Ошибка установите microg youtube vanced

It still do be a problemo. Samsung’s fault?

Same problem, I think vanced that I had before not disappeared. I think some files stayed in data folder, and because of them new version can’t be installed.

@qc20foster why did you specify a windows pc?
From what I read here you can do this just fine on a Linux PC or even a Mac and it should work better too. you can even Skip over a lot of these steps for Linux.
Vanced is not a «crack» it’s a mod, and no data gets left behind by uninstalling the non-root version; it’s essentially like any other app and yet it still gets fucked by the Samsung updating engine. Plus if you already have root you can remove it easily with the privileges you already have.

A guide for setting up adb can already be found in this repository’s Readme. Instead of running the logcat command you would just run adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube

Looks like I touched the nerv of contributors here then this topic got «your replies» pretty quickly.

First of all, I’m not trying to claim it’s a Vanced’s bug. It could be caused by Samsung’s OTA and it could be caused by Google. Anyway, I’m not a judge here.

And, I just ran into this problem since I received Android 11 OTA this week. After googled lots of users guide which might be created for dummies or geeks, I found my own way to run the adb. And it’s my first time to run the adb. I just SHARED MY SOLUTION HERE. Don’t QUESTION ME WHY I SPECIFIED A WINDOWS PC.
Most of entry level users DIDN’T use LINUX.

I uses Windows, so I shared the steps on Windows in such very details for pretty entry level users who might probably not know adb at all.

It is very easy for developers to reset their testing phone, but for normal users they stored too many personal data on their personal phone, and a reset is such a big pain for them.

I know here is for developers to develop software projects, but clearly this thread is reported by a normal and entry-level user. And they might not know how to root their phone, either. Less geek wording might be more helpful for these guys.

You don’t have to thank me, but do not trash talk by questioning a given solution that might be helpful for some users.

When did I ever say that normal entry-level user can’t use it? Nor did I ever say they have to be root.
You had inaccuracies and I corrected them (it’s called constructive criticism) it’s as simple as that, don’t be a prick. 👍

I have the same problem as describde here, but qc20foster solution didn’t work, On step 16 instead of Success i get error message:
cmd: Failure calling service package: Broken pipe (32)
Also my S10 begin to rastart at exact moment I execute step 15 command

Any suggestions what to do?
I’m bellow-entry level user, so don’t kknow what to do without step-by-step guide

WHEN DID I SAY YOU SAID «normal entry-level user can’t use it»??????????

You «corrected» my INACCURACIES by suggesting users: Hey Linux PC is a better idea, and a lot of steps can be skipped (but didn’t specify what steps are skip-able). Then, said that root user can easily do the app uninstallation.

All of the above are your «inaccuracies correction and constructive criticism».
You are soooooo genius, and now called me a prick here.

From what the OP claimed, this guy cannot even uninstall YouTube Vanced because it is no longer existed on the App list of the phone after the Android system upgraded.

Now, there is another user who cannot even run the basic adb command to remove the YouTube Vanced app.
Perhaps you have a Linux PC and Android is based on Linux, too.
Hope you are able to give some suggestions to this user and troubleshoot the errors of the adb command.

Lotter88 has followed my steps and failed, Let’s assume he/she uses a Windows PC.
It would be very grateful if you can help this guy.

I am really sorry that my steps contain inaccuracies.

Check your driver’s and make sure they’re installed properly, you can run adb devices to see if it’s all set-up correctly.

What type of drivers do you mean? When I run adb devices command I see (as in the instruction) serial for my device, thought it mean it’s ok at this step

What type of drivers do you mean? When I run adb devices command I see (as in the instruction) serial for my device, thought it mean it’s ok at this step

Try running it as administrator. Just open command prompt as administrator and try.

Try adb uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube

1.)

ADB Setup

Windows

Download the Android Debug Bridge (Aka ADB)
ADB Link

Extract the zip
Now open a command prompt in this directory. You can do so by holding shift and right clicking the folder and then pressing Open Powershell here
alternatively you can cd into the location if you have to run command prompt as administrator for any reason

Mac

• Mac is basically the windows method but your using Bash or Zsh like on Linux

Download the Android Debug Bridge (Aka ADB)
ADB Link

Extract the zip
Now open a Terminal in this directory.
You can use cd

Linux

Debian

sudo apt install adb -y

Arch

sudo pacman -S adb

Alternatively you can do the same as the Mac guide.

2.)

On Android Device

• Enable Developer Options. You can do so by going to Settings > About Phone and tapping Build Number 7 times
• Now go to Settings > System > Developer options and enable Usb Debugging

3.)

ADB

Omit the . if you’re using Mac/Linux

• Find a USB cable, Doesn’t matter what it is (USB-A — USB-C or USB-A — microUSB or USB-C — USB-C) as long as it has proper USB capabilities and can connect your PC and Phone.
• In the command prompt run .adb devices a pop-up should come up on the phone, hit allow.
• run .adb devices again and your device should be shown if all goes well.
• run .adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube

Root Users

• First you need a Terminal. I recommend Termux
• Open it up and run the following command

su -c "pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube"

If you used Root Vanced and the bug accrued you can try using a Root browser and navigate to data/adb and delete the Vanced folder and reboot, that should revert youtube back to normal.

