It should play on 1x. It probably just takes an incredibly long time for the video to load up. It takes long enough for me on 3G.

No italia won't play it start load and when it start playing an error pop out saying that the video can't be play and it is only on mobile because on WiFi plays perfect

Video Chat LOL

I was doing some video chat with a friend of mine in CA last night.
She was on a iPhone 4 and I was on my Epic Touch running on 4g here in Columbus. The quality of the front facing camera is insane!! She honestly thought I was using my desktop and HD camera vs her Wifi front facing.
If you are looking to do video conferencing with this phone you CANNOT go wrong. You have an amazing quality video output!
What app were you using?

We were both using Skype
My favorite is oovoo

I'll have to check that one out - Hopefully it's also available for iPhone =)
Honestly, the gtalk video chat works better than anything I've ever used...its not smart enough to scale up quality when on a really good connection, but the performance over 3g is insane. I don't think you could find a better app to use over a 200kb up/down connection lol

I have an issue where it won't play a whole video. At least most of the time. It'll get maybe half way through the video and then it's like the buffering just stopped so there's nothing else to play. Anymore I just open all YouTube links in Dolphin.

i once had the same issue and for youtube to be able to play videos. i had to factory reset it and install calks rom again. hope this helped.

Even after doing this my youtube videos on low quality still take 45 seconds to load and then it still buffers all the way through the video. If I try to load a video in HD, i have to leave it in the same spot and wait about 3-5 mins for it to start playing. Im in phoneix az where there is no 4G, and my 3G is about .40mbps most of the time.

Issues streaming google music over 3g.

So basically I'm having issues streaming music in google music over 3g only. I need my pump up music for my meet!

Have you tried clearing the music cache, or to re-download it from the market?
Odd... It's already clear. I also alreadalready tried a redownload.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
so is it just choppy, or what's the issue?
Its not even that, it just won't play. I attempt to play a song and the application force closes after a few seconds. Interestingly, it works well over wifi.

No, I have it set to stream over mobile data. I turned off "Steam over WiFi only".
It's kind of hard to stream music with Sprint's dial-up 3g speeds.

My speeds are fine. That's not an issue.

Do you flash a lot? I have hit my maximum number of registered devices a couple of times though I don't think it caused the app to fc. I guess you could try going into Google music on a computer and deleting some of the registered devices in settings. But to be honest I'm not sure that's your problem, worth a shot.

Music playback error.

Hello all! Is anyone having any issues with Google play music? I keep getting a payback error, and it's been occurring for a while now. Here's a screen shot of what I mean.

Could it be a weird file format?
Even an MP3 has different encodings and things. MP3 is just a container I believe.
Have you tried using a different player?

Happened to me as well, I chalked it up to sprints terrible network

I don't belive it's the format, I played the same songs on my OG EVO, and my Nexus S, they both played just fine.

Do you get the error on WiFi, CDMA, and LTE? I had a similar issue with a different application except it only did not work on CDMA.

It happens on CDMA I haven't tried it on WIFI. I don't get LTE here yet so I can't test that.

It has happened a couple times on 3g with me. I think it just can't buffer the song day enough.

Maybe for you. I have clear signal where I live, and solid 4G all the way for miles.
2MB/s d/l on a p2p file over 4G is AMAZING.
That's a home network speed.
So is the song you want to play streaming from a NAS box, or is it local?

NAS box. Is there a difference?

I get this error pretty often, and I think only on 3G. Usually if I just restart the song it is fine. There was one song that got messed so that I couldn't skip forward in the song because it had the time all screwed up I think.
Also, big pet peeve! When streaming a song, it stutters. So annoying. Once it plays through and is downloaded it is fine. Guessing this is due to the memory bandwidth limitations since its having to read and write at the same time while who knows what else is accessing the memory as well. Downside of no external sd.. but hoping a custom Rom/kernel with memory tweaks will help!

YouTube 4G Vs Wifi

Simple question. Have anyone else ever noticed that when using 4G network that the quality of their video is significantly lower than that of the Wifi? Our phones are made for handling full HD so why not give it to us at all times unless we ask to get HQ and Not HD? seems a little silly to me. Not thay much of a bother but I'd just like to see my videos in full HD whenever I'm on the go.

Check your youtube app settings. If you want it to load in high quality when on a mobile data network you have to explicitly tell it to do that.
No no I understand that. But watch a video in HQ on YouTube.. Then connect to wifi and watch it in HD. There's a good deal difference in quality. At least to me anyway

You have to use the modded YouTube version by theo0so. That's the only way.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah there's a modded youtube floating around that allows you to watch in HD over 4g. Personally I don't see much of a difference between HD and HQ.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
When on 4g the highest is going to be HQ. But when you're on wifi or LTE It's HD. Or as mentioned you can use the modded YouTube app to always have it on HD regardless of connection.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Ahh! Thanks for the information all of you! I saw a slight decrease in resolution in the videos between HQ and HD and for some reason it bothered me. I'll be downloading this app immediately! Thanks!
