There's a magisk module that allows you to do this? Works fine.

Hey guys, I am at work so I don't have much time to provide more information. Will provide logcat ect
..when I get home. When I go to cast to my TV. App crashes. I want to make sure it isn't something on my end first or something I themed breaking it. I was using black and gray (no dpi) latest arm 64 version. I also made some changes to the theme so I want to make sure it's not that first. Could someone test chrome cast?

I'm running 12.29.56-vanced arm64 (RedBlack) and tested casting to a Chromecast, Nexus Player and MiBox with no crashing. Just to be sure I've tried the GreyBlack and NonThemed versions and no crashes there either.

Hi,

Since flashing mod does not work for me, could someone write how to install it manually, please? I would really appreciate it. Is it necessary to delete old version of youtube before? Thank you ?

P. S. I tried to read through this topic, but haven't found anything useful.

External devices like Chromecast or Roku use their own internal YouTube app. Your phone just tells it what video to pull up, so it will still have ads.
My trick is to stop casting and re-cast each new video, because it never plays ads on the first casted video.

Did you read the op?

Instructions
YOU WILL NEED ROOT FOR THIS!

First step: UNINSTALL EXISTING YOUTUBE if you have it. Recommend using one of the many system apps Uninstallers that you can find on the play store, or a file manager that can delete from /system/app

Using your phone:

Download the APK for your cpu architecture
Use a file manager to place the APK in an empty folder, so it contains only the APK
Use a file manager that can write to /system (i.e: has root support) to copy the folder that contains the APK to /system/app
Use the same file manager to set permission 755 on the folder that contains the APK and permission 644 to the APK file itself
Reboot
Enjoy!​

no version for api16 arm ?

The only api16 version available on APKmirror is x86. If it's not on APKmirror then it won't be available here.

Download the latest version 12.29.56-vanced from Post#2 then see manual install steps in Post#1

If you moved to system/app, no need to flash anything.
If you choose flash method, just download the APK into download folder and download vanced installer. Boot to recovery and flash installer. It finds the APK and installs it

I believe you can make minAPI16 nodpi version of arm by downloading the Youtube_12.29.56-1229562700_minAPI16(x86)(nodpi)-vanced-vp9-backgroundplayback.apk and Youtube_12.29.56-1229563300_minAPI21(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)-vanced-vp9-backgroundplayback.apk. Then take out the libraries from armeabi-v7a and put them in the x86 one (delete the x86 libraries).

I haven't tested this but I don't see why it wouldn't work. If it doesn't, someone please tell me why it won't

I made one for testing, if someone wants to test (root version): Youtube_12.29.56-1229572300_minAPI16(armeabi-v7a)(nodpi)-vanced-vp9-backgroundplayback.apk

Hi!

I installed "Youtube_12.29.56-1229563400_minAPI21(arm64-v8a)(nodpi)(red-black-v2.6)-vanced-vp9-backgroundplayback.apk" with "MOD-arter97-youtube-vanced-installer.zip" and this is what happens when I try to open YouTube: Link

What can I do in order to get it work?

You can disable substratum, clear YouTube data and restart

Red-Black and Grey-Black versions have missing video titles in the home tab, other tabs are fine. The titles are just blank, only emojis show up. I tried another google account and it was fixed, but for the account I want to use it's broken. I'm using the 12.29.56 arm64 version on nougat.
