I would love for it to work but I have a feeling the Sling AP would not work with the new AU.
But... you could go to slingbox.com and sign into your sling player that way and watch with no problem I would assume. I will find out tomorrow.
thanks, I have the same feeling. Slingbox.com will probably work, but not until Xoom gets Flash support.
I doubt slingbox.com would work...you need to install a browser plugin, its not just flash only.
Wouldn't the app work in "stretched" mode?
I'm sure theyll come out with one eventually, im just hoping its a scaleable update to the current one.
I have to hope they don't really expect me to shell out another $30 for a tablet version of the mobile one I already have.

Oh yea, you are correct about the plugin... I completely forgot about that. ha!
Well, hopefully they come out with an ap for Honeycomb, I can't imagine they wouldn't. Hopefully sooner than later.
Slingplayer works but the video quality is not great (not optimized for the large display), but it does work.
Yea I completely forgot about the plugin. Slingplayer would be the app I used most on a tablet. The Droid Streamer Pro app is a good alternative, but i doubt the current version of that will work on honeycomb either.
Thank you. Good to know that at least it works somewhat. I can live with it not being as sharp as it is on a phone as long as its watchable until they update the app for Honeycomb

Google better make this right fast! come on guys, seriously..
you probably want the htc version of youtube. its the pretty red one. not the ugly google one. why didnt google just cab up htcs version?
Google stuff looks crappy by design. I pretty much like the HTC Youtube Cab, are there any significant advantages of the original one?

lol ya tried that one too. tells me installation unsuccessful. running official 6.5 and cf3.7 if that matters.
you need 2.5 for windows mobile 6.5.
Here you go.. found this today! go to the link and you'll find a cab for the stock HD2 youtube, it works perfectly on my touch pro 2. There are other great goodies to download from the link, thx to kurniawan77...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639964
This is sort of my first real post, so hopefully I'm not doing anything wrong.
These are cab extracted from the HD2 and most of them work perfect on my touch pro 2
The YouTube cab is the one that came originally with the HD2 and similar/if not the same to the one that came with the touch pro 2. I tried it and it worked perfect!!!!
thanks to kurniawan77..
ENJOY!
tjworldgreatest, you are the best! of course that worked!! flawlessly, finally I don't have to cringe while watching some videos..I was never into the full user experience on Youtube, so I really don't care about my login stuff anyway..
does the hd2 version of youtube bring anything extra? i might get bored and install it.
^^not that I could tell..Looks exactly the same. Both versions are still 2.6..

Well dang. What am I doing wrong. It looks ok at first but then when I slide open the whole thing scrambles. Even if I keep it in portrait if i play a video it freezes the whole phone 2 seconds in... wtf... Anyone else using this on a official 6.5?

Oh Yeah....
Your going to get that on any of the ripped HTC YouTube versions....they dont support landscape, expect for when the video plays.
With search and what not in the menus, you have to use on screen keyboard.
They arent meant for our devices...
the stock version of youtube for rhodium has landscape support.

So I am trying to set up video chatting for phone to PC use. I have found that Yahoo works, but it only comes out the back camera of my phone. Does anyone know of a fix for this? Or is this standard? If so, are there any other apps?
I have only ever heard of Yahoo working from phone to PC. Thanks in advance.
My ffc worked before I installed CM7. I also have been trying to figure this out. help!
I also want to know!

I am pretty damn surprised that this isn't a more popular question. Barely any replies. I still have had no luck with any phone to PC that works with FFC.

Look for "CM7 Yahoo camera fix" or something like that, in Development forum.

i have the same problem but i dont think it has anything to do with cm7.. yahoos video chat doesnt work with gingerbread. thats why i think it doesnt work right. but im not 100% sure of that but makes since. it doesnt show that it works for gingerbread if u read what devices it supports for the add on video chat thing for yahoo messenger
Google coming out with their gtalk app its a pc to phone phone to phone app. Wait for that as it will be significantly better. Yahoo won't work as it looks for the hacks in froyo to get the ffc to work they need to upgrade for gingerbread support so that that can use correct api.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
yeah, I thought it was really funny how the day after I posted in this topic, Google made that announcement.
also, I'm born and raised here in Maui as well, but I'm moving to Honolulu in a few weeks.
Cant find gtalk on the market right now, my guess the new version will be out very soon.

