced Manager otherwise you will lose the signed key you used to patch the app and it will generate a new one when you try to patch again and it will cause incompatibility between your patched apks.

Please also check the OP (the first post #1 of this thread) "How to update" section.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Well then you need extra microG -vanced microg- but since you are rooted, just download the unofficial Magisk module and use that.

Root = Magisk

Do not mess with manually patching root version of revanced.
[Android Apps and Games] WhoIsJohnGalt1979:
Need some guidance :) Have been patching apps using the manager since the last year or so (rooted), now want to use the j-hc modules. From what i can see, the magisk module has a base.apk and the youtube.apk. So do the steps look like this?

1. Stock Youtube app info - uninstall updates - delete app data - disable app

2. Flash magisk module?
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
If you already used a root version of revanced make sure to uninstall everything related revanced.

Then it's important to go and check these directories and delete too, otherwise you will have issues.

Then reboot your device and flash magisk module + detached.
