Youtube App Honeycomb Issues

[scottpw25]

I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 today and the Youtube app reverts to the same video every time!! No matter what I search for or select, it goes to the same video, however, it display's the correct title.

How do I correct this?

Have you tried wiping the cache for the Youtube app?

 

[scottpw25]

yes. Also, there really wasn't any cache to begin with since I just purchased it today. I wiped the cache, force stopped the program, etc..it goes to the same video..

Are you able to uninstall the youtube app or did it come preinstalled as a "system" application? Cause I would have suggested downloading the newest version from the android market.

It is pre-installed onto the device. I spoke with their tech support and they don't know what the problem is. It looks like I will be making an exchange tomorrow at BestBuy.
Even when I am on the android market place looking at a potential app, and lick on the "preview app" link which is a video..it goes to youtube and plays the same stinking video.
A factory reset didn't work either. I am guessing some code in my particular tablet tells youtube to go to this same video..even though it will display the title of the video I am looking for.

Yeah it seems glitched. Only way I see to fix it is to root the device then remove the YouTube.apk from /system/app/ and install the one from the Market.

Or you can exchange it for a new one
