Root [UNOFFICIAL][CAF][4.4.4] Cyanogenmod 11 Stable Build 2 (tom1957's camcorder/hq youtube/green tint)

I will get right on that!

Edit: Nope. Still only in 360p, but you can download the videos with OG YouTube in any resolution and it plays just fine. It might not be as convenient, but its there.

Yet another edit: I apologize as I'm not used to this app, but it is possible to play in 480p. It's not just a gimmick as it looks much better than 360p and it takes longer to load lol. Thank you to DeltaXzombies!
No problem. :) But the only thing thats keeping me from this rom is Xposed not working and without Xposed i cant sign into the modded YouTube

I wonder if all videos will be 480p+ if you use the OGMods modded YouTube app that allows videos to be played in max quality (1440p)

Can we trust this app not to steal my Google login if I enable the xposed login tweak?

Its 100% safe. I've used it for months and i have had no problems at all

I was reading some of the XDA posts, seems legit. I installed it and I noticed I now also have the option to view videos in 'Google Cardboard' mode which is something I could not do before on the LG Volt. That's nice because I snagged one of those free Star Wars themed Google Cardboard kits and the only phone I could use it with for 3D videos was my mom's iPhone 4s. Which was horrible because I could see the edges of the iPhone through the viewer lens.

Also another thing. When i switch from 240 to 220 dpi, there alot of theme issues (random reboots, some themes not applying, clock force closing) so its a bad idea to change dpis?

How were you changing the dpi? I used texdroider from the market to change dpi from 240 to 220, and even the lg g3 xxhdpi theme i applied had no problem. I didnt run into clock fc's either.

Oh one more thing... I posted this back when I listed what I tested on your latest rom but I don't know if you read it. I was trying to swap the internal storage and the external storage locations. I got the micro sd card to register as the internal storage (mounted at /data) but I cannot get the former internal storage (/dev/block/mmcblk0p34) mounted as external storage so I can still use it and see it via MTP. Any ideas @whoshotjr2006?

no clue bud. i tried different things, messing with fstab.x5, trying to make vold.fstab work with 4.4.4, and even recompiling framework-res.apk from scratch with a modified storage-list.xml, and cant get anything to stick. if you have any ideas that take compiling from scratch to accomplish, lemme know and ill roll you a custom build.

Apparently only some videos are HQ without the mod.

If I knew how I might have just compiled it myself... but I haven't a clue. :thinking:
