Help [metropcs] Google play movies issues

[ChiweN]

Hey guys, so here's my issue. When I first got the gs3 (metropcs) I played a movie from Google play movies as I was letting the battery die down before I charged for the first time. The movie played without issue.

Last night I was trying to watch an episode of the walking dead on Google play movies and it would play for a few seconds, buffer, play a few seconds more then freeze. It's still doing it this morning. I've cleared the cache and data, as well as dalvik. Tried uninstalling the updates as well. It's just not working anymore.

Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix. I have a lot of movies and tv shows bought from Google play and I'd hate to have to download them all to watch them every time.

I tried streaming from both wifi and 4g.

Can you confirm this is not a network issue. Maybe your Wi-Fi was flaky at the time too?
Try another movie.
If it still happens, clear data for Google play, Google play movies, cache and reboot.

I've done all that twice. I thought the same thing about having a bad connection, but it's still happening today, on 4g, wifi at home and now my works wifi.
