ok, i searched this thread and didn't find anything on this, though i could have sworn i read of others having similar issues before while keeping up on the thread. anyways, my youtube won't work. it will load and search, but when i try to load a video, it says "There was a problem while playing Touch to retry". i've tried multiple times, over multiple wifi's and over the normal data network, it always says the same thing. i decided to uninstall youtube and try reinstalling it from the market, but the market says that your device is not compatible with this item. i was able to get it from mobilism and reinstall it, but i'm still having the same issue. should i try reinstalling the rom? and if so could i do it without wiping the data or would i have to wipe the data in order for it to hopefully work? its works with through opera, but not the app
bah, sry for the double post, stupid slow laptop, please ignore/close this one

So I know there might be a few threads out there about this but saw that the suggestions from them did not help me. I've started to have issues with downloading anything from the Market. I'd try to dl an app and then it would say download unsuccessful pretty much right away.
I tried clearing cache from the market, factory resetting, permissions, and a few other alternatives. But I tried sending an app from the android market from a computer browser and though it took forever, it downloaded on my phone after about 5-10 minutes. I can't seem to dl directly from my phone.
I also tried signing in with another google account after factory resetting and I seem to be able to dl perfectly from the market. So I assume that it is something to do with my main google account but don't know how to fix the issue since there are no options or settings to reset or fix the problem. Anyone have any ideas?
I just noticed a very weird issue on my sgs2: YouTube app does not work.. I can't view any video. Search don't work. Can't even load up my favorite... it always shows "there was a problem connecting to the network" . Also, when using the browser, trying to connect to connect to www.youtube.com also yield "data connectivity problem. The server failed to communicate. Try again later." I know that the YouTube server is fine... YouTube site and app works perfectly on my galaxy tab 10.1. I'm not sure what could be wrong on my phone... please help!!!!!
I'm not sure if this is related but.... last week my phone had an issue all of a sudden... the Google account stopped working, I couldn't connect to gtalk, gmail don't work, internet browser works but just none of the Google services work. I researched online and found that using an app to fix this issue: htchost. I ran it and it fixed all my Google account issues. I haven't used YouTube at all these days so I'm not sure if this is at all related.
I just tried to run htchost on YouTube but doesn't fix this issue... anyone know what may be causing this??
I'm using xxkg5 ROM with ninphetamine 2.1.3 kernel. Thanks!
have you tried just uninstalling it and reinstalling from market?
YouTube came pre-installed... I can't uninstall it
Check the date and time on your phone. If it doesn't work I guess you'll have to titanium backup your phone and wipe data and cache. Maybe just update the ROM as well.

I'm not too sure what you mean by check the date and time. It's set automatically by the carrier network and it is correct. BTW I updated YouTube from the market, still makes. No difference.
ok I figured out why... it's my hosts file being screwed up by the app... manually editing the hosts file and removed the entries for YouTube fixed the problem

Advice would be to wait for sometime and might be the problem get solved by its own..
Otherwise what you can do is to login to market.android.com with your google credentials and download apps from web market, it will work surely.
It happens with me too sometimes but get resolved by its own.
I prefer downloading apps via web market.
downloading from website is the same as downloading with phone, because the website only works for choosing apps that you want to install, so it will not work for me cause my phone won't do the download. I've tried it.
thank you for reply though..
I have a Live with Walkman (WT19i) that recently has been rooted. I use original live Walkman ROM (gingerbread 2.3.4 build number 4.0.2.A.0.58).
I'm not using any custom ROM, just this original, and never faced any problem at all. The problem started when I found a patch of Google play store on a forum. The steps was to put the apk into the system and change the permission. I guessed I already do the right steps, and then rebooted my phone. But after that, whenever I tried to open the Market, there was an error message 'com.android.vending has stopped working'. I tried to clear data and cache but no luck. I tried to install a lot of different Play Store apk but still the same. after I tried several times, the market opened but when I tried to download, the error popped up again. I cleared data and cache several times. succeeded in open the market again. But when the market told me to agree to the ToS with my email, it FC again.
I got frustrated and then I tried Reset Factory. It wiped all my data, and the worst is after the Reset Factory, I couldn't find the 'market'. It's really made me frustrated. Then I found a similar problem with me at this forum [http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...-com-android-vending-has-stopped-unexpe.html] which tell me to install those apk one by one. The Market is for HTC phone, but it works for me until now. The application stays as 'Market' not "Play Store", I can open and download the apps from there, BUT maybe because the server of that Market is from India (while I'm from Indonesia), sometimes when I browsing/downloading, it took several minutes to loading. AND ALSO whenever I tried to open Paid Applications from market, I got that 'com.android.vending' error message again.
Then I realized that at the very beginning of this Market version, it does asked me to agree with ToS of Market, BUT without a detail of my email, only the agree sentence (While in the Play Store, it comes with current email, right?).
And then I also realized that some applications with my registered email in my phone, such as YouTube has a problem I never faced before this Market problem. When the YouTube ask me to Sign in with my email, I put it in and after that the YouTube FC. I reopen it, and an error appears like this 'an error occurred'. But the YouTube still opened, just that error appears every time I open YouTube.
So I realize that maybe something is wrong with my email in my phone. It is like this:
- The actual Play Store ask to agree with ToS with the email stored on my phone, but it suddenly FC. While my current Market (HTC version) didn't comes with email at the beginning of ToS and doesn't FC.
- Before I got this Market problem, my YouTube always signed in without problem. But now, that 'an error occurred' message always popped up every time I open YouTube but it doesn't FC.
- I realized that when we open a Paid Application from market, it needs our email detail which I think that trigger the error of my market again since it related with email.
BUT there is no error in my Gmail application in my phone. It sync messages like usual. That is I don't know why,
And one thing. For now, whenever I tried to install a Play Store apk, it never succeeded. It always ended "Application not installed".
Only this HTC version of market that I got from that forum could be installed. I don't know why.
I'm really confused right now because I don't know what to do with this since I used my original ROM. I've searched several forum including XDA, but there are only with custom ROM which I'm afraid I couldn't touch it with my original ROM and beside I don't really know much about this kind of problem, only the basic knowledge for rooted phone users. Please help mo to resolve this problem because I really love my phone so much and want it works without problem...
Please help and thank you very much before..
Anyone please..?

Perhaps you should try posting your questions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2054
Since you wiped your data, flash a ftf file with flashtool. It should work, as it has never failed me.
Hey everyone. I recently rooted my son's Nabi 2 using the Nabixus ROM and since then, I can't get YouTube to work. Everything else seems to work ok. But whenever I load YouTube app and try a video, all I get is "Connection to Server Lost. Tap to Retry".
I've gone through the steps for tweaking the Wifi settings, and they don't seem to help. I even tried going through the stock and Chrome browsers to play YouTube with no success. I've wiped to factory and started again, uninstalled updates, and reinstalled all to no avail.
My son loves this tablet, but without YouTube, It may just be a paperweight. Is there another ROM I could try? A CM or something else entirely?
