YouTube App & Web Page Freezing/Crashing?

[xQuencher]

Hey everyone, my first post

So this started several days ago: whenever I watch a video on the YouTube app, it will randomly freeze and display the loading symbol. Waiting for it to load never works (I've waited about 5 minutes before with a full strength internet connecton), and the screen turns black if I press the back button. Home button works fine, will take me to the home screen. Same thing on the mobile web page.

I've un-rooted the device (I really just didn't need it) flashed the stock ROM for 4.1.1 and updated it, so I didn't expect any issues.

Does anybody else have this problem and/or do you know how to fix it?

Thanks.

Try going to Settings->Apps->YouTube, and clear the cache and/or the data.

Thanks, it hasn't crashed after doing that yet
