Seems that on my ATT lg v10, completely stock, 1440p youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time, and 60fps options are completely gone. Has anyone else had this issue or is it just me? My nexus 7 2012 plays the same videos just fine
and yes ive cleared cache and uninstalled the app and such. Might need a factory reset
I'll add that I've got a 45mbps connection that should be perfectly capable of 60fps and 1440p

Got an OTA from AT&T this afternoon that seems to have fixed 1440p. I went about 2 minutes into a video before I decided it was fixed. 60fps is still broken. I like need 60fps

Tell me if you find anything. I really want this fixed. So annoying. Is it working for anyone else? Is a factory reset worth it?
You should post the links of the videos you have issues with. it'd be easier to verify whether other people are having issues with the same videos.

I'm having issues playing 1080p videos as well! Buffers every 10 seconds. I'm getting 80+mbps so it isn't bandwidth. Going back to T-Mobile to see if I can get this issue addressed.

Same here. Even playing vids in 1080p now show very lackluster performance. I've factory reset 4x before I went into the tmobile store to explain and demonstrate the issue. They refused to budge. The $50 dollar restock fee would not be waived for a replacement. Regardless of the fact that the display model V10 also had the same problems, while the G4 beside it performed excellently. They might be more helpful at your store though. Good luck :good:

Netflix is here for Android users!
I've packaged up the APK into an easy little installer that takes about 5 seconds.
Have fun!
EDIT: This was pulled from an LG Revolution dump. It doesn't allow you to play anything streaming yet. But it does allow for everything else.
Sooo close!
I got really excited when I saw this. Can't wait till its all ironed out and ready to go.
Thanks for this! Can't wait until we can get streaming, and also Hulu Plus for that matter. Down with traditional cable!
Cant wait til I can actually stream lol
Is this new? Its been leaked for about a week or more and I already installed it. I really thought this was a working version and was pretty happy.

The original post from this discussion was from a week ago. Someone just commented and bumped it.
Might be a stupid question. But do you have to pay for these movies?
If yes, why not just use the regular Netflix service.

If you have a Netflix account then you can stream "Watch Instantly" movies over the phone, just like you can on the computer or Roku box.
i thought the deal was that you'd need a phone with the right drm capabilities before being allowed to stream? Not saying it won't get hacked for other phones, but i'm a little skeptical that we'll be able to just pull an apk and get streaming.
Just downloaded and tried it with my Atrix and Netflix account. Streaming is allowed and videos start to load, but after a few seconds screen goes white, then flashes back to Netflix main page.

anyone heard anything about when the official launch is i want to see the vid qual streaming over LTE
Hi. I'm creating this thread because I can't seem to find any solution to this.
HD video recording basically sucks .
No matter what ROM or kernel, when I try to record both 720 and 1080 video, the image keeps stuttering (I think that's the term, but I'm not sure which word I should use to describe this in english) in intervals of a few seconds.
That is, starts working smoothly, then the images start "jumping", then works well again, etc... Like if it recorded at very few FPS at times.
I've thought this could be any number of things. Maybe the phone can't write fast enough on the SD card, but I tried both internal and external, also the external worked fine with my SGS, and also the image behaves exactly the same on both 720 and 1080, and if it was a writing problem 1080 should be worse.
Then I thought "kernel problem"... Exactly the same behaviour on stock, speedmod and siyah. "Schedulers"... the same thing.
I tried on a S2 of a friend. Same terrible recording.
It bugs me that I don't see mny people complaining about this, and seems to be a general problem.
So, is there a solution to this? The first SGS recorded well and the S2 can't? What's up with that?
I do not is the same problem but when start to take a video in 720p the camera begining to blinking. The problem is only in 720p and I have stock version 2.3.4 UHKG7.
That's a weird problem. I haven't bothered with any 1080p recording, but 720p on the stock Camera app at highest bitrate has been smooth as butter. None of the weird stuff you guys are reporting. I guess no one else is complaining because they don't have the same issues?
Can't think of what else you could try other than 1) checking Samsung Apps store for any newer camera firmware or 2) revert to stock ROM, don't install any apps and just run the Camera to see if the issue comes up again. If it does, probably means faulty unit?
You could check this link out from GSMArena.com.It explains about the video capture and the shakiness between the 720 and 1080 being caused by the auto focus and the scaling down of the 8mpx sensor in 1080p mode and the problem of digital noise in 1080p mode.They recomend 720p.

