Hi,
I just thought I'd share my experiences with testing different versions of the YouTube application in hopes to be able to surpass the 720p limitation & reach 1440p. In full disclosure, I'm running the stock rom, rooted, with 2 Xposed modules running: YouTube AdAway & YourTube. I started said journey by uninstalling updates. That led me back to version 5.5 (from version 5.10.3.5). Nothing to see there. So I jumped up to version 5.9.0.10 courtesy of apkmirror.com. No luck with that one. Same result with 5.9.0.12, 5.9.0.13, 5.9.3.8, & 5.9.4.9. I moved on to the 5.10 series. 5.10.1.5 crashed thanks to my Xposed module. Installed 5.10.3.5 through the Play Store for gits & shiggles. Ironically, I could bypass 720p but only to 1080p. Not my goal but PROGRESS! For my Verizon LG G3, that is the highest version in the Play Store. However, apkmirror has version 5.11.4 in tow. That version completely removed the 1440p option for me. But the high still remains 1080p, instead of 720p.
Well, thanks for reading my little experiment.
I noticed this too, how come we can no longer watch 1080p or 1440p video? This worked fine before so do we just need an older youtube apk? Why would they remove this feature?

Actually just uninstall your Youtube app and reinstall this one: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k1z2y730k9cmqdo/youtube-5.9.0.10.apk?dl=0
Brings it back, I guess they removed it for some reason.
How did you configure YourTube? Thanks in advance

Why on earth would they remove such a feature?
I don't know, 1440p worked fine, but I had the same troubles as the OP.
In the youtube app few posts back the widget for xperia z is back also i see

Currently, it's disabled. Usually, I just have my Default Pane set to My Subscriptions. Which should be a stock feature, IMO.

I am trying to use my Touchpad with CM9 installed to watch movies with Flixster. But when I load the app and try to stream my movies it tells me that it has detected that I have rooted (Dah) and can't stream movies.
How can I fix this to allow me to use this app?
Side question to. Apps in the Market say they will not work with my device even though they will. How do I get the Android Market to allow me to still stall apps that say this?
Thanks
you mean with the google videos app? i dont think flixster plays movies. they do previews.
Try OTARootkeeper. Why the h*** does almost every android video app think that if you root you are trying to pirate content.

Flixster allows you to stream and/or download movies using Ultra Violet. I'm having the same problem and I'm running CM10.

Actually I just downloaded "Hide My Root" from the Play Store, hid SU Binary, & now Flixster is working for me. Success!

I posted that over a year and a half ago. I know that they do that now but I'm pretty sure they didn't do that then.

I originally found this on the N7000 forum.
If you have seen the ability to watch a video while doing another task for the Samsung Galaxy 3, then this is it.
Pretty much the same deal. Works well with the Note i717.
I am running the Hybrid ROM in Tablet mode and this app works great.
You can find this app in the Play Store. Here's a demo vid - copied link from app description.

The split screen ability in the Note 10.1 would be another great feature to have now...
Great find

Its an awesome app.
Btw, this app already comes pre-installed in the HYFR B4 ROM.
Is it safe for an app to collect a device's imei to their server? The EULA claims that it is used to verify the device. It is in the privacy policy.
thats similar to stickit..i have used for a while now.. idk which one is better though
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS5teWJveWZyaWVuZGlzYWdlZWsuc3RpY2tpdCJd
the one you posted is better looking..im trying it out now!!
Compared to Stick It, this app is better. I really like it! Great Find!

OK all, while this app seams to have everything I would want it has one major thing I don't want LAG. just wondering is it doing this to everyone or just me? What I mean is this, when it plays a video it plays about 2 sec then buffers, but in the youtube app the same video will play with no issues. I am useinf the free version and have un installed and re installed it already. Also I am getting throttled speeds on ATT however as I have said youtube works just fine. Any ideas?

I haven't experienced any lag as of yet. Both on Flapjaxxx's UCLE2 and CM9.
@spade1031
No lag here and I'm still on FJ's GB ROM.
With more use I've noticed it seems to be only YouTube and only.the hd videos, any other site with hd works fine and the YouTube app with hd works fine. Might just be that I'm throttled, I'll post back after my new bill cycle and update. Just asking is anyone else throttled and working right? By the way I'm only getting hspa+ in my area. But still a GREAT app for anyone, thanks again for sharing.

EDIT: working fine now that I'm not throttled
Been playing with this for a couple days, pretty cool, no real issues to report on paranoid android.
Full screen low framerate
App: Supervideo (HW Decode)
I am experiencing low frame rate when switching to full screen. When the video is floating, it's perfectly fine.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
App: MX Player (Free)
Full screen is perfectly fine.
I've been a-hacking, and just made this video showing a range of things you can do with the Q:
http://youtu.be/6rb4iQDBom0
This includes 3D streaming of games through OnLive, potentially making the Q comparable to the Xbox despite not having as beefy hardware.
Let me know what you think, and please add to this list of functionalities if you can.

I have xbmc installed on my Q...
it launches, doesn't force close. I can't test it better until my otg cable arrives so I can connect a keyboard. For now I am controlling the Q via siaxis PS3 controller so I'm still having to send occasional commands via adb.
For now I can only move around the interface in XBMC - not sure what key to send in order to select any of the menu items yet - enter doesn't work and neither do mouse clicks.
Found a recent xbmc apk here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...eres-what-it-looks-like-running-on-a-nexus-q/
not so bad
What the artist/song in the video...the youtube info doesnt match...at all.
To control the Q look into the official XBMC remote app in the market. Sends commands via http.

FYI, today's B&N Free Friday app is the full version of Puffin Web Browser. It has built in flash, and my understanding is, its flash is not processed locally but sent thru a cloud. There is a free version of Puffin in the Play Store but its flash capability only works for a brief trial period.

Puffin is awesome for speed! I use the free version. Great browser for devices that cannot get Chrome. (Infact, its faster then Chrome )
P.S. I don't see how this is free

Only problem for me is, I don't have any way of loading it, since I've got CM10 on the emmc. Oh well. Maybe I'll download it on my wife's HD and copy it over somehow.

It is free today only in the B&N app store. You need to use stock firmware (internally or on an SD card) to acquire it. If your stock is rooted you can make app backups with Titanium Backup.

Hi,
I found that the youtube preinstalled app with latest updates limits me to view videos with max resolution of 360p. I have D620r with v10g OS. I know that when I bought the phone I could watch 480p videos but idk what i've done. I tried uninstalling the updates but still nothing. I wonder if the v10g update broke this
Are you sure that you can't watch videos at 480p even if you could watch those specific videos in the past?

Yes. I'm very sure.
If your device is rooted, download Xposed framework and download the module YouTube for it which will make you able to put the default pane shown when app started and also force a max default resolution

Updated to latest version, already had root and xposed but the experimental features for resolution don't work tried 720p 1080p 2160p but it still remains 360p. Also activated override compatibility checks. What now?

Wait? You wanted it to stick 480p right? Then set it to that. this is just a tool I use to make it stick to it, and not degrade in quality. Don't put it higher than the hardware allows

I can choose 480p im YouTube on my stock V10F.
I raised my g2m res to 720p with a script, so it goes while booting, so all apps recognize as native resolution, because it changes before system starts, and then this res becomes available to use in YouTube.
