YouTube keeps crashing on my tablet. - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

On my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4, when I am watching a YouTube video, the app starts lagging and getting really slow, and then the screen turns black. My whole tablet becomes laggy, and then the YouTube app crashes. It doesn't even say "Unfortunately, YouTube has stopped". It just closes and loads up my home screen. One time when this happened, the app was just stuck on the black screen, and it didn't even close. My whole tablet was frozen. Eventually it said "YouTube is not responding. Do you want to close it?", and I tried clicking yes, but the button didn't even change color. Eventually, it said " System process is not responding. Do you want to close it?", which just shows how bad this problem is. When I pressed and held the power button it didn't even bring up the menu that lets you shut down you device. I eventually had to just force restart my tablet by pressing and holding the power button for 8 seconds. This awful glitch mainly happens when I am using double tap to seek, which is a very useful feature, but I want to disable it because it causes this error. Sometimes it happens when I am not even using double tap to seek. This is really annoying and frustrating since I watch YouTube videos on my tablet a lot. I need a solution to this. If anyone could provide me with a working one that would be great.

Is there any difference if it's charging or not?

Change your adreno driver !

very annoying feature that i wish to turn off

when i'm in a text message with the keyboard closed and i decide to reply to the message and open the keyboard, the message screen rotates and the dial screen appears. no matter what i do this happens. is there a fix 4 this?
never happened on mine before.
The screen rotation is intentional. Perhaps you're accidentally hitting the "call" button when you extend the keyboard? I tend to hit the volume control myself - that, or I end up pressing the screen somewhere.
Seems to work
shasarak i think your advice worked. I found a new way to open and close plus i reset. Now i just need to find a solution to the spontaneous and occasional shut down.
Realized that the shut down happens when i close the screen over the keyboard to hard. another little surprise.

screen issues, specifically back button

i've also experienced some of the other screen issues that others have when the phone is charging, but i have noticed something more specific: w/o any other apps in the multi-task queue, i press vol-up to press play on my current song, and when the song comes on, my back button stops workin. actually all of the soft buttons do this, but after 10 or so seconds, home and search button come back, but back button still unresponsive. Sometimes happens when I have multiple apps going on as well. Kind of an annoyance.
i'm considering going back to the store to check my options, but (even though i don't think i'm qualified to make this distinction) it may be a software issue that may be updated with the connectivity issue on the 16th?

I can confirm this. It happened to me just today. I was using the "Sleep" app made by a buddy of mine. I played a sound from the app and then I hit the back button. It took me into the multitasking view. I literally could not exit the app unless I hit the home button. Afterwards, my back button stopped working but the home and search was still functional.
I let the phone sit for a while and everything started working again. I don't know if this will be addressed in the 16th update but I really hope so.
I also heard that a battery fix is coming as well.

Weird keyboard glitch?

I was just on twitter and doing my daily stuff such as browsing the inter net, youtube, in stage am and notice the keyboard pops up and becomes unresponsive... I can still press the home button and interact with things but the keyboard just sits there. After pressing the sleep/wake button it solves the problem but now the screen is unresponsive and takes a few seconds to get back to normal.... this happens frequently and would like to know what the problem... any thoughts, or suggestions on what I can do? Maybe flash official ROM?

"Android Wear has Stopped"

After charging my Moto 360 today, it is stuck on a white screen displaying "Android Wear has Stopped" and an OK button. Clicking the OK button refreshes the screen, then displays the same message. I tried holding power to reboot the watch several times, but it defaults back to this white screen immediately upon rebooting.
Any suggestions?

Edit: FIXED
Very weird. I left it on the charger, and started trying to cycle the power (holding the power button down until it restarted). After the 4th time of cycling the power, it let me in to the system menu, and I was able to "reset" the device. Fixed, but still no idea what caused it.
turn off 360
uninstall wear and moto connect
reboot phone, reinstall apps
turn on 360, and connect it
No luck. Tried the above., then tried rebooting the watch with the phone turned off. Nothing seems to work.
The watch literally boots directly into this error screen immediately after showing the Android Wear splash screen.
Just happened to me. I also rebooted a few times using the side button then it would let me into the menu and I could do a reset. Weird.

Turning screen off while in messages app causes phone call

So, I'm habitual about turning off my screen. I've noticed that occasionally if I leave the screen on the native messages app, and hit the power button to turn off the screen, it will sometimes trigger a phone call. The only way I can catch it in time is when I feel the phone vibrate.
Has anyone else have this problem? It's driving me a little crazy, because I can't seem to replicate it, it just happens spontaneously.
Not in the few times I tried it. I honestly don't like any of the Samsung built-ins so I only tried the message app for a few days. Like you I do usually hit the power button by habit mostly, but never noticed that.
