Hello,
I think I found a strange bug on my nexus 5. I just recently installed the xposed framework and now inside the youtube app I can not use the 1080p option anymore. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution to this?
Thank you very much!
Occasionally it even works but only for one video and the next video then only has the 720p mode option.
(All the videos that I have tested are HD videos that I know and which do normally have a 1080p option)
I have the lg g3 (at&t) i recently updated my youtube app to the latest 5.14.5 update and the highest quality i can watch videos is stuck at 1080p , even while watching a 4k video !!!! Can anyone please help with this issue ??

Sign out of YouTube. Clear YouTube cache in settings-apps. Sign in to YouTube. Load a 4k video. How is your DL speed on wifi? 4G speed?

hello saba19993 your problem can not be fixed like this could you briefly write some details like your device's: brand , screen type , model , etc...
after that your problem could be fixed easily.

Give this a try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
PS: This is a modded apk file of an older version of the YouTube app. And I cannot guarantee if it will work or not.
Was anyone of you successful to get Netflix running in 1080p?
I received my OP6 today. As I wasn't offered Netflix in Play Store, I downloaded the apk directly from Netflix and installed it. Netflix is working, but I don't seem to get 1080p running though my network connection is fine (28 MBit/s).

I downloaded Netflix from Google play just fine, how did you check what resolution is playing?
I just checked it by watching, and it is very "pixely", hence for sure no 1080p. Does an unlocked bootloader matter? Root is not installed yet.
Edit: Ok, I guess I found the problem. My OP6 isn't passing safety net (CTS profile match fail). Will have to install Magisk.
Unlocked bootloader = no netflix in play store. At least for me. Quality seems pretty good but no idea how to display the resolution used.
Netflix was in play store for me [emoji16]

I found out now that unlocking the bootloader turns Widevine from L1 to L3. Relocking the bootloader doesn't bring back L1.
But with Magisk installed I pass SafetyNet now and Netflix seems to have a high resolution.
Is there any way to find out the actual resolution of a Netflix stream?
I had to download the apk directly as it did not show up in the Play Store for me. I can't tell what the resolution is, but it looks sharp enough.
But apparently a lot of people have looked into this and the consensus seems to be that unlocking the bootloader will block HD content.
I don't get HD streaming on Netflix even though I pass the SafetyNet test.
Unfortunate.
I always find Netflix shows just seem very dark on the 6 as if the brightness is turned down. Really difficult to see stuff sometimes and seems like everything is filmed at night.

Have you tried turning the brightness up?

Yes makes little difference, still not really watchable. This is watching over 4g not that it should really make any difference.
Netflix is playing in 1080p on my OP6 - looks crisp and even crispier with brightness all the way up. Running on wifi and using Planet Earth to test.

Same here. With everything hidden in Magisk I am definitely getting HD in Netflix and Prime Video. No blurriness or pixelation at all.

This is exciting. Netflix/Amazon streaming is the only reason I haven't rooted yet. Any idea as to how this is possible when the 5 and 5T weren't able to get HD streaming?
Could any other rooted users check their streaming quality?

No idea, sorry. It's possible there's been some change in how the OP6 handles DRM.

Yes, just search for "Test Patterns" and play one of the videos, it will show you the current resolution (use original video size, if it's zoomed to fit the screen you can't see the resolution).
Strangly, my OP6 just gets HD (1280x720) but not Full HD (1920x1080).

Is your bootloader locked or unlocked? Netflix streaming quality can be selected in account settings at www.netflix.com/YourAccount -> Playback settings.
Edit: I'm running a bootloader-locked OP6, and the "Test Patterns" videos always shows 1280x720 no matter what my playback settings are set to.
