Galaxy A5 2016 (6.0) (Stock) YouTube 1080p60fps problem. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone.
I have a problem with my A5 2016 (Snapdragon Version), the problem is YT app, I can't play ANY video in 1080p60fps.
I have this problem since I updated my device to android 6.0. I've tried everything what uncle Google suggested me.
Clearing data/cache, reinstalling updates...
When I had android 5.0 problem was solved by disabling HW overlays and forcing 2D GPU rendering in dev options.
Details of a problem:
Image freezes
Sound does not
I also had this problem while I owned S4, but then, I didn't even had option to choose 1080p60fps. (cm13 OPTIMIZED)
Phone not rooted, stock kernel and ROM, Knox flag untouched.
(1080p50fps works perfect)
Thanks for all responses.

Fix
Hi m8 found a fix! Just by using OGYoutube (unofficial yt app) 1080p60fps seems fine, on my device at least.

Try this, maybe it'll work.

It's not the problem I described (I can choose 1080p60fps, but image freezes and only audio is still going), besides I already did this what they suggest.

Does it do that on even the browsers?

Yup

Found an "solution", minimizing app and playing video after coming back to app makes 1080p60fps working, although 1080p50fps works flawless without this, only 60 is the problem

Camera related apps (Dailyroad, Autoguard) not working, camera app fine!

Hi,
Ok, strange title, I admit, bit it describes exactly what problems I am encountering.
My camera app is working fine, but I cannot use camera related apps. I didn't try a lot of apps but the main 2 I want to use (or 1 of both) are Dailyroads Voyager and Autoguard. I want to use my camera as a dashcam. Unfortunately, recording video in these apps won't work. I've tried different options in terms of quality, codecs, resolution, framerates, bitrates,... nothing works. I've also had lengthy mails with the Dailyroads developer, sending him logs. All to no avail.
The standard camera app works flawlessly. I can make vids and pictures no problem at all, 8MP stills and 1080p video. When I flash the photosphere app, it works as expected. Spheres and stills work, for video the sound works but picture is distorted. Which is, as I said, as expected. I've read numerous accounts of the video recording not working.
The strange thing is this only happens on certain ROMs. I've tried Resurrection Remix, and that worked. I then switched to JellyBam (couple of months) where it didn't work. Now in the last couple of days, I tried TurkbeyRom, and hollt [email protected], it worked! However, TurkbeyRom hurts my eyes. Menus are just too 'busy' (can't think of the proper word). So then I switched to SuperNexus since 2 days. Excellent ROM. It improved my battery life with about 1/3rd. But unfortunately, both Dailyroads and Autoguard don't work.
Is there anyone who can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Nobody?
Just to add clarification: The apps work, I can go through settings etc, but from the moment I hit the record button, the image freezes and recording fails.
I'm still having this issue. Anyone?

Well i guess it's rom related, because i am using CM 10.1 and a few games aren't working (Dungeons Hunter 4 and other games), but they work on stock rom and some other roms.

I'm afraid it is rom related, but maybe someone knows a fix? It's a bit strange I think that some roms have this problem and others don't. Even stranger is that I can't seem to find anyone else with problems relating to apps using the camra.

When did you try out CM13? I'm running it on my PERSONAL phone (which is indeed a i9300). The phone is resonsive and really fast. It used to be slow but now it's fast.

YouTube no more than 360p

Hi there, this is my first post but I'm not new to the world of custom ROMs.
I have had many ROMs over the years and have recently flashed the slimsaber 4.4.4 v9 with dorimanx 3.14.
All seems to be well apart from a few minor issues that are not of any concern. That is apart from YouTube! My favourite app. It will no longer allow my to select anything greater than 360p. Kind of annoying. I have tried many things to fix this. Like flashing the ROM again. Adjusting DPI to 200. Even used xposed installer. And I can't figure it out.
It was working fine on my previous ROM (jb. I went back to stock ROM) I have not reflashed since the problem but might try as a last resort.
Please can someone help with this. I have read many forums that date back a few years relating to this issue and have tried suggested fixes.
Why is this happening? Could it be a hardware problem?
Thanks
Mark

Hi
I suppose you searched already in slimsaber 4.4.4 thread for you tube problems? I saw several posts concerning this matter.
Does you tube properly work when using Browser (test not only with stock Browser but others like Dolphin).

