I just noticed that I can't see who sent me a direct message. I have heard of it on the Desire but not EVO. Anyone else having this issue and what can I do to fix it?
Peep is terrible man its usually the first app I delete on my phone lol; plus its plagued with bugs and I believe it drains alot of battery. Try the official twitter app or seesmic.
I just wanna know if its my phone only.
That's a bug with peep in general, still no fix yet.
Huh, I wonder why I never saw it before. I guess my last direct message was December2010
It has happened to me before and others with evos have reported this issue before. It seems to be a hit and miss, sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't.
It pretty we have to root to remove something that doesn't work.

Yeah with no root you're stuck with a broken app(peep) that drains battery. Root is awesome, try titanium backup if you want to remove it.
I ended up using the twitter for android. It seems to work well.

somebody can help thanks.
Did you try clearing data and cache in apps? Or even uninstall and reinstall the app itself
sent from my GS3
Usually I just exit the app, hold the home button and clear all recent apps and then it works again.

Hit the "Thanks" button if I helped you!
Easy fast simple solution when this occurs and usually after an update. Just uninstall the app completely and then go back to google play store and redownload the app.
Have a great day!
I have been tried all the way ( clear, uninstall update etc) but still error... I tried to install other program 'tubemate' still cant connect /play the video, but when i download the video first and play later is no problem..
Maybe something wrong with my data package on my carrier??? Hmmm..
Thanks for all advise...

Remove (uninstall) the app completely, go back to play store and get the new updated app again fresh install.

Same issue here. Reinstalling doesn't fix it.
Edit: But disabling Adblock Plus does fix it.

Ty, I've been hunting for a solution for some time now, and I didn't think of something like that.... It is true, when I disabled AdBlock Plus, I didn't see the error again.
Guess I either need a replacement for Adblock Plus, or something in it's settings to change?? hmmmm.
Again though, thanks again!!!!
:good::good::good::good::good::laugh:
wow thanks for this. It's been driving me insane. I removed Adblock Plus and it worked. So I installed AdAway and rebooted. Seems to still work fine also. So try that ad blocking app out. So far so good.
Solved ! ( apparently not related to AdBlockPlus)
To make a long story short, I don't have AdBlockPlus but i DO have DroidWall installed.
just forgot I had to allow "MediaServer" to access the internet (as well as YouTube of course) - problem solved.
This has been happening to me. I fixed it by going to manage apps. YouTube, Delete cache, delete data, uninstall updates and I clicked the turn off button. Ran cleanmaster app and removed junk files. Then I rebooted and turned youtube back on and now videos will play. I'm on the Galaxy S4 stock.
Hopefully this helps someone
By the way Facebook wouldn't play any videos it would say "can't play video" and now Facebook is playing the same videos that it couldn't before.

Thanks that did it for me as well. Have been searching on the internet but no real solution for people with a firewall or a privacy app (pdroid/xprivacy etc). But this made it work on my S4.

How about upgrading from that dinosaur you're using? Gingerbread is like 4 years outdated.
No AdBlock, Firewall, root or custom ROM
I have stock device 4.3 android (not Samsung btw.). As i said, no adblock/firewall/custom rom etc.
When I updated YouTube app, I got that connection problem.
I've tryed reinstalling, changing DNS1 and 2, clearing data... Nothing helped...
Any suggestions?

It's happening to me now too. But since mine's installed as a User App and not a System App, I can't just uninstall the updates, although I did try uninstalling it completely and reinstalling. No joy.
I've tried a dozen different things. You should know that lots of people post lots of "solutions", but for 95% of the users, none of them work.
I'm hurting especially bad, because it happens to me on both types of connections (4G & WiFi). I even tried a 3rd party YouTube app and that wouldn't work either.
All this since today's (or last night's?) v10.25.57 YouTube update!
I am running a Samsung.
Samsung Galaxy (SGH-M819N) Mega
KitKat 4.4.4 (Stock), Rooted
Thank You.

