Music videos not on youtube app? - Nexus One General

My girlfriend was trying to watch a Lady Gaga video on my N1 but it did not show up in the search results of Youtube. Then I tried to search another music video and had the same issue. We got on the laptop and noticed that the videos we were searching on the phone are actually on Vevo. Is there anyway to watch music videos from vevo?

Short answer: For you, no.
Long answer: If you flash the Desire ROM (click my sig) and change the UAString to desktop, yes. I just tested it on the following video and it worked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrO4YZeyl0I. But it's probably way way more trouble than it's worth for you.

Paul,
I'm guessing it worked because the Desire ROM has Flash implemented?

Whether ANY video appears on mobile devices is up to the person who uploads the video. There is a setting to specifically allow mobile devices to see the video that has to be set.
Most video companies do NOT check that option to purposely block mobile devices.
A fantastic work around is the App TubeDroid. It lets you search and download ANY Youtube video to your phone, whether it is enabled for mobile or not

It seems like rooting is a headache if you don't have the patience. I think i rather just for the official release of flash on the Nexus 1. And besides I don't want to void my warranty.

Anyway, yeah i've noticed this too.
Will we be able to get vevo up and running when flash is out officially?

Yes, once Flash is released (god I hope it's soon!) then Vevo should work fine

TubeDroid is the sh!t! There are free methods to do the same, but none of them are as alsick, IMHO, and well worth the $3. (Even Dolphin sucks compared to it, and I don't like Dolphin Browser). I think the best part is, you can DL it in different quality levels, the best is for HD on a PC, the next level is for the full use of the N1, and so forth.

Craigslist App

Someone should create a Craigslist application unless a free one already exists I don't know about? Lol.
and also a kijiji app
I think windows mobile is the only OS that doesn't have it. My friends have it on their Droids and iPhones.
I have been recently wondering. If an app has been created for droid and Iphones. how hard is it to make the exact same or similar app for us WM users?

It has to be built from the ground up for WM...android and iphones are based on the same core technology in terms of the OS, but WM is a completely different beast. That's why you'll usually see the android and iphone versions of a software title appear at almost the exact same time, and then rarely if ever a matching WM release

I'll write a much more touch-friendly CL app when I get a chance in a few weeks.

why do you need an app?
Seems like cl works just fine using the browser. I also have used the browser for google voice, gmail, etc... they all work fine (of course you have to do some zooming at times to select links).
The one thing I haven't found yet is a very good web based im client. I've played with ebuddy but am not sure if it's very good yet.

Any RSS reader can read Craigslist. Some RSS readers have alarms for keywords as well.

For the same reason that dedicated apps exist for Facebook and anything else-- a native app can offer a much easier and faster on-the-go experience. Craigslist is a pretty simple site, but it still requires lots of panning and zooming to use on a phone. A solid mobile client would take care of that.

Just wondered if you had the time to write a more "touch-friendly CL app" yet?
I would love to try it.
You could just save your local CL as a bookmark and attach it as a quicklink.
It helps if you add as a browser tab, and go into the site. This way the sites page is saved as a icon image. Then make it a quicklink.

Fully rooted, SlingPlayer not showing up in the Market

I was so excited when I got the email saying that the SlingPlayer for Android is released. So I checked the Market and ... well it's not there.
My other friend's stocked Evo already purchased and installed SlingPlayer but I just can't seem to find it no matter what in Market.
I read somewhere that it was because the Market checks the OS build and such to make sure it's okay for that platform.
Anybody has any ideas?
P.S. I have mine fully rooted.

Well mine is the stock ROM that the full root supplied, with a "test key" after the build number.
Not sure if that's the cause or what but I guess if I really don't have no choice but to use a leaked APK then... meh.
Any ideas?

The quality is actually pretty bad. I have the HD sling, hooked up via component cables. Basically, there are no options to adjust any quality settings. This is what it looks like at home over wifi. And yes, I pulled my cablemodem power to make sure it was actually using the in house wifi.
Source is a 1080i image that looks awesome over my 5mb up connection, on my PC. On the phone, just barely worth watching at arms lenght.
Note the graininess on 1 & 2, and the TERRIBLE aliasing (jaggies) on 3.
Not worth $30, to me.
Well thanks guys, but I end up finding it somewhere the lights don't shine.
It looks okay with my Solo over Component at 720p.
Beats the heck out of the Touch Pro 2 though!

right..you're suppose to replace that 'test' ROM with a rooted ROM so the market works etc.

