Hi
Whenever i try playing a flash video in the browser (or in skyfire), after i press the play button, the progress bar is moving, i get the audio, but there's no video - the video area remains black.
I'm experiencing this for about 2 months now, in which i switched ROMs (iceandfire, cyanogen), updated the flash player several times, updated skyfire several times (it happens both in skyfire and stock browser), cleared cache of those 3 apps, cleared data, tried to uninstall and reinstall...
nothing helps...
Any ideas?
Thanks
Edit: found a similar thread at cyanogonmod forums:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/..._hl__+black++video__fromsearch__1#entry194047
I'll keep an eye on it over there. I''ld delete this post if I knew how...
I also had this problem, then I downloaded the 10.2.idontknow and it worked again!
i am using the cm 7.0.3 and adobe flashplayer 10.3. seems no problem. i did not do any extra setting. so give it a try.
I have a similar issue. Mine will play fine in the browser, but when I open the video in Youtube after starting a video in the browser, it will start to play, but only audio plays - no video. I am currently using a stock, non-rooted G2. I didn't have this
problem with my last G2 running CM7 though...

I have the same issue. However my YouTube app works fine. An interesting point is videos that automatically open in full screen from the browser work. I'm on cm7.0.3 with the latest flash.
I used to be able to resolve the issue with an older version of flash but now when I do that YouTube gripes that I must update flash player.

Wow I must be lucky, because I've never experience this issue. And I watch youtube dailymotion on the browser and never had this issue

I've had the black screen of death too. Only audio on random embedded videos. Like worldstarhiphop.com for instance. I'll try a fresh rom install and see if that works if no fixed is found in this thread. It's the only thing hindering CM7 based roms.

from the cyanogenmod forums (the link i posted in my first post):
@dewd write:
"Yes. I did 2 things to make it work.
1. I updated to the latest version of Flash in the market (10.3.185.22).
2. I used ROM Manager to "Fix Permissions" (and rebooted).
After these steps I was able to watch Flash movies.
This did not fix Netflix, It plays movies with sound, but no picture. "
it worked for me, took a couple of minutes to fix permissions but then i was able to see flash videos again.
i checked it only in 1 website though...
I have same problem...
Apparently the fix permissions method didn't work...
So I tried what @Tommebaas recommended, and downloaded an old 10.2 version of Adobe Flash Player.
It worked! thanks @Tommebaas
Here's a link to the version that did the trick for me:

10.3 is better and runs flash that 10.2 can't, so that's not really a fix if I downgrade.

What does 10.3 run, that 10.2 can't? I don't view a whole bunch of sites with Flash. But for what I have viewed, I've never had an issue as far back as 10.1. It seems like a lot of the recent updates have had more to do with tablets (and very minor performance enhancements) than anything else.
I moved Flash to SD and it works for me now.

the 10.2 install fixed it for me, idk what is suppose to be special about 10.3 but um if it doesnt work its not better than 10.2 so yeah.
Damn youtube will not work on 3g. I have to be connected to wifi for it to work. Any one else have this problem?
It did the same thing on stock. I am currently rooted running calks rom and its still doing it.

I have an issue where it won't play a whole video. At least most of the time. It'll get maybe half way through the video and then it's like the buffering just stopped so there's nothing else to play. Anymore I just open all YouTube links in Dolphin.

i once had the same issue and for youtube to be able to play videos. i had to factory reset it and install calks rom again. hope this helped.

Even after doing this my youtube videos on low quality still take 45 seconds to load and then it still buffers all the way through the video. If I try to load a video in HD, i have to leave it in the same spot and wait about 3-5 mins for it to start playing. Im in phoneix az where there is no 4G, and my 3G is about .40mbps most of the time.
Anyone else getting this? Using Revolution Rom + siyah kernel.
I downloaded the game over 3g.
Hlaaap!
*Edit* 3g download was the culprit. Downloaded a second time over wifi. All good now.

works fine for me using VillanRom3.0 with RAGEMod 1.1b
are you using chainfire3d?
I wasn't. Then I tried with it. No luck. Must be a download pb. I will start again when I have wifi tonight.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
You have to remember that it isn't an officially supported device so there is no promise that it will work.
That's not what I heard (Engadget news and market comments)...that's why I bought it on the market (if it's there, it's compatible, right?)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I assumed too that being on the market it is compatible. I'll download it over wifi in a few hours after work.
Sent from my GT-I9100 running on CheckRom RevoHD™ v4.0
Rockstar made a mistake with the compatibility part, it'll show compatible with even LG GT540
However, Galaxy S2 is OK and is working fine. Just uninstall all, reboot, reinstall and use WiFi to download the files. DO NOT TOUCH THE SCREEN at any point, unless it's impossible to continue (e.g. "Touch screen to continue", and even then press it only once.). When the gameplay starts, it'll work fine.
So it is? I read one of R* comments on their blogs and they said SGS2 isn't compatible right now because of diffulitites in the hardware.
Works for me with no plugin loaded in chainfire3d. I had to download the data twice because first time it would hang when loading, this is when I tried all the plugins in chainfire3d and none would get past a black screen. I deleted the data (com.rockstar.gta3 folder) from android/data then downloaded it again and it worked. Im on villain by the way. Good luck.
Did you UV/UC your cpu/gpu?
I haven't touched anything. All other games work fine. From the main Gta thread one guy with the same setup has the same pb, while another dude has it working. I bet it was a dl pb. Will check tonigjt.

