So here is the thing!
Suddenly one day my Samsung Galaxy S3 decided to f$#k with my mind!
On facebook , when they post a youtube link and i tap on it says "Complete action using... " and it gives me the option of internet and youtube !
NOW youtube is gone and it is not an option anymore ! and i noticed that it is not with the youtube links , it is with play store too.. i dont have the option play store anymore!
But before you start to tell me to clear the cache . clear defaults and stuff , you should know that i already done that. i even unistalled youtube updates to see if this will fix it!
So please , anyone?!? Some thoughts?!!!??!??!?!
Thanks!
I'm not completely sure what could be the problem, but if it only happens when you would like to open a link from the Facebook app it is because fb redirects every link to there servers, and that way your phone cannot parse it as YouTube link.

When I click on video links on facebook, it shows me a list of browsers to choose app which will open video. there is no Youtube app in the list.
I tried clear defaults / delete data for both apps: Facebook and Youtube but without any results.
The problem is, that the link is redirected over Facebook. So the App does not recognize it as a YouTube-link.

I really wish facebook would give us an option to disable this crap. I don't need this. Really really annoying. That's what's going on. Android will open up youtube videos with the domain youtube.com but facebook makes it m.facebook.com/something or another and youtube doesn't know that domain.
Like the Google music, Google books, Google movies wanna use them but not in usa then you are at right place
Well first of all this is not made by me I found it on xda but I forgot where
Well what you need is rooted phone.
Download market enabler(Google it) and install it. Now download DROID vpn from play store and make an account
Ok now go to settings and delete play store data and cache
Open market enabler and choose any us carrier I used tmobile but it should work with any now open DROID vpn and press start. Click on the flag icon in the top left corner and choose us server.
Open Google play store and voila Google music, Google books everything is there you can download them
I downloaded Google music and Google books and even downloaded some books and it's working fine no problem just try and press it if it works for you

I have been using Songza on my iPhone 4 in the US but now it's not available in Google Play in my region even though it's a free app. Can anyone share the apk or point me to a site that allows me to download it? Thanks.

Use google for searching the APK, just search for "songza apk", the first one to appear is the apk4 .us site, donwload it and try to use it. If it says that you are outside the US, assuming you are rooted, just download Orbot, a Tor's Client. I live in Argentina and like many others, can't use Songza or Pandora, but this little app do the trick. Search it on the Play Store.
Once you launch it for the first time it ask you for rooted permissions, then it ask you for the apps that will go trhough Orbot, click the "Select Apps.." button, wait for the list of apps installed on your phone and then check Songza, go back and when it shows you the Large button press for 2 seconds, it begins to connect to the Tor network, once it goes Green.....ALELLUYA!!!!!
Luanch again Songza and there you go listening for your favorites tunes!!!!
Remember to go through the Options in Orbot for uncheck the "Start with the system" option.
By the way, with that little bastard of Orbot, you can make any app "shows" you on the US, like I said before, I live in Argentina, and besides Songza and Pandora, I use Last.fm, Hulu, Rdio, and so on...
Good luck!
.... rather than youtube app.
Hey guys,
Pretty self explanitory question.
I have tried Boat Browser and Dolphin, and they both behave the same way. If I google search for a youtube video through one of those browsers, and I click the youtube link from the google results... it will go to the youtube mobile page within the browser (rather than open the youtube app and play the video).
Anyone know how to force the youtube app to always play videos linked from browsers?
Thanks for any help.
U can try tubemate for watching Youtube Videos in different resolutions and Also you can download them...

After you were at YouTube website, scroll down then find settings and that will be mobile version option there

Check if you have defaults set for those browsers (clear them if yes).

Just set your browsers Web to mobile version instead of desktop and I recommend you to use uc browser.

I guess you didn't Google? Google: 'save facebook video on phone' and you get an app in the first line of search results...

Because you made the video player the default app to launch whenever you tap facebook videos if you're on 4.3 press and hold the home button then tap the first option to your left now look for clear defaults tab. You'll see all the default apps there for specific stuff or the longway by going to settings manage apps look for your default video player and tap clear defaults. Then your problem will be solve. Next time read before you tap

Im pretty sure that i didnt choose any video player as default, i even double checked and cleared defaults from gallery, but still facebook automatically plays the videos using a built in video player in facebook.
I think that the new update of the facebook app, doesnt allow anymore external applications to play the video, it plays the video from the application itself.
Are you sure this is not happening to you

Solution!
Well the only solution is:
1. If you want to download a video, first of all go to video comments and type something.
2. then go to your profile main one where you see Activity LOG.
3. after that you will see your comment log, tap on it and now you can choose tabs..:!
