I just use revanced

[–] ben_dover@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (4 children)

stopped working for me yesterday :(

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 11 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Are you still using the microg version? There is a new version that uses another patch. You'll have to go to Reddit for the instructions on how to install that

[–] Ginger666@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

You dont have to go to shiddit

There is a revanced discord that has all of the latest updates

https://discord.com/invite/revanced

Also check out this guide:

yeah i was using microg

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Then you should switch to the new GmsCore method, fixed it for me

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Does the gms version suck down battery % like microg does?

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 2 points 7 months ago

I haven't really noticed any battery drain with either to be honest

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What is the new one using?

[–] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think it's called GmsCore

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Will have to look into it

[–] KneeTitts@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

you have to get the new microG for the newer revanced to work

[–] Ginger666@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Update it

[–] NedRyerson@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

See that's my problem with revanced - it's this constant cycle of "It stopped working again. Time to go through another manual update process. Oh, that broke it even worse. Maybe if I remove my Google account, then re-add it. Do I also need to update some other piece it depends on? Cool, let's do that. Yay, it works!" Then a week later it all starts again.

I moved on to NewPipe and it's been great. I basically never have to think about it.

[–] Ginger666@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Newpipe is for android?

And I have only had to update revanced once in the year I've been using it...

[–] KneeTitts@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

pipepipe is also good, its a fork of newpipe

[–] Grangle1@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

I recently switched to Grayjay (which still exists and is updated) to put my YT and Odysee sub's in one place, but before that I had been using NewPipe on my Android phones for years. I still have it side loaded on my Kindle Fire tablet.

[–] ben_dover@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

i think i'll try newpipe for a while

[–] axo@feddit.de 2 points 7 months ago

Working fine for me
