Hey guys,

Since i bought my galaxy s i9000 i have not been able to view youtube videos. I would go to the youtube website and i would see the thumbnail of the clip that i would like to play, but as soon as i click it, i get this message that tells me that the website is not available or has been moved permanently.

This is especially weird because it is only unique to youtube. I can stream videos that are posted on facebook and that are availbale on the howcast app.

What do you think could be the problem and how do i remedy this?

Thanks in advance.

Well seeing this post tells me you may not have a sync account.

Can you got Settings - > Accounts and Sync

Tell me what you see under manage Accounts?

Maybe Saudi Providers have blocked this feature.

Peace.

Hey Ironsingh,

Thanks for the reply. When i go into the accounts and sync page  i see this:

Background data

Auto-sync

Manage accounts:

Under manage accounts, the phone is synced to my facebook and gmail accounts.

Make any sense?

Hmm, it seems that you have the Locked version.

I think the best way to get Market and all the missing features for you is Flash your Firmware.

Since you are in Saudi I would assume you will want the Arabic version.

Please follow this link and get the Latest Official Firmware (for Arabic I recommend I9000JPJPG).

Please understand that Flashing your phone carries risk of bricking your phone. However small the risk maybe I am still obliged to warn you of the consequences. You will have to do it at your own risk.

You may also want to back up before you continue.

Peace.
