In general, I confirm the comment above. Vanced everything! The last video launched in the application was at night ... Now, in the morning, having closed it, watched it, tried to open a fresh one. And, writes, update. Damn, but it was a cool program, eh.
 
TEMPORAL SOLUTION
Ok, here are the steps to keep enjoying, for now, Youtube vanced:
1 Force close YouTube Vanced, MicroG.
2.Delete all data of these APK.
3 Now in a phone settings, find Accounts manager or Accounts and backups.
4 Delete Youtube vanced and microg Accounts.
5 Enjoy Youtube vanced without your account, because may be black-listed.

We hope can find a solution for this👍

I installed ReVanced per your suggestion. While downlaoding it, i also came across an application named LibreTube which is something similar to vanced manager. Do you know about this one?
It is just another alternative to YouTube, like NewPipe. It allows you to login with your account, but personally I would never login with my main Google account in 3rd party apps.

From a security standpoint and in case of hacking, there’s very little lost.

Remember, *.com, *.org, etc. doesn’t actually have your password. They don’t actually have anything but a token that allows them to confirm your identity with Google. If they get hacked, there is no actual account for your information to be lost.

I will admit I don't fully understand how these things work. But in the event that they (or someone breaking into their system) do manage to get into my account, they'll only see an empty account. 🤣

I like playing it safe by not using my main account anywhere.

Why don't you just read the last few posts?
Vanced is discontinued.
Check ReVanced/ReVanced Extended.
Download only from the mentioned thread. Most websites that provide it are kind of fishy.
You find magisk modules for both in the OP too.

'Just started getting the dreaded "following content is not available on this app. Watch on the latest version of Youtube" error about 10 days ago. The thing is Vanced would show this and would randomly start working for a day or so before erroring out again. I've seen this constant back and forth for at least a week now.

I've updated to the latest Vanced version on my S22 Ultra T-mobile U device (un-rooted) and have read the last pages of this useful thread but my question is:

Has anyone figured out why it works some days and not others? I would understand if it stopped working completely which is one thing but that obviously is not the case.

I guess I'm trying to figure out if this is something that I can figure out before considering moving to ReVanced..

Thanks!

Vanced is EOL.

You have to move to Revanced. Revanced is atleast as good as Vanced.

    Thread Closed├┤I've heard back from someone on the Vanced team and they agreed to close the thread. A huge THANK YOU to all members of the former Team Vanced that brought this project to life but also to the massive community response it has received.├

    ┤Some history├┤This project all started in February 2017 as iYTBP (injected YouTube Background Playback), based on an Xposed module called "Youtube Background Playback". According to the original dev, he just wanted to "play videos with the damn display closed.", not even realising it would also block ads for some reason. iYTBP added background playback, adblocking and some other features but soon grew to another level, thanks to the talented people that joined forces to work on the project. In November of that same year, it was rebranded as Youtube Vanced, mainly focused on existing as a Magisk module. In March 2018 it was becoming so popular, the team organised things further into a standalone project, @Team Vanced and this thread were born. While the original dev thought "maybe 100 people tops will be using it", YouTube Vanced had become the #1 YT alternative worldwide and one of the most popular projects we've ever seen. I guess the C&D from Google that eventually followed was inevitable, they were a victim of their own success. The unfortunate news reached us on page 1000 (!) in March of 2022. Of course, the resilience of this community is amazing and pretty soon other projects like ReVanced followed. I'm looking forward to what else the future will bring us and I'm hoping that Google remembers how important the development on this forum has been to them. Thank you all.├

    Can someone close this thread?

    Vanced is dead and it's starting to smell use Revanced.

    I guess that's an option. We tend to keep even "dead" threads alive (so, let's call them 'zombies'?) in the spirit of reminiscing, providing legacy support or using it (a little) for mentioning new projects that are inspired by it. Is @Team Vanced still monitored or is anyone from the team still watching this thread? @ZaneZam @Razerman @laura almeida or @KevinX8? I'd love to hear your opinion(s), you're most welcome to get in touch.

    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:

    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.
