Is it possible to open YouTube video link from web pages or search results in YouTube App? I have tried clearing defaults on browser app but still no luck. I don't see any defaults on YouTube app.
My gingerbread phone can do so but not my honeycomb A500. Anything I am missing?
Thanks
So no one has answer for this?

Main settings, applications, manage applications, all. Scroll down to "YouTube", and near the bottom you'll see "launch by default".

Looked around but launch by default is not enabled for YouTube.
What worked though is, Clear Data, Force Stop on YouTube App and tried opening youtube links from browser. This time I get open with Youtube app option
So I checked default checkbox and things are working fine.
Thanks

Now that my GF has Froyo she wants to use it to catch up on her shows she watches, for instance VH1.com, defaults to wap.vh1.com. How can this be disabled so that she can watch her videos?

There is a vh1 app for Android.
To turn off the MOBILE user agent, go into the browser, hit menu, go into settings and disable mobile view

That didn't work, still goes to wap.vh1.com. Even rebooted and retried.
i would suggest either using dolphin hd and setting it up to view pages in desktop mode, or open up a window in the stock browser, type "about:debug" without the quotes. menu, settings, scroll down to UAString and change it to desktop.
U can try bolt browser as its the only java based mobile browser which can stream.
I haven't upgraded yet. But, I was able to scroll down to the very last link on the Wap page "Desktop Site." I then bookmarked the full site and am now able to go directly to it though bookmarks.

I changed my uastring to desktop mode and now every time I try to open my browser it force closes it won't display anything so I can't even change it back. anyone else encounter this and have a resolution?
I'm on stock j16, native browser.
I did this a long time ago with a similar experience. I think I just restored a nandroid backup. I'm sure there are other methods, but this worked for me.
I encountered this issue recently. You have to empty out the cache in the browser.

All you do is go to applications click menu and select all applications to show. The when you find browser clear cache defaults and force stop. That's how mine was fixed.

thanks guys. both of these helped! also for someone else who might encounter this, your apps list is automatically filtered so i couldn't even find my browser in the apps. you have to select menu > filter > all to actually see the browser.

Happy to help. Somehow T.W prevents the ua string from working without flash. It only works with froyo.

Haven't seen this posted anywhere and thought it was useful. To set the stock honeycomb browser User Agent to desktop (load webpages as desktop site instead of mobile)
Open browser and in the address bar type this
about:debug
Open browser settings (top right corner) and you should see a new debug option with a crap load of options. One of them being UAstring.
Change this to desktop
This along with a proper flash player let's you do anything a desktop browser can do all from the stock hc browser
Its not my fault if you change any other setting and it causes world war 3 or any other tragic event.
Don't forget to say thanks

Old news, and it was already posted somewhere. HC 3.1 and above has that option in the browser settings menu, no need to do 'about:debug' anymore

Didn't have this option on civatos 3.2 in my settings. Only way to get it was to do about:debug. It wasn't old news to me when I found it two days ago. If I help say thanks. If I don't, move along.

Yes it is very much an option in Civato's ROM.
Stock browser, settings, advanced, viewing mode.
Like sensei said, old news for 3.01
So I have a reddit app, but sometimes I like to browse the actual website ( I have my reasons )... But when I click on a link it will randomly ask if I want to open the link with my reddit app or the browser. I click browser and check the option that says "always open with browser" which is great, except that a second later it asks me the same question after clicking on a link. Just taking a shot here wondering if anyone knows how to fix this. Very annoying after a while. Unrooted here.
Check your settings privacy yet? Maybe your settings is keeping it from doing what you want like accepting cookies or form data etc. What browser are you using?

Just checked and all that stuff is allowed, I really thought you had it. ... Thank you for the suggestion though!
OK, so I've been using Google Messenger for ages now, and I have no idea how the Samsung messenger works. Right now, when I click a link in a text, it brings up an internal Samsung browser that opens the page. Is there any way I can disable it, and just open it in my default web browser (In this case, Firefox)?
Thanks in advance for the help.

you need to clear default data from Samsung Browser
next it will ask how to complete action (select Firefox)
:good:
Sorry, maybe I was unclear: Clicking the link isn't opening Samsung's browser itself, it's opening like an "in app" browser, which opens the web page. I then have to click "more" and select "Open in browser". I've never actually opened the Samsung browser, and it's not selected as a default for anything.

I actually hate textra. The only reason I'm using the stock app is for the RCS and the always on screen notifications. If I was going to move away from the stock app, I'd just go back to Google Messenger.

There isn't, at all. I've checked every setting in the app, trying to find something hidden through system settings but I'm not expecting anything.
edit: wrong reply.
