Play store/Youtube issues

I'm having this really weird issue with these two apps for a while. Basically I would keep getting connection error in the Play store or on Youtube every few minutes or so, then I would retry and everything would be back to normal. Odd thing is that I can have a browser open in a side window and go to google or any other website just fine while this issue happens. I'm not sure if there's more google apps affected. Hell one time it was so bad that Youtube refused to load for a good minute or so, I opened a pen window for the browser, loaded up the same youtube video in there and it started playing before the app even loaded it (kept giving me connection error).
I have Adblock Plus running in the background so I wonder if that's what's doing this..but it seems odd for it to affect these apps.
Any ideas to fix this?

I don't have Adblock but I have issues with YouTube App aswell. It works most of the time flawlessly but sometimes like you it seems to take to long to load so what I do is close the app fully then launch it again and it works fine, I also had another weird issue of whenever I played a video in full screen and changed the tablets orientation it would dim the brightness to 0% (even changing the screens brightness to 100% wouldn't cause the app to brighten up) and hoy a "small weird box with what looked like signal bars next to it", this hasn't happened the last few times I used the tablet but its just bizarre so deffo something is up with the App that's for sure.

[Q] Text selection lags

Hello,
Ive noticed in some apps, and in particular Firefox (and i believe Gmail), that selecting text sporadically LAGS on my Galaxy S3 running Cyanogenmod 10.1.3.. to the point where dragging the markers to the left or right is delayed by several seconds.
Has anyone experienced severe text selection lag? Any debugging steps?
Ive undergone many app updates, and updating from C 10.1.0 to 10.1.3, without change. Happens sporadically it seems. Does this happen on stock rom? I haven't been stock for a while and can't go back.

I have been on stock for a while and so far I haven't had that issue. Could be an issue with your keyboard app or just a plain bug.

forgot to note, I do use SwiftKey keyboard
It did it again today in Firefox, and I noticed it was not fully zoomed in (eg: normally when you select a textbox the page zooms into that field). clicking the textbox a few more times until the page zoomed in in Firefox 'fixed it'... hmm

Horrible lag after running Super Hexagon

Sometimes when I launch Super Hexagon, the game runs terribly slow. It feels like it's running at 15-20 FPS instead of 60 FPS. The weird part is that this lag persists after I exit the game. The whole system becomes super slow with choppy animations.
I've tried killing the app and even clearing the data, but the only thing that seems to fix this is a reboot. I can reproduce this behavior after rebooting again. It usually happens on the 2nd or 3rd time I launch the app, but sometimes it can take up to 10 times of closing and launching. Holding the tablet vertically seems to trigger it faster (although I'm not completely sure if it's related yet).
I'm running completely stock KOT49H and version 1.0.5 of Super Hexagon.
I haven't been able to reproduce this on my Nexus 4 or my old Nexus 7 (2012).
Can anyone else confirm that this happens on their Nexus 7 (2013)? I'm just wondering if it's a bug/compatibility issue or if it's a problem with my device

Just a quick update: Tried changing to ART with and flashing the latest franco kernel (just to experiment), and it still happens in the exact same way

I know this is a late response but I had the same thing happen to me twice tonight and I found your thread while googling for the issue myself.
Force closing the app doesn't help. It seems I have to reboot to fix it.
Have you by any chance figured out a fix? I'm running a 2013 n7 completely stock

Haven't found a fix yet
It's clearly a software issue though, either with the game or the latest N7 2013 build. Maybe someone who's more skilled could check the debug log (or something) to figure out the cause.

Hey
EDIT:
to fix this problem, open your favorite file explorer..
navigate through android/data/(superhexagon package file name)
go to settings.dat
change vsync from 1 to 0

I confirm, the only solution is to reboot... Very annoying if it happens while you break a record

Wow, I am astonished by Google. It has been over a year now and this problem STILL exists, I am having the exact same problem as described in the OP with several apps. How come this problem gets so little attention? Should be well known by now.
All those fancy design changes but who cares about actual system stability.

^What apps? I've never had this problem and this is my first time reading about it.
It's up to the app developer to keep their **** updated to work well with new versions of android. Nothing to do with google.

