Playing videos after 4.1 update

[den064]

Is any one having issues playing videos in full screen mode. When I play a video the screen turns black after a few seconds and when I touch the screen the video turns back on. This is for any videos and only happened after I did the JB for ATT.

This happens when I watch videos on the chrome browser, but using a browser like dolphin has no issues. I'm on sprint BTW.

If you go into developer options and check disable hw overlays videos will play in Chrome. You have to do it every time you reboot the phone though.

I've had this same problem. Will try the advice given about the developer option and see if it helps.

Thank you!! I've been having issues with videos in FB and Play store for the past few months and was forced to press the volume buttons to keep the videos playing on the screen. This fixed it for me
