Hi:)

today i face this message when i watching video on Youtube, and i tried to uninstall and reinstall update for Youtube apps, in addition i made wipe cach and reboot my phone but still get same message

Please:crying: any body can help me in this regards

thank you so much :o
[Atrix 4G General] ovitz:
probably there is a limitation for mobile app. You have to install Opera, switch into Desktop mode and try to run this video
[Atrix 4G General] Cusa:
I have the same problem. I think it has to do with YouTube and not with our phones.
[Atrix 4G General] Ferasalsubhi:
It works fine if i go direct to youtube app and play video,But i doesn't work if i am atransferd from twitter or whatsapp and i got that message (it opened but i cannot watch the video): all video from Twitter not working.
[Atrix 4G General] :
If you ever get that message while browsing the website, simply scroll all the way down and click on the "desktop" shortcut. This is launch the video using the YouTube app instead.

[Atrix 4G General] Ferasalsubhi:
Oh thats great:victory:. when i scroll down and click on the 'desktop' it works, but how to make this as default?

Thank you so much:good:
[Atrix 4G General] :
There is no way you can make this action stick.

[Q]How does TW hold up at higher LCD Density?

any notifications pane or dialer issues?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] joshnichols189:
You mean lower?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] junglizste:
Yeah, I meant lower. It looks like it borks it. I'm stuck at samsung boot screen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] djkinetic:
i couldnt get LCD Density Modder to apply a new density, crashes when trying to save it
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] joshnichols189:
Yeah I heard of someone using a lower density that got it to boot but it looked ugly with some settings I believe
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] junglizste:
used rom toolbox. set it for 220. stuck at samsung boot screen.

cleared cache

still stuck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] junglizste:
re-flashing the root-rom fixes it.

all setting and data intact.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Ozark_8125:
Anyone succeed with changing ppi yet? Here we are, screen the size of a planet... and the email size shows what... 12 characters across??? Duh... :confused:

So - it's driving me nuts after running slimics on my SGS at 182ppi and I'm sure stock sgs3 is in the 240 range like most others seem to be.... but the LCD modder pro that I bought isn't good with ICS roms and wasn't sure if someone has already changed their build.prop for a better ppi/dpi (never get those straight...)?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] demarcmj:
The SGSIII ppi is 306

dots per inch is something that is normally discussed with printers, scanners, etc.

pixels per inch is something that is discussed with displays
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Ozark_8125:
Thanks for that - just seems counter-intuitive for some reason that when you lower the pixels per inch that your display gets smaller. I'd love to get a better ppi for the phone though, lots more use could be made out of that football field sized screen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] knldge:
This phone does not deal too well with lower ppi settings. Used LCD Density Changer and got stuck at boot. Had to restore to CWM backup and tried again with different settings to no avail.

Used LCD Resolution to try lower resolutions without the reboot effect and it looks like crap. I could not get past the bloated numbers on my pin lock, let alone look at the monstrosity for the icons on the screen. My HTC EVO (+ dialer fix) does 161 without any issues and makes such good use of the smaller screen.

Was hoping to get something better with the larger screen in the S3. Hoping that someone finds the trick to this phone!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Ozark_8125:
The one poster above used from toolbox, which is what I saw as a recommendation for ICS roms but looks like it failed for him.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] bdbx18:
I used Rom Toolbox to change the LCD res on the same day I rooted. I went from 320 to the 200 I was on my SR, then to 220, to 260 and increasing back up as I thought it was way too small. At some point I couldn't get back to 320 anymore as the max on the slider is the current res. So I had to reflash the rooted img to reset it back.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] pkd600:
I'm a little confused here. LCD panels should almost always be left at their native resolution. Why are we trying to adjust the pixels?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dstruct2k:
This isn't adjusting the screen resolution, it's changing the reported DPI so apps draw their stuff smaller to fit on the "lower resolution" screen. The actual display resolution never changes.

