Hello,
I have had a problem with Youtube saying "Connection to server lost." I have found other sites (including this one) explaining a lot of fixes and workarounds, but nothing is working. It's not just over WiFi that the problem exists as I can be on the mobile network and it will still give the error. I have gone so far as uninstalling the updates, and it will work with what came with the phone, but once it updates it no longer works. I don't have any apps that would create a proxy such as Adblock, so I know it's not a redirect problem either. Anyone having similar issues with their Padfone X, or even know of some sort of weird trick that maybe I am missing?

I am also having the same problem
After uninstalling the updates, have you tried disabling Youtube's auto-update option in Playstore?

I guess I could do that, but it is just a bandaid to a problem. I am sure there is a reason the updates don't work, or a solution could be found. If anyone was to know, I was hoping it could be shared so everyone can know what's going on.
Common problem. The only solution, despite many threads about changing your DNS server and other solutions, is to uninstall all the updates and turn off auto-update.
If you're like me and hit Update All for the 384,763 apps that need updates every so often, use the Detach from Market option in Titanium Backup to take it off the list temporarily. Note that it doesn't stay detached from the Market for more than a brief while.
I'm having the same issue with my padfone x.
So like same prob here but it wont even work with old youtube.

I rooted my Asus Padfone X and uninstalled youtube to download a cracked version so I could download vids the crack didnt work so I found one online that worked. After a while it auto updated so i tried the update wouldnt work. Then uninstalled and installed old again. Two months later it auto update new update worked for 4 hours now nothing will work not even 2.5.1
Uninstall all updates to the app. The stock app should work fine. I had to take it back to the base with no update and leave it there for months, then a recent update made it work again for me.

none of that fixed mine. Even the stock app. mine is running kitkat 4.4.2. I ended up downloading a youtube player from the amazon app store. The only functionality i lost is chromecast support and remote player control. I can live with that. Note that i tried vtube and that one had the same connection problem.
Same here. Nothing worked for me so I deleted the app. YouTube via the browser works as it should.

Market web installs from "market android com" never start. ('m not allowed to post links)
Under "My Devices" in the settings page it shows my Atrix, It has a "Registered on" date (today) but it doesn't have a "Last Used" date (it shows a dash).
I have followed all the suggestions on the help page. (log in, log out)
My Market App version is 2.3.2.
Google Talk works. The Market App works. Clearing Data and Cache for the Market doesn't help any.
I'm signed in with a regular Google account. (not an apps account)
Any suggestions?
This might sound obvious, but have you tried restarting it or resetting it?
Yep. Lots of restarts.
Does the market work on anyone else's Atrix or is it just me?
I read somewhere that if you open Google Talk and sign out then sign back in, it should get the market web installs working because of a communication problem.

Yeah, that's on the help page. Didn't work.
Empty market cache, and uninstall market upgrades (if any). Had the same problem before with other phones, I do not think this is atrix specific.
Getting the market to upgrade afterwards required some manual steps as well. Too lazy to look that up now though, just google it.

I emptied the cache and uninstalled updates. On the first launch I got the old market, on the second launch it had upgraded back to the new one. I also tried a reboot. Still doesn't work. Good idea though, thanks.
Bump! Any fixes for this? I'm having the same issues. The Market web store even lists my phone being last used on Feb 25 (the last day it was pushing app downloads from my computer). However, when I download apps from my phone, it shows up on my account online.

I thought I was having this same problem, but I was in battery saver mode and had auto-sync disabled. After re-enabling it, the downloads just began automatically.
I had the same issues at first and tried all th above fixes and the ones on the google help page. nothing worked at first. i waited a few hours and tried downloading again and everything worked fine. i can't really explain how but it just started working.
I have had this problem for 5 days =/ Now I just chrome to phone the link and open it with market =/ I have done all the above, contacted Google and posted at Motorola Site. Nothing works.
Darn I am having the same issue. Just got my Atrix an hour or two ago...so we will see what happens. I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: Mine just started working, so I don't know what the problem with yours is. Hope you get it worked out.
I have same problem here with my Hd2 DFT android Rom maket works fine but it never start downloading any apps :/ please some help ??!!
Do you have apps/the market to update only on wifi? And you haven't opened the apps to have them generate an, "I'm here", marker for the market to send you stuff, when you were hooked up to wifi?
I wondered the same thing...
Good news guys Google talk was not working for me so I re flashed my phone and reconfigure it now Google talk work and market too I don't know if it will works for you but for me it working great now hope it help a bit

