Anyone else dissatisfied with the YouTube app? - HTC EVO 3D

I've noticed that the YouTube app on this device has some pretty bad lag so far. Like slightly worse even than my POS Samsung Moment. Scrolling while videos are playing cause really bad stutters and slowdowns. YouTube works fantastically in the browser but the standalone app seems lacking.

Really ? No problems here I prefer it over my iPhone YouTube app
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

It's only ever bad for me when scrolling between comments and such during the video, and it's really not too bad, but it is the one instance where I feel the phone is a bit slower than it should be.

So far it has been awesome. Maybe your over analysing.

I probably am over analyzing it, and the slowdown I see is probably just a compatibility issue that I'm sure will get resolved. Regardless, here's a video showing the slowdown I'm referring to.

This thing always stops playing video. This version and the latest version from the market. I will just stop with "An error has occurred touch he to restart" or something like that. Pisses me off to no avail!

I used to have that same problem, mostly just over 3g though. I know some people can't get it to play over wifi or 4g. Yoboii23's post about retrieving msl to speed up internet fixed the problem I had.

Used to not have a problem with it and would run smoothly with my airwave..last few days its been lagging during playback and buffering..I have to update my prl for it to run smooth again..I feel like I'm updating my prl everyday..I'm trying to get another phone bit I've exchanged my 3d twice already and don't know if they will do it again..I swear my store.got a bad bunch..I love the phone besides some of the network issues I've been having

My problems for the app would be that it only works sometimes & only on 4G & not on 3G or WiFi . Which is weird because it used to work before like a week ago .

Screen Tearing on WatchEspn app WTF

Same Issue Here
Using EVO 3D in stock , rooted and with Custom ROM same issue. WatchESPN sounds great and looks great if you can get past the constant lines rippling across the screen. Not sure what to do here very upset by this. Extensive Google searching as reveled on a few threads talking about this and no one has an answer as of yet . I will be emailing HTC and ESPN.
I updated to the latest version of Adobe Air (released 10/04) which WatchESPN uses and it has fixed the tearing video problem for me.

Love how people automatically blame the phone for apps not working correctly. It is the app makers responsibility to make sure that their app works on all phones if they release it for all phones. Take for example, Netflix. When it was first released, it was only released for a couple of phones becuase Netflix tested on these phones. I am sure that ESPN will release a new update that will say something on the lines of Bug Fixes for EVO 3d and probably a couple of other newer phones that have just came out. Just wait it out and stop blaming the phone.

It doesn't say anything it just never loads. It will show. Loading..... And it will stay like that forever. The longest I waited was 15 mins & even after it wasn't fully loaded (same on wifi regardless of speed).

I'm having issues with it while on 3G. I keep getting,
"There was a problem while playing. Touch to Retry"
Ok. Now I know there's a problem. Thanks for the replies everyone. That's why I root my phone. That's why I put custom roms on my phone.

Last update to youtube fixed the issue. I then rooted and the problem is back. Doesn't matter which rom I use I can't get it to work, even after updating the app. Dammit!!

[Q] Issues with Photon and music/audio applications (Pandora, Google Music)

After the OTA update, my photon has generally been performing very well. I had the silent call/no audio issue before, but they seem to have gone away completely since the update. I only experience the "random" reboot issue when I am using music/audio applications such as Pandora and Google music.
Also, if I am listening to music using Pandora and I turn the phone from portrait to landscape (and vice versa), the audio pauses/stutters with each rotation. If I do this enough, I can usually get the phone to lock up and reboot eventually.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues?
I was having hanging issues with Pandora have you got the update That came out today it has been fine since I downloaded that

Are you talking about the MR5 update that came out earlier in the week? I have downloaded that and am still experiencing the issue
No there was a Pandora update that came out yesterday from the market also make sure your phone is set to automatic for the network settings and on high performance for battery settings or it can do weird stuff
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
I notice the phone stutters in pretty much everything I do outside of the music app. If I start messing with settings while it's playing it stutters over and over. I also notice that the music player and music widget don't play well with each other. I can be playing music in the app and on my homescreen the widget doesn't even show what I am playing and just sits blank. I am really starting to see some bugs with the software on this phone.

