Youtube app working again. - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

If your having problems with the youtube app or having trouble streaming music from a 3rd party app, go to post 14 below. Motcher41 found a post that migh help.

So what does this change? From what I saw online it's to check for OTA updates?
I tried watching some youtube videos on 3G from my house and it actually played after typing it in... I'll have to see if it works in the other places where it usually chokes.

Sprint did not know why the app was not working so I called HTC. The person I talked to at HTC said to do this.

It's driving me nuts ..must be a YouTube problem bc its not a network problem for me

Talked to HTC again about youtube and flash.
Ok after a total of 9 phonecalls to HTC and Sprint trying to get a straight answer about why the youtube app and orb app stopped working, someone at HTC said that abobe has pulled support for flash lite from mobile devices. If you took the last ota update, any app that uses flash will not work now over sprints network.
Still works in the browser over sprints network but not near as good as using the app and for what ever reason, the apps work fine over wi-fi.
Question. Isn't the app still using Flash Lite even over wi-fi? Why does it work over wi-fi and not sprint?

It doesn't make sense that it doesn't work on 3g but does on wifi if flash support was to blame

I should also add my buddies gs3 on sprint has the same issue as us with YouTube. Its gotta be a sprint thing. He was told be sprint the YouTube server for sprint is down

I entered it into the dialer and this time it did not work. It did work while I was on the phone with HTC the first time I used it. I could not use youtube before I entered it and then tried youtube after I entered it and was able to use the youtube app.
I just tried the youtube app over wi-fi and it worked, turned off wi-fi got back on sprint and connection to server failed shows up in the screen when I try youtube.
Guess I should have waited to post what I thought was a fix but it did work when I first tried it so I shared it.

I'm getting a "Connection to sever lost Touch to retry" error.

Thanks for this info. This might be enough to sway me to get this instead of the Nexus.
Got mine today and can confirm it works just like my Thunderbolt. I don't understand why only HTC is smart enough to put this in their phones.

Phone stuck in roam

Last night I was playing around with Viper Rom. There was a phone info menu with a bunch or settings that had to do with the network settings. The menu to get to this from other ROMs is *#*#INFO#*#*
I changed a setting for preferred network or something and the radio band setting. Now I can't seem to default it. I did a hard reset and even RUU back to stock. Nothing seems to work. Looked into the CDMA workshop settings. Nothing in there seems to help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you have more questions I will try to answer. I'm stumped on this one. Oh and whenever I try to change the band again and it freezes and restarts.
Please help
Are you getting roaming charges applied ? (You can call customer care and confirm) .....Because after I flashed CM7.2 on my wildfire I used to get the roaming notification and the signal showed a R...roaming. But when I put in my sensation, when it was stock ....I didn't get the roaming thing.
Also when I put another network sim in wildfire I didn't get the R.
Freezing and restart used to happen too when I would get a no signal suddenly. Happened when I tried to choose a network manually.

Phone doesn't work on a SIM. Not sure about the charges, it looks like its just running off Verizon towers. I want to say I messed up the default radio settings that carry over through flashes. Just not sure exactly how to default them

you sir saved my life. I am sending a donation your way. Thanks 100x
I would like to add to this post that after reprovisioning, I actually get a better, more stable 3G connection. My phone used to jump into 1x mode a lot. Now it's steady in 3G. This may be a fix for that common issue on this phone? Just a shot in the dark. It's significantly helped my battery last longer today.

Issues with data... more than the standard issue. Please help.

Ok so my data has not been working at all the past few days. I have tried stock ROM, meanrom, and cm10. It would work for a few minutes and then go to nothing. I finally tried switching it to just CDMA and it works... I'm in a 4g lte area so why would that be? Also if I try to update prl, firmware, or profile it just keeps searching for hours. What should I do?

Thanks! Flashing stock with goodies right now to try it out. If I flash back to cm10 will that cancel out all the updates though?
Ok I tried it but I don't have the password... Even tried the meid converter and used that password and it still didn't let me.

A couple of days ago, my phone had no 3G service, but it would sometimes pickup 4G but my connection usually didn't last very long.
I was running the updated radio 1.12.11.0809.
I downgraded back to the stock 1.13.651.1 ROM and I had my 3G connection back.
Im sticking with the stock radio.
they are upgrading your tower in your area. that i am 100000% sure of
that happened to me also, and a couple of days later it will be back to normal again, and switching it back to cdma will work.
when they finish upgrading the towers is should be good again.

Well It has been over a week... maybe even 2 weeks. Is that normal?
this is happening to me, I was on the phone with sprint for over an hour....I have done the ##78286# code with my MSL and it resets, but I still boot up to just a x/signal bar....Somehow i think my radios corrupted and will not be able to use this phone....
edit: i was able to get signal, but still having problems now after a full ##786# code

[Q] Flashed To Cricket Very SLOW data Speeds

I just flashed my Sprint Htc Evo 3D to Cricket Wireless and now my data speeds are 15klbs downloading and 8klbs uploading.I am running OTA ICS Rooted and unlocked.I have changed my proxys under the Http settings in Epst and still no change.I have flashed over 9 phones(This being the first sprint phone)and have never had any trouble like this.If someone could help me i would so greatly appreciate it.I am on the $70 Plan and am no where near my data limit.Thanks everyone who takes the time out to try and help me i wouldnt be worried about it but i use my tethering which is the only source of internet i have for my laptop..I work from home online and im losing money on kind of this.PLEASE anyone that sees this Please if you can take the time out to help me i would be so thankful.Thank you so much.My Question is can anyone please help me figure out how to fix my data speeds?I have called Cricket and everything is good on there end so i know its this phone.Also my wife has a phone on the same line and her data speeds are perfect..
Have you tried updating the radio version or do you have poor signal? I'm on cricket and if I have a not so great signal my data basically comes to a crawl. You also could try *22804 and update the prl ota, you might have the wrong version.

How do i update the Radio???I think my radio version is 1.09.Which came with the ICS OTA update from sprint...At first when i first flashed myphone it wouldnt let me dial *228.I have tried about 9 different PRL's and now finally i can dial *228.But i live exactly 1 Block from the nearest Cricket Wireless tower.Most of the time i have Full Bars at home and its still slow..But i flashed my phone myself and i thought i did something wrong so i paid a flashing service to do it.But then after they did it and it was still slow i reflashed it again.What is your Download speeds?
Yeah thats the exact proxy i am using..What rom are you on?Because i also thought maybe if i flashed a custom rom it wouldnt cause me any more trouble.Because i really like this phone and i want to keep it but im so ready to trash it because of the Data speeds...I talk on my phone maybe 10mins out of a whole day and the rest of the time i use it for internet..

The wire trick is very tricky to get to work, I was in hboot 1.58 when I first bought this phone and I had to have HTC sync and the adb drivers installed in order for that program to find my phone, and if you have any trouble with the timing of the wire trick look it up on you tube, I had to do that lol

Same story, same problem. Using dirty unicorns. Very slow data speed. I had to flash an HTC one v from virgin to cricket and get great data speed. Maybe because the sprint firmware is different and routes data a different way? I am still searching.

My best guess, is what @w7excursion said. Your sim card has not been programmed for your account. Your best bet, would be to take it to Sprint store, that is also a repair facility. You may have to go to more than one, until you find someone competent enough to handle it.

And yea I got it from best buy and had them replace my first one and then I called sprint like a month ago and they stated they had no idea. But if you literally Google those words sprint and note 3 you will see other people are having issues with it. I think sprint is having problems having to depend on a similar card for lte.

You're not the only one with useless data speeds. I'm happy on days when LTE speeds reach 1Mbps, here in the Houston area.