Port 5228
This may not help everyone, but I ran into this same problem.
Each day, my downloads weren't sent to my phone and my gmail wasn't pushing consistently, but by the time I got home, everything seemed to be working again. I noticed that I was also unable to log into google talk on my office's wifi (which seems to be the key to getting everything else to work). A coworker with a samsung android phone was having the same problem.
We worked with our network administrator to unblock certain ports on the wifi firewall. We finally resolved this issue by opening port 5228. Now everything is pushing correctly. See if this port is blocked on your wifi.
The weird thing that kept throwing me off is that even if I switched off wifi and used ATT, it was still having problems for a period of time.
I just noticed a very weird issue on my sgs2: YouTube app does not work.. I can't view any video. Search don't work. Can't even load up my favorite... it always shows "there was a problem connecting to the network" . Also, when using the browser, trying to connect to connect to www.youtube.com also yield "data connectivity problem. The server failed to communicate. Try again later." I know that the YouTube server is fine... YouTube site and app works perfectly on my galaxy tab 10.1. I'm not sure what could be wrong on my phone... please help!!!!!
I'm not sure if this is related but.... last week my phone had an issue all of a sudden... the Google account stopped working, I couldn't connect to gtalk, gmail don't work, internet browser works but just none of the Google services work. I researched online and found that using an app to fix this issue: htchost. I ran it and it fixed all my Google account issues. I haven't used YouTube at all these days so I'm not sure if this is at all related.
I just tried to run htchost on YouTube but doesn't fix this issue... anyone know what may be causing this??
I'm using xxkg5 ROM with ninphetamine 2.1.3 kernel. Thanks!
have you tried just uninstalling it and reinstalling from market?
YouTube came pre-installed... I can't uninstall it
Check the date and time on your phone. If it doesn't work I guess you'll have to titanium backup your phone and wipe data and cache. Maybe just update the ROM as well.

I'm not too sure what you mean by check the date and time. It's set automatically by the carrier network and it is correct. BTW I updated YouTube from the market, still makes. No difference.
ok I figured out why... it's my hosts file being screwed up by the app... manually editing the hosts file and removed the entries for YouTube fixed the problem
wrong thread
Having this issue for more than a month, nothing helps to fix it(
Does anybody can help?
Here is a theme of this bug, seems that there is no solution : droidforums.net/forum/tech-issues-bug-reports-suggestions/180412-android-market-my-apps-blank-16.html
Neither this fix doesnt work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1019613
Tried several times, but market changes the file to initial version.
Any clue for fixing it?
If you haven't already, clear the Market app cache and updates, under settings/applications/manage apps. Do the same with Download Manager, Downloads, and Market Updater. Also try cycling the Notify for Updates option in Market settings. This happens on occasion to me as well, sometimes if fixes itself, somtimes not.
You can also try Titanium Backup's Fix Market feature, can't say if this works or not. Otherwise, you can track your app updates via AppBrain, or aTrackDog

I have done all of it. And about Titanium's Market Doctor.. it seems that it doesnt work properly, many people replied that they had this issue after using it, and so do I. Just dont remember when it had appeared.
No chance than an hard reset.

People from the thread in the first post have flashed stock and nothing happened. I've been using CM7 when got this issue, now I run MIUI, and only few apps appeared in My apps after first rom boot, but after reboot or even earlier the list become empty again..
Seems that it is Google fault, obviously. People got this on different devices and firmwares, under different circumstances. Though they report that same account works on other devices, but nothing helps to get it work on initail device. May be google stores imei or other info about phone, but I think this is unlikely
Excuse me, I dont understand - Are You lost your market data on one device or on any device?
Are you try see it on other device with same google account? And what are the results?

On another device I can see only paid apps. If going to the Market web site, all apps are showing.
Seems that google doesnt hurry about solving this annoying mess. Really tired of using appbrain to update my apps. on droidfourms there are people who have "lost" their second accounts already... really a fu**ing disaster
Same here!!!! Market my apps list blank
hey ppl even i m facing the same issue...bt when i return back on ma stock rom it shows me da list....as soon as i restore ma apps wid titanium on a new rom da market list is again empty...oderwse da issue is not solved yet...i think itzz google'z fault!!!! anybody facing this type of prob??? or any suggestions???
same issue
I'm having the same issue, but I also can't download any apparently from the market. Market errors on download without even trying to download. Market was working fine until i switched ROM. I've switched to 4 different ROMs on my LG G2X and had same issue on all. I can't download free or paid apps.
I might have stumbled upon a fix tonight I used rom tool box to attach my apps to market then I used the fix permissions tab and bam I had apps under "my apps" which I haven't had in well over a month

I have got my apps to show up after changing rom, but only for a short time. I installed some of my apps and they showed up, but after reinstalling all app they were gone again. I have a feeling that either google doesn't like to show largevnumber of apps(300+ at one time) or it doesn't like a specific app. Oh well, I can still update through appbrain app market.

