GoKawiilYouTube reopens Server Error 400 bug report after premature fix claim
YouTube said over the weekend that it had fixed the 'Server Error 400' bug affecting Android users, but has since reversed that claim. Google confirmed in an updated support thread that some Android users are still hitting the error when opening the app or loading videos, and gave no new timeline for a fix.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
A reopened bug report after a public all-clear suggests Google's initial fix did not address the root cause, which could frustrate users who returned to the app expecting normal service. It also raises questions about how Google verifies fixes before announcing them, since this is the second time within days it has had to revise its status update.
- YouTube's November 1 claim that the Android 'Server Error 400' bug was fixed has been retracted.
- Google says engineering teams are still working on a fix with no stated timeline.
- Affected Android users may continue to see the error when trying to load the app or videos.
