Wanted to stop the false info being spread about the latest update, the YouTube app is having an issue with some ice devices, but will be fixed soon. Again, this is not due to the Prime update, non ics-Prime owners are reporting the same issue. Please don't jump to conclusions without researching first. YouTube was working fine until the last hour or so, should be fixed soon.
Update: The Youtube app issue has now been fixed by Google. however, some may experience slow load up/buffering. Please be patient, Google will have our favorite video sharing site up and running at 100% shortly.

Ok thanks. So this has nothing to do with software but a backend server thing?? Just like I want my MTV, I want my YouTube!
No, the issue started happening a few hours ago..it was working file on my prime before...Moto Xoom users n others are having the same issue now...its been reported and will be fixed soon.
At least its confirmed so far to be working through Chrome Beta and Dolphin HD browser. So you can still get your you tube fix

Good point but I thought I heard the app doesn't use it also. Must be something with the app specific server or something. YouTube usually plays better through the app so i wouldn't think it would be flash. Probably HTML 5 also.

I still have my moto Xoom, my wife has the Samsung tab...both are force closing..go to the Xoom forums here as well as the galaxy forum. Issue was reported to Google, some server updates on their end caused the issue, which is being looked into
Got the following devices in front of me:
- Asus Transformer Prime - Youtube app not working (Force close)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Youtube app not working (Force close)
- OG Asus Transformer - Youtube app not working (Force close)
- Galaxy S i9000 - Youtube app working
- Galaxy Nexus - Youtube app working
- Motorola Atrix - Youtube app working
- Samsung Captivate - Youtube app working
You be the judge.
The Youtube app have been acting glitchy ever since the update prior to the last.
It gitters a lot after launching to the homepage. 3 days ago I noticed some videos would display a scrambled distorted picture when I tried to go full screen on them.
and today prior to updating to the most recent firmware update from ASUS I noticed the Youtube app just crash when I try to playback any video.
Needless to say the current firmware update does not address the Youtube issue in anyway.
So keep this thread bumped and alive so we can hopefully get this fixed for us.
My sgs ics rom seems to have no problem except reading subscription but prime can't play a single video atm...

hi all I was just curious if anyone knows if the new Netflix app is working on the Thunderbolt or not. I assume it would but the thunderbolt is not listed on the netflix web site as a supported phone for this app, even though 3 other HTC phones are listed and are older tech than the Thunderbolt. I tried to install it but they want me to start an account with them first and I'm not opening a Netflix account unless I know for sure this will work on My thunderbolt. I'd appreciate any information anyone has on this,.. thanks!!
there are hacked netflix APKs out there that work on the thunderbolt

The Netflix app will not work with any ROMs based off the official Thunderbolt RUUs as of now.
I was so mad when my boyfriend's Incredible would stream Netflix, and my newer Thunderbolt WON'T. He doesn't even use his phone. He fixed it so he can use wireless tethering..and uses his ipod touch! That's what made me so pissed off about it. I actually want to be able to watch Netflix on mine! Maybe one day soon =(
yeah This fairly well annoys me as well.. I purposefully bought the highest end phone I could find with the latest technology and it can't run the netflix app while the older models can,.. sounds kinda backasswards to me... really bugs me
Would love to have this working. Til then I guess I'll just have to use it on my DX

If you are rooted you can trick the app into thinking you are using one of the phones that are listed. I think i read about the trick on android central if i find the link i will post it.

Don't think so, so far its only working if your running CM7 I believe.
Has anyone on here used CM7? I loaded it one day and nothing really worked on it. I couldn't get on the internet or anything... sounds like to a waste to run CM7 just to use netflix
Netflix does work on cm7 and will be supported on the thunderbolt soon. The reason why it wasn't initially is because the phone is new and Netflix didn't have time to test it on our devices. Just give it some time and you all will be rewarded.

My understanding is that they are waiting til after the Revolution comes out to activate it for LTE phones. Its one of the selling points of the Revolution so it will probably be exclusive to that for a month or so. Just speculating though.
Google Currents is the new big thing from Google. It allows you to view your favorite news and media pages in a magazine style format. This runs great on Android tablets, especially the HP Touchpad! Check it out:
On the Android Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.currents
Saw this on Android Central, and grabbed it right away.
Ill be honest, I've been kinda neglecting my TP lately. After loading Currents and getting it set up, I didn't want to put it down.
This feels like exactly what the tablets were meant for.

