HTC Youtube App Problem!

Hello,
I am really sorry to bother you nice folks around here, but I have a problem.
A friend of mine used the Google Youtube app. He told me it was was an great app and that I should try it.
Because I trusted him, I did.
But if you install the Google Youtube app, it gets rid of your HTC Youtube App.
And we all know wich one is superior!
If I open an video through www.m.youtube.com I still get the same quality and interface as in the HTC Youtube app, so I guess my app is still hidden somewhere! I have searched everywhere on my device, but I could not find a file that redirects to the Youtube app. It's probably gone.
I found this, but is does not work on my device; http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2009/02...wvga-youtube-app-ported-to-vga.html#more-3424
And I can't download and try these cabs; because of restrictions due the fact that I am living in the Netherlands.

Could you guys help me out?

I had the exact same problem as you.
Don't download any youtube apps.
I did and it caused more problems like the registry font tweak and search sort order
stopped working..
So I installed the youtube apps that is flying around the internet.
If you install those, the tweaks font work.
Like you said the original youtube program is stored in
Windows folder, Just create a shortcut of one of those 2 youtube files
in Windows\start menu folder.
And you will have your youtube back in perfect condition.
Now.. my question is.. is there a youtube app that lets you view comments?
The htc one is quite good, but only if it allowed us to view comments..
The Android youtube app were really good at that..
Or is there a way to make opera like the safari on iPhone?
Instead of saying browser needs flash, Iphone just creates the video link
for all youtube apps so the browser triggers the iphone youtube app to handle
those flash youtube videos...
Please tell me if there is something similar on hd2..

Thank you so much! I was looking everywhere on the device! Just overlooked this one

And no, I haven't heard of something like that.
Instead I change the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4OnhnvczTk into
http://www.m.youtube.com/watch?v=z4OnhnvczTk
That's my workaround when i get directed to a youtube link from twitter or windows live.

[Q] Latest Youtube apk

Hello,
For some strange reason, I can't find the Youtube application on the market, whichever ROM I try. I used to get it fine on my HTC Magic but nothing on my HTC HD2.
I can't find Vocal Search either but that one can be found in CM's gapps.zip. No Youtube in that pack unfortunately...
So is there an address or thread that keeps an up-to-date .apk of the Youtube app ?
Thank you very much !

Install market enabler. Then launch market enabler, go to setting list, long press either us t-mobile or us-verizon. A menu will appear, press fake this provider now.
Now you'll be able to find the youtube app on market.

I know about that but I don't really want to install an app to get another app. I wouldn't use market enabler for anything else...

Check your PM.

There's a function called "Apps Un-installing", but then u already know dat.

Hi there. I installed a market enable but I still cannot find a youtube. is a reason because I'm from Serbia or what, i dont know. Please, if someone can give me a hand with this, I would be very happy. I found Maps and Gmail, but Youtube is the most important for me.

Found a solution. I didn't change a network in setings.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

Solution found or ??
Same for me, cant find it in belgium, tried to download market enabler and it doesnt work either :-s
I found an apk file online and it doenst want to open either...Did anyone find another solution to this problem?
Strange that youtube isnt default anyways, but i guess thats one price to pay for having an HD2 on android...still a cool and much better phone with android that f*@king windows. ;-o

If you're from Belgium and go to the android market website on your computer, you'll see you won't be able to install youtube.apk because it's not allowed in our country. Market enabler is an old well-known solution, but I recall Google having removed the separation between market-regio's so Market enabler was no longer required. So why suddenly is there some country-based restrictions again on some apps :/ Even youtube.. I mean I can easily open a brower on my computer in Belgium and just access youtube so I don't understand why it would be forbidden to open it from a smartphone.

that's scary... what's an effective and lite anti-malware software to get for android?

try AVG Antivirus Pro (or Free) from market
Here the website: http://www.droidsecurity.com/

i used the phone for 2 months with the old 2.1 rom and didn't get any malware, with the new i get a malware after less than 10 min

1 month ago,I downloaded a file.I thought thats a music player for android but that was a virus too.It was just renamed to a music player .apk .After I installl it,nothin happed,the app was just a black screen,so I unistall it. After that,I saw that a lot of my video and image files was deleted. Seriously,thats really strange

Install Dr Web for Android and scan for malwares.

Yeah i also get runtime errors in chrome as well, tempted to go back to opera

Was a super simple install process, but I made a quick video anyways:
And if you haven't rooted: Rooting with Gingerbreak (required to install):

Hmm yeterday i tested it with my firend who has a Nexus S the only thing is he could not hear me..i could see him and hear him but he could only see me. Dis anyone else test this and can you confirm your audio works?

I tried to installed it. It says "Installing Google Video Chat" for past 45 mins and nothing is happening. Tired it twice. I have rooted the device. Also made sure the install have Superuser permission. What to do ?

try enabling usb debugging hope it helps

I installed the APK
but when I open the program my arc reboot and erase my contacts and I have to sign in in the market

It deletes your account details, so you have to re-sign back in to Google services/account.
As for contacts they should be backed up on to google contacts and will re-sync back down after you sign back in.

my arc still reboot when I open the prog.
I did it many times

[Q] Launching applications from link

I'm trying to figure out how to get Android to recognize certain links and offer to launch that particular application. For example, when I click on a Wikipedia link in Chrome, I'll get an offer to go to my Wikipedia app. However, when I click on a link that someone has posted in Facebook, like Soundcloud or Youtube, it goes to the mobile website version of either, which is a little frustrating.
Actually, I noticed that when you go to Youtube's mobile page, sometimes, you then get asked about the Youtube app, which makes the double step even more ridiculous.
I was trying to search for this information online but did not come up with anything. Is this a setting I can configure somewhere or what? Thanks.
