Youtube problem - Touch HD General

Hi,
I live in Turkey and unfortunatelly youtube is banned by the government. (and yes it is a shame for us) We can only enter youtube by changing dns settings or by using some certain sites such as ktunnel.com. Therefore, i am not able to enter youtube through youtube application on my hd. Is there any way to do that? I mean may be if i change some settings, i will be able to use youtube app. Any luck?
Thanks.

What I did when I was on vacation in China (where youtube is also blocked), was to use a VPN on my computer that connected to my workplace back here in Canada and connected my HD using ad-hoc wifi. You could also use activesync.
But these options all require the use of a host computer.
If you are using your carrier's data connection, perhaps the only way is to use some anonymous proxy like youhide.com to access m.youtube.com in Opera or IE and manually download the videos to view in TCPMP/Coreplayer.
Ideally, it would be best if you could connect to a foreign VPN directly through your HD. I'm not sure if there's any apps.. but this guy seems to have it going on WM5:

Anyways, good luck and hope that helps!

i solved the problem thank you very much!!

How did you solve the problem? Share it pls...

I have the same issue via t-mobile , conect ok via usb pc, who is your 3g service provider
I know in the UK, t-mobile class youtube as adult content. And by default the adult content lock is in place on everyones data service. If you phone t-mobile customer services they can remove this lock for you
I know that vodafone class practically ANY site as potential adult content and you have to get the lock taken off. Perhaps this is the case here too as suggested above? hope it's that simple mate.
Thanks for your help guys..
But I am in switzerland and I use my WiFi connection at home to connect.
Even then the youtube player gives an error.
My HD is not under any contract so I guess no one has locked any stuff on the phone.
The surprising thing is it logs on to my youtube account when I use account manager to sign in.
I have been playing aorund trying to find out the problem but success has eluded me till now..lets see if I find the problem I will post it here..
I have the same problem, am on a good wi-fi connection that works when I use Opera for browsing, but I get connection error with the default Youtube player. I have tried soft reset and removed last installed programs, no luck!
Anyone have a solution
Have you edited your proxy settings in Comms Manager so that you do *not* use a proxy to connect?
I had to do this so that i could use the youtube app on T-mobile.
Petrov.
Same problem on Orange UK, regardless of how I connect. It's been like that since I got it.

Thanks for your quick respond!
I have tried to delete all my connections and then set them up again (with no proxy), but still have the same problem. The strange thing is that everything worked when I got the phone.
Is there any connection settings in the Youtube application? I haven`t found any my self....

Hi,
install another youtube player. you can find another player here in the forum. it works.
I don´t have so much knowledge about this, but I had the same problem on my own. I think it is realated to the Flashplayer. So soon if i installed another youtube player, everthing from youtube works fine.

I had the same problem, tried several solutions with no luck. Started to use the other Youtube player, but as you say it`s not that good. The solution for me was to hard reset the device, and now everything works fine!
I am not sure, but I think maybe the problem was that I had installed several media players (TCMP, DivX, CP) and it became a conflict or something, after the hard reset I only have Core Player as media-software installed (+WMP) and all the other software as before the problem.
Good luck!
Petter
Thanx hard reset worker. my voice recorder software works now too thanx for the quick reply

confirmed, i spoke to a fairly knowledgable person in t-mobile support after i was having issues (he didnt even tell me to sod off when i said i wasnt using their firmware)
turns out on t-mobile they have switched to using a transparent proxy but the connection setup on the htc still puts one in, its enough to untick the proxy and youtube/windows live/activesync among other things start working. I havent managed to get skype going yet but i expected that to be blocked
default youtube player connection failed error message
I am having the same problems with my orange mobile contract. It worked for 2 weeks and im not sure what i did but its now giving me a connection failed error message. I cant seem to find any settings in the player or in comms manager. Im going to ring orange and see what they say.
Tronec, Did you get reply from Orange? I have same issue - Opera fine on WiFi and on "phone" but Youtube "Connection Failed"
I tried everything, never got past the error. Flashing a new rom fixed it, along with a whole load of other things.
Have the same problem. The hard reset didn't work for me. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Stock Youtube application cannot connect?

