Hey!
I tried to watch some VR Videos with my Honor 7x. 360° on YT is fine, but as soon as I enter VR mode by clicking on the cardboard button I can't look around anymore or it just works veeeeery slow, like I am turning my head in super slow motion but I don't. Also tried different apps for viewing VR content, it's all the same. Anybody with the same experiences and a solution for this problem?
Thank you

I too have the same problem YouTube VR videos run smoothly but viewing 360 degree photos in Google Photos using VR mode doesn't work well, it almost doesn't move when I move my device. It is most probably a problem with the Gyroscope as it was disabled before but was enabled after a software update.

experiencing this since Nougat... hoped that the Oreo update fixes this problem but nothing changed. So you think its a software issue?
Does nobody have a solution for this? The gyroscope for VR usage was the thing that made be choose the Honor 7x over the Huawei Mate 10 Lite, so I really would like to get it to work
I have this problem too, gyro is crazy .. slow or not moving at all, unusable for vr things..
Any solutions?
Did anyone find a solution to this because i just bought my phone and i NEED the gyro to complete a project i was working on for a long time.
Any updates from anyone?
The gyroscope in my honor 7x is tooo slow when compared to other phones....i use gyroscope while playing pubg.... does any 1 know how to make it fast....?

Hi guys, I recently bought a galaxy tab s 10.5 and I'm having issues with video playback in the native YouTube app. Basically every 5-10 seconds, I would get a micro stutter, as if the video is slightly jittery. It's definetely not buffering as the video has loaded well ahead already too.
I am using the samsung stock OS so 4.4.2 and I have installed all the latest official updates for both the OS and the Youtube app.
I have also tried a factory reset of the machine, clearing the cache and updates for the Youtube app and reinstalling. I've also tried forced GPU rendering and turning off hardware overlays in developer mode
Does this indicate there's an issue with my hardware ? It does not happen when i stream videos from my PC over wifi or any locally downloaded videos. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hmmm, never had this problem with mine when it was on stock. I usually had this problem when I underclocked my cpus and all that or when I am using to many appps.
The only thing I can suggest is use another app (viral popup https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Mata.YTplayer ) or take it back to be safe.

Thanks, yep the youtube videos would stutter even when i freshly restarted the tablet so nothing else really is running in the background. I have tried the viral popup app except it seems to play at a really low quality setting, ,ie 1080p is not available ?
Is there anything I can test to see if its a possible hardware issue ? I ran the Antutu benchmark and got 37k which seems in line for what's expect from this tablet. Does this help rule anything out ? Thanks.
Check processes, there's probably something in the background.

I dont think so. When you play games does it lag too? Ex real racing 3 etc? Because if it cant play youtube without the micro lag, that may affect other apps. I dont get any lag while I was on stock.
If any other apps lag while playing (not on loading screens) then it may be an issue. I never had any micro lag on mine so it may vary on how you see it. Of course we have custom roms that are way smoother (CM12) but I am unsure if your issue is hardware related or the way you see it. Hope this helps!
I got youtube stuttering too for months on my TabS ST800, I tried every tricks in dev options, nothing ever changed .
But one day i tried the CARDBOARD view in the YouTube app options and then return to normal 2D view.... motion became butter smooth up to 1440p60, for any video! If closing youtube app and restarting it, it is stuttering again, until opening again the cardboard view.
Here is a test video I used to validate stutter-free playback :

Good luck.

You, sir, are awesome!!! I had this problem for the last couple of months on my Tab Pro 10.1, tried everything to eliminate it. Going back to Stock or GraveD rom was slightly better but not really smooth either. I was beginning to lose my sanity switching back and forth between CM11, CM12.1 and stock-rom, trying different developer-options but was not completely satisfied in the end. This cardboard-step is a temporary fix i can definitely live with. But I'm surprised that not many people seem to be effected by this stuttering or they simply don't mind at all. Hope that google is going to fix this shortcoming in the near future but meanwhile...Thanks a ton mister :good:!