The reason the

lower

DPI settings cause an

increase

in perceived screen space is because all the apps (system or otherwise) believe the display to be of a lower density, so they draw smaller text/buttons/images/etc to fit on (what they think is) a smaller screen. The display is still being driven at its native 1280x720.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnyn93:
Hey guys, I'm wondering whether any of you are curious about the nexus 7 as I am. I want to buy one of these but don't know how google are selling such a high end device for a low price of $200. Does anyone feel there will be any hidden facts about it? It seems too good to be true.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobp:
You have to buy the other three cores separately for $150 extra.

More seriously, you seem like a patient guy, so wait three weeks and the user reviews will pop up all over the place.

Right now, the most worrisome observation seems to be the lack of sd card, and this.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
they cut the cost down by taking out the rear camera, sd slot, and MHL/HDMI out.

sd slot can be fixed with root and an OTG cable, but if your fine with losing the other two, then yes it's worth it for the price.

i preorderd a 16GB one and even though i'm really upset at the lack of MHL/HDMI, i'm just gonna have to deal with it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hashibahoohaa:
Those who have used Nexus devices in the past, they probably knew there will be no SD card (Besides if you go with the 16gb model, you should have plenty!). I am yet to read any post which warrants a need for expandable memory.

I suspect a lemon (GOOG will replace the device). AnandTech of all reviewers would have caught this if really happening
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobp:
Knowing it doesn't make the sting any better. In either case, that is something to watch out for.

It varies depending on usage, of course, but here's mine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonnyn93:
Yes, 16gb should be enough for me. And also I agree that the issue with screen flicker will be fixed if that certain model isn't a fluke. I am really excited to see this device if it's as good as claimed. I'll order mine now then. Hope everyone else enjoys theirs.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hashibahoohaa:
I think its pure FUD. Having a pure Google experience on a GOOG branded device is *huge* - really no use of nit picking on small "good to have" items none of which are a real deal breakers (I for one really don't think expandable memory is an issue at all, HDMI may be). Being early adopters of anything GOOG strives to achieve is the real deal - GOOG leads from the front the open handset alliance, having a device running an open source software while collaborating with so many device partners is huge - As Linus pointed out, we will be in an amazing state of the world 4-5 years down the line with Android and hopefully we would have cleaned up all the stubborn device partners.

Been there, done that, I have so many unused micro SD lying around. Mostly use expandable storage as a backup solution, mirroring what I need from a neatly maintained catalogue on which ever device I need (unless you want to lug around your complete collection, 75% of which you will never listen - or for that matter will have ever the time to listen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobp:
You mean fear, uncertainty and doubt that you'll run out of space? Like I constantly get close to doing? Yeah, got that.

This is true, but the problem is: you don't know which is the 75% beforehand!

You sound like you have a very large collection, that requires multiple sd cards to even fit in. I don't need quite that much. But the fact remains that 16GB is still not enough for all the 1GB games, music, and videos.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mandeep1803:
Here is a review: http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/nexus-7-review/

Looks like its worth it. Just pre-ordered my 16GB
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cubanluke88:
Omitting the sd slot was not a cost related decision, at least not directly.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
probably true. stupid decision regardless.

The anandtech review says that the nexus 7 has OTG support, so I just ordered this OTG cable. Its only

$4 .00 and ships fast. If you're in the UK search OTG on eBay and you'll find a cheap cable that ships to the UK, this one is in the US though. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-O...Accessories&hash=item43b051fc2e#ht_4080wt_689

[Nexus 7 Accessories] Outrager:
Plug in a keyboard and/or mouse for faster typing and a mouse pointer.

Anandtech http://www.anandtech.com/show/6054/google-nexus-7-mini-review has updated their mini-review to say that "Unfortunately I found out that mounting USB storage will not be supported natively. In addition MHL is not supported."
[Nexus 7 Accessories] yerand:
Well hopefully one of the devs can fix it :banghead:
[Nexus 7 Accessories] lanwarrior:
Why not use Bluetooth keyboard and mouse? I used these on my Galaxy Tab 7 plus.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] moe6:
Can be useful if you're suddenly stuck up ****creek and only have USB devices around you :P.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] darkamikaze:
Is there any USB OTGs that look just like a small USB dongle and you can put microSD cards in there instead of USBs?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] t-readyroc:
This may be along the lines of what you're looking for. Just pop it in the cable in the OP.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] zZDave_Stud:
Actually the devs don't need to fix anything, all you need to do is root the device and bam, you can mount an OTG USB device. :) That's what I'm gonna do!

