[Q] YouTube: There was a problem while playing - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have uninstalled updates, rebooted phone, and installed from 1Market instead of the Google Play Store but still when I try to play any video on YouTube I receive the error 'There was a problem while playing - Touch to retry'. Retrying just repeats same. I rooted the phone recently and installed Cyanogenmod but the problem was occurring even when using stock. YouTube works fine on my tablet using the same WiFi. I have not yet set up adblock and I am not using any custom VPN or tunneling. I have read on some threads the issue only occurs streaming HQ video but when I attempt to stream, press the three dots menu top right, and then press the cog/gear for settings, the resolution options only go up to 480 and pressing auto does not help, this also resets to 480 when I check it on the next attempt. If relevant the baseband version installed is different than what was on the phone initially, it was the closest I could find for the only rooting method which would work.
Any ideas how to fix YouTube?

Did you flash the latest version of CM 11? They may have fixed the YouTube issue (at least it's fixed on my ROM).
Sent from my GT-I8190 running tenshi_xp's PAC ROM 4.4.4.

I am not sure, I installed Cyanogenmod about two or three weeks ago. I checked for Cyanogenmod updates in settings yesterday and there were none, would that mean I have the latest ROM?

NovaFusion's CyanogenMod 11 ROM is unofficial that mean no OTA updates. Go to novafusion.pl/downloads and download the latest version from there. Then flash it simple via recovery without wipe data.

[Q] Youtube always play same video?

for the last 6 months i m using cm7 usually the latest nightlies. for the last two months i m having issue with youtube app in my cappy. i hv shifted back to stock and now on beta 2[[DEV][BETA 2]ICSSGS Source]. but the problem is still there.
problem is that whatever link i click in youtube, always the same video runs. the video is usually the one that l run first time after new rom installation. i hv tried fix permission in rom manager and cwm recovery. i hv tried clear data / wipe cache / format sd card etc. i hv tried different versions of youtube also.
I have figured that the issue comes after my devices get synched with my google account after i install any new rom.

Google Play does not work

I am running jcsullins cm10.1 experimental Bluetooth ROM, latest jbgapps for job 4.2.2. Google Play does not work anymore. It roles no it install any new app when I click on "install". Also, Google play freezes when I try to get to "settings". I had already reinstalled gapps, cleaned cache, with no help. I would appreciate any clues. Tks.

If you have some apps installed, Take a Nandroid Backup and then wipe data, system, cache, everything.
And then install the ROM and GApps.
I Hope this should help you.

From what rom did you come before updating to the experimental?
I am also having the play store not loading on the same bluetooth experimental rom. Since installing with GooManager last night with no system cleaning. I didnt install any new gapps everything carried over from the previous rom. I think the previous rom was one the first if not the original cm rom for the tp dual booting webOs with moboot. It is also not showing charging but the percent stayed at 86% through multiple reboots and 30 mins of web surfing. I turned it off last night with it plugged in and now it is showing 93%. The wifi icon is grey but I still have internet on the tp.
Just loaded WebOS and it is showing 96% and charging.
I am not complaining and have yet to diagnosis or really trouble shoot. A fresh install might fix my problems and I will probably try it in a day or two. I dont need to save anything.
I think JC's bluetooth rom had a bug in it that caused play store issues. The bug was fixed in a later nightly but I don't think JC ever released a new version. I remember reading about it at rootzwiki - head over there and do a quick search. Maybe there is a fix you can install in recovery.

[Q] anybody else having issues on milaqs cm11 build?

