YouTube app no longer displaying snapshot.

My youtube app no longer displays a small snapshot image of the video. Instead I get a grey/white TV icon.
The video plays fine once you tap on the title.
Anyone else experience the same problem?

Yeap, exactly the same problem here. I guess something must have changed at Youtube's end.

Hello,
the same here... no pictures in the listing anymore.
Is this realy a "server" problem, or a HD failure?

same here what's going on.....first it's google maps zoom in now youtube, what's next???

I dunno, but it's a pain

Apparently Google have updated their back end and this is causing problems with You Tube on many HTC devices.
I was told that HTC are working in conjunction with Google to provide a fix.

yrreP how did you find this out. good that you told me. i thing i reset my hd about 5 times. thanks for the heads up. do you know when its gonna get fixed

HTC told me..!
It came from an official source in Taiwan.

Hope its true and get fixed as otherwise its doesn't make any sense if one cannot see a preview pic in the list.

Seems to be working again

Mine is working just fine... I am posing this message on Nov 20th, Thursday night at 9:30 PM EST from USA.

Result!
also working in UK (Friday 21st Nov 07:10 GMT)

When I try to load the YouTube App, it says "Connection Failed" - anyone know why this might be (I'm on a HSPA connection - data is on). Also, when I load the youtube webpage, the thumbnails for videos appear, but the video's themselves do not...?
I've loaded .Net framework 3.5. Any help appreciated!
Petrov.

I've tried a hard reset now - but still no luck. Youtube app comes up with "Connection Failed". I'm with T-Mobile in the Uk. Anyone else seeing this, either in the UK or as part of T-Mobile in the UK?
EDIT: I've figured it out. If you get the HD from Expansys at least, it comes configured using the T-Mobile proxy server. To get the YouTube app to work, I had to go to Start>Settings>Connections (tab)>Connections (icon)>"Edit my proxy server"> then UN-check the block titled "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet".
Nonetheless, while the youtube app works and lets me play videos via the application, I still can't play videos from the actual youtube.com homepage (or any other flash video sites).
Hope this helps others too. Perhaps even worth a mention in the wiki tweaks?

sounds like you're volunteering there mrpetrov

cant play youtube on att pure

got my pure about a week ago. since day one i hard spld it and have been flashing away. i never checked youtube on any of the roms until a few days ago. what is happening is i click youtube play. it loads the screen showing most recent vids and shows the picture of the video to play on the left. i click the video and it goes to full screen with the buttons. says connecting and the wheel is spinning like its searching. that is all it does then. just searches and searches. never ever a video gets played. just wondering if anybody with a pure is able to watch the youtube play videos without any problems. it might be something in my phone that i have to get it exchanged. i dont know. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Isn't this just the removehiddenproxy cab? If so, it's already loaded on the Pure!
I get "connecting" a lot on some videos, yet others work fine. If the linked hiddenproxy one is different, LMK, and I'll try that.

The pure has it. If you unlock medianet, you will see that there isn't a selected proxy, and you can verify "hidden proxy" with the cab...
start, tools, proxy manager.

that's obvious if you use the stock rom. if you flash a different rom that is not the case.

worse than u, i even can't run it after installation of cab...
some one said it is the problem of rom.

Notice how youtube on the internet regular computer requires you to login for even slightly risky content?
I'm thinking it's THIS.
Is there a new HTC version of youtube player that allows you to login to youtube?

