[Q] Galaxy Tab Youtube lag - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I first bought the Galaxy tab 10.1, I believe it was on honeycomb. I usually use it for youtube and games. Once I updated it to ice cream sandwich, whenever i watched youtube videos it always lags and never runs smoothly like it used to. I tried fixing it by factory resetting it but it would still constantly lag. Would downgrading back to honeycomb ?

I'm using the Fourth Revolution ICS ROM with Yoda 2.4 kernel clocked at 1.2Ghz. I'm not experiencing any lag in Youtube from either the browser (Dolphin) or from the Youtube app (4.2.16).

Try watching this video from youtube on your galaxy tab 10.1:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSb5ZSnn2qs
Videos like this (concerts) lag horribly especially.
I'm also on Fourth Bar Revolution ICS, and I tried both Yoda's and A1 Kernel and still have this lag.
Please let us know if the video above lags on yours too..
Thanks!

By the way, rooting and installing custom roms don't help at all. I've tried multiple custom roms including cm9, cm10, aokp, and others and they all have youtube lag. This is the ONLY problem I have with gtab 10.1 and hope there is a way to fix this somehow.....

Ok, I have tried this video and there is no lag on my device. Played in the App and in the Dolphin browser in both SD and HD, though in HD the video paused a few times due to it buffering as my internet connection is only 1.8mb/s
I wiped my device completely (wiped data/cache/dalvik) using CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 to install my roms. I was previously on Tasks650 ICS Rom. Used Titanium backup only to restore apps and app data, not system data. Also using SetCPU to processor to 200/1200Mhz with the governor set to interactive. All settings are default in the Yoda 2.4 Kernel/Fourth Bar Revolution rom except for having Force GPU rendering enabled.

I've pretty much gotten rid of lag on my tab.
Im on a jb cm based rom
I have it overclocked to 1.6(a1 kernel) and have a governer that will get to that speed fast
Have force 2d gpu rendering unchecked
And now it will only lag if I bring up the notification bar or tap on the video.

Are you sure? Could you guys try that video above on your tablet AND your computer to compare if there DEFINITELY is no lag? No offence, but some people don't notice stutters and lags as much as some other people because not everyone is the same. iPad users are keen to smoothness of course so if there is a SLIGHT lag, they notice, but some people (not all) who have been using Android only for years don't notice as much. I don't know about you guys, so if you do think you are very keen on smoothness, please do tell me and I will try your setups for my galaxy tab (as I just finished restoring everything on mine and set up perfect so that I don't want to do it all over again, and also sometimes the CWM backup doesn't work properly for me).
Also, I thought overclocking to 1.6ghz would drain the battery really fast, no? I've never overclocked my tablet above 1.4ghz.
Thanks.

And my tab lasts 2 days with 4-6 hours on screen time.

I didn't have the same experience. HD stutters regardless of clock settings. And it's not the connection; I've seen it do this on a 30mbps down connection.

Same for me I believe. I've tried every single configuration I could (almost every single ICS and JB rome w/ A1 or Yoda's kernel w/ over clock w/ changing developer setting) but I ALWAYS have the lag if I use the test video I mentioned above..

One thing that's very odd is that MOVIE TRAILERS on Youtube app do not stutter or lag AT ALL. They are PERFECTLY smooth in HD. Also when you access the movie trailers from Google Play store's movie section, they are all SMOOTH as well. But other videos still have lag (how much lag depends on videos) if I go back to those..
Maybe someone can figure out a cause of this problem from above?

many thanks for your response, experience and test.
I am happy because I am not alone, with same problem to youtube HD stutter and lagly.
But after your all reply for now isn't possible to find a good and reliable solution.
You thinks is a bug to ICS and youtube ?
Thank you

I tried it again on both Tab 10.1 and 2 laptops (windows7 and Ubuntu), no lag in either app or browser. Did you factory reset and wipe all cache and data before installing the roms and kernels? Tried it with Dolphin browser? You could try it with a fresh rom install without restoreing any data, perhaps? Other than that I don't know what else to suggest.

