Ever since installing the RUU and re-rooting with S-OFF, the YouTube app fails to load. It starts to draw the window, but within a split second it jumps right back to my home screen without actually launching. This happens regardless of how I launch the app (LauncherPro, Sense, link sent via Chrome To Phone, etc.), but I can get the app to play a video if I go to m.youtube.com in the browser and view from there.
Anyone else having this issue?
I had the same problem in 2.1 unrooted & rooted. Sometimes it would work, but once it stopped, I would have to reboot my phone to get it to work.

Anyone else having problems with Netflix after the OTA update that rolled out Monday that said Netflix would be fixed? Every time I try to get on it, it says connection failed, try again or press exit to close the app, and the Netflix loading screen is behind it with the loading "wheel" behind it.
I am having issues with it. It starts loading the viewing screen and then, in a flash, it shows the player and then goes back to the main screen.
As with the OP, any help will be appreciated.

After the 4.24 update, my netflix works just fine.
Hey everyone...
Lately I seem to have a rather strange bug on my phone:
Whenever I try to install an app from android market, the same thing happens:
The phone downloads the app and then it doesn't install it. It goes to 100% and then it disappears from the notification bar, before installing it. I have to download several times the same app, in order to get it installed.
Any ideas what might be the problem and the solution here?
Happens with me too. Also checked friends motorolla defy and the same problem repeats. Looks like it is a bug for market, not the device.
The problem mostly occurs when the same app is getting downloaded twice at the same time. Even if we cancel one download, the 2nd one goes to 100% without installing. But such downloaded app will be present somewhere in /data partition. Last time I manually installed it from there but don't remember the path correctly.

I RMA'd my first GNex last August with a cracked screen, the one I got back had some problems:
Camera App crashes. Sometimes on startup, other times after a few seconds, and occasionally it doesn't crash until after I've been able to take a full photosphere, but usually the first two. It shows force close screen.
Netflix crashes after a few seconds to a few minutes. It does not show a force close screen, it just restarts the app.
Youtube won't load videos and when it does, it gives an error after a few seconds or minutes.
All flashlight/torch apps crash either on startup or after a few seconds.
I got tired of this, and didn't want to deal with Verizon's ****ty RMA service again, and since it seemed like it could be a software problem, I chose to root it and try to fix it with a custom ROM. I flashed CM9 and the problem persisted. Thinking it was too late to go back, I've just dealt with it until like a week ago.
Then I heard that a 4.2 update was coming to the VZW GNex, and returned to stock using this method (Would hyperlink, but don't have post count. It's the first result when you google, "Return to Factory State (Unroot and Relock) site:rootzwiki.com" without quotes. I flashed the JB files). Shockingly, the camera, Netflix, YouTube, and flashlight apps worked. However, when the 4.2 update came along, it broke everything again.
So that brings me to my questions:
Does anyone know of any way to fix this? Preferably without rerooting, but I'm still up for that if necessary.
Would I still be under warranty if I followed the linked method for unrooting?
EDIT: I'd also like to add that music playback is interrupted when either the camera or the flashlight app crashes.

I'm already stock...
To reiterate: About a week ago I unrooted and flashed a stock 4.1 rom that fixed everything. When I got the OTA update to 4.2 everything broke again.
I also just did this, and it worked for a minute or so, but the apps are back to crashing now.
I'm having this really weird issue with these two apps for a while. Basically I would keep getting connection error in the Play store or on Youtube every few minutes or so, then I would retry and everything would be back to normal. Odd thing is that I can have a browser open in a side window and go to google or any other website just fine while this issue happens. I'm not sure if there's more google apps affected. Hell one time it was so bad that Youtube refused to load for a good minute or so, I opened a pen window for the browser, loaded up the same youtube video in there and it started playing before the app even loaded it (kept giving me connection error).
I have Adblock Plus running in the background so I wonder if that's what's doing this..but it seems odd for it to affect these apps.
Any ideas to fix this?

I don't have Adblock but I have issues with YouTube App aswell. It works most of the time flawlessly but sometimes like you it seems to take to long to load so what I do is close the app fully then launch it again and it works fine, I also had another weird issue of whenever I played a video in full screen and changed the tablets orientation it would dim the brightness to 0% (even changing the screens brightness to 100% wouldn't cause the app to brighten up) and hoy a "small weird box with what looked like signal bars next to it", this hasn't happened the last few times I used the tablet but its just bizarre so deffo something is up with the App that's for sure.
Hi guys, I never posted here but am trying to find some help. I've had my S4 for quite a while now, and I just factory reset everything because I kept getting a "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." message that wouldn't go away or let me use my phone without an interruption literally every 2 seconds. But before I even had that problem, there were worse problems as well. There are two things that occur frequently:
1. Sometimes, when I tap on an icon, the indicator light shows up (a glow around the icon), but the app itself does not open. Then, if i tap on it repeatedly, nothing happens. I can temporarily fix this problem by opening up the recent/opened apps list (holding home button) and clearing everything (or clicking on that app if it had been opened). Once cleared, I can tap it again and it would open. As you might see, this can get very annoying and troublesome after doing it so many times. Is there anyway I can permanently fix this so that I don't need to keep clearing the open apps list?
2. Sometimes, when I unlock my screen, exit an app, press the home button, or clear the opened app list (as mentioned above), my wallpaper changes to an app. The app is usually random and sometimes is not one that I had opened. For example, the background of my messaging app or Astro File Manager would show up even if I had not recently opened it at all. I can also temporarily fix this by clearing the recent/opened apps list (as mentioned in #1). After clearing this, the wallpaper resets. Is there any way I can fix this permanently as well?
3. Snapchat and VSCO Cam constantly "stop unexpectedly". I don't know if this is a firmware or incompatibility issue, but it usually works fine. This message pops up once in a while and isn't too burdensome, but is still quite annoying.
Thank you for all the help in advance. I am trying to get the most out of my phone and appreciate any help.
Are you running stock or custom and has anything changed since you factory reset?

It's stock right now. Not rooted or anything at all. I didn't really change much of the device internally, only downloaded a couple of apps, but those have been working fine since the beginning. It is running Kit Kat, 4.4.2. I am currently using Nova Launcher as my home screen replacement.
