1.1.3/1.1.4 YouTube over GPRS
Anyone on a network other than Telstra probably knows you can't view YT videos on your iphone over GPRS anymore on 1.1.3 or 1.1.4
Well, you now can.
On a search for the answer i found a fix.
Download this: Patched Youtube.app
Extract it to your desktop and open up a terminal
ssh into your iphone
Code:
ssh root@ipforyouriphonehere
Password: alpine
cd /Applications
mv YouTube.app YouTube.backup
exit
scp -r ~/Desktop/YouTube.app root@ipaddressofiphone:/Applications/
Password: alpine
ssh root@ipaddressofiphone
Password: alpine
cd /Applications/
cp YouTube.backup/icon.png YouTube.app/icon.png
chmod -R 755 YouTube.app
exit
Voila

From 56 up to 114Kbps
Still, over edge the iphone loads a more compressed version of the video that is many times smaller in filesize.

Everything is fine up till these steps:
cp YouTube.backup/icon.png YouTube.app/icon.png
chmod -R 755 YouTube.app
exit
It cannot find YouTube.app.
Now YouTube doesn't work. (So i restored the .backup) Can you fix the steps?

I just followed the guide myself and it worked
when you did scp did it list the files sending?
Here is exactly what I did - Ignore the line that says rm -rf as I already have a backup and don't need to make another.
Code:
Mattbook:~ matt$ ssh root@192.168.1.5
# cd /Applications
# rm -rf YouTube.app
# exit
scp -r ~/Desktop/YouTube.app root@192.168.1.5:/Applications
Mattbook:~ matt$ ssh root@192.168.1.5
# cd /Applications
# cp YouTube.backup/icon.png YouTube.app/icon.png
# chmod -R 755 YouTube.app
# exit

Alright just tried it again and it worked, must have missed a skip or something!, thanks for this - honestly this should have always been part of the app.. even if it takes ages, at least it still loads. (And honestly it's not THAT slow..)
Thanks!

I had a try on virgin gprs, it was very very slow but it does work.
I can only manage about 5KB max on the iphone.

If you don't know what it is, you really shouldn't be messing with it.

I only got my iPhone yesterday so I'm still learning about it.
If someone could answer my question that would be great!
