New Netflix update (8/7/13) borking playback on rooted device? - Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps

Just updated the Netflix app, 4.3 optimizations, etc, and while I can browse the library, I get an error message upon playback. Something about not being able to contact the Netflix servers. Also tried on my HTC One X w/ CM 10.1, and it worked just fine on the same internet connection.
N7.2 with stock ROM (2 OTA updates), unlocked, and rooted.
Anyone else getting this error?

Confirm issues cm10.2
You can clear app data a few times in a row, solved the issue for me for now. Got through one movie anyway

After updating, I had the same problem last night. I was able to remedy it by unistalling Netflix, reinstalling it and signing back in. If that doesn't work, try clearing the cache for Netflix App.
Good luck!

Using Paranoid Android and have no problems with Netflix.

Would somebody mind pulling the apk for me? Every time I try to download I get "Package invalid" on both my N4 and N7.
Both are running CM 10.2 and I hope that is not the issue.

Agreed. Clearing data didn't help for some reason. Reinstall did.

Worked for me also, but this new version offers a great new stuttering audio over bluetooth feature.

I have problem being able to login at all with my Netflix app. It responds with the typical wrong password or username popup, even though I'm certain the credentials are correct. Have anyone experienced this?

[Q] Does Draw Something Free crash on your phone?

It does on mine, very frustrating.
It usually freezes on the ad screen and won't let me progress from there, so my drawings never get sent.
ROM: aokp_toro_milestone-4
worked for me the few days I had it. Paid version works also.
I'm using the paid version but I dont have a crashing problem.
What ROMs are you guys on?
AOKP B36 since this morning, haven't played yet today, but doubt anything has changed. It has always worked fine for me on previous versions of AOKP: B35, M5, M4..
EDIT: Just played a few games on B36, all is well.

That's right, no ads. But I do play with a few girls who have VZW GN stock rooted 4.0.4, they use the free version and have never said anything to me about it crashing. Do you have AdFree or a similar app that could be causing the problem?
Yep. Aokp or cm9. Just stopped playing it

What matters is the kernel. Saw this issue so many times in the LG G2x forums, suggested using a different kernel, and Viola! It works. Not sure which ones work and don't for the Nexus though, try different ones out till you find one.

Nope, I have nothing like that installed on my phone, unless it came stock w/the ROM.
Funny thing is that I just uninstalled and re-installed it and it still crashes about 20-25% of the time on the ad screen.

Thanks! I'm using Franco kernel as well, the latest milestone release. Which one are you using?
Free version worked fine for me today. Aokp.
AOKP B34, Glados kernel 1.31 - it works fine for me, it will crash on the ads sometimes though. I've got the free version.
Paid version on AOKP no crash

I'm getting the crashes too. Though the drawings gets sent most of the times, not like before when i had to draw again 2-4 times to get it through.

I think I know what might be causing the crashes.
For those of you who are experiencing crashes, are you logging in with your Facebook account or your OMGPOP/normal email account?
I quit Facebook since Feb'2012 and so I'm logging in with my regular email account.
I wonder if that might be why it's crashing?
I have the same issue with the free version. It will go back to my launcher after completing a drawing. Sometimes it sends the drawing, other times I have to redo it.
I do not have facebook, so I am using the omgpop login. I'm on Liquid 1.35 with Lean Kernel 3.4.0
For me, draw something often crashes in between rounds. After the ad.
Happens on my gnex with AOKP M3 and with Apex 1.12. Haven't tried with stock.
FWIW, I use facebook for my draw something account.

the Horn thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863322
In there I posted; if u have problem with license, just launch the game from within the Play store once or twice, then you can try again with the shortcut. If you install and then goes straight to shortcut, it doesn't work most of the times.
Not sure if that's how the game registered, but that fixed it for me.

