Not able to stream content while rooted. - General Questions and Answers

My Razr M has been rooted for several months now, and I've noticed since being rooted two services no longer work like they should. The watch espn app no longer loads anything I try to watch, and hulu+ now has a problem loading the adds, which consequently stops all playback. Also, the hulu+ app on other devices(Roku, PS3, tablet) that are connected to the Razr M hotspot act the same way.
From what I can tell it's only these two apps that don't like the root... Is anyone else experiencing these playback problems? and is there a way to fix it?

[Q] Droid Razr MAXX HD Wifi issues!!

I have been messing around with two separate motherboards and back panels with the new 4.4.2 update. One won't allow for the update to install (I assume it has to do with a certain mod I don't know much about on it) and the other one installed it perfectly fine but now doesn't properly connect to wifi when I try and connect to a network. I can search on chrome but I can't sync my Google account or use services like Google Now. This error is really bothering me because I can't even install apps on the phone and I can't find anyone else with this problem online. Is anyone experiencing a similar problem and does anyone have a possible solution?

Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Hostar not working on Vivo S1

H,
A friend is facing a problem with her Vivo S1. She recently updated her phone, which now shows as having Funtouch OS 9.2. The problem is, after the update, whenever she tries to play a video in full screen in ether of the three apps, netflix, prime video or hotstar, it just shows a black screen but the audio can be heard. The apps were working fully before the update. After looking around on the internet, i came across a few possible reasons, one being an issue with the full screen settings of apps, but when she goes to the full screen settings, there are no apps to modify. Another issue could be DRM if some other apps are allowed to draw over then these apps might not work, is that possible, if so, can anyone please give a solution for this particular OS, because i could not find that anywhere.
Did you get a solution please let know I am also getting same issue

No problem with Netflix on my phone.
Delete data and cache and try again.
I'm facing the same issue. Haven't found what's causing it or any workaround to avoid restarting the phone. Deleting data & cache haven't helped. Even reinstalled the app.
I have the same issue not only with Netflix but also with Disney Plus. I think something is messed up with how the phone manages DRM.
I have the exact same issue, and it concerns Netflix, Disney+ and HBO.
same problem here also with p.v and d+, only restart fix the problem temporarily, i noticed also that the cromecast works , so its a minor problem for me because rarely i watch netflix on phone, i hope sony fix this with the next update, its absurde that the app come preinstalled in the phone and works bad ?
Just found the same issue on the first week I was using this phone on early October. I told with the Sony CS and reported this bug to them but they didn't think it's a bug as they told me not so many users reported to them. They won't try to fix this problem....
I had this with the old firmware, with the security patches of August. With the latest firmware, patches of November, I don't have it.
Same annoying problem here with Netflix and Prime Video, even after the firmware update including December patch.
Same problem here. I wasn't even aware of it until reading this thread as I always use a Chromecast.
Same problem here. First time Netflix after restart no problems. After having used the phone for a while and going back to Netflix, videos refuse to start. Red circle keeps spinning, eventually resulting in Netflix error 5.7.
Only a phone restart will fix this. Very annoying.
Any solutions?
I'm having this issue with Netflix as well. Just got the phone, it's on the latest software version. I haven't tried Prime video yet. Not a huge deal, since I only watch videos on my phone when I travel, and well...yeah, that won't be happening for a while. Agree it needs to be fixed.
Dear all - so I am not alone with this problem. (I didn't receive any updates on that threat). Especially, as it is a preinstalled app, Sony should get this work. How can we contact them?

It really is pretty poor having a pre instilled app not working properly.
It looks like I no longer have the issue with Prime, only with Netflix. So it could be an issue with the app itself. Has anyone tried to contact Netlfix support?
For me this is solved since my Xperia 5ii was updated to Android 11.
For me, too, with the update, it is gone!