I was so happy too I spent a night watching again many videos I love ! I'm glad I could share that little joy !
To answer your question, it is a shame that people are suffering from the belief that "online" videos on computer, tablets or phone *must* somewhat stutter. Well ... even trans-galactic communications in Star Wars/Trek and other sci-fi movies are depicted with stutter and even analog (!) video sync and lines issues (in 2150!!). Stutter and other digital disorders have been imprinted in the modern culture because not much effort was given to understand (and implement) that we human are analog creatures requiring a natural constant flow of sound and light, not a "best effort" variable low frame sample rate due to "unavoidable" system interrupts between storage, cpu, gpu and screen. Remarkably, Apple hardware/software was always close to perfection due to their close collaboration with the computer graphics industry for tv and movies..
It is indeed so much enjoyable when colors, contrast, motion of a clean picture hit the brain which then do not have to interpolate, filter dynamically and overcome an unpleasant stressfull and therefore tiring "motion picture"
So far only Sony with its X1 graphical processor in TVs is IMO able to achieve a minimum of digital artefacts while interpolating and displaying moving pictures. HD was a attempt to increase resolution (but we lost many qualities that the oldest of us enjoyed with CRT tubes). UHD must bring "better pixels" back with constant higher frame rate, higher pixel resolution and higher color resolution and dynamic range.
I hope to say bye bye soon to "flicks" = flickering judderish stuttering color-ish moving pictures.

Hey folks,
has anyone of you found out how to use the OP3 with Google Cardboard apps, YouTube 360° Videos or other VR apps?
The moment i enter a VR mode in any of the apps or YouTube 360°, the OP3 doesn't react to any movements (which is the sense of VR) any more. So looking around isn't working, mostly the apps even don't start and are stuck one the initial screen. In YouTube 360° videos i can only look straightforward, a look left or right is impossible.
I'm on the latest stock OTA 3.2.0 version of OxygenOS. Nothing else changed, no root or other modifications.
Regards,
Mika
Oookay, this was a software issue. I just restarted the OP3 once, and everything is fine and working like expected. God knows why ...
I want to ask you for help with vr games issue. Now I tried download and play some vr games, if is game launched game works about 1 sec, after that is issue with rotation of screen. Rotation to left/right works fine, but if the phone turns up, the screen is turned down ( upside down issue). Here is video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30WeGJx2g4E&feature=em-upload_owner . I use LeTV x800 with cyanogenmod 12.1 BetaHydriV42 dated 2016 09 21. The problem described I have with playing all vr games. I tried to reflash to new stock ROM without malware with same result. Here is also video with tests of gyro and accelerometer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1Exo7d9zK4&feature=em-upload_owner . Gyro test shows this issue, like is smartphone on screen. My girlfriend has same mobile, all vr games work perfectly. She has same cyanogenmod rom like me. In first video link you can see also like is screen drift back to the center position, after rotation.
I tried to play with VR glasses bobovr z4, I had the same problem
Thank you for reply
Hi. i just purchased a note 8 pro, for the most part satisfied, however i noticed something when i record 4k videos using the stock camera app. basically the phone cant keep up with the fast camera movements. im not sure if there is a term for this problem, but you can see it in the video below, when i move the phone, the change in the display cannot keep up with the movement. i have to wait for the camera to update and its annoying.. is there a way to fix this, or is it a hardware limitation?

Me too have the same issue. Haven't find any solution yet
Can you share the link YouTube you have it? So I can compare with a different device.
Hello, I have a xiaomi poco f3 and experienced something similar but worse (youtube videos showing weird pixels and colors or noise like display at parts of the video, like a broken tv signal). I tried moving from miui 14 to a custom pixel OS but it did not solve the issue. Another thing I experienced is that 240p and below it was working flawlessly, anything above and I'd get the glitches. Likewise, other platforms like twitch.tv worked perfectly. Trying revanced youtube, root version or not, did not work for me. I pinpointed the problem to the vp9 codec, which is used by youtube videos when setting resolution above 240p. The following things worked for me:
a) Whats your refresh rate? Try setting it at 120hz at all times (other options like setting it automatically or per app won't do, for my pixelOS, it was "force peak refresh rate" in Display settings). This solution worked for me globally, including the youtube app, but increases battery consumption.
b) Browser only solution, that works without forcing max refresh rate at all times (and thus saving battery): use the enhanced-h264ify extension, available for android only for kiwi browser, afaik. There, in the addon options, block vp8, vp9 and av1 (iirc they all came pre checked)
