Guys.. My youtube does not work normally. I can't play videos.. (it takes 2 minutes and ends up not even playing the video) it just won't. I've downloaded a cab someoneposted that would supposedly change my 3G speed to max and It still does not work. What should be done? should i re-install a rom? thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=135184&d=1228539093 (Download Link) It's a .cab
All Thanks to IRUS. Thank you very much
I read somewhere that if you open an internet connection, PIE, and minimize it and try to use youtube, it will eventually run. Try that. It was somewhere here on this forum. Next time, use search function.

thanks alot, but i've tried that before and it doesn't work.. it just goes "connecting" for a long period of time and my problem seems to be completely different from everyone elses in the previous youtube threads. i mean what is there left to do?
have you tried isolating the problem? Is it your connection, or youtube itself? Can you connect through wifi?

yep i've done it and thats why it kinda worries me. youtube doesn't even work through wifi.. it's obviously a connection problem
and through my normal 3G connection.. videos pop up quick when i search for them, it's the playing them part.. it seems like it idles for 3 minutes and ends up not playing it
well if they are showing up, but just not playing, more then likely its a issue with a registry setting. If it were the connection, you wouldnt be able to search and see the videos to choose. Do you have a reg edit prog?
EDIT: it may be specific to a youtube regedit, or it maybe be a more broader reg entry, does every other aspect of your prog/connections function as expected?

every thing on the application works as expected except for the youtube videos themselves (they wont play.. all i get is connecting.. and then an error at the end). i can edit the registry.. but what needs to be editted?
Here are a few I jotted down from my registry. These probably arent set for optimal performance, but they work for me. Make sure to backup your registry or make a note before you change any settings, in case you need to change them back. All of these values are DWORD vals, so if anything is missing create accordingly. This is one of the folders with youtube values that I found, there were a few more, but this was what i could copy down quickest on notepad. Keep in mind, not all of these settings have a relation to the connection. I just included them so you could check for congruence with yours. By the same token, the FilePath and Proxy Name were left out, because Filepath contained unreadable characters, and Proxyname was empty.

thanks alot NYC kid, you dont know how much i appreciate you taking the time to post all this information. let me donate you a cup of coffee
for the most part, the only difference i see is our DeviceSetting
mine is set at 65552
yours is set to 196624. ill change mine and see what happens. once again thanks
No Luck. Seems It's still the same -.-
anyone have any other ideas? should i change my rom?
Hey I actually have the same issue. I'm currently using ROMeOS² v1.40.1 19974.1.2.8|STABLE.
What I get is, searching for Youtube videos comes up quick. But when I hit to play one it just says "Connecting" for a long while. Then eventually says "Error Connection failed." With an ok button to press.
I also noticed that this happens to videos that usually exceed more than 2 minutes in length. For shorter videos the play time is ok. I just assumed this was normal for everyone and how the technology worked lol.

ah the only videos i've been able to play is in the seconds -.-. anything over a minute wont play. im sure its just some setting issue.. like a number needs to be changed somewhere
I am having the same problem, im wondering if it has something todo with buffering a certein % of the video before playing. Also i tried under wifi and it nothing would work including searching for videos but under everything works just not playing the video. I will look into this and report back

ok so i messed around with the defaultbuffertime and the other buffer and no luck but what i did notice is that for the proxyname that you said was empty is not empty for the fuze or at least not on my fuze. The filepath is "wireless.cingular.com:80" and when i deleted it and launched youtube then closed it and rechecked it came back so my guess is that it is hardcoded into the app which means we need a different version of the youtube app. this is just a guess
ok sooooo hear is the answer, i lowered the buffer and it made no difference until i replaced the youtube.exe and the vofltpd.dll and vomp4fr.dll not sure if the dll files really need to be repalced as i think its the youtube.exe that is the problem but once i replaced those files and open it i launched a 7min clip and it started playing in under 10sec but since the buffer was set at 1 which i think is 1sec i had to pause and wait for it to buffer but it came up right away. so i will make a cab and test to make sure and i will not change the buffer settings to see if it works give me about 10 mins then i will post cab. i just want to make sure it will overwrite
work like a charm i clicked on a 7:33 sec video and i started playing in less than 15 sec please report back to let me know if this is working for everyone else. this fix should only be for fuze owners or who are having the same problem
@ACMilan07 please attached this in first post and change title to fixed once others and yourself have confirmed that it is fixed

