    Media files (Youtube, audio books etc) pause for no reason

    Ok. Sage continues. A strange thing happened with this problem of mine this morning and maybe it'll shine some light on what's going on. Well, you know sometimes your wifi gets stuck and the only way you can get it to work again is to turn it off and then turn it back on again? Well, that happen...

    The problem started two nights ago. I was actually looking at the phone when it started. It just paused for no reason and when I hit the play button I got another 15 seconds and it did it again and on and on. The phone did get an OTA up grade last week but that was several days before the...

    Media files (Youtube, audio books etc) pause for no reason

    Sorry...You misunderstood me. What I should have said is "it doesn't matter WHICH media player I use, they all do it!" Musicolet, Pocketcast, Tunein radio, Youtube, google play music ect.....they all pause after 5 to 10 seconds. But if I turn my bluetooth off they all work perfect again until I...

    Does anyone have any other ideas? There must be some fix to this problem now that we know it's bluetooth oriented?

    It didn't bring up anything for resetting bluetooth (or anything else) I could reset finger prints or passwords or do a factory reset but nothing about network reset or bluetooth reset.

    As far as I can tell only my watch was connected but I've unpaired it but the problem is still there if I have the bluetooth activated. Is there some way to reset the bluetooth?
