Root [Boost Mobile] YouTube play back

[Rally 517]

Something I just notice. When I'm looking at YouTube the app. I try to watch in full screen mode and it plays upside down. Is there a fix

 

[wetbiker7]

What ROM are you running? I remember reading that issue in one of the many threads I've read through.



EDIT: Have you tried removing YouTube and re downloading from PLay?

 

[Rally 517]

Yeah I tried un installing it. And tried two different rooms. MOAR and wicked.

 

[wetbiker7]

Weird. I just checked it and it's working fine for me on MOAR.

I'll do some digging around and see if I can find anything. Have you searched the Sprint section here and at XDA to see if there's anything about this happening? I know for a fact I've read about it somewhere when going through threads for the S3.

 

[Rally 517]

I've been looking haven't seen anything. Been thinking of going back to complete stock and start over

 

[Rally 517]

So when you watch YouTube in full view the screen doesn't flip upside down

 

[wetbiker7]

Nope. Watching in front of me on my desk as I type and it's working perfectly.


Edit: Been doing some reading and I've found a few people with the same issue. Factory resets have been advised to fix it.

Is it only with YouTube? How about with your stock video player? How about with your internet browser?

Are they all working properly?

 

[Rally 517]

Yeah just YouTube

A few have fixed the issue by flashing a kernel, factory resets, etc. There are several options in here. The thing here is most of the people in this thread are having the issue with the phone itself and not just an app.

I know you are probably not doing this but I've got to ask anyways... are you restoring any YouTube data with an app like Titanium or anything?

I'm still digging. I won't make another post, I'll just EDIT this one and add whatever I else I find. I know it sux but you may end up needing a full wipe.

What's REALLY bugging me is I know I've seen this issue before and a fix but I don't remember where. lol

 

[Rally 517]

I'm gonna do a few things a report back.

 

[Rally 517]

Success! !! I went back to stock and re did every thing. But I load data from tb this time everything works. Thanks for your help biker. Youalways have been an advocate for these forums. I remember seeing you and your roms from the prevail days.

Okaynote in back again but I know what it is or should be. Do you have a stock kernel zip

No, I sure don't. Smith might though.

 

[Rally 517]

I fixed it again. Lol it was the kernel

 

[smith058]

Stock kernel = stock boot.IMG
Advanced restore from cwm/TWRP and select only boot.IMG from your first backup, this would give you stock kernel.

Yup. That link I posted, they were flashing a kernel to fix their issues. Nice to know you've got it taken care of. :thumbup:

 

[Rally 517]

Yeah I'm using kernel by ktoonz now. What Governors do you prefer and schedulers also

I like ROW and Pegasusq. I've been playing with it though. Those settings work good but I know I can get it set up better. lol

There is a whole thread dedicated to that kernel. Here the link to it.
