Youtube Widget for T-mobile HD2

Hi,
I've used the search feature but not found much to help.
I've just got hold of a HD2 on T-mobile but it looks as though they've removed the youtube app from the phone.
Any ideas how I can get it back or get another youtube widget for the phone?
Thanks

I second that! Can anyone strip it from the original ROM?

Ever tried google?
Here you go. Try if it works for you:

You sir, are a real star thank you so much. this is exactly the version I wanted, as the m.youtube/app version is very basic apart from the selection screen scrolling which is cool.

Good man

Thanks for the download link. I have been wondering how I could get the app on my phone. One thing though, when you into data services and try to login to the YouTube app it's just saying "connection error"
I've tried WiFi and through TMOB, both connections say the same.. Any idea's? I would like to login so I can see all my subscriptions etc.

you need to phone t-mobile customer services. they treat youtube as an over-18 website and is hence restricted. phone them up and request they enable access - i think theyll ask your date of birth, if u 18 or over, then they will enable access.

That's mad. Surely they know I'm over 18, I just upgraded my contract with them when you have to over 18 for...
That's for the tip.

Just logged on to my T-mobile account and content log is removed.

I installed this on my tmobile (UK) HD2 and it stopped videos from playing! When I uninstalled it, they started working again. Any ideas how to fix this?

gents gents relax.what you need to do is go to m.google.com/youtube by using the internet explorer on your phone (will not work with opera or skyfire). after installation you should now have the working youtube app and the ability to watch your mp4s via the sense video player
alternatively you can update to a new official or cooked rom via hspl. I was like you guys until a few weeks ago and trust me once I started flashing my phone I've never looked back

The application installs and starts but no movies can be played. Not sure which features DO work. It looks awesome though!

Just tried it and it works. Open my queue and played a movie. Finally...

Gets further than any other netflix release but just a black screen when playing. I'm sure it's not far off. DX liberty. 5

Well, I'm sure tegra2 devices won't be too far behind. All of the devices that are supported have similar processors. The tegra2 is much better, but different. I'm sure netflix is just making sure that there is a quality user experience before releasing it.

It plays on the TF101? Strange. It told me it's not compatible with my device... Maybe it's the firewall at work that keeps messing it up? But others also reported it's only a black screen. Why the differences? I'm rooted and running PRIME! 1.2

Who if the author? I'm looking through the market and i see netflix but they don't seem real... Where is the official application

The way I understand is this is a hardware issue. When they initially announced it for Android, they claimed to only be working with Qualcomm in order to prevent piracy of content. I haven't checked to see if they've expanded beyond that just yet though...so this could be entirely invalid and be a mere software thing

If this is the same app that was leaked off an LG phone a couple of monts ago, the problem is DRM. The app i looking for a DRM file that's not located on the device.

I downloaded the new client from the Xoom forum and it's working fine for me. Had to uninstall the old one first but just watched a Deadliest Warrior with no problems.

I read that all Netflix video performance enhancers are bogus. What's different about this one?

Ya they dont do anything special i have never seen any change so i just run the stock app as now that it works fine on almost everything no reason to hack someones app as it can only piss off the people who did all the work to make it in the first place but thats just my thoughts

Can anyone who lives in Canada tell me if they can get streaming on their Transformer?
I get this little popup:
This device cannot instantly stream from Netflix in your area. Visit ca.netflix.com/NRD to see a full list of devices that instantly stream from Netflix.
Weird thing is I see people using Netflix all over Calgary.
Edit: Nevermind
To get netflix working do this:
1) Make sure you are updated to 8.6.5.9
2) Make sure you download the latest netflix package here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07...st-phones-too/
3) Install netflix from the apk BUT DO NOT LOGIN YET (If you have already please clear the applications data.)
5) Sign up here: http://www.vpnreactor.com
6) Go on your tansformer and setup the VPN in wireless and network settings. (Pretty straightforward username password and url.)
7) Connect to the VPN
8) Login to Netflix
9) Pick any video and let it play for 15 seconds
10) Disconnect VPN
11) Reboot yout Transformer
12) Use Netflix without VPN