No connection for Google apps

Using LiquidSmooth ROM for about a week, suddenly my Play store doesn't work
It says "No connection" no matter what [I'm using Wi-Fi and can use web browsing and WhatsApp so its definitely not a connection problem]
Edit:
Its not just Google play, it's all Google's apps [Except for google maps, which was downloaded manually], and my Wifi signal is gray
I looked it up and the only fixes I came up for this issue is having the device set to the wrong date, but its not the issue here, it just has the same symptoms
Can anyone help? :|

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies Discussion Thread

As the title states, this thread was created for the sole purpose of discussion on CM 10.2 nightlies.
Discuss bugs, ask questions, discuss apps, describe your experience and anything else.
TWRP 2.6.x is confirmed to work for these nightlies.
Cwm 6.0.3.6 is confirmed thanks to polarbe4r
To those new or unaware :
So yesterday as of August 13th, CM has been releasing nightlies for Android 4.3.x for our D2tmo. Go to get.cm and click on D2tmo to download them.
Please don't forget to download the latest GAPPS for 4.3.0 from goo.im/gapps and keep in mind the latest GAPPS function only on the latest 4.3.0 current release.
My experience with it so far : I've had very bad run ins with CM on the d2tmo personally in the past. Audio bugs, bad battery, random bootloops occasionally. I would however like to report the nightlies seem stable, smooth and decent on battery. So far with the exception of Focal the New camera app, I have not noticed a problem, luckily the 4.3 AOSP camera is included in. I recommend sticking to stock kernel for the time being. I tried a couple of third party kernels and had some restarts and graphic bugs. So please, if you have tested the nightlies yet, please leave some feedback for the user and the developers.
Please use the following GAPPS for these 10.2 night lies :

I'll hopefully have enough time this weekend to fiddle with my phone and try whatever nightly is up at the time. One thing I'll say right now is that I'll setup everything like I have it right now. Might lose a few mods I recently got but no big deal, all reversible. I hope there's no problems restoring from 4.3 to a 4.2.2 CWM backup.

You mean your backup is stored on an external SD card?
I had a screen of death while listening to play music and skipping a track with holding the volume up feature.
Dirty Upgraded from Nightly 8-13 to Nightly 8-14. Upgraded Gapps as well. FC'd for the first reboot on Phone (Dialer was not present from 8-13).
Used all day on Dirty Upgrade without issue after a few reboots. Play Store could not update any software and Helium could not take a backup.
Got home and Clean installed 8-14 and Gapps. Zero problems after install on typical applications. Rebooted for Google to Restore Apps from Backup. File Manager can not display /storage/emulated/0 or /storage/emulated/legacy after enabling root mode. Had to use /mnt/shell/emulated/0 and /mnt/shell/emulated/legacy (Yes I know they are the same location, but just for thoroughness I used both).
Using Terminal Emulator you are able to see that /storage/emulated/legacy exists, but /storage/emulated/0 does not.
Code:
su
cd /storage/emulated
ls -a

Build number JWR66N breaks Netflix on all devices. Wait for the next OTA or install it yourself with one of the guides.
I'm still on JSS15J though... no updates yet.
I had a similar problem. I just cleared the app data, force quit, restarted the app, and logged back in. I'm on JSS15Q though. Not sure if that matters.

This does in fact matter. As far as I know, netflix is broken on JWR66N and will only work on the JSSXXX builds.
You can fix this issue manually here. You must have the ADB tools on your computer, and can get them from this thread. This is how I fixed mine. Just make sure you pay attention and know what you're doing.
EDIT: I recommend going to JSS15Q from whatever build you are on.

A reboot didn't do it for me. This only happened on my first run of Netflix on my new N7. Netflix was one of many apps that were automatically restored on sign-in, and I'm thinking it restored the data along with it. I don't recall being asked to sign in the first time I ran it, when it failed to work properly. After clearing the data and signing in, it worked fine for me. Either way, it works now.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I am having the same type of problem.... I have a rooted 2013 N7 on the latest firmware (JSS15J).
If I use the netflix from the play store I get stuck on the first red screen with the spinning logo and can never get past that point. I have tried uninstalling about 100 times, clearing app data, force closing app, rebooting, etc.... nothing works for me.
I had to go back and install an older version of netflix to at least get it working at all.
Is this happening to anyone else and if so please let us know the exact steps needed to work around this.
Thanks!

To be quite honest, stock android on this device is buggy as hell so far. I am a stock/rooted whenever possible kind of guy generally speaking(I always prefer it since you can get OTA's etc), but I was forced to switch to CyanogenMod 10.2 KANGS on this device, due to crazy bugs. They are now a thing of the past. From the smart-cover bug to the GPS bug to the Netflix BREAK, all of these problems are no problem for me. So go get PA or CM or something until Google/Asus gets their **** together! :good:

If you go back to 2.4.0 build 939, the bluetooth audio problem goes away, here's a copy from my backup:

May need to install, and do a force stop / clear data before it connects. The Netflix Android app seems to have more bugs than functionality.
