New (Maybe) Motorola Phone on Sprint!? - Motorola Photon 4G

Move this if posted on the wrong place.
Hello everyone! Well I have something interesting for you all! I went to the movie theater and before the movie started, this commercial played:
Here is a link to the page before you get to see the video (it requires Facebook log in):

Or here is the video on Youtube for those who does not want to log in or have Facebook:

To me it looks like a Motorola Droid setting. What do you guys think this could turn out to be? New Photon 4G LTE or other phone? Let me know what you think!

Hmm... intriguing...

Just watched it...made no sense....even for a phone trailer (if that's what it is) it's the most vague trailer I've ever seen...

I know it is very vague but very interesting.

We just have to wait for more information about the mysterious phone

Ok I actually found this on youtube and it looks like it is just a commercial. :'(
Here is the link to the production of the video:

So, I guess that we would not have any new phone confirmations yet.

Netflix,Photon, HDMI

Does Netflix work on Photon using the HDMI to connect to TV?
It should because all the HDMI is doing is taking whatever is on your Photon screen and projecting it to your TV. We already know that Netflix is supported on the Photon so this shouldn't be a problem.
Yep, watched some MST3K and some ST:TNG already

just make sure you have the correct (good) cable. First one I had did not work well, the second one worked great.
TS out
i tried this yesterday and while i thought the capability was cool it does look kinda grainy on bigger TV's because its just blowing up the phone screen image. A way to improve resolution or a custom app from netflix would be really clutch, but I dont want to ask for too much. +1 for hulu working in webtop mode

New Hulu and CM7 Beta

Just an FYI, the new Hulu app mentioned on the XDA front page works beautifully with CM7.

Thats weird seeing as they have the "Motorola X2" Listed under compatible devices. I havent been a big Hulu watcher but maybe I'll give this a try.
market version works great for me, but I have hulu plus
wish HDMI-out worked though
installed and went to watch from free gallery and just buffered forever and said network error.
more specific it said it appears u have network issues try again later.

you on wifi?
when I'm on 3G mine will sometimes get stuck like that, especially if I try to fiddle with the video quality. After I've touched that setting even if its set at low it gives me grief.
What does Hulu do? Thanks!

JS, I have to admit I made this post prematurely. I didn't realize this hulu.apk did NOT include the hex fix which allows full free viewing via the web browser.
For some reason, I was under the impression that this application provided that fix as well as providing the Hulu client.

Huli is an online TV show/movie streaming website. They have a lot of shows and movies. But they are going down hill. Too much stuff on their site is going to hulu plus. Regular Hulu is free but has ever growing commercials, hulu plus you pay for. Its basically YouTube for TV and movies but with more commercials and you pay for a lot of stuff :/
It was a great service in the beginning, but they were loosing money and needed some way to stay afloat

This was there plan all along. You build the fanbase then slowly make features a premium service. Some shows have only 3 free episodes. They may only post just that weeks show in the future.

I thought it was that they kept paying the companies to stream their shows. I used megavideo after they put 8 or 10 commercials in each show and started doing hulu plus. But now I can't use megavideo either :/

Amaze camera demo

When ever I try to do the camera demo on my phone it say no video found.
Why oh why did HTC make the option to watch the demo but not make a video?
By the way, the way you find the demo option. Is:
Go to camera, then hit menu. Scroll down to the bottom and hit tutorial, then click demo on bottom right side of screen.

I watched this video from my camera the first day I got the phone in November, 2011. I tried today and it is gone. Strange!
do you guys think that on the ICS update they are gonna get away with the amazing camera we have? just wondering man, when i got the g2x, and then it was updated to gingerbread they took off the nice camera 1080p recording to vanilla gingerbread camera 720p recording,
idk this just got me confuse, oh and by the way if you search on youtube tmobile that video will come up, idk now i havent tried
Checked it out 2 months ago or whenever I opened the box, it wasn't available.
It felt 'creepy' because it didn't seem right that a link from HTC placed on a $600.00 phone to YouTube was gone.
Things like that don't just happen.
The more I think about it, the Amaze is the twilight zone of phones right now, I really love the twilight zone.
"Twilight Zone" theme song is now in your head.
you're welcome.

Your in the right forum. Yes ,this has been available for a while now. Its a great thing to have ! Also, if you have a Xbox One and click on "media output" in settings you can cast right to it as well.
