High Quality in Youtube ALWAYS ON? - Desire General

Is there any way?

Mine plays HQ over WiFi all the time, guess it changes when on mobile network

Somebody posted an APK from a different phone which lets you set HQ as default.
I think this is it:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685616

Can i install the apk without root or not? Sorry for the newb question.

You need to enable USB debugging in Settings > Applications > Development
i have a parsing error too
where should i save the .apk?
Worked for me. Have not tried it with anyone yet but it shows that I'm video ready. You don't need wifi for this to work right? It will work with video over 3g too right..?
UPDATE: Just tried it and works perfectly on SGS2 but I guess you do need WIFI for it to work. My friend tried to chat with me while I was on HSPA and he can see that I was video ready but it just rang once on his end and just a google talk bubble on my end saying he tried to video me but I was not on wifi to receive. Is this normal? Does anyone have it working on 3g (HSPA) too? Also, I noticed on paul's page he said it can be un-installed. If you un-install it, will you be back to the original googoe chat that was baked into the SGS2..?
great work !!!!

HBO Go.....sound but no video

Loving my GS2E4GT, but with HBO Go I get sound but no video. Anyone out there find a cure or workaround?
Thank in advance!

You will get audio only if you don't have strong enough bandwidth. Did you try it on Wifi yet?

Same issue here and yes I've tried with wifi.
HBO and MAX Go
Same issue here.
On WiFi on 22Mbps, still didn't get anything but audio. The screen was completely black. I thought there was an error with the app and that it got locked. Tried unlocking, but went back to a black screen (locked), then hit the lock button again and went to the locking screen.
Tried HBO Go and MAX Go on both 3G and WiFi yesterday. Black screen with audio. Just tried on 4G and can confirm it didn't work either; same black screen with audio only. Getting 5Mbps right now on 4G.
As a comment to reference, up till saturday morning, when I got the E4gT, the Evo3D was having no problem showing these videos. From time to time I would get the odd "sound only" message, but it would be gone within seconds and the video would come back up.
With people commenting about data issues, others with radio issues, etc. makes me wonder if it's hardware and not software. Maybe a new kernel fixes it, but I haven't tried that yet.
Is there anybody able to get video on HBO Go and MAX Go at the moment? Could you provide as to whether you're using stock kernel or one of the rooted kernels; if rooted, which method, and ultimately, what type of connection are you using and what type of bandwidth do you have?
Hope we can shed some light into the issue.
If you check the comments with the app, all E4GT users are having this issue.

I checked in google and found this:

Not sure I can post links so copy/paste.
Down low in the page:
Art Russ - +Brad DeFruiter >> Current Widget doesn't work due to missing drivers/capabilities.
Take it as a grain of salt. Wonder if it could be a library missing, and if so, if one could be grabbed from a different device and pasted into the appropriate sys folder on the E4GT. Would need root, but still...
As of 10/12/2011, version 1.2 has video working for E4GT. If any issues, try removing the app from your phone and reinstalling from the market.
So far I've had no issues, and video finally works!
Gonna catch up on boardwalk empire today yay

Stock Browser (non chrome)

Ok so finally got it set up on zl. Followed steps from link below and works. You need to be rooted.
1. You need to remove chrome.Apk and browserproviderproxy.Apk from system/app using root explorer.
2. Copy the browser.apk to the using root explorer to the system/app and set permission to rw-r-r.
3. Last reboot phone and browser should now be installed.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187973
I've done this using instructions in the Z forum using root explorer. What's interesting is that the ftf from the US posted in the development forum comes with both Browser and Chrome built in. Wished it came with all the ftfs as I prefer Browser.
Take the browser apk from the us firmware

Yup, I changed it to rw--r--r like suggested but still not working. I checked for browserproxyprovider.odex but there isn't any, just the browserproxyprovider.apk
Has anyone gotten this to work? I wish I had my zl all ready so I can test...
Most likely won't work unless someone messes with the apk

Anyone got this working without root?
I am not at all enamored with Chrome and I did not have default browser on my C6506 at purchase.
Seems contradictory that Google won't simply provide essentially their own stock browser in the market.

There is NOT going to be ANY solution without rooting, unless you get a 3rd party browser from the market place..
This is Awesome! Anyway to get it Tabbed? like Tabbed at the top? I was able to do that with Muti DPI on my Note 2.
I'm not sure what your asking I had note 2 also and this stock browser is not exactly like the one on note 2 I wish it was.

Whoow I want this!! I was doubting between the HTC One and Xperia ZL...
The HTC One comes with a perfect stock browser; Flash, text reflow en quick controls.
The Xperia ZL comes with Google Chrome, which I hate, but this looks very, very nice!
Whatabout Flash? Text reflow? If you want and have time, can you make a little vid? :angel:
Flash and textreflow both work.

In this movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcItXcUgiEs&feature=youtu.be
of a Canadian user of a 6506 model of the Xperia ZL, you see 'browser' at 00:50:
So I've asked which browser it was:
Which browser is 'browser' that you've showed?
From Google Play? Otherwise a link to an .apk? Thanks for the video!
He answered:
Its the stock browser that comes on the phone - The AOSP Browser - Sony includes it on the Phone.
I've asked:
Wait, whut... :s
On the XDA-forum there is said that it isn't...
Do you have a branded version of the 6506? Provider-software?
Thanks!
Answer:
Phone is completely stock
It's Bell Mobility Version in Canada - Model C6506 - Bought without contract.
To be honest, Chrome works better on this phone than my Note II or any other phone I've owned in the past -
so I usually use it. I made this video the day I got the phone so I hadn't configured or used it more than 4-5 hours.
I'm sure any AOSP apk would work though - XDA should have it.
I WANT IT! No sh#t with rooting, just an .apk Somebody that can provide it? :fingers-crossed::victory:

[Q] Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 On screen controls, Netflix, BBC iPlayer

There is definitely an issue with the on screen controls and Netflix, BBC iPlayer, TV Anywhere (Virgin) etc
Many people have complained on Netflix's Play Store page by giving 1 star and saying since the Netflix update you are not able to pause, scroll forward or back as the on screen controls appear for a split second and then disappear, but it isn't Netflix's fault as the same issue exists with BBC iPlayer (downloaded content playing back only - not streaming) and Virgin's TV Anywhere.
This only began after the OTA upgrade to 4.4.2.
Apart from my feelings that the battery is draining quicker, the navigation is not as fluid and the native video player sound is not as good, this update has proved to be a failure in my view.
I read that the bootloader was locked so custom rom is out of the question at the moment (I think, not that clued up on such issues) - but I wouldn't want to root anyway as it renders Sky Go and other apps useless.
Can someone shed some light as to what is wrong and how to fix?
No problem with BBC I Player. Don't use the other two. I'm rooted and been able to get rid of some of the Samsung junk. Can't run apk's as reported in another thread. Have you a link to the bootloader issue?

So if you download a programme on iPlayer and watch you are able to pause while watching?
The thread I saw the locked bootloader info was here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788770 - but I am not sure if this is referencing a different rom?
Sorry for delay in replying. Yes I can pause. I'm also note on CM11 4.4.4. And extremely happy

Here is the android.policy.jar from my deodexed rom. It has the fix built in, but you will need be using deodexed rom for it to work.
