Hey guys, Alright i'm totally lost with all this.

I just got my Iphone a week or so ago and haven't really done anything myself. It's already unlocked. I'm totally starting fresh and i don't have a clue on what to do
what's ssh and what's Winscp?
just totally lost and would love to know where to start. how toconnect the two things, and when and where to put the code and do the backup. I can pick up some of the pieces of things to do here on the forum, but don't have a clue what the ssh and the winscp and how to start off.
This would really help a lot as i can only use GPRS and youtube was a pretty big reason i liked the iphone.

thanks for helping in advance.

@ BarcaMagic

if you have a backup of your YouTube.app folder (As suggested in the instructions) ... then there is no ****n problem... just restore your back up & all will be fine.

[BarcaMagic]

i dont ... what are my options .. how can i get youtube back on ??? thnaks

[jajukhan]

Did you make "YouTube.BACKUP" as suggested ?

If yes... then

1. Delete the YouTube.app folder
2. rename the YouTube.Backup folder back to YouTube.app
3. Restart your phone

you'll be back in action

If you didnt read the instructions carefully & did NOT make a backup. Then,

1. Download this file RapidShare: Easy Filehosting
2. Delete YouTube.app folder from iPhone
3. Extract and copy the YouTube.app folder to your Applications folder on your iphone.
4. Restart

Your YouTube should now be working


Hit thanks if it helped ...

[jajukhan]

nope... dont have to... you can use the icon that it has

[BarcaMagic]

i really apreciate all the help .. everytime i do this i lose youtube icon on home screen ..i dont know what im doing wrong,,,

[jajukhan]

are you sure you are copying the "icon.png" file from the YouTube.BACKUP folder to the new YouTube.app folder.

If you are performing this step then try omiting this step. You will get a different icon but YouTube should still work.

Hi, thanks for this fixed, worked brilliantly when I applied the file permissions mentioned earlier.

My method:

1: Used Filezilla to copy files into appropriate folder (after renaming youtube.app to youtube.backup) - couldn't get a command line program to work so you can use this if you're thick like me and need a graphical interface.

2: Use filezilla to over write the icon.png file with a new one.

3: Reset the file permissions as per jajukhan's post earlier (set permissions on YouTube.app folder to: 0775 set permission on YouTube (this file is inside the folder) to: 0755)

4: Reboot your iPhone.

Hope this helps.

[BarcaMagic]

where can i find filezilla ????

[tekk_g00k]

none of these fixes fixed my youtube problem...


funny thing is, i unlocked/jailbroke my using ipwn (need a mac) and i downloaded the youtube fix from bigboss and youtube is working fine as of right now.

I will update everyone here later on because i read some people's youtube didnt work after the bigboss fix.
