HD Netflix App - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

****4.0.3 users - it is not currently working on most 4.0.3 builds. I will look into it****
I take 0 credit for this file, but I have rehosted and used it myself. Here is the 1080P Version of the Netflix app.
*im sorry about the first file. Mediafire seems to have botched the original file on upload. Ive triple checked the MD5. Confirmed working on a LTE Nexus on 4.0.2
NEW FILE!

MD5 4CD35DA0E4D392538462BDC390544561
Dont be Tricked!
The app does NOT go full screen like the market version of the Netflix app, but the quality is 10x better. For a test I watched both Tron and Toy Story 3 for 5 minutes each on both apps to allow enough time to buffer. There is no graininess on the HD app and it just pops more. Test both out and see the difference!
* I believe this is from the RAZR but dont quote me on that
I did some HD and Non-HD testing. Now Im running a LTE Nexus on 4.0.2 w/Revolutionary 2.1.0. Ive seen issues with the GSM Nexus not being able to install, but it works perfect on mine. No issues, which is weird. But heres some HD and Non HD photos for comparison:
HD above NON HD below

Not to troll, but why would you want a 1080p source on a 720p screen?

I would want a 720p stream
the current one is just okay resolution wise, and has the buttons active instead of going full screen...
I don't understand why there are so many versions of the app... And why us international customers need to download the app from random links in forums. Instead of blocking in market they should (if they have to) block only in app, and people wouldn't risk malicious apps that steal login details. This only creates trouble for themselves.
Offtopic kind of, but since market enabler isn't working anymore (right?) how do people get apps from other regions without relying on someone to upload to the forum? Is there a trick?

I would think it is better to downscale 1080p to 720p than upscale 480p to 720p.

Mine won't even start up. Screen goes black for a split second, then goes away.

Perhaps it has something to do with the Verizon service.
If someone could take it apart, I'm sure they'd remove the Razr specific resolution and Verizon requirements. Thus make it work for all phones on all networks.
Perhaps post this in the General "Android Development" thread with a request to look at it.

Just like was mentioned, you get better quality when running a 1080p stream and running it on 720 then you do from 480 to 720. I don't know if it bothers everyone but the graininess killed my Netflix experience on the nexus. I'm happy its working for me. But is anyone on a GSM running revolutionary rom? I'm also on 4.0.2

I don't think Netflix does 1080p streams... HD by definition is 720p. So perhaps it is just displaying the movie in it's native form.
Although really, having a HD 4" screen with 300+ DPI, I'm surprised if the 480p movie doesn't look steller.

Posted up and new file. I believe the File got corrupted on the upload. Ive triple checked the MD5 this time. Try it out and let me know!!!

AMAZING
This is amazing... this is definitely ATLEAST 720P PURE. I can see so much difference. I gank movies all the time... and watch NetFlix all the time. This is on par with my media center... wow... tytytyty
Thank you so much

Its only seems to want to stream at 720p, it definitely is not streaming at 1080p and i'm verifying that by looking at my hdtv which shows some minor pixelation (enough to tell me that it's trying to upscale), but definitely an improvement over the stock app

How about 1200 x 720 resolution on your Epic 4G Touch? [Video]

I posted a video showing how to increase display resolution on Galaxy S II. I'm running at 1200 x 720 and looks great. I did it on my T-mobile SGSII, but I would think that it would work the same way on the Epic 4G Touch.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPPuEbXwOF4
There are a issues with a few stock apps, so make sure to watch the whole thing if you can, as I demonstrate everything I've run into so far.
p.s. For rooted phones only and even though process is ultra simple, don't hold me responsible if you mess up your phone

Super cool, however the only reason I'd do this is for my phone to be even super sexy-er. However, due to the broken apps/stock dialer looking odd + applications drawer comes out very odd, this just makes my phone feel crappy.
Thanks for the great find though, still looking for one that does everything right.

Fair enough, although issues are very minor and most people I know don't use stock launcher and even get rid of touchwiz entirely..
Lcd resolution is cool but its not worth it for me because of the stock apps that look tiny. It would be cool if someone made a rom that scaled the stock apps when using lcd resolution.
Someone needs to create a ROM with TouchWiz 720p from the Galaxy Note and include LCD Resolution.
That would be amazing.
160 dpi FTW!
So far I'm liking it. The email app is a little funky. Changing font size helped but the email app's homepage is still funky. Anyone know where to fix font size in that APK? I could not find it.
I'm using the 1200x720 with Launcherpro. Some widget placement and sizing is a little weird, seen that before on other phones when you play with density. For the most part, works great.

