If you just view the Youtube Update option in Market, you'll see tons of people complaining of this after the last Youtube Update.
So your friend updated his Youtube and that's the culprit. They changed how the app works. Has nothing to do with the phone.

Yeah i updated 2 and i hate it .....

I can't seem to recall youtube not working while screen is off.....
Maybe because the screen doesn't die while the app is active.
Or its just not seeing the difference between audio and video

So shouldn't we be able to uninstall the update through "manage apps"?

Old Youtube APK
Could someone that knows what they're doing pull the apk for that "old youtube"
incase we update over and update over and update and then lose it forever?
I don't fully understand how it works but I assume it's the same thing like people pulling the apk for the old market right?
Just thought it would be a good idea to have the "old youtube apk" floating around on here so if a time comes when we need it we already have it.
Thanks.
Oh yeah, if that's NOT how it works...I apologize.

Flashlight app missing??

So when I first turned on the phone a few nights ago there was a flashlight app on there out of the box. I've since done all of the updates and installed a bunch of stuff, but not removed anything. Now I can't find the flashlight app at all.
Anyone else notice this?
Mine didn't have one before I did the updates. Huh.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136753
I never had it, but this works great
I swear it was there cause Wednesday night I was playing with it and thinking "awesome they included this" because it was one app that was a must for me on my old Moment.
I never had it either
You must of got the only phone that had it in the world lol cause noone else had it

For what its worth, the flashlight IS supposed to be there...there are instructions for accessing it in the HTC mobile guide included on the phone...I went looking for the app also after reading that.

Ha, I wish
Anyways, it was there and now it's not - I'm 100% sure on that. I used it when I first turned on the phone and was checking out the stock apps. Also it's on page 102 of the user guide as a feature.
Maybe someone who is just getting the phone can check it out when they first turn on the device.
I took the OTA updates, so I wonder if they deleted the app somehow, or maybe it's hidden in the app drawer. Either way it's very strange.
So the flashlight app is back. It appeared in the HTC hub this morning and I was able to reinstall it. It's the same app that was preinstalled on the phone when I first got it.
Weird...I never had it either. I downloaded Tiny Flashlight +LED and it works great. It's the same one I used on my Epic as well. Lots of options (for a flashlight).
Flashlight is now in HTC hub

I tried updating and I am unable to do video chat. I then did a reinstall and tried both 3g and wifi and I don't see the video chat option on the settings menu as mentioned by the app. I have an eve 3d with synergy evo 3d mod. Anyone also experiencing any problems?
I tried before I posted, everything worked fine for me. Rooted stock ROM, RCMIX kernel
Not Working for me either.
Did you find a fix for your evo3d? I don't have the option either in Skype even after uninstall and update. Same problem on gf's evo.
I get no video and the person I'm chatting cant see anything.
I was just chatting with my girl friend on skype with the new update. I'm running Vipers 1.2 ROM with TWRP
If your having trouble try uninstalling rebooting and dowmloading skype again.
I'm on the stock ROM, no fix is needed. This works fine for everyone I know. Probably whatever ROM you guys are using.

The video setting doesn't show up in synergy because the base is so modified that the app doesn't recognize it as an EVO 3D. A different ROM will work. I had the same issue.

Yeah I dont know whats up with that but I just hold the phone horizontal to ignore the upside down video chats.
It's definitely irritating that for a company as large as Skype seems to perform no quality control on their software. I mean its not an obscure bug. Immediately upon starting a video call you see the person your talking to standing on their head. One of the main reasons we bought the phone was the convenience for video calls since my wifes family live in Colombia and we are in the states. Also being military ill end up traveling and having a method to see ny family would he nice. Oh well. I'll just hold it upsidedown till they fix it. I thoguht if i bought an android phone I wouldn't suffer from errors caused by holding my phone the wrong way.

How do I stop skype from running?
I did the menu, settings, apps and stop it that way. It then came back the next day with no option to stop it from running. Is it eating battery when it's running in the background? Meaning I can see the skype symbol at the top of the screen.
TIA!

Task manager to kill process. Or set offline immediately and auto login in Skype prefs then you won't have to re-enter password each time you launch or switch to it.

