Not sure if ALL of this goes here, but I'm sure at least one of them does. lol

I was wondering, first off, if there were a way to set YouTube on Sprints HTC Hero to always play videos in high quality. I really like how smooth it plays them on high, but I hate that I have to set it every time I go to watch another video.

I was also wondering if there were any apps that would allow me to turn off the trackball light. I use my phone sometimes after I turn my lights off for the night, but when that little trackball light comes on whenever I have to hit one of the hard buttons, it's like someone's hitting the back of my brain pan with a bright flashlight. I wouldn't mind being able to have an option to just turn that little bugger off altogether.

Also... Is there any way to either turn off or hide the call history? I hit the Phone button, and anyone that is in my history isn't in my contacts until I delete the history.

If this isn't the right place to be asking any of these questions, please do tell me where I should be asking them. I'm just not sure who's app YouTube is, but I believe it belongs to the Android platform.

As for the trackball light, I'm almost sure it's a hardware setting thing, and belongs with HTC, but as I'm a little new to this, I'm not totally sure who to tell about what.

Thanks in advance for any help I can get. ^^

Any info on the trackball light thing would be extremely helpful, especially since it stays on ALL the time since the 2.1 update.

i think you'd either have to put it in airplane mode, or disable notifications in each app.

Can't help you on some of those never having a hero, but at XDA there is a link in the N1 section for the Evo YouTube app, has a button that let's you choose hq by default. Works great on the N1, not sure about the hero.