Didnt get to test it too much, but the one difference for me was the red Netflix startup logo.
Before, it was stretched and looked a little "chunky" (almost as if in safe mode)
Now, the "Netflix" Letters are smaller and sharper.
Ill have to try other videos, but was streaming Prison Break episode and fast forwarded/rewinded, and the buffering time was quick.
Before, it seemed to take longer.
btw. installed the first link

Netflix 1.4.0 working on my non-rooted Transformer
I was able to download, install and use Netflix (1.4.0 build) today on my Eee Pad Transformer.
My Transformer is "NOT-rooted".
My Transformer is updated to Honeycomb 3.2 version.
The only issue I have noticed is that "Search" is not working, the Search issue has already been mentioned by several others on this site.

Chrome browser hanging/crashing after 2.20 OTA

Title says it all. After installing the OTA, chrome browser hangs after about 30-60 seconds. Tabs can't switch and pages don't load. I have tried wiping the phone and the problem persists.

Go to app manager and clear the data and cache for chrome and see if that works if not try uninstalling the app and reinstall again from the play store

Already tried that. I even went into recovery and did a "clear storage" to reset my phone. Same thing, chrome not working.

Does the stock browser work okay? Just trying to narrow down the problem

Me too, no issues.

I am stock, and not rooted. I would like to hear from someone else in the same boat. I can't imagine it's just me.

I have the same issue. Sites won't refresh, it will just get stuck at about 20% progress. Opening a new tab doesn't work because it's a blank tab and won't even show my favorites. Lastly, it won't let me close a tab because it's stuck in full screen view rather then backing out to the preview tabs.....

I have always wondered why people like Chrome on Android. Chrome on Widows kicks ass, but on Android I find it lacking. The swiping to change tabs is about the only useful feature it has, but the touch zones at the edges of the screen are too narrow to make it unusable, at least with a TPU case. No reading mode, no full screen either. I also have Chrome installed out of curiosity, but am ready to dump it. The ability to transparently see the same tabs on the desktop and phone is just not enough of a benefit for me.

Chrome was rock solid on 1.85, but on 2.20 it freezes every time I open a second tab, requiring a soft reset.

Same issues as the rest of you all but my stock browser is freezing as well but that may have been due to my wifi

I just tried a fresh install of Chrome on my HOX with 2.2 OTA. Never had it installed before, so, there should be no oddities with old files.
I can confirm that when opening a 2nd tab and trying to go to a site, the browser hangs.
Personally, I use ICS browser. Much faster and sleeker than anything else out there, imo.

Same issues here. Haven't found any solution yet. I did find this though:
https://support.google.com/chrome/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs
Under "Site display issues" > "Pages are blank, distorted, or flickering on my HTC..."
Their "workaround" doesn't work for me though. Looks like we might just have to wait for a system update...(if you're on stock that is)

Not sure what the issue is, but I dumped Chrome after being enamored with it. Felt like it was slower, using more battery, and constantly refreshing. Oh, and took up huge amount of resources. Switched back to Opera, playing with Firefox Beta. Much smoother.

I came to this board to see if anyone else was experiencing this! Yes, I am experiencing it too and it sucks, chrome is basically unusable. I have cleared the cache, data, uninstalled, etc.
Unfortunately, I am on stock rom/unrooted (just recently bought it and updated before checking the dev boards, whoops! hopefully some awesome dev figures out 2.20 soon). In the brief time I used 1.85, I did not experience this problem, maybe at&t f***ed it up. hopefully chromium gets an update, or better yet, bring on jelly bean, HTC!

The latest Sept 12 chrome update still does not fix this problem. Dolphin beta and stock browser working good.

Count me in with the issue. Had it on 2 different HTC One XLs.

Pale Moon browser?

I've been playing with this one lately and it seems to work REALLY well.
Basically it's Firefox without all the garbage ......... and it's free !
I heard about it from a friend of mine and he was right on about it.
It is available from the Google Playstore.
Anyone hre try it also ?
Thoughts ?

No one else has tried it yet?

why not use Chrome Dev?

I wanted to try something that WASN'T tainted by Google.
They seem to be good at screwing up their O/S's everytime they bring out a new one.
This debloated version of Firefox seems to work really well and it's not Android.
It's nice to have options.
