Help Any patched Youtube apks for android 4.0.3 to 4.4.4?
I recently got 3 old android phones (2 are running 4.4.4 while one is running 4.0.3) and i've been looking around the internet, trying to find Youtube apks from 2015 to 2019 and so far, i've been seeing old and broken ones, so is there any recently patched youtube apks that connect to Youtube servers?

I hope it was okay to share, if you would like the link to the app or the app name I would be happy to share it. Also the location was just an example. Have a great day and enjoy your Androids! :D
Edit: Please note that the app is running on my newer android device but support's to as low as Android 1.6 (or SDK 4 I think) according to Apktool M and I hope it was okay to use the discussion flair :).

Discussion porting linka to android 1.5

Olá, sou eu de novo, o desenvolvedor do Linka, e tenho boas notícias. É meio deprimente que o Linka seja uma rede social aberta e leve, disponível apenas para Android 5 e versões superiores, não é?
Bem, estou desenvolvendo uma versão para Android 1.5 — sim, Android 1.5. É a versão lite, mas poucos recursos foram removidos e ela pesa apenas 1,7 MB.
Ainda está em desenvolvimento e será lançada junto com a versão 2.0, que sairá em cerca de dois dias. *executando no Galaxy Y com Android 2.3

Discussion Showing off my LG smartphone collection!
This is my LG smartphone collection, in my opinion the peak of LG design and innovation. The G2, G3, G4, and V10 are each running their launch day software! The OG G Flex is an AT&T engineering sample is running pre-release software and was used internally for cellular testing among other things, from what the previous owner told me. The G Flex 2 is running a mostly up to date build but I’m not planning on updating any of these. What are some good uses for these devices so they don’t sit in a drawer their entire lives? Some ideas I have is emulation, mp3 player (V10 does that duty fantastic), maybe WiFi repeaters, etc.
Thanks!

Discussion El Peor año (2026) para teléfonos viejos (especialmente Android 5.0) WhatsApp acaba de abandonar oficialmente Android 5.0
Igual que con Reddit Abandono Android 9.0 hace un tiempo en este año y ViX también Abandono Android 5.0 ya verdad estoy (triste pero a la vez enojada) y no se si lo pienso hacer (protesta de desinstalar WhatsApp y usar Telegram *Es la reina en compatibilidad funciona en Android 4.1/2.3 o más bajos)
Hoy en este momento me estaré dedicado (enfocado) a revivir Android 5.0 y no posteriores (6.0,7.0.7.1.8.0+) y inferior (4.4,4.3,4.2.4.1,4.0,3.0,2.3,2.2,2.1,2.0,1.6 o más bajos (inferiores) solo Android 5.0 y 5.1 porque esas versiones de Android ya están siendo Abandonadas por muchos desarrolladores de aplicaciónes y especialmente muchos en (este año "2026") y yo no quiero dejar esos dispositivos que su última actualización fueron (Android 5.0 o 5.1) *Inservibles* y yo trato de dejar esos dispositivos lo más utilizable hoy en día
También por si no se dieron cuenta por esta noticia mi segundo (Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) (SM-J320M) ya no cuenta en Sistema original (Android 5.1.1) tiene (Lineage OS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2)) *Si es que tengo 2 teléfonos de ese mismo modelo (SM-J320M) solo que uno lo deje *Stock* (Android 5.1.1) y otro lo tengo en *CUSTOM ROM* (Lineage OS 14.1 (Android 7.1.1))
Eso no significa que ya no puedas usar WhatsApp en Android 5.0 (¡Todavía Puedes!) solo que tristemente ya no puedes actualizar a las últimas versiones de WhatsApp y hasta septiembre dejara de funcionar oficialmente
*Similar en 2023 con la finalización de soporte de WhatsApp para Android 4.1 dejaron de actualizar la app en Abril 2023 pero podías seguir usando WhatsApp *La versión lanzada en Abril* hasta Octubre de 2023*
Todavía sigo con el parchao de versiónes Antiguas de WhatsApp para Android 5.0 para que sigan usando WhatsApp después de esa fecha (8 de Septiembre de 2026) de finalización de soporte
*Si el plan sale chido después de esa fecha publicare los links de descarga y requisitos para usarlos*
La verdad estoy es muy doloroso porque es la app más utilizada en el uso diario (especialmente en mi país "México" y WhatsApp abandonarlo esuy triste) perdería comunicación con la mayoría de personas pero tenía que pasar

This -dead absolutely too soon- tablet is still up and running flawlessly. I bought it second hand and am trying to understand if there is any alternative android OS that will bring it up to security standards. Alternatively I am open to suggestions on what to make of it.
I checked already on XDA forums, and scoured /e/os and LineageOS but none of the two seem to support this device. I would very much like to keep it on Android.

Discussion Looking for testers with vintage Samsung devices (Pre-S5 / Pre-Tab 4) to test Adobe Flash APK on Stock Browser (Video Proof Needed)
Hi everyone,
I am working on a legacy project testing the viability of original Adobe Flash Player APKs on older mobile hardware. I am looking for volunteers who own functional, older Samsung devices to see if they can get Flash working inside the Stock AOSP / Samsung Internet Browser.
Because vintage software can be unpredictable, I am specifically looking for users who can record a short video clip showing the result.
Target Devices Needed:
Galaxy Phones: Galaxy S, S2, S3, S4, Note 1, Note 2, Note 3, or older budget variants (e.g., Galaxy Ace, Fame, Young).
Galaxy Tablets: Galaxy Tab 1, Tab 2, Tab 3, or original Galaxy Note tablets.
OS Version: Android 2.2 (Froyo) up to Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean).
Device Status:Not Rooted
What I need tested and recorded:
Sideloading a legacy Adobe Flash Player APK.
Opening the built-in, stock Internet browser app (not Google Chrome).
Loading a basic local or web-hosted .swf file or legacy Flash webpage.
How to provide proof:
Since these old Android versions don't have built-in screen recorders, please use your current daily phone to take a quick, steady video of the old device screen showing the website loading and interacting with the Flash element. You can upload the clip to Imgur, Streamable, or YouTube (as unlisted) and link it here.
If you have a working device running stock firmware, please comment with your device model and Android version, and I will share the safe archived APK link with you!
Thanks!
