Just purchased this phone and I can barely use it. Characters missing, artifacts and everything is jumping everywhere.
Anyone with the same issues?
I can "provoke" this by navigating to show the running apps as shows in the YouTube video, youtube id: WnkXBXWdB_M (Cant post links yet)
It is fully updated at build LRX22g.G925FXXU1AOCV. Tried factory reset with no results..

Another silly n00b question...
Stock ROM, no changes have been made on my gTablet. When I go to YouTube.com, and try to watch a video, I get the error message, "Cannot play video. Sorry, this video cannot be played." Am I supposed to have some sort of an app for playing the videos on YouTube? [I have Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installed, in case that info is helpful to you.]
Thanks for all of your help, wonderful folks at xda-developers!!! I promise, as soon as I can watch YouTube videos, can change the wallpaper (that's more of a "want" than a "need"), and can find an app that works that will show me a count for multiple Gmail AND POP3 email accounts (a definite "need"), I'll be done asking you guys my silly questions! I promise!!
Did you do the OTA(over the AIR) update? Try this first and reboot.
Thanks you for responding, tings. Yes, I DID do the OTA days ago and have have since powered my gTablet off and on quite a few times. it is showing the new updated version, as well. So that's not it. I DI manage to see one (random) YouTube video, but it was so choppy I couldn't hear or see (or understand) a word of it. I just tried to go to YouTube again and wastch a ViewSonic G Tablet video, and again received the "Sorry, this video cannot be played." I seem to not have something installed to play them.
Did you try YouTube native app? Did you also look into browser setting? You might consider downloading flash 10.2.
I myself having pixelation problem with flash video in my tntlite 4.4 win flash 10.2. My mom's stock ROM with flash 10.1 has no issue with pixpixelation.
Sorry, i am noob too.
Try downloading flash 10.2.
Thank you tings and Enectic, for responding! I will do that, and will tell you what happens!
Cool. Let us know.
Well, I had to get the apps store fix done first. Did that, and now have market and gmail and places and maps and a whole bunch of OTHER apps I don't want on my gTablet. Then I went to the market and it couldn't find flash 10.2 (or any other versions). Then I searched for a few other apps I was interested in looking at (like Gmail Unread Count), and it didn't find THOSE either. I'm having a very unproductive day and am getting frustrated. I've been working on finding answers to my questions for 7.25 hours, and have come up empty. I can't figure out how to install my own wallpaper design, I can't watch YouTube videos without getting an error code, and I haven't found an app that will tell me how many unread emails I have in my POP and GMail accounts. I'm 0 for 3 today!
You didn't have to do the market fix to get 10.2. Here's a link to a direct download. Just download and run it directly from your G-Tablet or download it to your computer then transfer it to your G-Tablet.

THANK YOU, Enectic! I appreciate your getting me the link. And yes, I now have all this other stuff I don't need on my gTab. I guess I'll leave it there for a while , and if I don't use it, I'll remove it. [I "thanked" you on the Thank meter!] Wow, maybe I'll now be 1 for 3 today, on my list of things I wanted to do with my new gTablet!
Adobe Flash v10.2 installed (from my PC to the gTab), and it's showing as installed and the correct version on the applications listing in the settings, but I'm still getting the "Sorry, this video cannot be played" error message when I go to YouTube and choose some random videos. Any other suggestions?
No prob, sorry it still didn't end up working for you though. I'm a new G Tablet owner too so still learning myself. Not sure what to tell you, hopefully someone else will be able to help you with your problem.
I have the same issue with the updated OS and YouTube. Is this related to the tablet having no official Flash support?
I am having a similar problem with the videos on my woot tablet. Sometimes they will play and the next time won't. Will never play the king Kong video and once I try and get the error then no vids will play without powering off.
Edit: My second woot tab with no ota works fine. Only a problem on the one I flashed to 3588 since updater down. Now flashed to two taps 9.02 and still the same trouble.
Try this fix in the browser
I went round and round with the Adobe Flash problems. Then I saw a post that said this:
Open the browser
Make sure the full menus are showing (with the address bar showing)
Touch the settings icon to the far right of the address bar
You will three "modes" for viewing among the settings
Select the radio button for "Desktop" viewing
Return to the browser
I did this and what-do-you-know, flash-based movies starting working!
BTW, I received the OTA 4349 update and afterwards, I noticed that I could then use "Tablet" viewing in the browser and the flash movies still worked.
Hopes this helps!

