"Cannot Connect to YouTube"

I don't think you tube will work on Edge, it's too slow.

Have no idea why it works thru Safari on Edge.

Likely the You Tube app has it restricted

Less than 10 seconds on Google .....

well i have a unlocked iphone n my you tube dont work on 3g, was working then one day stopped, works fine on wifi, dont know if its down to being unlocked n running on uk vodafone?

 

Same here...thing is when i was on 2.2.1 youtube worked fine over edge.

Then i upgraded to 3.0 and youtube stopped working however i just ignored it thinking it would be adressed in a future F/W upgrade

last week i upgraded to 3.1.2 and STILL youtube doesnt work
(works over wifi)

f/w 2.2.1 rocks...i would go back but a lot off my apps are dependant on my upgrade

 

That's strange. It should connect using the edge network. I just tried on my 3G with 3.1.2 firmware and it worked for me. Have you tried MxTube from Cydia? It's almost the same thing and you can save the videos to your phone. I know that doesn't fix your problem but it may be an alternative for now.

 

i thought the youtube app is restricted?

what if you download 3g unrestrictor from cydia? you have to pay though.

 

With 3.0 you had to do some funny tricks to get a hacktivated phone to run Youtube. It seems like the 3.1+ version of Pwnage tool takes care of this automatically -- sadly, I put 3.1 on my phone like the day before the 3.1.2 update for Pwnage came out, and I still haven't gotten around to doing 3.1.2, but with 3.1, Youtube worked without having to do anything funny.

Anyway also there was another thread today where it seemed that putting the Youtube app in a category caused strange behavior, but it seemed like the opposite of what you guys are describing.

 

Same Here

I work with a guy that sits right next to me in the office and he has one of the original IPhones. We are both using the Edge network. Neither myself or another guy in the office can connect to YouTube. (Both with Iphone 3GS).

Anybody got any ideas???

 

FWIW, the issue seems to be automatically corrected without needing any additional hacks with the pwnage tool 3.1+ firmwares...

 

My Youtube app wont open at all.

 

Download mxtube from cydia it's YouTube but better

Cannot connect to Youtube

On my iPhone 2G with 3.1.2 (jailbroken), Youtube does NOT work over WiFi, and I don't have a SIM card. It just says "Cannot connect to Youtube". The fixes online all told me to add a repository, but the URLs were either bad or Cydia froze when I did it.
