In my case it doesn't play in 3g whatsoever. It only plays videos on 4g not even wifi.

What does it say. Mine will say something like this video not formatted for mobile. But I will play it on another player

It doesn't say anything it just never loads. It will show. Loading..... And it will stay like that forever. The longest I waited was 15 mins & even after it wasn't fully loaded (same on wifi regardless of speed).

I'm having issues with it while on 3G. I keep getting,
"There was a problem while playing. Touch to Retry"
Ok. Now I know there's a problem. Thanks for the replies everyone. That's why I root my phone. That's why I put custom roms on my phone.

Last update to youtube fixed the issue. I then rooted and the problem is back. Doesn't matter which rom I use I can't get it to work, even after updating the app. Dammit!!
Ive been using this game for awhile now on my G Tab and my Samsung Infuse with no issues. But last couple days only on my tab when i go to play online matchup its really slow and sluggish. But only online play. Its fine on my phone on wifi too, so any ideas? I tried closing the app, rebooting, disc and rec my wifi, stopping running apps that use a bit of memory, but no luck. Anyone else ever have any issues like this? Any info would be great. Thanks

Is this just a problem with YouTube? I can hardly go through any videos without it having to buffer every 30 seconds( Atty which point i have to put the tablet down so i don't smash it)... Its very annoying.
Yes, same here. It takes forever to open a video

Works just fine here
I have the same problem
Mine loads up pretty quick, no problems here.
No problem here, try cleaning the cache and app data

Same issues here, I'm not surprised. It is basically the same on my desktop, constant buffering even with a 18Mbps connection.

I seem to have that problem with about the same speed connection, intrigued to know why
Sounds like a router problem for some people.

I do not think this is the case one bit, but I'd love to hear your explanation.

Maybe try clearing youtube app data.
See if that helps.
It works great for me. No problems at all even being a couple rooms away from router.

youtube has always performed poorly for me, in two different physical locations with various different hardware and two different ISPs. my guess is that it's my location and there's just not a good connection to youtube. i generally have to either download the clips or pause it and let it preload for a while.
May be a router issue? YouTube constantly buffers for me when on 2.4ghz. The only part of our house that has 5ghz is around my room area, and when I got there and connected to 5ghz, the YouTube app never buffered at all (except for the start of course) anymore.
Same here on my laptop as well as my tablet....
I have been using the rolle tube apk, which is the old YouTube and it works good for me on 3g speeds, tethering with my s3.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda premium
I have the same issue too. seems like the app refuses to stream faster than 2 to 3 mbps. I have a 150mbps down connection (get around 30 on wifi) and it always buffers when Im watching vids in HD.
Tablet app has no options for buffering or even the "pre-load watch later" option that my phone does...?
Have buffering problems, BUT also I get hangs when ever I change orientation and/or click on the sharing button.
As a big YouTube watcher I am so tired of this crap. I mean jeez I'm on pretty fast LTE and all I get is constant buffering. I can't watch an HD view for more then 30 seconds without it buffering for 5-10 seconds. And if I turn the HD off the picture looks so horrible I can barely make out what I'm watching. Anything that can be done to improve this?

I was beginning to thunk that it was my internet. Even when I use TubeMate to download the videos before I watch them (which I usually do), I've noticed that the downloads run a LOT slower. I'm talking from 5MBps to 200KBps.

Yea I think the YouTube app is having problems. Or YouTube itself is having issues.
I was on a fast wifi connection and could not even get normal non hd videos to play without ridiculous amounts of waiting and buffering. Forget hd, those just kept buffering and buffering on WiFi.
Probably youtubes servers

Has anyone tried using YouTube from a desktop computer to see exactly how prevalent these problems are?

Yeah the app is crap. I have the same issues on my nexus 7. What i do now is put the browser as default for playing videos. So now when i click on a link it opens up youtube from the browser and works flawless.

As of today Youtube isn't running so hott on my desktop either just keeps skipping using chrome. I don't know if it has to do with my uverse or youtube servers. The funny thing is I just used the app on my phone and it played fine finally lol.
I think youtube was having problems a few days ago, I know I read something about server issues around that time.

I didn't literally means a desktop computer. I only meant a PC. However, I tried for myself, and my laptop buffered during an 8 second clip. That's YouTube servers, not our devices or our Internet providers.

