is it me or is the youtube video's quality a load of blocky and blurry ? and why is the pictures in the browser and internet blurry and blocky 2?
1.is there a way to make any of these clear?
2.is this going to be fixed in a update
3.is this going to be what it going to be like as the iphone and other fones have clear pictures and videos
what? my youtube and pictures in browser have perfect quality...
my guess is that your internet is too slow for youtube (try wifi) or something is really messed up with your phone...i havent heard anyone else complain about this.
i just changed it to wifi is crystal clear now thanx for the tip but when on 3g it nowhere near as clear why is this the 3g is strong where i live and fast as i live in london england best signals are in london any one know why this is?
....and do you know a way i could get it clearer like the wifi and do you only use wifi ? or is your 3g the same as you wifi?
haha i have EDGE until my carrier launches 3g in a few months (my carrier is really small and not national)
my guess is that in order to watch youtube over 3g an dhave it not skip they reduced the video quality? maybe if you paused it and let if buffer?
i'm not sure about the pictures in browser though...i'm pretty sure those should load correctly in 3g...
I live in new york and when I watch video on 3g they look very clear to me and the internet pictures are also clear,maybe you should check how much space the youtube data and browser data is taking up and delete it. I don't know if this will help but you should give it a try

i know that the Kaiser lacks video performance...but...being that MobiTV comes preinstalled with the Tilt, i would have assumed it performs better than 1 frame every 3 seconds... I never did try MobiTV when i first got my tilt with the AT&T rom, this is my first time using it. I'm using my active sync connection (which i thought was the fastest) and the picture (ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A PICTURE) refreshes every 3 seconds while the audio plays.
Also the quality is horrible...

Works fine for me, the talking heads talk and move as expected. Sometimes it lags, but most of the time it doesn't.
The only time I've seen it go painfully slow is when I've been on AT&T's Edge network (which is atrociously slow, even though it's max capabilities can be faster, must be all those iPhones ) or when HSDPA is giving me less than 700k/s from DSL Reports.
Hope this helps!
Moving this to Kaiser software, as this isn't ROM related.

woops! didnt realize i posted in the rom section. thanks.
lol actually no it doesnt help, im not sure what to do to fix it..but thanks for the reply!
Hi all, when i first got my diamond, it played youtube clips via HSDPA internet without any problems. Since i've installed newer roms, youtube does not play clips anymore. The only way to get it to work is activate Wifi, and play it through wifi internet. With HSDPA internet, i can download lists and search for clips in the youtube application, but as soon as i try to start the clip, it errors after a while saying the clip cannot be played. Im using the newest official dutch rom 2.03.404.2NLD with Vodafone. A friend of mine, who has the same phone and rom, has the same problem. I've tried installing different versions of the youtube application, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Does anyone else have this problem?
Does your ROM have the Adobe Flash player?
Yep, i've installed several flash lite versions, no luck... Strange thing is, every once in a while it will load the movie, so it seems like some movies will actually load. Still, when I turn on Wifi, it'll allways loads the clips... BTW, i have full clearance, so it isn't like im not getting enough 3G signal...
Got the same problem.
I'm using a rooted Samsung I5700 (spica) and youtube fails to play videos over HSDPA. - It loads thumbnails and all the other bits and parts.
Wifi works. 2G works. And 3G works if I disable HSDPA.
So what is wrong?
I found a thread on here from back in December about this but no one had any ideas how to enable it.
I thought I saw in some custom roms where something had been pulled from the Ion or possibly a different YouTube.apk that allows the higher quality youtube videos over 3G.
Anyone know how this can be done on a general basis to a rooted phone? I'm using Cyanogen's latest stable rom but it doesn't seem to have anything special to enable this.
Oh, and I'm pulling a solid 1 - 1.5Mbps on AT&T so I'm sure I've got the bandwidth.

I'm using Cyanogen's latest stable mod and I have an option while watching YouTube movies to watch the higher quality version (click menu during the video). You have either got to be in a 3G area or on a decent WiFi connection.

God, it must be obvious to everyone else but me! Thanks so much!
Now... if only you could make high quality the default.
??
-James
dont think you can default it through the options it gives you
this doesnt belong here, but the higher quality by default is only available when you have wifi enabled. It has something to do with not forcing the extra data strain on your 3g data plan (for those who have metered one)
Ok, so I tried taking a photo while on a call earlier. Appearently you CAN'T. Camera app won't even start. Anyone got a clue to why this would be? It was just so unexpected.
Cause of camera being reserved for video calling....
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
that just sucks, I used to take pics with my old K800i whilst in a call. Not tried it on my O2X yet.

How does that make sense? Is LG locking the camera because they want us to ONLY use it for video calls when we're in a call? Or do they need to have it on "standby" in the far fetched case that we'd actually need it for a video call? Can you even change between normal call and a video call? Never tried video calling.
Instead of just letting us take a ****ing photo.
Edit: more importantly, how do we bypass it?
"Is LG locking the camera because they want us to ONLY use it for video calls when we're in a call? Or do they need to have it on "standby" in the far fetched case that we'd actually need it for a video call?"
Something like that.
Whilst only the frontcamera can be used for video calling this restriction still doesn't make any sense...

both front and rear cameras are reserved for 3G video calling.
Why does it not make sense? this is the way the phone is designed for users like myself who use 3G video calling regularly. I chose to buy this phone because of this capability - I use it to interact with my kids when I am travelling.
most video call capable mobiles are designed like this. both front and rear cameras are reserved so that you can switch between the cameras depending on what you want to display to the caller. my wife will switch her Nokia N8 to the rear camera when the kids are running around or dancing so I can see them, then switch back when she talks to me. I use my LG O2X cameras during a video call in the same way.
IMHO, it is a well designed phone. now that the stability and battery issues with the ROM are sorted out, it is a real pleasure to use as both a work phone and for fun.

I get how the camera works while in a video call. Reserving it for that purpose while in a normal call still doesn't make any more sense though. Ancient phones can do it. It's like saying you can't use the speaker for games, only music.
Hello,
I have an Optimus Black with cyanogenmod 10 Stable working really good, (rooted ofcoarse) I have unlimited data plan so I was wondering if anyone knows of any good internet speed tweaks, I mean for when i'm tethering wireless to my pc is there any build prop tweaks or anything to help improve the speed? I mean to be honest it's not that bad now I get about 1-4mbs down (depending on what time of day) and average 1.6 mbs up which the upload is really good and I do alot of online gaming to, my speed is good for that its just when i'm buffering a youtube video on my pc it is okay sometimes but it just randomly stops buffering and won't continue until I restart the vid or refresh the page and it could do with being quicker and its really slow with hd buffering 480p is the highest i can go with having to wait lol and the other thing is when ever i load a video it always start in 144p or the lowest qaulity there is lol and then I switch to 480p and it buffers okay so whats the point in starting at low quality lol and it start in 144p but actually when you see the vid the quality looks like 480p then changes to 144p lol confusing, so if anyone knows anymore build prop tweaks or just any general tweaks please
Thank you

Hi,
The fact it stop buffering at a moment may not be the internet connection speed but rather that the connection is interrupted maybe due to bad coverage or something like that.
If you want a tweak you may try Pimp my ROM available on play store.
