I got beef the youtube app, and I'm sure they wont listen to little ol me

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.

This is just what I was looking for. Awesome! Upgraded. The mobile site is just as bad guys, you have to go through hoops to get hq.

what's that voice???

Hello guys!
my friend has got a problem... this morning we were at school, and he had his phone in silent mode with data connection disabled... at a certain point, a stupid voice came out from his phone saying: "data connection disabled". it was quite loud and I don't know what could it be...have you got any ideas? remember, the phone was in silent mode and he didn't disable the data connection when the voice came out... thank you

The only time a voice ever came from my phone that wasn't a phone call - when I was applying voodoo lagfix.

I don't know in fact but this voice was one of the synthesized voices... but I don't know where it came from! hahahahahaha

Probably your friend installed any Kernel using Voodoo lagfix and it got rebooted inside his pocket... Then the Kernel converted the filesystems and the voice could have said: "Lagfix is now disabled" right before rebooting...

mmmm no, he didn't installed anything, and I clearly heard "data connection disabled"... I'm italian, I heard the equivalent of "data connection disabled" in italian... his phone is equipped with froyo 2.2.1, do you think if I flash a new ROM, maybe a gingerbread one, the problem could be solved?

Are you sure, that voice came from your phone nothing else???

yeah! from the phone! :O

Ignore, just re-read. Definately in Italian?

I remember hearing this in Google Navigation when you loose or disable data connection. There is a separate setting for navigation volume only inside the app. Who knows, maybe your friend used navigation and didn't close it properly. If you just hit BACK, this app keeps running in the background. Hope it helps.

Speaktoit Virtual Assistant

Has anyone got this to work on the Epic??? I installed it, and the program is able to understand my commands but I'm unable to hear any responses back. If you got this to work, could you give me a step by step on exactly what you did?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I just installed it and I can here it speak. Make sure your have media volume up. I'm running acs frozen.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Also I have both the speech and conversation mode on in the settings. And make sure you have pico tts installed. The app itself is not that accurate. I like "voice actions infinity" a lot better.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yea I think there is something wrong then. Because I downloaded other apps like Vlingo and Voice Search and again, the program understands me but when it speaks back to me, I can't hear anything. My media volume is turned up. Do I have to add something to my phone? This is so frustrating.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Ok...go to your phone settings--voice input and output--text to speech settings--default engine--pico tts. Let me know how it goes please.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yea I went there and I selected Pico but it dosen't do anything. I even tried downloading espeak tts and when I go to select that engine it force closes. It seems like I either have something disabled or I'm missing something that won't allow me to use tts. By the way, Im able to hear fine while using a navigation program, its just anything else, I'm having problems.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

i think navigation is different since it's not actually reading anything to you from a text. are you running a costume rom or r u stock? have you tried restarting your phone after enabling the tts?

Im using the epic revolution fat free rom too by the way. I just sent a pm to the developer asking him was there something excluded from the rom that is not allowing me to hear from these programs. Hopefully he gets back to me as soon as possible.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I was just about to suggest contacting the developer. As long as you have tts enabled you should be good to go. It looks like an issue with the way your phone or rom is handling its text to speech engine. post his reply here because im sure others would like to know also (if in fact its a problem the rom). I wish i could be of any more help bro.

No doubt. I will let you know what he say. If he doesn't respond, I will post my question to the actual rom thread to see if someone could help me. Thanks!

Mine was not working either for about one minute..till i went to download that app they pretty much shove down your mouth when u first open the app. It may seem like it doesnt install..even the comments beneath will say it doesnt install...but it does..just on your sd card. It will create a folder. Go back in the app and Iris is working like a charm!!

New Notification

I've been running CM7 since the last "Alpha" release and have it updated with the Oct 22 update. I don't recall exactly when, but I started recieving these "optout" notifications. I don't know if it's related to CM7 or something else, but they're not cool at all . Does anyone know where they're coming from or how to stop them?

The only app I have installed now that was not before I switched to CM7 is Go SMS Pro. Has anyone had any experience with it?

Go sms pro doesn't do that, but i don't use go fb chat. What opens when you click it?

Found this after a bit of research. Looks like an adbased app on your phone is using their apk. Seems they do support opt out, but aren't doing a good job a securing your identity period.

I'm not going to click those %^#$%#$%#$ Spam messages... I clear all the notifications. The only features of Go SMS Pro I use are SMS & MMS. I don't have Facebook, Myspace, Google+ or any other "Social networking" (Read: Stalking) crap. Want nothing to do with any of them. Any ideas how I can track down where it came from? I've looked at the installed apps and services with Titanium Backup and nothing stands out. Unless One of the other apps got 'updated' to include this new 'feature', Go SMS seems the most likely suspect at the moment.

wats a myspace?

Although I usually have 150-200+ apps installed at any one time, I started getting those annoying little "notifications" almost as soon as I installed the free version of the IPhone keyboard. Not cool at all...

How often do they come up? Is it at a predetermined time or is it random? A relatively easy way to narrow it down may be to look at market reviews of suspected apps.

Girlfriend had this problem. There's an app called airpush detector on the market. Download it to see what's causing the ads

Groove ip works but not with the default dialer, was simply trying to streamline the look. It actually works really well, so right now I'm just asking more for improving aesthetics.

Well I don't think it does use stock dialer at all. Stock dialer uses verizons ish. Groove has its own operations and google voice to call and text just uses voice. I'm pretty sure u can take out the dialer and just use groove and voice

Also thought I should share my nifty sms app I have been using.
It's called ninja sms and I got it for 1$ at the play store and I love it. Should check it out of you text quite a bit and don't want to continuously change between apps. It allows the sms to come up on the screen. Kind of like multi boxing on the s3
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium

My lcuid 2 has that ability where the text will pop up and allow me to respond, delete or view without leaving the app. It is a super awesome feature.

Yeah I wish my dna had it stock but ninja sms is good for me.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium

Does ninja have a character count? My pop-up has a character limit, if I go into the native messaging app I can type as much as I want and it will break it into multiple messages, the pop up only allows for a single message response. I haven't decided if I like that or not. I guess it really depends on I can use that to tweet.

When I text I can send more than 120 characters and on my screen it only sends as one message. You could try it out and always refund if you don't like it.

Yeah just took a look at it and sent a large message and it sent as one huge message and didn't split into different messages. You can view a text that is more than 160 characters as long as it was sent as one big message. I don't believe it has a limit. As far as I can tell it doesn't split it up.

So I really like the way ubuntu looks. Since my dna is locked and I have no access to unlock or root the phone via software method all I can do is jtag, however I'm not going to do that so I can't flash anything. Since I love the way ubuntu looks I decided to theme my phone after it using a launcher and a ton of custom widgets. Here is what I came up with.
