Dear dev's
I've got another idea hope you can do something with it
I was wondering if it would be possible to tweak the youtube app so you can turn the screen off during a video i.e. if you just want to listen to the music and don't want to drain your battery with the screen on when it's not being used.
When you press the "end call button" it shuts everything off so I'm fairly sure that's not the way to go
Maybe just a simple button in the menu list. Menu > "Music mode" or something like that.
Happy hacking!

There's so many things wrong with that...
-Youtube is a video service, not a music service, so, for listening to music, a music service is recommended and they will play with the screen off.
-Youtube's audio quality is horrendous, so again, music service 2, youtube 0.
-With Youtube, you download the audio PLUS the video which you don't plan on using, so you're using additional bandwidth for nothing. Even if you do have an unlimited data plan, the additional data downloaded has drained your battery a bit more than just downloading an audio stream. Music Service 3, Youtube 0.
If you MUST do Youtube, the only way I've gotten it to work is by pressing the "END" button while the video is playing. The music will stop right there, but then when the screen is off, press "BACK" once to bring up the lockscreen up again and then music will resume playing with the screen on at the lockscreen instead of the video screen. There's no way to play Youtube videos with the screen off, so lowering your brightness might be the best option here.

- Okay got me there so what kind of FREE music service would you recommend?
- The sound quality is horrendous, but it is a nice alternative if you're on the move and don't have a particular song with you.
- Ofcourse the battery drains when downloading the video, but don't you think that if you have the screen on as well, it drains even more?
Well, I don't fully agree with your arguments, but I look forward to hearing a response for the free music service

I played around with the trackback settings under accessibility, don't remember what I did, now everytime I'm driving the navigation went from the woman that used to speak through the music, now it's a man who pauses the music player everytime it announces a direction. extremely annoying, how can I fix this? tried searching around, found nothing helpful.
Anyone who has used an iPhone knows what the music player app is like; it always, ALWAYS keeps track of where you left off while listening to a track or a podcast, and always continues from where you left off even after a reboot.
Is there any 3rd party music player app for Android that can do that?? I have podcasts that are hours and hours long, and it's a pain when I listen to a part of it, leave the music player to do something else, come back and find out that I can't continue from where I left off.
Hi
I have the 9gag app and use it for browsing the 9gag forum. Lately, there started to appear in the 9gag forum many new GIF with sound track, which are very unpleasant when you are listening to your music while browsing 9gag at the same time!
The 9gag app doesn't have any option to disable sounds from GIF of videos, so what I need is some way to edit the app and remove the sound playing when the GIF runs. Does it make sense?
I already tried to look for some app services to disable (with My Android Tools), but found nothing suspect.
Thanks for any suggestion.

I've noticed the phone audibly clicks when a video in a social media app like Twitter or facebook starts to autoplay.
Phone is on silent/vibrate. Media volume is off too but still clicks.
Issue seems to be intermittent too.
It only clicks when you have moved on a screen where a video has started playing, i.e after scrolling through some images and then come across the video that starts autoplaying. If you go from one playing video, scroll down and the next one auto plays as the other video stops it doesn't click. It's really distracting but very feint at the same time. Anyone else noticed this?

Yes I've noticed it too. When scrolling through videos that auto play, namely Instagram. And mine is also intermittent. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this.

Supposedly fixed with update .122
Good.
Would be even better if LG released notes indicating all buz fixes with 122 to help us, you know, their customers...
