Hi,
So I Discovered a way to play YouTube videos without the need of being in the youtube app, You can even play when The screen is off
# This method does not require youtube red
# No root is needed
It's actually pretty simple all you need is headphones or earphones with a pause/play Physical button.
1) Plug in the headphones
2) Play any youtube video from the youtube app.
3) Press your home button or switch off your screen, But don't remove youtube from memory.
4) Now all you need to do is click the Physical play button in your headphones.
Idk if it does work on other devices. But it worked on mine
LG G5 (H850) running nougat
It wont work long as its just a bug

is it just me or does it happen to everyone when playing videos through youtube, an if you change hte volume it stops the playing kind of like a mini crash?
anyone else get this?
Hi,
I don't have the issue you mentioned but I seem to remember that when I first got my HD2 in November that the hardware volume button (there's no software volume level in the Youtube app I believe) also worked as a kind of skip feature when I was watching a movie on one of the video players. I don't remember this happeining in Youtube or which video player as I mostly use a stereo Bluetooth headset to control volume levels. I've just tested in but the volume button just operates as volume in all my video apps. This "feature" may hav been lost when I updated to the 1.48 ROM. Or perhaps I just confused myself when I was getting used to my new toy.
Regards.
nah it is a problem as i hardrest and it works..
also when i did press the volume button it didnt show on the screen....
but it does now after i hard reset =-/

Doesn't happen for me mate. Youtube works flawlessly for me, on either 2G, 3G, HSDA or WiFi.
Today I tried the YouTube app for the first time. No issues at first but after closing it, the phone went incredibly slow, Skype didn't load and had to switch it off and on again.
when i press the volume button while playing a vid in youtube, it works as the fast forward and rewind function..
I have seen dozens of vids on the youtube application already, and I've never encountered any of the issues you guys mentioned here. The volume keys work exactly as supposed to.
Btw, I use Rom 1.43, and only installed the 4 official hotfixes, plus some minor tweaks shown in one of the stickies on the forum. I'm not much into ROM updates, unless they are officially released, especially when things are working fine. And I can say my phone has behaved very stably after my first month using it.
Sorry for hijacking this thread but since my question is about the included YouTube-application, I thought I might post it here....
In the HTC Account Manger, I can set my user-name and password for YouTube but whenever I use the YouTube-application, I just get to a normal page. I don't see my favourites and so on. Perhaps the YouTube-application does not support user-login, uploading of videos and so on??
Anyone who can help me out or shread some light?
PS: also Facebook never takes into consideration my user-information inserted in the Accounts Manager. When I launch Facebook, I always must insert my password. Any help?
Thanks!
BTW, to whom it concerns, a Happy New Year!!
Hey guys, i don know if many noticed this or not, after the update to 2.3.3, I can now control the music playback with the help of the headset that comes with the piece.
At first it could only pause or play the music with the click of the button but now the following are possible
press 2 times continuously and it will go to the next track
press 3 times continuously and it will go to the previous track
Now if they could only add a shuffle and repeat standalone buttons on the screen, the music player will be near perfect.
Great find thanks!
I think this was there before 2.3.3?
i personally checked it while running on 2.3.2 and i checked it on my friend's mobile who is running it on 2.3.2 and i can vouch that it was not there in the previous version.
hmmm cool...
Very nice, but my main problem is the continuous repeat without the ability to disable it.

In FM radio, press 2 times continuously and it will go to the next chanel
Hey everyone,
have you guys notice how low is the sound volume on Netflix ,when I try to watch a movie I hardly hear it.
Is there any fix for this ?
Thanks!
Edit : also in YouTube having the same issue.
You need to provide more information: ie. What version of android are you running (4.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.2)? Are you on stock or custom ROM? Has this always happened or just started after ___________ ?
I am on 4.2.2 stock Rom (just rooted) and I have no trouble with the volume with Netflix. (tuning in over vpn)
I'm on the latest 4.2.2 .
I was watching this movie flawless and volume was very low but when im listen to music its not as low as on Netflix.
I just noticed lately.
Thanks

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Netflix since you've updated to 4.2.2?

Hi thanks
Yes I just did and its seems the same ,when I go to that same movie flawless I got the same low volume
Would you be able to try and tell me how you find the volume?
Thank you!
Ummm... Well, there's the trusty volume switches at the top corner of the tablet. Press those left and right until something happens.

There's not a separate volume control hidden inside Netflix.
The volume switches on the tablet control the volume on Netflix. If its all the way up, that's as loud as it will play

Yes thanks
Its not loud enough.
Its a Netflix issue cause everything else is OK.
I have the same issue, happens on a few other various apps too.
Same issue here on my Nexus 7 (2013). I fixed it by loading my music app which also had low output. I used the volume button and turned it up and got a popup from system asking if I want to damage my hearing to tap yes - I'm paraphrasing. I hit yes and all's well now. Hope this helps someone.
Now I can get back to Orange Is The New Black..

If your rooted then you simply must install ViPER4Android. It will change your sound on headphones, speakers and bluetooth. It had such an impact on my N10 speakers that I rarely use earplugs anymore.
Adding volume (gain) is the least it can do. As far as I'm concerned Google should buy the app and add it to stock android.

Even though it sounds like I'm over hyping it, I'm not.
Yesterday when I cast a Netflix stream to Chromecast, I noticed that a pause/play card appeared on my watch. There's also a second screen to the right with volume controls. I don't know which app is doing that, but while the volume controls work, the play/pause button doesn't. Has anyone else seen this with Netflix, Chromecast, and Wear?

Yup, same here, exactly. Nexus 5, Moto 360, all up-to-date.
I think it's a Chromecast/Android wear interaction problem. I have the same problem using HuluPlus app, Moto X 1st gen phone, and LG G watch.

To update, the Wear card play/pause works for YouTube and Play Music on the Chromecast, but not with videos casted from Chrome browser
Moto display works but sometimes the description Fades out the playback button still works but the words disappear this happens with media streaming apps such as YouTube using the Chromecast as you can see here but also with Pandora as you can see with Pandora it's quite frustrating because they won't show the song playing. Also Moto display has been lately slow and updating what song is playing as well even after the song ends Moto display will still show the old song playing I have to actually push the unlock button to unlock the screen then Moto display will update
I'm running TruPureX on frankenclark. Any help?

It could be, but before doing anything else check the last 10 pages of your rom's thread to see if any other user has reported the same thing if you don't find anything try reverting your kernel to default settings to see if it solves the problem
