Can't see that happening with Captivate's processor, despite the fact that they are used in other handsets; we don't seem to have the wherewithal to satisfy Netfix's DRM scheme.
I would love it if someone would post a link to the .apk to be able to 'test' compatibility...

Just go to the web market, it's there.

the web market shows it grayed out for both my xoom and my captivate.

I have the apk from a while ago, march 11th I believe... it works, but playback fails saying it's an unsupported device.
Gotta be a way to spoof it!

I downloaded the app in the "Themes and Apps" section. Its running great under Perception II beta 3.

It runs under continiuum 5.4 without a problem.

just downloaded it from the themes and apps forum thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076171
works great on MikeyMike01's GR-12 with TalonDev kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055622

Yup its working on the captivate much to my delight.

Doesn't work on CM7 for the captivate

You need to edit your build.prop. Go to the Netflix thread in Themes and Apps to see how.

I could be wrong but I think that is because CM7 is not a JVB or JVH official samsung code release. Those of us running actual Samsung code look like Nexus S devices to the netflix app.

Sweet, the apk I had was old! I am running the new one streaming Netflix w/ Subpression 3.2!

Thanks, that did it!
However now all the apps think I'm on a G2. And swype won't work.
Could someone that's on a 2.3 Samsung rom with netflix working post their build.prop file?
Thanks again.

It seems that GB roms running as a nexus s in the build.prop can access playback. Anybody got a quick way to edit that file and directions on what to change for people with cyanogenmod?
EDIT: Doh, I'm an idiot. I should read the full thread before commenting. Thanks guys.

I tried it on cm7 with the build.prop spoofed to look like an HTC Vision and when it plays a video, there is no image, just sound. Any ideas?

Same.
My guess is that it is because CM lacks all of the codecs which you get with the official samsung roms.

I sideloaded it but it doesn't work on stock froyo. Another checkmark on the list to update to Continuum...

[REQ] XT720 2.2 Froyo ROM ideas & wish list

wat nid to imporved in xt720 froyo is:

- stock oc to 1.1ghz (battery life can extended by setcpu)
- DEfy's stock music player

with a locked bootloader, any customization of partitions or kernel is not an option. although some think that the kexec solution is good, its still not working with radio enabled, so who wants a phone without phone functions.
Alright, since people obviously want to put their own ideas out there for this, and since I feel dexter shouldn't be bugged right now, I've decided to open this thread as an idea list, just for suggestion, and depending on how well dexters success is with this phone, maybe we can cook up something good.
I'll start of by saying I feel that porting cyanogen mod would be the best thing we can do, and to stay away from blur, it eats ram like candy, and we already have a ram problem xD
I say no against CM. Let's get 2.2 first and then see if we can get more roms, like 2.3 for example. And Blur shouldn't be on the priority list, but at least on the list as a spinoff. Dexter has done a few roms for the Milestone 1 too, including 1 with Blur as a spinoff.
perfectly working notification lights, better camera app.
the rest of the wishlist is already inside 2.2. So, I'd leave Dexter alone

I think with the locked bootlaoder you need a Motorola signed kernel so I'm not sure how realistic a gingerbread port will be.

Cyanogenmod 7 for Harmony Released!

Though not specifically listed for us, CM7 for harmony was released along with the other builds today. It looks and runs great so far, and the Tablet tweaks work really well, I like having the buttons in the bottom left personally. I haven't had alot of time with it, but I have yet to spot anything out of place and it runs great so far.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=harmony
There are a few bugs in the keyboard as numbers do not show up properly. Everyone should thank Bekit as he's really pushed CM7 for the G-Tab and spent a ton of time hacking away at code.
::edit::
Nevermind, their Wiki site is just screwed up showing out of date links. http://mirror.cyanogenmod.com/get/update-cm-7.0.0-Harmony-signed.zip

Do you know if it supports location-by-WiFi?