Where'd you find it?

Bad flash performance since ICS, look here!

Since ICS update to Transformer 720p flash is completely unwatchable on my Asus Transformer.
After googling a bit I found a bug report in Adobes public bug db with a confirmed problem, GPU acceleration is not enabled.
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3099866
However, Adobe isn't planning on fixing it because of lack of time.

I do not have these problems. Updated Flash once I went to ICS. However, I am using the latest Revolver ROM, so that might make a difference

I don't have problem with 720 flash youtube videos.... Stock ICS
I already voted.
Have been experiencing problems on every variant of the stock browser (ICS+, Dolphin and vanilla stock) despite doing a complete wipe prior to updating.
FWITW, Opera updated their client and flash plays nicely on 720p.
Don't know how Opera can make this work and stock doesn't....

Please be more specific. Are you using stock browser, Dolphin or what? Also, is your user agent set to desktop?
Those YouTube videos may not even be flash. It may be defaulting to html5

HTML5 is not a solution yet. Flash is critical for things like twitch.tv. Nothing bugs me more than apologetics trying to dismiss the lack of Flash because "HTML5 is the future", this is the same thing Apple users have done for years while Android users have mocked them.

I also have problems, but only when I try full screen mode. Otherwise it works fine.

Couldn't agree more! I use my tf for a bit of stream browsing on twitch.tv and it bugs me as hell that while everything was fine and dandy under HC it is now crap.
I can confirm that windowed mode works after dolphin's upgrade yesterday but fullscren is still not there. It's like it opens on a "ghost" window somewhere and you can't focus on it to bring it to the front.
Finally can others please try opera to see if this resolves the issues? (Their latest changelog speaks specifically about adding flash functionality for 4.x devices)

Is it just me or do a ton of websites not work properly on the N4?

Maybe it's the lack of flash support or my bootlegged version but I often catch myself wondering if a page will display properly or not before tapping the link. None of these issues with the HOX.
Is it just me?
yip
I'm guessing that the lack of responses in a few hours time means to ignore the 2nd poster's response.
i think its you, i have no problem here...
would you mind giving a few examples??
If a page has flash I just use the AOSP browser. Otherwise, Chrome is fine. Not sure why you're having issues.
Don't know what you're talking about I totally enjoy browsing on my Nexus 4.

AOSP browser has to reside in system/app to work, meaning you'd need root. You might try using a different browser that supports flash. I believe dolphin browser HD does.
Then install flash player http://d-h.st/x4v
Oh, and don't forget to enable third party apps in settings.
I managed to download both Dolphin HD and flash and I still don't see some flash content.. I'm not going to root and partial flash is so crippling. . I can view flash sites like liveleak though.
You'd think there'd be a way by now!

Android doesn't support flash anymore and adobe isn't supporting mobile. Flash sucks, but unfortunately a LOT of sites use it.
Just out of curiosity, what keeps you from rooting?
I had a bad experience rooting concerning battery life and choppiness in tapatalk/browsers so I said screw that. Given, I didn't spend much time in between rooting and flashing Cm10.1 and also I flashed a really early build of CM, less than a month into development. I wonder if things have improved but I love getting 5-6 hours screen on and having everything soooo smooth that I'm not willing to mess with stock.
Somebody really needs to come up with a fix for those in my boat. Maybe I'll have to learn how to code fluently (only know extremely bare basics) and try it myself.

I honestly have no idea, but I suspect it's a problem on Google's side, not the phone's.
Try tubemate. It gives every available resolution in every possible connection n device. BTW you can use 3rd party players with tubemate too which is a good thing if you use MX player. Download the tubemate apk. There's no playstore version. My YouTube doesn't even give more than 480p. It's just device oriented. It will not give you higher res than your phone's display res.
