Just wondering if anyone else gets a jerking motion while watching video from htc watch. I get a steady jerking about ever 1.5 seconds. It is not download speed as the movies in question have fully downloaded. This is quite annoying when using phone to watch movies on my tv.

Depends on what kind of movie I'm watching. =P
Jerking every 1.5 seconds sounds pretty serious.
You might want to limit the steady jerking...might mess up your wrist.
(Sorry I couldn't help it.) LOL!
Well, I left it wide open.
I don't see the jerking/pausing on recorded video. I'm gonna transfer a video from my computer and try to diagnose.

probably out of batteries take a to a watch maker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
It could be the be your connection or just a fluke. I know that sometimes I get jerks on bad connections because of buffering when it comes to video and stuff like that. If its not the connection it could just be the phone isn't keeping up with the buffering if its a downloaded movie. like how it happens on comps time to time.

Big Pimpin' has played on every Android device that I've ever owned. It usually begins first time I sync my Gmail, and curiously stops only when I trade one in, or simply transfer the ownership of one.
Is this not normal?

I have a similar problem with my music player. Although the files are on my SD. I put Howard Stern on my phone (gets me through work) and sometimes it will randomly start skipping to other shows I've downloaded. These are 3-4 hour shows and just after a few minutes it skips to the next show, then the next, so on and so forth.
I've never had random rap music just pop up out of nowhere on my phone.

download "headset blocker" from the market and it will not skip anymore (but be aware you will need to turn this off if you need to use your headset to have a conversation/phone call).
Hey I am using my WiFi and get around 20 mbps down and 10 up. Why when watching HD videos on YouTube it has to stop and start buffering around ever 45 seconds? I watched a 4 minute video and it had to stop ad start around 5 times. Quiet annoying I'd say. 20 down and 10 up isn't good enough to watch a 4 minute long HD video on a cell phone? Anyone else experienced this?

I had buffering issues when playing Youtube through the browser.... are you guys using the browser or the YouTube app? Try the app instead if you are using the browser HQ video and post back if it helps, thanks.
HD works fine by default. Try checking for updates such as PRL etc. Obviously make sure your on wifi... I know you said you are but for those with this problem and haven't posted yet, it's the simplest things that we forget!

Easy you install the YouTube HD apk on your E4GT gsii and you'll have HD/HQ. Also the sgsiii is 720, wrong model. Even though the gsii is not 720 the HD difference is noticeable. Back on topic I think that's just YouTube, it does it on every phone I've used HD on.

I've noticed the same thing,I primarily use the YouTube app but with exception to those videos that have to play from browser I get the same issue with buffering, no matter if its 3G or wifi. definitely a big difference when compared to Netflix app streaming ability.I can pause rewind fast forward play pretty seamlessly.

The official youtube app has to stop and buffer every 20-30 sec for me even on wifi.If I watch the same video on full screen through youtube.com on the stock browser there isn't any buffering at all.Maybe their next update will fix it.
Is this just a problem with YouTube? I can hardly go through any videos without it having to buffer every 30 seconds( Atty which point i have to put the tablet down so i don't smash it)... Its very annoying.
Yes, same here. It takes forever to open a video

youtube has always performed poorly for me, in two different physical locations with various different hardware and two different ISPs. my guess is that it's my location and there's just not a good connection to youtube. i generally have to either download the clips or pause it and let it preload for a while.
May be a router issue? YouTube constantly buffers for me when on 2.4ghz. The only part of our house that has 5ghz is around my room area, and when I got there and connected to 5ghz, the YouTube app never buffered at all (except for the start of course) anymore.
Same here on my laptop as well as my tablet....
I have been using the rolle tube apk, which is the old YouTube and it works good for me on 3g speeds, tethering with my s3.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda premium
I have the same issue too. seems like the app refuses to stream faster than 2 to 3 mbps. I have a 150mbps down connection (get around 30 on wifi) and it always buffers when Im watching vids in HD.
Tablet app has no options for buffering or even the "pre-load watch later" option that my phone does...?
Have buffering problems, BUT also I get hangs when ever I change orientation and/or click on the sharing button.
As a big YouTube watcher I am so tired of this crap. I mean jeez I'm on pretty fast LTE and all I get is constant buffering. I can't watch an HD view for more then 30 seconds without it buffering for 5-10 seconds. And if I turn the HD off the picture looks so horrible I can barely make out what I'm watching. Anything that can be done to improve this?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I was beginning to thunk that it was my internet. Even when I use TubeMate to download the videos before I watch them (which I usually do), I've noticed that the downloads run a LOT slower. I'm talking from 5MBps to 200KBps.

Yea I think the YouTube app is having problems. Or YouTube itself is having issues.
I was on a fast wifi connection and could not even get normal non hd videos to play without ridiculous amounts of waiting and buffering. Forget hd, those just kept buffering and buffering on WiFi.
Probably youtubes servers

As of today Youtube isn't running so hott on my desktop either just keeps skipping using chrome. I don't know if it has to do with my uverse or youtube servers. The funny thing is I just used the app on my phone and it played fine finally lol.
I think youtube was having problems a few days ago, I know I read something about server issues around that time.

Youtube (Google) buffers the streaming a lot in the past few years and getting worse. They are known to be prioritizing traffic lately which will result in buffering on YouTube Android, Windows, Linux, Ipod, Ipad etc etc etc.. Nothing to do with your connection, at least what you are referring to and nothing Sprint can do to help unfortunately.
On the YouTube video u have 1 bar of wifi and on the speedtest ur on 4g (lucky btw). Armrest ur YouTube works mines been busted it just stops buffering completely at 50 secs but during those 50 sec it doesn't buffer.
Edit just tried YouTube and it seems like the problem fixed its self it doesn't stop at 50 and I don't get any buffering at all