The thing is that I tried to record 720 with another S2, older and from another brand, and behaves exactly the same...
I'll see about that firmware update, and that gsmarena thread. Thanks.
Edit: The updater says I've got the last firmware. Damn...
Edit+: I CAN NOT believe this. I never could record a video without the mentioned problem. All right. I thought I could record a couple to upload here and show the problem.... It didn't happen
I recorded both 720 and 1080 for a minute each, and the problem didn't happen. Nothing has changed since yesterday. I am utterly confused.
i have the same issue what you have did with ??? which camera fw ??? thanks
It happens to me also. I opened a thread here on xda about this problem, but no one answered. I believe it is extremely obvious in lower light, but it can be spotted even outside, in sun. I cannot use 720p/1080p videos, they are terrible. I ordered an usb jig lately, i will take it to warranty and change it.
It is a well known issue! Have a look in the cam thread on here which deals with the red dot and later with the stuttering.
I contacted Samsung about it and they basically said: Send in your device! I only bought it a week ago.
The problem has been known since June and Samsung is giving a sh*t about it and doesn't fix the problem which is said to be a firmware problem.
yes I agree, it just sucks.

As spected the joy didn't last long and the problem returned.

I picked up my pre-order Nook Tablet from local B&N store right after work today. But unfortunately after playing with it for a while i began noticing some flickering issue with flash streaming videos (most amazon video and youtube video i tried suffer from the same issue to some degree). I took the NT back to to B&N store and talked with a nook specialist, and we try the same video on 2 other demo NT unit on the counter, and they also have the problem.
We agree that this is most likely an Adobe flash player app issue, and can be taken care off with a software update, but there is no telling how long it will take for B&N to release a software fix. So for now i decided to return the NT before my 14 day refund period.
To see the problem yourself, play this following youtube video in 720p, you should notice the video flickering issue within the first 10 second.
http://youtu.be/5n4V3lGEyG4
The good news is that this issue doesn't affect people who does not use the NT as their streaming video player (i have amazon prime instance videos that i stream alot). I also tested MP4 video directly loaded on to the NT, and it doesn't have the same flicker issue.
So i just want to let you guys know about this issue. I still think the NT is a great upgrade for my NC, but i will be holding off on repurchasing it until either B&N work the issue out, or CM7 come to our device.
Just tested the video you posted, with no issue.
No flicker at all.
Telling you, it's something with that batch of Nooks.
No flicker here at all, but the audio seemed to be just off a tad from the movement in their lips.

Ive seen that in a lot of music videos, thats just the effect they use.. slowed down movements..
Hmmmm, I tried that link from My Nook Tablet and it just stuck at "Loading Video..." before it finally give me an error that said:
"Activity Browser (in application Browser) is not responding."
lol.
You have 14 days, and you returned it within 20 hours?
ok.
Hmm so far DarkDvr seem to be the only person that detected a hint of the flickering i am talking about. I guess I am just super sensitive to the video flickering issue, since that is what I use my NC, and the NT mostly for. There is hope that soon as CM7 hits the NT, this issue will be resolved.
Also hopefully the news about the NT having a locked bootloader is not true. I really like the form factor of the NC and NT, having the "n" button next to the screen make turning the screen on for the NC and NT really convenient. But without CM7, NT is no where as useful as a full tablet as it can be.

So we might actually be dealing with 2 separate problem with the NT building in Flash player (10.3.186). Not a good sign, hopefully B&N will release a firmware upgrade very soon to update the flash player to 11.1, and fix the 1GB user storage space issue.

Regarding flash - seriously, I have no issues with flash at all. Maybe you guys are watching some weirdly buggy flash videos somewhere..
I watched like 6-7 20-40 minute vids on youtube in bed last night - all in 720p HD. I didn't see any flickering or sound problems, it was beautiful and as good as it possibly can be.

The interview video - yes, there was very minor flickering there, but if you didn't tell me, maybe I wouldn't even have noticed.
Besides, that was the ONLY flash video that I've seen this happen in, so I'm willing to blame the player or that particular video.
I saw it too.. only noticeable in one area of the screen.. near the top of the video.. not noticeable unless it is full screen.. and only on youtube..
netflix looks perfect..
Every flash video that I have watched (YouTube, FOX and ABC) has had about a 2 second delay on the voices. It did not happen on a video that I have uploaded. Like the rest of you I am hoping that an update will be released in the near future and I REALLY hope that development on this thing starts. I love the form factor and the specs, but the device is really disappointing from an out of the box approach.
Mobile flash is quite disappointing.. there's a reason adobe is dropping it.. I've yet to have a good mobile flash experience on any device..

