I've always used revanced, so what does RVX has more to offer that revanced?

Hi Everyone! 👋

I know there are lots of guides out there for patching YouTube and YouTube Music. Although the process is basically the same for Reddit, there are some extra steps you need to follow to get Reddit RVX up and running. That's why I decided to make this post.

This is the 👉 Guide for YouTube ReVanced Extended, if that's what you're looking for.

Note: There are several methods for patching Reddit RVX. I'm going to stick with just 2 methods in this post.

Things you need beforehand

• RVX Manager by inotia00

• AntiSplit-M (For converting .apkm to .apk file) from GitHub.

• Termux - For Method 2.

MicroG-RE or any other GmsCore fork aren't needed for Reddit RVX App.

Method 1

1. Install RVX Manager by inotia00. After installing, go to Patcher > Select an app > click on Suggested (Version). It will redirect you to APKMirror where you need to download the Reddit APK.

Always go for the recommended version as it is more stable.

2. Now here's where AntiSplit-M comes in. Download and install it. Open the app > Settings icon (bottom right corner) > File Save Method drop-down menu > Choose "Same Directory as selected file" > Uncheck "Show dialog allowing selection of which splits to include" > Check "Automatically select splits for your device specifications" > Check "Force Merging and Sign the APK as well" > Close.

3. Select "Split APK to Merge/AntiSplit" and now navigate to your Reddit .apkm file and choose it.

4. It will ask where to save your .apk final file. Choose your destination path and click save.

5. Wait for the app to complete the process of converting the Reddit .apkm file to a Reddit .apk file.

6. It will show "File saved successfully".

7. Now go back to RVX Manager > Patcher > Select an app > Storage and choose your Reddit .apk file.

8. Click on Patches and select the 'default' option.

Note: DO NOT SELECT "CHANGE PACKAGE NAME". You should not change the package name.

• Keep the original package name as it is: com.reddit.frontpage

Why?

• As of writing this post, there's a bug in that patch which won't let you log in to Reddit. However, Method 2 using ReVancify in Termux might mitigate this issue.

• More information here 👉 GitHub Discussion. Maybe this patch will be fixed by inotia00 very soon. I don't know much about this. Hopefully, it will be fixed by the time you're reading this post in the future.
  ​

Bonus Tip: If you don't want Google Play Store to auto-update Reddit, enable Universal Patches in the RVX Manager Settings tab and include the "Change Version Code" patch. 🤞

Note: DO NOT SELECT "Disable edge-to-edge display" patch. Uncheck this patch if you're Android 14 or lesser.

• If you're Android 15 or greater then Choose this patch.

Why?

• This patch will make Reddit RVX App Crash if you're Android 14 or below.

• For More in-depth Info, Refer patch inotia00/ReVanced_Extended#2859

9. Click Done > Patch. The process will finish, and Method 1 is complete.

Method 2

This method uses the ReVancify Tool with the Termux App

1. Download and install the Termux app and open it.

2. Type termux-setup-storage to give storage permission to the Termux App.

3. Now Type this Single Line Code/Command 👇

curl -sL https://github.com/decipher3114/Revancify/raw/refs/heads/main/install.sh | bash

(This will install ReVancify, it'll take a few seconds to install it. Note: This Code can occasionally change, so if it doesn't work, refer to Inotia00 Documentation or Decipher3114.)

4. Now, Type revancify.

5. From the Revancify menu, select "Change Source" and select "ReVanced-Extended". Then, press Done.

6. Select "Update Assets" to download the latest CLI and patch files.

7. Select "Patch App" and choose the app Reddit to auto-download and patch. From the Version Selection Menu, choose the "Auto Select" option or a version labeled [RECOMMENDED].

8. If the download feature doesn't work, follow the steps on this page. Then, move the APK you downloaded into Internal storage > Revancify > Stock. Return to Revancify and press Import to import the APK you placed in the Stock directory.

9. Choose patches to include or exclude. If you aren't sure, just press Recommended. Here, you can try the "change package name" patch, but it was not working for me (Reddit Login Failed).

The patch options to be selected are basically the same as those in Method 1. Always double-check if you want to include a certain patch or not based on the current latest patch release notes from Inotia00.

10. After you're done choosing > Click on Done/Patch. Hopefully, it all goes well without issues, and the final patched APK file will be saved in your internal storage/ReVancify/Patched folder.

Uninstall the original Reddit app and then install this Reddit RVX app. Why? Because the package name is not changeable as of now due to the login bug. You are forced to keep the original package name if you want to properly log in to your Reddit account.

Verdict

• Choose Method 1, if you're not comfortable with the emulated CLI type Termux interface.
  ​

• Choose Method 2, if you don't want to deal with .apkm to .apk conversion and want the process to be mostly automated and smooth.

Personally, at first, I found ReVancify (Method 2) intimidating, but trust me, it's awesome that it's automated, it'll do everything for you, like downloading the app, converting, and patching.

Thank you. Enjoy your ad-free Reddit RVX! 😊

I am using both NewPipe and Revanced Extended, and I liked using RVX so far. But i wonder its worth continuing considering the project is over?