Thanks. The update seems to have fixed the stuttering issue for me. I'll see if I get any more lockups/freezes over the next few days
I spoke too soon. After about 10 minutes on pandora, the stuttering came back. I wonder if this is an android issue or a photon specific problem

Yea I see this stuttering too.. used to happen on my Evo OG when I was using bluetooth stereo headphones and came into a building where my wifi knew the password. After the first update on that phone it was fixed.
I notice if I disable wifi it fixes the stuttering issue on the photon as well... but on the photon it happens whenever my wifi finds something in range, even if the phone doesn't have a connection to the wifi. After a while it seems to stop, like the hardware requests more resources and settles it.. but it is still quite annoying.
You can also get root explorer and change it in the build.prop

Definitely considering trading my Photon in for the Epic 4G Touch when it comes out on the 19th. Not only do I get the reboots while streaming but I also get the stuttering as you have mentioned...doesn't matter what the signal level is. Sometimes Last FM and Pandora will not play at all on this phone.

Homerun Battle 3D

Ive been using this game for awhile now on my G Tab and my Samsung Infuse with no issues. But last couple days only on my tab when i go to play online matchup its really slow and sluggish. But only online play. Its fine on my phone on wifi too, so any ideas? I tried closing the app, rebooting, disc and rec my wifi, stopping running apps that use a bit of memory, but no luck. Anyone else ever have any issues like this? Any info would be great. Thanks

Netflix looks like crap

Anyone know why videos on Netflix are all pixelated on the x2? Is there a fix?
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
My guess is you have a connection problem of some sort. Are you using it on wireless or 3g? Mine is usually clear. Only time it gets pixelated is when my internet connection is acting up (having trouble with it at home right now). When the connection is working as it should, Netflix works great. If my connection starts going bonkers, the picture will pixelate for a few seconds and then clear up again as the signal gets better. Until my internet problems at home, I never had any problems with it. This reminds me. Have to call my ISP, again.
Tried on my wifi McDonald's wifi 3g. All Pixelated

Netflix looks good on mine. On 3G Nd wifi.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Just tried on my home wifi. Looks just fine, although at the beginning it was pixelated. IIRC Netflix tried to use an algorithm to change its quality to best suit your connection speeds. As has been said previously, WIFI is recommended over 3G, but you might also want to look into some scripts (speedy comes to mind, but I haven't kept up with that compared to what comes with the latest roms tbh).

Its most likely a network difference. The Thunderbolt has 4G, and the X2 has 3G. The reason you just downgraded is because the X2 is way faster than the Thunderbolt. The Tegra 2 processor is no joke.
Actually its a major upgrade. Even rooted with cm7 the thunderbolt is blowing the x2 out of the water

Mmhmm.... Where are you getting your information? What are you basing this on? Which device was running CM7?
Basing it off being able to fly through app after app, webpages being crystal clear, music not skipping or forcing closed. The x2 was running cm7. The locked bootloader sucked balls. I like changing kernels,radios, etc. Thunderbolt does everything I ask it to without hesitating
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
While I do agree that a locked bootloader is terrible (my previous device was unlocked), I have to say that your other evidence merely comes from OS tweaks, not speed. The Xperia play browser is smoother in scrolling than the X2s, but that doesn't mean that it is faster. A good way to see performance differences is to try heavy emulators like N64oid and FPSe with 0 frameskips and graphics smoothing on and you will see a significant difference in performance, especially with FPSe, which has dual core optimization.
When I put my cm7 x2 next to my RF stock TB yea the x2 wins in quadrant scores, but that means nothing when a game like fruit ninja lags on my phone but not hers. Or videos from SD card are pixelated but not on the tb