I have the same problem. I thought it's only me and my device. I didn't find solution even that I tried everything you wrote. So, I am also asking if somebody know any solution for this.
Thanks...
same problem here
Same here ..
Same issue happened with me, when I saw my region I was surprised as to what happened and checked again, when going to final transaction it shows US. but still, it's driving me nuts. Google Play Services might be responsible for this, it tends to update itself
Same problem... I thought it was only my phone.
I used it to fake to Japanese market, so it is not a region problem. Market must have updated something :crying:
I just found out a few hours ago hence, i found this post.
Anyone knows how to fake market again? :crying: IT IS A PAIN WITHOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happening to me too. Started two days back. Tried all methods. different versions of market enabler, market access and market unlocker. Tried downgrading play store to 3.7.XXXX. Doesn't work. Automatically upgrades itself to 3.10.XXXX, a few minutes later. Tried different ROMS, not working. Tried ViperX, CM10, icecoldjelly on my HOX. Restored to a previous time when market access was working, doesn't work no more. The only possible explanation for me is that google has blacklisted me, or blocked me, or whatever. Maybe using a different google account might work.
3 different apps (MarketEnabler, MarketAccess, Market Unlocker) not working for me anymore either. The weird thing is that Google Play Store from the browser still sees my phone as T-Mobile US i9100, but I don't see the buy button anymore.
I guess google changed the way it's fetching relevant data from the phone... any fixes yet?
Don't work anymore for me ! I use Market Access since my Galaxy S1 (i have S3 now)
Same here. It just stopped to work half a day ago. Clearing market data, rebooting and reverting to 2.6 market doesn't seem to help. It's really annoying since I live in China...
I heard that VPN/proxy may solve this problem but I don't have an VPN or proxy to try it out.
Besides, since many people are having this problem in these few days but not all at once, maybe this has something to do with our account/credit card/purchase history or something. Anyone tried to use another account, or maybe use the same account on another device?
OK I tried it myself, flashed a new rom, got a new Gmail account (without CC), reinstalled market unlocker and it didn't work. Removing SIM card didn't help either. Guess we have to use VPN/Proxy.
PS: It seems that market unlocker works with PC play store though.
Guess we are stuck like this. People who live in us or gb, or someplace where the play store doesn't suck, are really very lucky. This is driving me crazy. Not being able to download top free apps and games........ not even temple run 2.....root explorer......nothing... why cant google let us select a region, then at least the cool free ones will be available to everyone. yeah...ill keep dreaming
any solutions ????
Same problem, but VPN solution does not appear to help unfortunately

So,
Pandora is not working, once it starts it gives an error that they are having technical difficulties. After clicking ok, it tries to connect (presumably to their servers) and then fails. It asks if I want to reconnect but that also fails.
I upgraded from a galaxy tab s(running a version of linageos). Google picked up a recent backup, and restored all my apps.
I launched pandora, and immediately had the error. It did not ask me to log in. I cleared cache, cleared data, and reinstalled several time. Still have errors. I expected that clearing the data or reinstalling would require me to provide login information; but it does not.
Anyone have similar issues, or have gotten Pandora to work?
I am having the same issue. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, changing battery optimazation, allow backrground usage, etc. Still getting the same error
I had several emails with the first level support techs at pandora. They don't know what is happening, and have sent it to the developers.
Note I get an error code of 9 when I try to connect,to the servers or if I try to register a new account.
At this point it looks as if it's a bug, hoping they will get back with a solution.
Will report back on what they find
Just for my clearance: What is pandora? Is it the rom or do you mean any app?
I mean the music streaming APP Pandora.
I got an email from the tech support confirming that there a problem.
Been a week now with no update or fix.

Please let us know if you here anything.
Emailed tech support this morning, asking for a update to my issue.
Got a response about an hour later that the developers were working on the issue.
Will check in next weekend, unless the respond or fix the issue
Cleared my tablet and app cashe and it installed and I get the usual opening screen then 2 seconds later I get an error that says my Pandora Session has timed out. Click ok and it closes.
Does this App come with the Tab s6 or did you manually install it?
Installed from the play store. It has always worked on all my devices. I use it daily on alexa.
Installed today's update, I can now connect.
Looks like they fixed the issue
Downloaded and installed lastest version and it works now. Thanks for keeping us up to date !!