Hey irus, thanks for looking into the issue. I downloaded your .cab file but when I went to install it gives me the following error message:

Hey guys!
I developed TalkMyPhone, an open-source app that enables you to control your phone from google talk. It's like android-notifier on steroids, since it brings almost the same features and you don't need wifi/bluetooth enabled.
I can't post links since I'm new here. Google for talkmyphone or look for it on the market.
Developers: I'm open to contributions
Users: please use the issue tracker for suggesting features
I don't have many non-french users since the info did not spread very well outside of french blogs, so I'm posting it here. I hope someone will find it useful and write something about it.

Do you need multiple GTalk accounts in order to talk to it, or can you "talk to yourself" ?
Niice Idea
sweeeet thx
Doesn´t work on my SGS. After trying to to login the app closed. And now i can´t open it again. Even every other app wont start.
Only a restart helped. Uninstalled.
But the idea is interessting. maybe i´ll give a try again later.

The 2 solutions work. Talking to yourself is possible in gmail, but you cannot initiate the conversation, so in this case, best is to use a third party client like pidgin. Otherwise you can set up a second account. Any standard jabber account is possible.
Accounts delivered at jabber.org are *very* easy to get. You don't need to give your email address, you don't need to sign an agreement. You just have to fill a captcha to prove you're human.

Weird. Some unlucky people experiment bugs like this one. I don't know where this comes from, and I try to improve the code. It works 100% of the time for me, so all I can do is look at 'adb logcat' traces users leave on the bugtracker. If you wish to do so, it might improve your chances to see this fixed
giving it a shot
you may try changing your preferences.xml to the attached (just because of english, just change .zip to .xml)
i have to find the other file, because i noticed some other grammatical things. no worries tho
and, 'additional settings', in the xml has too many 'n's, lol

Pretty Neat
I was able to go on Google Talk on my PC and send messages to my phone. The copy:text feature I can definitely see myself using so that I don't have to type long URLs in the browser. The other functions seem like they would be nice if you lost your phone or if it was stolen. Overall a pretty neat app! Thanks!
Rob
HTC Incredible
Virtuous Rom 2.7
So I have the app running and logged in. (Phone is logged into [email protected])
On my PC I have [email protected]. I message from PC to phone (John to Paul) and nothing happens.
I tried "where" "ring" etc, but the app doesn't respond. What am I doing wrong?
What next...
When you start the app on the phone, make sure you input your google information and then start the app. If you have Google Talk up on your PC, it should pop up a window for you to type commands into (talk to/control your phone). It did for me anyway. Type a "?" to get a list of the commands...

Hmm, I did all this. Let me see where the issue is:
My phone's Google account is set to [email protected].
I put in [email protected] and my password into TalkMyPhone.
I start up TalkMyPhone and it logs in -- successfully.
I go to my PC and log into gmail on [email protected].
I message from my PC ([email protected]) to my phone ([email protected]).
I get the message but nothing happens with TalkMyPhone.
Can you tell me where the issue is?
i entered in all of my information too and nothing seems to work, the app says loging in .. then that its successful. but then nothing can be done from there.
i cant even log in
i always get the message: "login failed" and then "stopping service"
i tried setting it on "use the phones account settings"
then i turned that off, and manually put in my gmail-settings - still didnt work
Same issues over here... Got it all connected, reciving messages from the phone works fine, too (welcome, battery, incomming callings) but sending commands doesn't work for me.
Got a HTC Magic/Sapphire with CM6 (2.2) running on it.
I had the same problem. I changed the GTalk Port to 5222 and entered my ****@googlemail.com instead of ****@gmail.com
Works perfect on my HD2 (Android ) Thank you!
When I log in on phone i get this gTalk message on my pc from my own account:
Welcome to TalkMyPhone. Send "?" for getting help
Battery level 78%
Works just perfect...

do i need to have the real gtalk installed on my computer?
doesnt applications like trillian for windows work?
I tried Pidgin and it works but I use the GMail-Chat because it's my info hub
Anyways, great work chm.duquesne, this is a really great application.
Now there just needs to be a way in GTalk to turn off the chat notification in Android for a single contact
// Edit
The "where" feature is really awesome, mate.
Nothing serious but the reply feature does not work for me. When I received a SMS and I type "reply:This is my reply" it answers "No match for "+491234567890" (the number being the correct number, of course).