Thanks for your help.
I have always wipe data, cache, dalvik cache, and battery stat before installing any rom, but do you also do SD card partition or something to wipe your storage as well? I've never wiped my storage since Honeycomb.
I'm not sure if that's going to help or not..and not sure what is the best way to do this..
Thanks.

Hello,
I emailed Samsung few days ago, and they replied, but he completely misunderstood my problem please read the email messages below. Thanks.
I dont know why you understood my problem as Adobe Flash problem.
IT IS NOT.
Im talking about HTML5 videos, in the official YouTube APP, and Netflix App. And also MOBILE YouTube website in the browser.
I dont care about Flash. I dont want it at all.
I want these mobile videos (HTML5) to be working as expected, just like it used to be in Honeycomb.
Please dont say that its a hardware limitation, as my crappy Chinese single core tablet with ICS plays HD YouTube videos without any problem. And please dont say that its the problem with the app, as its not just YouTube app. The lag/stutter also happens in Netflix and TED.
Please send this to the software department and other departments as well, as many people are having this problem. Just read the links I included in my previous message. There are 5 forum threads and counting.
I believe in Samsung.
Thanks,

Dear ****,
Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.
We understand that you have an issue with flash videos on your TAB.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Beginning August 15th we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August. ............................................

Hi,
First of all, I couldn't find VIDEO section while choosing symptoms on this webpage, so I had to choose this one. This problem is actually a VIDEO PLAYBACK ISSUE. Please forward this to the correct department for me.
So since Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android 4.0 update, YouTube HD and Netflix HD videos have been lagging and stuttering really bad, especially music concert videos or game videos like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2YJggBVdeI
Some videos play fine, but most of them lag and stutter a lot and are choppy. I'm talking about HD ones.
Please check out these forum threads so that you will know a LOT of users are having this problem, and it's NOT a matter of factory resetting.

Note that one of the links is for Galaxy Tab 8.9, as it is basically the same except for the screen size.
Please see all the links, and see that many people are having this issue of video playback after ICS upgrade. It's not a hardware limitation. In Honeycomb, they played fine. And not to mention, a Chinese junk ICS tablet I have has a single core processor and it plays same videos perfectly smooth.
PLEASE let other people at Samsung know this problem, and PLEASE, PLEASE release a small update that fixes this problem. I'm NOT asking for a Jelly bean update or any other future Android version updates. I'm asking for a bug fix that's very important.
Please consider it.
Thank you so much,

2 (simples) questions about android?

Hi all,
So I installed this custom rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13086258#post13086258
I really like it and it suits my needs in terms of stability and battery lifetime. Nevertheless I got two small doubts that may or may not have to do with this rom in particular. Here they come:
1 - The ROM does not come with a youtube app, but i managed to instal it from elsewhere since it wasnt availabe on the market. Problem is that most videos don't play, especially VEVO ones... I always get an error saying: Error while loading the movie. This happens via 3G and Wifi connections.
2 - How can I keep the 3G data connection permanently on? When phone goes to standby it will shutdown the connection after a few minutes. In consequence I am not able to keep my IM+ alive and running. How can I resolve this?
Cheers
Answer to question 1-
I'm not too sure to be honest, I never really use YouTube as it canes my data, but it might have something to do with the frames-per-second rate, the hero's a bit poor in fps performance. Maybe someone who knows more can answer
Answer to question -2
Goto settings/accounts and sync/ and enable background data and auto sync, this should help, it did for me anyway.
But be warned, your battery and data might take a beating!
Hope this helps.
Vevo tend to default to HD videos, so that could be the issue.
I've noticed most of the videos that don't play on my Hero when tried on my Galaxy S all tend to be high res ones.
Or you could have a very useful "Justin Beiber" blocker running
Edit- Just tried it on the wifes Galaxy 5 and they show on that as well, I am clearly talking out of my arse lol
the rom that you are using is a 2.1 rom and youtube hq doesnt work on that rom for some reason, so you will have problems with all hq youtube vids

1 I think Vevo ones are not available on YouTube mobile due to the labels not allowing it. Think about it, who would buy music then if they could just stream it from YouTube?
2 Not sure about this one. Sorry. Maybe try go into Wi-fi Settings > Advanced > Set the Wi-Fi policy to never. (I know it's Wi-Fi but it might make a difference.)

