Hello,
Thx for the app but can we log into the acount or not ?
Thx for the reply
Hi,
We cannot log into google account if the Google Play Services are not installed on the device.
I just wanted to say that it doesn't work with play services. I'm not sure if that is intentional or a bug

No download section? which you can download the videos damn
thank you, it is very good.
I installed this on my car head unit, which has no google services, the normal youtube app wont work,
this one works , but the quality option only allow me to choose up to 360p, is there anyway to set it higher? the car unit capable play up to 1080p videos thru mx player
I've checked settings, the HD is enabled for both wifi and 3G, but still no HD options
a HD force enable version would be great, is it possible to make?
the car head unit android version is 4.1.1 by the way, I read somewhere that youtube app only allow higher quality option on version 4.4.2 or later, I wouldn't want to root and mod build.prop, it will be troublesome to fix the unit if something went wrong and bricked
Great app! Are you planning on doing updates?
I can't install it pls help

This guide will enhance your privacy and take your battery life to the next level.
We will be replacing Google Cloud Messaging and Play Services with microG which is an open-source alternative. It strips identifying data and only sends basic info such as account name to Google while anonymizing the rest. Privacy-caring users can reduce or monitor data that is sent to Google and users can expect some battery life improvements. Find more about it here.
1. Uninstall all Google apps from system except GooglePackageInstaller, GoogleExtServices & GoogleExtShare. Reboot. Make sure these apps have been removed:
Code:
Phonesky/Play Store
Google Services Framework
Gsmcore/Play Services
Velvet, Chrome, Youtube, Sync Adaptors, Backup Transport
All other pre-installed/downloaded Google Apps
2. Uninstall all Google Apps installed as user apps in Settings/Applications. At this point you should not have any Google applications installed.
3. Download microG Services Core & GsfProxy. Install them as user apps.
4. Now we need a Play Store. Install Fake Store from here to fulfill this requirement and use Yalp Store [ open-source Play Store ] for downloading applications.
5. You also need Signature Spoofing. Use either method below and reboot:
(a) If you have Xposed, use this module.
(b) If you are on Nougat and have a deodexed rom then use this guide to enable signature spoofing.
6. Go to Settings and grant all permissions to microG. Open microG and enable Google device registration & Cloud Messaging respectively. Use Self-Check to make sure everything looks good.
7. For location services to work with high accuracy, download an open-source location backend e.g Mozilla and enable it in microG Settings. Reboot.
8. Add a Google account through device settings.
9. Done! You can now install any applications [Google/Non-Google]
FAQs
Q. Why is it not working?
A. Are you sure you rebooted? Did you remove GAPPS? OK. Now, ask!

I have posted this after testing it for 2 weeks
as im not in one of those YT Kids app supported regions, i installed the app with APK (from apkmirror.com) and enjoyed it for over a year already.. however, today suddenly i realised that the app icon disappeared in my launcher drawer.. it was there a few hours ago and in between the period i didnt reboot the phone, didnt install or update any app, didnt touch any files in my phone..
i checked "/data/app" directory, and there was the "com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids-1" directory with all files intact.. i tried to re-install the apk and it went without any problem.. and there was a new "/data/app/com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids-2" directory created with all files same as the previous installation.. but the app icon just did not appear in the drawer..
i tried to switch to the stock launcher, and the app icon was still missing..
now im out of ideas for what could go wrong.. any suggestion for me?
tia..
Same thing happend to me (Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Stock 7.0), nu luck with previous versions of Youtube Kids either..
Same here. Galaxy S8. What has happened? Maybe recent Google instant app has something to do with it ?
Hi, same issue here on a Lenovo tablet and Galaxy S7, both running android 7.x. App appears to be gone from the app list and only by installing an app uninstaller i am able to remove it. Same problem when trying to install older versions of the YT Kids. I can install but i can't run it or see it in the app list.
On an older device runing kitkat the icon is still there with no problems, so i would guess this may be a new feature on the google services or so. They may now be enforcing regional limitations. Any info on that?
Unfortunately same thing here. Samsung tab A 2016 !
Same hete, but went here https://kids.youtube.com
Clicked to get it then app store opened he app and was able to enable it

it still redirects to play store, and thus app availability is still subject to regions..
I can only confirm the problem ( Galaxy A5 2017 running Nougat)
Seems like a server side or Nougat upgrade issue.
I have exactly same symptoms. app icon is missing, side-loaded app installs but does not register properly so it does not appear in app list, and can be uninstalled only with third party app (e.g. ES File explorer)
Hope there will be a solution to run YT Kids once again in regions where it's not officially supported.
Hopefully someone can make a modded apk version without a region check.

i dont think the check is done in the app itself, probably its done in the framework..
cos i have not updated the app, and suddenly it went from working to disappearance, so i guess something in the underlying google framework changed..
Okay, so maybe someone knows a simular app. I didn't found one yet, after ours of searching and installing
---------- Post added at 08:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------
I installed a lot of different versions of yt kids and sometimes he wil open after installation and after a few second he stopps working. But the icon never apears from two weeks ago. The disapearing happend on the same day by my phone, from my wifes phone and my mother in laws phone?
Yeah, sad Google starts to execute regional restrictions more strictly. :crying:
The latest version 2.28.14 have new logo but won't run although it installs almost fine except no icon.
Therefore you should use 3rd party app to uninstall defunct app (e.g. ES File Explorer).
It seems it's gone for good. Check thread below:

S3 mini - android 4.1 stock - YTKIDS working
Tab 3 8" - android 4.2 stock - YTKIDS working
P8 lite - android 6 stock - YTKIDS working
P9 lite 2017 - android 7 stock - YTKIDS not working
So... Must be something with the Nougat that blocks YouTube kids.

