HD version YouTube.apk - myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games

I got this app from my HTC Magic HK Version, it can see youTube HD!! How can i install this apk in Hero Rom~~

I don't know anythink about the YouTube HD app but the basic Youtube app allow to see in "normal quality" and "high quality".
I'm not sure that the HTC Magic is capable of playing 1280x720 video ... on his 480x320 screen.

Copy the *.apk to your sd-card and open the file with ASTRO. ASTRO is a free application that can be found on Market. This application can do much more that just install applications from a file (apk), it's recomended to have this app
Thanks for the file!

Oh damn, I've been waiting for this. I'll give this a try!
Edit: Doesn't work.
I guess wishing for HQ vids over 3G/HSDPA is still a dream... no pun intended =/

This worked flawlessly on my Archos 5 Android, thanks.

is this the same as selecting high quality in the original YouTube application?

The file downloads as a .ZIP archive, therefore, there is no .apk. At least, I could not find it when I unzip the file...

how did you get it working?? I'm having trouble getting it to run in the archos 5 android.
little tutorial maybe...?

are you guys serious? there is an option in the regular youtube app to select a higher quality. so i dont really see the need for this apk??? Im not trying to be mean by any means though. Just saying some people might have been a little misinformed

I think people are wanting to watch the videos in high definition, rather than high quality.

well as someone stated before our devices wont play higher than 430x320 res

anyone knows why i could only chose normal or high quality only when i am on wifi connection but not 3G??

(windows) search "folder options" > '"veiw tab" > make sure "hide extensions for known file types " is UNchecked..... rename "youtube.zip" into "youtube.apk

Does anyone have a youtube.apk that defaults to playing the normal (low) quality version of the video. I want to use it on a Eken tablet pc but it doesnt like the high quality videos freezes on the first frame even though sound continues but low quality setting plays ok

Download the zip
Extract the apk
Put it in your sdk tools folder
open command prompt
Navigate to your sdk tools folder
connect your phone via usb
type in command prompt:
adb remount
adb push YouTube.apk /system/app/YouTube.apk
Voila! It works, atleast these steps worked for me..
// Note: Thats how you get it on your phone..
Still doesnt default to highquality

Watch Youtube on your Wing (actually all WM6 devices)

Ok everyone I know some of you may know about this, and some of you may not, but there is a way to watch Youtube videos on your WM6 device. And no, I'm not talking about the downloading, saving and relaunching way. It works the way it (more or less) should, you click the link and the video plays. Just use these two files that I'm posting for you. Here's all you have to do.
1. If you have a version TCPMP already installed, uninstall it. Then SOFT RESET!!!
2. Install the tcpmp.pocketpc.0.72RC1.cab file
3. Then install the FlashVideoBundle-v1-2.cab file.
4. SOFT RESET
5. Go to youtube and enjoy!
Hope this helps.
Does not work on mine
When trying to play You Tube on my TMO Wing, the windows media player opens and then a box opens with message "Unspecified error".
I get a message about not being able to open the file after I get a warning about a system command that might be harmful to run. It says that the file is not signed with a cleared certificate or that one of the components doesn't exist. It tells me to reinstall the components if the problem continues.
Hmmm, maybe I need to rename some files.
Did a little snooping with the explorer, but could not see any files that could be problematic, like language locked files.

Did you soft reset after installing the 2 cabs? Becuase if done right, Windows Media player wont be the default player for the files.

It might be lagging just because the GPRS/Edge network you're on. Try it using a wi-fi connection, if it still lags, then I would suggest a couple of things:
1. Use the Quick Page Pool changer to change your Page Pool to 6MB to free up some RAM
and/or
2. Use Battery Status to overclock your device.
Good luck!

Better Youtube?

I downloaded the Gingerbread .apk from this forum but Rootexplorer says the install is blocked. So...
1) Is the gingerbread .apk going to give me full screen high quality youtube video? Or will I just get crappy cellphone video?
2) How do I install the .apk...if it is what I was actually looking for, of course.
I have the youtube app that came with autonooter but like I said above, even the HQ setting is bad.
from what I understand, DSP isn't working in gingerbread or honeycomb on the nook as of yet so no HQ video will play until they figure it out.

Wait what?? you downloaded the Gingerbread APK? file... I'm pretty sure that what you have there is the Gingerbread Keyboard Ripped to work on 2.1 and 2.2.......
and right now what you have is the best performing Youtube there is. If you are having issues with quality then its the youtube videos you are watching.....
Also it already does Full Screen... just rotate your device....
To answer your 2nd question, you will need to enable "Non-Market" Apps install. and then either Push the file to your device with ADB, or just put it on a SD card and open it with root explorer or another file explore program.
You can get to the applications settings by going to Nooktools app that came with autonooter, and going to all settings then to applications then you should see the option to enable "non Market installs"

Some confusion there. I pulled the gingerbread youtube apk from a thread around here on youtube that wouldn't run at all, hoping it would work. I downloaded it from my Nook so that must be why its blocked. Either way its not going to help. I'll just wait for an update.
And yes, I have turned it sideways....come on. I meant full screen HD.