Youtube

Hi all
I am having problems with logging in to youtube through HTC sense on the HD2. I can log in to Facebook and twitter just fine, but whenever I try to log in to youtube, nothing happens - the icon does not turn green, but stays greyed out. I have tried on 2 different HD2s, using two different youtube accounts, and have even tried following a hard reset with the same results. I have tried to log in using the data services in the settings, and also using the account manager in the connections settings. I would like to be able to upload my videos to youtube from the HTC album, but of course I can't do this until I am logged in.
Is anyone having similar issues? I am using the 1.43 ROM on O2 in the UK. I don't really want to upgrade until the official ROM is released.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Just had the issue with my German Tmobile ROM.
Youtube was disabled...or no idea what Tmobile did to the ROM.
Now with the clean 1.48 everything works fine.
regards
brook

I'm on t-mobile on the uk and YouTube does not seem to work over 3G or HSDPA. works ok over wifi, now running 1.48 WWE ROM.
Sent from HD2 keyboard

One thing I will ask, is there any way when using the Youtube application, that when you do a search, the search results are similar to that of the actual Youtube website.
I often do a search in the app and will get no results, or very different results and on the website will gain the proper results.
Any suggestions?

***double post***

Youtube login fix
Ive noticed something odd about the logins in Sense UI for youtube (and probably Facebook etc), if you have a non-alphanumeric password (a password with say [email protected] etc ) you won't be able to login. Just change your password with google/youtube and you can login. I assume the same goes for twitter and facebook.

Thanks for all the responses. Looks like my best bet is to wait for O2 to bring us the official 1.48 (or 1.49) upgrade, or to try the goldcard method. Just to respond to some of the suggestions, I have tried both over wifi and 3g with the same result, and I already have an alphanumeric password. Anyone else having this issue?

yep I have an official o2 ROM and I can't log into YouTube.

Looking suspiciously like an issue with the O2 rom. Have asked over at the O2 forums if anyone else is experiencing this. Will keep you updated.

Im on o2 and I dont have a problem, works fine for me.
Im also still on .143 rom.

Another troll post by you... reported!
On topic: If your device didn't come with the youtube application, you might want to try this alternative: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508984
For all Coreplayer users: Coreplayer also has Youtube integrated.
By the way:
I have written ALL of my recent posts on the HTC HD2. Typing on a mobile phone has never been so easy.

I made a thread concerning the youtube app and the camcorder. My T-mobile device didn't come with the youtube app so I decided to install it but it seemed to mess up my camcorder. I wasn't able to play the videos back.
Has anybody had this problem?

yep i`m on tmobile and i have the same problem, desperate for a fix!!!!! i have the original youtube app off the topaz/hd but my videos wont play when this is installed, uninstall it an my videos play fine. i wish i had the knowledge or understanding to make this work, unfortunatly i dont LOL!!
someone on this forum must know how to fix this, surely!

OK, I'm making progress. I created a new youtube account, which I can now log in to properly from the phone. My original youtube account still isn't working, though. From feedback I have had elsewhere, I'm wondering whether this has anything to do with the fact that this is linked to my google account. For those still having this issue, I would suggest trying to create a new account on the youtube website and trying to log in to that. Also, I noticed that I have to log in using my user name only, not with the email address, as this doesn't work. Hope this helps someone.

same problem
mine was working fine until today when I goldcarded it to the official htc 1.48.405.2 rom. now it doesn't work.
anyone figured this issue out yet?

Google Music beta - Outside US access :D

Hey Guys
Woke up this morning to an email from Google saying my invite for Google Music beta has been accepted! In the process of uploading all my tracks now..
Thing is... I'm in New Zealand. I did request an invite with a proxy browser but I never expected to actually get an invite as it's currently closed to US only right?
Unless they've broadened their reach in response to iCloud, otherwise the proxy was all I needed...
I should note that I have a Google voice account by the same means (proxy browser), maybe that helped trick them.
Either way I thought I'd post to see if anyone else has gotten access besides our American ...friends.
So far it works great, but all my album art is the same image, and it's taking a very long time to upload, also the upload program has skipped 4000 songs due to an error.....
And what happens if I change the filename or meta data of a song, does it upload it again as another song? I'd also really love the ability to delete a song from my harddrive if I delete it from the cloud, as I have a lot of music that I haven't yet decided if its worthy to keep or not.
This is really great because I have unlimited 3G access with my employee plan @ vodafone

I got the invite too this morning and I have access to google music without a proxy. I'm in Romania. Still, because of this, I can't download the music app from the market.

