Youtube app: error press to retry - General Questions and Answers

About 50% of the time this(see screenshot) is what I get when I use the Google youtube app. I can use another app like viral at the same time and play the same video and it always works. So the issue has to be with the youtube app. Any suggestions what I can do to resolve this? It makes the youtube app unusable most of the time.
I already tried it on different networks, clearing data/cache on the app, reinstalling, restarting, relogging. ..

Am I really the only one with this issue?

No you arent. Due to latest cm11 sources yt APP doesnt work with its latest version. Downgrade to 5.1.10 and it works fine

Had that same error also..i just installed older version of youtube app..

It works fine for me. Youtube app, youtube site, and other flash work fine on google browser.
if you have the official twitter app, get rid of it, restart and try again.
First thing i did after rooting was disable twitter and facebook lol. I dunno why it wont let me play anything on youtube. it makes me force close everytime it starts.
EDIT: this is way annoying just tried dolphin browser, skyfire, firefox, google and they all crash right when I push play.
EDIT#2: I cant even play videos from the video camera. I might have gone a lil crazy with titaniumbackup and uninstalled the video player. What is it called?

i am on CM7 - any ideas how to fix this?
thanks for any help
Hello again,
i tried with JackpotClavin's latest ICS ROM and youtube
app is working there if u choose SD versions of video.
Seems to be an issue with CM7 then?
The YouTube app on CM7 with the stock kernel works perfectly for me, and it has for a pretty good while as well, so I don't think it's CM7's fault, or a version issue. Maybe you should try reflashing gapps (is youtube included among those)? Or clearing the app's data/cache on the app management settings menu, then try watching a video again.
Some other questions that might help: Is your internet connection definitely not the issue? Can you play any other streaming content available on the web reliably?
Good luck!
it's working now! had to allow some more processes in
droidwall (media server, google stuff)
by the way it is not part of the gapps it has to be downloaded
from the android market
thanks for the help!

[Q] Google Music FC?

I'm running the 2.6.3 OTA rooted, and everytime I try to sync or stream from Google Music, it FC. I tried clearing the data, unfreezing everything, reinstalling updates and resyncing, syncing over WiFi on the first sync, and it still FC.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem on the MB865, and is there any solution?
Thanks!
Don't use the version from the motorola update.
Try another apk from a newer version.
I was using google music before the OTA update and was fine. After the update stopped working (version 3.something). Reinstalled the previous verions (4.something) and everything works as expected.
I tried uninstalling music from ROM Manager and then installing the Music 4.0.9 APK, and it still force-closes on streaming.

Go to the Android Market, then go to my apps. Google Music should be under "not installed"... click on it and then press the "Update" button. ROM Manager would not conflict with Google Music.
See if that helps it.
Okay, I did all this, and it's still FC. Are there any third-party apps that anyone knows of that can stream from Google Music?

Facebook videos freeze

I'm on ARHD 7.3 and with the latest facebook app version. When I try to play any uploaded video on the facebook app it plays for about 2-3 seconds and freezes for the rest of it while the audio is still going. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue and what could solve this...
I don't think it was like that before. I think it started since facebook changed their layout again.
Same problem. any fix?
I have the same problem. Also appears on YouTube videos.
Any fixes at the moment?
Any suggestions?
Tried to revert YouTube & Facebook to stock versions, didn't work.

YouYube app

I'm having problems with youtube lately... I have the latest version of the app (it came out today) and it says that can't find the server and the videos don't play.
Any help?
hmm... I haven't had this issue. Try deleting the app and reinstalling it?
