I can't upload videos to YouTube. When I go to the gallery and try to share via YouTube, it says "failed to retrieve account info" immediately. It does it so quickly that it's obviously not actually trying.
When I go to YouTube using the browser and try uploading from there, it crashes the browser and sends me back to the homescreen with no error message.
I am using CM6 nightly from 08062010.
Can anyone else recreate these problems?
i have the exact same problem! can anyone help?
Was this ever resolved?
I have the same issue when trying to upload to youtube with the 3g connection.
Turn on wi-fi and it uploads golden... just my 2 cents
I have gotten it working.
I had to go to YouTube on my computer and create a new account.
Then I opened the YouTube app and hit menu, then my account. Then use the new account to login.
It works great now. I wish that I could have used my "linked" Google account, but it's fine this way.
Now when I want to share via YouTube from the gallery that account is the automatically chosen one.
Wow that sucks I really wanted to use my existing account

Hey there, I would like to see gifs in my browser, since everytime I want to see them, I have to switch to Firefox, however, in firefox I dont have flash support, so I constantly change between browsers... Is there anyway to enable this in the default browser, or another browser which can do both?
Thanks!
Both work for me using opera.

Chrome app "Videostream for Google Chromecast™" (rebranded "Chromecast Video")
Chromecast Video v1.0.1 is gone from the Chrome Web Store. It has been replaced by Videostream for Google Chromecast™ 1.0.4:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromecast-video/cnciopoikihiagdjbjpnocolokfelagl
or
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/videostream-for-google-ch/ebfagpccbccalgocgjlfkahogjfhliab
I guess the only difference is apps name.
A Chrome App That Streams Local Video From Your Computer To Chromecast™
Temporary until Google gets everything back together.

1.0.4
After some Google drama, we're back up and running. Turns out they hated that our icon was so cleverly similar to their Chrome icon. We're back now, better than ever after being pulled for 3 days.

BTW: you can have both version installed.
Too bad, I though the old name was kind of catchy.
No other changes? I guess we can wait for the next update then.

The old name violated Google's Terms of Service I would imagine as well.
It very much violated many Google's branding guidelines haha.
Edit:
The latest update basically just updated the icons, etc... and added some share buttons.
Is there any way to control Videostream from a remote device? I've dabbled with RemoteCast but it didn't seem to pick up on the Videostream content.
Great app! Keep up the good work!
Anyway to add time stamps along with forward/rewind 30 seconds etc

I'm trying to launch the app from my chrome browser and it keeps giving me an error saying that we can't connect to your chromecast. I checked the list and I have Chrome browser installed on my laptop, google cast extension as well and both are using the same wifi. I just don't know why it is happening to me. I even disabled my kaspersky internet security, but no luck at all....Is anyone having the same issue with me ?

App Needs Launch Button
Great aoo Works flawlessly but have to go to Web Store to launch. No launch button in chrome toolbar,
I really like the app Videostream for Chromecast. However, there is not a button on the toolbar that allows me to launch it from chrome directly. I have to go to the Play Store and launch from there. Anyone else have this problem? I have not been able to find any references about this problem on any forums.
It's an app not and extension. I find the open apps button on the bookmark bar, and it's there.
More info HERE or you can add a button HERE
I see we have an end time on the timeline now!
Oh-- it should be in your Start menu / Spotlight.
I've been playing around with desktop mode quite a bit and overall it seems to be a good idea. With the exception of TeamViewer I could move my entire business day over to it quite easily. I'm using an Inapio hub and keyboard / mouse combo with a usb dongle.
Apps that I've found work well with it are:
1. All of the Microsoft apps. I mainly use the Outlook app and Microsoft Edge and have no complaints about either of them.
2. Enpass and Lastpass.
3. Most if not all of my banking apps work well.
Apps that don't work well:
1. Quite a few games. Some of the games that require taps don't recognise mouse clicks. Risk is one I can think of straight away.
2. TeamViewer (app-specific problem as it doesn't support remote desktop scaling from the Android app).
Bugs / annoyances I've found:
1. Quite often when clicking on buttons in browsers, email and other apps I have to click slightly off-centre to the left and below the button before the click is recognised.
2. When deleting the built-in apps from the desktop the rest of the icons don't auto-rearrange.
3. No auto-rearrange of icons.
4. Lacking a slideshow for the desktop background.
Do you use desktop mode and how do you find it?
How is performance and input lag? Is it smooth?
I couldn't get see Gmail. Which is a bummer since we use g-suite at work....
Apart from that it worked very well. My monitor has the most and keyboard plugged into it and the video about is a USB-C cable. When plugged into this the desktop is very well integrated with the most and keyboard working fine and the phone charging via the video cable as well. But as I said, no Gmail...
@Riio Performance is very good with no lag.
@palexr Yes, a bit odd that the gmail app isn't listed under the start menu. I think it must be about the only one that doesn't show up there. You could always use gsuite via a web browser?
One type of app that works well in desktop mode but not in phone mode is SIP / VOIP clients. I use Bria but have also tested Zoiper and both app stop running under the lockscreen; even with "ignore battery optimisation" enabled and yet Skype works perfectly.
Gmail app icon does not appear in the desktop, but if you receive Gmail notification and you click on it, Gmail will load. What I did was to pin to Task bar and now I have it in desktop. So all you have to do is to wait patiently for the notifications of your favourite apps to appear on the desktop.

