I tried Kenny's file to obtain gapps (from the wiki) and I couldn't find how to login to YouTube.

You don't find YouTube (or Gmail) in the Sync and Accounts list - only google. When I tried to login with my Gmail/YouTube username and password, it didn't work.

I finally uninstalled and deleted all the files and used the approach from emusan with Titanium Backup. That worked as far as gmail. However, I still couldn't login to YouTube.

Then, I thought of using the menu key while in YouTube. That is where you can enter login in.

So, if any other noobies don't know that, it might enable them to use the YouTube "bypass" successfully with Kenny's files.