[Nexus 7 Accessories] nutley:
Is there such a thing as dual USB otg cable, Micro USB to dual female USB? I figure the tablet could charge whilst using external storage that way
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] joytest:
The mediapad is a very under-appreciated device. I considered waiting for the Nexus 7 before deciding on a mediapad. Apart from the CPU, specs are similar and it has rear camera, microsd and 3G. Sure beats N7 anytime in my book.

Anyway, I also own a GNote, and felt that mediapad lacks a good note taking app.

I was reading the NotesMobile app thread on GNote forums, and decided to try it on the mediapad.

I'm very happy to say that it is working wonderfully with v1.1.24 of the app.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] silentdoh:
In short, I have a US Galaxy 4.0 Player, and have been enjoying it immensely, I've messed around with a few roms and kernels, and thought I'd try out the newest version of Han's Ethereal rom, version 2.1, with the TerraSilent 1.3.5 kernel. I heard it would take a long time to boot the first time, between 10 and 15 minutes, and that it would appear like it's bootlooping when it actually is not. Unfortunately, it ha been doing this for close to an hour now, making me think there actually is a problem. Has anyone ever experienced this huge amount of boot up time before?

(Also, I changed the filesystem to EXT4, as per Han's instructions, but I heard going back into CWM under the TerraSilent 1.3.5 messes with that, would it have anything to do with it?)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] abtekk:
The filesystem mix up could definitely be the issue. You're best just flashing and booting. If possible, just stick to RFS. I think EXT4 just makes things too messy.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Nnn Noob:
Your not alone on this one. I didn't change the file system, installed the same rom w/ the same kernel, and it's still looping :(
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
I have put a new version (2.2) that should fix the bootlooping issues (or at least help them). How many apps to each of you have? Sometimes you have to pull the battery to get it to finish booting up properly. The EXT4 filesystem should have nothing to do with it bootlooping on the bootlogo, if that was an issue, it should be looping on the bootloader (the splash screen you see before it starts booting).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] silentdoh:
Interesting, because once I went back to stock with the RFS filesystem and reflashed the same rom, it went just fine, booted in just over a minute. When I was trying to boot before, I had perhaps a couple dozen apps, so I thought that was unlikely to be the cause. But yeah, did the whole deal with the battery pull/reboot a couple times and still no luck. But once I went back to stock before I flashed it was no problem. I'm going to be flashing 2.2 soon, when I didn't mess with the filesystem, if everything goes smoothly, then I think that might be our culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
I have found out that if you wipe cache/dalvik, sometimes it will get stuck in a bootloop. If you head into recovery after that happens, and wipe cache/dalvik from there (again if need be), then hit fix permissions (might be necessary), it should boot just fine. I would also hold off until 1.3, as I am releasing it today, and it is finally stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] thirdeye73:
Am I bootlooping?

I downloaded the latest (v2.4) Ethereal ROM and flashed it, and I think I may have gotten myself into a boot loop. Either that or I'm just impatient.

I'm currently running Klin's Klassic R5, rooted. Never messed with the file system.

Here's what I did:

1) Reboot to Recovery. Wipe cache and Dalvik.

2) Reboot to Download, flash the tar file with Odin. (Did not check PIT). All threads completed.

3) Device rebooted, I get Samsung logo (with Steve's Kernel icon at the bottom), then it displays "ANDROID" and the screen sleeps, and occasionally comes back on for a few seconds. This continues for close to an hour.

4) I found this thread. Pulled battery, wiped cache and Dalvik again, fixed permissions, rebooted.

5) Same results as #3.

I did make a nandroid backup before starting this. Should I restore it and re-flash?

Thanks,

Scott
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] thirdeye73:
Fixed?

I am back up and running. Flashed TerraSilent kernel and got my device back up. I tried restoring from my nandroid backup and that made my bootloop worse--left me in a samsung logo bootloop. I'd love to know why the nandroid restore didn't work, if anyone has any ideas what I might've done wrong.