thx ic..
It is firmware related. I have TAB S2 for my daughter with Nougat and on previous version of firmware YK works OK - installed from APK mirror, but updated firmware (just new version - still Nougat 7.0) deletes icon from launcher
So, anyone found a solution to this, same here Samsung galaxy Tab A8 2017, and Note 8
it seems it is because of Android N
Everyone knows our Poco doesn't support L1 by default with Netflix. Few shared tweaks or modified Netflix HD version etc which all never worked for me. Somehow I got this Pixel 4 XL props which actually changes our device props to Pixel and voila. Netflix is working in full hd and HDR support. You need to flash this via Magisk.
Credit to Pixelprops for sharing it on Telegram.
Only drawback, the colors are saturated on Google chrome browser which doesn't bother me as I use Firefox.
This has been tested on Havoc 3.2 latest rom with stock kernel. I've attached screenshot from the Netflix app showing it's full HD support and HDR. You need to be on L1 for this to work. You can check what widevine support your phone shows by installing drminfo app from Playstore. If it's showing L1, you can proceed with the installation. If it shows L3, you need to flash MIUI first, boot into that rom and than flash any custom rom.
Please be aware this might not work on all roms and in some roms this can cause bootloops, I'm not responsible for your phone. Do backup before flashing this via Magisk.
Edit: uploaded August Pixel 4 XL props. Test and report back if it works. Thanks.

Playback not working, getting black screen ?
Edit : IT doesn't work because pixel 4 rom doesn't have orignal poco f1 widevine L1 props
Man thank you. You just saved me from a lot of headache!
I just flashed your zip over latest MIUI stable global Q6.0 and its working flawlessly! Got Netflix HD just like that.
Kudos for this post and helping me out. I was literally stuck using custom roms just because I couldn't get L1 on MIUI but your zip changed that!
I couldn't thank you enough

yeah I just wish we didn't have to deal with this Netflix fiasco with poco, but it's already too late. I talked to Netflix support for hours to no end. their customer support goes silent Over the mere mention of Widevine certification and would rather have you troubleshoot network and other meaningless stuff.

Did you need to fix the fingerprint by changing the props for the brand Xiaomi and then choosing for Pocophone F1, or do you need to change and impose the props of the Google brand and after that choose for the Pixel 4 model?
You see I am still confused on how to get HD in Netflix....
By flashing the zip in TWRP over the newwest ROM,, I was able to turn Poco f1 in Pixel 4, but for me it was not enough to get HD in Netflix. So what else do I need to do to get HD?

First check by drminfo app if it's L3 or L1. If L1 than proceed to uninstall Netflix, flash the zip via Magisk ( Not twrp) and reboot. Reinstall Netflix, hide it via Magisk manager and than login. It should be full HD now.
If DRM info shows L3 you need to flash MIUI boot into MIUI and than flash back the custom rom you use.

Open the playstore app.
under Settings, you scroll all the way down. At the section About you see in the last item called Play Protect Certification.
It says:
Device is not certified.
Is this the case for my pocophone F1 only, or for all poco F1 users?

this started showing ever since Ctsprofile began to fail on almost all custom roms. it also failed on miui global latest 11.6.0 update and playstore was showing unsupported device. however, it doesn't effect hdr status inside Netflix as far as I know. if you can get your rom setting to show that it's some device other than poco (like pixel 4) then you should have hdr support regardless of playstore status.
just flash the module, reboot, clear your app data and cache and you should be good to go. in fact, that's exactly how I was able to run Netflix hd on miui latest global though as already mentioned it breaks miui camera app and you have to disable and reboot device to be able to use camera again or just use any custom gcam.
good luck!

Cts failing on all roms cause Google changed something from their end. Magisk needs to be updated for that which will happen shortly once the dev able to figure out what changes Google did. It doesn't effect Netflix as of now. It's still working in hd for me. My rom was certified and automatically it's changed to not certified few days ago. Found out about this when many users reported that even it's not certified in MIUI too.

So I can finally watch Netflix in HD.
At first your instructions did not work for me.
At some point I just decided to start from scratch. So I formatted and completly reinstalled the last ROM. Then I followed your instructions and... boom!
Thanks so much for your instructions:

Does any of you have the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications System option on your mi 10 ultra (Chinese ROM)?
https://support.google.com/android/answer/9888358?hl=en
I live in Portugal and I can't get the STAYAWAY CODIV app to work because I don't have this "Exposure Notifications" option.
It was not on mine. Mine came with a small hacked version of GMS without it. When I flashed the EU ROM, it was then installed. I would presume that if you install full GMS on your Chinese ROM that it should then be available or move to the EU ROM.
what do you mean by installing full GSM?

I tried installing the latest google services on the Chinese rom, but I was not succesful, and thus couldn't get a Covid-19 notification app to work. The API for Covid-19 exposure notifications doesn't seem to be present in the Chinese ROM version. Install the EU rom and this problem is solved, the latest version of google services comes with that and the app will work.

As far as I'm aware, the latest EU rom should have solved the safetynet problem and thus the hdr playback. I haven't tested that yet, but will soon.
It'll be interesting to see if the MIUI team will make the Google services run better for the Covid API to work (properly) on the Chinese rom. Not sure whether the Chinese have such an app as well.

Actually I think the COVID API cannot be enabled due to missing systemised Google apps. I have a Mi Pad 4 (another device without Global Rom) and I flashed it with OpenGapps on the Chinese rom. CoronaMelder can be enabled and works well.
I tried to flash OpenGApps in the same way but failed due to the dynamic system partition. The space of system paritition is ALWAYS insufficent. I will try to systemise some Google apps with Magisk modules this weekend and see if it works.
