Phonegap Does httpRequest correctly in browser but not in phone

I have the next code:

var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();

xhttp.open("GET", "http://www.youtube.com");

xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {

       document.getElementById('master').innerHTML = xhttp.responseText;

    }
};

xhttp.send();

I try the same with google and Facebook and it worked fine in browser and phone but youtube only works in Browser ¿What happened?

pd: browser = desktop browser

pd: pd: It enter in the if and does the innerHTML but in the phone the responseText doesn't return anything

It's probably because of the User Agent as http://www.youtube.com redirects to http://m.youtube.com the loading of the www is probably canceled and just return the empty response.

I've added this preference on my config.xml to use this desktop user agent and I get a response now.

<preference name="OverrideUserAgent" value="Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.103 Safari/537.36" />
