Spotify not loading properly

Spotify not loading properly


I used the template as the troubleshooting requests you should do. Here goes:

 

Description

The app "freezes" up on me, by not loading the content properly. Not even the in-app content such as settings. I can press all the buttons I want, but nothing happens, other than the app switching screens and highlighting the appropriate buttons. Primarily White Screen.

 

What are the steps you took to get to the error/issue?

  • Open Spotify on Android
  • Sign in (every time -.-) with facebook
  • Open a given playlist (every playlist does the same)
  • Click on a song
  • The song does not start playing
  • Try to go back
  • Some content might load (or not)
  • Try switching menus
  • Some content might load (or not)
  • etc.

 

What I expected to happen

The song starts playing and not incapacitating the app completely

  6. Pressed 'Starred' and tried to press the first song - nothing happens
  7. Pressed the 'back' button in the lower left corner
  8. Now 'Playlists' shows an almost completely white screen
  9. Pressed the 'menu'-button in the top left
  10. Pressed 'Settings' - almost completely white screen
  11. Pressed the 'menu'-button again, and now pressed the 'What's New' button. White screen again

Hi. I thought this problem was fixed in the latest release. Could you go to android/settings/apps /all/spotify and force stop (if not greyed out), clear data and clear cache. Then redownload from google play and see if it works any better. Let me know how it works out please.

Just before posting the first post, i did that, and even uninstalled the app, deleted any remaining data through USB and reinstalled it. The problem remained though

my spotify freezzes and no songs cannot play my music is in a frozen possion can you please check out the problem thank you.
