There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry. - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

When I try to watch YouTube videos, I get the error mentioned above after three or four tries it takes at loading the video. This occurs no matter what ROM I'm on, or what version of YouTube I use. Sometimes after I switch ROMs I get about 10 minutes of video playback, but then I get the error. Thank you!

Also, in an unrelated note, I have found that TTS never works on PA. It just FCs. Has anyone else found this?

I've got the same problem. Whenever I try to play a YouTube video (doesn't matter if it's on the YouTube app, or the website) I get the "Touch to retry" error. However it was running smoothly just a week ago. The only change I made was installing the Semaphore JB 2.9.8 kernel. Is it possible that the kernel has caused this problem? I'm running CM 10.1 on my Galaxy i9000.

Well the search didn't get me to the semaphore thread and the semaphore was only a guess, so there's no need to be mean.

Odp: There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry.
Well, you said you applied semaphore, what is te problem.to read its op then? If you would do so then you would not have that problem.

Copilot won't start - anyone else?

Good morning all.
My Copilot (Live EU West version) freezes on the splashscreen for about 10 seconds, then just shuts down - no error messages. It doesn't seem to be running in Task Manager and Application Settings, but the icon persists in the notification bar until I clear it.
Tried with three ROMs - stock, Omega and Hypergalaxy. Have tried a fresh installation from Play and via a TB backup, same result each time. GPS is fine.
Anyone else and/or any advice? Awaiting reply from Copilot Support.
Many thanks.
CP Live premium runs for me on rooted stock .
Advice from CP is to delete all files and re download when changing roms .

Hi JJ. Tried that, still no go. Going to try a wipe>new stock ROM and see what haPPENS.
This same exact thing happens to me to on my Galaxy S2 and I have tried heaps of roms with no luck so I don't use CoPilot anymore but use Navigon Navigation which seems pretty good but still prefer CoPilot.
Update if anyone's interested - after a full wipe and factory reset, it now works on (a different) stock and Omega, but not HyperGalaxy or Zoom - these two are both very slim ROMs, ca. 200 MB.
HyperGalaxy's dev is investigating.
I think it's ics fault.
I had this issue with an old Copilot version. Use 9.1.0.269 or higher.

Co-pilot has the worse support ever! nevermind the support page on Copilot itself. it's confusing and frustrating.

There were no tts packages in the "slim" ROMs mentioned, but I installed them myself. They worked, CoPilot still didn't.
No help at all from the devs unfortunately. One doesn't have a SGS3 and one uses Navigon, so I can't complain. Their work, their choices.

Pocket Legends on SGS3

Do any fellow forum members play Pocket Legends on a SGS3?
I have massive issues with the game on mine at the minute where the game frequently freezes and kicks me back to my touch wiz home screen.
I've tried several custom jelly bean roms and a stock one and also ics roms and I still experience the same issues.
Has anyone else had similar issues, and do you have any work arounds?

What do you mean? The game comes off the android market and updates are stored in the games cache which can be up to 30mb.
I don't think installing/downloading the apk from another source will make any difference...? Unless you know otherwise?

Ive downloaded it from other source not from the market and I dont have any problem. The only problem is when a new release is available it doesnt refreshes so you have to wait 1-2 days until someone makes that version cracked and then you have to just redownload.

YouTube connection problem on Vodafone UK

Hi all,
Have the above problem and can't find the answer to it. I have tried loads of different roms and none of them allow me to access YouTube via the official app. I can view videos via the website and using rolles YouTube app but not the official app. I have just updated my mum's s3 to jellybean using the official update non rooted and YouTube works fine.
Is It something to do with being rooted, running a custom Rom or something completely different?
How can I solve this, any help would be great.
Cheers in advance,

You're not alone. I've been suffering with this for months now. I'm not on an S3 but on a Galaxy Nexus.
I'm currently running AOKP JellyBean M1 having the same issue. Can't remember if I had the problem on stock because that was back in January.
Google say they can't help and Vodafone say it must be the phone as there are no issues. I believe it has something to do with being a root user.
Very annoying as at work and home I get full HSDPA with unlimited data and I can't even make full use of it.
Over WiFi is fine, just on mobile internet I get the problem so clearly a conflict with Vodafone UK.
If anyone still having issues on this matter its because your fast dormancy rule is wrong when you are on custom roms.
edit the build.prop so that the value is =2 and reboot your phone.
ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=2
=1 means enabled
=0 means disabled
=2 means vodafone setting

I had the same problem. Popped into a Vodafone store, got a new SIM (mine was getting a bit old), and now it works. Worth a shot.

Google Now on Stock Rom.

Alright, following This Guide I got Google now working.
To summarize what I did
1. Root phone using the Korean Root method
2. I unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM using Project FreeGee
3. I booted into CWM and installed This zip.At the I was writing this guide, I freegee was on version 0.5
4. My phone restarted and froze up about twice before finally staying booted. It seems to have normalized now.
edit:Right now most things seem to work.
If anyone finds a better version of Google now, please let me know and post the how-to.
I didn't make the zips and all I have done is follow the instructions and write down my personal experience. I give full credit to the author of the original post for their instructions/work they did. However, since the LGOG doesn't need project Butter, Google Now is the main thing we are missing from 4.1 and it should help ease the wait for a stable AOSP ROM. If anyone has any issues let me know and I'll make a list.

THis is great news. Right now I'm pondering whether to get this phone or the Note II, and Google now (which I have on my Captivate running SlimBean 3.0) is the one thing I really cannot imagine giving up.
Question: when you say that Calendar/settings alamrs don't work, do you mean that they don't work at all, or that they don't show up in Google Now?
I was referring to not working in Google now. Although i did manage to set an alarm with it shortly after this post.
Also fwiw I had the captivate too. I try to stick with nexus hardware.

Uninstall stock voice search with titanium backup or you will get problems with android keyboard. It makes it try use them both for voice typing. I'd assume it may be the cause of any and all problems.

youtube not working since updating to jelly bean

I updated my l9 to the official Indian jelly bean few days back and since then youtube app fails to play any videos over wifi. Wifi and internet otherwise works perfectly fine on the device. Even in the youtube app I can search, look up videos within my subscriptions fine , just can't play anything over wifi. I get the error - "problem while playing touch to retry". Works fine over 3G though.
I have rebooted the phone and wifi modem/router multiple times which didn't help. I also uninstalled all the updates for the youtube app still no help. Reinstalled the youtube updates still same problem

I haven't rooted my phone yet. The only reason I am reluctant to contact lg service center because I think they may not consider this as a phone/device problem. But I will try that eventually.
I feel if I could reinstall the youtube app it might help but then I'm not rooted and this app came pre-installed.
is there a way to remove pre-installed apps without rooting?

As I always say, XDA is not for lion-hearted people. Others should not even come here. :laugh: I am not rough and tough user and take good care of my phone, therefore I dont care about LG's warranty and thats because I am here on XDA.
Even if anything happens to my phone in future, I will take it as bad-luck, but till then my phone will live life to the fullest. :angel:
You can update YT, if it shows Update button. Otherwise No, if not rooted.

youtube is working again over wifi on my p765. I have been using the default router+modem(huwaei) provided by my ISP for last 7 years. Since it was an old model (54mbps, only b/g) I was planning to get a new one and finally I bought and configured the d-link 2750U and youtube started working again.
I still can't figure out what exactly made the difference because the old router was working perfectly fine all these years with various devices including my p765 before the jb update.
