Ok I found a way to get it back. If I open the app the click one of the suggestions and change the playback quality then press the back button the searchbar shows up but I have to do this every time I open the app. Does anyone else have this bug?

Youtube 2.1.6 question

I am using this version of Youtube that came with Mikfoyo. I cant seem to figure out how to share videos. I've tried clicking everywhere. The older version of youtube I was using was a lot easier when it came to sharing videos. Can anyone help me with this.
After you click on the video you want to share you have to click on the button on the top rite that says more, then the option to share through facebook and such shows up.

So click on the video and have it start playing? If i do that the HQ button is on the top right. I tried clicking everywhere else on the screen and all it does is pause what is playing.
Are you trying in portrait mode? With the phone straight up and down or do you flip it over cuz it works for me

Good call. Only works in portrait mode.
Cool. Glad you got it working

You can disable it but you can't use the space it used to take up at the top of the home screen. I just got holo launcher (a home screen app) and now I have all that space usable too.

After disable Google Search, try to apply the theme again and the search bar should be disappeared.

Close apps

Does anyone know how to close apps when you hold the middle button down without swiping them all? Task managers don't work. Please see my photo

If you are on stock rom, i'm afraid there is no easy solutions ... i didn't find any myself
On custom rom, some give access to a button to close every running app, CM10 for example, on top right of the screen

Double tapping to play/pause music like in ipad is also OK.. Then it would be so amazing to have a "music life"

There are apps that use the proximity sensor to control music controls or even unlock the phone from one. Type on proximity or something and they should pop up, I know this is not what you are looking for but could be an option for now

There are some mods which let you reprogram your home button. You should check out Xposed framework. Also, you could go for a virtual bar which emulates home, menu and back button. There is a very nice app which is called something like "dynamic app bar" in the play store. Maybe you could use that app to create a special button for music controls.

[Q] Any way to fix updated Youtube app bug?

I am using a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4 with Wicked v5.1 Rom, and I have consistently experienced an issue with the updated YouTube app. Every time I watch a video in landscape mode and then turn it into portrait mode, a black bar appears between the status bar and the YouTube search bar. The bar doesn't go away even in landscape mode. The only way to make it go away is to exit the app, but the black bar always comes back. It really is quite annoying. I know that others have the same issue as I do because of what I have read on the Internet. Does anyone have any suggestions? I really hope that Google fixes this.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I love the new UI.
But is it the latest version?

As of yesterday when it was released.
I've noticed similar problem with this version as well. You can see it on top of the title/menu bar.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I should mention that I've tried other roms like GE and they don't have that problem. I think it's TW related.
Here is the before and after the portrait/landscape/portrait turns.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Both old and new versions have the same fck bug. Its ridiculous. A version before those 2 was fine....
I am on infamous roms and when in landscape mode I can't even view the seek/status bar! I have to go to portrait making it smaller then tap the vid box again to see how far through a vid I am or seek back and forth... I read one other review on Google apps play market so I know it's not just my rom, but there must be something up with the gs3 not letting me view this bar all the time.
