Netflix speculation and hacking - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

First off, let me express how pissed I am that there isn't a working android Netflix app. The fact that WINDOWS PHONE 7 got it before us is absolutely retarded. I understand the issue with security and stuff, but why not at least release it to work on phones that have proper DRM certification (I've heard second-generation snapdragon would be compatible.)
Now, I would like people to tell of any inside information they might have on an ETA, in addition to any info there may be on a cracked version of the leaked app.
I'm getting really impatient, and if it's true that ONLY phones that haven't been released yet can run it, I don't even know...
So once again, post anything you know about Netflix for android.

It was working on the evo for a couple days based on a security loophole. But netflix closed it really fast, made me mad too. No battlestar galactica from my phone sucks!

They just released an official version:

Anyone have it working on Epic 4g from another download? Not showing up in market. I was hoping since Galaxy S had it the Epic would.

The APK is available here:

Isn't there a way to change the "name" of our device so the app thinks we're using a Nexus S?

Just try running the APK I just posted - I have an HD2 running Android off my SD card which emulates an HTC Desire and the APK works no problem!

Yeah... it didn't work. I think I'll have to fiddle with my build.prop to see if I can fix. Anyone know if I'm wasting my time?

Works great on my evo! Thanks for posting this thread, I didn't even know it was officially released! Woot

Loaded the .apk on my Moto Droid running BB. It says the device isn't supported and won't stream but otherwise everything else seems accessible.
What do I change in the build.prop to see if I can get it to be viewed as another device?
Anyone get it working on a Droid?

I changed three lines in my build.prop. Just find these lines in your build.prop and change them to this:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
ro.build.fingerprint=tmobile/htc_vision/vision/vision:2.2.1/FRF91/277427:user/release-keys
Reboot, and that worked for me!
FYI, make sure it is exact, case and everything. Use Notepad++.

thx netflix on a phone is awesome!

Ok so I have less than 10 posts so i can't post to the forum i need to...Netflix apk...bunk but whatever...i have thunderbolt rooted running cyanogen 7.0.3 and installed the Netflix apk with no device check. It installed fine but when i open Netflix i get "there is an update for this app" if i hit cancel it closes if i hit ok it says it cnnt find the update and closes, can someone please pick this up and assist because the forums wont let me post to that thread trying to see if there is another apk file i should be using, I tried to edit build.prop with es file explorer and when I go to settings-root options-root explorer I select cyanogen mod from pop up it then says "test failed this feature cnnt run on your phone" any suggestions? Thanks

Even better, call me newborn all you want but installed liquid gingersense 1.0 through Tom manager and now can't get past home screen but home screen has no icons and no buttons function, I'm sure there's a way to do this but if the auto root mr1 will not recognize device connected how can i restore my phone to get it working?

Newb not newborn I apologize for autocorrect on my tablet

I think what JH2 is is a test firmware leaked by Samsung or at&t but still isn't ready and has a quite a few issues yet still not completely fixing GPS so I say just use a different firmware for now. That's what I am going to do at least, JM5 here I come again.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Doesn't JM5 come with it's own set of different issues? So far none of the issues I've seen with JH2 seem show stopping (unless you really need that tethering). I haven't personally tested JM5, but people's first comment on JH2 was that it was about equivalent to the latest i9000 ROM, and it has an advatage of being a full Captvate ROM and not being locked out of future OTA updates for us. It's too early to give up on JH2.

just checked Market Access app its not emulating any provider its set to ATT default 310410.
Also i am not having any issues with JH2 ROM everything flies and way faster and better than JF6 , GPS is still an issue but better than JF6.
I'm on my 6th or 7th reboot and still no luck. Has anyone rooted using one click root, then tried unleash the beast and can confirm they can find these apps in the market? Is it even possible to unleash the beast method, after one click root? Or would I have to one click unroot then unleash the beast?

I am running [STOCK ROM] I897UCJH2 (Captivate) with unleash v.2 and can see all the above except colberts under at&t or tmobile emulation.
Dont know if you need to reflash ROM to reroot using unleash. Did you get a ROM manager backup after you installed [STOCK ROM] I897UCJH2 (Captivate)?
Here is market access apk. i used on original ROM
Wow so AT&T is filtering political viewpoints. Wonder what Colbert would have to say about that.

I flashed JH2 on both of my phones. Ran UTB with both and only could see these on one of the phones. I still cant see Fandango one of them and I went back to stock firmware with the superoot access. I wasn't sure why and I still am not sure why.

Netflix for Android is out for a few Phones

But not ours!
I know that blows! I posted a thread in the themes and apps section and hopefully someone can port the evo version to our phone. Not sure if it is possible or not.
It's not like the phone isn't capable nor share a common drm library with its HTC counterparts. STUPID
Agreed. I'm trying to find the apk for the evo just to give it a shot. Netflix is really pissing me off lately!
I have the app already but it wont work

There's an apk posted on the Evo forum. I installed it and I get sound but no picture.
I insalled apk from Android app subfroum. Got sound no picture...goes back.to main menu after 2 seconds
Inspired from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
here are the files i have
i tried logging in and all and it was about to start streaming (loading screen) before throwing me an error saying its not supported on the device.
then i tried installing the com.netflix.... apk and it did the same thing :\
i'm on ARHD3.7
Does anyone else find it BS that our phone (QSD255 ARMv7) was left out even though it has a similar ARMv7 chipset to the Nexus One (QSD250 ARMv7)? I'm calling BS on Netflix's "DRM" comments.
Agreed.

in the PR they said it will be coming to most android phones soon so be patient =)
We are. I'm just calling bull on their DRM comments from the PR...