Have you checked your browser setting to make sure you are viewing in desktop display rather than tablet or phone. That was my problem when I had a similar problem.
my first thread. just received viewsonic gtab. charged it turned it on and there was no option to update to 3588.i tried to update it but says system is up to date.. current version is 3389. when i connected to my pc i noticed on the root there was already a recovery and a update zip. file..also angry birds did not work out of the box it would just go to an empty screen. downloaded new one and works fine.somehow i also lost the stock video and pictures that it came with. i hate to go through the trouble of sending it back.. oh cnn videos work a little sluggish though. any thoughts thanks i do plan to add new rom but i got to figure problems first.. i am not very good and tech stuff. hope this makes sense. oh also there is a white spec that seems embedded under the screen protector,not visible when tab is on but bears another mystery.seems like this may have been pre owned. thanks hope to hear your guys opinion. cheers
At this point you might as well follow the instructions to put a rom on it. I didn't update mine but I just put clockworks on it and a rom. Yours sounds messed up already. Worst case you have to send it back.

I have a related questtion. I flashed vegan and did all the fixes, but I still have a small problem. Youtube app works fine, as do youtube videos when I surf there on my browser. However, YouTube videos embedded on other pages do not work (some gibberish code appears instead). Any clues?

Sorry about the double post, but I need some help figuring this out. My inability to play YouTube videos embedded in web pages only happens in dolphin HD (best browser IMO) but not on opera. Do I need some kind of a plugin? Or is there any other fix? Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
I have an issue with the camera/thumbnail generator on my Le Max 2 which I flashed first to Lineage OS and then to Resurrection Remix, and the bug persisted on both roms. Here's a link to the screenshots that show the problem imgur.com/a/Eay0C . The first image is the corrupted thumbnail, the second is what it should be and the last is what occasionally happens when I try to play any video (regardless of whether it was downloaded or taken from the camera, although it seems to occur a great deal more to videos taken by the camera). When I take a video, regardless of what camera app I use, it always has this corrupted thumbnail in exactly the same way. Theres always the green line on the right, the half of the thumbnail that should be at the top is on the bottom side and what should be on the bottom is at the top, along with some weird discolouration. On top of all this, sometimes the camera just refuses to work at all - it takes about 3 seconds of video then says something along the lines of media can't be recorded.
Thank you very much!
Update: I've tried using VLC and the thumbnails appear to be fine so I'm wondering if it's an issue with the gallery's way of generating thumbnails? Does anyone know how I might be able to reinstall the default gallery app?
Update 2: Having cleared the data and the cache for the Gallery, the thumbnail issue still stays
Hey everyone!
I have already posted this issue in my device specific forum (which is the S6), but for a lack of views and replies, I am trying it in the general section too.
So! I am having an issue with my S6 that involves video playback in both youtube and whatsapp, and possibly other apps that I am not yet aware of.
In the youtube app, my phone will play audio, but i only get to see a black screen.
Sometimes, this even changes to showing a picture of the first frame with no sound (or anything happening) at all.
In whatsapp I can click on a video and it opens a player, but it doesn't play anything.
Instead, like sometimes in the youtube app, all I get is a picture of the first frame with nothing happening.
However! youtube works fine in the browser (both chrome and firefox, no issues), and i can watch my whatsapp video's from the gallery as normal too. (but it is still a BIG problem!!!!)
Also! Sometimes when I restart my phone, everything will work fine for a little while (usually for 5 minutes or so) but after a while, it will just break again and goes back to the problem described above.
Lastly! I know on other (samsung) roms that contain an app and framework file called minimode, removing the 2 will cause this exact issue, but these do not seem to be present on my phone. Simply injecting them from other roms won't magically solve it either. (Although I haven't actually found specific nougat versions of these files yet...)
I am experiencing this on different versions of the Stock S6 Nougat AND Marshmallow firmwares, even after full data wipes (including wiping the internal storage).
I have not tried flashing back to Lollipop, but I don't really wanna go down from nougat anyway, so it shouldn't be relevant.
As it does work some times, I find it hard to believe this is a hardware issue...
But I am completely clueless as to what I can do to fix it.
Any help, advice or insight in this issue is much appreciated
Please help me :crying:

Hello,
I have the latest version of Instagram app.
After the last update I am facing couple of problems with the app.
1. Scrolling through the feeds is not smooth as before and it is stuttering.
2. Videos on the feeds are not playing only I can hear the sound of the video. However if I like any of the video then the video turns to complete white (it becomes blank). This problem is specific to videos only. Data saver is not on. But if I am on my profile page then scrolling is absolutely smooth like before and also the videos are playing perfectly.
Also if I go to the profile page of any of my followers or the account which I am following then also the scrolling is smooth and videos are playing perfectly.
This problem is only associated with my feeds only.
3. Under direct chat page if I refresh the page by pulling down, all the contacts are gone on the page and shows nothing.
Cleared the cache and data. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app but no solution.
Internet speed is almost 50 Mbps on average.
Device: Samsung Note 9 Exynos running One UI 2.1.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