Hi,
I tried disabling AdAway and reverting back to the original Hosts file, but no joy.
This time, it's affecting both my 4G & WiFi connections. When this happened before, I could at least watch it on 4G.
The weird thing is, that if I'm not signed in, I can watch videos. But once I sign in, EVEN WHEN USING A 3RD PARTY YOUTUBE APP, I have the problem!
Yes, eventually a YouTube update will come through that will fix it (could be 6 months or so), but I'm thinking that something "underneath" it all got updated/changed at the same time, because otherwise;
Why would it affect me only when I sign in?
And if it was limited to only the YouTube app being updated and there isn't anything else being changed at the same time in the background where you don't see it, then how could 3rd party YouTube apps be affected when you sign in to them with your Google (Gmail) account?
See what I mean? Something else, "under the hood" simply must be going on, amen?
TTYL
What i have done so far is: cleared cache, uninstalled updates and then let it update on its own and then trying to update/resume downloads, factory reset. It is happening on my One and LG G pad. Anybody run across a fix or have any tips other than what I've already tried? I contacted Google and like an idiot when he asked about me being rooted i said yes. He blamed my problems on being rooted. I dont believe that is the problem since i went all the way back to stock with the same problems. Beyond frustrated.

The only one i havent tried is creating a new account. That kinda defeats the purpose and then I'll lose all my paid apps. Thanks though.

Yeah that ones kind of pointless. I think what some people say is create a new account just to update all your apps and then switch back. Maybe uninstall paid apps prior as well. And then re install once you update core apps.
To me it sounds like a google problem with your account. Does this happen when downloading new apps, when updating an already installed app, or both? Is it just paid apps or free apps too? Try to create a new google account just to see if you can successfully download a new app, or update your current apps. If it works with the new account, then the problem is google and not your phone.
Well, your not gonna believe what fixed it....I changed my password. Maybe something or someone got a hold of my password somehow and blocked the play store..thanks for all the suggestions!

I'm glad you got it worked out. That's annoying it was something so ridiculous.
Well..turns out that must have been temporary. After changing it, worked for a little while then, I had to change my password after purchasing apps twice, error out after each purchase...Google tech help is worthless.

I recently got a used LG Optimus G E973 (Bell version). It's rooted and the bootloader is unlocked. So now I'm wondering if there's a list anywhere of all the stock apps that are safe to remove for this model. There are a few threads about this in the AT&T and Sprint forums, but I can't find any here. Anyone care to help?

Most of the launchable apps are removable and you can find better ones. The one stock app that sucked was the email app. I suggest removing it and installing Nexus 5 stock email app with the exchange app. You will be able to do everything(fully synced) with one app(hotmail exchange, work exchange, gmail sync).
The messasing app is also bad, you can simply replace it with hangouts.

I would add that instead of removing the apps right away, it's probably better to freeze (disable) them and see if that affects anything. If everything is good after freezing, they can be removed for good. And if something is messed up, just defrost the app in question.
Titanium Backup Pro can freeze apps, but you can also use other utilities that are free, like Advanced Tools from Play Store.
Ok, thanks guys. I'm a bit new to all this rooted android stuff. Can I get rid of Google Maps? I'd like to replace it with something else because it's permanently sucking up my battery life. Also, is there a reason why the Software update is constantly running on my phone even though I have "check automatically" unchecked?

Sure, you can. If you ever need it again, you can always install it from Play Store as a user app.

I guess it's just designed to keep the service running in the background, regardless of whether it's actually doing the checks. You can just freeze the "Software Update", or uninstall it (that's what I did). Problem solved.

Any suggestions how to fix this sh1t without factory resetting?
Huh, thought I was the only one. This keeps happening to me as well. One way I stopped it for a bit was clearing the cache for the settings app. Although you have to be quick before it crashes and makes it near impossible to do so. Unfortunately I think this has to do with the latest update. Just out curiosity, what model do you have?

You may reboot to safe mode and settings become to work without bugs. But all other programs don't start. After reboot settings work, about 1 minute. Then, I presume some program starts into memory and crashes settings. I can't point to which one, and if it's 3rd party or stock service.
Do you have app named SRTC? Can't remember such app out of the box. maybe it' virus? but it's system and can't be uninstalled

Probably it is a new app that you have installed recently or an update or an app. Try to reset the phone in safe mode, if the problem persist is a system app problem. If you don't want to reset the phone try re-flashing the last kdz and if it doesn't work do a factory reset.
I've had this issue for months. If you have a 3rd party launcher, make a shortcut to the search bar of settings. I use Activities with Nova Launcher
There's an app in the play store that will get you into settings made specifically for this issue.
