Develop Bugs

youtube constantly failing to play.

when froyo ota was first released I installed it and everything was fine but I kept having problems with youtube. some videos would play but most would say sorry this video cannot be played. I did a factory reset and still got the same problem. the only change i have done is the move any apps2sd mid. could this be the cause. as anyone else experienced this?

Same thing here. I don't think it's anything you have done, the app just sucks. I had a HTC Hero with 1.5 with this problem. Then, upgraded to 2.1 and the problem was gone. Now, with HTC Desire I'm having the same problem again with 2.2. The videos usually start playing if you keep hitting 'play' for a few times, but they might also stop while playing.. Very annoying.
I wonder how widespread this problem is?

Looks like almost everybody with 2.2 have this problem (including me)

yeah me too

Same here...

has anyone tried using a 2.1 youtube.apk on a 2.2 rom?

Try turning off HQ. Anything I wanted to watch on youtube kept throwing up the same error but once I turned off HQ it worked fine for me.

At least its not just me then. Disabling high quality is no good to me. It helps to play the video but it looks and sounds a lot worse.
I hope they fix this somehow.

Yup, HQ disabled fixes this, but its not very usable solution...

I would try if you tell me where to get it.

I have the same problem and after observing it it seems it tends to happen when the data connection is not so good.sometimes my wifi drops and I can see when it happens looking at the lights on the modem.when I am on gprs videos don't play generally when the signal bars go down.

My connection is perfect. But it still happens so I'm certain its the app.

I dont think that its because of the connection too. In my case it always happens at the near end of a video that it stops playing and an error appears.

Is it just me or have this new radio rom 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 fixed this playback problem? Just flashed it in my LeeDrOiD 2.0a and tested few videos. Not a single fail/errors yet after 10+ randomly selected videos. Can someone test this too?

If I where u I'd wait a few days and let us know how it is. Because when I factory reset my froyo it works fine for a few hours then the problem starts again.

I was already running this rom with 2 older radios, and both had this issue. I'm not saying this new radio fixes it, but I really hope so.
Anyways, I continue testing and will report if there's errors or not.

I flashed the new radio but i still got the problem. Im using the official froyo rom.

HTC desire car mode

Hi. I am currently having an issue with my phone that it keeps going into car mode on its own. I have no idea why this is happening. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a solution?

maybe you could try removing htc car home using adb then reinstalling it

Hi. Thanks for the suggestion. How do I do this?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Hmm maybe theres something wrong with your powerconnector. As i am aware the desire starts the carmode if it detects a certain powersource (i.e. the cardock) at one Pin of its powerconnector. So there might be a hardware issue as well (slight shortcircuit or something similar). Is it mainly happening while connected to your poweradaptor?

Er, I have the latest 2.2 ROM on my stock Desire and I don't have this car panel at all. Where are you getting it from? Are you running a custom rom?

Here you are

That's great, thanks.
So I take it that this isn't on general release and that the app has been ripped from a leaked ROM?

[Q] Signal dropping during calls

Hi guys, got a strange issue here. Whenever I dial a number the phone will ring a few times then the signal bars will jump from whatever they are on to nothing with an x and call will fail. However; the phone will still be ringing on the other persons end, and if I redial then it will jump into the call I tried to make previously. The same could happen again during the call. Strangely, this only seems to happen when I bring the phone up to my ear, if I use hands-free it only happens 1 time out of 10. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm using SuperNova Xtreme ROM, any more info needed?

Same peoblem here with stock... Heard it's a bug with proximity sensor. Does your phone drop the signal when you lock the screen?

Just checked and yes it does! Do you know of a fix?

Unfortunately, I have also read that there is no fix for that bad luck for us, I guess

Well, I've just done a quick Google and found that sometimes simply taking the back off the phone and hoovering everything out can help, as well as blowing/hoovering on the line between the earpiece and the screen. I'll try it out and post my findings.

Hey, I've managed to fix it, but only by flashing with an entirely new ROM/RUU. It's the only thing I could find to fix the issue.

[Q] Can't Play Audio Through HTC a100 Car

Anyone else have issues with the HTC Car StereoClip also known as HTC a100 Car?
I turn it one, pair and connect, set car to auxillary, open music app and get nothing. But other Bluetooth devices work just fine.
Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated!

Looks like there are not many of those...is it really that good? Worth to buy? And for how much did you bought yours? And where you got yours from?
Sorry to answer your question with offtopic questions.
I believe I read somewhere that this works with the note2 with no problems

For what it's worth, I have the HTC car dongle and the note 2 and they work together perfectly.

What the hell am I doing wrong?
Sorry to be such a noob but what are you doing, how do you connect? Are you rooted? With what ROM?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

I am using a stock, unrooted Note 2. Just make sure that you follow the directions of the HTC device and connect. I also use an app from the playstore called A2DP volume. My phone and car bluetooth automatically connect when I get in the car and then I have set up this app to automatically connect to the HTC whenever my car and phone connect. I hope that this makes sense.

This makes no sense. I have tested with multiple stereos (my car and a stereo boombox) and multiple ROMs. Nothing works. I can pair to the A100, the SGN2 detects and connects properly (from what I can tell) but no music from it. When I use the standard cable, the headphone icon appears and music plays just fine. With just the A100 I get not headphone icon and no music playing.
I even went to completely stock ROM with no changes and nothing done to it but my Google account entered.
Strange because I tested the device with my previous HTC phone and it worked flawlessly. Any other thoughts? This makes no sense!!

Sorry, have you tried to reset the HTC dongle?

Try to press and hold ON/OFF button more then 10 seconds. Then A100 will "reset" blink red and turn off.

Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is the main issue

I think the main problem of the streaming audio bluetooth failure is... jelly bean 4.1.2 . hope in future upgrade to 4.2.2 fix all problems
I tried to with 2 different devices:
1) Tablt Asus Transformer Prime TF201 jelly bean 4.1.1 streaming is great :cyclops:
2) Samsung galaxy S II/III jelly bean 4.1.2 no audio output :crying:
Evdidence of this will be when people upgrade their Htc One (other device that have been issues with a100) to Jelly bean 4.2.2
however compliments HTC customer service .....poor...poor....

Hi,
Jelly Bean 4.2.2. does not fixed the problem
I use a HTC One, and I´m really angry about this ****.
Any recomendations maybe?