Youtube (Google) buffers the streaming a lot in the past few years and getting worse. They are known to be prioritizing traffic lately which will result in buffering on YouTube Android, Windows, Linux, Ipod, Ipad etc etc etc.. Nothing to do with your connection, at least what you are referring to and nothing Sprint can do to help unfortunately.
On the YouTube video u have 1 bar of wifi and on the speedtest ur on 4g (lucky btw). Armrest ur YouTube works mines been busted it just stops buffering completely at 50 secs but during those 50 sec it doesn't buffer.
Edit just tried YouTube and it seems like the problem fixed its self it doesn't stop at 50 and I don't get any buffering at all

Its a screenshot of a YouTube video playing, that's not my phone. I stopped using my house WiFi all together since my area obtained 4G as a matter of fact I don't have it even setup yet since my last flash.

Try the YouTube app from milestone 2 that's the only YouTube app that works right for me

So, for me, I can only play a partial song before it cuts out. Everything else seems to work fine.
I've called LG, and Verizon - they've never heard of the problem (big surprise ) . I'll get a hold of Google too but for now, let's try to figure this out.
My guess is a flaky Wifi connection. What is everyone else's opinion based on experience with the LG G2 and Chromecast, and what should we do?
Possible fix in post 23 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49363241
Edit-It didn't really work.

Both work great. As well as hulu.

Google's problem then. Netflix would use way more bandwidth streaming music. Chromecast in my opinion is still pretty beta, and new updates cone about once a month, so maybe they'll fix it.

I see your point, and you're not wrong but...
It works flawlessly on every other device I've used(sgs3, og incredible, iphone 4s, iphone 5,pc...etc.). This leads me to believe that something is screwy with the g2. Just looking for a meantime solution until this is worked out.
Edit-
Also, according to Verizon and LG this isn't a problem. So, maybe not even on their radar. Going to get to Google tonight but I'm guessing I'll get the same song and dance - "not our problem, call lg" or/ "not our problem, call Verizon".

Surround or HDMI? I don't have my G2 yet because my first one was a lemon, so I can't check for you...
Have you tried streaming from your PC? There is an extension for chrome that will cast a tab from your browser to chromecast, you could try that.

Of course I did. I didn't post a new thread without extensive googly searching for a solution.
I do however appreciate your input.
Now, g2 Chromecast users, what say you?

I also have this stupid issue. My nexus 4 and even my two galaxy nexuses don't have this problem. It will finish a song and then just not play anything. If u don't do anything.. Randomly it will just start another song

Have you tried Pandora. It plays a song then loses connection after and won't control it anymore. Didn't do this with my gnex either. HBO go seems to work fine tho

I tried this this morning, said it fixed my Wifi. I was unable to test due to network problems at my house.

I have been streaming without any issues on cm11.

HBO Go, Netflix and others work fine. The only thing that doesn't work right it Google Music which sucks because I am trialing the pay GM with Spotify to see which I want. May have to just keep Spotify on ipad and stream thru Apple TV instead.
I have two G2s in the house. I hardly have songs or videos drop out mid track, but I do have a continuity issues. Sometimes it will play the next track, other times I have to manually forward to the next track. Not sure if G2 issue or CC issue.

I have had that issue with any music app. Pandora slacker spotify and play music. I think it's a g2 issue. Ironically I haven't had any issues when playing on the chromecast.
Maybe the g2 cuts playback thinking your no longer using the app and it needs to conserve battery?

I tried another app from the play store that keeps Wifi awake while the screen is off and I got 4 songs to play in a row before it disconnected. This is a record for me, but not a fix. My Galaxy s3 will play for hours on end with no interruption.

G2 issue. LG customer service blames it on Google. Verizon blames it on LG. Google doesn't say ****.

Maybe if we can get a logcat or two together of the Chromecast disconnect issue, it could help zero in on the cause. I don't think I'll have time until probably Sunday...
The next step would be to find someone to interpret said logcat.

I use google music and songza with my g2 and chromecast with no problems.
What is your wifi (g, n, ac) and 2.4 or 5 ghz?
2.4 ghz wireless N. You know, I have a ton of networks in range of my home network. Maybe the router is nuking the connection looking for an open channel.

no problems streaming with chromecast (or bluetooth) here either.
