[Q] Taskbar becoms green!!!! - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I stumbled on this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mvPkMNKgvA&feature=related while browsing about the official Froyo 2.2 update. I tested the problem that was indicated in the video and it is in fact replicable on my phone. Anyone else having the problem as well? Watch the video.

What's the problem????? ..... You know these phones can multi task right.... so if you in a call and you have to open another app ,the green just hilights that you can pull down the notification bar to return to the call, instead of trying to find the dialer app .... Feature! ~^?

I didnt watch the video, but yes.... feature.

YouTube app no longer playing videos!

Hello all. I have been having issues with the HTC youtube app on the Raphael. Running original sprint rom. I am no longer able to play any video in the youtube app. I am able to open the program and search, but as soon as I try to play, I get a "Cannot play this video" error. I have searched high and low for a solution to this; I've tried a couple of so-called resolutions but nothing yet. Any ideas?
edit: One of my friends has the Sprint Touch Pro as well and the youtube app works fine on his. I have tried a hard reset and that seemed to work for a day but then I begin to get the same problem. I REALLY don't want to have to do a hard reset every time I want to view a youtube video!
edit 2: Appears to be a problem with the flashlite cab I downloaded and installed. Did a hard reset and reinstalled all my programs except the flashlite and youtube is now working fine. FYI.

Same Problem as OP.

New skype update support Honeycomb video call today, any luck with Sony?

From engadget
Skype 2.5 for Android brings video calls to 14 new devices, including Honeycomb tablets
Dont have the tablet in hand right now. Anyone tried it?
Doesn't work for me.
Edit:
It does work. Had to enable video calling in the settings.
Was wondering about this. May need to try it and see what it's like. Been looking for a video chat app that works well.
mine working too. just enable the video function under the setting menu.

problems with youtube app

Hi guys.I am running task and phantoms extreme stock rom which is pretty much just normal honeycomb 3.1 without touchwiz. The YouTube app that came with it is v3.1.1.
Its causing me a couple of problems. Firstly, not all videos which appear on YouTube using the browser appear on the app. Example I can watch the official video of a song called black and yellow on the browser but can't find it on the app. Secondly 90% of the videos start with ads. Once the ad finishes,all I get is a button to replay the ad and the actual video does not start. I have turned off safefilter under settings but that didn't help either. What am i doing wrong? Thanks

You might need to delete and reinstall your youtube app.

[Q] Two Major Problems with the S3 (Help)

Ok so I've had the S3 since yesterday and needless to say its a pretty incredible piece of kit.
However I've encountered two problems I can't get around;
1. I can't seem to get my music player onto the lock screen to easily change track, I've tried a variety of players but none seem to take over the lock screen no matter what settings are used? Anyone know a fix?
2. Whenever I use the internet on my phone using desktop mode or any internet browser, when trying to watch videos other than on Youtube I always get the "You need Flash" instead of the video, I never had this problem on my Note...
Are there any quick fixes to this? I don't want to root my device...
For 2) it's probably a case of you needing to go the Play Store and downloading Adobe Flash

Haha
I would have thought by the fact i'd posted here it would have been assumed Id already downloaded Flash .
I have Adobe Flash Player 11 with the fix for ICS, however playing videos I could on my Note just isn't happening on the S3 and i'm not sure why!

If there are videos with commercials, it can be that the popup blocker of the browser blocks them.
It happened to me too just because the website I tried, needed to have the commercials downloaded first before it could start the playback.
Are you using the same browser on both phones?
About the first problem it works ok for me so i really dont know. (stock music player)
the above two problems are not major!! i will tell you a major problem and that is an auto focus issue while recording video looses its focus and moves too and fro awkwardly video help help!
I have the same problem as number 1: The stock music player on the galaxy s3 does not appear to have any control on the lockscreen. It's strange because on my Galaxy S it works perfectly.. Anybody have ideas on how to resolve the issue, without going to 3rd party apps/widgets?
It's annoying but at least you can pull down the notification bar and get it there.
Also the headphones do volume but not tracks... F'n annoying.
I find the music player a bit ****, wish I had access to Google Play Music from 4.0.
The only way is pull down the notification bar

In order for you to play the videos using the browser, you need to switch back to android mode(phone mode), the flash player, especially the adobe one, do not support desktop mode.
To sort it, you need a flash player that supports desktop mode which i don't know if there is already existing app like that.
So, there is no way to get it working properly, only notification bar? That's weak..
Btw. I have also problems with flash. Youtube works fine but sometimes it just keeps loading and doesn't play ( from the internet browser). What's the deal with all these issues, I thought SG3 will be flawless..
I wanted to follow up on this, I find the music player extremely annoying. The headphones not changing track I can live with for the time being.
Any solution on how to access the on screen music player besides the notification bar from the lock screen?

Background Video Recording App?

I can't seem to find an app that records video in the background on my phone. I am running Task650 and Ktoonsez's AOKP build 6.8.12. I have tried Secret Video Record, Mobile Hidden Camera, Hidden Camera Spy Camera Free, and a couple others. These don't record video in the background correctly. The videos come out scrambled (with green lines usually). You can tell when the camera is being moved but you can't tell what is being recorded at all. Does anyone know how to fix the problem or of an app that works?
That ACLU secret recording app might work. Don't know if it saves video locally or on their servers though.

I am having the same problem. The video won't even play for me. Everything else works, just the background process causes it to screw up.

That's because Android does not allow recording video without showing preview (SurfaceView) to the user. When you hide preview and Android detects it - preview surface will be destroyed. Furthermore then surface is not longer valid - MediaRecorder (which records video) will crash.
All those apps try to overcome this restriction in different ways.
I've also tried to do it and published app: Hidden Video Camera.
Google Play link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lofatsoftware.hvc
Application website: http://lofatsoftware.com/hidden-video-camera/
I've tested on bunch of different devices and it worked like a charm. You can try it for free and check if it works on your device.
