[Q] [XOOM 2] Updated YouTube app doesn't work - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I recently bought a XOOM 2 Wi-Fi only 16GB 10.1 and updated it to ICS, then after updating the YouTube app the app doesn't even lauch it crashes and asks me if I want to send a report. Is this an known issue? And is there a way to fix it? I can use the app by unninstalling the update and using the version that came with the tablet but I like to have everything updated and the notifications annoy me.
Thanks,
António

Please post all questions in the Q & A section. Thanks! Thread moved.

Same problem here with my Xoom 2 Media Edition 3G, but it also occured with ICS. Since the last Youtube update, the app refuses to open.
Interestingly, when I click a Youtube link in the browser and choose to open it via Youtube app, it does play the video. Then, when I try to go to the Youtube main screen from there, it force closes again.

Youtube force closes with machinima videos?

Anyone know why any video by machinima will automaticly force close? That person posts the very best videos? Can a OP in youtube block youtube apps from viewing?
Is this the youtube app or youtube web that crashes?
If you post a link of a video that's been giving you problems, I'm sure we can test it for you

Only in the youtube app , try and search mortal kombat legacy for example, thx for testing it out to
definitely crashes. I've had this problem the whole time i've had my transformer. It will play in the browser but at no higher than 480p. always crashes the youtube app.
Yea only with videos posted by machinima ? and since broswer flash is so laggy with 720p I have to watch the videos in junk mode. Hope there will be a fix for this
Crashing for me too. How strange! I did notice that when I loaded the web version ,they have a LOT of link annotations at the beginning of their videos... maybe that's crashing the youtube app?

Ran into this issue as well, both in the native app and the stock browser. I found a link from a different user for the same video and it worked fine.
With the youtube app it is very important that you register the google id that your transformer uses with youtube (i.e. set up a new account if it doesn't already have one), Then make sure you are signed in when using the app.

This is my issue as well. Seems like a very specific bug too. I have had FC's on a smattering of other videos, but always on Machinima ones.
Edit: I decided to try the same video on a whim on my Nexus One and it works fine (even in HQ). This is definitely nothing to do with it being mobile, it has something to do with the HC app.
that explains...
...why whenever I go to the subscriptions page it crashes the app.
yup, unsbscribed and the app no longer crashes on subscription screen... browse to machanima and it crashes. wonder what it is about machanima that the android app hates...
You can use the JetVD application from jetvd dot com to watch the video stream from YouTube.

It crashes on all honey comb tablets (galaxy tab, acer, asus, xoom) within the native youtube app
Works flawlessly on the ipad 2 though
Is there a bug report for this somewhere that we can add some weight to? I couldn't work out what the hell was causing the crashes but now I've unsubscribed it works fine. Seems like a really odd bug.
Hopefully it'll get fixed soon as its one of my favourite channels.

has anyone else found any kind of fix for this yet? Machinima is the largest content of videos in my subscription list and I'm finding it increasingly annoying that I can't watch them in the native app.
is there a fix for this?
using tab 10.1 and having the same problem

[Q] Lost option in "Complete Action Using" Dialog from Facebook for Android

Hello All. Noob here. I've searched the forums as well as google and not found a problem quite like mine. When using Facebook For Android, when I click on a youtube video link, the "Complete Action Using" dialog opens, but the Youtube option is no longer present. The only options are:
Dolphin Browser HD
Dolphin Browser Mini
Internet
Opera Mini
I have checked all of those as well as the Youtube app and none of them have any default setting.
Please advise me on how to get the youtube option to return
Thanks in advance!
*My apologies. Just realized I did not place this in the Q&A Section*
NM. I uninstalled/reinstalled the update and the YouTube option returned.

And now the YouTube option is gone again. WTH?

I am getting the same problem now too. I used to play videos from fb with the youtube app as well. Could be a facebook v1.6.1/1.6.2 problem
seems to be fixed in the fb update today, 1.6.4

YouTube problems

I've been having problems playing YouTube videos on my tablet.
Sometimes it will play with out a catch but then I run into the continuous force closes while trying to load the video up.
Is there a fix or anything I can do?
My tablet is not rooted.

Force close when trying to play any video here, I'm assuming it's a problem on Google's end.
I have been facing this same problem since today.. I was using the youtube app extensively yesterday without any issues. Hopefully they resolve it soon.

I have same issue. Will not play videos that worked fine yesterday. Apparently not a TF issue but a google /you tube issue.
I have the problem with youtube on my asus tf101.
I have the same problem with youtube. I live in the far east of Russia. Yesterday, when trying to play videos on youtube from the asus tf101, I got an error message playback. And today I am forced to dropped the tablet in the factory settings, but nothing has changed and now the application is forced to close when you try to view the video from youtube. Already thinking ins custom rom.
Same problem here. Maybe theyre preparing for ICS? *fingers crossed*
I have the same problem. I didn't know what it was because it started exactly following my changing my YouTube setting to always start HD videos. I thought I broke something on my transformer (I just rooted it last night). It's good to know others are having the same problem.
Mine is down too. It is also not showing in the market either. Anyone checked to see if it is still on their phone?

Same here. No problems on my ics NS4G, but on my stock TF101, youtube is borked.
+1 here

working fine on my Htc Desire HD,
workaround i find for now is to launch it from your browser (www.youtube.com) or there is a great app for downloading and watching you tube video (tubemate)
thanks

Can't Reinstall
Well, crap. I uninstalled my YouTube App via Titanium Backup, and now I can't reinstall it. I've tried both the .apk, and via Titanium (with each option in Titanium).
I'm rooted and a pro-user with Titanium. Any ideas on how I can get it back on? Can I flash YouTube with CWM?

For music try 3, google play music android music player or ported walkman app from SonyEricsson mobiles (search the forums)
For videos try moboplayer,mx player,dice player or bsplayer
Install kies or samsung drivers and try also google drivers (search the forums)
Try to root the tab and install cm10 work good in this tab

for music and one of the reasons for getting an android tablet... Power AMP with rock EQ preset enabled.
as for the driver thing, i uninstalled the driver from device manager and rebooted the computer, it redetected the tablet and installed fine, though it did take longer to do so this time, but it worked.
as for rooting... not sure yet. though i would love to get the kobo app working normally... whatever this preinstalled ReaderHub thing is it hijacked my library.
wifi times out...
Another question... is there aa way to keep the wifi running constantly while streaming video? It likes to stop mid stream forcing the video to pause while it rebuffers more (which sometimes causes the video to start over or crash)... very annoying in my opinion. I do not hsve this iissue on my win 7 wifi desktop.
I am running the stock browser since it allows me to access all my crome bookmarks and has working flash (.17 build from the adobe flash download archive site)
I think their is option to disable sleep of wifi in setting

I would try it anyway it may help, I see your scenario, while streaming or playing video tab should be awake anyway.
This is an issue when streaming music and the screen times out. You have nothing to lose trying it.

I'm on the same boat,
Hello Fellas,
I spent hours today trying to set up video chat applications in may N8013.
I found and installed 5 different apps from the market, One of them has a video that shows you how to set it up, it last 35 minutes,,,wtf? That's longer than flashing my phone and installing all my apps,,,and the video app is older than the new app and it's sooo confusing.
Is there any way to have FACEBOOK VIDEO CHAT WORKING that doesn't take all day?
Thanks a lot in advance, i hope this thread help other too.
