I also have a rooted LG V20 and I'm encountering the same Netflix issue as you. Seems as though Play Store is detecting root and not allowing Netflix to be installed.

Yes, This is really starting to get crazy with this May update. Had to download Netflix from APK mirror to get it to work. Can't wait for June. Lol

I'm running a Google Store Pixel XL, unlocked, rooted, stock on May 2017 security update (thanks to using Chainfire's VerifiedBootSigner.zip). I just checked on Google Play and it says that Netflix is incompatible with my Google Pixel XL. I do, however, already have Netflix installed on my phone and it appears to launch and run just fine.
(I'm at work and haven't tested the actual playing of content.) But, I suspect that I won't receive any updates to the Netflix app based on my phone being tagged as incompatible. I do not know if this is a new condition or brought about by the May 2017 update. I did not check this on April or earlier updates. Although, upon initial release, I was obviously able to install Netflix on this phone.

If you already have Netflix installed on your phone, how are you seeing that it's incompatible on the Play Store? I have Netflix installed on my phone, just checked it on the Play Store, and it says, "Your device already has this item installed".

When using the Google Play app on my Pixel XL, I am unable to even find the Netflix app. It is not showing on my list of installed apps nor can I successfully search for it and find it within the Google Play App. However, I have the actual Netflix app installed on my phone (despite what Google Play app indicates) and I can launch it and actually play content.
If I access Google Play via the web from my Windows device, that is where I can find Netflix and see the indication that it is not compatible with my Pixel XL. (even though it is actually installed)
Thanks,
S

Thats basically exactly what I'm experiencing. It doesn't show up even when I search on play store. I downloaded Netflix from APK mirror and its fine. Play store still doesn't recognize it.
Wow true. Wouldn't have noticed. Lucky it's already installed
I noticed this last night when restoring, at this moment I am purely stock and using google search to find the play store link returns "Item not found" in the play store.
Stock os, unlocked bootloader, not rooted, Verizon pixel XL
I have a Verizon pixel XL with unlocked bootloader, not rooted, and just did may ota. Netflix app was previously installed on the phone and working fine. After update the app would open but not connect. Not even showing as installed on my phone in play store or if I searched for the app in play store. Uninstalled, downloaded from APK mirror and it works just fine.
Looks like Netflix is blocking rooted or unblocked devices!

Netflix working fine here but I did have it previously installed. Vzw Pixel, stock, rooted, and May bootloader.
you can log into netflix and watch no issue, but you are no longer able to download from play store if your device has the bootloader unlocked OR you are rooted.

you can use the application with no issue, you will no longer receive updates through the play store for this app tho. You can even download the .apk directly from netflix, you just wont be able to see it when searching the play store from your rooted device(assuming it's supersu and not magisk, magisk still works)
It looks to me like apps are starting to look for root permissions and if they find you are rooted, they won't work. So far I have seen SnapChat, DirecTV Now, and now Netflix. (See a trend here?) I think this is going to start becoming the trend of things in the future.
You guys can also just use APK mirror to find it or any other APK that doesn't show up for you or is "incompatible" for your device. Mods or warez type files. All signed apks sorted by version
@pcriz - The Directv now app still requests root access from apk mirror and if you install snapchat before rooting, it will work afterwards. I started looking into root access on a per app basis, because I really only use 2 or 3 apps that need root, instead of overall root and denying access, but I haven't gotten anywhere with it. Of course there is also Chainfire's project to hide root, but I haven't had a lot of success with that so far either. At least the last time I tried it on my HTC10.

Magisk is also an option I would consider. I use it and have root with no issues from Android pay and Snapchat.

The Magisk page says the Pixel is a WIP, have you seen any issues?
I had to completely wipe my phone since recently the battery life started tanking hard, and I couldn't figure out why. I decided to just start over from a clean slate, since I had the same configuration since I got the phone about a year or two ago (stock Android 9, unlocked, and rooted with Magisk and EdXposed).
I figured that I would flash the July image without wipe first, but the battery issue persisted. I then decided to just flash it with the wipe (after backing up data, of course), and the battery seemed to be a bit better while I was setting up.
The problem I'm now having is that my device seems to be missing Play Certification. I noticed this when I was unable to install Netflix from the Play Store (although Google Pay seemed to work fine?). I've tried flashing the image several times, and even tried older images, but I can't seem to keep Play Certification.
I tried locking the bootloader after flashing the July image, and that finally gave me Play Certification and I was able to download Netflix.
Obviously however, I need to keep an unlocked bootloader for other things too.
Is there any way to get Netflix (and Play Certification) to work with an unlocked bootloader?
Doesn't MagiskHide provide just what you're asking for? If you don't want to use Magisk, maybe try PeNoire's SafetyNet Spoofer which works without Magisk but still requires a custom recovery like TWRP.