@qc20foster
You can stop acting like a child now.

OK, YOU FINALLY ARE ACTING LIKE A DEVELOPER AND CONTRIBUTOR NOW by giving some constructive solution.
Thank you for not keep questioning me why I specified Windows and cool talk why not used Linux as it is easir and claiming lots of steps are skip-able without giving any actual helpful solution yourself.

What you repied is just giving more details or make some adjustments on the steps I specified previously . It’s the same solution at technical wise.

If you gave some constructive steps but not questioned others with simple words at the beginning, you won’t humiliate yourself in this public thread like now still a prick trying to insult me.

Please grow up now.

The more you talk the more you just make a fool out of yourself man. You could have just taken the constructive criticism and edited your own shit, but no you took it personal and went on some stupid ass long rants and tried attacking my character instead, you acted like a fucking child and the only thing you can do now is own up to your faults or don’t, either way nobody cares friend. ✌️

Its work fine, thanks matee !!

I do find a solution without doing the factory reset.

My issue is exactly same as yours. YouTube Vanced (not microG) disappeared in my installed App and can’t be launched/installed/updated/uninstalled anymore after the Android OS upgraded from Android 10 to Android 11 on Samsung Note20 Ultra.

Error: incompatible……updated…..signature does not match…..

I think that the root cause of this issue has nothing to do with the OneUI 3 but this un-official YouTube cracking app got wiped by the new Android system upgrade automatically.
The YouTube Vanced didn’t get completely removed in fact, and some residual app data remains on the phone.

Alright, the following way I tried is a little bit complicated, but no need ROOT nor any additional HACK or CRACKs.
And, of course, no need to reset the phone.

1. Find a Windows PC. (Windows 10)
2. Download the Android Debug Module (as known as «adb») files from the URL:
   https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
3. Extract the downloaded zip to C:, and a folder «platform-tools» will be extracted to there.
4. Launch Command Prompt on Windows:
   https://www.howtogeek.com/235101/10-ways-to-open-the-command-prompt-in-windows-10/
5. Type: cd C:platform-tools and press [Enter] to let command prompt locate the extracted folder.
6. Use your phone and open developer options on Android:
   https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-do-i-turn-on-the-developer-options-menu-on-my-samsung-galaxy-device/
7. Enable the USB debugging mode option.
8. Find a USB-A to USB-C cable, and please use the cable that originally shipped in the box of your Samsung phone if possible. (Older Samsung phone like note8 might give you one).

Note: I’m not sure if a C-to-C cable might work or not, and some PCs don’t have a USB-C port.

1. Connect your phone to PC using the above cable.
2. The Windows will run an automatic process to setting up the phone connection, it might take about 30 seconds, and there would be dialog pops up on your phone to ask you to select the USB connection. Please select the file transfer (MTP) one.
3. Go to the Command Prompt window that you opened and ran the command in the step 5.
4. Type: adb devices and press [Enter] to let Android Debug Module locate your phone on PC.
5. The above command will list your Android phone in the Command Prompt window, and then there will be an access prompt pops up on your phone. Please allow the USB debugging mode accordingly.
6. See if there is a device showing with an serial (it should be your phone’s internal hardware serial but not the model number) after the adb devices command. If yes, do the following steps.
7. Type adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube, and press [Enter] in the Windows Command Prompt window.
8. If the uninstallation works, the command prompt will show SUCCESS message. The process might take few seconds or accomplish right away.
9. Unplug the USB connection.
10. Launch Vanced Manager app on your phone to install the YouTube Vanced app, and the setup should work fine this time.

By the way, I didn’t reboot my phone or my Windows PC during the above process.
Hope the above info save some people’s ass.

Thanks My friend,,,, this worked fine for me

LMAO! Thanks Man! I’ve updated my phone today and that piece of shit vanished from my phone like a fart in the air! I’ve accessed android files by third pay file manager and deleted vanced files but it didn’t work! I’ve wasted 1hour searching for solution on the internet and I’ve seen this finally! And obviously it worked! :p
Arigató Gosaimasu!

I wish the adb solution worked
However it just reboots my phone with an error message

Failure calling service package: Broken pipe (32)

This worked for me but with a forward slash on the mac (/) not a backward slash () So:
./adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube

Thanks for the suggestions.

Я нахожу решение, не выполняя сброс настроек до заводских.

Моя проблема точно такая же, как у вас. YouTube Vanced (не microG) исчез в моем установленном приложении и больше не может быть запущен / установлен / обновлен / удален после обновления ОС Android с Android 10 до Android 11 на Samsung Note20 Ultra.

Ошибка: несовместимо …… обновлено ….. подпись не совпадает …..

Я думаю, что основная причина этой проблемы не имеет ничего общего с OneUI 3, но это неофициальное приложение для взлома YouTube автоматически стерто при обновлении новой системы Android.
На самом деле YouTube Vanced не был полностью удален, и некоторые остаточные данные приложения остались на телефоне.

