Any help with this?

There's been issues with this on many different phones..... look for a safe apk to install an older version. Or wait for update my friend. I'll check for an older version. Make sure play doesn't auto update though, k?

Well its difficult to find a trustworthy apk. But go to apps and uninstall updates. Make sure you have auto update in play off. If your phone came with YouTube it will go back to original version that worked and wait a few days or a weeks and install YouTube again. I'm sure by then they will have fixed this issue.

I've also noticed this same issue. The work around I've discovered is to put the phone back into portrait mode, advance the time, and then place it back into landscape.

i think it might be something on their end, and not ours... it makes no sense. I didn't go any upgrades of anything, it just broke.
This is when I get really tired of Google.
This just happened to me. Im stock and have never been rooted. I dont think its our tablets, i think its google.

Same problem for me too, we will probably have to wait until there is a update for the YouTube app to fix the issue....arg.

same here ... I think it's a flash problem ... Youtube 2.3.4 apk is a temporary solution ...
the problem is not with our device,it is a known issue to everyone having Youtube app force close just send report to the developer and let him know about this issue

Just been having the same problem, flushed the app cache and davlik etc... And thought i was gonna have to reflash, glad i looked here first.
You tube works again.
Oh thank god its back, I just read the whole flash is dead by Adobe and I figured this maybe part of their ics update to see if YouTube works without flash

Google Play Store: Build 3.5.15 (3-17-2012)

The market has been updated and brings a few useful changes. "My Apps" has a tabbed interface and reviews are more informative (see screenshots). The "all" apps tab brings back date sorting (by last installed/updated). There are some other nice UI changes as well. You can simply install the apk like any other standard application. For those who wait, your current builds will eventually auto update.
UPDATE: As of 4/4/2012, the latest version is 3.5.16. Yoderk's post has a link.
whoa its about damn time. I can see every app I ever downloaded! wow now I don't need tibu!
I updated to that build, but I get an FC when I try to "update all".

[Q] Polaroid Tablet Help

I recently picked up one of those Polaroid 7 inch tablets at Kohls. (Polaroid ptab7xc)
All the reviews of this thing are great, but I can't do anything with it! I install the Amazon app store, and it works fine for a bit, but the next time I launch it, I get a black screen with "search" at the top, but the store itself never launches, and the search never responds. It only works once I uninstall then reinstall the app, and again, only for a bit.
I've also tried to install the Android/google store, I follow all the instructions on the page, and everything works fine, but before I get finished, the market stops working. Every time I try to launch the app, I get the same message, the Market has stopped working.
I copy the folder to the device and not an SD card, is that my problem?
No, i don't think that's your problem.
Did you tried to do a factory reset ?

I took it back and got a new tablet, and it did the same darn thing. I install the files in the order it says to install them, I get to the sign in point, enter my info and password, and it stops.
Before using custom roms and rooting things, i recomMend you to reinstall the original firmware : http://southerntelecom.com/polaroidsupport/firmware_guide_ptab7XC.html

The firmware quoted won't work-it's made for a different model.
If you have already successfully flashed the tablet to the stock firmware, you can head over here where elektrik () has created a modified stock which has store, root &debloat.

If by 'hard reset' you mean back to factory default, you select that in the Personal section of the ICS system settings (called 'Backup & Reset')

You're also running an apk not made for your device. It may depend on other apps/resources that you don't have installed.
I'm a big s-voice hater, but I don't think you can judge the new version based on what you have.

[APP REQUEST]TWN 2.0.1.12 - Weather Network tablet version

I'm looking for the tablet version of The Weather Network (TWN) - specifically, version 2.0.1.12. Can someone with an N10 download it and provide the APK file? I want to use the Tablet version on my N7 gen 2 but Play store always downloads the phone version even though I am running Tablet UI.

Hi, I'm not the OP but thanks for trying to help. Unfortunately it's not The Weather Channel he/she was asking for but The Weather Network which is based in Canada. Unfortunately they've opted to restrict the tablet version to 8'' and up devices excluding the N7 (despite more than a few complaints on the Play Store).
If by chance you'd be willing to upload TWN, I'd definitely appreciate it. I know the iOS version is available in the US iTunes store so I'm guessing you'd have access?

I am sad to say that the app force closes on Nexus 7. I don't understand why they can't make this compateable on a 7 inch screen. The Weather Network treats the N7 like a phone.... I think I would look pretty stupid holding that thing to my ear.
I went back to an iPad Mini (Retina). As much as I love Android on phones, it's still not the same/better experience on tablets.

To make you feel better im letting you know that i also cannot install the tablet app from playstore but i have a GALAXY NOTE 8 (8 inch tablet) it keeps installing the phone version.

After finding this thread i was super happy but quickly became mad again because the 2.1 .0.12 apk force closes on launch even on my 8 inch tablet. VERY VERY LAME!

I was able to get it to work using "exposed framework" and "app setting" to set the display as higher resolution. It tricks the tablet version into thinking your tablet is a tablet (lol) but the problem is it still didn't look right. There was many glitches. I think the weather network was designed for 10 tablets :'(
I gave up. Pitty. 1weather is a good app to try.

wow thanks for the tip, i will try "xposed app setting" as i already have this installed but never thought of using it for TWN. My guess is that i will encounter the same problems as you did so ill probably end up giving up on TWN as well. I installed the new app of Weather Channel and Accuweather this morning. I am still testing both, they both look like very good weather apps. I have used 1weather before but uninstalled it cant remember why. Its a shame that TWN doesnt support all tablets.... i hope android become more strict with uploaded apps to the playstore, seems like the tablet world isnt supported by android devs all that much, at least not like apple, its so hard to find good tablet apps on playstore =(

Sorry for quoting you again but I wanted to thank you. The xposed module did the trick it worked perfectly no bugs or glitches. On my Note 8 I put 162 dpi and checked xlarge res everything else is untouched.

Could you give me some help? I have a Galaxy Tab3 8.0, which is very similar to the note 8. But I could not get the TWN to launch in tablet mode, using xposed app setting. I followed your instructions - put 162 dpi and checked xlarge res everything else is untouched. It just made everything smaller but still in phone mode.
Perhaps TWN updated their app so the hack doesn't work anymore.
Did you modify anything else, like the tablet's overall DPI setting in build.prop?
Did you download the app from Play store, or side loaded it from another source?

Pity that the newer TWN versions break the hack. Things just never seemed to work out of the box like my iPad mini. Another example of Android users being treated as 2nd class compared to the iOS camp.

Yep I feel you. My review on play store says the same but it isn't the only app acting like this on my 8 inch tablet. On the other hand those same apps are fine on 10 inch tablet so go figure
