Can't start YouTube -- and what's the deal with Titanium Backup (rooted nook color)

[israelkamaka]

I recently rooted my NC with autonooter 3.0. The process was simple, and I had a nice rooted nook in no time. Being a noobie, I figured all was well until a couple of days later when tried to view some YouTube videos. I was prompted for my youtube username and password, so I tried to log in and it kept saying that my password/username was invalid. Now I can't seem to go beyond that.

Okay...so then I read the forums where a few people suggested that I remove YouTube with Titanium backup. I bought the pro version, but it doesn't want to go past the overview screen.

<sigh>

Any suggestions?

If I can piggyback on this question. I too used Auto-nooter 3.0. Every is working well-except Youtube. When I click on the youtube icon, it runs for one second and then returns to the extras page. Any suggestions?

Did you guys set up your google and youtube account before you rooted as specified in the instructions?

I did set up both accounts first (a while ago actually) and I'm having the exact same problem. Youtube opens for a second then goes back to Extras. Reboot didn't resolve. I WAS able to successfully remove Youtube using Nook Color Tools>All Settings>Manage Applications. Now, how do I reinstall it? I incorrectly assumed it would be on the Marketplace but you know what they say about assume.

Per Posts #13 and #38 in this link:
Color youtube not working anymore - MobileRead Forums

Use "ES File Explorer" to select the YouTube app and "clear data". This resolved the issue for me a while back. I believe I had to agree to the terms again on the first restart of YouTube and I am not sure that the YouTube app is still linked to my YouTube account anymore, but I don't use that feature anyway.

There is a YouTube apk in the 3rd post. I had to install this apk from the Evo in order to get YT to work. Now it works flawlessly every time on my Nook.

I'll second that. I installed the .apk file and it works perfectly.
