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.
I'm running on AOKP M3/Franco 15.2
Whenever I try to play a youtube video, it just hangs at loading. The loading indicating circle just sits there and this happens both on 4G and wifi.
I tried clearing data/cache but it still does the same thing. The weird thing is, I can play videos fine within browsers.
Same thing happening to me today. was working fine yesterday. Suddenly today nothing. Stuck loading then errors out.
No update, no new apps installed. Works in the browser, not the youtube app.
I tried searching, and couldn't find any threads about this.
When browsing in the app, YouTube displays fine. However, when I load a video, it cuts off quite a bit of the video. An ad will play fullscreen, but the video will not. This wasn't a problem before. It just started happening today. I tried rebooting the ATV (center click + play button hold) and that didn't help. I cleared YouTube's cache, that was of no help as well. I'm wondering if I'll need to try reinstalling Youtube.
Picures of what I'm talking about are attached.
I'm not sure if it helps, but I am rooted on Software Version 51.1.1.0_user_511070220
Thanks for your time.
Uninstall youtube and update latest root firmware., then reinstall youtube.
I noticed this exact same thing last night however it wasn't on every video, only some of them.

I have started seeing the same problem with my FireTV Stick YouTube App. It did not happen earlier.
I tried uninstalling and re-installing YouTube App, but it did not help!
Anybody know how to fix it?

it did and i also adjusting the screen resolution on dispaly panel in settings.
I found one workaround.
When the video is cut-off, press menu button (three horizontal lines) on the remote once, that will take you to the search screen. Then press back button to go back to your video which should be now be either less cut or full screen. If its still cut-off, repeat the steps one more time and it will be full screen.
Annoying but works for now!
If you don't want to update to the latest pre-root, then completely uninstall YouTube and reinstall. Most people believe that simply uninstalling then reinstalling works, but doing so often leaves traces. You must clear the cache and dalvik to ensure it's cleaned from the system. Here is how to do it.
Uninstall the app through the settings. Reboot to CWM and clear cache and dalvik. Reboot. Then reinstall the app. If this doesn't fix the screen issue, then you might want to try updating.

Yesterday this started happening to mine also, strange it only affects certain videos.
My AFTV is unrooted and uses standard app, only posting to re-enforce that the problem seems to have suddenly appeared.
I will just keep an eye open and try and narrow down which are causing a problem.
This recently has been happening to me and it's on all videos. The YouTube app has been acting weird on my tablet as well, but less frequently.
hm, I left it alone for a while and now it seems to be working. that's fine and all, I would just like to know what caused it so that we can fix this if it happens again, or is still happening for others.
thanks for your input everyone.
HI , I have a Verizon Note 4 - Latest firmware.
I've had a few problems, one is the embedded Youtube Videos inside of Chrome Browser will not play audio. I can go into the application manager and clear data then it works. But after a day it goes back to no Audio. Resetting the Data every time is becoming a pain,. has anyone else experienced this issue, or any fixes?
Also, the "Contacts" app keeps force closing, It usually pops up Force Closed 2-3 times, then finally will open.
Any help ? thank you guys
So this is a problem I've had since switching to the Note....videos play fine on youtube but eveywhere else, I get nothing. Some examples - if I load Facebook in the browser (doesn't matter which, I currently use Now), I get the video preview but when I press play, goes black. If I try to load a video through tapatalk, black. If i try and watch a youtube vid attached to a play store app, black screen (unless I jump over to the YT app). This also happens when trying to watch any video on a web page and in Reddit Now. Videos work just fine on Instagram.
I'm stumped. Ive switched the video player back and forth in Dev options with no success. Has anyone had this issue?
Try installing flash...

Well that worked one time and then stopped. I was able to load an instagram video in the browser, but since then, its back to nothing working. Removed Flash as well.
I really dont want to reset the phone, and likely wont. Its more of a minor annoyance than anything else. Still sucks not being able to play any videos in a browser.
