Answer 1

Just use normal a webview and everything will be fine.

Try this: (Tested and works)

new Thread(new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        final WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
        myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
        myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        myWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());

        try {
            Log.e("Status", "tried url");
            myWebView.loadUrl("http://youtube.com/xxxxxxxxx");  

            handler.post(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    Log.e("Status", "In Run():");
                }
            });

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            Log.e("Status", "exception");
        }       
    }       
}).start();
