[Q] Phone apps/games keeps pausing

Hey guys, Idk why but recently my phone is going crazy
I first noticed this a few months ago, I was playing Injustice and it kept pausing. At that time my internal memory was 75% full, so I thought that might be the problem so later I uninstalled the app
But recently all my other games and video streaming apps(Twitch ,YouTube etc) keeps pausing, my Album app is bugged (though the Movies app works fine), camera force closes. Even my keyboard acts buggy sometimes. I tried formatting my phone memory, still no effect.
I think it could be a virus but I tried Clean Master (I guess this isn't a good choice) and it shows nothing is wrong
So do you think it's a virus? If it is, what should I do and if not, any particular solutions?
Thanks in advance guys and I hope I posted this thread in the proper section

If you're rooted, try clearing the cache and dalvik cache. Or maybe reinstall the ROM, that's what I usually do when my phone starts acting up. It's annoying, but worth it. What ROM are you on BTW?

Well Actually I'm using the stock 4.3 ROM and I haven't even rooted my phone
I tried rooting it, but couldn't unlock the bootloader

You don't need to unlock the bootloader to root Try TowelRoot. My advice is to do a fresh install with Flashtool, with a non-carrier specific ROM (no bloatware). When I was on eXistenZ Ultra, my phone slowed down after a few days. I think this happened on the stock ROM too, it might be a bug.

I tried TowelRoot, it shows that my phone is rooted but when I use other apps to check my root status like Root Checker or Titanium Backup it shows "The phone isn't rooted"
Damn, I suck at this

Did you flash a superuser app after rooting?
You can check root with the app 'root check' (appstore)

Maybe TowelRoot doesn't work properly on .207 (if you're on that firmware). Have you followed the instructions in this thread? You might have missed something - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783885

[Solved] Anyone else experiencing crash of The Guardian android app?

Hi,

The error message shown is "Unfortunately, Guardian has stopped, " I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this issue and if there is anyway to prevent it.
Anyone having a GT-i9305 and is on stock kk 4.4.4. Please download it and give me the feedback. Here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guardian&hl=en .
I'm on Stock 4.4.4 kit Kat, GT-I9305, rooted.
Thanks

Only a year ago this forum was crawling with people, guess it's time to move on .

Hi
I got this app working once and once only for about 10 minutes, played around with it and exited the app. I now can't get it to work again no matter what I do.
I can confirm I am having this issue too on Jelly Bean 4.3, Samsung Galaxy S3 (I9300)! New phone, not rooted and no crap installed on it, It's driving me insane as I'm not a technophobe. I've tried clearing the cache, clearing data, uninstalling and reinstalling more than once, battery pulls, disabling Google+, wiping cache partition in recovery mode, moving app to SD card... ARGHH!

Try to update it, it should work now, they fixed it. I have an occasional notification "this app is not authorised for billing etc" besides of that it works fine.

Installing Xposed seems to have screwed up some things

So I recently upgraded to Lollipop and (re)rooted it. I used TWRP to install Xposed, but now it seems I have some issues:
- The phone takes a while to boot, "upgrading" 150+ apps every time I turn on the phone.
- I get a low storage space warning even though I've only used about 1.5GB of my space.
- I can't download anything from the Play Store; I guess because Android thinks I don't have enough space (although I don't get the low space error when attempting to download an app).
Any solutions? Thanks in advance!

Clear your cache and dalvik. I think that was the fix

YouTube, Video Recording and Video Playback Issues After UBL

Hello xda!
I'm a new member and I thought you guys could know about the issues I have on my Z3 Compact.
After using my phone a little while, I decided to root it so I unlocked it's BL. Then I tried rooting but couldn't. Well I could root it but I didn't want Kit Kat so I used it without root but with UBL for a while. Then I decided to root it. I rooted it successfuly and now I am using Wajk's 5.1.1 Stock Slim Rom. Ever since unlocking my bootloader I'm having issues. I turn on my phone, use it for sometime, then I can't watch videos from YouTube app. It says "There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry.". When YouTube stops working, I noticed that I also can't record videos with the camera and I can not play videos from the storage of my phone (any video). It says "Can't playback video". Only fix I found for this is I hold the Power Button + Vol. Up button to wipe dalvik cache. After that problem goes away. But still, after a while, it does the same thing. Any ideas what it might be?
Appreciate every effort from now...

Up Up!
Any answers?!

Try to find the dev and ask if there is an update if not find a new rom

Not entirely sure why you would unlock your bootloader to root your phone. Have you tried re-locking it with the backup you made of the TA partition? That might fix your problem.
Another solution suggested is to go to settings\apps > Youtube > Force stop & Wipe data. Then restart your phone into recovery and wipe cache.
Have you tried re-installing flash? There is a youtube video that claims to fix it.
Have you tried enabling Use AwsomePlayer in the developer options.?
The video not working on your camera is broken bootloader symptoms. There is supposed to be a flashable fix but I don't know if it works or not.

First of all thank you for your reply. I've tried everything that you stated and it seems to be a lollipop issue. I wanted to try custom ROMs and such that was the reason for me to unlock my bootloader, also I didn't know you could get root without unlocking BL, so I had done it without a backup or anything . But since I started using 6.0.1 the problem disappeared. Thank you for your kind efforts.

Any permanent way to fix YouTube crash issue on stock 5.1?

YouTube keeps crashing ... Sometimes retry makes the video playback going again, other times I have to wait a bit before I can use YT again. short of installing custom roms, anything I can do to fix this annoying issue?
Stock 5.1 with root and TWRP currently.

Delete the youtube.apk/dir in /system/app
Clear ART cache and then install normally the latest yt client from the playstore.
This worked for me, but no guarantee whatsoever.
