I was messing around with xposed and Sony framework for ps4 remote play. I tried running Netflix and got an error, don't remember syntax. So deleted Netflix and tried to DL and now it won't show in play store . went to history to see it and says incompatible. So I did a dirty flash of same older ROM, same thing. So i did a full reset and installed lineage and same thing, incompatible. What am I missing?
Bad enough my nexus' rotation is broke, touch screen randomly doesn't take inputs, usb port broken, only charges and can't connect PC for files. Wireless charging randomly doesn't work and drains over night, etc. The one thing I had was some browsing and Netflix.
I had the same thing, the last update of Netflix it said it was incompatible and since then it doesn't show in the Play Store. Luckily I still have the previous version installed, but failing that you could try installing version 4.8.5 from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862715472

****ers. This did it meanwhile I thought my **** was broken bad.
Now lineage looks OK but typing in browser has 2 second delay before showing on screen.
Incidentally having looked further into the Netflix problem, apparently this is deliberate on Netflix's part; they've just decided not to allow installation on unlocked/rooted devices. At least they haven't blocked it entirely, I suppose, but I see lots of people threatening to close their Netflix accounts over it - most of the recent Play Store reviews are 1 or 2 stars because of it.
Yeah people are getting their accounts locked and banned due to this. Such a silly move from Netflix, classic corporate decision and they think it'll help stop piracy with offline downloads then people using root to grab them and upload them. Seems the long way to do it haha. If anything this will drive people to piracy, however we who root are a big niche so I doubt they'll care.
Magisk will get around this but you gotta be careful as if stuff updates then SafetyNet breaks and you open Netflix you'll be screwed. Or use an old apk like someone mentioned further up. Though this may turn server side soon.
it's because ur rooted. the netflix company has started blocking ppl from installing netflix to a rooted device or a device with an unlocked bootloader. idk most of whts going on but i think it has something to do with androids version of widevine. u can still get the latest netflix by sideloading the app from downloading an apk from a trusted source like apk mirror. hope i helped!

Has anyone else had any issues with the Play Store on their Fire TV? I updated the Play Store on mine to a newer version, mainly because every time I tried to download something I'd get stuck with that annoying spinning circle. Now when I go into, I get a message saying it can't connect to the Internet, even though the other apps on my Fire can. I'm even typing this on my Fire through Firefox, after being told by the Play Store there's no connection. Any help would be appreciated. I'm trying to download the game Implosion: Never Lose Hope, and I know I can get it through Aptoid, but the thing stops a little more than half way through giving me an error, forcing me to start it over again from the beginning. Thanks in advance.
Bump, bumpity, bump. Am I the only one who's experienced this? For a while, the Play Store was already acting funky, taking forever to start a download, if it did. At least then it connected, but now I get nothing. I'm not a noob to Android, but little things like this confuse me a bit, especially when comparing the settings on my Fire, S4, and Tab 3 8.0. They all look similar. Oh, well, maybe I missed some small thing that's hiding from me.

Google play store has stopped working on the Fire phone as well.
I can open it but all there is is a white screen with a search bar. And the search bar doesn't pull up results. Is this happening to more users?
I wish I knew how to fix it. As long as I have it installed, even though I can't do anything with it, I can still play the games that require Google Play Store to be installed. The load issues with the Play Store were so annoying, I have been using Aptoid to download games. The downside to using Aptoid, though, is that when you look up something like Implosion: Never Lose Hope, only two pop up; the big one with a 1.1gig download and the smaller one that prompts for a data pack download. The big one stops a little more than half way through and I have to start all over again, and the smaller one never takes me to the download. The game I'm talking about is free, by the way, on the Play Store. It says only the first 6 levels are free and you have to pay to play the rest of the game, but it looks so cool. Anyway, had to get that out. Laters.
same here, first it was just the spinning circle on a white screen
I tried clearing the cache and data for all google relayed apps, rebooted
No dice, now it somehow still knows my Google account, but says it can't connect..

Last night on a different thread, I got a good tip. All we did was delete Google play services on aftv and play store worked again. Don't ask me why...I always assumed it was necessary but apparently not.

I started playing around with another app market I read about in a different thread on this forum called 1 Mobile Market. It looks kind of similar to the Play Store and references it on some of the apps. I haven't downloaded much with it yet except the game Implosion: Never Lose Hope, but it only downloaded a 20 MB apk, kind of like installing Dead Trigger and then the data pack, except the data pack never comes, so the market may be a little hit-or-miss.