I use gTalk and it works.
Is it possible to get some kind of ping button on the phone, that opens the conversation window on the pc? I cannot figure out how to open a conversation with myself in gTalk.
Sorry, as you can see, its my first post and i dont exactly know where to put, but i want to share,because i spend hours of searching the net and my device.
I had the problem, that i forgot the password for the googlemail-account linked to the market and found no solution to change it. So i searched a little bit and found a fast solution which was working for me.
So i just took the /data/system/accounts.db file, opened it by using SQLite Database Browser and changed the address to the new one and deleted the stored password. After reboot and accessing the market, i was asked for the password, entered the new one and voila, all was fine.
Sorry, if its the wrong forum.
btw, my device is a rooted desire, with "Official_FroYo_Market_fixed" ROM
Interesting!
Is it also possible to change a google account without resetting whole device?
Yes it is possible.
It was my aim to change it without resetting the device and this is the solution. No need to reset anything.

download the free Super Manager from the market, give it root , keep moving up folders to root, go to /data/system/ and just delete accounts.db it is quicker to just reenter the account info , by the time you go through all the steps to edit that file and the know what to change your finished entering the account info, I just had to do this I put my wifes account on my phone, tried everyway to remove her which a search landed me here, I downloaded Sq but just to much to do so I found super manager while searching the market for help
Thanks for the hint! Deleting the accounts.db worked very well for me.
Great share, thank you!
Another aspect is the mail associated with a purchase. Currently I can change the email for my vendor account, but it isn't possible to shift the purchase profile to another email account as far as I know.
If anybody got an idea/solution to that, it would be more than appreciated.
guys,
I need help, I read above method of reset market logon, so I deleted account.db with rootexplorer. Then I start market again, it ask me signon. This is working, remove my wife logon information.
Then I put in detail id and password, but I am getting network error, my phone on 3G network, my browser able to visit any web page. But the market apps just not connecting. What did I do want ?
thanks

Hey folks! I just wanted to point everyone to my free, open-source app, GMarks.
Features
Sync your browser bookmarks with a GMarks label
Live folders for any label
Integrated global search
Create GMarks quickly from the browser's "share" menu
Free and open-source!
Check out some screenshots.
GMarks is available on the Android Market, and also as an APK download from the project website. Please try it out, and leave feedback!
Excellent, but I will wait until the 2-step authentication, because I can't log in with out it.
Thank you!
Thanks for letting me know Alex -- I've had a couple people mention it now so now that I know how popular this feature is I'll work more quickly to get it released! Here's the issue page so you can track the progress:
http://code.google.com/p/gmarks-android/issues/detail?id=31
I'll probably release a test build too so users like you can test it before it's published to the Market. Thanks again for the feedback!
Sure, Tom, go ahead and drop a test build here as soon as you can, thanks!
I love this type of apps . Open source and free even tough is works better than many paid-for apps!

I had the issuse with 2-step verification too. But if you check the above-mentioned link about the issue, you'll see someone mentioned a workaround you can use until it has been fixed in the program itself.
Good to see the issue being responded to so quickly btw .
But what I came here for:
I was happy to read about interaction with my phone's browser, except it doesn't work for me. I enabled it in the settings, I pointed it towards a label, I synced it, but no bookmarks turn up in my phone's browser (I am using the Google Android browser), and no new bookmarks are added to the existing Google Bookmarks label either.
Using:
- Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (running Android 2.2.1)
- GMarks 0.6.3
Logging in succeeded (using the above workaround), I get to see the labels and bookmarks in the app, it's only the interaction with the browser's bookmarks that does not seem to work for me.
Let me know if there is more information you need.
Edit:
I'm Dutch, and willing to help when any additional Dutch translation is needed.
Oh, I see. Maybe enable application specific password would also be great.
Two-factor auth support

After replacing the older version with this updated one, I saw I was stilled logged in (I used the workaround). I stopped the app and removed it's data (via the Settings->Manage Applications thing), and started it again to log in properly using the 2-step verification. The login worked as expected*. But my bookmarks are not syncing. The message tells me it's syncing, a message tells me it has finished syncing after only a second or two (back when it actually did sync, the first full sync took much longer than that), but no bookmarks show up in GMarks.
On a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (running Android 2.2.1).
Let me know if you need any further information.
*Except for a minor detail:
When I enter the username and password for my account, I press Sign in, and I arrive at the Verify page, as expected. Now I press my Home button to go to Google's app that provides the verify code. When getting back to GMarks, it's back at the login screen, with empty username and password fields. So I have to repeat the first step of the two-step verification. Not very critical, but a little bit annoying, so it would be nice if there's an easy fix for this .