Hello,
it seems the stock Youtube application cannot connect? Both browsers (Opera and IE) are working fine, but when Youtube application is launched (either manually, or by a link in IE), it searches for connection for a while ("Downloading..."), then it says it cannot connect ("There was a connection error while attempting to download data. Retry?")
I am using 3G connection - is it maybe that youtube application works only over wifi (I kind of remember something like that...)
Thank you.
Fixed it... legacy ATT user here, needed to add proxy settings

[Q] Not able to download large files when tethered?

I cannot download files from my PC i.e. jpgs, vids etc... I subscribe to easynews and when I tether my HTC Hero 2.1 using Wireless Thether v1.60 for root users nothing happens.
I've noticed the same problems when using hotels wifi's where it notices that it's a large file and it stops downloading.
From the phone itself it downloads fine, but when I tether to PC it does nothing. Do I need to proxy somewhere?
thanks
Hmm, I don't know that many others have this problem that you're describing. Try updating your version of Wifi Tether. I believe there's a version 2.0 out, perhaps that could solve your issue.
See here: http://www.appbrain.com/app/android.tether
I think you can also upgrade it directly from the Market.
Sounds like a problem with your PC's wireless device.
Try uninstalling it from device manager (I'm assuming Windows operating system), then reboot your computer, let it reinistall the hardware and try it again.
No, it's not the PC... I tried it with three different ones. It's something SPRINT does from preventing downloads of big videos and sound files. If I use a datacard on the PC it works fine. The problem is when I tether. I have noticed that when I use a proxy site and then go to easynews.com I then can download without a problem.
It seems like Sprint might put some type of restriction on certain sites... can that be true and is there a way around it?
thanks for any info
Solved problem by installing PaperBus "you can use paperbus to access blocked web sites and bypass internet filters and such."
Now when I tether I can access easynews. Like I said, it seems that Sprint blocks downloads from this and perhaps other newsgroup services.

No... they do not
If an ISP where to be blocking a particular set of information from any site - you wouldn't believe the hell that would be unleashed upon them by the FCC and nerds alike.

Anyone managed to watch live stream (CBS, FOX etc) outside of US?

Hi all,
Just wondering if there's any vpn client/software that I can download off marketplace in order to watch live stream/recorded video directly off the browser on the SGS. They aren't opening as I live outside of US....any suggestions?
Kind regards.
bump.
No one knows or care???
VPN is built in already... Just need a US endpoint.
But most that rubbish you can get off Bittorrent anyway probably (not that there is much to watch on TV anyway these days)
I was also searching for a service which provides free streamlining, tried so many options and then one of my friend gave me back door access to see most popular US channels like hulu , netflix etc. etc.
Now when I changed my dns settings with the below open gateway of a vpn service, I can see unlimited channels so decided to share with all of my friends.
Try yourself, and change your dns address with the below settings to enable to watch US channels and refresh.
Primary DNS to 23.21.182.24
Secondry DNS to 184.169.139.227
Enjoy !! Do let me know if feels any trouble in launch.

[Q] Google Play and widgets won't runing with company proxies

Hi, I like the title, the company's wifi bind, the appropriate version of the opera to the Internet can be accessed using a proxy. But, unable to establish a wifi connection with Google Play or widgwets. Could you share the solution if there is?
thanks...
Use proxydroid. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.proxydroid&hl=en
doesn't work
Hi, this program doesn't work properly and i learned how to using ics with proxy but it doesn't work too. (in wifi menu, press wifi and manuel conf.) it's connecting AP but google play, ics default browser and WIDGETS don't runings. it doesn't ask me for proxy user name and password.
Do not nobody that can use this way?
A similar situation to try those behind the proxy, please?
thanks,
any solutions or idea?
Read my post. It works for me. This is how I do it at my work. Market and everything works.
