hi, i was trying to watch some youtube movies but none of them load! it says "there was a problem while playing", my android version is eclair 2.1, ive tried removing it, install the youtube from froyo (2.2) on my eclair 2.1, and nothing, ive cleaned cache from the aplication, tried reinstalling it without luck. i want to remain in eclair, i've customized it to my test, the only thing missing is youtube... any ideas?
i've searched in all the net and i can't find anything about this, just other issues related and everyone comes to the "try a new Rom-solution"
...you should delete the youtube apk. in data/dalvik-cache and in data/data along with system/app, if you haven't already. Then reinstall, should work. And for the Froyo youtube, paste over original apk. and set permissions accordingly....hope I helped.

i've already did that, :S, uninstalling, even searched with root explorer everything that says "YouTube", cleaned them and reinstalled the original youtube from eclair that i've backed up. T_T
Well at least are there any apps that does the same thing or even better? (hate to use clones but, if i dont have any option...)

, nothing. i dont think that the apps are the problems. i thinks there something wrong with the config, apps, etc of my Eclair. i have installed Link2Sd, Xrecovery, it' s also rooted. oh, and a Timescape from xperia arc. thats all. the App of youtube need to have a especial permission or something?
any replacement for youtube app? ive installed a program that download youtube videos, and it converts youtube videos into mp4 and i can playit that way, so my problem is playing flash videos, so how eclair can play youtube video if you cant properly install flash player in eclair 2.1? is there an internal tweak/option/app that allows to play flash videos on eclair 2.1?

Got Hulu working with Froyo 0.6.6. No demon voices! Just browsed a lot of the forums on XDA and finally got it working. Can't retrace all my steps, but here is a link that can get you started: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=779761#8089640.
Run a backup before you try anything.
All the steps are out there.
Another helpful link: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...5-how-watch-hulu-your-android-2-2-device.html
Once the three apks are installed, you can use either use the hulu.apk or watch from the website. If using the website, go to google.com and switch to classic view, and then in the address bar, input about:debug which enables you to change your ua string in your browser settings to desktop. Be sure that you don't have a setting that has flash playing on demand. Also, login to your hulu account and in settings, choose the lowest bitrate of 288. Change this setting in hulu from your desktop computer. I found the stock froyo browser to work best.
Does pandora and youtube still work for you?

This is huge! My wife is gonna love this!
Thanks for the find!
Anyone else got it to work? It said it could not open the install_huluflash_player.apk as APK
I moved it to /system/app and toggle the "allow non-market apps" checkbox with no success

I uninstalled flash first and then followed the directions to install each apk in the order prescribed. To install, I copied to the sd card of the nook, allowed non-market apps, and then used file manager to install. Hope this helps. I ended up taking the hulu fix off as it seemed to slow down performance.
couldn't get this to work on nookie froyo 0.6.8, here is what I did
using adb, I installed "install_huluflash_player.apk"
Then I tried to install "flash_fixed_final.apk" and " Hulu.apk" but it would not let me, gave me a failure
I then adb pushed "flash_fixed_final.apk" and "Hulu.apk" into /system/apps
Used Astro to tried to install them. For "flash_fixed_final.apk" it would only let me upgrade. After the upgrade I tried to install "Hulu.apk" but it said it was already installed, so I just launched it and it seems to work
the only problem was the "demon voices" sound
I then tried to fix it using the OP's link by adb push all the libstagefright.****.so to /system/lib/
after pushing all of them, I rebooted the device as suggested
coming back from the reboot, video would not even start in hulu or website
I then tried uninstalling hulu and flash through Setting, Astro, and adb but none of the methods worked
had to download root explorer to delete flash and hulu
Might attempt again with 0.6.6 or some other versions, has anybody else gotten this to work at all?
UPDATE
ok, still on 0.6.8 nookie froyo, this time I tried the files from the OP's first link instead of the second link
after uninstalling everything from my first attempt, I pushed the hulu and flash onto my nook
adb push flash-fixed.apk /system/app/
adb push Hulu.apk /system/app/
Using root explorer, installed flash-fixed, then hulu
Lauching hulu, flash works, but only at the advertisement (loads ads until last 1 second and freezes)
Tried using Dolphin HD and Dolphin Mini after changing the user agent to Desktop, it does the same thing (normal browser would not allow my to do abou:config to change user agent)
Tried with the normal Dolphin browser and some of the videos seems to work, although they are very slow and laggy, even after adjusting video to 288p
I guess it now works some of the time, anybody have any suggestions to improve this? Might try this process again with the files from the OP's second link
"Hulu works" for Droid X
The update to link below is about 2 months after the link in Op post. Works well on my Droid X. Any reason it couldn't work on the NC? Can't test myself until I get my replacement NC...

Hi!
I bought an x10 a week ago and have been trying various roms on it and it's fun.
I have a market problem with 2.1 roms modded or default and I have tried everything including formatting sd card and using xrecovery to format sys etc...
I cannot download apps from the market on any 2,1 roms only 2.2 and above work fine.
I see in all the 2.1 roms that the market has the history of downloaded apps but won't install them either so I would like to use root explorer and delete the market directory and hope to resolve this problem.
I have tried some 2.2 roms but I would like to use a 2.1 rom with working cam and find some cool themes but 2.1 roms are useless to me without market downloads.
please help if you know where the root directory of the market files are.
Thanks for your help
BTW I been to the website for a long time and got into phone mods on an old htc touch and thank the website and mods for hosting this great place.
Try using titanium backup, go market in the list and wipe data.
Also go to system, applications, manage application, find the market and uninstall updates.
Maybe that could help.....solves any issue i have had with the market.

Hi Mr Patchy Patch,
Thanks for your reply. Titanium backup did not work and I just used the program to wipe data and uninstall the market as suggested. (cool tip)
In xrecovery I also wiped all the choices available as well as went into the partition options and wiped everything I could there.
I have reset all phone data inside the phone and reset to factory settings in the phone with no luck. Uninstalled updates no luck
I have also used flashtool to install a generic rom with no luck in the spp installer.
I have also used sony pc suite to repair the phone and still I see I have downloads in my downloads in the market and they never complete when trying to install anything.
I am at a complete loss as to why I cannot install apps from the market on any 2.1 rom.
App installs work fine from 2.2 and up.
Any more ideas?
Cheers
Try deleting android and .android_secure folder of you sd card but make sure to copy those to a pc first.
Thanks for your reply,
I deleted the directories on SD card as recommended then went to xrecovery and wiped everything and installed factory x10 2.1 rom and setup connection and the market downloads still show the files I tried to download before and nothing will install in the app market.
Does anyone know of a 2.2 froyo rom that has everything working and some good menus?
2.3 with working cam etc??
I have no luck with phones
Maybe you can just go to your google market account and change your linked phone in the market that may be it.
Or uninstall market with manage application and use root manager clean all reference's to market
and reboot then reinstall market.apk. an sign in.
Make sure you have the market apk first.
Hi!
I tried root manager great program but no luck.
I wiped and uninstalled the vender and market update and changed my google id and no luck...
installing a generic rom either from xrecover or from the flashtool and the app downloads get stuck and never finish.
It appears I no longer have the download history on the new account with the old downloads and I guess I surrender.
I have no idea why I cannot download apps from the market on any 2.1 roms modded or generic.
Weird as hell
try opening your google talk app?

I have the same problem I've been stuck in this situation for a couple of days now and I've been searching the whole X10 forum for a solution. I've flashed to multiple 2.1 and 2.2 roms but the problem is still there. Seems like the download is running on the notification bar and in the market but nothing's happening at all. I even took out my SD card and it's still downloading. The Market.apk isn't eve listed on my phone when I want to clear the cache and uninstall the updates. I have no clue how this happened and I'm desperate to find a solution
I recently updated my rooted Eris running nonSensical ROM to the laest version of the Market and now when I search for any applications (games or apps) I get no results found.
If i search for books or movies I do get results. Any ideas on how to fix this?
I have tried clearing cache, clearing data, and even doing an uninstall on updates to the Market app.
The uninstall does take it back to e previous version, but no results found still. Then after restarting the Market, it auto updates to the latest version again.
Am i going to need to reload the ROM to get the market going again?
Try the procedure from this post here. This cleared up the market issues I was having. Also, it may be my imagination, but after doing this, things seem to load a bit faster in the market for me. Just a thought!

this is not for noobs though ... i have no freakin idea what file to put where and what to do? i just downloaded stock FW and kernel, flashed it via odin on my samsung galaxy s2, and after the flashing my market just don't respond. i can't find facebook, gmail, google+, zedge, nothing. it's just as if my account has been banned... i only get some homebrewed apps shown when i search for proper apps. and since my phone is not rooted, i believe i don't have the premission to move any system files ?
I rooted my nook tablet with the SnowballMod root and everything is working fine, but some of the apps in the android market are missing. I have tried editing the build.prop file and clearing the market data and cache to spoof the market, but it still wont work. does anybody have ANY ideas?
theres not some, more like a lot and thats normal cuz its happening to everyone. apps that dont appear on the market have to be downloaded as .apk files and then transferred to your nooks sd card i use drop box and es file explorer for this procedure
how would i do this? how close are the people to fixing this and being able to install custom roms? i need facebook.
sideloading if it is not working from market.

Copy the .apk to the device and select it in a file explorer program.

It's not technically broken. The market should not show you apps for which your device does not meet the requirements. That doesn't meet they don't work, but that you have to install them another way. After updating my phone to ICS, I had to sideload Tapatalk, since it is not "technically" compatible with ICS, even though it does work.

1) Use the web app (it's pretty good, and doesn't have any background processes)
2) Look for the thread in the App section titled "[download] Facebook, Twitter and Google+ apk"

when you reinstalled flash did u install it through an apk or through the market?
either way if you reinstalled it it probably installed into the data/app folder. maybe try moving the apk from data/app to system/app and set the permissions as owner read and write, read for the other two. after that reboot and see if it works?