[Q] My Galaxy S2 randomly reboots. Possibly cause:Dolphin HD. Anybody else?

My Samsung Galaxy S2 rebooted once or twice a week.
Reboot occured when I opened the dolphin hd browser (after waked up the phone) or when I started an other progrem AFTER the browsing.
I uninstalled dolphin hd and no reboots at all.
Is it possible that Dolphin HD caused the problem???

Think different!
If Dolphin HD has issues on your phone, change your phone or just use another browser.
There are many alternatives, such as Opera, Firefox, etc.
And please report your problems directly to [email protected].
P.S.: Didn't you like the internal browser?

Hi! Thanks for your suggestion. After the first reboot I made a factory reset and reinstalled only the most important programs (dolphin and a few others...), I also cleared the content of the built in sd.

Yes, Dolphin HD caused reboots on mine too (Opera Mobole just once) both on stock and MIUI Rom. Think it's a compatibility problem, maybe with S2 and the dualcore architecture

Well,
3 (with me) - Problems with Dolphin
1 - no problem
It's a strange issue (if it is realy due to Dolphin).
I wrote a letter to dolphin support team also.
Is it possible that an app causing reboot AFTER we closed it?
It probably can if it stays in the background, but not completly sure about this.
My S2 used to reboot a few times a day and then it suddenly stopped .
I ve never had Dolphin HD installed.
I figured this out a few months ago as well I tried numerous troubelshooting methods to narrow the reboots down. Finally after removing dolphin hd some time ago I never get reboots anymore. I'm glad this thread seems to confirm it. I thought I had a bad device for quite some time but am glad it was just software
I had rebooting issues (probably from dropping it once too many times). Solution was to open it up and pop off and reseat every ribbon cable. Turned out my radio cable was loose (from mobo side to bottom antenna unit). Just worked for me...

It is the reason, why I opened this thread.
Let's see.
-4 of us have problem with DolphinHD.
-For 3 of us the rebooting stopped after uninstalling Dolphin HD.
-2 people hava no problem with dolphin HD
(one with custom rom)
I've got a mail from Dolphin Support.
They relased a hotfix.
It is possible that hotfix will solve the problem, but I'm a little bit sceptical.
I'm still testing the phone without D HD. 56H uptime.
Anybody else with reboot problems (and Dolphin installed)???
anybody else?

Im on wanam now and I tried various kernels and radios with the same results. I used to be on Paranoid which is based on CM9 but went back to my Wanam backup.
May I ask which kernel/radio you are on?
Stock LFB rooted, Netflix working perfectly.
This was one of the painful losses I experienced with Paranoid and CM9. I'm tempted to try again with the Siyah kernel. My expectations are low though.
Working fine here. Checkrom and whatever kernel comes with it. So is hulu.
had that problem once, but an easy fix is to go into Applications , find Netflix, then Clear Cache and Clear Data.
You will probably have to re-sign into netflix but it should fix your problem

You are talking about wifi streaming, which should work flawless, or network streaming, frozen video while sound keeps playing, which is old issue, affecting all videos in browser and Netflix (not YouTube app)?
Theres 2 topics on this, without solution sadly.
It does not affect sgs3 north American version.
Workaround that's hit or miss. Clear ram or restart phone before starting netflix. Sucks, i know.

