YouTube Background and Lockscreen Playback on Realme X2 (My Boxing day Gift) - Realme X2 Themes, Apps, and Mods

You can now play YouTube in background, floating window and during Lockscreen.
Above all, it was tweaked with Vanced YouTube so no Ads and you don't have to
Root for it. Color OS 6.1 was quite stubborn because of YouTube already installed
As a system app and can't be disabled but we found a way.
WATCH NOW! HOW TO PLAY YOUTUBE BACKGROUND AND LOCKSCREEN PLAYBACK IN REALME X2 WITHOUT Root - No Ads
If you enjoy it please share because I think it will help others with stock Color OS Even in OPPO phones.

when the play store is updated. Your customized settings are being reset because google believes that we need those updates.
After installing the vanced yt, go to playstore, go to youtube, click on 3 dots top right and disable auto-update

I heard that some are facing issues like bootlooping on android 10 while modifying system apps.
I heard that Google made some changes in android 10 that prevents tampering with system apps.
Apps that manually uninstall them do that, I managed to get rid of a lot of gapps including YouTube with tweaks/ROMs like NoLimits

You don't need to uninstall youtube if you want to install youtube mod (youtube vanced), i suggest you to check the instructions properly
Even if youtube vanced is not working on open beta 1 (don't know on oxygen OS 10), this is one of the reasons why i've stayed with 7T porting from ProtoDevNan0
I've heard that deleting apps from TWRP works. Mount /system and use the filemanager in TWRP.
im pretty sure when you mean 'mod' youtube, you mean youtube vanced. You don't fully uninstall youtube in order to use vanced. You only need to uninstall the youtube updates to properly use youtube vanced. But since we're on the topic of uninstalling sys-apps and getting into bootloops, i haven't dealt with that at the moment so this is new to me to say the least.

Go to menu app manager and add apps, then you can load a file or just add the name of the package in the list. Save and your apps will appear in list
I really thank you too!
Despite MIUIMIX, there is a lot of bloatware left on the device.
Thank You for list Safe debloat list What more can we uninstall ?? Especially what applications from Google, so that the system remains stable

use adb, you can delete all apps without root.
1. adb shell
2. pm list packages
3. pm uninstall -k --user 0 <name of package>
just a question, there is any difference using disable instead of uninstall??
thanks
yes, deactivate, the application remains installed in but not functional, no activity in RAM.
Quick question guys! I have successfully uninstalled or disabled most of the apps that were annoying me in my Mi 10T. I also tried adding the default Camera app to the ones I wanted to uninstall through the "App Manager -> Add Apps" menu and it returned a warning that I might end up bricking my device. I didn't go through with it and would like to know if someone has done it without facing any problems. Should I go on with it?? I am used to using Gcam and it bumps me that I get to have a set of unwanted apps (Camera - Gallery)!!
great tool.
i just want to a add a few comments:
1. i would add a select all - deselect all in the different categories. uninstaller for example.
2. in the uninstaller you're missing quite a few apps - contacts, phone, gallery, themes,(all of xiaomi ) google news and maybe also sim toolkit and security (dunno if security is essential).
3. debloating poco launcher without ensuring you have an alternative can be a bit of a problem, so maybe a hint.
thanks for all!

When uninstall the app that is gone, and a factory reset should just cancel all user data and apps.

If the application says that it cannot find ADB/Fastboot even though you have downloaded the OS-specific ZIP, open a terminal inside the extracted folder and enter
java -jar XiaomiADBFastbootTools.jar
Waw Thank you. Im using it now
still working miui 12.5 a11 sir?
The latest released version was more than a year ago, 31st Aug 2020 TBP, why there is no updated version of this useful tool? Pls make an updated version as some app is not being uninstalled in MiUi 12.5+
Tool works with A11 and miui12.5.

[App Discussion] ReVanced, the successor to Vanced

Hello Friends,
I would like to share information about the true successor to the Vanced app. It is called ReVanced.
The project page is located on the GitHub site.
There you have all the information to build the patcher binaries(not the patched YouTube apk). Then patch the YouTube apk(must be official original apk) from the command line (instructions are there on how to do this).
Building the binaries on your own can be overwhelming for many so the easiest way is to download the "ReVanced Manager" (needs Android 8 and above). Link is on the homepage.
Unlike Vanced Manager, ReVanced Manager will not download any apk and microg (for non-root devices). It will show you the installed official YouTube version on which to apply the patch. It also allow you to specify an offline YouTube apk stored on your device which you want to patch. It will then display the list of available patches. You can choose the patches as per your requirement and apply them. Once the patches are applied successfully, you will see an option to install the patched apk as a non-root user or "install as root". My device is not rooted so I could not test it.
If you are applying patches on the installed YouTube app, then depending on the patches you choose you may get the warning saying something like "split configuration detected. The patches you choose requires resource patching, hence you may encounter some errors".
I was not sure what to do so I choose to apply patches on the offline apk.
Important: The ReVanced Manager doesn't seems to recognise .apks or .xapk extensions so your offline apk needs to be a single apk (you can get the apk from trusted site like apkpure or find a way to extract the split apk's from the installed app and merge them into a single apk)
One more thing the patched apk will not install over your existing installed official apk. So you must remove it first. I am also not sure if the patched apk will install over a previously patched apk created with the ReVanced Manager (It should be possible but I came across this project just last night and haven't really tested the various scenarios).
Note: I am neither a contributor on this project nor I am associated with them in any way. I am just sharing something useful I came across.
Thank you

You said you tried it with the recommended versions but the patched apps were immediately crashing. But did you tried to patch the recommended version as installed version or the offline apk files? If you tried to patch the installed version then did you uninstalled the app before installing the patched version? Also do ensure that the recommended app versions were original apps (no modification whatsoever)
I am assuming you are using ReVanced Manager to the patch the apps. So did the process even completed properly? If yes then how did you tried to install the patched versions? You must have got two options once the process was completed i.e "install as root" and "install". Do check the logs for any error or exception. On couple of occasions I got an exception but the patching process continued and in the end it said build success. And when I tried to install patched app it won't work. While on other occasion after the exception the manager displayed "aborting due to exception" and then it kind of stuck.
The latest version of ReVanced Manager is 0.0.28. But the most latest version I have tried was 0.0.26 and it has a broken "install as root" option. Yet to check if it is fixed in 0.0.28. You can also try using the older version of the manager (0.0.13 or 0.0.16)
If you tried to installed the patched apps as a regular user, then I think you need microg installed on your devices and you must select "microg support" when selecting the patches to apply. Though not sure but I think for non-root installation you should also select "spoof client" patch.
One quick and sure way to determine whether you are doing something wrong or missing some step is to download and install the pre patched apk on your device. For obvious reasons I am not going to share any links here. Just search for "revanced youtube apk" and you will easily find latest patched YouTube app. And of course download and install the patched app at your own risk. I will not be responsible for any mess created.
Thanks

Yeah thank you for writing back, as you have mentioned i have tried both method, i have installed YouTube and YouTube music from play store but upon patching YouTube it said that the current version is not supported so I downloaded the said version from apkmirror and tried to patch, the patch was complete without any error but the app was crashing as soon as it was launching.
About the YouTube music app the current version was supported but after patching I uninstalled the current version and installed the patch version even though it wasn't working, the app crashed as soon as it was launched.
And I don't get any prompt to install it via non-root method the app installed as regular app, though I got prompt from play protect but I disabled play protect later.
Already tried with many different versions of YouTube and YouTube music but no success.
I even tried it on my brother's phone (galaxy s9+) but no success, same results on his phone too.
But thanks man you're doing good, really appreciate your work, I'll keep trying it if you come across any solution kindly share it.
Thanks man.

I am not sure but I think the crash is some how related to compatibility issue of the ReVanced manager on Android 12 and above. Some people are having issues while trying to patch YouTube and YouTube Music apps on stock or custom ROM based on Android 12 and above.
At the same time, for others the patched apps are working fine for them even on Android 13 beta.
You are getting only "install" option after successful patching probably because your device is already rooted. I can't verify it because my phone is not rooted.
It is also possible that "install" option is automatically assuming that your device is not rooted. Thus when you are try to run the patched app, it is looking for "MicroG libraries" and it crashes when it does find MicroG installation on your device.
So I suggest uninstall the patched apps, install MicroG first then reinstall the patched apps, reboot your device and see if it works.
You can also try patching the apps on Android 11 based ROM(stock or custom) on rooted and non-rooted device and then install the apps on Android 12 based ROM (stock or custom) rooted or non rooted device.
In fact you can patch the apps on non-rooted device running Android 12+ and install it on your device running LineageOS 12.1
If you are trying to patch the apps on non-rooted device then "MicroG" support patch must be applied and obviously you need "MicroG" installed on your device.
Or exclude "MicroG" support patch if you have included it in your earlier attempts.
Also how about patching the apps on command line (you need windows 8 and above for this to work). You can download pre-build patcher binaries from the site.
For rebuilding the patcher binaries from the source you need to install other support software. Kindly go through the prerequisite software required for building the patcher from the source.
Btw ReVanced Manager app or patcher binaries can also be used to patch reddit and twitter apps.
Thank you.

Once the patches are applied successfully, you will see an option to install the patched apk as a non-root user or "install as root". My device is not rooted so I could not test it.
If you are applying patches on the installed YouTube app, then depending on the patches you choose you may get the warning saying something like "split configuration detected. The patches you choose requires resource patching, hence you may encounter some errors".
I was not sure what to do so I choose to apply patches on the offline apk.
Important: The ReVanced Manager doesn't seems to recognise .apks or .xapk extensions so your offline apk needs to be a single apk (you can get the apk from trusted site like apkpure or find a way to extract the split apk's from the installed app and merge them into a single apk)
One more thing the patched apk will not install over your existing installed official apk. So you must remove it first. I am also not sure if the patched apk will install over a previously patched apk created with the ReVanced Manager (It should be possible but I came across this project just last night and haven't really tested the various scenarios).
Note: I am neither a contributor on this project nor I am associated with them in any way. I am just sharing something useful I came across.

Thanks for your contribution, TinySoul. I understand that the original had quite the following, so it's good to see someone passing the torch. For the sake of keeping the board organized, would you be willing to start a dedicated thread for your project, and then link it here?
Hi all.
I have been following the ReVanced project since shortly after it started.
It is a big and still a young project so, there are some glitches and issues.
- Some patches might not work or cause issues.
I had some issues with the ReVanced Managers between v0.0.19 and v.0.0.26.
YT and YT Music force close after patching with manager 22, 23, 24 and 25.​
ReVanced does not currently support split-apks.
v.0.0.19 was the last able to patch split-apk YT​
The ReVanced Manager will not work on arm (armv7a) devices.
You can patch arm files on an arm64 (armv8a) device.​
I am still working on updating a Magisk module project that I started a few years ago but, never announced.
Vanced asked that no one release an unofficial module once they created an official module.
Since the official module was dead, I asked for permission to release a new module.​
Spoiler: Long story short.
A few years ago, due to changes in Android.
I was looking for an easier way to use the root 'Vanced' version of YouTube on my device(s).
Instead of manually replacing and setting permissions, I tested an idea (on a lot of devices and Android versions) to overlay the modified version over the stock installed version.
The Vanced team adopted the idea into their Manager root install.
- ReVanced does the same.

It would be nice if someone would create a general discussion thread for ReVanced.
@TinySoul
Would you be willing to start a discussion thread for ReVanced?
Title: [Discussion] ReVanced - (Add something of a descriptor).​
Then we can move the last few posts into the discussion thread.
Cheers all. [/INDENT]

Thank you for the opportunity but I am sorry to respectfully decline it.
I do not have enough technical know-how of Android OS. And I know even less when it comes to rooted devices.
Do we really need another dedicated thread when the developers themselves are running/maintaining dedicated threads on GitHub and five social media apps ?
Those who know Russian for them there is a big thread on Russian 4pda site.
Be it any app any platform, if the developers have made themselves accessible/approachable to public, then it is always better to approach them directly.
Just a couple of days ago I came to know that this ReVanced Manager can also be used to patch Reddit and Twitter apps.
Maintaining a dedicated thread means one will have to answers queries on those two apps too. And my problem is other than YouTube I am not present on any other social media site(never fallen for any social media sites or apps right from the start) so there is no question of using their dedicated apps. On few occasions I have browsed reddit and twitter sites as an unregistered user.
It will not be fair on my part to own a dedicated thread and then not answering the queries related to other apps.
I hope you understand.
Thank you

Ostensibly, we do. If we're posting about it on XDA Developers, then we're no longer in the realm of social networking. The entire goal of an online discussion board is to present conversations in a more organized way than a social network could. Hijacking a thread about an existing project isn't the best plan of attack, especially when so many have questions and comments about it. I'll have to think it over some more, but I don't see any problem with you not supporting it in its own thread, even if your post is the first one.

Well then , that sounds li8ke a job anyone do, even a moderator, to move all the OT discussion into its own thread.

You are quite right about the social networking part and I was bit wrong here. I didn't gave much thought on unregulated and unorganized (content) aspect of social networking sites/apps. YouTube, Twitter, Telegram etc. are not really well moderated but what about dedicated channels on Discord or Reddit(though it's quite similar to Quora) and perhaps GitHub could be more technical to many.
I understand that Vanced app is discontinued and ReVanced is really a new project so you see a need to have a separate thread about it.
But one of the main reason for my hesitation is this content regulation and moderation aspect of it. If I am owning a thread then am I not responsible for keeping the thread clean and ensuring it has relevant contents only?
Second reason is about active participation and contribution to the thread. Are you and others are really fine with the the owner of the thread himself being inactive for long duration and hardly having any real contribution other than few initial posts? If yes then I too am fine owning a thread.
Else you can simply create a new thread and move all posts related to ReVanced app there. You have my full consent (in case that it stopping you) and I am not even looking for any credit whatsoever for my posts on ReVanced app up till now.
I will keep on posting on that thread as per the need basis or if I have some solution for someone's query. How frequently this will happen I really cannot say.
Thank You.

Even as the first poster in the thread, not only are you not expected to moderate or regulate, you also do not have the ability to do so. That responsibility lies solely at the feet of the moderation team.

That's not a problem at all. Once the actual developer steps up and puts together a formal app/support thread for it, there's nothing wrong with linking it here.

Hi everyone,
- I somehow got ReVanced working on my PocoF1 using an A13 custom ROM without root.
- YOU CAN GIVE IT A TRY TOO.
- Not just on my phone with a custom rom installed, but it also worked on a phone with a stock rom without root.
I wont go much in-depth about it as I dont have that much knowledge about why & how it happened.
I was facing the same issue that some users above are reporting, that app is crashing just on opening after building, installing it.
I too tried several times, then gave up and thought to go back to Vanced.
Solution which worked for me:
Install "Youtube Vanced" from vanced manager first, then try patching the recommended specific version(17.36.37) of "Google Youtube" apk from Revanced manager, then it works.
After that, I uninstalled youtube vanced and google youtube and vanced manager, and still the Revanced Youtube was working fine.
I'm curious to know why and how this workaround worked. If anyone gets the clue behind this, please do share.
Thank you.
Hello there just wanted to post that the manager app is working fine with the mentioned version of YouTube and YT music app you just have to install Microg package in your system.
Thank everyone for you help and guidance.

Can we pin this to the OP or copy the content to the first post?
Would be helpful.
