I recently installed a Nougat ROM (Specifically this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/wip-aosp-nougat-nexus-5-t3446875) and after I did the youtube app has started acting up. Now after about a minute of video playback the video freezes, but the audio keeps playing. This happens for all videos and I can't find a way to make it stop. Before anyone asks...
-Yes, I tried flashing the file from the FAQ section of the post that contained the ROM.
-It isn't an internet problem. I've used the same internet for years and nothing's changed. It's been fine up till now (For reference, I'm getting 8mgps down and 28 up atm)
I use YouTube on my phone a lot, so getting this to work is important to me. Thank you for any help you give and for your time.

I had a similar issue. Try either updating it or downgrading the app. Downgrading worked for me

I tried this. Sadly, it didn't work. I've since switch to AOSPA and everything is fine over there. I'll come back around when this ROM is further developed.
I have the same issue, you could fix it?

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.
Someone is having problems with lag on youtube version 2.3.4? Slowdowns of every 5 seconds, in several different roms gives the same problem, now if I install an older version of youtube, the problem goes away, back to normal.
Someone is having this problem?
I tested it on two sensations, which is on my 710E and my friend who is 4G.
do the test with you, pay close attention to the video if it will not slow down, then come back normal, is 5 sec slows down again, back to normal there.
dont have any problems with mine. are you using wifi connection or 3g connection?
It happens to mine as well, except that the default YouTube App version is lagging the video playback ONLY when Timeline bar is brought up and keeps lagging unless it disappears.
I am trying to find out wether this is Software ( ROM or w/e ) issue or Hardware.
I did take my phone to warranty service and they were unable to help. Jerks.
I am seriously willing to void warranty and flash preinstalled ROM with CM or just a stock one, ONLY IF I know for sure that his is Software issue.
Note:
I did test for this issue on multiple WiFi's and 3G ... to no avail. I think it started after 2nd factory data reset I did, and nothing changes when I do the reset ...
This problem DOES NOT occure when you play the video via Internet Browser on youtube.com or m.youtube.com
I am concered about Hardware issue since phone feel sluggish overall ( slideshow scrolling when there are not that many elements on UI ... ) and it lags a bit 1080p video (picky,ye ...)
Edit :
My thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444808
the problem is that if you install the old version of youtube everything back to normal, it is clear that the problem is in software
Well, I guess I am going to live with laggy phone/youtube app for now. Should get ICS update and see if it fixed the issue, if not...
I am going ROOT that mofo and take that *@#$ ROM down with my own bare hands.
actually, after installing the latest version of the ICS ARHD 6.1.1, which also comes with youtube 3.3.0 the problem is over.
Glad you fixed it. ICS Is the best
For now.
Anyone is experiencing a very slow wifi since the 4.2.1 update on a Asus TF700t? I can't even watch a 2 min video on YouTube.

I saw this post a few weeks back and have asked a few people on 4.2 about it and I'm not hearing anyone else cite this issue. You seem to have an isolated problem for some reason. Maybe something got corrupted during your "upgrade". If you can't fix it you'll probably have to backup your apps and data then do a factory reset and restore from backup to fix the problem.

Is there a way to save my apps and my savegame? Because it's a real pain to reinstall them one by one and loose my savegame from my favorite games.

Use Titanium Backup from market if you have root.

Some people have had success fixing this issue by disabling WiFi Optimzation in the wifi settings. Never had an issue myself, on or off, so I can't say it works from personal experience.
I'm having the same problem. I've tried downloading and reinstalling the factory ROM right from ASUS but that didn't fix it (so don't waste your time trying that).

I'm on 4.2.1 and was having awful WiFi performance. Disabling WiFi optimization did the trick for me. Cheers!
Could it be a YouTube server issue and not really your tablet? I'm was still running the .25 firmware and noticed about 3 weeks ago the playback of video clips was very rough. The problem was the video stopped loading and creating the buffer for smooth playback. It would load 20-30 seconds, then stop, and start back up. It lasted a few days and then was fine again. Nothing had changed in my set up.
Is your phone connected to the same wifi to test loading the same clips? How about testing the same clips from your computer or on your phone but using the cellular network? I'm just trying to toss some ideas for other possibilities for the youtube issue. How has the tablet performed for other tasks?

No it's not YouTube cause even my browser is very slow. I've try with the apps speedtest and the result is awfull.
Update: I've just try the wifi optimisation trick by unchecking the box, deconnecting and reconnecting to my wifi and the wifi performance is back. thanks you all.

Wow, it's working. Thanks Faustus.
Hi folks, my apologies if this is a known issue but i'm asking as the amount of info is monumental. Have been having a playback issue for a while now but i need to get to the bottom of it and was hoping someone here may shine some light on it. As the title says youtube play back is pretty poor. I have a rooted Tf101 running KatKiss 4.4.4 with the latest youtube version and constantly get stutters freezes and buffering. Thought it might be my Wifi but with my phone (LG G3) i have no such problems. Have tried clearing cache and app data, reinstalling and even older versions but with no luck. I have also tried overclocking with no luck, so am i wasting my time and this will never work properly or is there something i am missing. Again thanks for any help offered.
You need to lower the quality to 480p or use an older version.
Search forum for the latest version that works.
Will try it at a lower res first, thanks. Seems to do the trick but noticed that the 480p setting has gone. It's either 360p which is terrible or 720 which appears to be to much. 480 was good middle ground, (still shows on my G3) which is the same YouTube version. Any ideas on how I can get it back?
Was present a few days ago but now its gone.
Hello,
I have a same problem on Katkiss 5.1 (23).
Any idea ?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Free mobile app
Decided to go back to KK because its still faster then Lollipop and after formatting data and system YouTube is working great in 720p.
Pretty odd, no?
Hello everyone.
I'm having trouble with my h950 (installed the PR 5.1.1 rom long time ago) device.
A week ago WiFi stopped working. This is:
When I choose a network I want to connect to, it starts connecting but instantly the wifi turns off and then it turns on and it turns off and so on...
I already tried doing a hard reset and also installing the KDZ for the 5.1.1 PR version again but it remains the same.
Has anyone gone through this issue or anyone who can give me any advice?
Thanks
more info?
Hi there,
what is the *exact* behaviour your WiFi exhibits? Does it keep flashing like in this video?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W8YJMDFM88
If so, you might be experiencing a hardware issue. I've written a detailed summary about this, you may want to check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/qa-wifi-stuck-mac-020000000000-g2-g3-g4-t3452133
Good luck, and keep us posted if you find a solution for your problem!
NimbleWeasel, thanks for your reply.
I got a friend to upload a video. on youtube Not the best quality. Ignore the sounds
I can't post a video since I'm a new user. The youtube id for the video is R1pKIzJ5mwg
I think it IS the same problem.
If it actually is a hardware issue, I guess I'll just have to get a new phone.
WiFi trouble...
hi disreggae,
i watched your video but it seems to be a different problem.
i'll write you a private message with something that you can try if you want.
