Netflix

So the official netflix app is now out but only available on market for nexus s...I can't seem to find the apk but comments on engadget were saying the app worked great on their G2. Has anyone been able to find this? Is it legal to upload here since it is a free app?
Its on market now
Thanks

just tried this on a Bell Desire Z in Canada...where they said it's not working yet. Got the apk from the Epic 4G forum as well. I can log into the app, pick a movie, it seems to play, but no sound or video. Just a black screen. A few seconds in it pops me out to the menu.

That was the issue I had on the non official app a while back. May be because of your region

*sigh*
Just have to wait for Canada to catch up like usual
edit: just rebooted, I had sound for a second, progress FTW!

I have CM7 on my G2 and same issue can hear sound for like 5 - 10 seconds with a black screen then jumps me back to the main menu. My Boss has a stock G2 and it works awesome.... making me start to wonder....

hmm, I'm also running CM7. Anyone with a stock DZ in Canada care to give this a try?

Anybody on here tried htcclay's Super Stock rom?

Sorry but what does that have to do with netflix? Is that rom even for g2/dz?
I'm using the stock gb tmo leak. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not

I can confirm that it works great on the T-Mobile G2 with Virtuous Fusion ROM.

Yah, I was wondering if anybody's tried the Netflix app on his rom. And yes, it is. It's based off the G2 Gingerbread OTA, if I remember correctly. He hasn't/doesn't post on here.

Gotcha.

Works on G2 Stock but not on CM7
Okay, so here is what I have found out. On my G2 it works on my stock (rooted) rom, but doesn't on CM7.0.0. On CM7 I get about 5-10 seconds of sound with no picture then it exits.
So there must be something in the program that looks at some OS thing. One thing I noticed with CM7 vs STOCK is that market.android.com sees 2 different phones on my google account even though I have only 1 phone.
So the obvious question is can we fake CM7 to be reported as STOCK?

This is weird. I figured it was some incompatability issue with 2.3 but apparently HTC Evo users running CM7 are enjoying them some Netflix. What gives? This app has been confirmed not to work on CM7 for the G2 and I'm running a stock build based off the official OTA and all I get is sound and a white screen. Hopefully a fix comes around soon.....

Yeah I just flashed the new Virtuous Fusion with Sense 3.0 and netflix works on the G2 perfectly. This version is Android 2.3 and I believe the only 2.3 rom so far for the G2 confirmed to have netflix working besides stock 2.2. So it can't be that the netflix app is looking at the OS version. I would imagine the requirement to play netflix is something developers will easily be able to figure out and implement on roms from here on out.

Sounds to me it's AOSP gingerbread it has a problem with.

Just installed and tried it out on my G2 running CM7.0.2. Same problem as others, works great, I can start watching, get audio with no video, then drops me back at the main page after a few seconds.

Virtuous v1.0.1 also doesn't work
Just check the Virtuous v1.0.1 ROM on my G2 and it failed to work.

Official Netflix Support for the DInc2

If you haven't been enjoying Netflix with one of the modified apps, go get the official release. DInc2 is now supported and available in the Android Market!
Sent from my Incredible 2 using Tapatalk

I did the patch workaround to get Netflix working on my dINc2...should I delete the Netflix app I have installed and install the one in the market or will they both be the same?
Should I revert back to before I applied the patch?

I installed the official Netflix app from the Market and I still get the white screen.

No playback on Incredible 2... also, on the netflix website it does require "activation" for Netflix ready devices?
It says "Follow the instructions on your device to get an activation code.
Your computer and device must both be connected to the Internet to activate."

i too am getting the dreaded white screen

Afternoon Netflix Update
Nextflix posted another app update to the market this afternoon. (build now matches the release in the description.)
Updated the app opened it up, and....I am now watching Netflix on Stock 2.3 Dinc2.
We now have Netflix!

I uninstalled the hacked version and installed the official and video quality seems to have degraded significantly. Backed to blue Netflix for me.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App

Video quality seems fine to me. Official app doesn't have full video rotation though

Yeah, rotation would be nice, but not a deal-breaker. I'll keep an eye on the mod thread for that version. It's just nice to be able to start catching up on Archer while away from home

Just got around to installing the official app. No more white screen works great for me.

OK every time i try this I'm getting Installation error Package file was not signed correctly. Is this because I am rooted?? I got it to install just fine on my g-tab but the inc2 is giving me a hard time!! Any ideas?

I'm rooted on cm7 and it installs fine for me so I doubt its from rooting. Now, it might be dependent on the rom you're using.

[Q] NFL Mobile will not work.