No way apps are supposed or even able to mess with the whole system like that and this bug doesn't happen on other devices like nexus 5 with the same apps so it's obviously just the device. I mean did you even read the thread you ignorant prick? The thread creator said too that he can't reproduce it with other devices such as Nexus 4 or Nexus 7 2012.

[Q] Somethings Wrong with my S4

Hi guys, I never posted here but am trying to find some help. I've had my S4 for quite a while now, and I just factory reset everything because I kept getting a "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." message that wouldn't go away or let me use my phone without an interruption literally every 2 seconds. But before I even had that problem, there were worse problems as well. There are two things that occur frequently:
1. Sometimes, when I tap on an icon, the indicator light shows up (a glow around the icon), but the app itself does not open. Then, if i tap on it repeatedly, nothing happens. I can temporarily fix this problem by opening up the recent/opened apps list (holding home button) and clearing everything (or clicking on that app if it had been opened). Once cleared, I can tap it again and it would open. As you might see, this can get very annoying and troublesome after doing it so many times. Is there anyway I can permanently fix this so that I don't need to keep clearing the open apps list?
2. Sometimes, when I unlock my screen, exit an app, press the home button, or clear the opened app list (as mentioned above), my wallpaper changes to an app. The app is usually random and sometimes is not one that I had opened. For example, the background of my messaging app or Astro File Manager would show up even if I had not recently opened it at all. I can also temporarily fix this by clearing the recent/opened apps list (as mentioned in #1). After clearing this, the wallpaper resets. Is there any way I can fix this permanently as well?
3. Snapchat and VSCO Cam constantly "stop unexpectedly". I don't know if this is a firmware or incompatibility issue, but it usually works fine. This message pops up once in a while and isn't too burdensome, but is still quite annoying.
Thank you for all the help in advance. I am trying to get the most out of my phone and appreciate any help.

Are you running stock or custom and has anything changed since you factory reset?

It's stock right now. Not rooted or anything at all. I didn't really change much of the device internally, only downloaded a couple of apps, but those have been working fine since the beginning. It is running Kit Kat, 4.4.2. I am currently using Nova Launcher as my home screen replacement.

razer freezing

2-3 times the phone has totally freezed for me so I had to restart it, same on my brother's razer. Anyone else having this problem.

I've had a few random freezes too. Mostly while in the Facebook app. Although all buttons became unresponsive.

Facebook isn't exactly the most stable right now. If I try to use the market page, guaranteed to freeze up and crash.

Happened to me today as well. Google framework supposedly crashed which caused a system wide freeze. Had to reboot the phone.

I couldn't say I've seen it freezing on me however it has randomly rebooted a few time so maybe have not seen it freeze up but when I went back to it the phone had restarted itself.

My Razer phone freezes 1-2 times a day. Sometimes I'm using the phone, and it gets unresponsive except for the lock-button, but I can never unlock the phone after that. Sometimes it just wont unlock.
Every time this happens I have to restart the phone.

I've had a couple random restarts as well..

After getting such a freeze it would be cool if you could go to Settings->Developer Settings->get bug report->Full bug report.
That will generate a zip which can be used for debugging. If someone uploads it, I can take a look.

After the latest update my phone will randomly lock up. The screen will go blank and the phone will just turn off. Yeah..

I have 2 issues I can't pin down that might be related:
1. Roughly 1 in 4 times I launch anything on Netflix (I only watch downloaded offline stuff), the phone will freeze and then instantly reboot. I'm not sure what causes it to make it reproducible, but after the reboot it's always fine. Haven't had issue with vlc.
2. So today I noticed more than usual the sound in the headphones (attached via the jack dongle) cutting out. Previous fix was to pull out dongle and reinsert and it was fine. This time no joy, in fact moving the dongle while the sound was working resulted in crazy distortion and when I tried to reboot I got a freeze.
In both cases the dongle might have been the culprit. Would be interested to see if others are freezing while using a dongle or not.

I have issues with IG freezing up pretty hard.

I have the same Netflix issue than you and it's very frustrating. The only thing that seems to slow this phone down is the thing it specialises in.. Netflix hdr hmmmm

For me snapchat freezez my phone temporary

Has anyone experiencing the unresponsive screen / freezing problems with the Razer phone (first phone) found a solution that prevents the freezing from recurring?
Rebooting the phone via the Volume up + Power buttons will restart the phone, but that is not a fix of the core issue.
