N95 new firmware

#1 (**permalink**) March 28th, 2008, 08:44 PM

Prior to installing firmware Version 21.0.0.016, I backed up my settings
to the memory card. After installing the new firmware, I restored my phone
from the memory card so all my settings would be restored. So, I dont know
what is different about the new firmware, BUT, I know it was supposed to
have support for Youtube but I can't get it to work. All attempts to view
youtube videos online, automatically open Real Player, which of course
do not play the Youtube videos. Any ideas????

I found Youtube works on my N95 with v13 F/W. It didn't used to work,
but does now for some reason, and yes, it opens them in Realplayer.

How bizarre.... ok, thankyou for that. The change log for this firmware
suggests support for youtube but realplayer cannot seem to open them.
It is my understanding that youtube files should now be associated with
the newly installed "Flashlite 3" by adobe, but by some glitch, they are
still associated with real player.

I don't know if you guys are aware of a youtube client for s60 phones called emtube which will allow you to search and watch videos on N95 regardless of the firmware you have(so I think). It's very cool and I use it often. Google emtube and you will find lots of links to download for free.

Don't restore from backup after a flash.
It's now a different device and settings is your problem.