Thanks, yes that worked - to a degree. I can open Gmail from the notifications and then pin it to the Task Bar as you say. However, clicking on the resultant icon will only open my private email and not my work one. However, if I get a work email, I get a notification which I can open and access my work emails - pinning that to the task bar will only open my private gmail.
So, yep it works, just need to send my work email an email.
Thanks.
What determines whether an app icon will appear or not in desktop mode ?
I tried it but could not find YouTube app for example in Desktop mode ? So how do I trigger other apps not shown in Desktop mode ?

What triggers the DPI used on an external screen? I have two screens - one 23 Dell monitor and one 23 Samsung SyncMaster TV/Monitor. Both support 1920x1080 however when I connect HM10P to a Samsung Screen I noticed the DPI is much lower than on the Dell one (same resolution).

Anyone know if there is a list of supported app in desktop mode, or some specific flag/tag to search for in Play Store. I'm interested also into Visio replacement and some PDF editors but can't understand what to search for.
I didn't understand if this mode is valid only for EMUI desktop (so that developers need to change their app to work specifically on EMUI) or a general Android optimization.
I found a way to add any app, though not all work properly.. Prime video for example, it loads, but video playback is just a black box..
Use another launcher (I used Nova), and open that launcher in desktop mode. Nova looks broken, but don't worry.. Double click (left mouse) on the blank home screen and app search opens.. Find your desired app, open it, then pin it to the bottom bar..
Enjoy
When using PC Mode is there a way to force fullscreen for 3rd Party apps.
I use the Huawei standard video player which is always fullscreen but for some videos there is no sound so I use VLC or MX Player. Cant seem to get rid of the taskbar below when using the other apps.

Same issue, a bit annoying, but nearly full screen.. Chrome won't go full screen in videos either, nor any other non stock video player I've tried..

Dang. Was hoping it was something I was not doing.
Emailed their support requesting they add this. Hopefully they enable with a software update.

This is what bothers me, I've been using terrarium app a lot lately, and casting my screen to our tv works just fine but since its using wireless connection, image quality is somehow affected and also the auto motion plus wont work, movements arent that smooth(was accustomed to 60fps). Tried using the desktop mode and image quality did improve and the auto motion plus now works but movies on mxplayer is not going on full screen.
Autocad mate 10 desktop mode
Someone can tell me if autocad app runs with desktop mode on mate 10?
Tested yesterday the Easy Projection mode, a huge disappointment from my expectations to get rid of my Windows laptop.
The Microsoft Suite is barely usable, the documents are resizing correctly but Word, Excel, PowerPoint features are just a ghost of the rich applications I have on the laptop. Also the UI is clumsy with commands to be accessed in weird way.
Also the user experience is far from productive, with the right button click doing the function of the left button, no point and drag, no changing apps position in folders.
Dropbox app, files app etc are just a stretched version of the mobile one with a lot of empty space.
The only well functioning is web browsing, so I suppose relying on Google Docs will be fine.
Want to ask if does someone else have this problems, maybe need I to do some setup.
My desktop test
Today I tested the desktop mode.
I was quite amazed about what I saw.
A few things I did not like:
-citrix receiver did not work well
-rdp connections did not go well
-no VoIP apps possible because the user that is activated has no rights to the phone options.
I am looking for the possibility to change some settings for the desktop mode. I can't find the application "desktop mode" to elavate the rights.
Also the edges for the chrome browser are not as good as we would like to see. I will subscribe to the fora for the Huawei desktop mode to see if I can learn. Something there.
If anyone has tips for me please advise me.

i have problems with VLC, it works fine but playback controls dont appear on screen.
Perfect with stock video player but no audio in some videos
I use MX player, working 100% great
The three are full screen support, to do it go to the icon on the task bar and left button, then enable it.
Just wondering with the P20 series released, updated EMUI 8.1 have there been any improvements in desktop mode compared to the mate 10?
anyone know how to have desktop mode auto-launch when cable is plugged in, rather than having to choose desktop mode from status bar?
