Why the hell I would install gapps ?

This is eOS here man.

Yes T-813

[ronnz98]

If you need camera, then install latest R version for SM-T813

Thanks a lot for your work!

[maik1]

Have somebody tested the new 2.9 version for gts210velte ? Is the 90 degree rotation problem still existing ?

[warwick]

Yes, I have the same issue.

[xjohanx]

Singe v2.9 of this unofficial build my Samsung Tablet T-813 has problems playing YouTube Videos. So i wanted to go back to v2.7 but after flashing i could not log in anymore. After typing my PIN it goes back to the start screen.

Any idea for a solution?

[buzzzz]

You cannot go back after update data without a nandroid backup or wipe data partition.

[buzzzz]

Is there anybody else having video problems with 2.9 and gts210vewifi or is an update available?
I have also a problem with YT. Videos are not playing at all browsers.

YT. Videos are not playing at all browsers

Have you tried using “NewPipe” or “PipePipe” ?

Tracker free !

[buzzzz]

No, but I`ll try. Usually browser play no adds. The best would be to have it working browsers.

Have you tried using “NewPipe” or “PipePipe” ?

Probably a good idea in general. Last night I went watch a YouTube video and it forced me to log in. Never saw that before and I’m pretty miffed about it. This is on a PC with Firefox so my options are limited. I think I found one open source Windows app that acts as a front end for YouTube, but I don’t want to install software on my laptop.

So now I’m going to have to create a dummy account just to watch YouTube videos. They said a login is required for spam protection, but that’s BS. I know they’re doing that just to collect more data on people. Man Google sucks.

[Didou]

Did you tried Invidous as a front end in browser ?

But this is getting too much out off topic …

[piero]

@CraigHB

found one open source Windows app

There are “FreeTube” builds for Windows

[xjohanx]

Is there already a v3.0 of this unofficial build for the Samsung S2 gts210vewifi available?

[buzzzz]

Only @ronnz98 can answer.

[ronnz98]

No, and there wont be in the near future
