Facebook App is only playing videos in SD mode even after clicking the HD button - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there, I'm currently using a OnePlus2 with Android version 5.1.1 and OxygenOS version 2.2.1.
The problem I'm facing is that my facebook app is not displaying videos in HD mode even after I click on the HD button provided in the player. I remember correctly that this was not the case around 2 months back and whenever I hit the HD button the video would pause, change its resolution and then continue playing. I also cannot recall if I've made any changes or upgrades to my ROM as my phone is rooted and the last update I received was OTA around a month and a half back.
Just to to be clear, I like my multimedia in HD as I'm quite a fanatic of picture quality and sound
This problem was annoying me for quite sometime now but I kept on ignoring it as videos being played on other apps like twitter, youtube or even from my phone memory were working just fine and displayed in full HD quality. I thought maybe the videos I'm playing on Facebook were uploaded low res until yesterday when I saw the same video on my wife's phone which played in HD.
I've been searching for a solution for 5 days now and seems like google doesn't even have an answer to it or may be I'm the first with such a problem. Anyways, desperately looking forward to a response.
Thanks!

Facing Same problem in my Le 1s
I am also facing same problem in my LeECO le 1s mobile, tried multiple fixes but didn't work. Also, Its not easily available on online forums as a known issue. I tried cleaning everything related to the fb app from the storage which seemed to work temporarily but it started again. let me know if you come across any permanent working solution.

The offical facebook app is sh*t.
It uses alot of battery, ram and cpu.
Use an alternative app like: Folio, Swipe for Facebook or Facebook Lite.

[Q] Galaxy tab Camera help

I just got my tab and when ever i try to use the camera i cant see what i'm shooting.... it only displays the last picture i shot but when press the shutter button it shots fine and the display change to the thing i shot...
Video mode is the same.
I tried clear data for the Camera app and force close it but its the same...
can any one help?
btw i searched the forums but i didn't find anything sorry if there is a thread about this already
i also hv this problem also... please help us..
~i thought it is bcoz of the spare part apps. then i try to set it default. but it still same..
BUMP. Help us please
I have the same problem.
As a workaround, if you slide the camera/video slider, the Tab switches back to the camera setting, and the viewfinder is displayed.
I have had some other problems with my tab, like crashing apps all the time, I made a hardreset and now everything is fine. You may test it and report here.
i had the same problem with the camera app. sliding the camera/video slider doesn't help.
so i reboot the tab & its working fine now.

Yup, i know, after reboot, the problem gone.So, if like that, everytime i face the problem, i hv to reboot. How can like that..
I am facing this issue too, any fix?
Damn now I'm in the boat, but I think I know why this happens, my camera doesnt show black screen or something, it shows the last viewed youtube video and if I switch to video cam, two youtube vids are shown.
So may its caused by the new youtube app?
So, all hv this problem by using the new youtube app?
How to revert back to previous version of youtube? Where can get the installer?
I also have the problem its not cuz of youtube app, it happens with videos that you watch any video from any app.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i have the exact same problem..viewfinder gets stuck on the last frame of the last viewed video, and only a restart can fix it. Any news on a proper solution for this? I hate restarting the phone...
cam problem
Hello devs plz helps all with tis fix of viewfinder we are waiting for it, every time we use video call, u tube, play game, this freezes the view finder, looking forward to fix from you ppl, no hopes from samsung as usual
thankx in advance
I had the problem on the camera of SGT as well 3 months back. However, I sent in my SGT for an upgrade of firmware due to other reasons (not because of the camera issue). And the problem has gone forever.
When I encountered this problem back then, I tried rebooting, clearing of memory (RAM), it goes off for a while, but it came right back, especially when you view YouTube. It is quite annoying.
So, my advice to you guys is to send it to Samsung for a firmware upgrade, it just takes less than an hour. By the way, my SGT is stock ROM.

new note 4 greenish video problem

my aunt just got a new note 4 a couple hours ago and everything works and looks fine except when you play a Facebook video, you tube or even a video that your record playback is blotchy with a couple lines that move around the video with a greenish tint and the videos are just gross to watch, pictures and everything on the phone is just fine. videos are the only problem, does anyone know what this is and how i can maybe fix it, thanks

I've not heard of this issue before but perhaps a software update will help?
Has it been updated to the latest Lollipop ROM available for the device and region?
Considering that photos appear to be free of the glitch I'd assume it's a software issue.
Try an OTA software update and if not then flash a stock ROM via ODIN?
Should fix it.
Hope this helps.
Tried a software update but didn't fix the issue

