[Q] YouTube Glitch Since Lollipop 5.1 Update - Moto X Q&A

Hi so i asked over at the Motorola owners forums but nobody over there could resolve my issue. This is what's going on: So when I go to watch videos on the YouTube app on WiFi or Mobile data the video will start to play and then like 10 seconds in the video will stop and it will say "problem loading video tap to retry" so I tap to retry sometimes it works but most of the time it just keeps loading and never does anything. Once that happens all other streaming media apps don't work like Spotify won't play music as well as local mp3's that I have on my device. After a reboot then I'm able to play every thing again until it happens again. I've done a cache wipe and a factory reset without automatic backup/restore on as well as turning awesome player off in the developers options. And that has not changed anything. Any ideas on what to do? Also i'm not rooted i'm on stock firmware.

This is related to the sound module/driver and no known fix is available afaik.Probably Motorola will issue a patch for this along with several other issues.

Good to know, that probably means that the sound cracking issue is gone too.

Cm 10.1.2 sound problem

Does anybody as this problem: my lg 4x hd is with rooted with cm 10.1.2 rom.everything is fine except when i listen to music...when a song is playing i hear these pops and click and sometimes it freezes for a fraction of second..
Is there a fix for this?i didnt want to download another music app.
Ps:the music app is cm 10.1 stock-apollo

Install a different music app and see if the problem goes away. That way you'll know if it is the ROM/your music or the app.
Troubleshoot it yourself by elimination.
Oh yes ... this has NOTHING to do with DEVELOPMENT - belongs on the Q&A forum so please report it to a moderator to be moved as I'm mobile and can't.

My phone has developed a similar problem over the last couple of days. Flashed Cm 10.1.2 on Friday (from stock) and everything worked great. Music played with no problem. Yesterday started to have a problem where music playback started to stutter and eventually stop, but only when the screen is off. Tried Poweramp and Google Music, same problem.
I think there is some issue with the system when the screen is off , as notification sounds are also disrupted, and the lock screen is very laggy when trying to wake the phone up. When the screen is on there is no problem with general operation, music playback is fine, as is video, streaming,etc. This problem has resulted in the phone freezing entirely a couple of times and I've had to remove the battery to reset.
Anyone else had this problem? Anyone found a solution?
I updated to 10.1.3 to see if this would make any difference, but no change. I am going to reflash to see if that cures it and will post back if it does.

I had the same issue, until i stumbled over this easy solution. If you are using poweramp or any other music player where you can change the audio buffer, just increase the buffer and the problem should be fixed....

The truth is that la(te)st update for this phone is full of bugs. It ended up just like Razr. Good thing I installed 5.1 dump, just reverted back to stock 4.4.4.

yes its really bad. funny thing is i was one of the test drivers for the update for them, and they wouldn't listen to any of us when we told them not to mass release it but they didnt care and did it anyway. their feedback was horrible too they left us hanging for weeks with no updates. no communication at all.

I have this problem as well. Seems to work on my N7 with 5.1, so it must be moto specific. it is super annoying.

Third N910T replacement; something stealing app focus

I'm about to receive my third warranty replacement for the numerous problems I had with my Note4. Most of the problems are fixable (camera, GPS, etc), but one problem is bad and I don't see a simple solution.
Something seems to be intermittently stealing the focus from my app (I believe). So, if I'm watching YouTube, it randomly pauses because it thinks I've switched apps. If I'm recording video, it randomly stops, because it thinks I've switched apps. If I'm playing a video game, it pauses while I'm playing until 'I return'. If I go to the app-switcher, sometimes it closes randomly before I select which running app to switch to.
I actually bought a new SD card (64GB wasn't really doing it for me, anymore, anyways) but the problem persists. The phone does seem better behaved before all my apps repopulate (although there's not much to do on the phone before the apps are back), so I suspect it's an app, but I haven't heard anything about this sort of problem on any website or forum.
Lastly, the problem may have started around the time of the StageFright patch in August, but a lot of apps also updated around that time.
I'm stock 5.0.1 without root (maybe in the future), although I always disable T-Mobile bloatware like DT_Ignite. Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just a shot in the dark: go to Settings, Display, and make sure Smart Stay is unchecked.

Thanks - And sorry for the late reply (I don't remember getting a notification about a reply). I'll try your suggestion if the problem comes back.
It appears to be a problem with the Samsung Techwin app for their video cameras. For others, the app would just randomly pop-up during phone use, making the problem easier to diagnose. For me, it would just steal focus.
I uninstalled the app & things are back to normal.

youtube app crashes my Note 8

I noticed a bug in the YouTube app on my device (note 8 SM-N950F).
while a video is playing if I minimized the movie and then maximized it (quickly few times in a row) the phone crash to boot.
I didn't face any kind of crash in the month I have it except this scenario in the youtube app .
the app version 12.44.53
as you can see :
https://youtu.be/OPA2KdPunsA
anyone else can try and report ?
thanks
I have had the same thing. It would just randomly crash out and reboot my phone when minimising/maximising videos from the little preview window when scrolling.

I manage to find more info by trying diffrent things. I think maybe it's memory management bug. If the device is fresh from boot with nothing else running then it won't crash. But with some apps open in the background then it always happens. not randomly at all.
Did you solved it?
Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk
It happens so rarely that I haven't really done anything about it. It will happen out of the blue one day and won't show up for weeks. I have gone on the Samsung Members app and it detected an unexpected reboot which it reported to Samsung so maybe they will fix it eventually.
Same thing for me. Happened already 3 times. While resizing the window or passing from portrait to landscape.

I have same problem like you. Whenever there is an apps running in the background, it will crash. I happen rarely for me but this week, youtube and instagram crash 4 times already each. Yea most likely its Ram management.
any update on how to fix it? Thanks

I've checked now and it won't crash. I don't know if it's related but Yesterday I've installed the latest OTA update (which was the first since I've got my unit). Any way it's seems fixed as far as i can see. Didn't do anything except updating all my apps and the unit itself to the latest version available. If it will happen again I'll keep you update.

Smart view choppy

Since the oreo update I have problems with smart view when I cast my screen to my smart TV. When the phone screen is on there's no problem but when screen is off the signal becomes unstable losing sound and getting a choppy image. Also now i can't use the phone when casting the screen, on nougat the phone was able to split the screen in order to cast and use another app at the same time. Now on oreo I have this problems, any idea?
Thanks in advance.

I was thinking on a factory reset too... impossible to set smart view on priority or something like that, really don't know how to do. Tried with several browsers and looks that just go fine with video stock and Google movies, did you try with those app?

No I didn't I will on the weekend tho... I have howver tried several appslike netflix, default video app with recorded videos, SMPC and I even installed the periscope app to give live streaming a go (soccer games, yeah!) all of them got choppy after the screen goes dark and maybe 2 -3 mins after the screen sharing starts.
perhaps we'll have to wait on update for those apps instead of blamming it on the update alone?
Me too.. after update to oreo .. huft

So it seems that is a oreo problem... I have to say that the problem is less frequent and there is some occasions when idon't have any problem. Really don't do anything specific, just clean cache on stock recovery.

We have to send a report with Samsung members to MAYBE, and just MAYBE, they could say: ah ja, there is a problem annoying our beloved users; lets fix it right now! :silly:
