Question Youtube Vanced "installation failed because the user tried to downgrade the package" - Google Pixel 7 Pro

I am rooted and bootloader unlocked running the stock rom. I recently wiped the device as part of the steps for enabling 32 bit app support, ever since then I have been unable to re-install youtube vanced. Prior to wiping the device I had no issues running youtube vanced.... The device is a T-Mobile variant, bootloader unlocked and rooted with Magisk Delta installed. I saw a post about running the debloater module to remove youtube and reinstall vanced but this did not work for me :/ Any suggestions/tips or other members that have encountered this issue? I will attach a screenshot of the errors.
Edit to Include the solution for anybody else who encounters this: install the Vanced Magisk module- https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases

use app de-bloater (APK + magisk module) to uninstall completely YouTube and YouTube music before u try to install Vance's.

You can also try YouTube ReVanced (no root needed)

Use the magisk module, https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases

This is exactly what I did. Youtube was entirely removed before attempting to install Vanced.

that's weird. Had same problem and it worked for me. This error says you have installed later version on this app so you did not uninstall it completely then

Thank you my friend This worked for me

Hello, I could only make it work with SystemlessDebloater:
1) Install the module using Magisk, do not reboot phone.
2) In download directory chang file SystemlessDebloaterList.sh to have REPLACE="YouTube" (case matters)
3) Install the module again.
4) It should detect package com.google.android.youtube, reboot and then vanced youtube installer worked.

FYI that is reVanced not Vanced. Vanced is currently no longer in development and if far different to what you are used to with Vanced. You will also likely need to sideload a specific version of the YouTube apk and install that for all/most patches to work. Currently its sitting at 18.49.36 but until not so long ago (not sure when) it was 17.49.37 which for example I am currently on.

Huh, thanks. never heard of this and I honestly just always uninstalled first. I guess this is just a convenience or an improvement to the process as I can't imagine a case for myself where I couldn't just uninstall with/without backing up user data first and then downgrade.

This method works for me! My question is: Can we remove the module after succesfull installation of Vanced? Or if we remove the module we get stuck again with bloatware Youtube app?
If i remove just the config.cfg file ( New Version create .cfg file in Download ) would also return the Youtube bloatware app?

Anybody else got a semi-bricked phone after using this? I used this on oos 10 (added some more apps from the tomatot debloater script) and my phone would only boot to a black screen with only power button working. Deleting/uninstalling the module in twrp didn't disable debloating. Even reflashing oos10 in twrp didn't work. Only way to get a working phone again was to use the fastboot rom flash method to get a clean phone.
Edit: I used this debloater on oos 9.0.9 without issues. Only now on 10.0.3 I'm getting stuck.
Edit 2: After using the debloat text file from the Git repo eveything works as expected on OOS 10.0.3. Must've been an entry I added myself that caused the issues.

Yes, there's an issue with the list I provided, but I'm not quite sure which package was the culprit. However I made a new import-debloat.txt file which works with 10.3.0.
Any changes? Do it work with OOS 10.3.0?

Then what could I be doing wrong? I have installed the magisk module, have busybox installed if that matters, am using termux, have downloaded the file from the pastebin link, entered the correct file path, still invalid file.

Maybe the file is corrupt or something? Not sure how that could happen when just downloading.
I attach the debloat.txt that I use (which works well for me). Go through it to make sure you're happy it's what you expect and then try it out. Hopefully it will work for you. :good:
One thing I found: after debloat some system apps would still be on the phone. If that happens to you, you can just uninstall them as you would a normal app. Don't worry, if you remove the Magisk module or restore the debloated apps, they'll re-appear.
Good luck!
The file was the problem indeed, yours worked perfectly like you said, some hidden app appeared like google auto, and I just uninstalled them. Thank you for the help man.
i do this and my device doesn't start! Stuck on the screen that says The boot loader is....

Attached is 1 zip files. Since twitch is using split apk we need to use "Split APKs Installer (SAI)" found in the google play store to install the applications. It does not require root.
Versions:
Twitch [2.9.8](AndroidTV) (newest as of 3/7/2020)
Tests:
Tested on Nvidia Sheild TV PIE
Instructions Android TV:
1) Download the ZIP file for Android TV onto your internal SD-Card
2) Install Split APKs Installer (SAI) either from the playstore or attached to this post.
3) Open Split APKs Installer (SAI) and go to settings and enable sign APKs(see screenshot)
4) Go back to Main Screen and hit Install Apk at the bottom
5) Locate ZIP file you copied to your internal SD-Card
6) You will get a notification that you need to allow Split APKs Installer (SAI) to install the file(on android TV after enabling install permissions I need to close and restart from setup 3 as giving permissions froze the app)
7) Run Twitch and sign in
NOTE:
1) Make sure you uninstall any twitch app you have installed
2) While the application stops ads from twitch it may not stop forced ads(Ads that the streamer forces). Example, switch from streamer to streamer you will get a ad from twitch(this should be blocked). Streamer finished a match in overwatch he may force a ad on his viewers(this may not be stopped)
Looking to fix phone to newest version. Some set backs.

I've been running it for a few days now with not a single ad but I'll run some tests to see if I can reproduce. Also just to be clear you got a ad at the start of the stream? And you did uninstall any previous versions before installing?

does this support background or mini player? Like can i have it running in a small window while doing other things on my phone?
Application is incompatible with this device
it may mostly work on Shield, but others may not work as good with Android TV
Tried it on my Mecool Km9 running Pie but wouldn't install, Need the 32 bit one. Could you do the same thing to this 32bit app. You can download it from my Google drive https://drive.google.com/open?id=1S_r_Hv2qkQPZjEUnYRKn2gvN1DtsOrpV
Do you think it will work with a Android TV from Philips with pie?

Netflix problem on rooted POCO (with TWRP and Magisk)

Hey Guys,
do you know how to fix problem with Netflix app? My app after unlock bootloader, install TWRP and root by Magisk doesn't work.
I try download older versions to 5.x and "liboemcrypto disabler" or even "magisk drm disabler (MDD)" with LITE option, but this is not working.
Please help me to fix this problem. I have original MUI stock.

Magisk DRM disabler disables DRM which Is necessary for Netflix to work, so don't install it next time if you want Netflix to work. Currently, our device doesn't pass SafetyNet which Is necessary for Netflix and some banking apps to work. There Is a solution to that by using MagiskProps Config and some other solution, but I don't care about Netflix as I don't use it so I can't give you a complete solution.

Thx for answer. I have MagiskProp Config and my POCO X3 NFC pass SafetyNet - I can pay by phone in shops.
Do you know how to enable DRM again? When I delete the Magisk DRM disable that will be ok?

Question [SOLVED] Revanced working?

Did anyone try installing revanced manager on the P7P? Get it working?
I installed the manager and it doesn't seem to see when I patch the youtube apk. It goes through the process of patching the youtube apk. I installed using non-root methods and when I try to open the newly installed apk that revanced patches, it just sits on a black screen.
When I tried installing with the root method, the apk is not visible in the app drawer.
EDIT: Confirmed working, many different ways... Revanced builder using Windows, revanced builder using android, rooted and non-rooted. Rooted using revanced manager. Rooted using magisk module.
I didn't use the manager, I used the builder and that was fine.
Do you have a link to the builder and method you used?
Did you use the android phone method or windows injection method of builder?

I think I found my problem. When using the revanced manager, they don't recommend using dpi related apks or split apks but installing a no dpi apk instead. If you do, they say it causes issues of not loading.

Agreed, they have been working on the builder much longer than the manager.
And if memory serves me, the windows version doesn't require micro g to install it on the phone. Is that correct or do you need it?

I'm having problems with this using revanced manager. patches ok and installs ok (root), works fine for a bit, then starts to crash on start. any clues?
magisk module seems to work but includes the "theme" patch which gives it a black theme rather than dark.
edit: also tried non root method with micro g but chromecast doesn't work. I'm stuck.

Download the non dpi version of the app. Don't get the multi APK version.
just for anyone else following this later, I sorted this out. I actually have youtube premiere because it's the only way to have no adverts on the chromecast. so I think some of the no advert patches might have been conflicting. so I just applied the bare minimum patches I wanted, swipe gestures sponsor block and remember resolution, after that it was fine.
I fixed the problem in root version
1/ install ur patch (as root, so u don't need to allow microg )
2/ install as root (close the app without oppening youtube)
3/ go to magisk and configure deny list
4/ do like that in pic and restart ur device
5/ run youtube without any problem

Question installing vanced root on p7p, can't uninstall OG youtube?!

last youtube vanced version is 17.03, version installed on p7p is 17.17, hence vanced won't install. tried uninstalling via adb in the usual fashion, vanced still won't install, same message - trying to install earlier version. how the hell do i uninstall OG yoiutube properly?
I'm not 100% following you but here is what I always do to get Vanced installed...
I am rooted but this is for the non-root version which I just find easier to use:
1) Install Vanced microG
2) Clear Youtube / Youtube Music cache and data
3) Install Youtube Vanced
4) Install Youtube Music Vanced
5) Disable (not uninstall) Youtube and Youtube Music
Make sense or am I not answering your question?
Long press icon > info > disable > install modded YT
That's what I did to install ReVanced on my 7 Pro and it's not rooted and was an older YouTube version.
yeah i had it installed as non root with micro g but it started throwing me the chromecast error msg about updating google services. so I'm trying to install the rooted version. rooted version works fine on my p6p.
You should be using Youtube Revanced.
Install MicroG
Overwrite provided Youtube with version 17.36.37
Install Revanced Manager then run it
Choose Youtube and select the patches you want to apply
Allow Revanced to work its magic
Install the resulting APK file
Hide or uninstall the original Youtube app

If you're rooted there's a Revanced YouTube Magisk mod. The last version is 17.36.37. Just search in Github for Revanced Magisk Module.
I need to install MicroG. I see MicroG Vanced and a bunch of APKs for the MicroG github page.
Which MicroG do you recommend we use for ReVanced?

so with this you end up with a new app (like the vanced non root method)? it doesn't overwrite the original app?

Yup, there is an option amongst the patch list to rename the APK that is generated.

If you're rooted there's a Revanced YouTube Magisk mod. The last version is 17.36.37. Just search in Github for Revanced Magisk Module.

so with this method when you install the module it presents you with a bunch of options for patching the installed youtube app? is there any benefit of this over using the new revanced manager?

It doesn't present you with a bunch of options for patching. You just flash it, that's it,

ok cheers
Not tried the Magisk module. But the fact you don't get to choose what aspects you want patching (there are over 30 options to tick/untick when patching in Revanced Manager) suggests to me it's not as versatile.
But if you're rooted and simply want to be rid of the ads, it could be the easier option.
I see that it's a bunch of different patches for each different function. does revanced add options in the menu for these individual functions, like vanced, or does it just implement them? for example if I flash the magisk module, it enables all the patches. will I still be able to enable disable them in the menu? if not perhaps revanced manager is better as you can select which patches to run.

There is a full menu even when you manually patch with the builder.

thanks for your help guys. as to my original question, how would I uninstall youtube if I wanted to, whilst rooted? I couldn't find a way.