WoW!!!
How good does this look?
Only prob is it is not a free app, and probably rightly so as I have never seen an android browser do this before!
If anyone gets it, post review here.

Thanks for the heads up.

Here is score and a few things it did not do so well on. Looks like its good for basic browsing.

I am running on Vache rom with the acer rings wifi patch and 3.01 patch.
This is pretty darn sweet. Thanks for the find MJ-12, and thanks ER for the screenshots. Worth double the price.
Your very welcome I have been using it all day.
Its kinda a taste to what I think android will become. The same Dev has a few other floating. Apps. Like a calculator.
definitely cool enough to drop a buck and a half on. I played with it for a few minutes and then moved on but when the time comes and I need a couple browsers at the ready Ive got an app for that!
If any developers are interested in how he's doing it, he's registering the app as a service and drawing to the notification layer which also allows you to intercept (and act upon) touch events.
Not saying this app is doing it, but beware of apps that request those permissions, they could in theory log every touch on your screen.
Chrome Beta does much better

Chrome beta scores 350 approx already... guess they might add such feature in the future
That is pretty slick. They have a calculator that does the same thing too. True multitasking here we come!
Just tried it, works great, thanks for sharing!
had this since i read about it on...... where was it, phandroid or android central, one of the two.
definetly worth the money. don't use it that much but its really nice when i do.
tip: leave browser defaults unchecked, so your tab prompts you to choose a browser and you can choose overskreen. its like window's "open link in new window"
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there is any sort of way to have apps open in windows instead of opening on the entire screen. I for some reason remember seeing something like this a while back but I don't know if I'm just having created memories or if I actually saw it.
Thanks for any help
Yea there is some company that tried to market it to OEMs for gingerbread a while back I believe. I haven't seen much recently on this accept that the ipad has a hack for jail-broken devices that allows this feature, so considering the floating apps android already supports and androids superior multitasking it should be possible if some really awesome devs work it into a ROM of find an incredible mod for stock ROMSs. This has always interested me so hopefully we can find how possible it is and maybe someone could get it done.
Edit;
Found the article on this, not as old as I thought, but it is still on an older version of Android.

Yea, I have the overscreen browser and aircalc calculator, I had to sideload the browser from my transformer though as the nexus is unsupported. But I would still like to see a mod or ROM that allows this for all apps, much like this mod for the ipad.

I have the i'm Watch (imwatch.it) I thought in buying the Sony one. But now that the have released the Sideload Manager and it now accepts a least to the best of my knowledge, Android 1.6 apps and have installed and run Angry Birds, Dolphin Browser, Opera Mini, all seem to work fine, and saw the awful Browser for the Sony, I am really no longer so sure.
If one could install, any software like in the I'm Watch into the Sony one, I will probably be buying the Sony soon. If there are limitations, probably not.

Are you loading apps via I'M Cloud or another way? I cannot get that cloud to recognize myvwatch.
Why isn't anyone here using the Motorola MotoACTV? It is still the best, in my opinion. Runs android 2.3.5, is rooted, has Roms, has root tools and even an AOSP rom already out there.

It's cheaper than the I'm watch. You can find them on ebay for between $50 and $200. I don't think that's a reason.
Although, the root tool I developed for it has been downloaded over 11,000 times now, so apparently it's being used quite a bit lol. I just want more of you guys to recognize its awesomeness.

Ah yes! I need to add the metawatch! The rock watch is on ebay, and I think on amazon too. I can't remember who makes it, but the real world battery life is not so great, from my understanding. Still, it looks neat lol. I will complete my chart tonight if I'm able, with all their features, such as wifi, gps, vibration function, etc. I'll also try to add pictures. If you guys know if any of those prices are wrong, let me know? I tried to find retail prices for them but had problems.

Thanks for all of your hard work -- not easy to pull all the details together.
The prices you've cited look pretty accurate to me. (Note that Pebble has set $150 for non-kickstarter pricing.)
Thanks again for this handy reference chart.
Thanks for the comparisons. If I had known fhat tye motoactv was rooted with custom ROMs, I might have not bought the I'M Watch.
Here, check it out now:

I've added a LOT. I've still got to add the WIMM One watch and the MetaWatch though.
UPDATE: 3/11 - Added the WIMM One and MetaWatch. If anything is wrong, some places contradicted information, so please let me know!
Motoactv FTW! Runs on Android 2.3.4, runs a plethora of smart phone apps, and it's not hideously under-powered.