Tried flashing Ethereal again, no problems this time. Only weird thing is Holo Launcher kept force closing, had to uninstall it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MyronJ906:
Whoa guys, has anyone tried this?

It is called LMT Launcher, it allows you to take several gestures and then use them for various things (you choose!) throughout Android. This includes launching apps, switching to previous or next apps, bringing up menu or search, etc.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1330150

I haven't seen any discussion about it around here, but I could have just missed it.

I installed it today and found that it does in fact work on our Evita. I am using Input Device 2 and have had very little trouble so far. I am still not sure how to get the pie menu to come up (I admittedly didn't do much searching)

But I felt like this was worth sharing for anyone else that might be interested but does not necessarily check the Android general development section.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] oksimoron:
Thanks installed it and it's running well. It's a little slow opening apps but I can live with that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MyronJ906:
Yeah, I would have to agree after trying it for a bit. I'm sure it will get better over time though. More interesting to play with anything. There's a slight delay after gestures in general. I wonder if it is programmed that way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] oksimoron:

[HTC EVO 3D] DeaddeamoN:
i was trying to update to kingcobra rom didnt back anything up it flashed successfully but now my phone is stuck at the boot up screen any help what to do???

:p
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Did you wipe before you flashed ? A lot of things could cause that.
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
Ah, you're S-on, correct?

Please read the thread for the ROM before you flash it.

If you're flashing that particular ROM and you're S-On, you must follow this to flash the boot.img.

Flashing the kernel using fastboot:

Reboot your phone into "fastboot" mode using the "Booting into Fastboot Mode" instructions

Connect the phone to the computer using the USB cable

Download this kernel to a folder on your computer (eg: c:\boot.img)

Flash the kernel using the command: "fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img"

Reboot your phone with the command "fastboot reboot"

A number or two, no matter what I try to do, will go right to voice mail. I have even deleted the whole contact from my address book and it still wont come up. I can call from that line and it will go right to voice mail, test another number and see it ring, then go back to the original and it goes straight to voice mail.

What could cause this? Is there another blacklist setting I dont know about?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] MDavisiw:
I have been away form the android development for a while now as it didnt have the ability to view movies in it nor was there a tv-out. I was wondering if any of the more recent builds have addressed this? I am having a heck of a time finding it via thread search.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Nope, I don't think anyone got TV out working. There were always bigger fish to fry, and with the userbase not really clamoring for it... No dev ever worked on it.

All our code is open source, so anyone can pickup where we left off. I'd say the project is pretty much done tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] CodaHighland:
Wait, the Rhodium has TV-Out hardware? I didn't even know it could do that in WinMo! That's... actually kinda cool, although with as dinky as its CPU is I'm not sure just how useful it would be anyway -- who wants to play a 240p YouTube video on a big TV?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
It requires an additional dongle, which should have been provided if you got the phone brand new.

I've never used it - I can't imagine videos are a pleasant thing. Perhaps a presentation or pic slideshow would be cool tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
I have used it and it is actually quite awesome! I have watched full size divx movies using TCPMP/Core both at home on 46" HD (just to test it) and at various hotels/resorts (cause I always have some new movies ready anytime I fly) and the quality is perfect! To my eye the rhods screen and the attached monitor are pixel for pixel identical. HQ youtube looks fantastic, the same as my HTPC playing youtube in 480p. Haven't tried powerpoint yet but the picture slideshow is kinda cool too.

This is just another reason that I love haret/SD builds from XDAndroid. This is a function that I do not use 99% of the time but it IS there when I need it. That and offline GPS are the 2 big ones that keep me attached to WM (and my BT ODBII scanner I guess, but I have a feeling I COULD get this rockin' in android...if I wanted to put in the time;) )

EDIT: LOL. ODBII = OBDII... Every damn time!! I blame Old Dirty Bastard
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Pixel for pixel, gawd I hope not. 480x800 on an HD screen would probably look AWFUL.

Does it at least put it in a respectable aspect ratio...?

Really surprised anyone actually uses this, haha. I guess some dev can still pick it up? Has anyone even tried the TV Out in Android? Seriously doubt it works, just curious.
