Does it work with the latest version?(12.47.58)

[bestmjh47]

It seems that this module doesn't work for the latest youtube version even after your update. I'm running youtube on Android 4.4 and according to apkmirror, there are some variants (for 4.1+,for 5.0+ etc..), so I think I'm currently using youtube which was built for kitkat, not lollipop-compatible version. Could it be a reason which hindered your module working on my device?

[th3an7]

Can you test it now?

[bestmjh47]

Thanks. Works perfectly fine now.

[Prolution]

Confirmation: Module version 2.0.4 doesn't work with the latest YouTube app 12.47.58. I'm based on Android 7.1 (MIUI 9).

[th3an7]

Ok... I found where is the problem now...

Code for 4.1+ and 5.0+ versions are different now - before, classes were named the same for both Android versions. Now, the naming is changed and the module is working either for 4.1+ or for 5.0+ and not for both at the same time...

The temporary solution would be to build the module for 4.1+ and 5.0+ YT apps separately so it would work for those versions...

[Kronopt]

Can't you just have a json for each version here on the repo and check the version running on the device before downloading?

[th3an7]

@bestmjh47 @Prolution @Kronopt can you please test THIS one?

If you're getting errors when installing it, uninstall the old one and try again

[sersimovi]

Tested the apk on android 7.0, didn't work

[th3an7]

@sersimovi can you check xposed log and/or logcat for any errors connected with module?

[th3an7]

@sersimovi can you upload your YT .apk? The log doesn't show any errors - only that hooks were loaded...

[ghost]

@the3an7 the module was working perfectly for me while on 12.47.58, but today suddenly it stopped working, even though the youtube app got no update... I tried reinstalling and everything, still does not work. I'm on Android 6.0.1. I think this is pretty weird.

[sersimovi]

I'm on my phone right now and I don't see the option to upload an apk. It's the latest version from the playstore tho. I reinstalled YouTube and still anything.

[sersimovi]

I had the same scenario as Manousos

[panyuhang93]

Me too

[th3an7]

@man0usos yes, I know that... I've changed hooks to test something - seems like it now works for YT Android 4.1+...

If I change it back, it will stop working for 4.1+ and will work again for 5.0+ like it was before...

As I wrote before, there was a change sometime ago (didn't even know about that tbh) an now classes in YT app for 4.1+ and 5.0+ are different.

The easiest fix would be to make 2 separate module for YT made for 4.1+ and 5.0+ - I thought about just updating .json file with hooks for both versions, but apparently it doesn't work like that (according to reports earlier)...

Someone needs to either think of a fix and propose commit to .jar/.json or just make 2 versions of module...

[th3an7]

If that module .apk posted earlier does't work for anyone, then I'll just build modules for both 4.1+ and 5.0+ separately

[bestmjh47]

I think this option would be considered although this surely needs some code amendment.

1. Detect Android version(or SDK version through getprop command).
2. According to detected OS version, download appropriate hook.

But as you proposed, just building and maintaing seperate modules for each OS would be nice. Either way, users except using Android 5.0+ have to reinstall their module.

[bestmjh47]

Which option would you choose? Cloning previous project and just changing package name and hook will be convenient to you than adding some detection functions..

[th3an7]

This one should work for android 4.1 - please test it :)

DOWNLOAD

[bestmjh47]

Thanks. I'll go for it right away.

[bestmjh47]

Umm.. The Latest Avast says it's a kind of virus.. Detection name: APK:CloudRep [Susp]

[panyuhang93]

@man0usos @sersimovi update to xposed v89?

[th3an7]

@bestmjh47 that's weird... it's exactly the same as the previous one but with changed link to .json

I think it's just false positive as it hooks to other app...

[sersimovi]

@panyuhang93 already using it

[bestmjh47]

Anyway, It works fine now. Tested on Youtube for Android 4.1+. Thanks a lot.

[Zralle]

Not working on android 7.0.1. Send the other apk and I will test it :)

[bestmjh47]

@Zralle th3an7 uploaded apk for those who use YT built for Android 4.1+. I think you would be fine with module that you used yesterday.

[th3an7]

@Zralle you don't need to install anything... if it worked before (ex. yesterday or so), then you don't need to change anything - it will magically work again...

But if for some reason, you've already installed new one, THIS one should work...

~~@bestmjh47 if you're talking about me, no - it's not - I'm Polish :D But thanks :P~~

[Zralle]

today I installed xposed update 89 and after that it didn't work... Yes, I did force stop app and reboot few times. (last time 30 minutes before) I didn't install new version.

[sersimovi]

@zralle I can confirm it's not Becuase of that. I had v80 when it stopped working. Updated to 89 to try if it'd fix it but nothing

[th3an7]

@Zralle have you enabled the module after updating framework?

Also, you need to reboot after enabling it...

[sersimovi]

@th3an7 I did and nothing

[th3an7]

@sersimovi was it working before? Force stop YT/reboot phone...

Also, which module version are you using right now?

[Zralle]

yeah I checked all that. I use app that you link in one post in other issue.

[th3an7]

@Zralle that's weird...

As always - check xposed log/logcat for any errors

[Zralle]

no errors.

Should I try reinstalling apk?

[th3an7]

yeah, sure... don't forget to re-enable it :)

[Zralle]

1 min

[Zralle]

Working now. Don't know what I did wrong last time. I checked all steps :/

[th3an7]

No problem @Zralle - glad it works now :D

I guess I'll close this issue... If anyone have any problems with this one yet, just reopen it :P

[sersimovi]

Still not working for me. I'm on nougat 7.0, exposed v89 and using the 2.0.5 YBP version the apk that you uploaded. And like i said i'm using the last youtube version 12.47.58, i reinstalled the module, youtube, rebooted, force stop... nothing worked

[th3an7]

I'm on nougat 7.0, exposed v89 and using the 2.0.5 YBP version

There's your problem... try the one from https://github.com/pylerSM/YouTubeBackgroundPlayback/issues/336 or https://github.com/pylerSM/YouTubeBackgroundPlayback/issues/353#issuecomment-352511576 (they are the same)

Was it working before?

EDIT: Try disabling Adaway and/or Force Doze modules... maybe they are breaking something

[sersimovi]

Okay solved, I wasn't using the apk on #353. Thanks
