  • Maybe all these problems are related to your YouTube app, so do not hesitate to clear its cache and data. You know that the main reason why cached data exists is to make loading time faster. So, if the device already has the layout of the website saved in the form of cached data, it will not have to load that same data once again. In such a case, even if the cached data on your device can be helpful for the websites you visit regularly, over a period of time, it can get corrupt:
  1. Go to the Apps icon;
  2. Find and tap on Settings;
  3. Touch Applications and then Application manager;
  4. Swipe to ALL tab;
  5. Find and touch YouTube;
  6. Hit the Storage option;
  7. Tap Clear cache;
  8. You must also choose Clear data, Delete.
  • If the problem remains after doing so, try see if there are updates for Facebook that might cause such errors;
  • If there are none, then it’s time to hard reset your device via this detailed procedure: How to Hard Reset the Samsung Galaxy S7.
