Youtube: No video playback on CM 11 - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I flashed Cyanogenmod 11 on my Nexus 5 (Android 4.4.1 - cm-11-20131208-NIGHTLY-hammerhead).
Everything is working perfect except that the youttube app cannot play any videos (see attached screenshot).
- I tried reinstalling CM11, reinstalling the YouTube app, wiping cache & dalvik cache
- I can play video files from the internal storage wit the video player app
- Internet connection is working and stable.
Youtube logcat output: http://pastebin.com/BU6qrS6g
Is this a problem on my end, a problem with the youtube app or with CM11 (and should I report the problem to CM)?
If it's a problem on my end - can anyone help me fixing it?
Thanks.

Same Problem with Youtube App on Nexus 7 and Nightly CM 11.0

Fixed with upgrade to the latest Nightly Build

A quick word of advice:
if you flash a nightly ROM (or anything for that matter), especially something that isn't considered a stable release, try reverting back to your old setup to check if functionality returns. That way you can assume that what you've flashed has actually caused the break.
Nightly builds ARE NOT stable builds. Things can and will be broken.

Did you solve the issue? I have just started encountering the same problem.

Nightly builds state that there is a high chance of bugs and should not be used as daily drivers though more people seem to be. Whether it's down to not knowing how unstable they can be I've no idea.
Stick to Snapshots if you want it to work.......

on my phone after wipe market is still don't working :\ what gaaps you are using? if you can share link
question: can you turn off the trackpad mouse pointer, to work as 2.3.7
galery not working properly
otherwise a good rom, I like it
Pointer remover!
This update removes pointer but do not worry the D-Pad will work as in Android 2.3.7!
Update Not working so you need to put those files in /system folder by yourself!
Pointer will be fixed in next update!
Can't impossible get Gapps to work. Have tried evrything (I think)!
Have tried a couple other Gapps then latest one given in this thread.
Have tried installing CM9 and Gapps a couple of times, with reboot and cleaning cache etc in diffrent orders... without luck.
Latest I tried clearing cache, data, dalvik, etc.
Installed CM9.
Installed Gapps (given above in thread)
Reboot.
Evrything seems to work, but no icons/apps appear... >_<

thanks, its work for me!!
when i want install new release recovery show me that installation aborted
Now I've done some more testing... and done the installation over and over a couple of times
Theese are my conclusions:
* Installation of Gapps is partially working!
From one installation to another, diffrent apps and function is installed (or working) on the phone.
Theese functions I've found (so far) that vary from time to time:
* Gmail
* Market
* Screen lock
* Installation guide program when new user/clean installation
tested
After a while I managed to set up it to work good
1.wipe data factory reset, dalvik cache...everything
2.flash rom
3.wait for the phone to start
4.wipe again,start the phone
5.flash gpapps
Instead of stock gallery use quick pick.
Little bit slow when entering menu (probably becouse of stock zoom effect).
market working,camera working, synced account without problems
Great job!
I installed CyanogenMod 9.0.0 Nightly 2012.06.18

Great Job!
Hi Klavsanson,
I've installed the latest version and It's working almost everything, great
I don't know if it's my phone, but I can't neither use USB nor wifi tethering. This is important for my job.
I've previously wiped data, cache, dalvik
Gallery has an extrange behaviour as is not possible to see correctly anything-
Thanks for your job
Just out of curiosity
how come that gapps are so massive in size 80mb ?compared to cm7 only 9mb

I see the same issue. I also see fix permissions finishing immediately, presumably because it's running against the wrong directory or file system. Otherwise it's running quite well for me!

Is fixing permissions still required? What is this exactly?
I just did a full whipe and install from zip, cleaned also dalvik cache.

I would assume any time you have things running as root that manipulate files, you can end up with things in the file system that aren't accessible to less privileged processes and therefore cause them to FC. I don't see why 4.3 would eliminate the need for that, but I could very well be wrong.

6. booted
After swipe to desktop... What is failing: Chromecast crashes, Google voice crashes, Google Play Music crashes. Google Play Store will not actually do downloads of updates... it shows a new GMaps and Google Play Music - (newer than the new Gapps) - but refuses to download them, the download instantly fails.
My failing Google Play Store shows Build version: 4.3.11
Even though the Chromecast app crashes, I can still control Chromecast device with the Netflix app.

Took me a bit to figure out that the Google apps that were crashing are not part of the gapps zip package. You should just need to uninstall the offending app(s) and then reinstall via the Play Store and they should work fine. They did for me at least.

[Q] Hangouts & YouTube Apps - Force Closing after updating

Something strange happened this morning with Hangouts, it updated to the new version that been pushing out over the last 24 hours.
When i went to load up the app i get a FC, and the same is happening with Youtube (not aware of that app updating though).
I have so far tried
1. Removing and re-installing both apps
2. Clearing the cache on the apps
3. Cleared the cache in recovery and also dalvik cache
4. Re-flashed the custom ROM (Mahdi Rom)
5. Re-flashed the gapps (PA micro version) i had installed
6. Re-installing an older version of both hangouts and youtube apk files
None of the above has fixed the problem. I guess wiping system and re-installing rom would fix the problem, but this is a last resort.
Before this hangouts app update everything was working fine.
Any other possibilities I can try?

