[MODULE] Inject YouTube

[Sugarfreee]

Try toggling the setting off and back on.
Then close YouTube and open it again.

Cheers.

Edit:
Attached screenshots from a random video.
First showing just likes, second showing the dislikes also.

thanx, now it's working

Well, how should i say it...

No worries.

I mean, what's the point of this verification? Even if such verification presents, Youtube and all of it's functions will still work, no? What's the point then?

During boot, installed apps are checked and the newest (verified) version is loaded.
If the app fails verification it will not be loaded.

In the case of system (pre-installed) app(s), if it fails verification..
System is read-only so it can not be deleted (removed) just disabled and not shown in the launcher.

Updates to system app(s) and user installed app(s), if it fails verification..
The failed app is disabled and deleted since userdata is read-write.
Might not be fully deleted, instead only partially deleted preventing it from being able to be loaded the next time.

---

Example:
Since manufactures often include YouTube in their stock OS (ROM)..

If the pre-installed (system) version of YouTube is v15.18.39.
Update (install) from PlayStore or manually install v17.41.37, the update is installed into userdata.

v15.18.39 is unloaded and v17.41.37 is loaded at the end of the install.
During boot, both v15.18.39 and v17.41.37 are found, the newest version (v17.41.37) will be loaded.​

Update (install) from PlayStore or manually install v17.43.36 is installed into userdata.

v17.41.37 is unloaded and v17.43.36 is loaded at the end of the install.
v17.41.37 is deleted (removed) from userdata.
During boot, both v15.18.39 and v17.43.36 are found, the newest version (v17.43.36) will be loaded.​

Replace v17.43.36 with a modified version that does not pass verification.

During boot, both v15.18.39 and v17.43.36 are found, the newest version (v17.43.36) fails verification and will not be loaded.
It will fallback to and load v15.18.39 instead, also deleting the failed v17.43.36 version.​

If there is no pre-installed (system) YouTube, or it also fails verification, then no version is available to be loaded.
The failed version in userdata is still deleted.

Better help (explanation) or did I make it more confusing.

Cheers.

First of all, I have to say that this module is the only way (as far as I know!) that works really well for me, so thank you, you did a great job! And second, is there any chance you'd make a Revanced Extended version? Tbh I don't mind to do it by myself as long as the procedure is easy enough for a total noob as myself

Thanks in advance!

I have been debating about it.
Not sure if there is a good reason to switch iYT/iYTM over to the extended repo.

There are a few other changes to this project that I am still deciding about.

Should I bring YT and YTM together into one project or keep them separate?
Should I drop the "black" themed version of YT?

It would make merging iYT and iYTM into one project easier.​

Is there a good reason to switch to the extended repo instead of the main repo?​

Cheers.

Edit:
As of now, the "black" themed version is depreciated.
Changes in the YouTube's theme makes it redundant.
See Post #91 in the ReVanced & ReVanced Extended - Guides & Useful Links thread.

Better help (explanation) or did I make it more confusing.

It's awesome! Thank you very much for your time and explanation.
Guess, oneplus with it's oxygen 11 isn't affected with such a problem, dunno about their latest oxygen color os though.

Should I drop the "black" themed version of YT?

Imo - yes, haven't used custom blacked version since google added night theme to YT
And if it helps you in some way - then it's double yes.
Btw, long live spotify, except you guys like to watch vids along listening to music, heh.

Hi all.

Just a few notes about the last updates.

---

Inject YouTube is now a single module.

No more 'Black' or 'Dark' variants.​

- Updated to YouTube v17.49.37

Updates in the theming for YouTube made the separate 'black' version obsolete.
The 'dark' version has been the regular YouTube themed version since Google started supporting a dark theme years ago.

The module is now just named Inject YouTube.
Both the 'black' and 'dark' modules now point to the new single module.

When you update, you will see a new module installed instead of an update to the existing module.
The older version will still show an update is available since the new version is installed as a new module.
The older dark/black module will be removed on boot with the new (v17.49.37) version of the module.

No major changes in Inject YouTube Music.
- Updated to YouTube Music v5.36.51

Cheers all.

Hello,
Could I use this magisk module on android Nougat 7.1?

Hello,
Could I use this magisk module on android Nougat 7.1?

Hi.

Yes and No.

iYT Music will work with no issue.
YouTube Music v5.36.51 still supports Android 5.
- Android 5 and newer.

---

iYT on the other hand..

The module will work but, YouTube v17.35.xx and newer does not support Android 7.
- Android 8 and newer.

Looks like YouTube v17.34.36 was the latest version that will work on Android 7.
- Android 6 and newer.

Note: The ReVanced patches do not seem to be compatible with v17.34.36​

Best I can recommend (at the moment) is to use the last Vanced version.

I archived the iYTv module, but the releases are still available to download.
Vanced used split apk(s) so you will have to install the stock split apk version.​

Inject YouTube Vanced
Releases - [ Github ] - Link

Stock YouTube (Split APK bundle)
v17.03.38 - [ apkmirror ] - Link

APKMirror Installer App.
- APKMirror - Link
- PlayStore - Link

Note: APKMirror's .apkm packages are just a zip file.
You can unzip the file and manually install the split package using adb's install-multiple option.​

Cheers.

Thanks a lot for this information.
So I'm stuck with Vanced then.
Vanced isn't bad, but recently banner ads started to showing on yt homepage. I wonder what's next

About updates ( I know not ask, but this is about installing them) I'm on the latest version, all working and I've un-ticked the update box for YouTube on the play store, do I wait until updates are available as there is an update for the YouTube app on the store or do I wait untill the stock app is available on app mirror and the module is ready to be updated in the first post(or the module section in magisk) thanks.
