Upgrade to S7 from S5 - everything is great, except I experience one very annoying issue: many YouTube videos I download for offline viewing ( YouTube Red) start freezing after a few minutes of watching. If I clear the YouTube cache and restart the app it works for a bit and then starts freezing again (the circle in the middle is rotating and the video is frozen).
No freezing happens when I watch videos over the internet.
Here is what I tried to do to fix this issue:
- Wiped cache partition
- Reinstalled YouTube (disabled, updated to new version) and restarted
- Enabled Developer Options and Selected Force GRU rendering - this helped a bit, but did not resolve the issue
- Turned off hardware overlays in Developer Options.
- Turned on 4x MSAA in Developer Options.
- Cleared cache in Google Play app
- Switched download storage from SD to phone to eliminate SD issue
Any ideas?