Dig around for the file named "signed_YouTube.apk". This will play HQ vids properly on nook color eclair. You can run it from sdcard/system/app. If you get an installation error, open nook color tools and toggle Allow non market apps on and off then try again
Will do. Thanks.
Edit: That was the file i downloaded. I moved it to the sd card root and it installed. Not sure its any different but at least i know im current on the apk. Thanks again.
Sent from my NC using XDA App
Another tip, in YouTube settings set it to start High Quality on mobile. This will default to HQ video when available. Look for videos in HD and tilt to landscape view. The video will take a few moments to buffer and start but then you can skip through it freely.

[Q] Boosting Media Volume

Howdy All!
I'm about to take a trip to Alaska and will be taking my Nook Color along to watch movies during flights. It's running CM7 with the beta .32 kernel. I think it'll be loud enough on the plane (I will be using active noise canceling headphones), but I'd like to know what options there are for boosting volume just in case.
I see that there is a built in DSP Manager and one can simply set it to +10 on each section. Is this the best way to boost volume? I noticed in CM Settings there is a a way to boost attenuation for ringtones, notifications, etc, but nothing for media volume.
Thanks!
I'm using volume + available here.........http://androidaudiohacks.com/home/volume-gingerbread/download
It's been working well for me.
Oh Wow! Volume + is amazing. Thank You.

Glad to help.
Thank you for your recommended.
One thing to note. If you are using headphones, you may think you need to adjust the "Headset Settings" in Volume +. Changing this will do nothing. The "Speaker Settings" will adjust both the built-in speakers as well as any headset you plug into the headset jack.
Thanks!
THanks a lot !
Volume+ is perfect. Thanks so much for the recommendation. It's working great on my Droid phone, too.
How does volume+ compare to DSP Manager which is included in CM7?
This app is GREAT........
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App
DSP manager has superior EQ control IMO but volume + is MEGA GOOD! I had no idea we would ever be able to have an app to do that. Now I don't have to re encode all my low volume videos. I tried running both together but they crash each other.
Can't wait to give this app a try. I just had my first long trip on a plane with my nook and with noise canceling headphones the volume was just about right. Although at times I could have used one or two more volume nudges up.
I have got to be missing something, but when I downloaded the "apk," I got a zipped file containing some files and two folders, and one of the two folders contains a bunch of folders.
How do I install this on my nook color running CM7?

Thanks, but it really is a .zip file. I thought that too until file explorer on my nook wanted to unzip it. Then I went to my PC and unzipped it and that's when I got all the files. It is not an .apk. I checked that out. I'm puzzled. Why would a .zip file be put at the link location for downloading?
Using Opera browser and im also getting a .zip file.
Ok IE browser gave .apk file.
Will this only work for Gingerbread? How about rooted stock 1.1

[MIUI-CM7] [SOLVED] Flash videos fix

I was experiencing broken/green flash videos with MIUI.
At first I set permission to 000 for /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data
This does the trick for some devices, but not for the 2X (at least for mine).
So, instead I set the config.data like this:
DeviceCert=1
HeapSoftLimit=120
HeapHardLimit=150
HwH264=bp:108000,15;mp:108000,15;hp:108000,15;
ProductVer=11.0.1.x
In practice, I changed the fps to 15 and now the videos play fine!
Remember to give again permissions to the file if you have changed them!
It works for every browser, just change this folder in the path: /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins
Awesome!
But for a total noob, how would one go about changing the permissions?
Using ADB, i'd guess?

The easiest way is probably through rootexplorer..
You can change files permissions from ADB shell, or from a terminal emulator on the device by using the command "chmod nnn" where "n" are numbers from 0 to 7.
For example 777 give all permissions to all users, while 000 to nobody (except root).
Or you can simply use a root explorer program on the device
Hey,is it necessary to edit this for each browser?
If yes,I can't find the folder of dolphin browser.
BTW,is it limit the video on 15fps?
I think dolphin folder is something like "mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser"
For the fps I don't think the framerate is limited to 15 fps.
From adobe site:
A frame rate of 30 or 25 fps often overwhelms Flash Player. If the video is recorded at 29.97 or 30 fps, use a frame rate of 15 fps

When i try to edit the config data file with root explorer its blank... There aren't any letters, what am I doing wrong?
Sent from my LG Optimus 2X using Tapatalk
I know it's strange...but through ADB you can see file content...must be some kind of root explorer bug.
Try this: remove all config.data permissions.
Now you can edit the file through root explorer.
Save and set again permissions (give them all if you don't remember).
You're good to go.
Thank you SO MUCH for this fix! Works like a charm now.
Finally in can watch StarCraft 2 streams on Twitch.tv!
Thank you very much!
Videos in stock browser seems to work now!
But I could not activate the trick for Opera Mobile (which is far smoother and usable than stock browser...).
The similar folder in opera should be
/data/data/com.opera.browser/plugins_data/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player
in this folder there are the same directories "#SharedObjects" and "adobe.com" like in stock browser, but there is no "config.data" file.
So I copied the same file here, restarted everything.. butthe videos are still corrupted with opera
I'm sorry to say that probably Opera doesn't support config.data file
I tell you this because in the devices for which revoking permissions to config.data solved the problem, Opera seemed to work!
I've tested this solution so far only for stock browser and Dolphin HD.
No video bug has made it onto stock firmware.
After upgrading to Cyanogenmod 7.1 on Desire Z (g2/vision) and finding iplayer would only play audio I have done pretty much everything in this thread.
The best I managed was a forced downgrade of flash to 10.something and just ignore all the "update available" messages. I still can't play live TV, but recorded programs are okay. Frame rate isn't as high as it could be, but at least it works.
I resigned myself to this and thought about going back to stock or wait for CM9. Given all the problems I had getting notification lights and GPS to work on my "supported" Desire Z with CM7.1 I'm not holding out much hope of CM9 resolving more problems than it causes, so stock was sounding tempting...
Then the other day my other half was offered an Stock OTA gingerbread update for her Desire HD (2.3.5 I think). Guess what, her iplayer doesn't play video now either! Her flash is up to date (11).
Hopefully this is good news for the rest of us, if mainstream firmware isn't working on iplayer then they are going to have to do something about it. I'll make sure she places a suitable 1 star review against the app on the market.
Thank you,it works very well.

[Q] How to recover/open a temp_video?

Yesterday, I was attending the UEFA Europa League Final and I was filming the starting ceremony.
I didn't know that I had a merely 1.6 GB left on my SD card. When the memory was full, the camera app did the unthinkable (FC). I entered a file manager and saw that the video is there under the name temp_video but without any extension.
Can you please tell me how can I recover it?

Thanks for reply i'll keep the files, but there must be a solution (
Various free video conversion software should do the trick. I've had success using the conversion feature of VideoLAN's VLC media player to 'convert' to .mp4; the video is full size, with sound, and at the original quality. The VLC media player could even play the temp_video file as-is, without any conversion...the conversion was only necessary to play with other players/to burn to DVD.
Hope this helps.
Found a utility that does the trick
I had the same problem. Some people claimed vlc would work, but it didn't. So I tried out this tool: http://grauonline.de/cmsimple2_6/en/?Solutions:HD_Video_Repair_Utility
It worked when I gave it a reference video (video shot from the same phone), but it only saves half the video unless you buy the license. After watching the video, I determined that I don't need the second half for the price they ask (29 euros), but at least I got half. If the author would only charge say $5 per video I'd probably buy it. In lieu of that, I simply joined the file together to create one file twice as long and re-ran it. In windows "copy /b file + file combined_file". This worked as a stop-gap, but the sound got really off at the midpoint. So, if you really want it to work right, I'd suggest paying for the license.
Credit to this person for pointing me to the tool.

DId you bought programm and got better result with or without added longer file? Cause for me full version got and maybe thats all there is to get- all ok but video or sound is going at different speed. So just readjust that in video edit programm. Also in options can select to divide files in seperate audio and video files and then combine changing speed only for video in video editing sofware.
Recovering the temp_video file
Dear all,
i know it is odd to response to a "long time ago" post, but i wish that this may help people who are facing similar problem.
I have just tried the app from the Google Play, MP4fix.
It requires the corrupted file, temp_video and a well-recorded file, i am not sure is it better to be a similar length for the well-recorded?
After processing, you can freely play the recovered file or paid to save the file.
Which means you can use another phone to Rexxxx while the phone is pXXXing the video.
However, it is better to pay for the developers who make this app.
VLC Works as of This Writing
I had this problem. Went looking for a solution and found this article mentioning VLC. On a Galaxy Tab A (purchased new in late 2017), VLC was indeed able to play it as-is. Renaming the file with the mp4 extension (no conversion) meant that even the Samsung Video Player could play it. Maybe Samsung improved the readability of the temp files.
I got the fix
I know this is 7 years later, but I just got this problem and got an actual fix for it. Go to your file manager and click on DCIM then on Camera then scroll all the way to the bottom and press and hold on your temp video and press share. Share it to your google drive and then once its on your Google drive, you can download it if you want to back on your device. Worked on my s7, hope it works for yall
