Wanted to build the new version again but came across this error:

what happened?

[th3an7]

I've fixed that on my fork in these 2 commits:
th3an7@9e71fdd#diff-48d6cd1c79a5aec1b5eec271c81e8cb5a2e62be26545eed15d20a5d0ffaa1a3a
th3an7@90987da#diff-48d6cd1c79a5aec1b5eec271c81e8cb5a2e62be26545eed15d20a5d0ffaa1a3a

If you just want to use the module without building yourself, you can use automatically built debug builds HERE (click artifacts at the top... probably have to uninstall your version first - it's not signed)

Or if you want to build it yourself without setting up gradle/Android Studio on your PC, you can use GitHub actions (with those fixes applied ofc)
https://github.com/th3an7/YouTubeBackgroundPlayback/blob/master/.github/workflows/android.yml
This will run everytime you commit something and upload artifact (just like it does on my fork)

I've added those 2 commits here - pull changes and try to build it again - if it works, then it's fixed and this issue can be closed

If not - then we're gonna worry 🤞

Didn't know GitHub closes issues automatically now...

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
now let me see if it works in practice

[th3an7]

Btw: you don't have to build new .apk everytime hooks get updated - they are automatically pulled from GitHub repo (from those links inside) - only those .json files need to be changed for each new YT version

yeah the build was successful and installation was successful but the app itself isnt working as intended :(

What's wrong? Does background not work? Check xposed/edxposed/logcat logs.
Also check if you've enabled module and you force closed YT app/rebooted device first

where are do i find those logcat logs? i serached and didnt find anywhere

[th3an7]

For logcat you need to use adb (on PC) or terminal emulator (on phone) I think it's `adb logcat` command - it will start showing you whole log in real time - you can log everything to file with `adb logcat > somefile.txt` Start logging and then open YT app so it will save those actions, read why it doesn't work and maybe then we'll find solution

I have no idea then... If there is nothing more in Xposed/EdXposed logs, I guess I can't help you sadly :(

sorry i know this might seem off-topic, but when i try to compile the program again it says device offline, i tried it on other phones and there was no problem, but mine is offline. Cant seem to see the cause.

i revoked usb debugging and conected again, at first it works with adb devices it shows the device, but after i try to build on MY phone it says its offline, then i check adb devices again and it shows that the device is offline (what?). Then i try again and the list is empty. I updated the drivers but it says the best drivers are already installed. What is happening? is this related to root/edxposed?

[th3an7]

Try to install it separately (not right after building with gradle) - try either copying built .apk to your phone memory and installing it there or by using adb install <yourbuild.apk>

Also try restarting adb servier with adb kill-server and adb start-server
