New Youtube App

Don't know if this has been posted, but there's a new official YouTube app on the market and it's leaps and bounds better than the old one. Definitely worth the update.

Anyone else having trouble installing it from the market on CM6?

installed fine on my evo running fresh. love the newish look.

I am stock...anyone know how to get the upgrade...I am on version 1.6.21
Edit: never mind....even though it's a pre-installed app and doesn't show in Market as a downloaded app (and thus no upgrade notification is available), you just go into Market, search for Google Youtube and install it like a new app. The pre-installed app will be upgraded.

Just a little bit cooler.
On the bright side, when the video is paused, it keeps buffering.

Just installed the new version over the one that came with sprint lovers rom. Nice update. Works great on evo

Installed on Azrael 2.2 and looks cool, thanks!

About time! Their youtube app was so bad I would just use the browser + flash instead.

You would think that if you searched for YouTube which is owned by Google, on the Market, which is also owned by Google, it would be the first one listed. Nope, it is the 9th.

Does anyone have youtube 1.6 apk. The new youtube 2.0 is nice but doesn't let me use youtube ripper. Thanks

new UI is nice but it still sucks at streaming with Froyo... constantly getting "There was a problem playing the video"

I rebooted and found it. My market is weird sometimes. The market is a mess and disorganized.

Are we still not able to comment on videos or am I missing something?

Just updated now...lovely UI, I like that you can just swipe left/right to view other tabs while video plays. HQ seems more, well, HQ too.

searched "You tube" and it was the first app that it showed...
Much better!! Before I couldnt watch half of the videos. Now everything plays and I'm not waiting on buffering either. I am overclocked so that may help with it not buffering...

Fascinate

If you're still in your 30 day return period, you may want to consider getting the Fascinate instead. Right now it's only $49 and comes with a free car mount and charger.

I know we have a lack of development...
I know we are all worried about 2.2...
I know we all are fustrated, to say the least...
But after playing Angry Birds and other such games, and having my girlfriend call me, there is no way i could live any other way... Having that easy red ignore button makes this phone sooooooo worth sticking with lol

I got a nexus s but I still love my g1
I really use my g1 to test stuff out on it is there any

Trying out different roms and kernels

Kids use it as a PTT, like a 2 way Nextel.

I use it as a streaming media player, with Pandora and TuneIn Radio. It works great for this. Also, I let my kids use NESoid on long car trips to play old NES games.

the g1 is still my main phone sadly :/ only one more month and i can finally upgrade

I've had my G1 since it came out. :O 1st Smartphone. I use it as my Daily Phone. I have n iPhone 3G and 3G's. My iPhone 3G runs Android *2.3.5 AOSP Build* and my 3Gs is my iPod. I could never Drop my G1. The only reason I'm getting a new phone is because I'm getting a massive deal on a MT4Gs. I'm probally going to just Keep my G1 in Airplane mood, load up FBL, and play emulators on it. :3

My 3 year old has been using it for a play phone. Just charged it and still works perfectly except a few dings. No scratches on the screen though. Going to root it now for fun.

If you can believe i just got a g1 a couple days ago, Thought it'd be cool to play around with an older droid like this. I love it actually still a great device and good phone. I use it for my daily phone.

It's my phone, it works so well I'm not thinking in getting another.

Its the remote control for my htpc! With the radio for cell off the battery lasts forever. Keyboard lets me search easy for shows and through Netflix interface.

Still use and love my little ole G1! In fact half my family have G1's because of me and my constant ranting about them

I use it as a streaming media player, and whatsapp

Makes a great backup phone (convert to t-mobile prepaid and charge it up for $100 for 1000 minutes which doesn't expire for a year), then load ebook reader apps on it from the market and use it as an ebook (epub, whatever) reader (Aldiko & Foliant).
Also, rooted and using wireless tether apps it becomes a backup internet connection for a computer.
calculator
backup camera
marine compass
gps
weather station
...the list goes on and on....

how NOT to show off your phone

So I pulled out my phone today at a bar and was doing some reading.
Someone next to me was like, "WHOA BIG PHONE" and next thing you know, I have 5 people surrounding me @@ing at the Note.
So I'm flipping around, and someone says, 'Can you show a video?' and I'm like 'Sure!'
So I go into app folders (I have tons of apps, so it's all sorted out). click on gallery. Not found. What? Oh - I had ROMed to ICS two days ago.
Click on Videos. Not found. Great.
Clicking around folders trying to find the new video player and everyone left thinking, 'Gee, this phone is sure hard to use' and dispersed. oops.
I did, yet again, get the 'it's a little computer' comment - I think it's because of the folders/subdirectories I use in app folders.
- Frank

You should learn more about Android OS, and teach how to configure it.

Windy Day augmented reality app for the Moto X

Not exactly sure what this is but here are a couple of teasers that they released. Says it's launching on Oct 29:

Watched it this morning when I saw the hat floating around the screen. It was cute and comical at times. A little long but there was all sorts of things going on.

I just saw it this morning as well. It was pretty cool. I couldn't keep up with the hat at times since I was half asleep but it was definitely pretty neat.

Not sure how we are supposed to get it. Had the spotlight app show up a day or so ago and then nothing. Trip to play store app doesn't show an update available either.

Still no hat on my home screen either. The widget just gives me 2 screens.... I'm hoping that when I get home from work and go on WiFi it shows up.

Nothing for me either.

I'm running Doobie's tmobile rom on mine and I have no hat. :fingers-crossed:

Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app

Running the latest version of stock AT&T software, rebooted phone, connected to WiFi, uninstalled and reinstalled spotlight. Still no hat.

So I just turned my phone on this morning checking the web and this little red/Orange hat starts floating all over my chrome browser screen. Finally manage to tap it and it's pretty awesome. I don't really see the usefulness but it was quite entertained and probably looked like an idiot out here dancing in the shop following the hat.

I got it this morning too. Finally. A day late.
Sent from my Moto X

when i first saw the hat floating around my screen i got nervous like it was some new virus/malware. then i remembered i downloaded the app. While the content was fit for a child, the way it showcases the technology to be able to watch a movie in a full 360 degree field of vision which is pretty amazing. this has some great potential.

I haven't gotten it yet, but have not taken the ota, think that has something to do with it?
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app

I am completely stock with the ota and I haven't seen anything yet. To those who have seen the hat are you on the stock launcher?

Also curious about what launcher you guys are on that have the app working.

I woke this morning and had the hat floating around. I think it was a very cool thing and enjoyed it. It really does show where this could go with a fully immersive environment.
I am using nova launcher by the way but I highly doubt it should matter.

Got it last night as well

When you got the original download did you click OK or disable?
