You've re-opened every youtube thread with the same thought. Nice. Update your os and enjoy the crappie youtube video player.

I believe this only happens when the video file is too big for the phone to handle so it restarts the phone. I had this problem before but I wouldn't want to go onto youtube with my bb just because its more of a business phone..

I did some searching myself and came across what worked for me. Go to options/advanced options then click on TCP/IP leave APN settings enabled checked, and fill out the next field as follows: APN:wap.voicestream.com, leave APN Authentication unchecked and user name and password clear. Make sure you save it. This worked for me. I am able to view youtube videos with out my phone shutting off on me. Let me know if it works for you.! Blessed_Wes
Go
