YouTube does not login says Connection Error - There was a connection error trying to login.
I thought it would be nice to automatically upload the videos to YouTube but going to settings and data services then choosing YouTube it insists there is a connection problem but I surf just fine and am always connected to 3g. anyone knows what is the problem? Thanks.
yeah same problem on mine hd2 when i'm trying to upload video directly from albums i get the same message, looking for answer for whole day - still nothing...any ideas guys?
I had the same problem when trying to log into the facebook data sync feature when I first got the phone. Basically I think your problem is that your youtube password has symbols in it, because my old facebook password had symbols in it when I tried to log in it would say "connection error" but then if I tried to log in with an incorrect password it said "incorrect password" so I changed my facebook password so it was just letters and numbers and it worked on the first time I tried,
hope this helped you,
Alex

Nope that is not the problem, I changed my password to 8 chars digits only still doesn't work at all. I gotta say this is my 4th and probably last HTC device. There are always irritating bugs in HTC software in most basic features. Damn it, the YouTube login is an internal feature of HTC software and even that doesn't work, these guys are really something. What's the use in having features if I cannot use them like the youtube, which woule have been nice uploading videos directly to YouTube.

Calm down mate. It works perfectly for me and everyone else most of the time. Occassionaly, there will be an issue with the YouTube servers that stops the app functioning fully. It's nothing to do with the app or HTC, so get onto YouTube and complain to them, because that's where the problem is. Otherwise, it wouldn't be intermittent. It just wouldn't work, or it would.
mine has never worked

There are similar complains about the YouTube account access not working in many other forums, mostly from users who have switched to 1.66 ROMs. As a matter of fact, it does not work for me either through the settings tab/data services.
On the other hand, I can easily log into my YouTube account through Opera...
can you upload through opera?

if you log into your tmobile account page you can turn content filtering off , then un tick use a proxy server under connection on you phone and it will work a treat

i dont have t-mobile and when i started my HD2 for the first time i also got that error.. after rom upgrade to 1.66 the same.. my password is only letters and 1 number so that cant be the problem.
johncmolyneux please get your facts right.
It is NOT a problem with youtube and it didn't work for the past 3 days. So I doubt it's a problem with their servers don't you think?
Also see what others are saying like Tomo1340 which says it never worked for him also. tictac0566 says the same thing and also jamieeeee. So I am not hallucinating and this is not a very specific problem.
It's just another bug by HTC. I can't believe these guys, when they release a new ROM they fixed some issues and then create others. Amazing, how such an apparent bug missed their eyes. In which from their very own app trying to login to YouTube doesn't work.
It would have been very nice to able to capture a video and instantely upload it to the YouTube through the camcorder app, wouldn't it?
May I also say that I have two HD2, one for me and one for my wife. I have tested it after hard reset with no app installed at all and it still doesn't work! Amazing.. By the way, I am not using T-Mobile and my password is just 8 digits.

Fine. Good luck with your anti-HTC campaign. I DID get my facts right and you simply didn't like it.
Think I'll go and upload some vids to YouTube now. Bye
there is a problem though, I hadn't managed to upload a single file or even connect on any of the roms I have used. my password is 12 characters with no symbols. is one supposed to login with a google email address that's linked to YouTube or a user name?
The Youtube function in Sense just doesn't work at all. You'd better simply use the browser.
john says his works. you can email the files through but I don't know how well it works.
Like I said, it's fine for me. It may be a provider issue, but it's definitely not HTC software at fault here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqVH9sOyh7g
doesn't work over WiFi for me.
It does not work with me either. Whenever I try to upload to youtube it says there is some connection error. Using opera to login to youtube works like a charm.
My password is very long (more than 20 characters) and I think that this could be the problem. But I do not want to change my password, because it's the same password as for gmail and I have set this account on multiple computers and on the HD2.
The way around is to use email - YouTube -> My Account -> Account Settings -> Mobile Setup. There you can find a unique email address to which you can send the video. Just add that email address as a contact and send the video to it when you want to upload to youtube. Works perfectly...
works fine for me on everyrom I've tried..
I suspect it's an isp blocking thing, maybe a proxy interfering.
All of a sudden I got "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]" every time I want to see my live feed and my own profile from my Nexus One phone (stock Facebook app). I have no problem accessing it from the browser or PC.
Strange thing though, when i log out, then re-login using OTHER facebook account, I can see the live feed and the profile page no problem. Everything works fine again.
However, once i login using MY account, problem starts again.
I have hard reset my N1, problem still there.
Any idea? Please help.
I like the stock Facebook app on N1, don't really want to install another app or use browser to access it.
Oh and my N1 is stock, no root yet.
Thank you
Calm down and take a deep breath I have the same problem. It is not your phone it is facebook server. I had the problem yesterday shortly and today in the morning. Now it seems ok for me...wait until they repair the problem and use the browser application in the meantime...
i had the same issue also, mine seems to be working now though.
so server related not my phone?
phew...
mine still isn't working though
still not working? dang, just give it some time, mine was out a good 6-7 hours
I've had this issue on the Desire ROM where the live feed on the Friend Stream just refuses to update... I was "locked out" for a few days.
strange, it wasn't working for a while until u put the facebook widget on my home. click on the facebook icon, then ta-da! all working again.
Not sure if it was a coincidence...
It's a problem with some 3rd party apps that push data to your facebook feed and the client's interpretation of the XML. Zynga apps being one of them.
You can experiment by hiding various 3rd party apps form your facebook feed (or logging in when you get the error on a computer and seeing what apps were there and not on your phone).
Once they're hidden (or, over time as they pass further down the history list) your feed will work fine.
i don't play games on facebook, nor have i allow any games to be on my profile.
strange, but it works ok now.
Not just games this can be form ANY third party app that has an illegal character in it....this includes quizes, "who visited your profile", horoscopes, any of those things, anything that is not a pure-facebook update.
Same problem here on htc desire S. On wifi all is ok. On 3g ''An error had occurred while fetching data (null.)'' This is very strange.
Hey guys
After a long while, I wanted to upload a video again from my HTC HD2.
So I recorded the video, and decided to upload it to YouTube, when I did go to my Album, and then 'Share' and then 'YouTube' and then clicking on the video, and then clicking 'Next', then my I get an error.
HTCAlbum.exe crashes.
I already tried to hardreset, and reïnstalling my ROM, but the problem still appears.
Later I saw that in Data Services in the settings of HD2, that the YouTube service is not slided on, when I logged in, it was still not going on.
Does anyone know how to fix this? or does anyone have this problem too?
Since a few days I also have the problem that my camera won't start randomly, it tells me 'Could not initialize camera' or something like that.
I dont know if this problem is in connection with the problem that I just explained above, but maybe someone knows a solution for this too.
Thanks in advance!
Greetz,
Joshoon
Anyone a clue?
I also have the same problem