How would I get MagiskHide to work with Netflix without being able to install the app from the Play Store? Would enabling hide for the PS work, or do I need to sideload the app and then use Hide on the app?

Netflix doesn't care about the existence of Magisk once it is already installed on your device. So don't get confused there. You're problem is with the Play Store, specifically with SafetyNet. One step at a time;
When you unlock your bootloader, you are going to fail some SafetyNet checks. This will result in a restricted Play Store, meaning, certain apps won't be visible to you. To circumvent that, you flash something like Magisk or PetNoire to hide your bootloaders state to SafetyNet checks. This will result in an unrestricted Play Store. Unlock, install Magisk or PetNoire and then you should be able to get unrestricted access to Play Store apps.
Unlock the bootloader of your device
Install the latest version of Magisk
MagiskHide should be enabled by default, if not:
Download and install PetNoir's SafetyNet Spoofer

I've tried this, but something seems to not be working, or I'm doing something wrong.
I have Magisk 19.3 installed, and I can see that MagiskHide was automatically enabled for ”com.google.android.gms.unstable" under Google Play services, but Play Store Certification still shows that my device isn't certified, and Netflix won't appear.
The SafetyNet check in MagiskManager passes, however, so I'm wondering if there's something else going on. I'm going to try the other suggested SafetyNet bypass.
EDIT: Installed the other Spoofer, and the Certification listing in the Play Store disappeared, but Netflix is still nowhere to be seen. I tried uninstalling all updates for the Store and clearing storage and cache, but still nothing.
Wondering if I should just sideload Netflix and see if it works fine.
EDIT2: After a few moments, the Play Store now says that my device is certified, but I'm still unable to find Netflix in the Store for some reason. Tried rebooting and clearing cache but still nothing.

I'v been been having the same issue for about 5-6 months now with both Android 9 and 10. It was working fine on Pie and showing up in Google Play, but then after I flashed one of the monthly system images with a wipe, the app no longer showed up in the play store. And after I restored the most recent Netflix app at the time from a backup, it would constantly crash. I have all Google Play Services, Google Play and Netflix selected in Magisk hide. Google Play says my device is certified. Magisk SafetyNet test passes along with any SafetyNet test app. Logged out of my Google account, wiped data for Google Play, Google Play services and Netflix, rebooted and signed back in but still not showing up. Downloaded and installed the newest Netflix app from their site but I get an error stating the device is not supported with the app which clearly isn't the case.
Can you select this link and have it open in the Google Play app on your phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netflix.mediaclient&hl=en_US
It shows up for me but says in red font: "This app isn't compatible with your device anymore. Contact the developers for more info". Which I did...went back and forth with Google and Netflix for hours yesterday, but both of their support is completely useless.
The newest version of the app that works for me is version 6.26.1. You can download it here if you haven't already: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netflix-inc/netflix/netflix-6-26-1-build-15-31696-release/
The only thing is how long is it going to continue to work. A future update will most likely break that version as well.
Have you made any progress since July?

That's actually the exact same version of Netflix that I was able to get working, and I've been using it since July.
It works exactly as it should, but the resolution seems to be capped at 480p or 720p, as I notice a lot of blurriness. It's still usable, but I'm considering getting rid of Magisk and going to 10 to avoid these issues.
Reading on what you've done, it's exactly what I went through in July.
I'm not sure what's changed since prior to updating to another security patch, Netflix was working completely fine from the Play Store with Magisk.

Yeah and also after a few minutes of watching a video, the screen dims like right before your phone auto-locks itself due to inactivity. So far the only way I was able to get it to show back up in Google Play was re-locking the bootloader, but that's not really an option for me since I want to stay rooted. But it really doesn't make any sense since all the SafetyNet compatibility tests pass and the device is certified. Maybe I'll try reaching out to the Magisk dev and see if he's willing to take a look into it.

I don't seem to have that screen dimming issue, so it's possible that something else is going on on your end for that.
It's possible that Netflix is able to detect root through some other way that's irrelevant to Google Play Protection. And it could also be a thing where the resolution is limited if you're not on the latest version.
If I do figure something out in the future, I'll be sure to post here again.

I don't think the issue is because of being rooted, but instead the unlocked bootloader as it still doesn't show up after uninstalling Magisk or after a system image flash with wipe. Like I mentioned earlier, the only way I can get it to show in Google Play or have the newest version work when side loaded at this point is when the bootloader is locked. So if you don't mind not being rooted or being able to manually flash updates without a factory reset each time, just re-lock your bootloader (just remember to backup your data since it wipes your phone) and Netflix should work normally again.
But I'll be sure post here as well if I come across anything that works.
What you both need is to install/flash a custom kernel...
On top of many multiple things a custom kernel can do, one significant thing is to be able to mask root on many/most root detecting processes. When I first rooted 2 years ago, I couldn't get Google Pay to work because of the root detecting. I had inadvertently flashed a custom kernel, and was pleasantly surprised that Google Pay began to work (back then, but now more than a custom kernel is required).
The best general all-around custom kernel was called Flash, but that became EOL and stopped development, but one called Caesium was built based off of Flash and continued from there; even collaborated with the maker of Flash.
Give it a try, and see how it works wonders for both your issue (root detection) battery life, and even responsiveness of the system!
Hope this helps...

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll make sure to try this after updating to the latest Pie build. I'm sure that this will work, as I remember using a custom kernel last time that Netflix was working just fine for me.
I also just found a thread with a stock kernel infused with a SafetyNet patch that says that Netflix and other apps refused to work on unlocked bootloader devices because something trips in SafetyNet, leading me to believe that this is what me and @giants8058 have been experiencing.
I will let everyone know if this works later this week.

You have to flash a custom Kernel to hide bootloader unlock. After you flash the custom kernel the play store will still show as not being certified. You will have to force stop the play store then delete the cache and storage. When you reboot it will show that it is certified.

1. Download TWRP 3.3.0 img file
2. Download TWRP 3.3.0 zip file (optional)
3. Download Magisk 19.3
4. Download kernel of choice. (I use Sultan)
5. Boot to fastboot
6. Boot to TWRP. (fastboot boot TWRP. Img) I shorten the file name to make it easier.
7. Flash kernel first if using Sultan
8. Flash TWRP zip. (optional)
9. Flash Magisk 19.3
10. Let phone boot then delete data/cache in play store.
11. Reboot phone
These are the steps I use. If I remember correctly there was a couple of versions of the play store that showed uncertified no matter what. The latest play store version is 16.5.15. I can confirm it works. I also hide Google Play services in Magisk hide but I don't think that's needed unless you want Google Pay to work.

Those steps are actually exactly what I did, but the certification label in the settings is missing, and Netflix won't appear.
If it means anything, I noticed that I actually had Sultan kernel installed before doing any of this, so it might be that the kernel isn't working on my end.

Well...I can say, at least, that I am having the same experience as murphyjasonc and am able to get "Play Protect Certification" certified and I have an unlocked bootloader with root and even a custom recovery.
I would make sure you do as he suggests and at the very least disable or "uninstall updates" for the Play Store and Google Play Services. But, also, custom kernels are things that also need to be updated; so this might be the explanation on it no longer working. But I know you had recently reflashed Sultan, so it is rather puzzling that you are still having those issues.
Just making sure, you are using TWRP to install the latest version of those kernels, correct? Also, when you had ran the August patch, did you use the Full Factory version? Are you able to pass safetynet currently?
Hopefully retrying these will get things up and running...

I used the latest version of TWRP to install the August OTA patch, as well as to install the latest Sultan kernel.
I just ran a SafetyNet test in MagiskManager and it passed correctly.

Give this a try...
instead of the OTA, try the Full Factory version -- and be sure to remove the "-w" in the flash-all to keep your data intact -- and then, also, be sure to disable/"uninstall updates" for both the Google Play Store and the Google Play Services (you can enable it after disabling it of course). After that, boot up TWRP and flash the Sultan kernel and Magisk and see if you don't have the certification after all that.
If you don't know; you can't simply run the Full Factory .zip's in TWRP, so if you don't know how to do a Full Factory version, I can point you in the right direction...
Good luck!

Hm... Are Play Games and all other google services working?
Everything is working flawlessly on my Black Shark 3 (12GB/256GB).
Do you get your error before paying, or during the transaction itself?

