You tube's safe search filtering - EVO 4G General

You tube says no video found, even though results say 412 found. I tried going to settings and changing SAFE SEARCH FILTERING, but not available? Any idea why?

HTC's response
An email from HTC:
"This feature has been disabled per the carrier. If you wish to search for content that is something that would be blocked by a “safe search” then I would recommend going to Http://www.m.youtube.com using your Internet browser on the phone. This will allow you to search for things with out a filter."
Looks like Sprint has blocked this feature?! How lame.
Will re-post this info, as I see two threads on this same issue.

Just received the same response from HTC today.

Thanks for the great info!

Hi, does any one know what's happened to the national rail app?
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
I didn't even know there was one for Android! It's a brilliant app on the iPhone and if it exists on Android I'm on that in a flash...
So if it does exist where has it gone?...

do a search for UK national rail app Android, your see it has been out there but its no longer on market.
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
It's a protected application, the HTC Desire still hasn't been approved for access to protected apps on the market.
If you had it on a previous android handset and backed it up to the SD card, you' d be able to reinstall it from there.
I have it, but have no form of webhosting. Anybody want to PM me on how to do it and I will put it up for those that want it??
By the way, it works fine on the Desire
I found the app here:
http :// www . nationalrail . ktbm . com
Works a treat. Remove the spaces from the URL first. You will also need to manually install (as that location only allows the download).
"To prevent spam to the forums, new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages. All new user accounts will be verified by moderators before this restriction is removed."
I obviously need my new (?!?!?!?!) account verified by moderators...grrr - could someone please fix that for me - isn't 6 years old enough? Thanks

It also disappeared from the market for g1's and heros so I'm guessing they are having issues

That's a different national rail app
My apologies. Can I take it that you're after the actual time table then?

No, there is an app written by the bloke that writes the iPhone one that's quite a slick looking bit of kit.
It appears as purchased on my G1 but doesn't appear on anything else if you search market (and if you search for it on the g1 it brings back nothing). I'm guessing its been taken down due to licensing but we will see once the protected apps thing gets sorted out on the desire.
I take it you mean this app http://uk.androlib.com/android.application.com-ktbm-nationalrail-zDFC.aspx I had it on my Hero and loved it. Really miss it, dunno why I cant see it on the market though....
yes that's the 1, does any 1 know when its going to be available?

This is the official app and it is the copy protected one, the other unofficial ones were removed from the marketplace.
I understand that it is copy protected but I was saying that it is also not showing in the market any more on the g1 or the hero for some reason.

Skype for Wildfire

Does anyone have skype for Wildfire?
no skype for android so far.
there was a skype lite client but i think they stopped dev. on it.
I use Nimbuzz and works great,
i heard there is no skype for android but i wan't sure
hmm now i found this here http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/get-skype/on-your-mobile/skype-mobile/android/ iam really confused now ???
Isn't it only available for specific phones listed on the website, is it?
Yes it seems so. I read somewhere else that till the end of the year there should be out a version for every android device. Hmm strange anyway.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Its Not Yet available for HTC wildfire. Even for Android they seem to have versions specific to phone models. I would suggest that everyone can visit http://m.skype.com from phone browser..and they can check periodically.
It seams that skype is out for android devices but I cannot find it on the market in wildfire...
Is there some problem with skype and this device?
Yes, not suppprted display res...
Can somebody provide the apk file?
you can install it via appbrain webinstaller, but at least for me, it crashed what ever i wanted to do

I also installed it with appbrain (and fastwebinstaller)
It opens fine, I can login en view my contacts, open the dialer, get a notification in the status bar whenever someone skypes me,
but when I try to press a contact to chat it just crashes...
I managed to install it also, but same problem here crashes all the time, uninstalled...
Too bad for skype, => sipdroid is the best program for me...

Zorkman, That dont really matter though, means you can use it anywere and mobile net is pretty cheap in the uk.
The thing is, the Skype looks ok on the Wildfire. I mean, i didn't notice any problems related to low resolution, just the Force Closing ones. Which is strange, because as far as I know the original response from the developer was that Skype DOES NOT support Wildfire's Low Resolution, and it DOES. 'll be waiting for someone with more info.

[Q] MySpace Login Fails everytime?

Hey, so I can't seem to find an answer yet so I figured I'd just start a thread a pose the question.....
Since I've gotten my Epic I haven't been able to use the phones native myspace log in. It always tell me login failed try later. I tried it on stock and a number of custom roms and it all says the same thing. If I use the actual MySpace app everything connects just fine, I would just like to have that feature functioning too. Not a dealbreaker by any means, just a little annoying thats all.
If anyone can give me some advice as to potential fixes or if that's just something that hasn't worked at all, it would be appreciated.
Wow people, no responses? Am I the only one that has this problem or something?
Who even goes on myspace anymore? Lol

It could be Sprints proxy? Do a search on resetting your phones proxy settings.

yes. probably because you're the only one using Myspace

Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
still searching for an answer.....
Okay, so, while this is by no means a deal breaker nor am I going to have a fit if it doesn't work, giving me answers like "why does it matter myspace is dead" isn't exactly the most constructive way to address my situation. Like my momma used to say, if you don't have something good to say....you know the rest.
Anyway, I'm still actively looking for a solution to this. I called up Sprint (should've known better but I did anyway) and that got me no where. I fired off a message to MySpace support today so I guess they have up to 48 hours to respond according to their little blurb after you send a message.
If anyone has any CONSTRUCTIVE tips, I would greatly appreciate any feedback. I would like to have all the features on my phone working (I mean hell, why not?), and just cuz MySpace is dead for some, doesn't mean it's not still a viable network for others.
PS: That whole proxy settings thing someone suggested earlier....never found anything about that, don't know if that was a smoke screen or not but if not can you elaborate and possibly show me where you got that idea from?

