[think tank] Youtube HD standard over 3G - Nexus One General

I like watching youtube a ton, and lately I've grown tired while at work after every video switching back to HD.. does anyone know where to find the coding for the youtube apk and get it to do HD by default? Sorry if this has been covered.
-Charlie

I used the app that removes the clock from the status bar.
xUltimate-v1.2.4.zip
One of the options is a patch to make YouTube HD the default.

it's not showing up in the market. got a direct link?

Sorry. You can search this forum it Google. It's a PC app. It requires adb, but the process is done by the app. I'll try and find the link and post later, today

Well that depends on where you are, and they are rolling out more 3G coverage as we speak.
And if you see some of my posts, I'm pretty darned critical of AT&T, so no fanboyism here.

People are just discussing information about CHT 1.8, it has nothing to do with being serious.
I'm loving it very much as well. Has that home screen music widget always been there? I'm freaking loving it!
Yep. It's rad. Stoked on it and nothing to complain about. The widgets are cool.

Did you guys uninstall the patch for HDWall? I haven't tried it yet.
Does this have a setting for disabling your Data connection if it's not used for a period of time? I noticed that I'll wake my phone up and the data connection is turned of... Turn it back on and it's fine, but I can't seem to find anything in the options in regards to what is happening.
I didn't notice it happening before CHT 1.8.

Evo + Froyo + Flash = ESPN3 = World Cup EVERYWHERE :)

Currently watching World Cup games through ESPN3.com on my Evo ...... SOOOOOOOO NICE.
Quality is much better than Sprint TV
You get to replay all the games and watch live ones
Full DVR controls with markers for each important part in the game
BTW, if Apple is still waiting for an example of Flash running well on a phone this is it.
have you tried other site
can you watch videos on fancast, online movie sites, or clicker,tv? what about dvix online videos?
Needs Froyo right? Just tried on Eclair and no go
damnn when are we going to be able to install froyo?
you can right now, there are two builds in the dev section, but niether are fully functioning
Can't you just install the flash plugin? I can watch several flash sites on my phone with 2.1

Can you list a couple of those sites that you can watch? I tried Hulu.com and they don't support the Android platform and I went to Adobe for the plugin and they only support Nexus One on Google.
Too bad my ISP is not amongst ESPN3's affiliates, and besides, Nigeria lost to Greece this morning, so i'm in a foul mood already anyway !!!

You can actually watch it on univision.com using Skyfire from the market. No need for flash or froyo and the image quality is spectacular, even on 3G. It's in spanish, but who cares.

Look for the file 'youtube.lnk' in the Windows folder, and copy it Windows\Start Menu. Or find the file 'youtube.exe' and send it to the Windows\Start Menu as a shortcut.
You need to know how to mamipulate your filer explorer, whether it be the native Windows app, or a third party.

Does anyone know why i can't watch videos from megavideo with this or any other ROM?
I already installed flash 10.1 for android 2.1 and i can look youtube videos (like a desktop), but not from megavideo. It shows me another page
You probably need the version of flash in 2.2

there is only partial Flash 10 support in Android 2.1. So until we get FroYo, that's what we got.
Skyfire doesn't work. So we have to wait. Thanks all of you.
Moved to general as not development.
Please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8475563&postcount=2 for guidelines on posting in development.

Skyfire DOES work. I haven't tried megavideo exactly, but other sites it works perfect. You gotta do some setting changes on your phone.. it was posted 4 weeks ago. Though it's not as good as having 2.2 flash..

open up your browser. now, type “about:debug” and hit go. click “Settings”, and scroll on down to the bottom to reveal the “UAString”.
you now change your user agent string — the bit of info that tells a website what type of device you are running — to “froyo-n1”.
Anybody wanna share the link they receive by text message or the direct download link that the OP mentioned ? I am not receiving the text lol

Here is the link I got directly from Gameloft : - removed link apparently its a one device only apk -
Enjoy guys!
Update: that link got me a version of Hero of Sparta and it runs smoothly however there is no sound coming out of the speakers at all (I obviously checked the volume rockers lol) The Media Volume is crossed out.
I had asked them for a Nexus One apk so that might be the reason, already put another request for a Galaxy S apk letting them know I have a Nexus S we will see what they say
Update 2: Their answer :
Hello!
I am sorry for the misunderstanding.
Unfortunately, your Android device Samsung Nexus S is not supported. Our development team is constantly working to bring new games to all platforms and we forward them all your suggestions. We do not currently have any specific information to share about release of games for your device, but be sure to follow our Twitter (twitter.com/gameloft) or like us on Facebook (facebook.com/gameloft) so that you'll be the first to know when this changes. All our new game announcements are available there in real time, so stay tuned!
If your device is not supported, please do not try downloading a game which is not for your specific phone model. Each game is built for one particular device. If your phone is not listed, it's no use trying to get another game build. It will not work and it is not meant to work.
Please get back to me if you have any other questions.
Best wishes,