Хорошо, следующий способ, который я пробовал, немного сложен, но не требует ROOT или каких-либо дополнительных HACK или CRACK.
И, конечно же, не нужно перезагружать телефон.

1. Найдите ПК с Windows. (Windows 10)
2. Загрузите файлы Android Debug Bridge (также известные как «adb») по URL-адресу:
   https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html.
3. Распакуйте загруженный zip-архив в C :, и туда будет извлечена папка «platform-tools».
4. Запустить командную строку в Windows:
   https://www.howtogeek.com/235101/10-ways-to-open-the-command-prompt-in-windows-10/
5. Введите: cd C: platform-tools и нажмите [Enter], чтобы командная строка обнаружила извлеченную папку.
6. Используйте свой телефон и откройте параметры разработчика на Android:
   https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-do-i-turn-on-the-developer-options-menu-on-my- Самсунг-галактика-устройство /
7. Включите опцию режима отладки USB.
8. Найдите кабель USB-A — USB-C и по возможности используйте кабель, который изначально был поставлен в коробке с телефоном Samsung. (Более старый телефон Samsung, такой как note8, может дать вам его).

Примечание: я не уверен, может ли работать кабель C-to-C или нет, а на некоторых ПК нет порта USB-C.

1. Подключите телефон к ПК с помощью указанного выше кабеля.
2. Windows запустит автоматический процесс настройки телефонного соединения, это может занять около 30 секунд, и на вашем телефоне появится диалоговое окно с предложением выбрать USB-соединение. Пожалуйста, выберите режим передачи файлов (MTP).
3. Перейдите в открывшееся окно командной строки и выполните команду на шаге 5.
4. Введите: adb devices и нажмите [Enter], чтобы Android Debug Bridge обнаружил ваш телефон на ПК.
5. Приведенная выше команда отобразит ваш телефон Android в окне командной строки, а затем на вашем телефоне появится запрос безопасности. Пожалуйста, разрешите режим отладки USB на телефоне соответственно.
6. Посмотрите, отображается ли устройство с серийным номером (это должен быть внутренний серийный номер вашего телефона, а не номер модели) после команды adb devices. Если да, выполните следующие действия.
7. Введите adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube и нажмите [Enter] в окне командной строки Windows.
8. Если удаление работает, в командной строке появится сообщение УСПЕХ. Процесс может занять несколько секунд или завершиться сразу.
9. Отключите USB-соединение.
10. Запустите приложение Vanced Manager на своем телефоне, чтобы установить приложение YouTube Vanced, и на этот раз настройка должна работать нормально.

Кстати, я не перезагружал ни телефон, ни компьютер с Windows в течение всего процесса.
Надеюсь, что приведенная выше информация спасет некоторых людей.

When I type a command «adb devices» it gives an error as ‘adb’ is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file…. It would be a great help if I find a video on this whole thing

My Dear Friend,

I really appreciate your help!!!! I was looking for months a solution in many different blogs to reinstall YouTube Vanced in my Xiaomi MI9, after upgrading to MIUI 12.5. I just followed instructions to unistall and reinstall the app as you explain, and now I’m happy again with YouTube Vanced working like a charm..THANKS A LOT!!!

2. Download the Android Debug Bridge (as known as «adb») files from the URL:
   https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
3. Extract the downloaded zip to C:, and a folder «platform-tools» will be extracted to there.
4. Launch Command Prompt on Windows:

5. Type: cd C:platform-tools and press [Enter] to let command prompt locate the extracted folder.
6. Use your phone and open developer options on Android:
   https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-do-i-turn-on-the-developer-options-menu-on-my-samsung-galaxy-device/
7. Enable the USB debugging mode option.
8. Find a USB-A to USB-C cable, and please use the cable that originally shipped in the box of your Samsung phone if possible. (Older Samsung phone like note8 might give you one).

Note: I’m not sure if a C-to-C cable might work or not, and some PCs don’t have a USB-C port.

1. Connect your phone to PC using the above cable.
2. The Windows will run an automatic process to setup the phone connection, it might take about 30 seconds, and there would be a dialog prompts on your phone to ask you to select the USB connection. Please select the file transfer (MTP) mode.
3. Go to the Command Prompt window that you opened and ran the command in the step 5.
4. Type: adb devices and press [Enter] to let Android Debug Bridge locate your phone on PC.
5. The above command will list your Android phone in the Command Prompt window, and then there will be a security prompt on your phone. Please allow the USB debugging mode on the phone accordingly.
6. See if there is a device showing with an serial (it should be your phone’s internal hardware serial but not the model number) after the adb devices command. If yes, do the following steps.
7. Type adb shell pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube, and press [Enter] in the Windows Command Prompt window.
8. If the uninstallation works, the command prompt will show SUCCESS message. The process might take few seconds or accomplish right away.
9. Unplug the USB connection.
10. Launch Vanced Manager app on your phone to install the YouTube Vanced app, and the setup should work fine this time.

By the way, I didn’t reboot my phone or my Windows PC during the whole process. Hope the above info save some people’s ass.
