[1) It depends on the people, really. When I’m with young, )(black) friends I’ll probably say: “Yo” or something like that. If I’m at a diplomatic function, I’ll say something more like: “Ehem” or “Well…” to draw attention before I start speaking.

England, Holland, China.

In a business or formal occasion, I’ll likely say “all of you” but in everyday life, I’m more likely to say “you guys” or “y’all” and if I’m in a goofy mood, it’ll be “youse guys”

the answers are:
1) What do you say when you want to say you to a bunch of people? (you guys, y’all, youse etc…)
If a simple “you” is insufficient, I think I would say “you guys” or “y’all.” If one of those is not available or seems inappropriate, I’d change the construction of what I’m trying to say (e.g. “What does everyone want to do?” if I don’t feel comfortable with “What do you guys” or “What do y’all want to do”).
2) What is your native language?
English.
3) If your native language is English, where are you originally from?