Thanks for quick response.
YouTube only plays audio on stock browser. On dolphin it works the same as the app.
I'll check the threads again.
Are there any video drivers that can be installed. Is there a way of formatting that will rectify it? Any one have any suggestions?
@elemenopy
I don't quite get what the point is. I think our device's screen resolution is only 360p, right? So it doesn't make sense to try bigger resolutions in YouTube, as you will see no difference. Someone correct me if this is wrong.
As far as i know screen resolution is 480 x 800 pixels

Hi,
You can't install any video drivers onto the ROM as the correct ones are provided by the kernel.
If you really want higher than 360p, try using this modded youtube app:
[MOD] YouTube 4.4.11 (v5b), *1080p* / 720p HD (over WiFi & 3G), screen off playback
Please note that the screen resolution is 480p, but youtube only defaults to 360p.
Note: Dev-host link is a bit dodgy because one of the download buttons seem to be an ad. The correct download button is safe and I've used it on my S2.

Yeah, forgive my ignorance on that part. I'm back on stock 4.1.2 and YouTube only allows 360p. However, I guess the reason why I was hunting for this 'fix' was due to a pixelated image on YouTube when on the slimsaber rom. Also the stock browser would not play video image only audio. This has now gone back to normal now that I'm on jb.

Oreo - strange problems with sound and videos

Hi, after upgrade to Oreo I have strange problems with sound and videos. Don't know for what reson the sound stops suddenly and the video works frame by frame. It does not matter if it's video from gallery or YT or music from spootify or built-in player. After reboot everything is ok but no one knows when it will happen again.
EDIT: ok I know when this start to happend. After using of @cstark27 google phone app ;/ Anyone can confirm that?
look for an apps that eats CPU or has memory leaks.
however you might put it... your installed apps are to blame
I can confirm that problem. It also happens with other gcam mods. I guess for now using the stock camera app seems to be the only solution :/
EDIT: It only seems to happen when using HDR or HDR+. During the HDR post processing (which is inidicated through that little loading animation in the gallery app) music suddenly stops playing.
EDIT 2: I think i found a solution. As odd as it may sound, but enabling camera.raisr in the developer settings stops the camera from breaking music and video playback.

Mhmm very strange. I did reinstall the app tough. Maybe the combination of reinstalling, enabling camera.raisr and clearing the apps cache afterwards fixed it
Unfortunetly still the same...Have no idea whay is wrong.
Does enabling the camera.use_photos option on both apps, and force closing/rebooting solve it?
So it seems that to fix the issue, one need to do this in that order :
• Clear Data from both apps
• Reboot (might not be needed but sound safer)
• Go back under Developper settings of both apps and uncheck camera.raisr and check camera.use_photos
Seems to be stable after this, even after subsequent phone reboots
Will add this to this forum sticky
Thanks cstark ! Will keep you posted if the reboots come back.

Question Youtube buffering

Any idea how to fix youtube buffering ? My internet is strong, i don't have this problem on other devices. Basically when i turn from 720p to 1080p it starts to buffering, any fix for it?
YouTube Vanced - Download YouTube Vanced APK
YouTube Vanced is modded version of YouTube client for Android
youtubevanced.com
Try this
YouTube Vanced is no longer being actively developed and has been discontinued. However, there is an alternative called ReVanced, which is a community-driven project that continues to provide a similar ad-free YouTube experience with additional features. If you enjoyed using YouTube Vanced, you may want to give ReVanced a try.
Alternatively, NewPipe works well, too.
