I have smarttube installed on my firestick and cast from my S23 ultra without any issues if you're open to a different alternative..
[Android Apps and Games] Jumbo100:
A couple of possible issues to resolve that are not directly related to ReVanced.

- Your Fire HD8 (Gen 12, 2022) only has 2/3 GB of RAM and 32/64 GB of internal memory (depending on model). If you are getting "out of memory" errors when installing apps, you may need to uninstall some software to make more room for any new installations and/or updates. Also consider "hibernating" apps that are not immediately needed to free up working RAM. Fewer active apps should improve your tablet's performance.

- Gen 12/13 Fire tablets running versions of Fire OS 8.3.x prior to f/w 8.3.1.9 had had various comparability/incompatibility issues with YouTube (and its derivatives) . Substantially improved with f/w 8.3.2.x (and later). Latest f/w 8.3.2.4 .

- recent versions of Fire Toolbox have had issues recognizing some sideloaded APKs which have been coded for multiple different CPU IDs (per screenshot) . Try sideloading necessary microG APKs directly.

Otherwise, ReVanced works well on Fire tablets, when configured correctly.
[Android Apps and Games] n0naxwafu:
Is smartube not working anymore?
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Not related with ReVanced but last time I checked, it was working.

I will re-check at night when I am back at home. Note that I am using the beta version which get regular updates often.

[Android Apps and Games] Alexcxvtr:
Hi.

I'm trying to install Non Root Revanced Manager to my Android 10 Head Unit, but when trying to load YouTube apk inside Revanced Manager, it crashes all the time.

First, I installed Gms Core, then Revanced Manager (following the Guides), turned on Allow Patching Selection, but then it crashes.

Same thing happens to Revanced Extended.

When doing these steps, I have internet connection on.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm using Revanced successfully in my S22 Ultra.

See screenshots, please.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
If you follow the same steps and worked on your S22 Ultra then the issue is not with the steps or the guide.

The issue should be with the device you trying to patch.

Please do the same steps on your S22U and export the apk (you will see the export button after the patch is complete) and then transfer and install it on the device which you can't patch and see if it's working.
[Android Apps and Games] Alexcxvtr:
Which apk?

Inside Revanced Manager I can see Export Keystore and Export Patch Selection, and none of them export in apk form.

Could you be more specific, please?

Edit: Oh, you said after the patch installation is competed. I got it.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Use your S22U which where the patching process working fine as you said.

When you done with patching you will see the export apk button. (Check the screenshot attachment below).

So, export the apk to your storage and then transfer that patched apk to the device you want.

Otherwise you can just download and use my pre-made apk in my MEGA Cloud. (Link at OP)
[Android Apps and Games] Alexcxvtr:
Thank

Thank you, sir!

I'll try your pre-made apk first.
[Android Apps and Games] imonxda:
@Retrial I'm not trying to be a pest, I know I've asked about this before, but I still don't understand why a root RevYT apk cannot be made excluding the MicroG patch with the same package name as official YT, then install that RevYT apk on top of the official with same version as an update, or install it straight some other way like SAI, and end up with root Revanced YT without using Magisk?

Again, if I'm annoying, just tell me :)
[Android Apps and Games] soler37:
Anything?
[Android Apps and Games] pratik_193:
@Retrial - any way to patch windy app with latest v4.11.0-dev.4 revanced patch.

Edit - i tried using the revanced manager, but i guess dev patches needs CLI
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
There is a root patching guide at OP. You can follow this if you would like to patch it by yourself.

But it's more convenient and easy to update by using Magisk modules.

With one or the other way, in the end you will have to use detach magisk module, to detach the app from Play Store, so what's the point to not use full modules and have free your mind? 😋
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
I will update the apps when they public release.

I am not patching with dev branch because things may change.

When everything roll out as stable release, I will update what is necessary don't worry ✌️
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
I am not ignoring you, I just stopped using Extended so I don't know what's going on there.

If none else reply to you about the community feed not being hiding, try to ask on their telegram. It may be known issue.

With a quick search I did, I found other guy reported that. (Screenshot attached below) I guess you will have to wait for update by inotia00 if he fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] soler37:
Wow thanks alot, may I have a link to the telegram?
[Android Apps and Games] imonxda:
Well, my problem is I can't seem to do it myself, I can do the patching for the latest YT, but I always fail when I try to patch for And5 and And6-7, and I have 3 old devices with And5-7 that cannot install Magisk because I have Multirom installed and installing Magisk means I can't use Multirom - on one phone I have 132 roms installed and working great in an ongoing hobby project that I've been slowly bulding up for the past 8 years!