Actually, I tried the same. I noticed that both google play service and google play store were updated automatically to some later version, so I uninstalled them and reinstall the old version (4.x), then I can launch google play store. However, only one. The second time, I launch play store, the same white screen showed up. And I can see bot play service and play store were (once again) updated to later version automatically.
I also have problem with youbue app now. It simply does not play video (sound is ok), not sure if it is related or not.
not in my case but i m looking for full version as only two stages can be played in demo version downloaded from store so if anyone can give me correct link or any kind of source of either full version or crack then it would be appreciated and helpful
on my rooted ftv 5.0.4, netflix menu/selection it looks almost like scrambled...shows play fine but its hard to pick anything... i tried deleting the cache/data/reinstalling/rebooting/ and nothing.. even installing the latest apk from google and nothing
any ideas?
I have the same issue with the Netflix menus on FireTV 2 rooted 5.0.5. Repeating patterns of bitmap graphic segments and portions of photos are scrambled over the program selection menus as well as the progress bar overlay during pause and fast forward. Video playback is fine, so I gave up after spending a couple hours trying various methods to fix it. For me, this issue seemed to happen independently of any Amazon OS or Netflix updates. The same Netflix version previously worked fine on both 5.0.4 and 5.0.5.
Repair methods attempted:
Cleared data and cache - same result
Uninstalled and reinstalled latest FireTV version of Netflix - same result
Installed older as well as newer versions of Netflix for AndroidTV - same result; every version appeared exactly identical to the FireTV version
Installed Android phone version of Netflix - works properly, but is awkward to use and seems to use a completely seperate set of files from the TV version
i havent tried netflix for full android but i tried everything u did too and we are on the same boat...
here is a link for more individuals having same issue...
https://www.reddit.com/r/fireTV/comments/4o5czq/netflix_scrambled_issue_on_brand_new_fire_tv/
either update to newer OS or install older Netflix.apk (though it will autoupdate?!)
I have the same problem-- scrambled menu on Netflix. It's the only streaming service that scrambles (and it only does it on TV, not on my phone or laptop). Furthermore, it began when I had Time-Warner/Spectrum, but this month I switched to Verizon/Fios and it is still scrambling. Netflix is the only constant here, so it has to be a Netflix problem. I've tried all the solutions mentioned above, and it still scrambles-- usually the menu, but sometimes also the show I start playing. When I called Netflix, the asked me -- get this!-- to list the channels it happens to. My reply was to ask them if they knew how much work that would involve-- they have hundreds if not thousands of programs-- and that, furthermore, I wouldn't do that if they paid me. I'm a customer, not tech support. (Sorry not to be of any help in solving the problem; just adding to the chorus.)

When I was using 5.05 I used "netflix-4.16-200217-FromNetflix.apk" that come from Netflix.

A few months back, I had side-loaded Google apps onto my stock device.
(I'm on 4.6.6.1 now - not sure if this upgrade happened recently...)
I am using it with a Project Fi data-only sim and letting the kid use it for Pokemon Go.
All of a sudden, PoGo won't start (GPS signal not found), and I can't load the Play Store (it just says at a blank white screen). Anyone else have something like this happen, and is there a simple fix?
Me too,today Nov 11 my google maps and play store dont work
same for me since 4 days....
I'm not on stock atm but in the past that exact thing would happen to my Google play if Google sent an update for it's services that somehow broke it on the firephone. Google has made about 3 updates this month so try reinstalling an older version or something and see if it works.
I don't need this when the whole world is falling apart.

All my fire phones were working fine with side loaded framework, google services, play store etc. as explained in the xda forum. They would automatically update and nothing broke except for a brief period a year or so ago which got fixed automatically after a few days. I know Google broke it with an update at that time, but not sure who fixed it -- Amazon or Google.
But now, the same things has happened. With Google Services update a couple of days ago things have come off their moorings.
Youtube, Maps, and the Play store itself are on the blink. Other things which require Play services also are gone, of course.
I am afraid, this time around, Amazon seems to have really given up on the fire phone. So the chances are quite bleak that they would take any trouble to fix this. eg. They don't even support Amazon Music Unlimited, and Audible on their own Fire Phone! Both are Amazon's own products!!
Check out this thread, last couple pages. Got me going again (for now, anyways).

Thanks. That got me going for 36 hours. Then it automatically started updating, and back to square one... Google Play Services has stopped working blah blah blah..
The deicsion to freeze and branch off from a version of Android was a very short-sighted selfish, customers-be-damned decision.
Amazon seems to be a really bad version of Apple without the technical wherewithal to sustain itself.
What a pity. The fire phone itself is a great one.
Is there any chance that a non-Google non-Amazon fix can work at all?

