Log out from youtube
Use application manager to force stop youtube
Clear cache
Clear data
Start youtube and sign in again
Look for 2k or 4k videos and try to play them. If 1440p is still not avaiable repeat process.

If you tried few times and you sure that videos you tried are avaiable in 2 k or higher resolution then you out of luck because there maybe some region restriction enforced by youtube. Update youtube from play store. Reset it using method mentioned before, turn on wifi and search youtube for 2k videos. This one have 1440 available.

Its related to kitkat not the device

Google updated something server side so only devices running lollipop can play videos at 1440p.
If your rooted and still on 4.4 you can edit the build.prop to 5.0 this will allow you to play the videos at 1440p that is if the videos have been uploaded at 1440p obviously.

What country are you in? I'm in the UK on unlocked 910F Note 4, and I can get 1440p on stock kitkat without doing any magic tricks.

Im not sure about this, my Nexus 7 is in the mail, but I believe you can restore it to factory stock and you can get it back.

When you look at it in the web store, does it have a price under it or play? See image attached how mine is just ready to play.
In the online play store it just says play.

So can you see it in the Movies app?
Just got the tablet and am giving it to the wifey for her bday. Im obviously rooting it so I can play behind her back. Is the move a download, or already on the device? I'm not sure wether I should root, then dirty flash the JR003D build or if I should normally update, then root to keep the movie with the device. If it's a download...? IDK. What should I do?

By default the movie just streams, so you can pick it up again by logging into Play.

scrapbook cannot play YouTube video

YouTube video gets captured as an image instead of a video or video link. Didn't get it to play on scrapbook at all.

You need to revert back to you tube old version if you want that functionality, by going to application info and clicking uninstall updates.

S Note does play/import YouTube video. That could be a work around, depending on how you want to organise your video's.

AHaaaa. . Thanks!!
Does anyone know the version that did work with scrapbook before the update. I have 4.0.23 and I like it cause when in landscape mode I still have the slider at the bottom. When I updated to the new version of YouTube it doesn't have the slider.
Take a sec and hit thanks if I helped or if you're in a good mood!

YouTube very choppy

Anyone else find that while playing YouTube videos it's a bit choppy? I tested multiple videos and they all seem to be very choppy.

No problem here on the open D802 version.
Only with HD enabled. Unfortunately. Alot of other users (german android-hilfe.de forum) also say that its choppy with HD enabled (D802).
Apparently, it was the same on previous LG Android phones.

Issue lies within the LG Software.
Does this happen on wifi too, or just on the celluar network? I have verizon and no issues so far.

Getting choppiness on HD here as well. I'm using the Youtube app. Does anyone know of any good third party Youtube apps?

Go search smarttube the only downside it doesn't bring up you subscription feed. I connected my YouTube account and add it to watch later and then go on smarttube and they have a section for YouTube watch later
The issue that I have is the quality of video isn't very good. Its not bad until you see text on the screen and its kinda pixelated. Smarttube looks better on HD or full HD. Then my YouTube app

Thanks for the recommendation, will check it out.
I can't believe the default Youtube app still has problems up till now. It's a Google app for goodness' sake!

I have also brought thus issue up in the Q&A forum before. The only solutions I have found so far is too uninstall updates of the YouTube app and use the old one instead, or use the mobile web version.

No lag for me on youtube vids at all so far, Bell version of LG G2, that being said i will keep an eye out for any oddities, since my youtube app just updated itself this morning.
No problem here. Have you tried uninstall and reinstall the app?

Does the video you tried to watch support 1440p? Search for "2k demo video" or something and see if 1440p is available when you watch one of those.
I did not do anything special it just played search 4k video test you will find a couple great test videos.

There's a certain process to follow. Look for it in apps and themes. It's posted there.

I got it fixed. All i did was install the app and clear the data and it started working. Nothing extra. Nice jump in quality since i was only able to see videos in 720p before.

Should be by now. It wasn't when the OP was made. I hade it before apk mirror too.
However the OP was to inform people they did not need to do the build prop edit anymore to get the 2k viewing.

New app updated from Google Play worked for me. But it wont work right off the bat. You have to force close app, go to the app settings and clear cache and data. Restarted YouTube and voila! Haven't had 1440p enabled in quite a bit
Anyone Know how to keep video quality at the highest? seems to change between videos. Nothing is settings.
Depends on the resolution the video was uploaded with. Some videos are low resolution, some are high. So you have to check each one. YouTube also streams in a lower resolution to get the video to the viewer quicker. Not everyone has fast enough Internet to stream 4k videos without buffering issues.

Youtube scrolling lag

So my problem is that, when i play a video in the youtube app and i drag down the video into the corner and begin scrolling the list of vidoes, it begins to stutter. Now the video itself plays ok, and it seems to happen on 720p or 1080p resolution. What do you guys think? And btw I'm on stock 5.0.1. No root no nothing.

i tried lollipop, even with custom clean roms, it lags, more than kitkat, my guess is that the firmwares right now arent that good, i am using cm12 right now, and its so smooth, you have to wait for better firmwares...if they exist....
