persists on 3.0.4

[anno2070]

Still persists on 19.26.5 - 3.0.4.
I noticed that 19.26.5, 19.25.4 ipas from armconverter are ~9 MB less than 19.20.2 ipa from armconverter and ~19 MB less than 19.19.5 ipa from qnblackcat's OneDrive.
Haven't tried 19.22.3 (since out of armconverter quota today) and another source of ipa (because idk).

+1 Came to see if anyone else was running into this issue. Glad I'm not the only one. Going back to 19.22.6 for now

[TheNightRider12]

I am having this issue on my iPhone 15 Pro now (don't have this issue on my 13). Also installed with Sideloadly. Using the latest commits as of now as well.

[SubjectGinger]

+1, same issue, same device and iOS version.

[ComfortableMilk4454]

+1

@ devs can yall pls fix?

[Fgacko]

+1, tested on both iphone 14 pm and iphone 6s + (both on latest ios versions)

if anyone else is having the same issue you can downgrade to 19.22.6 or below for now

[ComfortableMilk4454]

found a solution. switch to YTLitePlus which has none of these issues and you can use the latest YT ipa with it. https://github.com/YTLitePlus/YTLitePlus & here's a tutorial i made on how to build the iPA. you'll need this link to download the latest YT decrypted iPA. just make sure once you install YTLitePlus to turn on VP9 under Video Quality Preferences, Then, turn off YouPIP, and restart the app, otherwise you won't be able to watch videos in 1440p or greater quality. enjoy.

great. finally something that works because I couldn't find a uyou+ version in the last 2 hours that either wasn't half broken or crashed instantly. Hope VP9 and PIP will eventually work in combination

[ComfortableMilk4454]

yw! yeah i hope so too, i believe the dev is looking into it

[TheNightRider12]

@Fgacko @SubjectGinger @TheNightRider12 @Smelly-Ghost @xxxkowal @anno2070 @TheKfcBandit here's a solution :)

Thanks! I got YTLite Plus working. I just have an issue with downloads. YTLitePlus/YTLitePlus#189
other than that, it works great for me. I don’t download much anyways.

[ComfortableMilk4454]

@PoomSmart Any update regarding fixing those missing elements yet or no ?

Hey I think there’s a solution. If you remove the YouTube sign in fix stuff
in https://github.com/qnblackcat/uYouPlus/blob/7bd53658e998e0577a0318bc6ce36458e7d61ab6/Sources/uYouPlusPatches.xm#L5-#L13 then it should restore all the icons in the app.

There is an error saying something similar to being unsafe when trying to log in, so google login won't work. But if you are already logged in, the icons and everything will be restored.

Maybe it could be made then to only use that code if it detects the user is signed out?

I can Confirm that this works great. I just built the youtube 19.26.5 using this fix on my fork, and everything works great. No black blank spaces on homepage, no missing icons and no ads. Everything works great.

@PoomSmart you should consider this change.

Confirming that this solution works! Built with 19.26.5 in IOS 17.

hiya there, everybody!

macOS Sonoma 14.5 + iOS 17.5.1 user here, and i had this issue while using Sideloadly to install uYouEnhanced (current build at time of writing is v19.28.1-3.0.4).
initially i had issues with sign-in; ticking the Inject dylibs/frameworks box, then ticking the Sideload Spoofer box, then reinstalling the .ipa file fixed the sign-in issues for me.
this unfortunately is when i saw the missing UI elements, and i think other users had this happen too.

once you've signed into your Google/YouTube account in the app, go back to Sideloadly, add the .ipa file, keep Inject dylibs/frameworks unticked this time, then reinstall the app. you should stay signed in and get the missing UI elements back.

fingers crossed this helps anyone else with issues! <3

Build the latest uYouEnhanced, with latest YouTube, then go to settings and enable sign in fixes, reload the app (UI elements will be missing), sign in, then turn off sign in fixes and reload app, when you reload after turning off sign in fixes, the elements should reappear, as it is that code that fixes signin, yet breaks elements. Do not choose any of the sideloadly extra options, as they could have unknown comparability issues...