m.youtube is working fine for me. No delay on any videos that I have seen.
Just fired up amazon instant video in the browser, and I'm definitely seeing some significant flickering, though only on the top part of the video.
I purchased the G3 on release date and was excited when I got time to test it out. YouTube happened to be one of the first Apps I tried and I found that it took quite some time to actually start a video up (this is with 3-4 bars of Verizon 4G LTE) and when it finally did start it would only play for about 2 seconds and then start buffering again...this happened continuously for a couple minutes until I got frustrated with the buffering (pausing the video and trying to let it buffer didn't work either) and decided to close the App.
I have had the phone for about a week now and for some reason if I open Chrome on my phone and go to the YouTube website, videos stream without issue, but I'm still having problems with the YouTube App. Is anyone else experiencing this as well? I asked a rep at the Verizon store and was told that so far I'm the only one at that store.
YouTube
Same here, having the opposite problem of most everyone else, streams fine on Wi-Fi massive buffering on LTE.

A lot of people have had problems with recent updates to the youtube app. Many confirmed that changing their dns to a different dns server fixed the problem. However if the problem is on LTE I do not know if this is possible. Just trying help hunt down the source of the problem.
Sorry, I meant that the YouTube app itself doesn't work with LTE. but when I use my internet app and go to YouTube.com with LTE videos play just fine.

YouTube App
Yeah, its an off problem. Streaming via the app over wi-fi works fine for me, when I'm on LTE there I'm seeing an inordinate amount of buffering.
I assume its the app, I haven't tried streaming via the web but that seems like it should be an unnecessary work-around.

Its rather unfortunate as it is a great phone but some minor flaws are putting quite a damper on being able to fully enjoy it. My battery life is horrible too...apparently the amazing screen is too much for the battery, which drains while just sitting in my pocket. Hardly using my phone throughout the day I end up having to put my phone on the charger as soon as I get home. Meanwhile a friend of mine has the G2 and is able to brag about his battery life.

After a bit of adjusting I managed to get home after a 8 hour shift and light phone use with 51% battery left.
Things that have worked bes for me on two different phones:
Turn off WiFi if you are walking around a lot.
Turn off location reporting by network discovery! Leave it at GPS if you need location info. I have been testing this for over 6 months on a galaxy note 3 and I find very little battery use this way.
Disable all the Amazon crapware. You can keep on the Kindle app if you need to view off files.
Obviously watch screen brightness. I have mine on manual.
Turn off the shortcut keys on the volume if you keep it in your pocket. Several times mine turned on by accidently and I got a buch of great burst shots of my pocket!
Hope these help..
install an older version of YouTube ~5.5-5.7
I know on this phone and others as soon as YouTube updated to 5.7+ it started to buffer all the time... likely an issue because it detects verizon... however, switching back to an older version allows me to fully play videos on 4G LTE with no issue. So I'm running 5.5 and it's running flawlessly... and while there could be newer features, it is just fine for me.
Edit: this method worked on my galaxy nexus which just retired ... changing versions I the g3 hasn't made a ****s-worth of a difference. Still buffering every 4-5 seconds.
Hi, has anyone had any popping, crackling, or skipping when listening to music? I get it about twice to 3 times per hour when listening to spotify or local music. There was one time in particular where i was listening to music, when opening the recents menu and opening a recent app caused a serious crackling distortion.
Should I return my phone?
Side note: have tried safe mode. Crackling still occurs. Have tried repeating the same file. Crackilng does not occur at the same time.
Second side note: on version 119. Phillipines has no updates beyond that.
Mine does it too. This phone has more bugs than a bush tucker trial!
Haha. Yeah, it does. I've also have had apps randomly open sometimes and another music player play for a few seconds when I press play on Spotify, then return to spotify. I'm planing to try and have my handset exchanged tomorrow at the store. Hopefully they will.
I do believe this phone has really great potential, if only it wasn't so buggy.
Had too sometimes.
However, I think problem is Oreo, not the phone!
I want to believe it's oreo, since everything else on my phone works great (minus the hiccups mentioned above). No wifi or reception issues. Not even sure I want to get a replacement and do a lottery again.
so glad to see its not just me. phone is terribly buggy. settings turning on and off. sometimes after being on the phone for like 5 mins, the phone locks itself. sometimes without me even touching the phone eg when im watching youtube with it propped up on my desk. has anyone who exchanged their phone actually received one that doesnt have these issues though?
whats up with the blue light remaining on in settings when you turn a setting off? UI nightmare
Hmm. This makes me think we should run a poll so we can identify the common issues everyone is having to rule out hardware issues.

A lot has to be with Oreo as these issues don't exist in other Huawei phones. Also i wonder if some of these unreleased roms that folks are using have bugs in it compared to the official roms received via OTA.
