Samsung Android 11 Vanced Fix

INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE

If you are running into this issue after updating your Samsung to Android 11 then you are at the right spot!

This error is not caused by Vanced. It is caused by Samsung. The update somehow makes it so that Vanced can no longer be found by the package manager but is still installed somewhere in your system.

Sadly you can only fix this issue if you have root or a PC. Otherwise the only way to fix it is to factory reset your phone. Sorry! Blame Samsung!


Prerequisites

You will need

  • EITHER a PC with adb set up - A guide to do this can be found here
  • OR a rooted phone

Uninstalling the leftover Vanced

Luckily we can still remove it via the command line! Once you uninstalled it you can just install it back like usual

Uninstalling the broken Vanced using root

  • First you need a Terminal. I recommend Termux
  • Open it up and run the following command
su -c "pm uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube"

Uninstalling the broken Vanced using adb on your PC

  • Run the following adb command. Unless you added adb to PATH, add a .\ before the command. Having issues? Check our adb Guide
adb uninstall com.vanced.android.youtube
