ICS updated Youtube mobile issue. - HTC Sensation

Hey guys, IDK if I'm th only one this happend to but after the ICS updated when i click on a youtube link in the broweser, it takes me to youtube mobile instead of opeing the link fromthe youtube app like it used to. Is this a bug? Is there a fix? Can I force the youtube app to open up by default. It's just a pain b/c youtube in the broweser is rediculously slow vs the native app.

What's the best YouTube downloading app?

I really liked JetVD but it was freezing up my Evo 3D while downloading any YouTube files (the notification bar specifically) and I'm currently using TubeMate.
Are there any others I'm missing?

Yea, that's what I'm using right now.
TubeMate works perfectly for me, but if you insist, there are many other downloading out there in the Market.
But take a look at this, its a modified youtube with download capabilities. Someone add the download button in share video. (I do not own this app, credit goes to the dev I don't know who) uploaded.to/file/7yz54fcy

Try using the latest cm nightly.
it's the rom.... i also had the issue and i still do even with EB 2.3.5 and as well as the cm7 stabled Gb version.... not only with the youtube app but on some of the websites had flash issues where videos were just green lines. so i switched back to EB 2.3.3 stock Gb version. Devs are working as to finding out the problem but still no luck.
I tried the latest nightly 174 and loaded videos instantly this morning.
Will keep trying the Nightly ROMs. Will report back if I encounter the issue again.
Prefer the Youtube app, just faster.
Youtube and G2X usb mount
I am having these two issues first I noticed that phone is no more recognized by windows as usb and now this youtube issue of CM stable 7.1 , I was really liking this CM. If someone is there reading these and can help please help.
thanks
glad to know its not just me and more about the problem
i really hope this gets fixed soon but was it ever stated as an issue before so others could become more aware and hopefully put it in more demand for a fix or something?
Youtube Slow issue found
What I did I uninstalled both adobe flash player and youtube app and using dolphin web browser for youtube. I tried all those videos again through dolphin and got the instant response on my almost 2mega Byte connection. So, I guess I have to live without youtube app.

Well I recently switched from LG Stock Rom to CM7.1 stable on my P990, and have the same issue. I'm glad that its not just me having slow loading of YouTube videos on the phone. Thanks for sharing the information that the nightly build of CM might help solve the issue. How many others have been successful with that build?
I can confirm that recent nightly builds are no longer causing slow loading of videos in YouTube app. I installed CM7.1 #204
I'm happy

Youtube.com full screen don't work.

When I try to watch videos on the desktop version of Youtube my screen goes black and theres no audio. After that the browser stops loading pages but internet works on other apps. So to make the browser work again I need to reboot the tablet.
Anyone know how I can make desktop Youtube work in full screen? I am using stock browser and I have flash installed on my device.
Thanks

I have that problem whenever I try to go full screen on any flash video. You could try using the youtube app. Instead of rebooting your tablet, you could just go to settings->apps->running (or something like that) and force stop the browser. Doesn't fix your issue, but makes it faster to get the browser working again.

From what I'm reading in the reviews for Chrome Beta, it doesn't have flash support. That is why it goes straight to mobile youtube, even though you have it on desktop mode.

Okay. Hope they fix the stock browser so people can watch flash videos.
Where exactly are the links to the other videos? In the description? Because I can see links on video descriptions on youtube mobile, and I'm able to click on them.

The liks are in the video, not the description. The links only shows on desktop version.
The best thing you could do, until they fix full screen, is use dolphin or Opera browsers and use the large player option in youtube also make sure the video is in the highest quality possible and just zoom in until you are comfortable with the screen.
Ok people I got it to work on Opera Mobile app. Someone posted in the transformerforums, that they unnistalled Flash Player and installed it again and it worked. So I tried this, and I got it working on Opera Mobile full screen. At first when I went into full screen the video image didn't show, so I just changed the video quality and booom the image showed

Karbonn A7 browser auto closes

I am using Karbonn A7 which I bought today only.
It is good in all features but I have one problem.
Whenever I am trying to open a page having a video which is not embedded from youtube, the browser automatically closes.
Let me put it in this way, when I opened dailymotion and clicked on a specific video, the page opened but when the video page fully loaded and I clicked on the video to play, then the browser automatically closed.
I tried in both the stock android browser and also with the Dolphin HD browser.
Can anyone please help me to solve this issue?

[Q] A new version of the YouTube app?

I have Windows Mobile 6.5 (The standard rom) but I can't play Youtube videos with the standard app. I just shows a video saying that "Youtube is upgrading to a newer version, which is not supported by this device or app."
Help me please, because I can't find a newer version of Youtube for windows mobile.
There's an appstore right? If so try looking up YouTube and don't do the official YouTube app do another one or try downgrading your YouTube app did this start when it updated

Thanks for that! Have you found anything? 'Cuz I sure haven't.
What about ninjaducks version of opera with flash support, I use to watch youtube vids direct in browser rather than via the htc youtube app.
I have not got anything except a YouTube video downloader you could try an alternative web browser that supports flash player but can't find anything else
