I have a jailbroken 16GB 1.1.4 iPhone. It is unlocked using ZiPhone. When I try to use youtube, I get an error message that says "Cannot Connect To YouTube". I installed YouTube Activatior 1.1.4 which is supposed to fix this problem. I re-booted, and still no dice. Does anyone know any way to fix this problem without restoring? I would really rather not restore but if thats what needs to be done, then I guess I have no choice.

When I try to use youtube, I get an error message that says cannot connect to youtube. I tryed following the steps on http://www.iphonehacks.com/2008/03/y...-fix.html#more but I also cannot connect using winSCP. Any help that you can give me would be greatly appreciated. I would really rather not restore.

Have you tried the fixes on Installer?

[jaghockey]

Yes, I installed YouTube activator for 1.1.4 and no luck. I think I will just have to restore.

Even after restore and jailbreaking again with ZiPhone, still no dice with youtube.

Try this... go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset All Settings, then restart your phone.

That's what worked for me.

I got the same problem using iPlus 2.0b and was able to fix it...

AT&T Users only!! Cannot connect to YouTube ??

It seems like it has to do with the iPlus activation, which is something AT&T users don't need since iTunes will activate it normally.
I restored to the stock 1.1.4, and let iTunes activate my iPhone. Then, I modified the iplus.bat file to remove activation; enable
jailbreak and unlock.

1. Use iTunes to restore your firmware to stock 1.1.4 and let iTunes activate your iPhone.
2. Download iPlus (http://ipluspwns.com/)
3. Replace the following text in the iplus.bat batch file:

if "%1" NEQ "-u" GOTO :NO_UNLOCK
echo JAILBREAK=1;ACTIVATE=1;UNLOCK=1 # > iplus.options
GOTO :PUT_OPTIONS
:NO_UNLOCK
echo JAILBREAK=1;ACTIVATE=1;UNLOCK=0 # > iplus.options
echo UNLOCK=0; >> iplus.options

....
rem ipdo switches: "-j" to jailbreak, "-u" to unlock, "-a" to activate
ipdo -a -j %1
...

with:

if "%1" NEQ "-u" GOTO :NO_UNLOCK
echo JAILBREAK=1;ACTIVATE=0;UNLOCK=1 # > iplus.options
GOTO :PUT_OPTIONS
:NO_UNLOCK
echo JAILBREAK=1;ACTIVATE=0;UNLOCK=0 # > iplus.options
echo UNLOCK=0; >> iplus.options

...
rem ipdo switches: "-j" to jailbreak, "-u" to unlock, "-a" to activate
ipdo -j %1
...

4. Run the batch file. Jailbreak (and unlock) should begin automatically.

Is that .bat file used if you're running the script from the Mac command line? Also, anyone else had this method work for them? Thanks in advance.

No thanks. I did this last week, it didn't work, and I had to re-build all the preferences that this method wipes out. Worse than a waste of time.

[batcage]

No, the iplus.bat file is for Windows. I have only tested this method on Windows Vista.

AT&T Users only!! Sorry, I don't know how to fix YouTube for users in other networks.

For AT&T users on MAC, the script is named "iplus" with no extension.

1. Use iTunes to restore your firmware to stock 1.1.4 and let iTunes activate your iPhone.
2. Download iPlus (http://ipluspwns.com/)
3. Replace the following text in the iplus script file:

echo "JAILBREAK=1" > iplus.options
echo "ACTIVATE=1" >> iplus.options

...
# ipdo switches: "-j" to jailbreak; "-u" to unlock; "-a" to activate
./ipdo -a -j $1
...

with

echo "JAILBREAK=1" > iplus.options
echo "ACTIVATE=0" >> iplus.options

...
# ipdo switches: "-j" to jailbreak; "-u" to unlock; "-a" to activate
./ipdo -j $1
...

4. Run the iplus script file. Jailbreak (and unlock) should begin automatically.



Note: If you want to see what iPlus does when "ACTIVATE" is 1, open payload.zip and look at do_payload.sh. This is an excerpt:

if [ "$|{ACTIVATE}" == "1" ]; then
echo "iPhone fake activation..."
do_cmd "Patching lockdownd..." unzip -o -q -K -X //Lockdownd.zip -d /usr/libexec/
echo "Activating youtube..."
mkdir -p /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown
cp //YouTube/data_ark.plist /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/
cp //YouTube/device_private_key.pem /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/
cp //YouTube/device_public_key.pem /private/var/root/Library/Lockdown/
echo "Activation completed"
fi

Thanks in Advance..

Sorry, I should've made it clearer that my solution is for AT&T users only because they don't need the iPlus activation (iTunes activates your iPhone automatically if you're a legit AT&T customer). The iPlus activation seems to break YouTube for AT&T customers, though others in different networks may have YouTube working. If I were you, I'd try to activate the iPhone with iPlus/Ziphone, and if that doesn't work, do a restore to 1.1.4, then run the original/unmodified iPlus/Ziphone script (with jailbreak, activate, and unlock all enabled).

Then, you might want to try this YouTube fix (I don't know if it works):