You do know that the CN version doesn't support all the bands that the US uses right?
As for the games, after you install Google Play, you need to login with your Google account. What will determine the region of the content you see is your account alone.

my issue on googlepay is before paying
and normally we use google payment it will prompt u to use fingerprint or password but mine just dont appear at all
i live in singapore so its not region issue
I have the same problem. I have a black shark 3 pro though (CN). But I have two issues, Google pay or in game payment doesn't work, but at the same time Google maps doesn't work. Every other Google service works well. Can anybody explain to me what's happening here? Thank you.
Had this issue before, but probably because I messed up with the google play services/framework/store. Reset everything, install google installer from the app stofe, and voila payment works again (at the play store/in app purchase).

Yes it worked, I also had location based issue where I couldn't access Google maps. Just make sure your A-GPS settings are set to Google (in case you are using the CN version of the device) and you'll be fine as long as you grant all Google play services all permissions. Everything is working flawlessly now.
How did you access the A-GPS settings on your BS3? I'm on China ROM too but can't find it
Updated: finally able to access the A-GPS settings. Changed to supl.google.com but still didn't fixed the google maps issue in 3rd party apps such as grab. But i can use google maps just fine.

Hey, glad you were able to get it to work!
I followed this guide:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/dkdwie/guide_how_to_fix_gps_and_notification_issues_for/
Might take a few hours for everything to kick in. Make sure everything is being synced. I don't know about that specific app but many major apps got maps working after that. Hope everything works out for you.

Hi, please ensure you allow ALL permissions to Google apps and set your GPS settings from CN to global Android using the reddit link I posted on the first page. Then wait for a good 1-2 hours of use to let everything sync in and everything should work perfectly.
No way it works...
Thanks a Lot, now it works all what I want... I dont get it, but it works
Edit: do I have to allow realy all permissions, like they can send SMS, delete contacts or See all my Accounts on Device?
I tried to get some permissions out und now Pokemon have no GPS xD

Does anyone knows how to solve my issue with Black Shark 3. All of The call of duty resources keeps on downloading after 2 hours. i tried to reinstall it and format my phone but still having the same issue.Thanks
So, I managed to root this beauty 1+9 Pro relatively easily.
I got Magisk installed, and hid all the Apps that needed hiding.
Even Google Pay works.
But I can't for my sanity figure out why Netflix or Android OS 11 is refusing to let me install Netflix.
Everytime I try to install the Netflix App latest APK, extracted from my old working phone ( Razer Phone 2 also rooted), it will just give me the error message " Sorry No Application Available "
Does anyone have a clue what can be done to make Netflix install in a rooted 1+9 Pro ?
Thanks.
BTW i tried several Netflix App version already.
Also I do know the APK works because I used it to install on another Tablet that will not show up Netflix on Google store.

Is Netflix currently installed as a system app? I wasn't able to uninstall that or get it working, so when I was on 11.2.2.2 I managed to fix it by installing a *newer* version of the Netflix apk that I grabbed from apkpure.com, over top of the system app. Then I had the same issue again on 11.2.4.4, and that method didn't work anymore. However, that time it let me uninstall updates to the app and then update in the play store.
I dont know how exactly, but Netflix still detects the rooted device and denies the install from google play, I think based in the unocked boot loader not sure.
I managed to install from apkmirror and is working fine now.
there is a catch though.
They are moving away from simple apk install and using apk bundles, like some sort of tarball with several apks in it, so you will need this apkm installer app for it to install the newer version. to get this installer working you need to disabled MIUI optimizations from dev options. thats all, I got mine working this passed saturday that way
EDIT: never mind with that MIUI option i thought this was a diffirent model, none the less the apkmirror is still worth a shot
I some how managed to force install it via Titanium Backup, but then it gives me another error when I try to run Netflix App.
" This device is not supported by the app "
it's running the latest version Netflix v7.102.0 build 12 35461
You have to install Magisk Canary, once you do so reboot the phone. Wipe Google play stores data and cache.. magisk hide Netflix and the Google Play Services reboot once more. That's how I got mine to work.
Install: liboemcrypto disabler
from Magisk, reboot ....enjoy

I just did after reading this.
It's not showing up in Google Play store.
It's just so weird, everything else works, Google Pay (wallet), Pokemon Go, Banking Apps, everything else that usually will complain and refuse to run when Root is detected, are all working fine, except for Netflix.