So I would really like to have root RevYT without Magisk - but I can't do it ...:(

I have a new-ish tablet with Magisk and I have installed the Magisk module and that works great and it was so easy to do, but that tablet has crappy speaker sound and isn't as cool as my multirom phone with multiple OSes to choose from, killer sound, with all kinds of cool mods and old apps that are not available anymore and can't run on anything modern anyway - so ya, I'd really like to have root RevYT for both And5 and And6-7 without using Magisk. I can use the non-root of course, but then I have to have MicroG and will always be subject to Google doing something to block Revanced and this back-n-forth with devs and google - the root version is always solid. Maybe I sound like a spoiled brat crybaby, I hope not.

If some one could provide built root RevYT apks for And5-7 (without MicroG patch), I can use UpdateLocker (which works great even on old roms) and I can find ways to replace the official YT app packages with RevYT, or install RevYT like I have been for so many years since the YTBP days.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Everything is available at OP. Check Wiki section.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Root apk version of ReVanced cannot be made by others (aka pre-made root apk) and share to you to use it. You need to patch it by yourself and mount via the Manager with root permission. Otherwise use the Modules which working with Magisk/KernelSU etc.

If you don't have root then as you said use the non-root version with gmscore. If you don't want use your main account just create another one to use it as "burned email". I personally don't have any serious problem with non-root and I use it on my main devices since the beginning. Once in a while an issue may appeared but devs will find ways and fix it kinda fast.

I think you complicate simple things.

If you don't have root and you don't want to root, you can't magically have root version of revanced. You have to adapt to as things are.
[Android Apps and Games] imonxda:
I understand and agree with everything you said, except that last part. Thanks for taking the time to read my long explanations and for doing all you do for us. :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
If you find a way to get rooted revanced to work without root let us know 😋

I am not aware of any way to get it working like that.

However, I patched for you A5 and A6-7 YT ReVanced Extended without "GMSCore" patch. Check attachments below.
[Android Apps and Games] imonxda:
That's what I meant when I said I didn't agree with that last part, I never said I was trying to get root Rev without root, but rather with some other root not Magisk. "Now you makin' fun of me?" quote from Shark Tale :)

But thank you so much for making these APKs, you SOOOO cool!! I tried many times to make those and they either don't install, or the Rev Manager fails to compile, or I can't get the correct patches with CLI - every time I tried I failed, so thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
Hello beautiful people!

Thanks to this amazing thread I have found multiple answers over the time.

Currently I'm facing issues installing YT revanced on an old car android headunit.

Specifically, I do not know which version of original YT to patch.

My device is an ancient android 8, rockchip based piece of crap, that will take forever to patch an original apk, hence I cannot be trying different versions of original YT apks to patch, or I could just try once, if I knew which one to patch on the headunit.

Some details of the device (as found using HW info) are:

platform: rk30board

android: 8.0.0

kernel: 4.4.93+

supported ABI: arm64-v8a- armeabi-v7a

openGL ES: 3.1 build 1.8

google play services: 24.21.13

etc..

other info can be provided in necessary.

The device is also rooted with some ancient Magisk version, which must never be updated.

TL/DR: I'm asking which YT version to patch on the above mentioned device

Thanks to all
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Since your device is Android 8, I guess you will be able to patch the latest supported version like you do on your phone. Link of the specific version in my guides at OP.

You can also try my pre-made apks if you don't wanna patch it in your device. Also remember if you are going to use non root you need to install GMSCore too.

Otherwise if you have Magisk root and you can update it, you can also use the revanced modules along with the detached module, to detach the app from Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
The device has no issue running the official latest from the store.

My issues -I believe- come from something wrong with GMS. I will try cleaning up junk folders from previous installations. Gonna try your pre-made apks on that attemp.

Unfortunately, updating Magisk will break the device (custom pre-rooted ROM on it) so gotta go with non-root approach.

Thanks, a ton!
[Android Apps and Games] Ellins:
Just finished updating gmscore and revanced couple hours ago. Quite disappointing that now revanced/ReX cannot play HDR video without root.. Any workaround ?
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Currently both spoof clients have No HDR videos.

You can track here when and if gets fixed: https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-patches/issues/3208
[Android Apps and Games] Ellins:
Ok..thanks. btw I'm wondering why HDR is unavailable on iOS client.. Is there actually no HDR feature in iOS ?? Just asking..
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
Quick update after yesterday's trials:

Pre-made apks did not work. Installed GMS and your apk, youtube launches, I see the launch logo but then crashes and keep crashing on the background.

Now I need to try patching on the device (which takes maybe 30' to complete due to low specs), what exact version would you advise to try with, based on my OS/hardware?

