Hello to all.
I searched the forum but could not get anything on this.
I have been using this phone (not rooted) for the past 6 months. After the 2.1 update I have seen lot of improvements barring one. The youtube app takes a lot of time for videos to load, and when it does, it pauses a lot, so much that a 10 mins video takes half an hour to watch. Is this normal, or problem with my phone only?

so i have had my phone for 11 days now and it's been a very good phone (coming from a blackberry, iphone 3g, now this) but today I have noticed some real peoblems. Besides going threw 3 sim cards in less then 2 weeks but my phone has been freezing up alot today about 5 time and the only way I could get it back working was to take the battery out Any ideas?
During freezing I was playing angry birds, surfing the web, going threw android market, running speed test. I am getting "force close" alot also when getting on the XDA app(during loading latest topics) Thanks for any input!

Looks like you have to do some trouble shooting. When the FCs started have you installed any application recently that may cause that like a task killer or a launcher app like Launcher pro, ADW EX, Go launcher? If not there are so many bad apps in the market that can cause force closes. I would factory wipe your phone. Of course all your settings and customizations are gone then; so be careful what you have to save before doing that. I would try the phone for some hours without any app from the market. If you still get force closes it is most likely the phone. If everything is ok...start to install all your apps but little by little so that you can pin point the bad app.
I have launcher pro. I will remove it and see what happens

Launcher Pro probably isn't your problem as most of the people I know with atrix's use it.
On my Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7510, my Youtube app all of a sudden stopped showing my subscription videos on the home page. I tried factory resetting, flashing a new rom, wiping the data for Youtube, nothing. Instead whenever I launch the Youtube app the home page shows me Recommendations from 2007. It also force closes on every other video I try watching This issue just started today, and its very annoying. Any help?
Edit: So I checked the comments on the market for Youtube and it appears that many other people are experiencing the same issues I am ugh I guess I just have to wait until Google fixes this then. Mods delete this thread please >.<
Is there a fix for this as yet? I started getting it within the last few hours as well. I'm practically pulling my hair out

I've heard iPad owners complaining about this in the last 24 hours. I'd wait it out for a bit.
Searched through the forums and I see where everyone is having 4G YouTube issues, but I don't see a fix for it.
Has anything developed?
Right now I am using a work around and playing all my YouTube videos through NextVid.
It's a nice alternative. Still, it bothers me that one of the most popular stock apps doesn't work.
Don't have this problem. Just watch 2 videos on the YouTube app.

I am having issues to. A brief search shows that some are and some arn't. HTC is trying to find some correlation but no luck from what I can tell. Others have reported that it cleared within a few days, while others has worked fine then about two or three days ago it stopped.
I openned youtube about 30 minutes ago and clicked a video and let it sit. After about 3 minutes it started playing. This is very frustrating as I use youtube a ton.
BTW: I am in North Alabama on 4G.
What is NextVid?
YouTube 3rd party app. Has a little viewer that I think just renders the webpage. Not very impressive but works.
By any chance are your running a different rom. I installed a few last night and the ics roms worked fine. The GB rom i tried did not work.
What exactly is the issue?

When on 4g it can take up to 5 minutes to start a video. I have not had this problem with any of the ICS Roms, only the GB Roms. Videos start right up when on wifi, 3g, or 1x but when on 4g the app starts but when you go to launch a video the spinny ball thing (technical name) comes up for 3 to 5 minutes and just spins. The video will eventually start but 5 minutes to start seems like a long time. It still buffers the video when when it starts so it is not like it is doing a complete buffer before it starts.
I have wiped the app, deleted cache, reinstalled app, etc. Nothing works. Only thing I know works is going to an ICS Rom which I was not extremely happy with.
Besides this issue, I have no other problems with 4g.
Issues have been fixed with the latest update, I believe
I watched at least 20 HD YouTube videos last night via 4G with no apparent long delays starting up using the newly updated YouTube app.
I bought on launch day and had YouTube over 4G problem where the stocck app didn't work but It was fixed by VZ in like 2 days. It was some kind of network block not the phone or the app.
This was not network related. It had something to do with the app. It worked fine on ICS roms but on GB roms it took for ever to load. After the last youtube update, all is working fine.
Do you have the same problems with the video load times going straight to youtube.com VS using the APP? The Youtube APP for me even with the Droid X was always buggy but going straight to the website loaded vids alot faster for me
web site had the same issues. Only nextvid would work.
I got a freeze of the device.
I was watching YouTube redirected via Opera Mini.
The sound was ON, everything else freezed. I had to restart the phone.
Is this a YouTube issue?
Yea it is, i occured many times, but on other site that were not a problems.

I had the same problem a few times with the stock firmware (.62 I think.. or .63 ) and with the newer .73 I never had that issue. And I use youtube very often!
At mine it was the same: Everything else than sound just freezed, no button-press was recognized -> restart with [Vol UP]+[Power]. I could not reproduce it, it just happened about one time in two days or so..
I had something remotely similar several times:
When watching a video fullscreen and trying to jump back in time the video output would freeze, when rotating the phone back the normal YouTube interface would come back but the video portion would stay the same as fullscreen.
After a while a window pops up asking me whether I wanted to force close, when I choose close only the fullscreen video part is gone but YouTube is still running and responding...
I didn't have the phone freeze from this though.
edit: I'm on .67 Austrian A1 stock firmware.
Same for me :-S
And
even with one stuck,
i can reload another one
So,
"two" in same time
It happened on mine as well. I called Sony Mobile Canada to report this issue and the web browsing causing the phone to reboot. She said she will escalate it because it is a software issue. For now, I will be returning my Xperia S until they fix these issues. I can live without youtube for awhile but the web browser crashing the phone is unacceptable, IMO.

I had the same issue. Even when I pressed home button while watching one video I still could hear audio from this video and even Force stop wouldn't help.
People do you have same issue as I have in the SKYPE video calls on landscape mode ? People can see me but I cant see my preview? I only can see little square with some of my video

I have a clean 4.03 R5a install from 6 month or so, i use the tablet only for Chrome , no apps, no installs, no downloads, just web browsing, everyday it's more slow than even and now it's almost imposible to open two tabs at one, i wonder if somebody try to use the app called "LagFix" or what kind of app can help me to get the tablet as fast as six month ago
Hi,
I have been using it but did not find any noticeable improvement. Sometimes after using lagfix the tablet works fine for some minutes and then the lag shows up again.
In my case, the lag is related to high values of Iowait. Unfortunately, there's no way of identitying the process responsible for this behavior.