My friend, this video is clearly not for you. I'm not teaching how to do it, I'm showing what it looks like and why you might want to do it and why not. This video is also for people who haven't bought the SGS2 yet and are on the fence because 800x480 on a 4.5" display for many isn't good enough. Also for those who haven't rooted yet and can't try it for themselves. I apologize if I've wasted your time.

Will running at a lower dpi than 720p fix some of the alignment issues?
Is everything easily reversible?
[email protected] spongebob.... good finding.. thanks for the video. I gotta try it out.
tried it, seems to work. tho i'm thinking it just scales down 1200x720 down to LCD's stock 800x480 for displaying on phone's LCD, effectively missing the whole point of 720p. of course, that's a hardware limitation so we can't get around that
the real trick comes in when you're using it over HDMI, which i tested and it does work well. one thing i wasnt able to tell was whether my monitor shows the 1200x720 scaled down to stock 800x480 and then upscaled to 1080i image or whether it was showing the actual 1200x720 scaled up to 1080i image. if its the 2nd then i would LOVE someone to write an app/kernel that changes dpi to make phone's UI be 1920x1080 streamed pixes-for-pixel to a 1080p tv when using HDMI and then when i'm back to normal it would revert dpi to show the normal 800x480. *true* 1080p ui over HDMI + bluetooth mouse/keyboard support = ultimate portable device!
edit: taking screenshots at both stock and various resolutions produce 800x480 PNG... so yep, seems like it just scales down high resolution down to stock
OMG!! Allen K Thanks for the info... I fix the APPs that had an issue witht hat resolution now im rocking 1200x720 everything looks amazing. I dont really think I can go back to stock

yeah, theres no way to actually change the real resolution to anything higher than native res. its hardware based.. the only way to get a higher res panel, would be well..to put a higher res panel in it. Software cant add pixels to hadrware.
I think its great that he posted a video showing what the differences look like for anyone on the fence though. no need to flame the OP, hes just trying to contribute fellas

Thinking about a Nitro?...Compare to other 720p phones!

A prevalent question on these Nitro forums is whether or not to buy it...As compared to <whatever> phone. I think the most common comparison is with the Samsung Galaxy S2.
The problem is, the GS2 is an 800x480 resolution phone. To get an idea of why that doesn't make sense, go ahead and set your laptop's screen resolution to 800x600. How's that look to you? Now walk over to your computer and set it to 1280x800, how's that?
Not exactly a controlled and scientific comparison right? Different systems, different screens, different just about everything.
IMHO, if you're considering the Nitro and want to compare it to something?...Then there's really only 1 other phone (in the US, anyway); the HTC Rezound which has the exact same CPU/GPU chipset and 1280x720 screen (LCD though, not IPS). You could also compare with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, there's a LOT of variances there too but it's one of the only phones that also has the 1280x720 screen.
I stress the commonality of 1280x720 because not everything works properly (or even at all) when trying to display at this resolution and also there's potential draw delays to compensate. So make sure you're looking at the other phones that could share this same hurdle so you set your expectations accordingly.
good points, thanks!
To add two more 720P phones were announced at ces coming to AT&T. The Sony Xperia Ion and the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD.
@Namura: Appreciate the "cold water" treatment. might make others think twice both for flaming the P930 and the comparison to other units.
@Kindawack: prototypes/announced phones don't figure into what he is talking about, as they are not market launched yet.
Knock it off all stay on topic and stop arguing, doesn't belong on xda!!!

Yeah, I wonder about the validity of their info as well. Considering the Samsung Note LTE for AT&T was only announced yesterday at CES...With the only confirms being 1.5GHz Qualcomm chipset (but no verification as to which model) and availability as "in the coming months"...Whereas that pdadb shows it as releasing in Feb and has the same APQ8060 chip as our Nitro.
man, i am way past waiting for the next kick ass phone to be released. I had been waiting since the droid bionic announcement (the 1st one ;-0) prior to getting this nitro.
not playing the *let's give it another month and see what's released* game no mo!
!
Yup, I agree. I spent 5 months waiting for nothing..... as each day passes I'm more and more pleased with the Nitro.