I recently upgraded to milaqs 4.4 rom and have been plagued with issues since then, some of which include:
no camera
sleep of death (seems to only happen when using Google now launcher, may occur with other custom launchers)
random reboots, mostly when in sleep
google sync errors
getting stuck in a reboot
certain apps like youtube stop working properly after some time
time resets to jan 1st 1970 on every reboot
wallpaper and saved wifi networks reset seamingly at random when rebooting
playstore crashes when trying to install apps often
when restoring and redownloading apps, sometimes apps get stuck on "installing" until rebooting
can mount legacy storage but cannot open, transfer or delete items from it
sliver about 2 pixels wide on right side of screen when in landscape unless changing dpi to 155
This is running on the feb 27th nightly build
Is anybody else having similar issues?
Netflix
Hi for me this is a very stable build. the best I've tried so far.
The only Problems I have are:
No Camera ( I don't use it so not a big deal)
I do get the installing apps issue sometimes but hasn't happen in a week.
Netflix was broken. But I found away to get it working. after searching the web found someone who said to download the older 2.4 or 2.4.1 and it will work. I downloaded it. This worked. Now I have a working Netflix app.
It was quite a hassle to find the 2.4.1 version. Don't forget to turn off auto updates for the apps or it will install the lastet Netflix app which doesn't work for kitkat yet.
The kitkat 4.4.2 builds are new and I expect them to be buggy. But I'm really thankful that they are underdevelopment. They are really really good. The Milaq build in particular is great. I'm now using this for my day to day use. I don't really have to many complaints with it. I'm running the latests build Mar 02 nightly build.
sleep of death
Well I had the sleep of death on the Mar 2 build of CM11 Milaq. This is only the second time its happen to me since I installed this build about 3 weeks ago. had to press the power and the home button to re-boot. its works fine now. will keep you posted
webcam doesnt work

for me webcam doesnt work reliably
Tried it and cm10.2 back at Christmas, but some important - to me - things were not working - Bluetooth, camera, ... devs have since worked their magic... jcsullins 5/4 build seems v good - e.g. best Skype stability I have ever had.
Sent from my TouchPad using Tapatalk
Everything H/W is working for me on CM11 from milaq
:good: Everything hardware and application is working quite nicely and stable too!
Where I am having some issues is with ROOT access.
For example trying to create the moboot.default file with any of the valid file managers is not working. I have had to use a recovery file to actually get the file created with the default boot image I wanted.
Besides that it is running quite nicely and stable.
Mind you I have done a clean install from scratch (which is usually recommended) since I was running CM10.1 prior to migrating to CM11.
I believe the issue above is based on some modifications GOOGLE has implemented, but even the available fixes are not working for me to gain access to the SD CARD partitions.
A big thank you to milaq for this great still evolving ROM build.
Running the 20140429 nightly at the time of writing this post.

CyanogenMod 12.1 - Lollipop - Discussion

This is CyanogenMod 12.1 (Lollipop (5.1.1 – LMY49F)) for ASUS’s Transformer Pad (TF701T – Macallan).
This thread is for device specific shakeout and bug fixing.
This is not a production build.
Please always supply a system log (logcat) and a kernel log (kmsg) when reporting an issue.
Please read through the entire blog post:

First one to answer!
At least! CM 12.1 for our beloved TF701!
And yesterday we got TWRP recovery after more than a year thinking that it was impossible.
New life for the best Asus Android Transformer. Thank you, pershoot.
Thanks so much for this. I'm very excited to get my 701 up to date.
I'm working on a clean installation (12.1-20150601)
Got to the screen where I select the apps to reinstall from a previous installation. After selecting the apps to reinstall the CANCEL/DONE buttons were difficult to select. It seemed to "take" after tapping around the "Done" button a bunch of times.
I have the new TWRP installed (in case that makes any difference).

I noticed the same behaviour on one of my older BlissPop builds. It went away on my newest build. Something to keep track of now that I'm not the only person that was experiencing it.

this is only shown in Play? Try dynamic dpi gapps build from banks (check droidbasement link) and see if that sorts it out.

I believe that is the file I'm running. I loaded:
BaNkS-dynamic-gapps-L-5-27-15.zip
Except for that one minor problem during initial startup & configuration (which only occurred on that one screen). You're load has been working great.
THANKS !!!!!
Been running for two days as a dirty flash update from your cm12.0. Simply works except for occasional slowdowns opening apps and with the apps drawer. This is also true on cm12.1 for my d2att do I don't know if it is a trebuchet issue or not. Either way excellent work as ever.