So... this could be the same problems as there was with the Twittertab?
YouTube changed something in their servers, and now we can't login anymore?
The twitter thingy has been solved, but not YOuTUBe

Yea I knew that, it was very annoying when Twitter didnt work.
Now I dont use YouTube uploading too much, but I use it sometimes, and it is a feature of the phone, so I want it working
I think it has something to do with your account login settings but how to change those I am not sure! I know mine are wrong because I signd in with the wrong account and it kept saying temporarily unavailable when i tried to upload so i went to upload it from my pc and i realized my error. i am now trying to find out how to change the login settings to my real account info but i may just have to hard reset which sucks because i have so many tweaks so if anyone knows how to change the youtube account login info on the hd2 please let me know [email protected]

I think it is not my account, because it just worked fine before.
But I don't use my HD2 that much anymore, so I don't care about this problem anymore
its something with the uploader or the service.
I am using stock sprint rom 6.5 on my Touch Pro 2. clean install uploader works flawlessly. after so many uploads or so many days it stops working.
it uploads 100% then says failed service temporarily unavailable. FOREVER.
if I hard reset the phone it works again for a short time then stops again forever.
so "something" is "changing" that is "undone" when you hard reset.
suggestions? I REALLY REALLY like being able to click and upload using the web browser is enough of a pain in the ass that I would simply not do it any more.
Hey guys,
I have a google account linked to my phone as well as an email account. its been that was fine since i got the phone. Now i am trying to add a second google account, to get the emails and it keeps saying that i have no data connection and to try wifi. so that what i do and it still doesnt work. ive tried like 15-20 times at different places and on different wifi networks and it wont sync. You fellas got any ideas on how I can fix it? oh i am rooted with clockwork installed but no actually roms or anything installed.
Thanks
Sal
This is going to sound crazy but it should work. Add your second account through the youTube app. Load up the YouTube app and hit the menu button, then try to log in with the Google account you want to add to your phone. It should now show up in accounts & sync.
WTF?? lol i was so skeptical when i read your idea i dont even have a youtube account with that email so i thought no way it was gonna work. but i tried it and it worked perfectly haha. Thanks a lot martian21.

Glad it worked! I thought the same thing as you but tried it anyway since nothing else worked. Hopefully the more people who have success with this, it will become more well know. Please share your success with others.
Thank you, was getting frustrated. This worked!
Hello,
Just got the S4 yesterday and theres a few things I cant get working/understand!
Firstly, when streaming video, from sources such as youtube or ted, it doesnt stream in full HD, it almost looks like standard definition. (this is streaming via wifi, not mobile data, i have also checked to make sure it is actually trying to stream HD)
Secondly is the email app, it is only showing me old emails from years ago? It only seems to have an "older" folder and isnt showing any new mail at all.
Could anyone help me out?
Thanks

Have no idea what causes these gltiches for you, do you have the latest firmware installed and updated your apps in Google Play?
I`am streaming Youtube video`s on wifi in in full HD (1080p), have you checked the highest quality in the Youtube setttings

Yea i installed the latest youtube, also tried just streaming it from the web browser but made no difference. At first I had compared the steam to my old phone, and my old phone looked much much better, which was very confusing given the s4's display reputation. But ive put some hd videos on the phone manually and the picture is amazing. Its just streaming services which are poor.
I have also updated the handset, there was a 600mb update as soon as i turned it on.
The email is really bizarre, and very annoying. I know I could get a third party email client from the play store, but theres enough apps/bloatware already on the phone so i'd like to use the in built email app!

Stock email works fine. Just change the setting of sync emails for 3 days only. Then wait for some time (Give it time to sync.) It will sync emails.
BTW you mean email for exchange or something? not gmail?

Yes, indeed the syncing of gmail mails was a pain at first on my S4. But there is an app in the google play store called "push notification fixer" That allows your emails to be pushed to your phone in an orderly manner on delivery. Hope this fixes your issue with the email syncing
