youtube.com isn't working

A few days ago i updated my SGS to Android 2.2. Of course i looked forward to the new flash player and all the functions.
As i saw in some video reviews, i wanted to go to youtube.com, the desktopversion just as on computers. But i always get linked to m.youtube.com, the mobile version. And the videos won't open in the browser, they open in the regular youtube app.
I tried the preinstalled browser, opera and skyfire, none of them worked.
Strangely Kino.to works just fine. I'm able to watch Vids from Megavideo (didn't try other providers).
Does anybody know how to fix the yt problem?

Open the stock browser and see if you can see this option:
MORE>settings>UA STRING
If yes, choose desktop and restart browser and go key in the URL you want to view. It should show you the desktop version of that site

After looking for the uastring settings on the net, i found out that on froyo you have to type "about:useragent" into the adress bar. Then a popup opens and let you choose between various options. Choose Desktop and it works
Thanks you

Either you use that method or install a browser with UA options like what I have. See screenshot.

Which browser is it?

Dolphin and xScope are able to change the User Agent.
So is Skyfire if I remember right.

I really don't want to lose Google Chrome just for that, is there an alternative for Chrome to Phone but for chrome?

Read it Later is an excellent app that also has Chrome extensions.

If you go into Tools>Extensions and click Options under Chrome to Phone, what happens?

You can try Springpad. They have a Chrome extension (that you can use to cut and save web pages and make notes right from the omnibar/extension bar and an app (web app) for Chrome. They also have an android app. I use the extension to cut and save web pages and images and send them to my phone (or if I need to, I edit said page or image first in the web app....)

HBO go?

Trying to watch HBOgo from browser. Set as desktop user agent. I can get to the log in screen but the keyboard won't pop up to enter credentials. Doesn't seem like curser is even getting to text field. Its a flash site I think.
Can anyone tell me how to watch HBO go? Must watch game of thrones!
If it matters, I am running stock, but am rooted. Tried with dolphin browser.

I got the LTE 8.9 running stock and rooted. I'm using Dolphin HD and I can go there just fine set as desktop agent. I'm watching the game of thrones and other movies and shows fine. No issues.

Great app................... flipboard is now for android(Not officially)
Flipboard is a social-network aggregation, magazine-format application software for Android and iOS... Social networking and news together in single app.
You know Flipboard is exclusive only to the Galaxy S III? Sure, you can stand in line and wait for the official launch for the Android app, but since we are all buddies here...
It is extracted from galaxy s3 using AirDroid. So, there you go.
for working widget install app in internal storage (not on sdcard)

Spotify Web

Just thought I'd mention as I cant see it posted anywhere that "Spotify Web" works great on N7 using the latest Firefox browser with flash installed, great now they have dropped the five play restriction on free accounts.

This work over Data?

So I do have flash installed but this is what I get.

Flash is disabled by default in Firefox, have you enabled it in settings?

Yep that worked for me, I previously had plugins set to tap to activate, changing to enabled did the trick. Brilliant find I can now use my free Spotify account on my tablet without premium to make the app work.
It doesn't work with the the screen off or with Firefox in the background but it's handy none the less.

Forgot to mention there are a few addons for firefox to keep it in desktop mode to save you switching it manually, I'm using the "Desktop by default" addon.

Thanks, this will come in handy for the music I can't find on music unlimited, they had to lift the 5 tune restriction because people went to other premium services for less, got to pull people back in somehow.
Just looked at my playlists in spotify......nearly a year old.

Didn't work for me. Have plugins set to 'enabled' on desktop site, but no go.