Works great for me, except that my save games from iOS don't work, it crashes the game right after it's done loading

The first screen takes a while to display the cinematic intro, so give it some time. It'll display Rockstar games and stuff after a few seconds.
What? GTAIII works fine on my SGS2 and it loads up fast. No problems, smooooth as
Solved. Downloaded again over wifi. Works great now, no cf3d requiees. Edited 1st post. Thanks for replies.

Not Working
While my game starts up fine with the Rockstar Cine coming up immediately, I still can't play the bloody game!!
The game starts.
I goto Start Game -> New Game
And this is where the problem occurs. The loading bar goes till 80-85% and then freezes there.
Do you think the Download is an issue (I used Wi-Fi @ 2Mbps. Dled in appx 20-25mins)!
I could really use some help here, guys!

Man, I just can't get this thing to work. I'm such a GTA fan.. And not being able to find a way to get the game to work is getting to my nerves. Isn't there nobody who can solve or atleast answer as to why this keeps happening?

I am rooted and on black bean 2 with the nyan kernel. My YouTube app won't stream videos over wifi. It plays for 5 seconds and buffers and then it goes over again.
Plus Pandora doesn't stream as well. This is over wifi OR 3g. It acts like it's going to play a song and then just skips to the next one. Then it does it again. So it's skipping through songs without actually playing anything.
I am on the 00002 Verizon prl so I get better than average sprint speeds in my area (I have a sprint Nexus).
So any tips for my poor streaming? My og evo streams just fine over wifi. Are there settings I can change? Or kernel and rom tweaks I can do?

This is really all u can do. Disable high quality streaming. If they are I don't know what else to do.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Same issue on black bean. I'm going to try some other kernals.
I'm going to go back to stock and test there. If it works then I know it's the rom/kernel combo. If it doesn't then I know it's the phone.
It just sucks being on wifi and STILL not being able to stream YouTube

I've personally edited my build prob. To stream faster. And you should use my Pandora.
I'm sure you'll love it NO ONE LIKES ADS... and I love to skip alot...Shh keep it on the down low
Here's the apk: https://www.box.com/shared/8b7c4787be177aa18fcc

if it was the wifi freq then the phone wouldnt be able to get any connection at all, plus the OP mentions the problem over wifi and 3G.
Anyone on stock running into the issue? Ive tried a few kernels but its the same all over. It looks like a rom issue.
Just flashed simply android rom and it still doesn't stream pandora via 3g starting to think its my phone. Which is weird though cause I remember listening to Pandora a while back.

I'm getting the same thing on CNA 3.4.1
It must be Easter, Cuz my GNEX is destroying some Jelly Bean!!!
I have attempted several different .apk's as far back as Pandora 1.5.8
I've tried "modified" versions as well as google.market versions
I have located 1 version that works succesffuly on WiFi(I stopped looking after I was able to do that much)... but trust I attempted 10+ .apk's first.
So i've gotten it working on WiFi, but cannot for the life of me get it to work over 3g. I've got a Sprint Gnex myself, and this is becoming very frustrating.
I've been on black bean2, used the new BAMF Paradigm, currently running CNA latest, all with the same results regarding Pandora.
how bout the guy offering his file share those tweaked build.prop setting he was refering too?
doubt it's a setting i'm not familiar with, but i'm willing to try just about anything suggested right now
As far as YouTube, I am streaming a HQ XDA-Developers TV channel video right now as a test. HQ is a little .... I dunno the right word? rebuffers frequently but not horrible(i've gotten 1:30+ straight without inturruption). non HQ is seamless.
Maybe it is JB?

Hello all,
I just got my nexus 7 2013 yesterday! But if I update the newest version of YouTube, it will restart.
If I use any browser Chorme, Aosp, firefox , etc o play video clips from YouTube, or any video pages, it restarts.
I used to have problem with the camera also, but it was fixed with the new update! Has anyone experienced the same problems? And any suggestion to solve? Thank you

This is what I did:
Uninstalled New Youtube app, go back to old YouTube, and it works fine.
Deleted the old youtube and install the new one from play store => restart like crazy
Try to turn on "Force GPU 2D rendering", browsers could go a bit longer than 30 secs before restarting
Every browser has that problem.....
Camera, turned on, and restart, but in the newest firmware with the Q, it was fixed.
Apps like Vevo works normally.
Install Plants VS Zombies 2, restart every now and then

You could always try and go for a complete wipe and flash the Google stock image. I'm pretty sure that it'll be fixed then.

Can I flash stock image through CWM or TRWP?
I think nothing works until now! I bought this in the US, but I came back to Australia already! Cannot return since it is not officially sold in here!
I started thinking about the hardware problems
Hope no one will get bad experience from Google and Asus like me! What a waste of money!
Can only use it to surf web and something like that, multimedia functions are dead!
Anyway! I did a bad choice!

I've got very similar issues, any programs incorporating video randomly lock up and reboot the tablet. I've uninstalled the latest YouTube app and stopped it auto updating which seem to have stabilized that but stuff like Skype still lock up.
Brought mine back from the US to the UK and I'm going to try Asus support see what they say, otherwise I'll have to try rooting and maybe a custom rom in time.
Don't bother to root it! Just bring to Asus since it is official launced there! I rooted, tried a number of different roms, but still the same.
New error for me, flickering screen......
