[MAGISK]YouTube Vanced [BLACK/DARK/WHITE THEME]
This is the official magisk module for YouTube Vanced, more details can be found HERE
The module can also be found on the magisk repo (Usually not updated due to reasons)
Anyhow the download links can be found in the post below
A run down of the features:
What's in:
  • Completely redid video ad blocking. (This is a much better, faster and simpler)
  • Background Playback enabled (This is also a simplified mod)
  • Enable/Disable background playback via Settings
  • Force VP9 Codec option for better video quality and lesser bandwidth usage (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Override Max Resolution Limit (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Set Preferred Video Quality (for WiFi and/or Data) (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Enable/Disable Info Cards on videos (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Enable/Disable Suggestions Cards on videos (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Enable/Disable channel branding watermark on videos (Settings -> Vanced Settings)
  • Enabled "pinch to zoom" for all devices
  • Casting working with all features (no ads on external devices not guaranteed)
  • File names + installer adjusted to the new "vanced" mod naming
  • [Optional]Detach YouTube from playstore for magisk users
  • White/Black Themed versions

What's Fixed:

  • Blocked all video ads
  • Blocked all layout ads
  • Redid Background playback
  • Fixed "Save Offline" feature (only works in regions where it is supported, more info #2999)
  • Fixed all known issues in themed version

If you have youtube already pre installed to system remove it completely or at the least uninstall updates.
Make sure to always use the latest version of magisk to guarantee compatibility with your device.

Thanks to the following people for making this project possible:
@Razerman for finding out the methods
@laura almeida for themeing and doing test builds
@ZaneZam producing and a bit of ad-nuking and doing the main releases

So... This is installed through Magisk module or TWRP or either of those options? And does it have the message of "this os an unofficial version..."?

Thank you so much for continuing this module for magisk.

I immediately downloaded it and installed it thru magisk but the YouTube app seems untouched.
I'm on the latest for me available YouTube build (12.45.56) , also the installation thru magisk 14.0 was successful.
Before installing the zip thru magisk I deactivated the YouTube app, that right? With the previous zip from the discontinued magisk module everything went fine, but now it seems there was no effect at all.

Does someone have an idea?

Awesomesauce! New shiny thread looking all fancy. Dedicating a thread to a module that is now in official rep makes perfect sense, of course. One little thing: ZZ's profile isn't properly linked under contributors. Any reason why "Automatically parse links in text" was turned off?

There is a bug in Magisk Manager that sometimes it doesn't properly flash.
Try the following
Disabled YouTube
Install via TWRP
Reboot
Enable YouTube

The contributors to the project are those who have helped to create the project. The Primary Author, Contributor 1 and 2 will also be able to edit the project, including managing Downloads. They must match up to an XDA Username. The Additional Contributors field is meant to give credit to other parties and is a plaintext field and does not confer any project administration rights.

I couldn't decide who to leave as a contributor with no power so uh since he has the root thread I thought it was only fair :p

Perfect I just uninstalled all previous modules on magisk manager then flashed latest version via TWRP and everything works superb.

Just one final doubt. Does it block updates or will it update to the "official" YouTube app when there's an update?

Well I can't disable automatic updates only for YouTube app. There is no 3 dotted icon just the search button.

Guess I'll have to disable automatic updates for all apps.

Or is it possible to Detach?
