YouTube app touch to retry issue.

---

Ever since I forced updated my nexus s to 2.31 via the update.zip download I notice the Youtube
App at random intervals during video playback stops playback and asks me to touch to retry.Is anyone else having that problem?

Did you flash gapps after you flashed the update? Try booting into recovery and clearing cache and dalvik cache then reflash gapps.

Thanks man that worked didn't think I would have to do that

If you're rooted you can do it several ways:

You can do it from CWM Recovery I believe.

The description for Titanium Backup (PRO version) includes a Dalvik-cache cleanser. Other cache cleaning apps might do the trick as well.

(the following methods might require you to mount as r/w to work, Root Explorer is an easy way to do that...)

You can also do it with a file explorer like Root Explorer or estrongs by just deleting all the files in the /data/dalvik-cache folder.

You can also do it from the command line in the terminal or via adb shell with the following command:

from the the computer terminal -- "adb shell rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/* "

or from a terminal on the phone-- "rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/*"

I'm not rooted so is there another way?

Not that I am aware of unless you're willing to nuke the whole phone with a Factory Reset.

I just checked to make sure, and the Stock Recovery only lets you clear /cache from it's menu, not /data/dalvik-cache, and when I cleared cache and rebooted, the dalvik-cache had not been wiped (I could tell by the boot time and then checked with root explorer.

Factory reset will clear it, but obviously it clears everything else as well and you end up having to set the phone up again.

Try clearing data under manage apps. That usually helps fix problems I have with apps.

I noticed several stop/pause, stutter, start playing on its own again with YouTube on the NS last night. WiFi connection, full bars, 15 feet from an N router. Haven't done much to diagnose it, though.