Since we're here, I'm assuming we have our phones rooted. That said, is there some way to just block the updater with a firewall or something similar?
The new google play services update broke all amazon google services in stock fire OS
We have to block the update process or wait for fix in next play services update
Anyone find a way to fix it

I had this exact same problem and it started last night as well, I tried reinstalling but then I got the "Google Play Services has stopped" message repeatedly, i'll keep looking as I need this fix asap for work

"Wrong!!"
Sorry, the would is still fresh..
No.. none of my phones is rooted. The beauty of this Xda-forum solution of side loading the four files (Account framework, Account Manager, play services, & play store) was that they don't have to be rooted.
Just update framework and Login Component to Version 4.4.4 and delete the data from store and Services and everything should be fine.

Updating all manually to the newest kitkat version does seem to do it (though, I only just did it). Didn't even check the versions as I assumed they auto-updated as well. Should last a bit longer now till that version is too old.
Good catch. Thanks.

Not sure if people are still following this thread but I thought to share. I was able to sideload Amazon music unlimited. It disables native music app but doesn't launch using the same app link. I need to use ES Explorer's App library function to select and launch. Otherwise it works well. Not sure if the audible app would work the same.

Luckily the Amazon FTV App is in a different update cycle then the PlayStore's. No problem with playback on my Rooted FTV1 so far. Watching the new NORM MACDONALD Comedy Special to test it out ... :laugh: :good: (He still got one of the best unique deliveries)
False alarm. Just a coincidence. Still need a new streaming solution with locals and DVR. That's not asking for much.
Mind if I ask how you fixed this error?
Ever since installing the latest pre-rooted on my Fire TV gen 1, netflix just comes back with ui-error-800-3
Everything I found on the net to try and fix it has not worked. It works fine on my non-rooted Fire Stick, just not the Fire TV.
Thanks.

I just wanted to throw this in there because I had the exact same problems with a brand new device, not rooted - Samsung Galaxy S8+ kept giving me the error "Sorry, we cannot reach the Netflix service. Error (-1001)." I looked and looked for answers and couldn't figure it out, and finally I found VPN apps. I downloaded Turbo VPN from the Play Store and installed it and started it. I then started Netflix and it actually opened. I tried to watch a show via streaming and it said that I had to uninstall my VPN app. I thought "great, now it's over". But it wasn't! I turned off the VPN and restarted Netflix and it actually opened like normal (without any errors!) and now I can watch my shows. I don't know if this was a block by Samsung or AT&T or whatever to make us use their DirectTV Now service, but this was how I fixed the issue.
Seems the phone with 10 it's "uncertified device", I checked magisk hide, wiped play store storage, rebooted and... still no Netflix, but most importantly certified device is ****ing gone! No more section under play store settings! Any ideas?
The Netflix issue has existed for months and is unrelated to 10. Do a search, and you will see my name all over the posts. As for the device not certified issue, hide Play Store with Magisk clear cache and data and then uninstall updates so it reverts to factory Play Store which will update and certify..

I did everything again, also uninstalled the updates like u say (I didn't try it before) and nothing changed, the strange thing is this, look the screenshot, the certified section under settings in the store is completely gone!
EDIT: I've installed an old apk and now when I've open the play store link of the app it's says "the application it's not compatible anymore"
I did some testing on this in another thread and it seems the issue is the unlocked bootloader. Has little or nothing to do with the Playstore being certified which mine is.. and still can't install Netflix from the store. I sideloaded on the final version of 10 and Netflix does work.. But it's still a hassle.

DvLAx3l - From what I have seen, when it shows neither certified or not it is actually certified and just waiting for the next play store update to trigger it. Not certified is an issue. It may be that when you installed 10 the play store version was already at that one. Tap on the version number, and that will check to see if what you have is the latest and if not queue it up for change. When it does change, you might have to go through the steps again of hide, clear cache and data and remove updates to get it to trigger. I have been through this a bunch of times including finally getting it to work the other day when the update finally pushed.
jbarcus81 - Unfortunately it is something beyond the BL unlock since that is masked my every custom kernel and it remains an issue. It appears to be related to the device, the OS and the BL state at least. I have wondered out loud if Google tracks the BL status by individual device and records the status based on lock and unlock changes. Bottom line is that certified doesn't mean jack anymore. It is basically low hanging fruit while things like GPay and Netflix are looking well past that.
Just wait a few days and play store will update the app.
Like u guys said, everything is work now! Thanks ?
