Youtube links dosn't work - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I try to open video from facebook it dosen't work.
I tried to reinstall youtube app.
What could be the problem?

Get rid of the Atrix and switch to a dummy phone.
Sorry, but that's what you get for asking for help but then failing to provide even the most basic device/system information.

what do u mean by basic info....Its astrix device, what do u need more?

In order to understand your problem and to help you, we need to know what Rom / Kernel you're running, which version of the Facebook and YouTube app you use, what happens when u click the URL etc.
Suggestion: try cleaning data of both apps. I suppose it is the facebook app, so maybe it is an older version and updating will do it.

I have the latest version of all the apps. I tried to clean the data it didn't help.
Kernel and rom are original. when I click the link it opens the browser and then youyube app and fail to lunch the video...

I suppose you checked that it isn't the video and that you can launch the video manually in YouTube, right?
Then I really don't know except if it isn't the YouTube app that's launching. It could also be the Flash player and you have to clear its data or update. Search in your app list for all apps that look like a video player, I can't remember how the blur Roms handled video playback...
Another idea, I don't know if cleaning data doesn't do this already, but clear the defaults of both apps and try again, it should ask which player you want to use (damn is it really so long ago that I used Gingerbread, I can't remember anything that isn't holo)

Any other ideas?

Factory Reset or root and another ROM will always do the job xD.
Other than that, maybe try another browser...
The question is if this is really worth it, you can still just copy the link

Mine wasn't working either... it was installed as soon as I logged into my google account and all my apps from my SGS2 were funneled onto the TPrime. It kept crashing out as soon as launched.
I ended up just searching the market for it and re-installing it seemed to do the trick. The menus are choppy as hell but it works.

In the tablet settings enable something like "force hardware acceleration." I think it is in the developer section. If you can't find it, I can look at it latter and give a better explanation. That should speed up the scrolling.
Enjoy!
Did you update your time and date?
Try deleting and installing again with a reboot?

i know its offtopic, but i want to ask if someone from outside US managed to create account on netflix? i was able to get on netflix.com using VPN, but problem is with creating account - they accept only us paypal accounts, and my credit card was rejected too (surprisingly by my own bank - they told me that netflix is a scam site {WTF}) is there any way to get it working?

Try a service like Entropay. Create a credit card with a US address and use it for Netflix.
they want scan of my ID, passport and driving licence got email immediately after registering there.
ive ran out of ideas, guess i will give up on it but thanks for help
----
edit: IT WORKS ) ive registered with my real slovakian address and credit card, they asked me to send them ids, so i did. After about an hour my virtual card was OK. And it was accepted by netflix without problem... what an awesome stuff youve got there in US im impressed. (btw hulu doesnt work)
thanks for highjacking my thread....guess i'll never get my netflix working...woe is me
If you are rooted and own titanium backup you could try freezing the app and installing the one from the market which should install as a data app instead of a system app.
Have you tried clearing the data/cache in the app setting by going settings>apps and scrolling to netfix? I can't recall the exact location since I am at work.
Does it give the same status even if you don't have any updates installed?
ive tried many netflix apps, but this one works for sure. try it, maybe it will work for you too. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20911810/Netflix_1.6.0.apk
When i try to install the above apk, i get an error message that says an existing app with a conflicting signature exists...which makes sense asi am unable to uninstall the original netflix. Seriously im having a hard time believing im the only one experiencing ts problem?
OP are you rooted? Uninstall the netflix update, then try deleting the Netflix.apk from /system/app with root explorer, reboot, reinstall netflix from the market.
have you done a factory data reset since you upgraded to ICS? I had a lot of quirky bugs right after I upgraded but thy all disappeared with a wipe. Asus really should have included that as part of the upgrade.
anyways, google can backup your apps if you let it, so all you have to do is re-define your settings. I was done and ready to go within an hour of my wipe.
hopefully you dont have to do that but that will probly fix it. good luck!
Agree, a factory reset can fix all kinds of software issues and with Google App Backup it is easier than ever to recover.

very big play-store problem

hello, guys as the title suggests i have a problem regarding the playstore actually a huge problem, whenever i open playstore.apk, it force closes, so i thought to use playstore from my browser, but in vain, whenever i type any apps name, it shows me this
"We couldn't find anything for your search - astro.
Suggestions:
Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
Try different keywords.
Try more general keywords." (in this case i tried to search for astro)
and when i directly go to the apps playstore link , it tells me that the app is incompatible with my phone, even though it is compatible (happens with almost every app, i.e almost every app is incompatible with my device)
also when i click on play on google.co.in, i get a grey screen, i've attached a screenshot
sorry for bad english, m not getting the correct words to express the problem, hope u all cooperate
do, you guys have any solution, i've formatted my whole phone with sd-card, tried flashing other rom, now m on JB moonbreaker but nothing works