Tried. Didn't help
Even tried b changing audio priority to highest.
Specially happens if I'm browsing something and some picture starts loading.
Doesn't happen in my year old iPod.
And I don't think it used to happen in ICS
I had a similar problem which i think i worked out to happen when a message was coming through or a application was updating, leading me to think it was a low RAM problem so maybe this could be whats happening, if alot of things are open in the background. Either that or processor isnt working fast enough. If your rooted and have a custom kernel try changing the profile to maybe a performance one?
But this didn't happen in ICS... jellybean was supposed to speed up our device not to make it crawl... looks like touchwiz is really :thumbdown: :banghead:

I'd say probably not - I can confirm I've got this issue too, after upgrading to JB. I can't see why so many with the same problem would mean that all our phones are faulty.
Has anyone got a resolution for this?
Mine does it too.. Its just cause of too low ram or something. Never had this problem on S2. This is just samsungs way of saying "upgrade to the S4"
This phone would be brilliant without all these microlags because of low ram..

Same for me since the JB upgrade in Poweramp and Play music. I thought it was something to do with my setup but had the sudden death failure on my phone so started with a clean install when it came back. Problem is still there with my new 32GB mboard and I haven't done any restores of apps.

It seems like some apps when they give ask CPU ( or RAM ) for something, the focus shifts from the music to that.
Like when weater widget asks polls for weather or something.
Funny how my 6 years old SE Walkman w800i was able to play for hours without a micro shutter.
And this almighty phone can't do a simple task,
It's worse when I try to browse and play music.

I agree. I've noticed it mainly when getting notifications through. It seems to me that it's down to bad RAM management. My Desire had less ram but played music fine with ICS.

Reply ****ing frustrated with the phone.
Can't even listen to song on PowerAmp while surfing Facebook in the app or browse lightly on Dolphin .
The songs start to shutter at random places.
And if I press home button, Nova launcher reloads.
I'm on stock LLC with stock kernel.. Rooted.
Any solutions?
I tried many things, new roms, new kernels. All megawipes and stuff, nothing works..
Same problem here . It's so annoying. Given the great number of people with the same problem, I don't think it is a phone problem but a JB one!! Please!!! Help!!! I already tried changing the buffering size and even though it did help a little, I still get some stuttering!
Here's what I think I've worked out so far.
The problem has only arisen since JB and was fine in ICS. A change of handset has the same issue with a clean install of JB.
It seems to happen across different music apps but tunein radio is fine so isn't a specific audio app. Could be that it's linked to a particular file format, e.g. mp3?
When it happens in Poweramp I can see the buffering constant, it never fully loads. Increasing the buffer size and priority doesn't help.
Notifications can make it stutter but it seems that the problem is already there beforehand from the buffering.
Clearing RAM doesn't seem to help, however rebooting the phone will improve it for a while.

I had the same problem.
Deleting the musicplayer widget on the homescreen fixed my problem.
Try deleting it or any other widget you have on your homescreen.
Think I've got a solution in poweramp. After a reboot go to settings/misc/tweaks and select keep service. It hasn't had any skips since I've done that and battery life/performance still seems OK. Early days yet though.

scrolling problem in conversations? low fps.

hi. i don't know if how did i actually have this problem or maybe everybody has the same.
it is with my messaging. when opening a conversation ( received and sent items ) with a lot of messages to scroll up and down, it is not smooth.
when i scroll down or up a conversation, it is just slow and lags very much. it's like the fps dropped.
i have to enable 2d acceleration to make it smooth and better fps.
i experienced this only in conversations.
i already did a full wipe before flashing again and still the problem is here
I do not know if it is like this already or this just happened after watching an mkv video through BSPlayer.
I'm currently using stock 4.1.2 Poland ROM.
do you guys experience this as well???
please help me.
I have the same problem. Everything else about this phone is really smooth except messaging. Maybe a problem with touchwiz? I'm not sure but it is a little annoying. I was hoping Jellybean would fix it but it's still laggy.
