Online flash videos is always blank - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have CM7 installed on my mytouch 4g and when I try to view online flash videos the video is blank but I can hear the sound. I reinstalled flash many time and I used many different browers but I cannot seem to get the thing working. Can anyone help me please?

It only shows below a certain resolution. I think it's 240p but don't quote me on that.

I don't think its cm7, it has something to do with flash 10.3

I had this problem since 10.2

You have to go back to flash 10.1. Just search for the apk online.

I have a similar - but worse - problem. I cannot watch online videos (e.g. from YouTube), but I can also not watch videos that I have stored locally on the SD card. I both cases I can hear the sound but no video is shown.
Installing Flash 10.1 did neither solve the online video nor the local video problem :-(

Use flash 10.2.156.12

not sure if that was directed at me or someone else; in any case, I tried it and it did not help (neither for online nor for local videos).

Google the 10.1 apk. That one should work for online video. Make sure to reboot tue device after installing the apk. Sd card playback is a different issue.

This thread, post 58-not the op! (posted be killbynature) is what fixed my sound/no picture for on line flash videos a few months ago...am on 10.3 now, faux's aosp without issues...just out of curiosity, which cm7 are you on?

Nope, that doesn't work. Neither does version 10.2.156.12 as was suggested before. Since I have these problems with both online and local videos, I think that it's something more "substantial" than the flash player ...

Today I was able to fix my problem, which was apparently triggered by the kernel I use - DemonSpeed v9. After getting rid of it and going back to the kernel that comes with CM7, why videos all work now (so does my camera, which also no longer work, recently).

Yea, I believe demonsoeed is for sense only. Try an asop kernel, like one of faux asop kernels.

There is indeed a demonspeed kernel for Sense based ROMs; but there is also one for CM7 based ROMs and that's the one I used. SO it does not seem to be a general incompatibility between my kernel and ROM.
Right now, I'll stick with "stock" CM7.1 for a few days and then maybe try the faux kernel ...

The thing that sucks is all the sites blocking mobile flash player. Hulu, nbc, foxsports, tons of sites detect which version of flash you are using and block their content. People that are getting the google tv's are experiencing this too. So far, everything I would have used flash for, I haven't been able to anyway.

R10 comes with flash 10.1 installed. It's only the new flash update that it won't let you insatll. Also if you search the nexus forums you'll find the hacked version of flash player that will let you view hulu.

Camera failure

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...

whats the best video chat app qik, tango, fring or oovoo

So after using Cyanogen 6 & 7 here's a little review on what video chat apps work on froyo CM6 and Gingerbread CM7. I figured this would save some of you some time
Qik - works great on CM6 but it force closes on CM7. Video quality is good and audio is ok good enough to do the job
Tango - works great on CM7 with a mod where you can use front and back cameras. But on CM6 it only detects the back camera. Video quality is good but audio not so good
Fring - works on CM7 with out any mods but the video and audio quality is not so good. On CM6 it only detects the back camera.
Oovoo - is the new kid on the block working great both audio and video on CM6. I didn't test it on CM7 so if someone does let me know this app and Qik is the reason why I went back to CM6 from CM7.
I've tried them all too but unfortunately the battery drain from the apps is really poor... I just uninstalled and will reinstall when a friend wants to video chat.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Battery life on cm6 is really good even with the video chat apps
Tango is still upside down for me on FFC using CM7. Changing manufacturer to Samsung in build.prop didn't fix it . Image is right side up using the back camera.
What about Yahoo? It's apparently the only one that works from phone to PC. Can anyone confirm on our devices?

I have used Qik and Tango and Tango has worked best for me.

where do u get the oovoo app? didnt see it in the market and the website says your device is not supported..
Tango works great for my girl and I using the older version. The updated version has us looking at each other upside down. So if anyone having that problem just revert back to the older version.
Qik I have not tried since I flashed cm. I heard its working on the latest nightly build but have not tried it. I never liked the quality when I used to use it on the stock rom anyways.
Yahoo video chat still gotta be the best though. Video and sound quality are best. Better than qik and tango. And it does not work only from pc to device, it also works from device to device.

the Gingerbread ROMs are the only ones with goofy FFC working with Applications. All FroYo based ROMs should work fairly well. The app developers have no upped their apps to work with Ext4 style ROMs. It has nothing to do with the developers of the ROMs, but has everything to do with the App Developers.

Yes you're right. Is my bad I should've specified that. I meant in general yahoo is best when it comes to video calling. But is the reason I use tango now, because nothing else works properly.

Do a Nandroid back up, then wipe to factory, test netflix on factory settings and see if the problem persists, if it doesnt then it might be specific to cm7
another question, is there a rom/kernel with working netflix for 2.3.3?

The problem with most the gingerbread roms that they are ports and netflix checks the device info, which usually shows from the ported phone. Maybe try the stock gingerbread leak with sense 1.0 or phillyfinest. I had those a while back before the evo came to netflix
for some reason i cant get netflix to go from portrait to landscape can somebody give me a tip ive been looking all around the net and cant find anything thanx

If you don't want to have to change kernels, use FullHDMI. It's $5 from the market, but it will ouput netflix at 720p with SZ kernel on any AOSP rom, CM7 included.