Phone freeze/crash

So I was watching a video on YouTube today (an s7 edge teardown video ironically) when all the sudden the picture froze and the phone started making a loud buzzing noise and was unresponsive to touch. I held the power down and the phone reset. Upon rebooting the phone was majorly lagging and struggled to catch up with any input commands. It finally smoothed itself out and seems fully recovered from the freeze up/crash now but my question is has anyone else experienced or heared of this on this device or any ideas as to what may have caused it?
Just happened to me watching a video on Facebook anyone have any answers yet s7 edge 32gb gold
I noticed something whaky when watching YouTube videos but I had read it had to do with the 1440p resolution... So I changed it to 1080p and it's been fine since... Maybe the app needs an update.
I'm on Verizon with an S7, but fwiw, mine just crashed as I was watching *cough*...a certain type of video... in chrome incognito.
Anyway, I tried everything, but only managed to get a few sounds and vibrations out of the device for 5 minutes. Then the camera flashlight turned and stayed on for about 10 minutes, but the sounds and all other responsiveness ceased. Finally about 15 minutes later, some button mashing somehow got me into maintenance boot mode, where I went into safe mode and rebooted from there. Everything seems to be normal again though. Incredibly strange. I've only had it for 3 days and not even changed much from stock yet.

The same exact thing happened to me with buzzing sound while watching YouTube. But mine automatically restarted. I'm thinking of returning this phone
I exprienced this problem today while watching youtube. The phone freezed and I had to reset it. Does anyone know what might have cause this?+

Same thing happened to me while watching YouTube as well on my s7 edge. I'm concerned.
I had the same problem. I cleared the cache and it's working fine now.
Had the same problem watching a YouTube video days ago. Hasn't happened since thankfully.
Did you guys disable a bunch of apps in the system?
were any of you using the phone in a case. I noticed that I was listening to streaming radio ( on lte) and playing candy crush and twice the phone crashed and rebooted. I noticed the phone was very hot. I do have a case and I havent tried it without the case to see if I could replicate the issue.
I have been having random freeze and reboots a least 3-4 times a day. Hoping a software update fixes it
This also happend to me only while watching youtube thankfully I was at home and not out in public nowhere bc the loud sound was so loud it was kinda scary. This has happend to me twice so far and idk if it has anything to do with it but I was using a custom theme both times. And using stock theme it has never happend.
Have ANY of you guys tried to wipe your cache from recovery settings? In having horrid battery life so I did this and it took away some lag I was having. Hopefully makes my battery life better

my phone completely crashed during the new update! Tmobile is sending me a new phone
Me too when I was watching youtube
At launch my phone was working fine. Up until the last update (not the latest July 8th one) and after my phone would crash constantly. It only crashed once during a YouTube video. But crashes in any another things I'm doing.
The sound cuts out too, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the wwe supercard game I play or not 99% happens when I'm playing that game. But it has happened in other apps. The keyboard stops making sounds, YouTube or Facebook video wouldn't play audio. Sometimes it comes back, sometimes I gotta reboot it.
I just downloaded and installed the latest July 8th update today, and so far no issues. But I'll report back if any things fixed or not.
I had the same problem right after i got mine.. not a good video but was it like this? They replaced mine new one doesn't do it....
on youtube I posted a video of mine...samsung S7 edge youtube landscape video problem...( I cant post a link but you can search for it)
Wow. I thought I was the only one. Was watching a Facebook video. And made a loud hissing sound. I was scared

Audio out-of-sync problem & restart

Hi everyone!
I've been using my Moto G4 Plus since a month and a half (In México, a Store sold it to me a couple of weeks before the actual announcement haha). Well, since I got the phone I've noticed some serious Audio out of sync in Youtube, Netflix and even Google Photos! I don't know if it's an actual SW issue or just something to do with the HW. I also noticed, after a long period of time using Spotify or Play Music, it randomly "beeps" and then reboot. I can't tell if those issues are related but as it seems to be a Playback issue (Audio in both cases) I created this thread.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I've tried rebooting the phone and the audio issue doesn't go away, but sometimes it doesn't happens! Got only WhatsApp & Spotify, so no FB or any Wakelock problem app can be the actual problem.
Ya ....i m also having same problem
The same is happening to me. I posted it here: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/v3_1/forumtopicpage/board-id/MotoG4thGen/thread-id/7842

LG V20 plays sound but shows no videos?

For the past couple of days now, whenever I try to play a video, I hear the audio fine, but don't see any video, just a black screen. At first I thought it was trouble with my YouTube app since that's basically where I only watch videos and read on several forums that the issue was caused by having the official twitter app (which is weird since I don't have twitter). I also tried restarting my phone, uninstalling/reinstalling youtube, installing older versions of youtube, all of which never worked.
So I decided to swallow my pride and just download a fake youtube alternative. To my surprise, the videos still show a black screen and only play audio. This had me thinking, so I tried to play a video in my camera roll I downloaded... Same problem, however, if I play a video I recorded myself on the phone it works... The even weirer part is though, that if I play a video through youtube via the Chrome browser it works (despite it looking like 140p and horrible audio) but it works! I've also tried smart cleaning, deleting cache and data but to no avail.
Is there a problem with my phones flash player, or whatever extension it uses? I know Chrome uses its own built in player which could explain why it sorks in Chrome but not anywhere else.
This all seemed to happen randomly, I didnt do anything. Games and other media including music still seem to work fine. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Also I am rooted on 12A and have been for the past 6 months.
I'm also having the same issue with my vs995 running on rooted 12A