Try this m8...
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.notenking.mf

Or rather this one: https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler

I got mine last night too. But I am beginning to question how much I'll use it as I don't have an unlimited download plan...oh well, it's always nice to have

I did the same thing from the UK, got an invite a few days ago, have uploaded some music but not quite sure yet on their policy of making sure it's all legally acquired....
Streaming seems to work well though
The client works fine in linux using wine 1.3.

Gosh...... after uploading 400 songs I realised they all had the same lame album art image because of a stupid JPG in a root folder.... I've now spent the better half of my day off trying to get album art for all my songs @[email protected]". Discovered the hard way it's best to just put all ur music into album folders and update with WMP...

I got one too. And I am from China.

Just to clarify, you guys all used a proxy server to do this, right? I'm going to try this at home tonight. I don't know how to set up a proxy/VPN so if someone can kindly post a link to a very simple instruction it would be great. Otherwise I can do a Google Search I guess. Thanks!
And I'm from Canada. Yesterday the new Music app update shows up on the Android Market. I didn't use market enabler or anything. It just showed up. I updated and this new music app replaced the stock one.

Just requested an invitation via VPN, hope I get it

How long it take to response after the request send? I requested 2 weeks ago, but no response from google yet. i m from Malaysia, i used proxy to request.

I requested about 2 weeks ago using hidemyass and haven't heard anything either, so you're not alone.
According to Paul @ MoDaCo you can speed things up by editing your build.prop so it looks like you're using a 3.0.1 Xoom.

I used the HideMyAss extension to the Chrome browser (probably also available for FF) to request an invite. I'm based in Ireland and got an invite after a couple of weeks after signing up. Started uploading my 5000+ songs yesterday and so far about 650 are done. The upload speed on my internet connection is rather slow.

Hidemyass.com worked for me I think, if that fails and you need software I recommend Hotspot shield.
Here's my blog for initial experience, if you're wanting to make sure your music collection is tidy before committing it to the Cloud, check out http://jamesyb0i.blogspot.com/2011/06/album-where-art-thou.html

Thanks! I also came across hidemyass.com after some Googling but wasn't sure how reliable it is. Since a couple of you have tried it, I think it should be safe

Doesn't really matter how reliable it is, just that it thinks you're in the US

I got the invitation several days ago. I only use proxy to request the invitation. After I agreed the term and conditions, I can access my music account without any proxy.

no I mean, logging in with my username and password through a proxy. Is it possible for the proxy to eavesdrop? But either way, I used it to request an invite

Got my invite today, it's a great service... shame about the upload time mind.

Google+ Instant uplaod

Did anyone noticed that the Instant upload isn't working?
This worked on other android phones (NexusOne & Xperia Arc) but now on GSII it doesn't work. I loved this feature.
Am i the only one?

works for me

It works partially. If i click on "upload existing photos" it does sync. but not right after taking a picture.
First i thought it was because of samsung. but if it works for you then this is very weird. maybe clear data from google+ app

you checked the upload on wifi/charging-only settings?

I double checked all the settings. I'm on wifi right now. it just never worked on my Galaxy :s

I can confirm that it works, for me at least. I've also found a strange side-effect with it. I took some photos at a party last weekend and when I got up in the morning they were on my Galaxy Tab. I can only assume that Google+ downloaded them for some reason.

This is because they are uploaded to Picasa, and in gallery you can see your picasa albums. maybe this is why they showed up. not sure though.
Ok my phone is syncing but it happened after pressing the sync button. it also started uploading movies, i have a movie of 1gb+ -_- so i will wait till everything is finished and try instant uplaod again.

Working fine for me too.

Works fine for me.

Thnx everyone it must be me than. it still doesn't work. i loved the instant uplaod.

Working fine because it uploaded something that i didnt mean to upload !
