YouTube app refuses to work....

jrdatrackstar · 12-20-2009, 07:54 AM

I've seen this issue come up lately in other forums.

I am a new Sprint Hero owner (coming from a Pre and so far not looking back). However, I am a heavy YouTube surfer, and it seems like every other video result on the YouTube app gives me the "Sorry, cannot play this video error". Can anyone help me? I've tried the SD Card reset thing and that doesn't work. Does "jailbreaking it" work to fix this problem? This is the only thing that has left me missing my Pre

I get that problem to, after retrying a few times it ends up working though.

Even when I try that it still doesnt seem to work

Is this an issue with the fact that the browser doesn't play the videos but sends them to a separate video viewer and sometimes it doesn't start up and tried to play in the browser?

No this issue is related to the individual YouTube app

My eris gets the same error every other video as well. I keep insisting and eventually Erie finds a player that works. I'm not happy struggling like that. Our technology should be past those kinds of probs.
