Hi,
I can't find Vanced FAQ in the playstore (in French country), where I can find it now please ?
Thank you very much for your answer.
Looks like the Vanced Guide was pulled from PlayStore.
I do not know if it was Team Vanced or Google.

Vanced Guide - PlayStore - Link
You can find the page on web.archive.org - Link

---

At the end of MIUI instructions (link from the OP).
Miui Installation Guide - telegra.ph - Link

There are links to more Telegraph pages.

Not the app but, maybe one of the above links can help. ?

Cheers. :cowboy:

Can I use the oldest version of vanced and microg? I'm using an outdated android box and it can't run the latest version of vanced without crashing, freezing, I was using an older version and it was working OK, since I upgraded everything got messed up.

How far could I downgrade? any suggestions?

Interesting indeed. Even if you go to the Vanced Website:

scroll to the very bottom and press Need help, it links to the no more existing VancedFAQ page on Google Play

My devices:

I don't know the solution, since I don't cast, but I know it has been discussed here OFTEN that casting does not work, at least in later versions.

If you uninstall them and use Vanced Manager to install, it should give you a choice of available versions. I don't have any particular issues with the latest version, but recommendations have been made in this thread regarding prior versions that don't have specific issues.

According to op info, casting a video to a smart tv will not stop ads because it will be the tvs youtube app that handles playback and hence ads. That's very clear and makes good sense.

Has anyone found any method to bypass ads on a Samsung smart tv? Sideloading a custom YouTube version for example? I don't even know if this is possible, that's why I'm asking

You can try SmartTubeNext, it's been mentioned here before and I use it on my android TV boxes, it's pretty decent

Hello. So I'm not sure best place for this, but YouTube pollutes my feed with dumbass videos that are between 15 seconds and 3 minutes and I hate that kind of Tiktok crap. I think a great vanced feature would be to filter videos in the feed by length. Like I don't want to see any videos less than ten minutes long and that sort of filter would get rid of 70% of the retarded manic ADHD microscopic-attention-spam BS that YouTube thinks I am dumb enough to like.

Hello all. I recently got a Galaxy S21 Ultra the other day and tried to install Vanced on it but it doesn't want to work. I went to the official sources for Vanced and followed the prompts for an nonrooted phone.

When I first got Vanced and tried to log into my Google account it got stuck on the agreement page and wouldn't move pass that. I uninstalled it and tried again a few times. It still wouldn't move past the agreement part. So I went to bed.

The next day I tried again. This time I got passed the agreement area and was able to log into my Google account. But as soon as I logged in YouTube Vanced would flash open then instantly shut down again. I tried it several times after that and it kept doing the same thing.

So one help link I found online said to remove your MicroG Google account from accounts section and disable regular YouTube. So I did that and I could at least open YouTube Vanced at that point. So I tired logging in again and it instantly closed again. After trying that a few times the app wouldn't even flash open. So I uninstalled everything, including MicroG, and started over. Sadly that didn't work either. I even tried installing older versions and the app won't open. Someone on Reddit suggested I try and older version of MicroG but I can't find an older version that doesn't come from a super shady source and the Telegram support that was suggest didn't work either.

Can anyone help me out?

    Mod Edit├┤Closing note. YouTube Vanced lives on in ReVanced (not affiliated with Vanced)├

    ‼️Before asking or posting anything, please read the first and second posts.‼️

    Always check the official Vanced website or XDA thread when downloading. Other sites are fake, contain advertisements (possibly even malware), and have older versions.

    Vanced Banner-01-01.png

    Vanced is a well-known modded version of the YouTube app with many features such as ad-blocking and background playback. Vanced also offers some extra features to enhance the user experience. The entire list is available below:

    Features:



    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

    Since YouTube v14.41.52, Google has moved to split APKs format. The Android package installer doesn't support Split apks yet, so we are now using Vanced manager for installing all vanced apps. The steps to use the vanced manager are below:
    Especially for MIUI, there's a separate guide that can be accessed using this link. For all other devices, please follow below:

    For Non-Root:
    1. Install Vanced Manager
    2. Open Vanced Manager and tap the blue arrow in the lower right corner.
    3. Begin installing Vanced microG. (Without which you won't be able to install Vanced (or Music Vanced) or use login)
    4. Then install Vanced (or Music Vanced), log in to your account and enjoy!
    For Root:
    1. Install Vanced Manager
    2. Open Vanced manager and tap on the "Magisk" icon to grant root permissions.​
    3. Once you are in, begin installing Vanced (or Music Vanced).​


    Important information:

    • We replaced our root installation with vanced manager, which directly mounts vanced on top of Youtube in the /data/app directory, making it easier and faster than before.
    • Vanced will not block ads while casting since when you use the casting feature, it doesn't send the video from your phone to the Chromecast/TV. Instead, your phone acts like a remote controller for the youtube app in your Chromecast/TV. That is why the advertisement is displayed.
    • Purchasing items in the non-root version of the app will not work as microG doesn't support it. Hence, it is preferable to use the original YouTube app or using the web version for any purchase.
    • If your videos are lagging or the application starts to crash while watching live videos, please enable VP9 codec from codec override present under vanced settings. Google forced the ExoPlayer v2, which is highly experimental and unstable on unsupported devices.
    • YouTube has dropped support for Android 5 (Lollipop) with v17.xx.xx. Hence, the minimum supported version is now Android 6 and above.


    Known bugs:

    • Swipe down gesture for refreshing home feed breaks randomly. It's an issue with litho that only Google can fix. There's nothing we can do to fix it. (Tap here to learn more)
    • As of v16.16.38, casting won't work due to an upstream microG bug. (Tap here to learn more)
    • On portrait/vertical videos, preferred quality options do not work.
    • Swipe controls triggers when swiping either upwards or downwards to scroll through description or in live chat when in landscape mode.
    • On new action bar layouts(server-sided feature), the new toggles won't work.
    • Info cards toggle is broken (Temp fix: Disable it through your Google account settings. This setting disables info cards everywhere.)
    • App crashes with java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError while playing some video outside of vanced.
    • Manual codec override is broken and very experimental.
    • Some users might face geographical ads on YouTube Shorts tab.
    • SponsorBlock segments at the end of videos in playlists causes playback on the next video to start where the previous one ended.

    BUG Reports:


    Steps to do before reporting a bug:
    1. Do a search and see if it has already been reported
    2. Check that the bug is actually a Vanced bug and doesn't happen in the original YouTube.
    Steps to do when reporting a bug:
    1. Make sure you are being enough descriptive of the problem.
    2. Take a logcat (Google search if you don't know how). Especially if the issue is a crash.
    3. Taking pictures of the problem doesn't hurt.
    4. If the report is vague (missing information), it will most likely just be ignored. If you are not going to show any effort in resolving the problem, why should I?
    Bug report template:
    1. Vanced exact version number (Do NOT say latest).
    2. Download link used to download Vanced.
    3. Installation method (whether user SAI or Vanced Manager)
    4. Device.
    5. ROM (optional may not help).
    6. Any applied Substratum/swift overlays.
    7. Logs if there are any crashes/force closes (upload to Pastebin or hastebin or katbin) and paste the link of it with your report. [Check here to know how to get logs]
    8. A brief description of the issue
    9. Any installed mods to the system.
    10. Test your issue on the stock youtube app

At the time of writing this post apkmirror lacks apks for arm so you will have to wait a while until it has them and then we will be able to make arm root builds.
