You guys,
i was messing around online and i got the Froyo build of youtube to work on the continuum. all you have to do is,
1. Get astro or something simalar and delete (or rename) the stock youtube app.
2.Download the attached apk.
3.find it in astro and install.
4. reboot and enjoy!
feel free to post if there's any problems.
What are the advantages of froyoutube? Is it working 100%?
well , it is mostly just a ui facelift, its a little easier to navigate. the only issue that im aware of at this point is that if you login to your youtube account, it throws you into a force close loop.
I signed in and I'm not having any force closes or anything else wrong so far

Noice. i have no idea why its doing that to me, maybe youtube cant verify that im running Froyo?
Damn. I was hoping that maybe it would support the Shows on youtube There's a butt load of funimation anime on there as well as quite a lot of other things I'd love to watch, but you can't
Wait. Never mind. It started force closing after I restarted my phone :/
Grr. So frustrating.

Yeah, these issues are known for this build.... I would wait until we are on froyo to use this

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?

I'm not.. then again.. I'm on fresh lol

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.

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.
Sent while sitting on the toilet.
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...
Recently, my camera is failing to save any image that is taken. I've tried every camera app I could find and several different roms including fission 2.4.3 and gummyjar 2.5
Can anyone help me with this? Any help is greatly appreciated
The problem started after I updated from fission 2.2.2 to 2.3.1. I posted the problem on their board and I got no response

Does your other media work like camcorder, music, etc?
The camcorder doesn't work. Most video playback works, but youtube doesn't. I don't use my phone for music, so I don't know about that.

99% sure you need to update your system. I hate to be a jerk, but this question is asked often. Therefore, I'm going to default to: search is your friend (Google or forum).

Does updatimg the system mean updating the kernal? Iv tried some research n I dont understand the benift, aLso, to update the kernal do u just install the zip under bootlaoder?
Have you messed with the DCIM folder on your SD card? Such as opened it and accidenctly sorted by date or size? I did that once and my cam wouldn't save a pic...let a lone even open the app. So I hooked my phone to computer and ascended the date from old to newest. meaning the newest pic was at the bottom of the folder. unhooked and rebooted phone and all was fine... just my two...
It just started today. Anyone else?

Nope may want to check the latest app that you have installed or any recent updates

Yeah backtrack your apps install and see what is causing the FC's.
I have two with a third on the way(long story) but nothing wrong with any one of them. Before the update the first one had a few lockups on the browser but after the update neither one had any lockups or FC's.
I have installed all types of apps just to see what will or will not work. Very few FC's if any at all. But I kept track of which apps caused the FC's to remove them until they get updated.
Its on apps like CNN and Facebook which have been working fine before. I guess I will try to track it back.
i get a lot of force closes with the browser and the CNN app. try killing the process as well as the cached process. theres two options. you will see it under 'running applications'
Only force close for me from the Facebook app so far is when I try to load the home screen widget. Slightly annoying.

I've had more FCs than I do on my rock-stable Droid 2 with Fission, esp. in the browser, but I suspect it's because Honeycomb is new.
It'll get more stable as Google handles bug reports and as devs learn how to use the new APIs.
Also, strict mode, which I need to get on, myself.
The FCs I get are retarded. I only seem to get them when I'm exiting out of the app anyways. I did get a FC once when I was using the Facebook app going from the stream to the home page thing, but it didn't actually close the app. So it's more annoying than anything.
the facebook widget and app are not designed for honeycomb, and many have stated it FCs. i would not use it for now. I use the app and it seems to work fine (not pretty, but works).
Also, OP. I used to get a tons of FCs in the browser and CNN. I cleared caches and uninstalled, but sometimes still the same thing. Try rebooting. I know it sounds cliched and the standard windows answer, but it honestly worked for me. I haven't had a FC in a while...knock on wood.
facebook is hit and miss. Sometimes after a boot the facebook app will work. Sometimes it won't. When it isn't working it will just fc constantly and is completely useless. The add account never works. The widget never updates.
Facebook is uninstalled till they fix it.
I get FC randomly, on random apps.. I report all of them.

Important to everyone about FC's, make sure you report them via the in system prompt that happens when they FC
Glad I'm not tithe only one who reports them all. Ha. :]

Iv been getting a lot of FC's also.. even before I installed apps.. just seems that this is a lot more buggy then it should be.
Only FC I get is with the xda app, but that bug has been around for a long time. I dont use the facebook app and stopped using the CNN widget due to it slowing down the home screen. The app works fine for me though. On stock 3.0.1

Netflix App just auto updated. I have been able to open and play 3 movies.
Wanted to make sure everyone knew that I am not a dev. I did not make this nor did I modify the official app.
I originally used this as a queue manager but noticed that when I opened it today it auto updated.
You can find the APK here.
Its in a zip. Do not flash. its one of my quirks to zip everything.

Very interesting, has anyone tried this?
Still Not working for me
Tried this earlier tonight. I could not find an update for my already installed Netflix app. Netflix was still throwing up the server error when trying to stream.
I did not try the zip file nor did I attempt to download it.
I had tried and if you look across the net apparently it was working for evo's and eventually netflix shutem down lol. awesome though should be sooner than later that we get a working app for netflix.
I tried this as well, no luck but I did get an email knocking off 3% from Netflix because I couldn't get on.

So I am trying to download videos to watch offline for a trip, tomorrow, to my unrooted tablet and I keep getting error 49 not supported on rooted devices. I getting so pissed I want to throw it, I'm NOT ROOTED. I'm unrooted with market and videos up to date and also tried without updates to no avail. My question is it supposed to work unrooted? If I root and run the hacked videos apk will it allow me to download then? Thanks for input in advance
