Cannot view YouTube videos in the app - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
For around 3 days I have been coming across an error message "lost connection to server, touch to retry" whenever I want to watch a video on my nexus 7 (WiFi) or for that matter of fact my xperia sola too via the YouTube app. I wonder if I have messed up with some of the settings on my tab and phone too or there is some config issue in my wireless settings of the router. I didn't have this kind of trouble until very recently. I am not too familiar with wireless and networking. Would be great if someone could shed some light. Thanks.

WiFi going in and out while streaming video.

So whenever I watch a streaming video whether it is using Google play, Netflix, or YouTube app the internet just seems to go in an out. I have downloaded WiFi analyzer and speed test.net apps. Both are showing I have should have no issues streaming videos. Its really frustrating. Is this a known issue or should I get an RMA??

This problem is likely to be either your router or your ISP. Have you tried testing streaming on a different network?
I don't have access to a different network. The kindle fire I sold to get the nexus 7 had no issues streaming video. Hence why I am concerned with my nexus 7.
U also have access to an iPad that has no issues either.

The problem is the router for sure,use the WiFi analyzer app to find the strongest channel then set your router to that channel,see if this helps and if not send me a message and we will try something else.I had the exact problems so I will take you through each of my steps I did until fixed.

Share files

Hi,
Does anyone know a good application for sharing files between nexus 4 and nexus 10, without using cloud services? Some app that use wifi direct or similar

I am looking for one..NFC is also another option but still haven't tried.
ES File Explorer has built-in ftp support which works very nicely when the devices are on the same wifi network.

I had a similar question before as I was very much used to using WiFi direct between my earlier Samsung devices. Found the answer in 'fast file transfer', it's amazing, uses the same principles as WiFi direct. I suggest you try it, you wouldn't be disappointed. Search for it on the play store.
Hit thanks if this helped

[Q] Use N7 as a WiFi adapter ?

So I just moved in to a new place and so far I can't find my WiFi adapter for my PC computer.
To make things more of a pain, the router is to far for a cord..
So the question is, how can I use my Nexus 7 as a WiFi adopter for my computer? Can it even be done?

YouTube app help needed

The stock YouTube app just upgraded and whenever I watch a video I get a white square in middle of my N4 screen. Cant figure out how to remove it, probably something simple.
Anyone know how?

Same problem here. Have you found solution?
Clearing cache and app data won't help.
This works kind of. But as soon as I turn the phone to rotate screen it comes back up

Do u have chromecast or TV that is connecting to WiFi? When that icons appears that means its streaming on the TV.

I know this is offtopic, but aside from the Connect TV feature, I've completely switched to Viral now.