My Magisk is v.17 and I am very hesitant to update, due to instructions of the ROM developer not to do so, cause it would lead to bootloops.
[Android Apps and Games] trevtdogg:
have you tried to use the revanced magisk modules? not sure if it matters or not how old magisk is for that to work.
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
I guess I could.

Should I remove completely GMS first?

Any specific version module/apk I should use?
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
Remove everything, GMS, APK.

You can use the module by J-hc:https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module

He builds ReVanced and ReVanced Extended (when patches are available)

But I'm not sure if the module is running with Magisk 17...
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
Thank you mate.

Could this cause a bootloop if wrong version?

Should I also patch latest official YT on the device and install as root, after installing the magisk module?
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
These are workarounds, "spoofs", to fix the current buffering issue which some users face. These spoofs have some side-effects due of the nature of them. Devs trying to fix most of them.

It's not the actual clients, of iOS for example, which HDR on iOS working fine (as I am aware of).
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
If my pre-made apks didn't worked then I am not sure if patching by yourself would change anything unless you install it (mount) as root from Revanced Manager with root permissions. But if you going root way it's better to uninstall everything and go with Magisk module.

Follow this guide. I hope the Magisk version you have support Zygisk, you will need to enable it in settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
All ReVanced Extended by inotia00 apks, have been updated with the latest patches v4.10.1. Everything is already uploaded at my MEGA Cloud. Guides and Links updated.

Please let me know:

Do you like stock YouTube icons on Extended or custom MMT? I am thinking to change everything to default stock yt icon.

Do you like to include the community translations patch? I was always excluding it, since I believe English is the most accurate language to describe some of the revanced settings and to make sense. Also some languages may not be complete 100% and half are on English and half on your native language and plus some may have mistakes due of your translator.
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
I believe something is wrong with GMS leftovers. Will need to investigate this before moving to rooted approach.

Either way, much appreciate your time to respond and overall effort in this thread, keep it up (y)
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
What error you get? Or it just force close without error? Can you take a screenshot or something?

Try to disable or uninstall the stock YouTube if you have it installed.
[Android Apps and Games] tsavman:
I just a generic crash error right after launch. I get to see the YT loading logo before the crash.

Will try grabbing a photo.

Stock YT was of course uninstalled and device rebooted.
[Android Apps and Games] zgfg:
RV(X) Magisk Module installs the patched app for you, you do not patch and you do not need RV Manager.

Do not mess with them in parallel

Please read the OP post
[Android Apps and Games] Wolfcity:
1. No.

2. No. (And as @zgfg posted above: There's nothing to patch!) Just download the module,flash it and reboot.

Btw, imho Magisk 17 has no zygisk and other stuff, so it may be not possible to flash that Magisk module.

But that's something @scrubjay55 (J-hc) could answer.
[Android Apps and Games] shaglord:
Hey fellas

I'm interested in enabling AV1 software decoding in RvX or Rv. I see there are two AV1 settings under "player" but they don't do anything to enable AV1.

You might ask, why would you want to enable it? I have lousy internet and AV1 allows me to go up a quality level without getting more expensive internet. I have a solid cpu in my phone that can software decode youtube AV1 at 1440p without dropping frames. (In the chrome browser)

I know it'll heat up the phone and waste energy. I'm only interested of doing it at home hooked up to a power source, watching on my big external monitor. But even if I wasn't I think it's a nice feature to have in the app.
[Android Apps and Games] NaabKing:
Even tho i don't use my Android Phone in English OS version, i would stil use Revanced in English, because troubleshooting is much easier (following guides which are in English also) and i hate half translated stuff :)

So even if you decide to add other Languages, i hope we can get to choose default YouTube Language (and that it wouldn't use the Android/Phone one).
[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Probably I won't include translations for the reasons I and you mentioned.

I just want to know if it's better to use stock YouTube icon like in regular ReVanced instead of MMT in Extended.

So users of Extended, let me know what you prefer for my pre-made apks.

Excuse me.

I have YT Official and YY Revanced Ext (inotia) both installed. I need the Official to casting to TV, sometimes.

About your Notes:

I tell you that my Official YT display Thumbnails on Seekbar in v19.23.

you can still use casting with revanced / extended.

just for some reason the default settings are for the cast button to be hidden.

if you dig through the settings, you'll find the option to enable the casting button again.

it's frustrating that this is turned off by default (at least it is for all the magisk modules versions I have tried so far).

It seems that blocked forms from g00gle.

Stock Youtube icon? Are you serious?

[Android Apps and Games] Retrial:
Casting working properly only in Root version/Modules.

On Non Root version, It has a MicroG limitation, it has nothing to do with the patches. That's why the root version can cast just fine (because it doesn't use MicroG).

Casting to a different device won't remove ads, as they're served from the youtube app from the device.