Thanks.
I was running this since beta and rc and its more bug free than ever. The stock keyboard does suck on a tablet. The best one is SwiftKey for tablets. Go to their website and sign up for vip and you can dl the beta.
Now that we are running cm, can we start using rom manager and whatever version of cwm it installs or is that still a problem for g tabs?
MC
Been running this for about a week now (clearly not the stable as it was JUST released) and have been really happy with it.
Side note I do hate the keyboard as it is just a little small (for me but i have big hands).
I do hope this version fixes the DSP Manager FC issue. I was going to install the nightly yesterday which had the fix but never did get around to it.
I'm assuming this is entirely different from this

Well, it's exactly the same thing... the mod murdock was working on has been merged into the mainstream CM... to quote murdock
Code:
Mod has been merged to CM7
The first part of tablet tweaks has been merged.
It will be in each official cm7 nightly build now starting with nightly 37 onwards... even phone users will have parts of the tweaks in their options

I am under the impression that this release is specifically targeted for the G-Tablet. If you notice when the little android screen comes up it says click here to set up your G-Tablet.

Right now, it most probably is. Let Harmony devices get rooted before the Harmony Release gets traction and "neutralization"
Very sweet...
Overall feels very responsive and smooth (though that could be from the data/system/cache wipe before installing).
WiFi location works very well.
Tablet Tweaks is a nice addition as well as the standard CyanogenMod Settings.
Notification swipe for the Power Widget is nice.
Haven't looked at the themes or profiles yet.
how long do ya think it will take to have the nvidia files merged into gingerbread roms? cuz the poor playback is a definate deal breaker for me but i would love to run cm7
Recovery?
Has anyone else had any issues in getting into CWM after installing this?!? I cannot at all get to recovery. It just boots straight into CM7.

Netflix

They finally released Netflix for android..but its only for the g2, nexus one and s, evo, and a couple other phones. I just sold my g2 so I'm a bit jealous. Is it possible somebody can hack the apk?

Here is the apk compliments of the EVO 4g forum.
The app installs and you can log in to your Netflix account, but you cannot play videos, it tells you your device is not supported. If possible we will need to remove the device check.
Doesn't work for me. Just flashes and crashes.
Damn. Just saw the news story about this. I was hoping to come over here and find an APk that worked. Oh well... soon I hope.
I read elsewhere on this forum it has to do with netflix only wanting it on the ARM processors. we may not ever see it on a tegra2 device which is a shame because id use that alot
I wonder if this is any different than the older version i have
I know streaming doesnt work but i wonder if any other changes were made

My mistake that may be the case but the thread i found the APK pointed out it was specific to caertain phones and processors like from HTC
HTC and Samsung Nexus S according to the list of Netflix enable android devices on the Netflix site.
I tried the .apk on my G2x running stock 2.2. It immediately closes unfortunately.
This was already discussed in the G2x forum a few weeks ago because I posted the APK.... The app is only compatible with Qualcomm chipsets.
Has anyone tried on CM7? They use a different kernel so it may fool the app into working.
I do think it is funny though because originally they said Netflix wasn't coming to the Qualcomm sets because they didn't support DRM or something on a hardware level and looked forward to the Tegra 2 chipsets for their main chipset.
Now the Tegra 2 chipset is out they are all of a sudden saying "Oh we're going to support the Qualcomm chips".
In all honesty it is just them being picky and not allowing streaming. If they wanted to be simple they could just open up their website to allow streaming via Flash.

I believe wifi tabs have different hardware then 3g ones. Build prop could be one fix but I think there might be a hardware check or something that is preventing video for some.