I am running an older version of Newt's Incredible sensation today, and downloaded NFL mobile, It said I am not a verizon customer. Is there anything I can do so it will work? Here is a screenie of the problem.

i had the same problem today. are you rooted? i wiped my cache in recovery and it started working. also read somewhere that you needed to log into the my verizon app to get it to work, i never had to do that yet.

Does anyone know if its possible to use this app if your not a verizon costumer. I have the app working on my verizon phone, but i have a second metro phone that i would like to get this working on.. Is the live feed coming from verizon servers?

I read that with the newer versions, Verizon has locked it down even more and it's a big pain to get it working.

I used it Sunday during the game, and it ran perfect. I'm rooted, running MIUI 1.9.16 with Tiamat 1.1.2

Clearing Cache worked. Thanks

I just moved from omfgb to the newest cm7 nightlies #81 and now my nfl app isnt working. It works fine but as soon as I try to play video, the app shuts off. (goes back to home screen with no force close notice) I uninstalled and re-installed and cleared my cache in recovery.. still not working for me.

Yeah same thing for me...can use it except for streaming red zone and videos on newest cm7 nightly

well watching redzone for free only lasted a few weeks. you have to pay for vcast to watch red zone now? unistalling.

Where'd Handcent go?

I was reinstalling some apps on my rom today and I noticed handcent has went MIA from the market, any idea why?
I pulled the AOSP standard mms app over so I'm not in need of it just wondering were it went.

Its still in the market for me.

strange I don't see it anymore besides certain extras and I'm on the 3.3 market. luckily I never uninstalled it

Yeah, camera 360 ultimate is gone too...aka the app I paid three bucks for last year. Awesome.

From what I have seen, your device isn't registering properly with the Market. Do you have your cell radio turned off?
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

Yep, not showing up for me either with newest Market. I don't use it, but it shows 3 language packs for it, clearing app data/cache doesn't do anything to fix. Cell radio is on.
My $0.02.
Running Bugless Beast V. Gpa19 AOSP w/ stock kernel.

I'm using the 3.2 market but I'm pretty sure I had similar issues with 3.1.x
On top of that everytime I go to update Superuser on my Stock+ ROM I get a never ending loading screen.

Wasnt showing up for me either so I went to their site and downloaded the lastest apk and installed that way. That was a week ago and everything works fine so far. Its my default for mms and sms.

MLB at Bat '12

It's not available for the Galaxy Nexus right now, I'm guessing it's a 3.0+ compatibility issue. Has anyone tried getting the APK to work on their Nexus? To be clear, I'm not asking for the APK, I just want to know before I buy it on my vibrant to transfer over.

Would love to know this also. I sent an email to their help desk ([email protected]), but have not heard anything back yet.

I was able to install on my old ERIS and backup with titanium backup, then restore to my verizon nexus. It works. I tested with the LITE version; don't want to buy the full version if its not going to work.
Can't extract the LITE apk, by the way, it's set up like a paid app.

I am also interested in this. App is "incompatible" with my DroidX, but I was able to download it to a regular Droid. Not sure how.
Editing the build.prop file also did not help.

Oh and the Google wallet trick of opening in the phone browser then selecting market app doesn't work either. Just days item can't be found

Correction
Correction to my previous post: Editing the build.prop file DOES work. I successfully changed from a DroidX to a Droid3, and was able to download and install from the Market.

I was able to download the app from the market on my galaxy nexus no problems. Runs smooth. Go jays go
Using AOKP 27 rom if that makes a difference.

Ruh roh, might be incompatible with 4.0.4 roms then. Ho hum. Go yanks!

Thanks for the replies. I went ahead and bought the app on my rooted Samsung Vibrant, sent the apk to my Galaxy Nexus and it works perfectly. Well the app does at least, I'll have to wait for a game to see if the streaming audio and stuff works.

Works off amazon
I too could not see it in the market using liquid rom....it did show up in the amazon app store however...working fine now

It was updated today. It's compatible with the GNex now.

What are you running? I'm on stock 4.04 CDMA version and it still doesnt show for me.

I have been able to install with no problem on 4.02 and 4.03. I haven't tried 4.0.4 yet.
If you have a paid MLB.tv subscription you can access everything for free by installing the MLB lite version. After you log in, it unlocks the paid subscription version. It states that in the MLB At Bat 12 description.

Doesn't work on 404 but works on 403 confirmed

What did you use to rip the apk? Would like to put this on my tablet to.

Works fine on 4.0.4, it just does not show up in the market on 4.0.4.
I restored a 4.0.2. nandroid backup, installed the app, backed it up with Titanium back up, restored my 4.0.4. nandroid backup, and then installed it with Titanium back up.

Same here. Btw, in years past they update that app fairly regularly at the beginning of baseball season, so you'll want to be on a 403 ROM to get updates without having to nand every time.