Please snap a log the next time it happens. Thanks.
Calendar App trouble connecting to google account
When I tried to open the calendar, it asked me to log in to connect to my calendar.
When I put in the same google account I'd set-up the device with it said that the account already exists on the device.
Checking the account, the Calendar was not visible as a service that was syncing.
The calendar was blank, and trying to add a new event reported that I need to add an account first.
I went to the play store and downloaded the google calendar app. That opened fine and connected to my existing calendar. Returning to the Cyanogen calendar then connected and showed my events.
I'm getting a force close on the new Google Photos app. The app seems to be working fine on my other devices running CM12.1. (pershoot I'll send you a log shortly)
Also, every time I open the Play Store it seems like I have 15-20 apps that need to be updated. It feels like my updates are not sticking through a reboot, and I have to re-update some apps after a boot. Is anyone else seeing similar issues?
Try updating gapps (linked on DB) and update your 12.1 build (06/18).
Hmm, this is odd. The latest banks Gapps (6/17) got rid of the Play Store.
edit: Tried reinstalling the PA Gapps for 5.1, still don't have my Play Store back.
no issues with Play here and no issues with Google Photos as well.
on 6/18 12.1 (DB) and 6/17 Banks.

Bad Dirty Flash of 6/20 & GApps 6-21-15
Hmmm,
Just dirty-flashed your 6/20 and BaNkS-dynamic-gapps-L-6-21-15. Am looking at a mostly blank home screen. The notification pull downs are there, and the 3 navigation buttons on the bottom, and nothing else. And, now a message "Couldn't add widget". I've tried to redownload and flash, but no change.
Suppose next step is either an earlier gapps, or reflash with full reset.

Thanks for checking
I tried flashing over with these versions, but it didn't come back.
Ended up doing a full wipe and loaded these versions (still running TWRP).
Not sure what happened, but it's working fine now (maybe a TWRP problem).
Thanks.
Better than CM12
I would like to just give an update to how smooth lollipop 511 is running! I'm voice typing this and I did a full wipe from CM 12 then install CM 12.1 and selection of the options to restore from Google all of my apps and after about a half an hour all is just funky great! I have CWM 6. 0. 5. 1 installed. It seems a bit zippier but miracast or screen mirroring still does not function. Great job Pershoot!!!!!
Oh, one thing that it did not do was the stock browser did not sync my bookmarks.

Apps keep crashing

I installed Android 4.4.4 on my touchpad today. Everything went well. But the main problem is that Youtube, Chrome and Opera keep crashing. In Youtube when i tap to load a video the app freezes and then crashes. Is there a fix, is the android old and shoud i upgrade to a newer version. The apps are downloaded from Google Play store
Which version of 4.4.4 did you install?
I have two here that I just pulled out to check for you, and then was faced with the forced update of YT.
(thanks google...)
Took and hour but finally got through that BS but they are both working.
The version installed that was shown on play store was from Oct, 2019
Version 14.43.55 is what it has been updated to on both.
LineageOS 11-20180827-UNOFFICAL.
and JCS's CM11 on the other from waaay back in '15 or '16.

The ROM that i downloaded was called lineage-11-20201201-NIGHTLY-MLQ-tenderloin
the GAPPS is gapps-base-arm-4.4.4-20170902-1-signed
and the TWRP is update-TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140612b
And I think that there is maybe a video playbach issue, because even in the stock browser in desktop mode the video starts, but then crashes the browser.
Also in Chrome when i search for something it loads, but the page is blank and when i try to swipe Chrome crashes. Tryed Opera - same outcome

Well that's odd. usually Milaq's ROMs are GTG.
All your versions of GApps and TWRP are what I'm running.
Something is whacked since you can't bring it up in Chrome or Opera.
Perhaps try JCS's? That's what I've got on my 'Main' go-to TP.
Just tried YT on Opera and it functioned.

The only thing i didnt do is to wipe the tablet. And before the install it said it needed to fix something, and then it mounted the media device. Shoud i wipe the whole thing and do a clean install with the same files or use different ones ?

Most assuredly. I always 'nuke' mine whenever I put a ROM on.
Do you by chance have the ol' WebOS still on it?

ah, I'd Nuke (wipe) it all.
I got rid of WebOS on my (5) TPs years ago.
In this section in the stickies above there are several excellent posts by @RolandDeschain79
Follow those, wipe the tablet.
