The Youtube Apps stopped working on my Nexus One. I have the stock rom. I ask my friend to test his and his does not work either. He is using Cyanogen mod 5.0.5. Is anyone else having a problem using the Youtube App? Is there a fix for this? Thanks.
Works fine here.
Think you could be a little more specific about the issue? Saying it doesn't work doesn't tell us anything at all.

Sorry about that. When I try to view a video with the youtube app it opens, but nothings plays in the beginning. Sometimes the audio plays, but you see no video. If you skip forward, you will see the video stopped and the audio continues to play. I sometimes receive the error message: "Sorry, this video is not available". I have tried this using wifi and 3G with the same result. This also happens to videos I used to be able to play using the browser. Everything worked fine about a week ago. It seemed to just stop working all of a sudden.
Fine here (UK) on Wifi and as a bonus I just watched the chatroulette piano guy that was featured and it is brilliant so thanks for getting me to test so I could see that

in my experience, that happens when the video isn't formated (or format isn't available) for mobile screen/in mobile format/whatever.
nothing is wrong with the youtube app itself.
My problem with the YouTube app is that it often takes 'forever' to start playing the video! In fact, sometimes it will never start.
Somewhat embarassing when my wife's iPhone 3G can get to the same video and play it immediatly....
Have you tried watching in High Quality instead?
I have the same problem but in a different app, Tubedroid where downloaded videos can't be seen even though I can hear it. Turns out I can't download videos in HD, only high quality.

I hate this also. I pretty much gave up on YouTube which is crazy because you would think Google would support their own software the best.
Yeah, on stock youtube takes foorrrrrever to load up a video, even on a wifi connection. Oddly enough, the version that comes with Modaco's Desire ROM loads 'em up right fast. Weird.
Has anyone been able to get skype video going on the tab plus?
I had it running once after the initial installation. Now it fails every time i try. What's interesting that the other person cannot initiate video on their side as well, as the video button is greyed out.
Working fine here.
hmmmm
maybe something is wrong with my device then.
I thought it could have something to do with me rooting it, so i flashed it back to the stock rom and that did not help.
basically skype can see the camera, but if i try to initiate it during the call it fails. the camera works otherwise.
I just checked the logs and it states that it cannot find the matching codec for local video stream and that the video controller does not support large surfaces???
Did you try switching to the rear camera ?
P_
The problem could be on their end...
Set up a second skype account and log in from a computer that you know video works... then call your tab from there.
Tried switching the camera and using a different account, but nothing works.
Also tried getting the modified version of skype and forcing the video, still nothing.
Changing the resolution does nothing as well.
If I try to do video call, the video show up initially and when the person picks up, it goes to black screen. I cannot view other person's video as well.
Problem solved, I went and had the Tab replaced ...
Hi guys,
I am not certainly an expert in this field but it seems like because we don't have the driver for the graphical card, the phone does not have video camera function when ICS is installed.
My question is I've realized that from watching YouTube and other streaming videos, the quality of video is really bad. Is that have anything with video support?
I'm pretty sure with the stock the quality of the video was just fine.
Thanks in advance for your comments!

The biggest issue currently is the lack of hardware video acceleration which can easily be solved my using MXplayer and having the video decoded through the software instead.
Camcorder
Camcorder force closes. Driver issues.

I'm not sure if it really matters, but what ROM are you using? I've used several ICS ROMs and never really noticed any issues with video quality on Youtube or other sites. It does seem to be slow to load at times, which may be because of the video driver issue. But quality-wise, it looks fine to me.

I must say the picture looks saturated I mean dither gradation of the colors seems not be read correctly? It definitely has nothing to do with how much time it'd take to load.the bids its the picture.that degrades its quality..
BTW I was using eagleblood latest
These are what I notice to be funky and a bother, the reasons for why they don't work might not be correct but here is what I notice...
No proper video drivers = camera is funky sometimes NO VIDEO unless you use video cam illusion only mediocre quality, some video playback to alot are not proper or functioning fully at the least. Takes longer to load things (I think, ill be surfing xda or Facebook and it loads like DSL used to load in sections, half the screen and other times by quarters, really weird.)
No REAL Hardware Acceleration, it is just a hack with missing libs or Hals or binaries a bunch of little things, this causes a mess of issues if I'm not mistaken which is a possibility (a likely one)
Other things I've noticed are that battery is usually terrible if you use the phone, not super fast at all again proper drivers are the cause of that one. Incoming calls are a pain on most roms. Wifi calling is a no go for a whole lot of people, including me. More things that are just annoyances but also make it not a daily driver for some including me, I've tested them all and always revert... just mainly the annoyances and the lack of wifi calling.