Yeah that's tricky. I'll have to see if I can detect that a password has already been typed, and attempt to restore that verification code page if it's already been loaded.
You might be able to switch between apps without the GMarks login page reloading by using the "Hold home button" to switch between apps without going to the launcher in between.
Either way, this is an issue that clearly I need to keep working on. Thanks again for your patience and feedback!
Any response to my other issues I wrote about in the above posts?
1) Nothing syncing between GMarks and my browser. (Post #5)
2) Newer version: nothing syncing. At all. (Post #8)

Hi jjwa,
Thanks for working with me to resolve this. I've attached another APK for you to try. After installing, go to Application Management-> GMarks -> Clear Data and give it another try.
If that doesn't work, do you have the SDK tools installed? I can't reproduce this problem so I'd have to rely on getting debug information from you via the "adb logcat" tool.
I apologize for the trouble, and appreciate you're helping me make GMarks better!
Thanks again. Let me know how the new APK goes or if you need instructions on how to use logcat.

The APK did not produce a different result compared to the previous one as far as I could see.
I currently don't have a working USB cable, so I tried out apps for the adb logcat thing. I have used adb before, but I have no experience logcat, so if you need it done with differently settings (I was now logging at the 'Error' filter level btw). I've sent a log to your gmail adress instead of posting it here, because I wasn't sure there was no information in there I would not want to have up in public...
For recording the logs, I repeated the Clear Data steps, started the log apps, logged in on GMarks, let it attempt it's sync, and then told the apps to email their logs.
Let me know if this is sufficient or if you need me to do it differently or do something else.
P.S. Random curiosity: the log is getting spammed massively with 'WPA supplicant' messages. I know that's related to my WiFi. Any idea why it's going so crazy? Should it? Is it just the security protocal chitchat?
Which passwords should I insert? Can I insert the Application specific one? I'm not comfortable inserting my password just to use the credentials, now that we have specific passwords...

Hi Alex,
Unfortunately you have to use your own, normal password (followed by a verification code if you've enabled two-factor auth.) One-time use passwords unfortunately don't work here - they only work for AuthSub enabled services and the Bookmarks service (as far as I know) doesn't support AuthSub. I tried to use a one-time password myself and the login page rejects it and says as much.
The reason GMarks for Android directs the user to the Google login webpage is exactly because I expect users would (or *should*) be wary of inputting their username and password directly into an Android app. (Lots of apps still seem to do this anyway...) Because you are logging in through the webpage, the GMarks app never sees your username or password.
If it makes you feel any better, if you have two-factor auth enabled, any app that _did_ capture your username and password wouldn't be able to log in without the additional verification code. And the verification codes only work once so that code can't be 'stolen' and used to log into your account from somewhere else.
Sorry! I think this is the best anyone can do until Google releases a real Bookmarks API...
Two-factor auth support
Hi folks -- here's a new 0.6.4 build with two-factor auth support.
Entering in the verification code is still a bit of a pain in the ass, but I think it's the best that can be done. Once you enter your username & password in GMarks you get directed to the verification page, at which point you have to switch to the Google Authenticator app.
You can do this quickly if you open the Authenticator app first and then long-press the home button to switch between the two activities. You can also copy the verification code from the Authenticator app by long-pressing on the number. Then you can paste it into the browser textbox in GMarks.
This build also includes the ability to fully re-sync with the server, which will resolve any sync problems and remove stale bookmarks that might have been left on your device if you've deleted bookmarks via the web interface. It's the last item when you go to Menu->Settings. Since this re-downloads *all* of your bookmarks it should be something that is not done often, hence the reason why it's a bit 'hidden away.'
Tom,
thanks for your detailed and excellent answer. I'll try this latest build and come back with results.
[Edited] Seems to be working very well for me. The only comment would be the same as previously stated: when validating the code, you need to leave the application to go to Google authenticator, when you come back, you need to re-enter user and password...
Thanks!