Netflix?

anybody got netflix working for the infuse? i tried the stock 1.2.0 and modded 1.2.0 before seeing that 1.2.1 is out and doesnt have device check anymore so it doesnt need to be modded but its still closing the program after i log in.
1.2.1 apk: http://db.tt/wDtOm1L
Yeah, I tried as well this morning with the same results. BTW just wanted to note my infuse is rooted.
Rooted infuse with no device check apk same result
tried. Installs fine, but closes after trying to sign in
I am able to sign in and utilize all of the apps features including navigating my instant queue, but it shuts me down when i try to play.

it only works with gingerbread on the hummingbird. on a snapdragon it works on 2.2 because quallcomm has a deal with netflix. i guess the drm support is different.

Thanks for the the 1.2.1 download. I was able to get the 1.2.0-No device check.apk version to install and launch. Everything but streaming is working (i.e. add to queue, search, etc.). One thing I haven't tried yet is to 'deactivate' one of my devices that I use to stream Netflix. Remember, you only get 6 unique devices at a time. I had to do this when I got my AppleTV2 and realized that between the xbox360's, blu-ray player and the multiple iphone/Pads in our house, that I had run out of activations (got a message that the ATV2 couldn't access Netflix Instant, blah, blah, blah... a similar one to what I'm getting when I try with the Infuse), so I deactivated the blu-ray and was able to use my ATV2 just fine.
Will post if this works.
deactivating devices doesnt make a difference. and i dont appear to be limited to 6 devices anymore, i now have 9.
What it's going to boil down to is to modify a gingerbread rom and most importantly a kernel to get it onto an infuse. That's the only way we're gonna pull this off.....
Or just wait. =]

Nope, not working. Someone said it works on the Acer Iconia A500.
Dude, you have to report if you got it working ! that looks like awesomeness =)
Maybe someone could try editing their build.prop to make it work? I purchased it on the market and it works on my Captivate. I saw a thread on the gameloft forums where it is working on Gtablets. I installed it on my Transformer but get the error message that it isn't compatible even though I downloaded the tegra 2 resource files and put them where they need to go. If a simple build.prop change could fix this that would be fantastic. I'm not rooted and left the cable at work so I can't root to try it. However if anyone rooted gets it working I will definitely be rooting. I was hoping that after purchasing it on my phone it would show up on my Transformer under uninstalled purchased apps but no go

no go. Tried the build prop from lg optimus and acer iconia tab. stil says device not compatible. I dont get why gameloft wouldnt make an effort to have this tablet ready on launch.I guess its honeycomb. Im so disappointed. I doubt they wil ever add tablet support. They are pretty lame with updates
oh how I want a fix for this. Until then I'll use my thunderbolt but this would be so much better on a 10.1 inch screen
There is an "AllDevices" version now available which install, updates and runs to a point.
I managed to create a new character and accept the first quest before getting a FC.
Haven't tried further so far but going to give it another go.
The screen doesn't seem to quite fit, a small portion appears to be lost at the top.
Managed to complete a few more quests before the next FC.
FPS looks sparodic and like I said the screen isn't quite right, some text missing from top of pop up windows etc, buttons take a couple of presses to register sometimes but all in all looks a good game and quite playable without the FCs.
nice, did a search for "all devices version" loaded my char up and I've had no isuues so far

The .apk is below, please report whether it works.

Samsung Galaxy S II.
And it only works on Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3), so no ICS yet using the official app.
There are also some issues with root and DRM begin not able to see some content.

Installs and runs on rooted galaxy nexus, however when you go to sign in, a message pops up saying sky go is not supported on this device. going to take a lot more trickery to convince it that its running on one of the other devices. Thanks for the APK though.
I've installed it onto my GS2 (Villian Rom 3.0 (2.3.5) rooted obviously) installs fine but will only play Sky News.. all over channels in my subscription just sit on the loading screen.
Sometimes a error flashes up briefly but to quick to see what it says.
As Sky News is a free to air channel this must be down to DRM restrictions on the other channels and therefore this is why its checking for root access???
Thanks for the upload, installs fine on my Nexus but then I cannot sign in, "unsupported device"
thanks for the file tried running it on my transformer, it installs loads in horizontal mode only and won't let me login as my device isn't supported yet! But its a start I suppose cheers
*waits for someone clever to "tweak" the .apk to make it work*
Wouldnt changing the buildprop to that of the SGS2 make it work?
I think thats what we will all be waiting for now, I just wonder who will be first, tweaked version from xda devs or oficial version for ICS from Sky.
I can't even download it because of root presumably.
Anyone know if it works on jailbroken iPhones?

Root blocking things on my desire HD. Not even sky news loading.everything gets stuck on 0%
yeah it works on jailbroken iPhones so blocking root makes no sense
"Not supported" message on my CM9 SGS2, eagerly awaiting some clever dude to tweak it!
As an added data point, stock Original Galaxy Tab, .apk from this thread, starts OK but blocked on login due to being an "unsupported device".