I agree with all that is said above. I had all of these problems and I always had this funky problem in which when ever I was browsing the web it would randomly decide to start flickering the screen black on the page and then not letting me see anything until I started to actively scroll and then the problem would come back. This happened to me over and over until I reverted back to GB. That and the new baseband that is a much needed improvement and is only compatible with GB right now.
I don't know how unique my problem is, but I can't use my phone for development anymore for some reason or some of the advanced Bluetooth features. Pre-ICS, all the G2x drivers installed normally from Windows Update and I could do all the various Bluetooth things, such as Bluetooth file browsing. Post-ICS, my G2x shows up as an unknown device in Bluetooth, so no more Bluetooth file browsing. Also, when I connected my phone for the first time and turned on debugging, Windows couldn't install the drivers to make it work, adb doesn't recognize it, and eclipse won't push to it. Keep in mind, this was on a computer I connected to just fine a few hours ago.
Now, at this point I was a little pissed because I can't use my phone for development, so I try another laptop that my G2x had never connected to. Plug it in, nothing. Install LG drivers, nothing. So I think that ICS somehow messed up my ability to use debugging mode, because when I disable debugging mode I don't have any "Other Devices" in Device Manager.
I've been running arcee's CM9-SK3 since he released it, the hardware acceleration is a nuisance, but my biggest complaint is the maps problem. When I'm using maps or navigating, the map will randomly blank out and maps will require a complete restart. It's quite annoying while navigating, and absolutely infuriating while searching the map for something. I can live with the battery (I have two), I can get over the lack of video (youtube HD works fine), but the maps thing is what drives me the most crazy, especially since I just moved across the country right after installing SK3.
Hello,
Like 3 months ago I have bought myself an HTC One S. It always worked well in the beginning, but recently I started having some problems with it.
It's about the sound. Very often I suddenly have no sound anymore. (This is a problem that is not similar to other posts about problems with sound)
If the problem encounters:
- I don't hear ringtones.
- If I call someone, I don't hear beeps but the phones does make contact with the other. The one I call does hear his phone ringing.
- I can't hear my own music. Also can't even play.
- No sound with the radio.
- I can't play videos/movies. Video/movie doesn't start. I get an "not supported" error.
- I get an error if I play Youtube video's.
- If I play games there is no sound. If I turn the volume louder in game, it's turning the Ringtone Volume louder, not the Media Volume.
- If the phone is starting up I first get the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and directly after that the animation screen (Also without sound).
Normally the screen is black for 3/4 sec before the animation screen.
Better said: all the media is not working. (Camera/mic, I don't know yet. I will find out today.)
I think it has also something to do with my Wifi. If I turn my Wifi on, the media stops working after an hour. But also without Wifi turned on the Media stops working but less earlier.
I can fix this problem by turn Wifi off and restarting the phone without the SIM. It's not always working but very often it does. If I restart my phone with SIM, the problem continues.
I already tried a factory reset, but the problem came back again.
Earlier I had rooted my phone and flashed some ROMs on it, but with not much succes. So I rerooted my phone and deleted recovery and used an RUU to make my phone as how it was in the beginning. I have the latest update now.
I have this problem like everyday and it kinda starts to irritate...
Can someone please help me with this?

I was was wondering if you have found a solution to this already? My HTC one S shows the same problems since yesterday.
Which One S do you have? S3 or S4?
Still got warranty?
Verstuurd van mijn One S met Tapatalk
What do you mean with S3 or S4. I'm a noob!
This is what I found in the map software information:
Software number: 3.16.401.8
HTC: sense version: 4+
Android: 4.1.1
edit: Did a little search on Wikipedia
Processor and memory
One version of the One S uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8260A SoC (system on chip),[3] which includes a 1.5 GHz dual-core Krait CPU and an Adreno 225 GPU, as well as an integrated HSPA+ modem, GPS/GLONASS module, Wi-Fi b/g/n radio, Bluetooth, and FM radio.[9] The One S also features a standard array of sensors, including an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor. The phone provides 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of built-in storage; however, the phone lacks a microSD slot for additional storage.
In certain markets, such as Taiwan,[10] India,[11] and some European (usually Eastern European) markets, the One S uses the older Snapdragon S3 MSM8260 SoC, with a 1.7 GHz dual-core Scorpion CPU and Adreno 220 GPU.[12] In some markets, both devices are available, notably the UK. The change is speculated to be caused by a shortage of Snapdragon S4 chips.[13] The two versions have slightly different packaging, the S4 is model Z520e/Z520m and states "Processor: Dual Core, 1.5GHz"/"CPu Speed 1.5 GHZ, dual core, whereas the S3 is model Z560e and states "Processor: Dual Core".
It says: 'Dual core'. So I guess it's the S3 then?
having the same sound problems
I'm having the same problems with HTC One. I can't hear the ringing when I'm calling someone, it just shows "dialing".
I can play music/video.

