    I have a LG Remarq phone. Someone sent me a Y.T. link, but I couldn't view it. It said that I need a handler to view the video. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi

    From what I can see of the specs of that phone, sadly it does not come with Adobe Flash capability, so as You Tube videos are shown in Flash format, you are out of luck.

    Thanks for your reply. You are not the only person that told me that so far.

    Most LG's, like yours, the rumour, the rumour 2, etc all will not play streaming video.

    my old Rumour 2 used polaris operating software, and there was a big commotion about how LG advertised the phones. LG advertised that the phones were indeed streaming-video capapble, but when it came down to it, they were not.


    Everyone I know got the same message about lacking a certain handler.

    I'm sure someone here knows alot more about this than me, I'm just a noobie.. but this will give you an idea. Stay away from LG.. avoid it like the plague :)

    Everything I've just been reading about your remarq says the same things as I saw for the LG rumour2, it will not do video messaging, or play streaming video.

    here are the specs for your phone http://www.phonearena.com/phones/LG-Remarq_id4294/fullspecs


    EDIT: according to the link I just gave you MP3 is the only media format accepted by your phone ;)

    Multimedia
    Music Player: Music Player - Audio support such as MP3

    Yes
    Supports:MP3
