I've been using adfree (from bigtincan) but it doesn't remove the video ads.
Is there an app or tweak that I can use so that I can disable all youtube video ads?
thanks in advanced you guys.
Loving the Nexus 5 btw.

Don`t think its possible as the video ads are embedded by Google.

wow if that's the case, I wouldn't mind an older version of the Youtube app then.
ads didn't show up pre kitkat for me.

Try Adaway.

Ads have been put into every version of YouTube for at least a year now. Older versions of the app will stop working eventually, if not already. Suck it up, that's how people on YouTube make a living. It's not a high paying job for most folks, it's how they put food on the table.

Would this work on the Incredible. Its pretty awesome.
should work fine... same resolution. Problem is getting it though, phones not out and you would probally have to root the evo to get it

Nope. I have to hit menu and select high quality then wait for rebuffer I'm always in a good 3G area. Wish there was a setting to watch high quality when available by default.
The Youtube app in my Liquid under 2.1 have an option to play always videos on High Quality, didn't test though since I don't have an unlimited data plan and I use Wifi.

We don't have root yet so system files cannot be rewritten.
Here it is (install as an update to the current app. No root is needed.
Thanks @simms22
Works great thanks! Just opened it with astro and the app manager had the option to upgrade.

Tha kinda worked but now the widget just says 'loading' It links to YouTube though so I guess thats good enough for now.
I had the loading issue also...remove the widget... Go to app management and clear cache uninstall updates... Then reinstall the update and restart... Works fine now with the most viewed videos...

Tried to download on my Incredible but it wouldn't even download in the browser. says the file type cannot be supported on my phone. I have Astro, but its not even downloading the file in the browser.

The official vevo app is now in the market. I just downloaded it and its amazing!!!

What exactly does this app do?
I can't find it. What is it?
Who knows? But it's amazing!!
The wait is over!!! The #1 online destination for music videos is now on your Android phone VEVO lol
Is vevo is **** that is all over youtube music videos

I can't find it in the european market (spanish at least). Can you share the .apk?
Thanks!
Thanks! Too bad there's now video commercials between videos though
For those who don't know what this is:
http://www.vevo.com/
It's like youtube for artists' videos.
Its only for USA i think
Very nice app so far.
Minor annoyance is that there doesn't appear to be a way to default it to HQ. The video has to buffer, then start, then you click HQ, then buffer a little more, then plays.
Maybe they do that so that people who don't know any better just play the video without HQ and they save on the bandwidth?
Can someone post the .apk? I am in the US, but since I am using a Brasil Milestone2 I do not see this application in the market. If this is a paid app then nevermind. I am not trying to pirate anything, just would like to try this out.
it seems it was removed from market as fast as it was posted
You sure? Still listed on appbrain

This app didn't work well for me at all. It likes to force close, alot. Like someone already said if you wunna watch in hd you hafta wait for it to buffer and then hit the "hd" button and then wait for it to restart buffering and then you can watch. But even once the hd video was loaded I wasint impressed, it still didn't look very good on my phone. I'm using a droid X 2.2.1

VEVO apk in case you cant download from market. posting only cus its free!
There's a pretty nice app on the market called Androidvideo Recharged. It has many tv shows to stream to Android. It doesn't use flash, so it is compatible on more devices than most streaming apps.
Cheers , but I do prefer Icestream.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.stonyx.icestream
It can't be beaten, and its free.
Thanks for your suggestion though.
Regards
IceStream uses flash though, and just links to other sources on the internet that you can go directly to on your browser.. They can be removed at any time also. Androidvideo has their own servers and can ensure that videos won't randomly be removed.

Don't forget to tell everyone that the app is free but you have to pay to watch anything.
I prefer SPB TV, it has not that many channels, but enough for me, and it's free.

You don't have to pay to watch anything. What are you talking about. They do have a premium membership but they also have free videos. If your not smart enough to figure that out, maybe you.shouldn't be on XDA.

Ice stream isn't even on the market anymore and none of the links on my version of the app work anymore nor have they for weeks. Least with androidvideo, when they have a server problem, they have their videos back up within days, not weeks.

So I have a cheap budget 5 in tablet. It handles youtube mobile video very well, but it has a wonderful time trying to actually load videos in the youtube apk. So does anyone have a older version? Maybe like android 1.6 old since maybe it can work with that.

Downloading my Apps from places other than the Play Store, has opened my eyes to many different Apps with premium services available such as YouTube Premium via Vanced etc
Are there any that you guys are using that you can recommend?

It's basically the paid version of YouTube for free with some aesthetic changes! It was the best work around for me, and I've even put it on my older GMS stuff too!
only really know of vanced but its class lol
I use vanced on my mate 20 pro and chatting to one of the creators adverts are going to be more prominent the installation is simple and configuring micro G gives you all the notifications . Watching you tube without adverts is definitely worth the hassle

Free version of premium. Also meaning that you can use it as an app rather than through the browser, meaning you do not have to side load GMS.
