I went to change the user agent in the cm6 browser from android to iPhone and then went to YouTube it tells me that I need to enable safari plugins for it to play. How do you do that

Why would you want to do that? The iphone does not support flash and I don't think the browser will. The android browser has more capabilties than the browser found on the iPhone and since sites think you are using the iPhone you may not be able to view certain things.
I wasn't going to keep it on iPhone I was just wondering why I couldnt watch YouTube that's all

Does anyone else have a problem with the youtube app, being that it doesn't choose to watch videos in HQ by default. For each video I find my self racing in the menu to choose watch in high quality before the video starts. If I don't do it quick enough, the play time toggle pops up and I end up fast forwarding to the end, and then having to go to the menu again.. Why can't youtube just play HQ by default on my beautiful screen?? Anyone else feel my pain?

Use the mobile website. It's better.
Hmmm my Vibrant seems to default to HQ. Wonder why? I did just get it yesterday.
If your on wifi it defaults to hq if your on data it uses lq.
It happens to me too. I just use www.m.youtube.com
Much better and you can see new videos from your subscriptions.

I hear that in 2.2 samsung will add a HQ button so you dont have to rush to the menu.

I never had this problem on my aria using skyfire. Is there a setting I need to change?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
The setting your looking for is called "User Agent", set it to desktop if you don't want any mobile sites. I'm not sure why yours random started going to them but that's the setting for it.
Another thing that I find annoying is the fact that going to say fox.com to watch fringe skyfire won't load any video at all, just tried it on my liberated aria and it works with out a problem? I have only had the atrix 2 days, and I'm seriously disappointed. I think I might flip to a inspire by friday.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Its not random starting, I meant it just pushes me into mobile sites even if I choose the regular site. I'm just really disappointed with this phone. I really don't see much of a difference between the speed of this phone and my aria.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
the issue is most likely a skyfire compatibility issue with your phone, the market comments several phones having the same issue. However, my question would be if you are running 2.2 and can install flash, why do you need skyfire?
And seriously? after 2 days use you are ready to say it is not much better than a phone whose maximum overclock is 800mhz and has less than half the available RAM, much less a comprable screen? Give the very capable developers time, as well as motorola, to show you what kind of phone you have.
Its all little disheartening when the developers are starting to give up like Dg for one.
On the browser issue. I don't like the fact that I'm am supposedly using the most powerful phone but am restricted to using mobile sites. The stock browser yahoo mobile. And I can't find the user client option for the stock browser. I have skyfire set to desk top and that one is still taking me to mobile sites.
The inspire is looking better by the moment, I just don't like how big it is.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
lol switch to the inspire, test it out.
I guarantee you'll subtly switch back to the atrix and start posting back here in no time.
Where are the user client settings for the stock browser. I can't find them.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
By default I don't think you can change the user client of the stock browser. Try Miren Browser, Opera, Dolphin HD or Firefox. All are great browsers.
you're going to be pretty pissed off when you realize how much slower the inspire is, and how bad it's battery is. The atrix, like any product carries some buyers remorse
I just watched fringe on fox.com using Dolphin HD... No problems..
Never had a problem with Dolphin HD kicking me to a mobile page either..
I'll try dolphin out.thanks
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Oh that depends on why browser you're using, not the phone itself. If you want something free, get Dolphin Mini browser.
If you want something a little faster, xScope 6 is awesome and I love it.

Hey,
I'm using the stock browser in the ICS v7 ROM. I have used Opera Mobile Browser numerous times in the past. It works quite well; smooth & efficient.
Which one has faster dl spds

DL speeds are determined by your HSPA(+) signal strength, or wi-fi signal strength.
Browsers do not increase or hinder Download speeds.
IF you are talking about rendering the page quickly.
Opera Mini or Dolphin Mini.
Using the (almost) stock Sense 3.5 browser.
Stock browser on ICS is simply the best browser on any version of Android IMHO
FireFox Mobile (w/ add-ons).

Try UCbrowser, has its own kernal and awesome performance

Is it just me or has the page rendering on XDA gone bonkers when viewing from the Tablet?
I changed over to the rather ugly XDA Classic theme that fixes the rendering issue but what's the deal with page rendering on the XDA 2010 theme when viewing from the Tab?
Did something change in the css as I am getting this issue on ALL custom ROMS..
+1... they break something after "maintenance "
Man, am I glad I saw this thread. Thought I was going nuts!
Yeah thanks for starting the thread. I was just about to spend who knows how much time trying to figure out which app was killing all my memory.
It's being 2 days now and the bug in XDA web is still there... it makes hard to read site on a tablets (I've tried Dolphin HD and standard Android browser).

Why not just use the XDA HD app frm the Market for your XDA needs instead of viewing directly from the Browser?

I think you quoted the wrong person. Of course that's what I do, but trying it for the others having problems using the browsers and everything is fine. No issues like they're having in both browsers they mentioned and a couple others everything is fine...
I don't like xda app and yes they fixed CSS... so all good now.
I noticed about 4 months ago, Chrome on my S3 didn't like XDA.... So I used Firefox with no issues.
Then I had a LG Optimus G Pro (for about 1 week) with same results, so I used Firefox.
On my HTC One, neither Chrome or Firefox works on XDA, only the stock browser worked.
Now on my S4, I've tried all three and none of them work?
The page will load....... I can log in, but every time I scroll, the page reloads, which basically makes it unusable now...... Anybody else run into this problem?
Perhaps they are trying to get everyone to Tapatalk. It's a very good app.