[Edited] Seems to be working very well for me. The only comment would be the same as previously stated: when validating the code, you need to leave the application to go to Google authenticator, when you come back, you need to re-enter user and password...

Alex! You'll be happy to hear I realized there's a much more elegant way to make this work -- I can launch the Authenticator activity straight from GMarks (if you have it installed.) So you can copy the code and just hit 'back' to get back to enter it into the verification page.
Try out the attached build. I think it's a big improvement over the prior solution.
Hi,
Is the version on the market not the latest? I've the market version that says 0.6.4, but 2-factor authentication behave the same as before.
0.6.4

Ooh, that's creepy. I've staged an update but not published it yet. Odd that the Market is now showing the description for 0.6.4 even thought the admin console clearly shows that the last published version is 0.6.3.
You didn't get a Market update, did you?
I plan to publish 0.6.4 soon! I was hoping to get some feedback from the build that I attached in my last post to see if everything looked like it was working correctly first.
If you haven't seen it yet, 0.6.4 is _actually_ released now. I've had some feedback already that two-factor auth is working smoothly now (in addition to my own testing) so you should be good to go! http://goo.gl/AbeDh
I made the world's lamest app because my wife won't let me squish spiders... She wants me to take it outside. I called it Spider Squisher.
I signed up for a Google developer account about 1 month ago and now I am trying to upload my app. When go to https://market.android.com/publish and try to publish an app. I
1. select the app by clicking browse
2. click upload
3. receive the following dialog box pop-up
Unable to parse response. If you have a browser extension or add-on installedwhich changes the JSON response, please disable and refresh this page.

Then
4. when I click back, I get a dialog popup that says
Unable to process the uploaded file. Please check if it exceeds the size limit.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and it's only 13Kb!
5. I click back again after clicking OK on the dialog and I get to my developer console.
6. I click "edit profile" or "Setup Merchant Account" and it takes me back to the Android Developer Console (basically refreshes the page Https://market.anrdoid.com/publish/Home)

Nothing is working! I still get the errors above
I opened up a java console and see a whole bunch of errors relating to border-radius, align, cursor, zoom, user-select, and filter on the market.android.com/publish/gwt/*.css... about 20 warnings in all. Nothing I can point a finger at though.
What's going on? I'm flipping out here... I just want to publish this stupid apk file myself.
I have my receipt to the android market. It's linked to my google account. It's been over a month and I'm still receiving this message
Your Registration to the Android Market is still being processed.
You can upload applications to the Android Market but you cannot publish until your registration is completed.

Attached is the "Spider Squisher" apk file. I would like to publish this myself.... Is there something wrong with my APK?
Yes this is a hello world app... Please tell me I didn't just download a virus.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
No, it is not a virus. I am frustrated with the google publishing process. It won't let me upload!

The market is pretty buggy at times, last weekend i tried for 3 days to update an app without success.
I had the exact same error you had, after sometime i just said f*** this and went to sleep. Sometime next day it worked.
Don't give up hope!
K... I've been trying for 2 days now.
Somewhere i also read that he had the same message, which was very misleading because he got it as he was not yet fully unlocked to use the market.
Seems you are not either? Maybe this could be it too.
They wire you some cents money, which you have to type into a field to complete registration, did you do that?

That is for a sales account. I did not set that portion up. I am not accepting money for this. However, I i tried, and It's doing the same thing as clicking on my account which I mentioned earlier. The market appears to be fully broken and inoperative here. I just don't understand. Who can we call about this?
No one.
You can probably fill out a form somewhere, thats the google way im afraid.
They don't support phonesupport.
I can't find the form... that's why im here on the forums. I could not find a form or email address.
Can anyone help me? Where do I contact google market?
Here is the form http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/request.py?contact_type=publishing
Litterally, within 1 minute of hitting submit, I received an email apologizing for the delay.
Now when I log into the developer console I see
Your Registration to the Android Market is approved!
You can now upload and publish software to the Android Market.

And I can upload apps!
Interesting, must be their cunning plan to cut down on the amount of junk apps that just aim to get ad clicks.
(Not saying yours is - I like the sound of it lol)
Have you made a Boss Spider with your wifes face on it yet
