New update to 15.05.54 has been released! =====================
What's new?- Updated Vanced to YouTube v15.05.54.
- Auto subtitles has been replaced with Live Captions
- The old mini video player has been removed (Google removed it completely 😢)
- Whatever bug fixes Google made to YouTube over the past 9 months :P
---------------------
Things to note:- Magisk installation is no longer supported, the Magisk and root installation method are now the same.
- The installation methods for non-root and root have changed, look below for a tutorial.
- MIUI users installing the non-root variant will need to follow a special installation guide (check below), because Xiaomi has fucked up MIUI (in classic Xiaomi fashion).
---------------------
Known issues:- Auto repeat is not present in this build. It will be fixed on Feb 30th.
- Accessibility button toggle is removed due to it being broken. Will be added back later.
- Chinese ROMs (MIUI, EMUI, ColorOS, etc.) have broken PiP (usually). It's advised to just disable PiP for Vanced entirely if you use those ROMs.
- Some tablets will get a force close immediately after opening the app. Not sure what causes this issue.
=====================
NON-ROOT INSTALLATION GUIDE:1) Install MicroG
2)
Install the SAI (Split APK Installer) app3) Select the .apks file you downloaded
4) Click "install"
ROOT INSTALLATION GUIDE:1) Disable APK verification using a Magisk module or similar app (
this module works on Android 9 or lower)
2)
Install the SAI (Split APK Installer) app and enable root mode
3) Select the .apks file you download
4) Click "install"
NOTE: Yes, a certain warez app commonly associated with the color yellow can achieve disabling APK verification. But if you mention the name of said app in the chat, I will also verify you get your speaking privileges revoked.
MIUI INSTALLATION GUIDE:(aka the "haha MIUI is such a garbage ROM you have to use a special snowflake installation" method)
Option A:
1) Deactivate MIUI optimization in Developer Options (this can delete all permissions for apps).
2) Open SAI and check that "signed APK" option is disabled and proceed with installation of Vanced (follow guide above)
NOTE: If you can't install, check if original YouTube is installed. You need hibernate or disable the app until installation was completed.
Option B:
1) Install Shiziku from
https://shizuku.rikka.app/ following all instructions carefully
2) enable Shiziku Mode in
SAI3) install Vanced like you would on any other phone (check instructions above)
Option C:
(How to install the new Vanced via ADB)
1) Download the .apks file
3) Extract the .apks file (it's just a ZIP)
4) Rename the
YouTube_15.05.54_API21(nodpi)(vBlack-v2.1.0)-vanced.apk
to
YouTube_15.05.54_API21nodpivBlack-v2.1.0-vanced.apk
5) Run this command while connected to your phone:
adb install-multiple YouTube_15.05.54_API21nodpivBlack-v2.1.0-vanced.apk config.arm64_v8a.apk config.xxxhdpi.apk split_config.en.apk
NOTE: If you want to install a language other than English, add it at the end of the command (for example split_config.de.apk)
If you're on Dark, instead of Black, replace Black with Dark in the command.
5) Install MicroG manually on your phone