[Q] Can't Connect to the camera : Android > Oneplus One

Hello,
I am having issue with my camera "can't connect to the camera" on oneplus one (64gb).
Recently i formatted my system data using TWRP and after that it showed NO OS INSTALLED. So i downloaded nightly build from cyanogenmod's website and sideloaded the build in fastboot mode with gapps as well. During this process l lost recovery & backup, & encountered Can't connect to the camera issue, Please Help.
Everything was working properly even after this my device was much lightning fast & smoother.
But when i opened my Google camera then it displayed Can't Connect to the camera. I did almost all the things-
1. Firstly restarted the device to check whether it can be fixed by this method or not but my issue didn't resolve then i force stopped camera by clearing cache & data & then restarted the device but still same pop up appeared. On some forum thread's i also found that by installing app "Camera (CMFix) for Cyanogenmod" from play store will fix this issue, but app was not getting launched my problem didn't get resolve.
2. After getting all this issue i thinked to install snapshot build to check whether i can use my camera but this thing didn't work as well.
3. On so many forum's i found that changing the ROM will fix this issue so i downloaded Paranoid Rom and installed it but still my issue with camera didn't resolve.
I am following XDA forum as viewer since so years time and also i know that from here i can get fastest solution.
This is my first post on XDA developers cause i didn't find solution for this issue
Please please help me as i did almost all thing to fix my issue. I am ready to do anything to solve this issue. Please help
what version of gapps did you installed? in order for the camera to work you must install the "mini or micro" gapps package, when you are running AOSP, somehow the complete gapps package breaks the camera.
you can get the micro gaaps package from PA, it works for me https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=15797

To clarify this, you can install any gapps package as long as it doesn't contain a camera.

I did this once and had to flash cm11s once and then whatever rom I wanted after that in order to have a working camera.

Omg thank you!
Umm.. what is OMX? Also, can I flash this over 12.1?

Its regarding media playback (OpenMaX)
Should be able to flash it over cm-12.1.
Be sure to install arm64 7.1 gapps the first time round.
Amazing, you are the man! Thanks! Lots of stuff already working nicely. The only thing I noticed in a quick test is video playback not working, Netflix won't even start, and YouTube just shows black screen.
Edit: WiFi also still drops occasionally, just like on CM 12.1.
I'm having a couple issues already. i dirty flashed over 12.1. installed magisk, then xposed-v89-sdk25-arm64.zip, and open_gapps-arm64-7.1-nano-20190926.zip.
Not Working:
1. Home and Recent buttons do not work. Does not work in navigation bar or in other apps such as LMT and FNG (Fluid Navigation Gestures)
2. when I open Solid Explorer, I get "requested file was not found. Path: /storage/sdcard1
3. Can't get into Developer Mode. Nothing shows up when I tap.
4. the Play Store does not download at all. it just keeps pending.
5. Plex does not work.
Working:
1. USB C Headphones (Earpods) w/ 2 adapters.
2. Amazon Prime Video does work but very choppy. Unwatchable.
3. YMusic. (gets a choppy slightly)
Update: I did a clean install and so far it's working much better. I'll have to reinstalll all my apps and test the rest later.
TLDR: DO A CLEAN INSTALL. a dirty flash from 12.1 will give you problems.

Looks like a clean install is the way forward coming from another ROM.

That's the conclusion I came to. The major issue is video playback. I'll start looking into that shortly.
Great to see Nougat coming to Fire HD10. Thanks!
Just have to unlock my bootloader and will give this a try.
Quick question: if it doesn't work as I expect, can I revert back to stock ROM without any problems?

If you have an unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed you can make a backup of your fireOS and then try any rom you want. If not satisfied you can restore fireOS. Go back to locked bootloader with stock rom is also possible (but why?).
PS: There is also a fully working Lineage 12.1 if you won't wait for video playback.
@retora Thank you. Tablet wasn't unlocked yet. Just manually debloated and rooted Stock ROM. But not many important things on it, so a factory reset wasn't that much of a headache.
Did the bootloader unlock, no problems at all. After it flashed this 14.1 ROM, GApps and Magisk. So far it seems to work really nice. I am just setting it up and will play around a bit.
Yeah, I saw that there is a 12.1, but I am sure @ggow will get the video playback working soon.
Is the download delay in playstore still present? This seems to be the most important issue as I learned in the 12.1-thread.
One new issue I noticed (was working fine on CM 12.1) is that I can't set up the Gmail app. It asks me to add an account, but if I try to add my Google account it tells me the account is already present on the device. Other Google apps like Photos work fine.
I did do wipe (but no data format) before installing the ROM, and I installed the pico gapps together with the ROM.

Haven't experienced any delay with the Playstore. First I installed some benchmarks to compare it with the Stock ROM. Seems to be 4-5% faster than the Stock ROM, if I look at the average of the benachmarks I used.
Just did an update to all apps for which an update was available via Store (YouTube, Google, Photos) - started downloading right after clicking on "Update all". No delay either with starting the next app after updating the first one.
So far I am very satisfied. Gonna try some bluetooth devices and see how they behave.

Its regarding media playback (OpenMaX)
Should be able to flash it over cm-12.1.
Be sure to install arm64 7.1 gapps the first time round.

So if we're coming from your other ROM, we don't need to wipe? Just flash this and the newer gapps?
@GuyInDogSuit Some people are having issues with that so a clean flash is recommended

Grant gmail app permissions and all will be good.
Any idea why I can't install Google Play Games?
Did a fresh install of the ROM with GApps mini. The Games app is downloaded by the store but fails to install with a general "The app can't be installed" message.

@GuyInDogSuit i did a dirty flash. i encountered many problems. a clean install is recommended.
@ggow perhaps you can add a note in your post to do a clean install if upgrading from 12.1 to prevent further queries regarding this issue.
