Hi,
for some reason I can not open youtube links with my youtube app anymore. It used to be like I was able to choose whether I would like to open the link with my brother or with youtube. Now for some reason I can only choose between Android Browser and Opera. Youtube option is gone. I have googled this problem and found a couple of people having the same issues but no solution. Can anyone of you help?
Things I tried:
erase Data from Browser, Opera, youtube, facebook. --> no changes.
None of the apps is running as standard app.

Try to clear the data of youtube app or if that does not work try to uninstall and reinstall the app.

I had some problems with the Youtube app recently, it just said "an error occured" and in the logcat it mentioned something about not being able to authorize my account with google services. Turned out the latest version of the app is just crappy. Downgrading back to 4.1.47 fixed all issues for me.

On gingerbread I was able to click Youtube links from any application and launch them using the youtube app. I was prompted once to do so and every time thereafter the app would launch.
Now on ICS, i never once got the prompt to chose internet or youtube app, it just launched every youtube link using the browser which i detest.
Does anyone know what option/default i have to clear to get my app back as the default for links?
I tried clearing defaults for the browser and any apps that i usually click youtube links in to no avail.
Thanks for any info...
It has to do with crapple and its patent suit. The app associations is the work around that HTC has come up with. Presently there is no way around this. It sucks, we know. Blame crapple.
Oh wtf... Lame

I don't know if this is specific to this phone or not but every time I click a YouTube link I am directed to the the website instead of the app. I have cleared permissions and un installed updates to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Check app associations in your settings... It should ask you what to launch unless you have already set it to go directly to the browser

My YouTube asks everytime I hit a link if I want to open it in the browser or the YouTube app and won't let me set a default. My app associations menu doesn't list anything related to YouTube either.
So my question is this -- where are you launching the links? It's possible that it's a problem within your browser, so you might want to try a different one and see what it does. If it's not from the browser (Facebook, etc), it might be that app.

I have a guide that solves this exact problem, sadly, you need to be rooted. So as soon as you are rooted (or if you're one of the lucky ones who is rooted) check out this thread right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696536 it will work on your device and solve your issue :good:
great - thanks! now I just need root for the Inc 4g
Hey communitty,
So here's the thing I've flashed JB 4.1.1 and I've noticed something which I don't know if it's a ug or a feature on the update. When I try to open a youtube video on facebook unlike the previous firmware, I don't get the option of watching the video on the youtube app, instead I'm only given the options of browser or pop up browser...
Can anyone help...?
Cheers
Everything's ok here. I get as options the browsers and the youtube app. Try reinstall Facebook and youtube updates (remove the updates and update it again)
Also be sure you didn't selected youtube videos to open as default in browsers or something like that.

Hi,
I am using Galaxy s3 and upgraded it to Jelly Bean.
Till now whenever I used to click the link in S3's default internet browser, I used to get the app to open it. For e.g. if i clicked on Google play link, it used to open google play appl. Or if I click on youtube link it used to open youtube app on my android device.
But now, every time i click on any such link, it opens app in web browser. It is very much annoying.
I have cleared all the defaults of all the apps like Internet, Youtube, Google play etc but the issue still continues.
Seniors can you please help me in this issue. I really tried all the things but no success.
Awaiting for your help.
Kind Regards,
Anoop.
Possibly not much of a solution but try using a different web browser, there are far better than stock. Try using dolphin browser HD or Chrome. There are a few more but they are the ones I recommend.

Has anybody got a solution to this? I'm also facing the same issue.
go to settings - applications - your browser - clear defaults.
then click a play/YouTube link and just choose the corresponding app

Doesn't work...interesting thing is even after clear defaults from dolphin as well as stock browser, it only gives me these two options to choose from when I click on any youtube link,e.g. in FB. It never gives me an option to select youtube app.
I'm on Viking 5.1 | Android 4.1.2, although I'm sure the ROM should not matter. I remember it used to work on 4.0.4.
I've rooted my G3 and have had issues with pages not displaying in full site views @ all (e.g. Accuweather) or incorrectly (e.g. Google Play) for some time now. I get "Server Error...Connection refused...Error 500" when trying to display pages in full site views in Chrome and Dolphin browsers. Other sites, like Google Play display incorrectly/wonky in full site and mobile views, meaning almost in a pure text view, no page search bar, etc. Also, I've noticed when going to the Weather Channel site, the page language displays English and Chinese/Japanese = odd. I've done a factory reset and still have this issue. I know this wasn't a problem before but I don't know if the rooting or use of of post root apps have done the damage. Right now, all I have are some basic rooted apps - ES File Manager, Cerberus, AdBlock Plus, SuperSU Pro, Titanium Pro, Webkey, Widgetroid, and Tasker. I've searched for answers and even went to LG for help, but nothing is resolving this issue. I'm @ a loss of what to do...anyone help, please?
What browser? I've had weirdness with the AOSP browser(s), never used Dolphin, Firefox, etc.
Chrome, both stable release and beta, work fine, altho I generally do not prefer full site view. If Chrome, perhaps try deleting Data then completely uninstall via Root Explorer / ES File Mgr by deleting the .apk in System/Apps, reboot, and download Chrome from Play Store.
It's the default browser with the phone, which is Chrome. I've tried Dolphin to see if it was Chrome and the same issues show up. It's odd that these problems didn't pop up until recently. I first noticed it when I tried to go from the Accuweather app to a detailed forecast via the app and noticed the full version webpage would not show. The more I looked into the issue, the more sites I noticed similar problems along with the newer issues mentioned.
Will the uninstall/reinstall create any issues since it's the default browser of the phone? I don't know if other parts of the ROM will falter when I try that fix.

Have you tried disabling the ad blocking? I have had problems (on a previous device) like this with certain ad blockers in place.
