Well, I decided to start a new topic because I couldn't find any quick, fast and easy information, or way to fix YouTube on Cyanogenmod (version 10, I don't know what about 10.1).
What the issue was about: YouTube app installed from Google Play Store won't load movies. It starts, shows miniatures, when you tap it, it pretends to start loading (rotating loading symbol) and then it show information that app has to be shut cause it stopped working, it was even worse with "weakly" performing flash (no matter if I use android browser, nor firefox beta).
After a quick research I found Dark Elf thread with a solution, and link to an apk file. It helped, but - every time I tried to change volume, a pop-up've showed up saying that YouTube app stopped working, even though it wasn't running foreground. Pretty annoying.

I did deeper research this time, and tried several found solutions. I found this thread http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1529715 , but the newest version didn't work either, I dig deeper and found perfectly working apk! It could be found here - http://d-h.st/users/...d_id=5366#files - YT_4.1.47_v1.apk
Direct link - YT_4.1.47_v1.apk - 6.06 MB
What you have to do is uninstall YouTube app you've already installed, restart, install YT_4.1.47_v1 (I recommend another restart), and that's it.
It looks good, works great.

UPDATE - in most cases you'll need special app to uninstall stock baked YouTube app, like SD maid, or Root Uninstaller (easily found on play store).

I hope this helps anyone.

All thanks to theos0o from xda developers.

Thanks for finding this youtube working versions... BTW, Nice UI on this one! But still have some problems... Every videos start in HQ or HD and it is stopping every 1-2 seconds, if i click on the Small HQ or HD button to see it in Low quality, that now working good. It look like it start playing the videos without a full buffer. Wi-fi speed it's good i'M having 18mbps.

This is an issue even on stock rooted roms. It has to do with the recent youtube update. I have uninstalled it, the stock youtube app still works.

youtube works on saturday's cm10 build, the last 4.1 build. I've fixed it

I had to use root uninstaller to remove the stock youtube app, and had to install the above as a system app otherwise it wouldn't install properly.

Did you mod the actual youtube apk or did you have to change something in the firmware to get it working?

[Christian Troy]

It's an android modification, log the error and you'll see what you have to edit, but you have the extra smali step because you're not building from sources

Is someone actively working on the Netflix issue? If not, I'll just delete the app -- I'm still in the "Free Trial," and don't want to start getting charged if this likely isn't going to work any time soon (or ever).

Just to be clear, this is not a whine, it's just a query for info. My hat is ever off to the developers who pour time into this stuff.
