Hi,
I have a problem with my S4 i9505 : for few days, it's impossible to watch videos on my phone without lag or freeze...
When I play a video from Youtube or phone internal storage, the video plays for few seconds and then, the image freezes and the sound continues...
Next, the video restart but the image and the sound aren't synchronized.
It's very boring!
Is there a fix for this problem?
Thanks in advance!
I have that problem too and the only fix seems to be rebooting the device every (or every other) day.
I'm also having this issue... anyone aware of a fix?
What rom are you guys running?

Hi,
At the moment I am running the stock ROM of the s4. i9505.
I am NOT currently rooted and the baseband version is I9505XXUHOJ2 - this is the latest version for BTU.
A reboot does fix the issue for a few hours but it can get irratating - I've tried a factory reset and another flash in Odin but it hasn't fixed it.
Thanks.

Have you tried a different player?
Maybe it's done kind of memory leak.
It's more to do with videos that play through apps such as the Youtube, BBC News videos (through the app) etc which lag so I don't see how a different player would help?
I have this too, it is on every app.
The video stops for 1 second while the sound is still playing in the background and then the sound lags.
Tried delete cache from recovery but then my phone crashes.
Touchwiz...
Then it's a touchwiz problem. Thank samsung for that. I use youtube on an aosp custom marshmallow rom and videos play just fine.
Which rom? Lol
There is only one aosp marshmallow rom, and that is the one from jdc team. Every other rom is some kind of cm13 variation or based on cm13.

Hello Everyone,
For some reason, no matter what ROM I flash, each have the common issue of any sound causing crashes. This includes trying to make a phone call, listen to music, or watch a video. I am currently running on AOSP SlimRom 4.4.2 (not like this is ROM exclusive, it has happened on every ROM I have tried).
This problem occurred once I semi-bricked my phone, I flashed stock, and then re-rooted. After that, it seems as if no ROM has been fully functional. SlimRom has been wonderful and works in every aspect except the sound issue.
Does anyone have any idea what it could be? If you need more information just let me know and i'll be sure to provide it.
EDIT: I also face data drops when I lock my phone (and reconnects when it unlocks), not sure if this is relevant but worth mentioning.
Thank you very much,
W.

I would redo the whole stock, root, recovery but with fresh downloads. What variant are you on?

I would really like that to be the last option before I jump into that whole process. Attached is a photo of my phone's information.
EDIT: I tried to unroot/re-root and the problems all persist.
Fixed
FIX: Flashed a new modem/hlos and it fixed the problem, thanks for the help!
Hi.. i have the same problem with the sound + he freezes and restarts. After hi restarts hi freeze after the Samsung logo when the at&t logo apears. If I shoot it down and start it he works for some time. Can anyone help me? :') and maybe give me a firmware with Romanian language? I have 4.4.2 now.
Can someone help me to flash a new modem to my s4? Maybe it will work fine after that
Hi guys, i have a GT-I9505 device, I've just upgrated my phone from Resurrection Lollipop v5.5.6 to v5.5.7 but i noticed that i'm not able to see webm videos anymore. I tried to re-flash the rom twice but the problem is still here. It's just my problem or is a rom issue? I also tried to set Awesome Player as default in Developer Settings but nothing...
I rooted my N9005 yesterday and have tried a number of roms, such as the roms taken from Note 5 / S6 Edge (Norma, DarkLord roms 5.0 and 5.1). I've also just tried a custom rom taken from official Note 3 Lollipop firmware.
All have the following issue : Netflix will not play any video - it keeps saying loading. BBC I player's video is choppy and out of sync. Youtubes 720p 60fps pauses frequently and 1080p 60fps freezes the video completely (not audio).
I've flashed back a KitKat custom rom and the video problems are gone.
Any suggestions on what might be wrong. I'm guessing it makes no difference but it's a Vodafone Australia handset that I'm using in the UK with EE (using the UK country code when installing rom).
Did you flash the Lollipop ROM freshly? I mean after a complete wipe?
I've used Team Win Recovery Project and each time completely wiped the phone each time. The Kitkat rom I used without problem was the Alliance rom. I am just about to try and flash a Lollipop 5.0 rom from Alliance - not sure if the same problem will be there.
[edit] Exactly the same issue using the Alliance 5.0 rom... choppy iPlayer not in sync, and continuously loading on Netflix.
I'll put it back to Alliance rom for 4.4 for now. Can't live without Netflix!
Other things I've tried:
Installing the 5.0/5.1 roms using CWM rather than TWRP doesn't solve the video issue. (CWM Aroma Installer fails to start, so been using TWRP on roms that use Aroma).
Neither does clearing caches through recovery.
Neither does enabling/disabling NU player/Awesome Player in developer settings.
On Alliance 5.0 rom I found liboemcrypto.so in system/vendor/lib, deleted it, cleared cache in recovery/rebooted, no difference.
On DarkLord N5 rom I deleted liboemcrypto.so.bak I think it was called, which I found in system/vendor/lib/ (which i think is the backup file).. liboemcrypto.so wasn't there to delete in the DarkLoard N5 rom and there was no file in system/lib like that. It didn't make a difference.
Could it have anything to do with it being an Australian handset, anything to do with the modem or some video kodex/player thing not getting updated/flashed properly. I'm just making stuff up now.
All the videos (youtube, hotstar, facebook etc) in my mobile are very laggy and looks like they are running in slow motion after last update (I think it was December security patch).
Is anyone facing same issue? any help?
thanks
You tried factory reset?
I had the same problem after flashing one of the "optimized" stock based roms from here. I had some other annoyances too, so I decided to start fresh and installed the offical stock version for my region from:
https://github.com/motoxplay/stock
Now the problems are gone.
I have stock android only.
Have not tried factory reset yet, will try that.
thanks
I flashed stock oreo roms on my g5 plus using fastboot and twrp methods. I also tried different versions of it (soak test 1 and october patch).
Each time I flashed the stock oreo rom, I encountered audio issues on music player apps like play music, spotify etc.
When a song played, I could hear a slight buzz as the song was playing, making it seem like the audio file has problems. Happens when I plug in headphones/use speakers.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling those apps and factory reset but nothing seems to fix this.
This does not happen with apps like youtube or the phone app, where the audio is absolutely normal. (with headphones/speakers/earpiece).
I have used custom nougat roms (stock and custom) and custom oreo roms like RR, PE and never faced such an issue with audio quality before.
Can anyone help me identify what the problem is?
please help if possible!
can anyone help?
guys can anybody help me out??

There's most likely no way to figure out why some apps sound normal for you and others don't. A clean flash is always a good advice, if that doesn't help it's most likely a hardware issue (of your device or your audio hardware). I flashed stock Oreo a few days ago, rooted with magisk and flashed viper4android and ainur sauron as modules. The sound is great using Poweramp, YouTube or any other source.