No video playing capability at all...

Today, my daughter asked me to watch a Youtube video in my phone. I opened up the application and found the video she wanted and clicked it...after a few seconds..."Sorry we cant play that video try again" pop up. i tried again and again and again and again to no avail... tried a different video...nothing.
Went to the browser, open Youtube clicked on a video and similar message appeared.."cant play that video"
Went to the market and downloaded the update for Youtube but besides the change of the layout and display, the same results.
Finally I went to Flixter to try and watch a trailer and the same result..."Sorry that video cant be played"
Finally after many and many retries, one video played but when I clicked it again to play, back to same old "sorry cant play video"
I have temporary root and have had it for a while with out any issues. I actually turned my phone off and lost root and tried to watch videos but no success.
I remember having similar issues with my Hero but hadn't had any problems with my Shift until now
Anybody else with this issues? Any fixes? .
Yes I have that issue on 3g. On wifi and 4g it works just fine though. Weird.

I had the same issue after messing with temp root on my shift. After many tries of updating, installing update, going to YouTube website and rebooting phone I couldn't get it to work for the life of me. I finally reset the phone to factory and have not updated my youtube app (shilling the version that shipped on phone) and now I have very high success rate unless I have less than 3 bars of signal then it takes a couple tries but it still plays fine. I hope that helps. Let me know if that helped any.

Check out upload and download speeds in the development forums. I was having these issues too. It seems sprint blocks something in there proxy that prevents streaming media at least some of it
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Here's the quick and dirty way to fix streaming. You need your msl. Go to dialer and hit ##3282#
Edit, enter msl, advanced.
Scroll all the way to the bottom. Last four fields make the ports 0 (zero) and other two 0.0.0.0
Reboot and streaming music should work, maybe video too. Something else I do is just download the damned video and watch it if the player is being stubborn. I like jetvd. You might find it in the market but the last time I looked it was gone. Your can Google jetvd android download and look for the URL that is jet's site. I don't remember what it was. They have a download link for the apk. I got it and installed and watch stuff that way when YouTube app is being a *****.
Yea thanx for reminding me, I forgot to mention I tried the proxy address mod for myself and actually caused me to lose all net capability. So from personal experience it didn't work but some users are swearing by the mod. That's another option. Me personally I try not to change settings like that in case down the road it breaks a future app and I forgot what I did etc etc. But its worth a try for the OP.

Same for me. Running stock non rooted.
Same thing is happening on my roomate's Shift. 3G is no go at all, 4G is hit or miss, works sometimes, and I didn't try wifi. aLogcat shows some error with mediaplayer and stagefright. I'll have to look again to remember the exact error/code. His phone is perma rooted, stock ROM and kernel.
I've ruu'd my phone a few times so far. You think that might of fixed any factory flash snafu? I didn't have this problem before ruu either. Sometimes YouTube app is very stubborn.

I haven't tried RUU yet, I dont think it's bothering him enough yet for me to go any further with it. Yes, the youtube app is very stubborn sometimes, as it always has been on my own Evo. However, this is happening (sorry, video cannot be played) whether its on the youtube app, or on youtube.com using the browser. Same results. Very strange.
Take this for what it's worth:
I went into the Sprint store and talked with some of the techs. They said they are aware of this issue with the Shift and the Evo. They say Sprint is working on a fix for this issue.
Lmao like Sprint and Samsung is getting froyo for the epic?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Good heads up on what the techs said. Hopefully its some simple and make the app more reliable considering hats the point of unlimited data I'd I can't even use the factory features. A minor issue but the principle of the fact. So far mine still being pretty consistent with playing videos except when in a weaker signal area.

Setting RTSP parameters to 0 and 0.0.0.0 made Youtube unwatchable over 3G. Setting those parameters back to their defaults fixed the problem.

I really wouldn't put any faith in the sprint techs. Like the poster above said...just look at their track record with releasing an official 2.2 for the epic =\
Sprint communicated to the stores that this is a known issue that will be resolved in future updates.

Are you guys experiencing an extremly slow forum? [VIDEO ADDED] Oct 30

Everytime I click a link, it would time out. Is it the slow network (due to billions of members) this forum is on? It really is getting frustrating.

Im not sure about that since only xda seems to be giving me this problem. it's like on back on 28k modem.. actually even worse since the page won't load at all. and Im not posting this on first sight of this issue. i've had this problem ongoing for the whole week. it's just xda for some reason.
thanks for the help tho!
most times i click a link in this forum, be it posts or post or whatever, this is what i get (and yes I got it while typing the above post as wel)
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9168318/20121027_163228.jpg
I'm really sorry, I might be being dumb but what is the photo showing? - am I missing an error message? (presume you added the "help me pease" bit)
Have you tried accessing from another device on the same network and on a different network? (Presume you have, based on the other stuff on your desktop I assume u are very tech savvy lol)
I don't know why this would happen unless servers that you use are different from mine - my local network AND broadband are terrible but the site still flies (I access with Tapatalk on an (said quietly) ipad 2). I do occasionally get pages come up that say the are completely empty but a quick refresh and they return - presume that that is because of site updates/refreshes
Someone else may be able to help more, will be interested to hear the solution - good luck
thanks for the reply,
the image above is what i see when i click a link on xda... the pages won't fully load. i know it's justs XDA because non of the other sites show this. sites such as engadget, anandtech, phandroid, google news, etc, they all work fine, this is frustrating because even when I try to reply to someone, it will hang on me.
Yes i faced the same thing today