I'm thinking maybe I'll need to un-root my phone, update Netflix, see if it runs without root, if it works, then try to root again and figure how to go from there.

I did this and had the same problem while unrooted, so it turned out to be a waste of time. It seems to have an issue with the unlocked bootloader, not just root. At least with root you can hide unlocked status, which is a step in the right direction. Hide root from Netflix, and also hide magisk app itself in magisk settings.
If you're trying to install Netflix over the system app, make sure to first uninstall updates to the system app so it's the oldest possible version. Then make sure whatever version you're installing on top (whether from play store or APK download) is newer than your installed version. Older versions will not install over newer ones.

There are sai versions floating around here that work search xda also make sure you magisk hide Netflix before you open it initially. Or hide them clear cache and data on netflix

Update.
Minor good news.
I wiped the phone from recovery mode.
So, the phone is kind of factory mode, I completed the "new" phone setup thing, and the first thing I went to try was Netflix and it worked.
So... it appears to be something to do with Root and/or Magisk being detected.
Update 2
More good news, I rooted it again, installed Magisk and Netflix is still working.
Not sure why it wasn't working before, also not quite sure what was the actual fix.
I don't really consider a full system wipe a "fix" but well that did it for me.

A wipe isn't necessary but glad you got it working

So, I just imported Apps and Data from the old phone again via Google "setup my device" transfer, and now Netflix got disabled again.
I'll try again and skip Google transfer to find out if that helps.
I can always use One+ Switch App to see if that is better.

OnePlus switch will still result in the same issue. Clear data and cache,install the app link I provided and make sure magiskhide is set to on.

Seems like it worked,
I installed a full APK from my old phone and now it's able to run.
However it still doesn't show up in Google Play store when I search for Netflix.
Yesterday I rooted my device thanks to you guys, which went really well and passing SafetyNet was a breeze. I just have a few questions that I'd like to get solved:
1) Play Store Certification - I accomplished this by using the fingerprint mask Magisk module, and I chose OnePlus 8 Pro Android 11 for my fingerprint. Play Store certification is now accomplished, but should I have had to do this? This leads on to question 2....
2) I thought I would be able to get certification by adding the Play Store to Magisk hide, but Play Store doesn't appear in the list of apps in Magisk. Same with Netflix. I was confused by this, as a) I thought that all apps should appear and b) the root tutorial pinned to the forum specifically says to add Play Store and Netflix to Magisk hide
3) My Netflix Widevine is now L3. Did I mess up somewhere? I've read that on OOS11, unlocking the bootloader doesn't trip Widevine

Well you could have gone much easier.
1) Turn on Magisk Hide and Systemless Hosts.
2) Right bottom of Magisk Hide theres the Magnifying glass to search. Click on it and click Show System Apps. Then Play Store and Google Services will be shown. Hide everything in Play Store tab and Google Play Services Tab. Also Netflix tab.
3) Clear cache of Play Store, Google Play Services, Netflix(might even unistall updates here just to be sure, thats what i did).
4) Reboot Phone, Go Play Store and update Netflix through Play Store at this point. Should be at Widevine L1

Ok I will try this, thanks for the pointer. I had hit that System Apps thing before but perhaps it didn't refresh. I can see it now

I will download from there, that's what I did before. I deleted the fingerprint, and hid the Play Store, and I'm now certified with Play Protect without all that rubbish. Is it just a matter of time then before Netflix shows up again? I will install the APK - presumably I will still be able to get updates through the Play Store after that. I will let you know if I get Widevine L1
Nope, still L3. I don't even watch Netflix that much on my phone, so it's not urgent, but I'd just like to know that everything was working as a standard phone would :/
To me it was shown after some time. got a update of netflix through playstore and got widevine L1. Unistall udpates on Netflix and wait maybe u will get it from playstore after some time
Did you start off with Widevine L3 when you first unlocked? If it's supposed to remain at L1 and it hasn't for me, then I don't know if it's worth waiting. Can it go back up?

I dont actually know that. Netflix was not available after rooting. And since i had just unlocked bootloader phone was resetted. So i was installing all apps and updates and netflix was not available. I managed to install all updates of apps and installed new apps, did magisk hide and hide netflix, play store, google services, clear cache, reboot. still netflix wasnt available but i did not open it, until later when i got an update through netflix, logged in, checked it was L1
Got the update, just came through. Added to Magisk hide, logged in, but it's still L3.
