just wondering if anyone is able to get the newest version of HULU PLUS to work on thier HTC EVO 4g LTE.. Im not sure if its because Im running a rooted phone with a custom ROM. MeanRom 3.9 bootloader 1.12 S-0N HTC SENSE 4.1 BASE 1.12.11.0809 BUILD 2.13.651.1.. I get the advertisement starting like a tease to make me think its working then about 2 seconds in I get a pop up error "streaming unavailable {WV44} {91}"
I'm running MeanRom 3.9 and I just watched 5 minutes of parks & recreation to test and it worked fine. I always dirty flash MeanRom.

Newest version of netflix isn't working for me. I'm stock unrooted. Sometimes service goes down for an hour or so, but only streaming is down for me. Won't even start.
Ask me about my ability to annoy complete strangers!
Wish I had seen this sooner, I just took the update lol
I got hulu - (free hulu) working on my phone with the new firmware and dolphin browser

The newest Netflix is working for me on MeanROM 3.9.
Does it work on WiFi? I installed the older version so, its good anyways.

No mine won't work on WiFi pt 3g.. won't work if I use an older Hulu apk or the newest apk Heck I even tried streaming via dolphin browser.. Still does not. Out of ideas...

If so have you found anything that was not working on it? I am currently running VEGAn Ginger and want to try the HC but I want to know what is not working before taking the time to nvflash and install new ROM.
No, but
Many things are still not workin, but there are great improvements daily. I think it wont be long to say a stable beta version.
So i would suggest to be patient and wait till the beta is out
Thanks, I will stay with VEGAn for now until then.
I loaded a2.2 and it is pretty good. They updated the email apps in a2.3. The only things now not really working are hd video, camera, flash (not sure if flash is working in further updates). Overall, for me the things that are missing are already missing in vegan rc1 (hd video and camera) so I am gonna stay with honeycomb and continue updating as new updates come out. It is nice and streamlined.
Been running every iteration. I've stuck with a2.1 now for a bit.
After this update, they have the overclocking kernel back in place and my gtab hates that. So I reverted back to 2.1, and then just copied the working email and gmail apps over.
Just missing the flash, who cares about the camera.
Came from Vegan Ginger, so the only thing this doesnt have over that is the working flash. But to be honest, its been a lot more stable than ginger ever was.

When you update do you have to reflash the tablet?
Where can I get the honeycomb build for the point of view tablet,

Quick Update:
I installed a2.2 and it is crazy fast. 1900 quadrant before OC 2900+ after OC. Only caveat is the wifi crashes and the camera issues. Waiting for RC now.

You need to update to 2.4 - a good bit was fixed. Still no camera or OpenGL, but almost everything I need is fine as wine!
(I still am not happy with Asus-based 3.X yet - hoping for an Acer-based version 2.5 or something higher ... or version 4)

Pretty sure that is just running the Adam or Bottle of Smoke ROM.
The 3.01 they reference is the Honeycomb version, the 2.X referred to here is version of the Bottle of Smoke mod by Roebeet.
Bottle of Smoke
Just got it running today. It took me several hours to figure out the process, but I have successfully loaded the software. I am running Smoke Alpha 3.3. I am experiencing problems with wifi which seems to only be available for about 10-20 minutes. Once it stops working I have to restart the system. I can't scan or restart wifi from with in settings. I did get vulkano to work but it to locked up when I tried to change channels. I couldn't get Dolphin HD to work -- it loads but won't render any web pages, but Firefox beta (5) seems to work just fine. For some reason I can't download opera 11 from the market but other apps install with not problem. I have tried a few basic games (for the grand kids) and they seem to be working ok.
Does anyone know if Netflix is working for Bottle of Smoke??
Not on my viewsonic. You can access your queue but you can't view any videos.

Except for Opera, all of those are (well) documented issues. Read through the last 10-20 pages in Roebeet's BoS thread at Slatedroid and you will see many other people talking about the same things.

I didn't like the little notification toggle issues on IX so went back to VIII and now Netflix is saying there is a newer version that it must be updated to in order to work. The one that came with the Rom is the no device check, so I uninstalled and tried the other to at no avail!?
Do we have to mess with the build prob a bit to think our tbolt is a different device? I know when I did that, Netflix actually showed up in the market! So I'm guessing this may work... Any ideas? Thanks!

So... I made my device look like an incredible, went to market, installed update (because our tbolt GBs won't have Netflix in the market yet) after update installed to the "no device check Netflix .apk and the original Netflix .apk I get a little farther, but get an error about maybe my device being removed from acct (which makes no sense) or the device has been removed from Netflix. Wtf! Anyone else having Netflix issues?

when I tried to rip the Apk from my Inc it was titled com.netflix.mediaclient-1.apk
it didn't work on my TB running bamf2.0beta5. I did get com.Netflix.mediaclient-2.API from another thread in the general section and it works fine.
It might be the emulation of the Inc that is getting you an incompatible apk from the market.
I just updated the YouTube app to the 4.1.23 version, and I absolutely HATE the new UI. Granted, I figured I might as well live with it.... until I decided to try a 3D video and found that it won't play in 3D either.
Is this a setting you have to enable or did the update remove 3D playback as well as set the UI back several decades?
If so, how do I downgrade to the previous version? I am not entirely sure what version number the previous version even was. Is there any trustworthy place I can get the APK for that?
3D works just fine for me on the latest update.

if there was YouTube app in your Rom, you can go to manage apps and uninstall the YouTube update.
Strange, all 3D videos are only playing side-by-side for me, I don't see any options anywhere for 3D mode.