I am constantly hoping for a CWM breakthrough for our phone but then I remember that I am actually 100% satisfied with my rooted, debloated, blue icon and battery mod, go launcher ex Nitro, then I don't worry about CWM as much.
Same here. As long I am rooted, debloated, custom launcher (zean) and sim unlocked I am good. Custom roms would nice but a lot of time, they are a pain to keep up.

I know benchmarks dont mean squat, but I am surprised how Nitro HD fairs well in any 3D benchmarks especially with 720p screen and sub-optimised soft. See attached Antutu benchmark. Barely behind Galaxy Nexus with ICS.
I just fired up Shadowgun and it does drop a frame here and there. No Tegra afterall but 4.5 inch 720p is looking better than I remember playing on Atrix 4G.
LMAO
IPS is just one type of LCD,
IPS, MVA, PVA, ASV are all good screen types,
the only bad screen is TN, which is never used on high end android devices.
AMOLED sucks IMO, over saturated, and your vision killer. Dont even mention most of the AMOLED on the market is pentile display.

What's The Point in 720p Front Cam If It Only Transmits Videochat in 320x240?

I traded my S2 for a Galaxy Nexus because I read that the GNexus front cam supports 720p videochat.
Well I just found out that it only supports 720p video RECORDING, not video CHAT. I tested in Skype over WiFi and it transmitted in 320x240, which is much worse than the S2 transmitted at! Same result with Google Chat!
What a crock!

Well you should have no problem trading back for a SGS2. If i had a SGS2 I'd make that trade all day long.

how is a software limitation the phones fault. they limit it for bandwidth through their servers. I don't understated the problem here? just find a video chat that supports HD on ICS.

I can't see any Video chat allowing 720p. For a conference, thats 2 HD video streams (in and out). Your not going to be getting the bandwidth required for that kind of streaming
That would require each member to have TWICE that to send and receive. Plus how networking works, you'd bounce between so many servers that there is no way to guarantee that kind of bandwidth.
Streaming video is much different then streaming live service. Quality of Service is very important here to make sure Video and Audio sync up on the fly. It can't "buffer" minutes ahead (time travel?).
This is why most Video Conference are limited to 320x240 or (at most) 640x480. [email protected] is considered pretty good.
The higher the resolution the choppier it will be. And if your looking for a HD slideshow, then video conferencing isn't the best option. Trust me, when your away from your family for a few weeks, you'll take any resolution.
720p capability of the Front Camera is mostly related to taking stills and local recording.

UPDATE:
I have managed to record at 24mbs as seen in this screenshot, this is at 19fps
However what I am experiencing at the moment is a large amount of lag between pressing the record button and the it displaying on the screen that it is recording, the bit rate seems to be a bit of hit and miss, it will record at 24mbs a second sometimes and others it will do 16mbs or less. I believe this is to do with the frame rate, so it looks like we will need to sacrifice frames for a higher bit rate.. more testing and trying things out needs to be done, but it looks like it may take a little longer before I public on this.
Can You try recording at 720p 10-12 mbps whit Htc camera ?
Thank you
But I think a constant high fps(~30) is more important than pure quality...

Also curious if anyone can confirm how much better the loudspeaker is as Samsung has been weak there (my original HTC EVO loudspeaker always seems way stronger than Samsung handsets I've tried) but very glad to read (however have yet to actually hear) that its loudspeaker is:
http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-II-Review_id3134/page/3
"The loudspeaker here deserves special attention - it is very strong, stronger than on the original Note, and much stronger than on the Galaxy S III - but what is more, it sounds much fuller and with deeper bass than what we are accustomed to on smartphones."
Can anyone confirm this? -Thanks
Speaker definitely sounds a bit louder and clearer than original note

I read the the speaker of the original international Note1 was significantly weaker than the US AT&T variant so not sure to which you're referring to (ATM I can only guess the weaker INTL) but how would you compare it to others including the iPhone etc & are you satisfied with it or still disappointed by the Note2 "loudspeaker"?
Also would be cool if you could address the following when you get a chance

Thanks, I guess I'll try to contact Samsung to find out why such features would be removed?..:

Not sure why reviews have mentioned subpar sound recording with video footage on Note 2 unless the following video was flawed (hard to believe the iPhone 5 comparison audio is that bad?):

"PROS
Best HD Super AMOLED screen from Samsung to date
Significantly improved S Pen ergonomics andperformance
Excellent battery life
Powerful quad-core processor
Very good photos and video
Stellar call quality
Strong, clean loudspeaker
CONS
Subpar sound recording with video footage"