SO i take it, Netflix only works on GSM overcome Roms...Sprint tab rooted with original Rom does not work. The screen just disappears when you log in. SMH at Google. To many software/hardware versions for any company to make a app right.
i ment in like australia..
Works fine with the new Gingerbread ROM on Tmo US.
another +1 on overcome 2.0 (2.3.3) i havnt had much time to test but it loads and plays. ill see in the next couple days how it works without wifi. at home it seems to be all well.
comming from technomancer's cm7 port overcome is MUCH MUCH smoother, cleaner, faster and has none of the issues i used to have with cm...but thats what you get with ports that arent updated regularly. the older overcome worked well, but i chose cm7 because of the settings and such, and back a couple months ago there wasnt THAT big of a diff (and cm is whats on my g2...so i thought id prefer it) now after using the latest 2.0 i cant believe how well this tab functions now.
so, netflix made me switch roms, and it works!!...but i got a bonus surprise with how well overcome really is.
very good day for my tablet!
Works perfectly on my us tmobile tab with overcome beta 1 and 2.3.3! Picture quality is very crisp. Streams with no lag
Works so well that I was on the phone with netflix yesterday and was telling the guy on the phone about it, info on 2.3.3.
and the the netflix app in his email got me 6 free months of service via coupons.

Yup, same on CM7 b73 and RCMix 6.1.0.1. Worth a shot, though.
Awesome...I clicked multiquote and nothing happened.
I'm on GingerBeast, and works for me. Not sure what's up, as this was being used on a different phone. I'll update the OP to reflect this. :-( I'm sorry guys.
Sound no video on coredroid 6.3
I'm not a dev, so don't flame me for asking these questions...Just trying to figure this out so we can all enjoy this..
Have Flash Player installed? I do. Not sure if that makes a difference...

Yup, 10.3 installed from market right before the attempt on both CM7 and RCMix for me.
Backup your build.prop file and try this.

Yup latest version, 10.3 I believe. I wonder if anyone else running gingerbeast like you can get it to work.

As dumb as this may sound, I have to rely on someone else to try this method and report back. I'm "uptime" testing a Rom, and can't reboot. :-(
And also, 6 minutes and 23 seconds into Top Gear, and it just crashed on my phone...So it's officially not stable on my Rom either. :-(
**Mods, because this is not stable, can this thread please be merged with the one posted by gunnyman in General?
Well no luck running RCKingdom v0.2 and doesn't play at all but lets you browse. Sill early, I'm sure some dev will get it working in no time.
Here's to wishful thinking!
Inspire 4g on CoreDroid 6.3 with latest LeeDroid Kernal. Sound but no video. Even though it's half functional, I'm just happy the app is finally out instead of them ***** footing around release dates. Soon enough we'll be golden.
I'm running leedroid 3.0.3 and I'm still getting the white screen of Doom
I just tried it in gingerbeast and it doesn't work. I shows a black screen for 13 seconds and then it does back to the movie list.

Did anybody get it to work using this build prop?
I tried using the HTC Vision build prop and no dice.

I just made the edits, doing a double reboot now, I'll post results
EDIT: No go gents. Still no video
Does not work with build.prop edit and 2 reboots and with flash 10.3

Is there such a thing as a resource monitor for Android? I ask this, because my room mate has the Captivate, and it works fine. Always. Maybe witha monitor of some sort, we could see what resources are being used on the Captivate -vs- the Inspire and kinda compare from there?
Obviously these are two different phones, but the general concept of functionality should not be too far off.

Top gear is by far the best show on TV. Btw I'm running aosp rc1 and video and audio worked for about 15 seconds and now nothing

The room mate and I are gonna try to crack this case tonight! The plan is very stupid, but whatever. haha.
The basic principle of functionality should be equal clean across the board. It has to be the lack of a file or files that is preventing this. The hardware itself is VERY capable of working. This leads use to our conclusion...
I already had drmprovider.apk in my system folder, but did not have drmua.apk.
Tried adding this file and no dice.
Basically, if I already have the file, it will remain untouched. Anything else will be merged in, until it either works, or crashes the phone. I DO NOT SUGGEST OTHERS TRY THIS. I personally don't care, because I have insurance, under warranty, etc.
If we make any progress I will keep you all informed. And well...If I brick my phone, then I'll see you all in a few days. haha
