[Q] weird youtube app issue on my sgs2, help!!!!!! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just noticed a very weird issue on my sgs2: YouTube app does not work.. I can't view any video. Search don't work. Can't even load up my favorite... it always shows "there was a problem connecting to the network" . Also, when using the browser, trying to connect to connect to www.youtube.com also yield "data connectivity problem. The server failed to communicate. Try again later." I know that the YouTube server is fine... YouTube site and app works perfectly on my galaxy tab 10.1. I'm not sure what could be wrong on my phone... please help!!!!!

I'm not sure if this is related but.... last week my phone had an issue all of a sudden... the Google account stopped working, I couldn't connect to gtalk, gmail don't work, internet browser works but just none of the Google services work. I researched online and found that using an app to fix this issue: htchost. I ran it and it fixed all my Google account issues. I haven't used YouTube at all these days so I'm not sure if this is at all related.
I just tried to run htchost on YouTube but doesn't fix this issue... anyone know what may be causing this??
I'm using xxkg5 ROM with ninphetamine 2.1.3 kernel. Thanks!

have you tried just uninstalling it and reinstalling from market?

YouTube came pre-installed... I can't uninstall it

Check the date and time on your phone. If it doesn't work I guess you'll have to titanium backup your phone and wipe data and cache. Maybe just update the ROM as well.

I'm not too sure what you mean by check the date and time. It's set automatically by the carrier network and it is correct. BTW I updated YouTube from the market, still makes. No difference.

ok I figured out why... it's my hosts file being screwed up by the app... manually editing the hosts file and removed the entries for YouTube fixed the problem

[Q] Market Web Installs never start downloading.

Market web installs from "market android com" never start. ('m not allowed to post links)
Under "My Devices" in the settings page it shows my Atrix, It has a "Registered on" date (today) but it doesn't have a "Last Used" date (it shows a dash).
I have followed all the suggestions on the help page. (log in, log out)
My Market App version is 2.3.2.
Google Talk works. The Market App works. Clearing Data and Cache for the Market doesn't help any.
I'm signed in with a regular Google account. (not an apps account)
Any suggestions?
This might sound obvious, but have you tried restarting it or resetting it?
Yep. Lots of restarts.
Does the market work on anyone else's Atrix or is it just me?
I read somewhere that if you open Google Talk and sign out then sign back in, it should get the market web installs working because of a communication problem.

Yeah, that's on the help page. Didn't work.
Empty market cache, and uninstall market upgrades (if any). Had the same problem before with other phones, I do not think this is atrix specific.
Getting the market to upgrade afterwards required some manual steps as well. Too lazy to look that up now though, just google it.

I emptied the cache and uninstalled updates. On the first launch I got the old market, on the second launch it had upgraded back to the new one. I also tried a reboot. Still doesn't work. Good idea though, thanks.
Bump! Any fixes for this? I'm having the same issues. The Market web store even lists my phone being last used on Feb 25 (the last day it was pushing app downloads from my computer). However, when I download apps from my phone, it shows up on my account online.

I thought I was having this same problem, but I was in battery saver mode and had auto-sync disabled. After re-enabling it, the downloads just began automatically.
I had the same issues at first and tried all th above fixes and the ones on the google help page. nothing worked at first. i waited a few hours and tried downloading again and everything worked fine. i can't really explain how but it just started working.
I have had this problem for 5 days =/ Now I just chrome to phone the link and open it with market =/ I have done all the above, contacted Google and posted at Motorola Site. Nothing works.
Darn I am having the same issue. Just got my Atrix an hour or two ago...so we will see what happens. I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: Mine just started working, so I don't know what the problem with yours is. Hope you get it worked out.
I have same problem here with my Hd2 DFT android Rom maket works fine but it never start downloading any apps :/ please some help ??!!
Do you have apps/the market to update only on wifi? And you haven't opened the apps to have them generate an, "I'm here", marker for the market to send you stuff, when you were hooked up to wifi?
I wondered the same thing...
Good news guys Google talk was not working for me so I re flashed my phone and reconfigure it now Google talk work and market too I don't know if it will works for you but for me it working great now hope it help a bit

Port 5228
This may not help everyone, but I ran into this same problem.
Each day, my downloads weren't sent to my phone and my gmail wasn't pushing consistently, but by the time I got home, everything seemed to be working again. I noticed that I was also unable to log into google talk on my office's wifi (which seems to be the key to getting everything else to work). A coworker with a samsung android phone was having the same problem.
We worked with our network administrator to unblock certain ports on the wifi firewall. We finally resolved this issue by opening port 5228. Now everything is pushing correctly. See if this port is blocked on your wifi.
The weird thing that kept throwing me off is that even if I switched off wifi and used ATT, it was still having problems for a period of time.

