Tablet UI on Android 5.x and later on 3.x is not working. #71

No, this is not by YT2009, Its by the tablet's ui on Android.

So, when I install any 3.x version of YouTube on a tablet (original or modded), it installs succesfully, on Android 3.0-4.4.4, it launches nicely, but on 5.0 and later Android versions, it launches, but it only shows a background and the YouTube logo.

The reason: maybe the tablet ui has some additional files or urls

How to fix it, and to make it work on newer android (tablet edition)? Screenshot_2024 02 06_00 11 39 865

the tablet ui requires graphics acceleration. looks like you're running it in a vm which could explain lack of the acceleration.

you're probably gonna get farther with android virtual device if you want to mess with tablet ui.