hey,
to keep this thread going:
i have / had the same problem. it started a few months ago and happened only occasionaly, recently it was basically all the time
there was no sound in- or output at all and all the apps that needed sound either crashed or gave an error
i was running some old aokp rom at the time, then tried fixing the problem by changing to some new version of cyanogenmod a few weeks ago but it didn't solve.
2 days ago i restored the stock htc rom with the RUU (ICS), the problem still remained. Then i upgraded to stock JB (4.1.1) and the problem hasn't appeared since.
of course the problem could reappear any time (as it only happened occasionally in the beginning)
let's assume the problem doesn't reappear again: anyone got an idea what caused this? i desperately want to switch to some custom rom again, stock is a pain in the ass :/
my phone: htc one s S4, unbranded EU version (htc_102 or something)
HBOOT-2.15.0000
RADIO-1.15.50.05.29
hope i could help and someone has some ideas
update:
i flashed cm 10.1.3 stable and used it for around 2 weeks without any (sound) problems.
since i had some trouble with force reboots when playing ingress i flashed carbonrom and one day later the sound problem reappeared.
back to cm now.
Same problems here

Hey, same Problem here...
..I had my old One S for 1,5 Years and this problems came up, so I sent it back and got a new one.
Only 4 days later the same problems came up again and i tried hard reset and many other things, recommended here, but nothing worked..
..has anybody an idea what it could be? There are a lot of people in a lot of different threads with nearly the same problems, but i can't find an answer that solves the problems...
PS: Sorry for my bad english
i've just had this delightful issue pop up over the past few days, too.
switched roms but the issue still remains.
Any of you have a logcat? Download "aLogcat" from the Play Store (you can filter it to only show errors - "E/").
I've been having similar issues and it makes the phone unusable. I ran a logcat and found numerous errors related to audio and the feedback I got was that it appears to be a hardware issue.
Post a logcat here and I'll see if you guys are getting similar errors.

installed it and will run it for a few hours to see what it gets.
should i change any of the settings on it or just run it vanilla?
I just ran it out of the box. Stopped it and then filtered it to show errors by searching for E/. Found a bunch related to audio.

i've decided for now i'm switching to magiorom as i've had a buttload of bootloops today on odyssey 3.21, so will monitor it tonight and see if there's anything to show.
for the short time i was running alogcat on odyssey, it didn't show much even though i was switch/using different apps, so that's why i was curious about if i should change anything.
anyway, i'll see how i get on and report back later
Just to keep this thread going I wanted to include some more things i've discovered while searching for a solution to this problem. I use a program called "error log dump" from the play store to view any system errors. The two most common ones I see are: "AudioPolicyManagerBase(261)" and "failed to enable the mixer controls for the speaker". The second one only appears after all sound is lost. Including any audio from phone calls even though it does connect the call.
Recently i've discovered an clue that seems to indicate that this is a software issue not hardware. Whenever I lose all sound I start up the error logging program and hit "start log". Several times the log program started acting weird and not record anything but the sound immediately came back. In fact that is how i usually solve the problem now.
I'm running a rooted and S-OFF phone with the MaximusHD rom. This problem started when my phone was completely unmodified so i know it's not a problem with the ROM.
Does anyone have any idea's as to which service might by causing this? I've searched and tried disabling everything that has to do with the audio.
I tried the above workaround with SIM out and WiFi off reboot, and I've got sound back. As soon as I finish a call all sound goes and can't play video etc until I perform the reboot thing again. Might this suggest something to do with the radio knocking out the sound? I'm a bit of a noob with all this but that's the idea I'm getting.
For the record I'm s-on, and this issue has been present for a few days now, on multiple roms (the issue remained on all 3 roms but is worse on magiorom).

This is why I was curious to see the errors you guys were getting.
I've tried various ROMs (4.2-4.4), kernels (3.0 and 3.4 based), and firmwares (2.15, 2.16, and 1.13) and still experience a loss of sound. Although I will say that lately it seems to be less frequent (Liquid Smooth 2.4, 3.0 based Bubba Vn5 kernel, hboot 1.13).
So I'm inclined to think it could be more hardware related for me at least. Turning my volume up and down repeatedly seems to fix it... usually.

So after using that work around for a bit, it seems notifications work fine, but anything that plays for more than about 10s kills audio again, but not permanently like phone calls.
Also, that alogcat stops recording as soon as it's in the background for me, don't know if that's another issue or connected?
E: this all seemed to start for me when my phone was left uncharged for 3 days

I ran it and called myself from another phone, watched the log, and then used the vol keys (which make that beep when adjusting sound) and watched the log. Saw the errors that way.
Yours appears to be slightly different than my issue anyways, but for what it's worth - I switched to ViperOneS (the last ROM I remember using that didn't have these issues) and my audio never dropped once.
Giving it a try now man, cheers for the heads up
Hi xda,
So everything is in the title. Not long ago the microphone on my TF300T just stopped working. I recorded videos without problem, and one month later, without me installing anything, it just stopped recording anything, no matter the app. I tried Skype, the camera, several recording apps... nothing.
Tried a cold boot and a data wipe, same thing.
Z-device test detects the microphone, but it doesn't record anything. When I record a video or try to use a microphone app, I get a loud pop and just noise. I've messed a bit with the gain and I obtain nothing. Of course ASUS support is useless. I have seen similar problems all around the web but no one seemed to have an explaination or a solution, all threads were just left hanging...
Stock rom, not rooted. Does anyone have an idea about the problem ? Is the microphone busted ? Would it pop like that it that was the case ?
