Difficulty:

If you’re one of the many Android users running Eclair, you might want to know that the latest version of YouTube from Gingerbread has been ported to Eclair!

XDA forum member rolle3k has come up with the goods again, with this port. The XDA member has hacked the newest YouTube app to work with Android OS 2.0/2.1.

rolle3k had to remove two calls and add android.util.base64 which was introduced with Froyo, but the hack should work flawlessly.

To install successfully, you must remove the default YouTube app before installing this hacked app.

For more information and to download the app, head on over to the modification thread.