Netflix Update Kills Video

I wouldn't advise updating the Netflix app. I did yesterday and now I only get audio and no video. I'm running CM7 beta. Can anyone using stock or another rom confirm if yours is working. I saw in the app market comments that others were having problems as well but haven't seen anything over here.
I have stock gingerbread and I don't have any video issues. Although I was getting like a fast forward audio/video thing when I started a movie. It corrected after I stopped and started it. I like it better because they fixed the orientation situation.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Well I guess it's a cm7 problem like the HBO to Go app. Damn, I love the rom but this needs to be fixed. Hopefully I can flash a backup to get it going again.
yup i had the same issues. i just re-installed a backup of 1.4.0 and it works fine again.
Well, I did a cwm restore from a backup I did 2 days ago. I opened netflix and gave me an error about my device being deactivated, I just clicked through the ok's and it logged me out. I logged back in and all was well. Also, after reviewing the bug reports on CM7, I came across an interesting fix that may work for plex, I'll post the link below in the hopes that it will help somebody.

Video chat on Google talk not working...

Just as the title says. Wife and I try to video chat, can only see our own video showing in the corner. Have tried on 3g 4g and wifi with all the same result. No errors, just can't see the other persons video. Also tried this with multiple phones that support it with the same result. Any ideas?

I have 2 Rezounds, video chat works on both with GTalk and Skype.

Hmm, skype video chat does work. Even does pretty good with the iPhone that a buddy has. This is just odd now....
Haven't tried skype but gtalk and tango are working fine.
I have tried Skype, Talk, and Google+ Hangout from my Rezound to a Rezound/Bionic/DInc2 and all of them work flawlessly. Not always best video quality, but they all work. Check your settings that you are actually sending video.
can you tell any us anymore information? was this over wifi? did you hear any audio? etc?
So I'm actually having this problem too.
I start google talk on the droid 3, click on the video icon next to somebody's name that supports vid chat. Screen goes black for a split second, then returns to the google talk contacts screen.
Interestingly, google hangout with google+ works great. As do tango and skype.
I'll post logcat output here in a bit.....

GB, but I just noticed that this thread is for Rezound. I'm on hitting this on Droid3, so not only have I resurrected a dead thread, but I've accidentally hijacked a thread in the wrong forum too.

[Q] Music Junk HELP!

Does anyone know where I can find the latest version of Music Junk? Mine just keeps saying "Network Error" and all the searches I have done are really old posts. Can someone help me please???
Looks like it might be gone for good since the Facebook and Twitter page has been pulled....
I've been wondering the same, but I guess it really is finally gone for good... which blows because it was the best app for downloading music, hands down.
After posting my last, I installed Music Junk 4.3 on my phone again and opened it immediately to try it out again. I searched for music and it actually worked. I downloaded a couple of songs and everything, but then it stopped working after trying another search. Not sure what this means, but hopefully something positive...
Can you post a link for 4.3? I couldn't find it anywhere. I found other versions, but not that one. Pretty Please?
I have this problem with 4.3 I also tried to uninstall & reinstall. I tried 4.2 as well with no luck. This is typical of them when they change versions, but I haven't seen a 4.4 version out there...

But the more important question is are you getting 4.3 to work? Seems like most of us are getting "network error" on any searches.
I have a 4.3, but it's not like it's doing me any good.

I did last night, randomly... decided to install it again and try it. The first search worked and I was able to download several songs. After that, no such luck. I've been getting network error ever since.
I remember long time back (HTC hero days) music junk used to have some files, that used to pull data from these music websites, that used to get outdated. hence, the new versions would have the new files and we would not get the network errors...
If we can get a developer to look into some recent music junk versions and look into the changes made, we might be able to get it working again.

The thing is that music junk was the only app that showed the bitrate of each song. And it worked! The quality of songs was amazing.
The thing is that there is a very easy fix for this Network error... We just need a developer to look into it.

I agree, with Rolle you are at the mercy of whatever is available bit rate wise. I have had good results so far, sometimes CD 44.1 quality or near, sometimes its complete crap. Just throwing out there for a suggestion to hold you over! I agree and hope a developer can modify music junk as necessary.

My worst nightmares have come true. Music junk hands down the best music app without an overly stupid gui, has bitrate info, and the largest music selection.

Anybody know of an alternative method of downloading free music, I haven't paid for music in three years thanks to music junk.

I think it's a done deal, guys. Anytime the servers went offline & we waited on a new version,I was still able to download on mj ver3.0.that is the only version that would work all the time even when the newer current ones would come network error. Needless to say, 3 isn't working anymore.
No way 4.3 was working for me this month now i get network error why i love this app. Any one know if there is an update like 4.4 or am alternative app out there?
I'm using v 3.0.4, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. The trick is i have to press search a few times, i get the "network error'' the first tries but eventually it loads the search page. I get the error far more times when im using the network than through wi fi. But once it goes through i click on the song and downloads on the first try.