[Q] Internet browser not prompting for video player - Kitkat 4.4.2

Hello everyone,
I'm coming from a Galaxy S2 running ICS. When I would click to play a video from the default internet browser, I would get prompted for the video player. I'm assuming that it has something to do with flash compatibility? In any case, I really liked this behavior since I could choose MX player (stream) or Internet (download). This was very handy and I would love to be able to have that functionality on my new device.
I'm now using a Galaxy S4 running KitKat 4.4.2 and it seems that all videos play inline and I can't choose any other apps. Is there a way to get that functionality back?
Thanks for any insight you may have!
Nope. Android killed all flash plug-ins and apps are now made to play videos inline. Not to mention the option to download was breaking alot of rules.

Say it aint so!! Should this have been working in ICS? I'm wondering because if it's been disabled since before ICS, maybe I can still find a way around this...?

You might be able to get around this by using outdated apks from before they started using the inbuilt browsers but be warned that if you download the videos google has the right to term you account. Other then that there is nothing you can do. Flash has been dead for a long time now.

Is there a way to lock my screen while listening to music on YT?

HI guys!
Is there any hacked YT version, which the screen locking don't stops the video? I usually listen to music on YT and i want to shut the screen off to save battery. I don't want to download all the music, and i can't download all of them i listen to.. I tried many other apps, none of them helped me. It would be the best, if i could use the YT, beacause i often listen to full playlists, and other apps can't handle my playlists or autoplay.
Thank you
Greetings,
that can be done only by installing XPOSED.
Kind regards

Uhh. Any other options? Maybe then a good app, that I can use with stock rom?

You can use this app to play media files while the screen is off, I don't think it works with YouTube though, you would have to pay for the music and then download it.
PVSTAR+ is a free app that can access YouTube content and use a "music mode" or whatever to let you turn off the screen and listen only. I used it when I went to the gym. Or just root, get xposed, and use YouTube Background Player or whatever it is called. Don't be afraid to root

I'm not afraid of rooting, but I don't want to flash a custom Rom. Xposed is a Rom, right? Or am I misunderstanding something?

Xposed is not a ROM, it is a hack that modifies the framework of your ROM, this can lead to bootloop's and overall instability. It is also possible that it won't cause any issues whatsoever, make sure that you know how to recover from a bootloop before you install Xposed. Also, even if the actual installation of Xposed works, the individual modules can easily cause a bootloop.
I did it. I rooted, and than flashed xposed, everything went ok, and then I wanted to take a photo. And the camera didn't want to work, just a black screen. So I flashed back the stock. It didn't worth it...

Well at least keep the root, you can do SO MUCH with root. And yes xposed can be tricky sometimes, but it can also be very beneficial. It just depends on if you want to deal with the troubleshooting if needed. And try the app I suggested, and the other one the dude before me suggested. Best of luck.

i swer this android sh"t os is infuriating !!!

So for no reason i cant play video files on my android note 8. All it says is "you may not have the proper app to view". In gallery and in every other app all the videos open up apart from the app i use the most, whatsapp. I disabled dual messenger, deleted whatsapp, reinstalled whatsapp, cleared cache, clear cache from recovery but whatever i do it says it cant play the video as i dont have the approriate app even tho i have most of the latest video players installed.
Dammit my iphone was expensive, not as nice looking, and not as much memory but that phone rarely gave me any probs and did everything out of the box with ease!! If it wasnt for the dual sim i probably wouldnt eva touch one again.
Iv tried assigning defualt player to videos but the problem is only in whatsapp and havnt found a way of assigining individual files from whatsapp to open up in a specific player. iv had too many problems with android, not the fone itself but these problems are all self arising out of the blue, anyone know how to sort this as i use the whatsapp for wrk. Thanks.

This a suspect post unless you tinkered with it... It shouldn't be doing that especially since you didn't even try rooting it and it's on stock untouched firmware have you tried a factory restore

Hi, i did root it with magisk but that was ages ago and everything was functional, it really did arise out of nowhere. Theres no tinkering involved aside from rooting and the root wasnt very helpful as nowadays alot of apps are rootless. I stll am trying to figure out what to do to get whatsapp to aknowlegddge the videos. yea its on stock no custom rom aside from root everything else is stock. All i need is somehow to edit a configuration file which i think tells whatsapp to direct it to one of the installed apps.

tried uninstalling and reinstalling, also if ur refering to media storage from recovery i have a huge amount of info on the fone.
Apparently switching the dual messenger feature on brings about this problem, the stock dual messenger app. Ive deleted it but prob remains.