Will that uninstall the latest update, or all updates?
Try restarting your phone because its well known that when 3D doesnt work in Gallery or anywhere else a restart normally fixes that.
Just tried watching this clip on my Evo 3D and it works just fine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSGfN9rr78Q
I tried several restarts. All my 3D photos, videos, and games still run fine, but trying to play 3D video on the new youtube app just puts the videos side-by-side instead of in 3D mode.
What ROM are you running?
Stock Gingerbread
I've been meaning to upgrade to a rooted version of stock ICS but haven't gotten around to it, mainly figuring out what id have to do.
Does the same for me. Everything is side by side. Stock 3vo

Easy rooting for you dude, revolutionary way of unlocking for gb, I did it also on gb
(don't ask me for help, as I couldn't care less if you phone explodes,eh!!!)
I broke my wifi tether. I am rooted STOCK via Adams Suck it Verizon program, I installed the record call mods and the ultra cool light saber sounds for my s pen. I added Wifi toggle button and the shutter sound option and black background thru csc menu. Tether was working used it to stream netflix on the PSC for about 4 episodes of Twilight Zone. ALL good so far. After I added the new custom Perseus kernal it stopped working.
No brainer right? must be a problem in the kernel that isnt addressed yet. Still got to love the great work from our Devs and not the end of the world. I created a stock Kernel from Adams Revision3 rom that I had already downloaded and put it in thru recovery.
Still no WIFI tether. Now I'm stuck my "no brainer" just became "oh eff." Anyone have ideas on what else may need to be done? Or what I might have done unintentionally. I can reboot to stock and start tweaking all over but I really didnt want to and please dont comment on the fact that I'm too much of an idiot to have made a back up before I lost the tether.:crying::crying:
I'm still interested in any ideas but I wont be able to implement the fixes anyway to try. Gave up and Reinstalled the rooted stock rom complete already.

Hmmm dude idk you should have backed up but you know that. You may have to go back to stock. Have you tried a third party app?

Oh my, I wonder if we still have any photon 4G users around here... I'll try with some wishful luck :laugh:
Stock ROM, 2.3.5, Sprint, Root Only.
Youtube Version : 5.0.21 = videos play fine directly via the app when connected on 3G/4G but never on WiFi, error : There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry. - this error just started last month. Cache/Data clears did nothing. I have a Nexus 7 Stock Android 4.4.X tablet that also connects & plays youtube videos to the same Wifi network without a problem. Other data-related apps (e.g. gmail, browser) work fine.
Interestingly, I can still view youtube videos on other apps like Reddit News, PVStar+ Pro (both on Wifi + 3g/4g). It's just when directly loading the youtube app, this error appears. I can search and see content but all I get is that Touch to Retry" I tried uninstalling back to the original stock version of youtube that originally came with the photon and it was able to play via WiFi, but I lose my option to view embedded videos on Reddit News app (needed v5.0.21 to do that).
So I'm rooted + have my MSL if needed to edit anything. Has anyone experienced this or found a better apk version that works?
Yep!
Getting the same issue on my end.
Honestly stopped using my phone to do anything like game or watch videos since I got it.
Much rather buy a new phone than bother with all the problems I've gotten using this one.
I know this is offtopic but I just found this post on the atrix forum about a photon user flashing the atrix's 4.4.4 kitkat rom on his phone. The thread is titled "MB855need some help". He states that everything seem to work fine but, the camera, light and distance sensor, and button's light don't work. He was trying to get attention from devs to make it work on this phone but it seems they are already too busy with other projects, so I was thinking if we could get some attention from a dev for this phone we could get an almost-working kitkat rom. You can find the 4.4.4 kitkat rom in the atrix's development forum.

I am temporarily back on my Photon. My use of videos on WiFi has never been an issue. I am using GSM on a formerly Sprint CDMA model. I had the update that prevented full unlock, but I was able to modify everything necessary regardless. So, I don't know if my configuration is standard, but I have my old files on the SD card. I'd be glad to help if I can. I can look at this more tomorrow sometime. I was just wandering by as I was working on my new phone... it's late.
I used the one out of mof 2.3.5 ish rom and it works perf3ct. If I update I get the error again

Bringing this topic again for 2015 as it seems like it's still never been resolved for the photon 4g to install the latest youtube update on google play (it's been like this for such a long time, and the only version that still seems to work with some functionality at least if playing videos via the in-app embedded view feature on the reddit news app, this is youtube v5.0.21) - That same version won't play anything if you launch the youtube app on its own - would love to hear if any Photon 4G CMDA survivors have found any workarounds in getting this to work or if you have another higher/newer youtube apk build version, please let us know what that is - thanks
Everything else on the Moto P4G is still working great... for regular voice/data-mms-text/gmail/.web browsing on firefox app, it's still doing fine.
Also, looks like PVStar+ Pro/Regular have been taken off the Google Play Store... which was really the only viable alternative to youtube + the photon 4g. If you know of any other apps that still work for gingerbread like this, it would be good to just know too.
p.s. emailing youtube developers has yet to ever get a response (e.g. been trying around 1x a month).
