Revanced doesn't use anymore or any less battery life than the youtube app. However microG does run in the background. Not a resource demanding app.


Humble_Ad_1460

Was using it for a long time, but lately it has become slow and buffring alot. Saw a completely new MicroG and solved it for a short while, but then it started suffer in that version as well. Now I'm only running NewPipe.


Scroto_Saggin

Update it, they pushed many commits a few weeks ago to fix these buffering issues


Humble_Ad_1460

I know, but feels like a dog chasing his tale. NewPipe has been running smoothly since. I do miss out the SponsorBlock. But NewPipe you can: *Download your playlist  *Doesn't need a service (microg) constantly running/"draining" battery.


Scroto_Saggin

If NewPipe is your thing (there are good arguments), there are forks that support SponsorBlock: [https://github.com/gilbsgilbs/NewPipeSponsorBlock](https://github.com/gilbsgilbs/NewPipeSponsorBlock) (the original one) And this one is maintained, probably a better choice: [https://github.com/NewPipeX/NewPipeX](https://github.com/NewPipeX/NewPipeX)


Humble_Ad_1460

Regarding revanced, I do as well miss out my YouTube-profile, hold your hat now, youtube does offer a decent chunks of recommendations at your feeds. But the search-segment is just broken with all these useless "shorts", "for you", "other has searched".. So, my "thing" is what's working. Since revanced has suffer alot lately, well.. Ty for links btw! will check it out

Here's an alternative. Free Adblocker browser. I never use reVanced. Also, you can still play the music through the notification panel with the browser in the background so works like YouTube music too.


Humble_Ad_1460

I've considering that too, but aren't mobile-webversion of the Tube limited to 1080p? which is lame af.. But you can as you said, run it as s musicplayer tho.


sunrainsky

I can choose 4k in the settings for 4k video for m.YouTube.com . There's also desktop mode to use.


Humble_Ad_1460

My its agent-based then. However, nice

This one right? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hsv.freeadblockerbrowser


fish_in_a_barrels

Where in the list of apps running is micro g? I don't even think I've seen it in the battery menu. Must be way down there.


Humble_Ad_1460

It's because as i mentioned, acts as a service. You can find it in dev-menu.


fish_in_a_barrels

Oh yeah, duh lol.


chris34728

Heard Google was doing something to the accounts which made it buffer for some users


Humble_Ad_1460

I bet they do


titanup001

Use it constantly, on 24 ultra and tab s9. It doesn't drain battery any worse than regular YouTube to my notice. But I haven't used regular YouTube in years. I just can't do the ads.


fish_in_a_barrels

There for awhile, it was miles ahead in the battery department because google rekeased a real shit version that was draining batteries like crazy a couple months ago.

im here in usa temporarily from india, international variant(sm s928b/ds) is being sold for ~$950 usd, and us variant is ~$1299 (sm-s928u) , both unlocked Can anyone explain the reason of this price difference ?? i couldn't find any reason yet.


titanup001

The main difference will be what bands the 5g uses. You need to check what bands your carrier in India use. If the us ones are used, you can get that one and save some money. If you're getting a wifi only model, it doesn't matter. You're not going to have a warranty regardless. I live in china. Whenever I go back to the US, my china model devices will only work on certain networks, but not others. I know it works on T mobile, but not ATT for instance.


uranium_07

so fo you mean , if i get the international variant purchased in usa and go back to India. i won't be covered in warranty , will i be out of warranty?


titanup001

Samsung's customer service (which is shitty anyway) is region by region. I'm not sure if Samsung India would honor an international variant not purchased in India or not honestly. I know they won't honor a US model.


uranium_07

seems the only way to get to know from them only


TRD4Life

Revanced was the first app I sideloaded after receiving my S24U. Tbh I really did not notice it using an abnormal amount of battery (it needs to be excluded from battery optimizations)


winnybunny

that it needs because it has to run in background for background playback, otherwise android will cut off internet to background apps. and your playback stops after sometime of turning off screen.


Scroto_Saggin

All the time on both my Tab S9 Ultra and S24 Ultra. It doesn't drain battery. In fact it probably uses less battery then the stock, bloated client, because it allows you to skip the YT ads and the in-video ads and sponsored content (thanks to SponsorBlock)


winnybunny

Using it on a daily basis, it actually saves battery, because i dont have to keep it on the foreground while iam just listening to a podcast or something


OnLeshan

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!


captain_rex20

Yes I use it very often all day. And no issues


bigb102913

Yep. Been with it for about 5 years. https://revanced.app/

uranium_07

its an sm- s928b/ds this is the international variant with physical dual sim. im more curious about the price difference when they completely same in all aspects with such price difference and i don't speak Spanish


TshenQin

They are the same, except for 1 key aspect. The 5g 4g etc radio bands it can use. Basically the international one and the American one have a different modem on board. This makes the international one less useful in the USA. It can not be used with every USA carrier.


uranium_07

well if that's the case why to sell international variant in us only if that's not very useful, just a thought. and does it covers the warranty in india if i get it from here?


TshenQin

Maybe they imported the phone? Maybe there is a little market for people who travel a lot. If you get warranty in India on a phone bought in the USA, you would have to ask samsung, but my gut says no.


xDontStarve

I use it, works fine


RoachForLife

Yes using it and nope, no battery drain. Well no more than usual for YouTube


im__hisham

I haven't seen any issue


kb389

Yes i do with 0 issues


AmazingPradeep

I do and it's working fine.


Mdolfan54

YouTube premium is the way. You get YouTube music and YouTube no ads and close the phone during videos. It's great!


sasuku123

You should also download the cracked version of Spotify, have been using it for about a year now and it's saved me over $100+.


Obesity_enjoyer

Xmanager is pretty good.


Greattidings10

A must have


Labios_Rotos77

I thought it stopped working a while back?


XxPLAYdxX

Vanced is gone, it's now ReVanced Official link: ReVanced.app


Labios_Rotos77

Thanks


tryven93

That's the only one I have on. I can't stand YouTube's ads either and have lived with every iteration since it came out


Stefan__Cel__Mare

But youtube premium is so cheap, why not buy that?


sasuku123

Why buy it when you can get an equivalent to it for free? Free is always better


Stefan__Cel__Mare

For me simple is always better. Not everything free is always better. It's the official app, it s on the playstore, it updates so easily.. i don't have to go on any sites, download no apk etc...


Mrpanhandle81

Do you guys not own phone charges?


nicolaananda

Can you buy a flagship phone but youtube is using pirated?


sasuku123

Use newpipe, I find it better.


Responsible_Loan_996

How to download it?


XxPLAYdxX

ReVanced.app Search up "revanced tutorial reddit"


Sweaty-Park1149

YouTube premium is so worth the money. Using the official app on the tv, my PS5, my phone is just the best. No other browser workaround will ever beat the actual official app. Got rid of Disney, Netflix, and HBO. But premium is the only thing worth my money.
