Hi, first off, new to Android, just recently figured out how to root and reflash, currently using Liberated FR007.

On the YouTube app, I am signed in with my YouTube account, which has my correct age when I view my profile on my desktop. However, whenever I want to watch certain videos, it says "Sorry, you must be 18 or over to view this video." How do I get around this? I can clearly watch the same video on my desktop, but not on my phone, albeit I am logged on the same account.

first of all(eww..., im a minor) go and look around a bit on your account and see if you have checked 18 plus. if you have, then go on your phone's youtube and play around in settings. I cant tell you if it is there because im a minor...