[Q] Google Play server error

On ICS and no problems till yesterday, was updating some apps on google play and had to leave the wifi area, closed the prime and next time I get server error. Tried stopping the app deletining cache, still same problem. So tried uninstalling all updates to play and got back to Market, still the same error. Tried a Factory reset and still getting the same error.
Any ideas anyone ?
Just tried looking at Google Play on the PC and does not now recognise the Prime even though Gmail has synched OK on it

Hi,
It might be worth deleting your account, re-booting, re-installing your account , and see if that works.
Tried that, eventually resorted to a Factory reset. Still the same problem and now the Prime is not recognised on the PC Google store whereas it was previously, but Gmail is syncing withe the Prime no problem, really weird. But if I cant access the store its not fit for purpose and is going back

Have you tried simply turning off your Prime's Wi-Fi setting and turning it back on? I got that same Server Error and did not go away until I turned of Wi-fi and back on. Weird, I know. This happened to me like 3 times when I was trying to delete caches and data and whatever else to get rid of the 101 error. Rebooting did not cure it, either ... I had to actually off/on the wi-fi setting. Go figure.
Once you get rid of the server error, if you still have the Market/Google Play error, simply delete your Gmail account under Settings | Accounts & sync by clicking on your Gmail account, then clicking the "options" icon on the upper right of your screen (6 small square dots). Reboot and go back into your gmail accounts, etc ... logging in as necessary.
Hope it works for you, too...
Have the same "server error" on 101 for 2 days already.
Tried everything, including changing to different firmwares, different market versions e.t.c. Not working. And old versions does not auto update too.
Seems like the problem with market server address, but it;s a bit strange that it remains even after changing firmware, and other Google services work normally.

You did not mention removing your Gmail account under Accounts & sync in Settings, then rebooting ... worked like a charm for me. As soon as I logged back into Gmail and went to the Market, all was well. So, if you did not already try it, you might give it a shot. My Prime was getting that error for a full day ... got really annoying.

So Google are still deniying its their problem see email response
Hi Michael,
It sounds like you're having general connectivity issues - please try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
- Reboot your device
- Sign in and out of Google Talk repeatedly to restore connection to our servers:
1. Go to your device’s app launcher, and press the Talk app
2. If you’re already signed into Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out
3. Launch Talk again to sign in (if you are unable to sign in, please let me know)
- Clear the cache of the Google Play Store app (Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Play Store > Clear cache)
- If you're using WiFi, ensure firewalls are not blocking access to ports required for Google Play (TCP and UDP 5228)
- Confirm that there is strong connectivity on your device, and contact your mobile service provider if you aren't connected
- Uninstall updates to the Google Play Store app by visiting:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, selecting "Play Store" under the "All" tab or filter and touching "Uninstall updates"
If none of these steps resolve the issue, please let me know, and I will continue to investigate the problem - any other detail you can provide about the issue and how/when it occurs will be extremely helpful.

Brice

@TaIz82 @stevenshea great! Glad that it worked for you.
@G1azier I tried vpn but no use, maybe I got on wrong one Great that there is this solution too.
@macowbourne
This can hardly be an general connection issue, I have around 600 people visited my blog post, with same issue. And they didn't have it ever before.
One more proof that this is not connectivity problem, all this user can search apps from the phone, but they cant install them in most of cases. So connection to server still exist, problem is with showing filtered content of home screen of Play app for some regions/providers.
Thanks to @G1azier post and his solution, I updated my post with US VPN solution that works even if device is not rooted http://viewoneworld.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/google-play-server-error-quick-fix check it out!
It's definetly at Googles end just used a proxy server to kid it I'm in the UK and hey ho works perfectley all apps downloaded and synced

Can't download/update apps from Google Play via wifi

I've just flashed the stock rom on my gs2 and now i can't update or install new apps. i was using litening rom before and for a week or so i couldn't managed to update some of my apps, so i flashed from sammobile and the phone's working. But when it comes to updates or installs from google account, they doesn't work.
I've tried all the advices i could find but none of them work including wipe, factory reset, clearing data and cache.
If someone knows what's the problem, please post. I'll be deeply grateful.
Just noticed that i can't do that only via wifi. so it's an isp problem or something else?
Google play
Hi.
Did you manage to fix your problem? I had similar problem. I could only download from the Google Play Store using wi-fi.
I managed to fix it after I deleted my APN proxy and port settings.
Then I could download from Google Play Store using my phone carrier's network. Strangely, I found that after I re-inputted the APN proxy and port settings, it still worked!

