YouTube 2.5.16 update

Hello P500 community
Well yesterday I updated my YouTube app to 2.5.16 thinking it was going to be a good update. I was wrong lol... There is a new like and dislike bar which looks nice but now there is no HQ for our devices. So I suggest that you don't update YouTube on 2.3 roms if you would like to have HQ. Just a tip :thumbup:
Edit: added YouTube 2.4.4 apk in case some of you guys updated and want HQ again :laugh:

by enabling this, you will only get HQ on data connectivity (i mean GPRS/EDGE/3G).
If you are using wifi connectivity, then this option wont help you.

Yeah. Kinda worthless. Hopefully people will complain on the market enough.

And on every ICS ROM, I think, but it's useless for us, until we got OMX-codecs

Thanks, I found a way to disable update notifications in Google Play by unchecking 'Notify me about updates to apps or games that I downloaded'. I used this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460861
Also, Jelly Bean allows you to control update notifications on a per app basis:

Finally! But... the new layout is horrible -- I can't seem to find anything anymore. Damnit, YouTube, stop trying to fix what's not broken.

It was broken, and GB had a different UI from ICS, now ICS UI is also on GB and FroYo
Google is apparently not good at making changelogs...

[UPDATE] Album, Walkman & Movies OTA Updates [New Links]

Hi guys,
Today I got OTA updates for the Album and Walkman updates and low and behold, NO MORE LAG! Smooth like butter.
At least within these apps anyway, the system still lags a bit but at least Sony have made a small step to solving our problems.
Hope this helps.
AK.
EDIT 28/07: Today I got an update for the Movies and Video Unlimited apps, so I have added them here too.
Download
(Android 4.2.2 required for Walkman however some people have reported Album working on 4.0 and above. A modded version of the Walkman app to work on 4.1.2 can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43959673&postcount=167)

Changelist:
No more lags!
Quite a few cosmetic changes.
Walkman now supports gapless playback.
Pressing the 'back' navbar button no longer exits the Walkman app.
Album app now plays GIF's.
Movies app plays most recent video in a loop at the top of the main screen.
Anyone notice anything else?

What region are you running on?

Check Update Centre for the latest version numbers, hopefully they should be live for you guys!

Unfortunately there is no update in Update Center Album : 4.0.A.0.8, Walkman 6.1.A.0.2 It must be a major update for this applications.

youtube in scrapbook

Hey guys
I remember there were videos of scrapbook can save youtube staff where you can play directly from scrapbook itself or at least save the link.
However when i try to scrapbook a YouTube from youtube app it only saves an image like a screen shot from the video without even saving the link. Any idea?

Uninstall updates in youtube
Updating the Youtube app to the new version seems to break the functionality, unfortunately.
You'll have to go to Youtube's application info and click "Uninstall updates" to revert back to the Youtube's old version if you want it to work.
It's one of the most interesting features for me as well, so I hope they make it compatible with the new Youtube soon.
Feel free to visit my thread here where I list every gripe I find about the new note: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458416&page=4

Thanks. Will visit the link for sure. Many thanks again for the tip.

Make a dropbox link with just the resized images and I'll make your bootanimation, don't want to download YouTube video and go through the hassle, but if you have the frames I'll do it
