YouTube and Facebook not playing nice - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ever since the most recent YouTube update (5.0.21), any time I try to open a link to a video (might be all FLV videos) in Facebook Chat, whether it's the actual Facebook app or Messenger, it doesn't work.
It tries to open in Gallery, and gives me a "Can't play this video" error.
I've tried different ROMs, different kernels, etc... with the same results.
Anyone know why or how to fix this?

So upon installing Showtime, I have decided that it may be my least favorite app ever
On the other hand, I've found that my phone is evidently not even finding YouTube to be an option. I tried clearing defaults, but there were none, and changing it from a system app to a user app didn't help either.

Got exactly the same issue and it's driving me insane. :silly:
Tried everything possible and downgraded to Youtube 4 but nothing is working.

I'm guessing that by this you mean use Wi-Fi Tethering. That not only doesn't make sense, since all that does is allow other devices to use your internet connection, but this problem has nothing to do with connection speed.
When I try to open the link, my phone doesn't recognize YouTube as a compatible app to open it.

Try an older version of the Adobe Flash Player (e.g. 10.1).

In the future, please search first (this is discussed at length all over these forums) and only post once (there are at least two threads started by you on the same day about this issue).

XDA App

I've got the XDA App on my ICS'd Prime. I can look at threads fine when not signed in but once I sign in and try to look at a thread it crashes. Or try to add threads to favorites it crashes too. Not too big of a deal since I can just pop up the site on browser but I like to use the app. Anyone else experience this?

Are you running the Free or Premium app? I haven't noticed any crash using the Premium one.
Only the premium app works
No problem when using the premium app.The free app has always been flaky over a wide range of devices.
I had no issues with either the free or paid version of the app. Though I only lurked with the free app while signed in. Stock ICS and no root on mine if ya think it matters

Then why even offer the free app?

Because it works for most other phones and tablets. It's just not completely compatible with the Prime yet apparently.
The free app worked for me while I was on HC but does not work under ICS.

YouTube app

So this seems to occur across all the roms I run including cm and all sense roms. While watching a video it seems to freeze and won't let me pause the video or change the video. I can still move around on the YouTube app but asoon as I click on another video it just freezes and I have to exit. Right now I'm running the new viper Rom and it still comes out. Is anyone else getting this?

Try deleting cashe or clearing for both YouTube app and stock browser then try again. Worked on my new iPad then tried with CM10.1 and fixed buffering for me.

youtube is working fine for me on deck's cm10.1
I am currently on cm 10.1 but what happens is that when viewing a video it seems to just stop at 52-53 seconds into the video and won't continue. I'm using WiFi and i know its not the WiFi since my roommates can use the YouTube app perfectly on the one x+ and the nexus 7. I have not cleared the caches and I always flash between cm and sense and I wipe everything and on cm you have to manually install YouTube.

It is a problem with that ROM. I'm on the 04/08/2013 version and am having the same issue. I also have the issue playing videos from the gallery.
Thanks. I thought it was the problem of my phone or youtube app.

Htc Power To Give.

So I was browsing on Facebook and I like the htc fan pages I see this app htc makes called htc power to give and decided to check it out.
Basically the app takes your phone and uses it to download bits of information compute it and the sends it back. It acts like a super computer and I thought it was a great way for us htc owners to give back and make a change in the world or contribute to it while we charge our phones and don't use then when we sleep.
Here is the short YouTube video that explains the concept behind the app. It's about a minute and a half long.
http://youtu.be/_0oJ39vs_Kk
And here is the app on Google play if you feel like joining the cause.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htc.ptg
Just thought I would bring this to attention to those who want to help and make a difference with their htc device.
For those who can't download it on their device I have gone ahead and uploaded it to Dropbox.

I don't think so unless you modify it, but that is way above me. Maybe ask one of the devs around here.

Check all the reviews. Tons of complaints about not being able to use mobile data. I tried to change the WiFi setting. No go.