I'm on XRON B1.3 but moved to that from Alpha3 to see if it'd fix the problem I was having given that there have been some fixes in XRON since the latest core CM7. In both cases Currents locks up for me until I get the "Not responding. Wait/Force Close/Report" dialog. I can wait as many times as I want, but it doesn't come back. If I FC then it restarts Currents but it happens again shortly after browsing around.
I think I've seen the same behavior in Google Reader which I have installed to support the Android Pro Google Reader widget, though not nearly as frequently.
I've performed a completely clean reinstall (wipe system and data in addition to cache), and I've done the whole fix permissions and wipe Dalvik/cache partition thing repeatedly.
I'm really impressed by Currents (I also run it on my iPhone and Nook Color) and think it really makes the 10" tablet profile shine! I'm hoping someone can help me figure out why it's locking up frequently on the TP.
I had the force closing problems in alpha 3 but after I switched to alpha 2 everything seems to be working fine.
Sent from my HP Touchpad using XDA App
using cm7 a3 and i'm getting a lot of force closes recently. it seems to be sporadic since i didn't get them at until the other day. i'm patient with the force closes since i'm really just waiting for ICS.
I'm currently using alpha 2.1 and have not had a force close on this app yet.
seems to work perfectly for me
I'm getting FCs on Currents constantly to the point where its almost unuseable. I was alpha 2, in place upgrade to alpha 3. Everything else seems stable.

When I use a qvod player app it has problems loading the video. And when I used another app it said it couldn't be played after I tried to skip into the video. It only happened to me in ICS. Rooted and nonrooted. I was rooted then messed up and had to load the official update to do my school work and what not. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem or know how to fix it.

Did you check the bit rate of the video that you are trying to play? In the ICS update Sony dropped the bit rate of video playback from 24Mbps to 10Mbps. You may have to reformat the video to get it to play.
Ah. I never checked. I don't know how to check. It usually streams on the app though. I wonder why they dropped it? Every video was working fine on honeycomb.

I recommend freemake video converter. It will let you change the bit rate. Just Google it lol

Well, if it works after you reboot, but then stops working again (forcing you to reboot), something must be happening between those two times. Are you launching any particular apps, changing any particular settings? Have you tried checking things like dmesg/logcat?
My tablet s is not rooted, originally 4.0.3.
I cant remember what app i launched between those two times, but i think probably it is because i unplug my headphone
Why is this in the development section?!?
Hey everyone, happy holidays . so today i noticed that when i docked my prime to the keyboard and went into the youtube app the fullscreen button didnt show up! i undocked it and BAM there it is, dock it again there it goes. anyone else having this problem? and is there a solution?

Mine does the exact same thing. Must be a bug in the application.

It's a problem with the YouTube app. It works just fine if the tab is undocked (not in the keyboard dock).

If its really bugging you revert to the original app by uninstalling the update in the app management settings

Google search 'youtube 4.1.47 apk' to download a good version that works in full screen.
It is there, but you have to undock and sometimes rotate to get it to show up. It is a bug, I'm sure it'll be fixed.

I've only been using my TF recently for YouTube and imagine my dismay when I finally upgraded to JB 4.2.1 tonight and found the full screen option missing.
After a quick look I discovered that it's not a bug, it's a feature that was added.
Not to worry though, here's a version to try out with the feature disabled. :fingers-crossed:
I take no responsibility for this if it breaks something.
Thanks all for the comments and suggestions and wait what 4.2.1??

Ok, sounds like the traditional issues people have with Google TV. I already ordered the Asus Cube instead of the VIZIO Co-Star (or the expensive Sony Internet Player). My only hope is that I'm able to install Tunnelbear from the play store, or install the APK from dropbox or an external source in order to get US content, if not, I'll find a use for it.
Thanks for the quick feedback.

iwillkillyou, how's the cube working out for you? i'm on the fence with either buying the vizio costar or the asus cube. those seem to be the most popular gtv boxes. the sony one is just too more than i want to pay.
i have had the logitech revue for close to a year, but the repeated app crashes (netflix is the worst) are so annoying. the sluggishness of the entire device is also very annoying. why they stuck so little memory and such a poor processor into it is beyond me.
anyway, i'd really appreciate if you could share your experiences withe asus cube. thank you so much.
