Hi guys.I am running task and phantoms extreme stock rom which is pretty much just normal honeycomb 3.1 without touchwiz. The YouTube app that came with it is v3.1.1.
Its causing me a couple of problems. Firstly, not all videos which appear on YouTube using the browser appear on the app. Example I can watch the official video of a song called black and yellow on the browser but can't find it on the app. Secondly 90% of the videos start with ads. Once the ad finishes,all I get is a button to replay the ad and the actual video does not start. I have turned off safefilter under settings but that didn't help either. What am i doing wrong? Thanks

You might need to delete and reinstall your youtube app.

Hello all. I have been having issues with the HTC youtube app on the Raphael. Running original sprint rom. I am no longer able to play any video in the youtube app. I am able to open the program and search, but as soon as I try to play, I get a "Cannot play this video" error. I have searched high and low for a solution to this; I've tried a couple of so-called resolutions but nothing yet. Any ideas?
edit: One of my friends has the Sprint Touch Pro as well and the youtube app works fine on his. I have tried a hard reset and that seemed to work for a day but then I begin to get the same problem. I REALLY don't want to have to do a hard reset every time I want to view a youtube video!
edit 2: Appears to be a problem with the flashlite cab I downloaded and installed. Did a hard reset and reinstalled all my programs except the flashlite and youtube is now working fine. FYI.

Same Problem as OP.
I have the same problem too. What program did you install for the flash light? Was it the hTorch? Thanks for the help.
Hi
as of today i noticed, that the youtube app on my phone is not playing the videos i request. but instead it always starts the video that seems to be an advertising video for pet tamagochi android app
the old (and modified to download videos [rolletube] ) version also has this behaviour.
i noticed this today, after updating to the latest cm9 nightlie but it is well possible this has been for a while, i haven't been watching youtube for a week
Is my system infected or is there a youtube bug?
Help me please!

I've faced this problem before. Actually, I've figured out it was caused by the proxy apps i used ( Proxy droid and Auto proxy ). I used these apps because the internet service in the university requires authentication which is not supported by android for all apps. The only workaround I've found is after the wrong video get played, press the HD button and the right video will be played now. It worked for me that way but I lost the ability to play the right videos in HD.
I've had this problem since Oct 2011. what's freaking me is that most of the wrong videos it plays are too sexual. I and hundred other users highlighted the issue to Google but no response yet..5 months now waiting for their tech support..
What version of the Youtube app are you running? I've never come across this problem on my phone, and I have a Galaxy like you.
Hello,
I'm using MiniCM10, a great ROM, but, as most of us know, there is no support for flash videos in Jelly Bean. You have to use the Youtube app, which consumes memory, RAM and resources, slowing down the system, while running in the background.
Recently I've found a great browser, which supports html5, and plays the clips flawlessly. All you have to do is to activate html5 at youtube.com/html5, and uncheck the red "HD" option on the clip, and voilla - all the videos play smooth inside the browser.
If you can pass without the Facebook notifications, you can get rid of another crap - facebook app - another memory and resource parasite, running in background.
If you miss those apps, you can always put bookmarks to Youtube and Facebook on the homescreen.
Search for UC Browser for Android in Google Play.
Yes, it is free

Hi.. this is my first post on xda. Not sure if im in the right forum topic.
Im using Note 2 -android 4.1.2.
Ive come across an unusual problem today. I tried streaming videos and none of the videos are playing on both chrome and the defalt internet app. I always used the default browser video player
When a video is clicked to play, the usual black screen appears but thereafter it just keeps loading with the circle going round in the middle (attached screen). But nothing happens. I have not installed any other apps since before nor any other mods.
What I have already tried.
I have resetted app preference under app manager and stil the same issue
Tried installing MX player and tried to load the strea ming video via mxplayer still same issue.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks
Denver

Thanks kenxda will give that a try. .
Hi,
I have been a silent reader/observer of xda forums for a long time now and I thank everyone of the awesome developers out there for giving such good ROMs.
I've been meaning to ask this question for a long time but I was delaying it hoping I can get an answer for it myself. But today after spending close to 5 hrs on this with no answer I decided to ask it here.
I'm a music fan and I'd like to listen to it on my phone as well. I have an HTC One XL with the latest Viper ROM.
I have tried the following options.
1. Downloaded numerous apps (PVStar, NextVid and the likes). Some worked but not to my satisfaction. They're either very laggy or buggy or have unattractive UI to use.
2. Visited sites like youtify.com and tried on various browsers. (Chrome, firefox, UC, Dolphin, Opera etc.) hoping it won't stop playing audio when switched to another app or screen locked. On chrome and all the others it just stops playing audio when you switch to another app. On firefox it works but when screen is locked, audio becomes choppy (app's priority gets lower I think slowly). I tried to search for apps which can keep an app's priority higher but in no vain.
3. I also tried to find alternatives to Youtube like grooveshark app but it just keeps crashing whenever other apps are launched. I also tried Radio apps like TuneIn radio or pandora but you can't search for specific songs there.
P.S: Also some YouTube videos are specifically blocked by Google itself to not stream it to other apps/sites I think. How can we avoid this?
So, basically my problem is I need to be able to search and stream Youtube videos (Preferably have my own saved playlists) on my android phone while the screen is locked or in background while accessing other apps. (I know google is trying to bring 'play in background' feature to YouTube app itself but we can't create playlists there if I'm not wrong). Please suggest me a solution.
Thanks.

Thanks for a lot for the links. Tried both but the first one (Viral) is not so stable. It crashes often and a pain to use. However the second option (Modded youtube APK) seems to be the best option. I can have my own playlists saved in my youtube account and play them using this modded youtube app. The music will continue to play even when screen is locked but the app must be in the foreground. The moment you switch to another app or press home button or even pressing "back" within youtube, it stops.
It's a solution I can live with for now, but I would love to have something which can run even when in background. Suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
[BUMP] Any youtube modded APK?
Trying to bump up this as I wasn't able to find a modded youtube APK which can continue to run in background (i.e. even after pressing home button and accessing other apps). Right now the modded APK only allows screen to be locked but the app should remain in foreground.
And the youtube APK also doesn't play all files in playlist. It plays just one file that we select and stops after that even though there are other items in the playlist.