I got the same problem...
After i've done a factory reset to my phone (btw, it's HTC Desire C)
I am unable to update/download new apps from the Play Store over WiFi.
Actually, i was able to install Dolphin Browser via the Site, but after i tried to install Go Backup the same way, i was unable to download it.
I switched to 3G/H and it's was ok, it started to download it without any problem...
This is strange, i have this problem 2 days now.
Also, i did a factory reset to my router in case it was blocking my phone or something, but thats not the issue as i was thinking.
Thats STRANGE!
Any ideas?
EDIT:
Seems like it downloads/updates whatever it wants
I have updates for:
GMail, YouTube, FB Messanger, Google+, Go SMS Pro, SoundHound and some other ones...
I managed to update almost everything exept the Google's and Top Developer Apps...
Now.. THATS STRAAANGE!

Hi everyone..
I am using my first android phone Galaxy S II from past 10 months. Model no. is GT I9100.
Now one problem come up from yesterday that when i connect my phone to my Wi-fi at home, i can open internet, youtube and the google play store.
But when i try downloading something from the play store, it just shows be the downloading bar but does not download. Now if i do the same with my mobile internet, the app downloads perfectly well. However I am able to download anything on my laptop and my other Nokia mobile. Some of the persons suggested to clear data and cache of Google Play Store that I have done. Even I have also selected uninstall updates of Play store but the problem persists.

Have you ever linked your Google account and YouTube account on the YouTube website? If you log in to YouTube using a different username then this is required first. If you log in using your Google Account address then they will already be linked.

When entering Youtube app do you see an error at the bottom that only says "Error"?
With the newest version, I have that error. With older ones I'm all good. If yours is like that, I can provide an older youtube version for you to use.
Troubleshooting the error seems the problem is caused by failed authentication coming from Google Play Services. Tried messing around with GmsCore.apk, clearing data, deleting apk and so on but it's a no go. Few people seem to have issues on the web, but no solution so far. Seems to occur with modified gapps, but even with stock gapps I can't get it to work.

[Q] Youtube connection lost error

Hello,
I have had a problem with Youtube saying "Connection to server lost." I have found other sites (including this one) explaining a lot of fixes and workarounds, but nothing is working. It's not just over WiFi that the problem exists as I can be on the mobile network and it will still give the error. I have gone so far as uninstalling the updates, and it will work with what came with the phone, but once it updates it no longer works. I don't have any apps that would create a proxy such as Adblock, so I know it's not a redirect problem either. Anyone having similar issues with their Padfone X, or even know of some sort of weird trick that maybe I am missing?

I guess I could do that, but it is just a bandaid to a problem. I am sure there is a reason the updates don't work, or a solution could be found. If anyone was to know, I was hoping it could be shared so everyone can know what's going on.
Common problem. The only solution, despite many threads about changing your DNS server and other solutions, is to uninstall all the updates and turn off auto-update.
If you're like me and hit Update All for the 384,763 apps that need updates every so often, use the Detach from Market option in Titanium Backup to take it off the list temporarily. Note that it doesn't stay detached from the Market for more than a brief while.
I'm having the same issue with my padfone x.
So like same prob here but it wont even work with old youtube.

I rooted my Asus Padfone X and uninstalled youtube to download a cracked version so I could download vids the crack didnt work so I found one online that worked. After a while it auto updated so i tried the update wouldnt work. Then uninstalled and installed old again. Two months later it auto update new update worked for 4 hours now nothing will work not even 2.5.1
Uninstall all updates to the app. The stock app should work fine. I had to take it back to the base with no update and leave it there for months, then a recent update made it work again for me.

none of that fixed mine. Even the stock app. mine is running kitkat 4.4.2. I ended up downloading a youtube player from the amazon app store. The only functionality i lost is chromecast support and remote player control. I can live with that. Note that i tried vtube and that one had the same connection problem.
Same here. Nothing worked for me so I deleted the app. YouTube via the browser works as it should.

I don't have any apps that would create a proxy such as Adblock, so I know it's not a redirect problem either. Anyone having similar issues with their Padfone X, or even know of some sort of weird trick that maybe I am missing?
