Netflix Official App-Anyone tried on Galaxy S 4G? - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
I don't have the phone with my at the moment, so can't try.
Seems like it's very spotty as to which phones is currently works with.
Hopefully, someone can get it working on this phone soon.

Doesn't work. I've tried.

Bummer. Hopefully people will figure out had to adapt it to more phones shortly.

has anyone tried using SGS tools to change the model number to GT-I9020T?
I see that the apk works on the Nexus S

I will if you tell me how. I have SGS tools.

i changed the device to ro.product.model=Nexus S in the build.prop to spoof the netflix app but still receiving the device support error -__-

OK so I did that. It should work according to some other forums I read. I was able to download the app from the market.
For some reason when I log in though closes after I hit sign in.
Works fine on my g slate

Sucks to here this nice app did not work on that nice phone... it's a shame to see a low end phone like the G2 get it before the SGS4G ...
No issues here but I'm on a Nexus S 4G great quality on both 4G and WiFi ... I don't know if flash 10.3 has to do with anything ... Still it's a great app to finally have on Android

Rumors has it that Flash 10.3 has something to do with it, but it's also integration with the chipset itself that has a lot to do with it as well.

I guess I was one of those that skipped the netflix generation and went straight into online streaming. I use Amazon VOD for pretty much everything. No native video app those yet, just mostly use it on my google TV. I honestly don't watch TV or movies on my phone.

+1 on that. I tend to watch Netflix on my T-MoUS Galaxy Tab (just got it working on that platform) or my iPad if I'm remote and not at home.
It's really painful watching streaming video on my phone and I don't do that unless I absolutely have to.

Im currently in the process of testing a few things to get this to work on the GS4g. I was having the strange problem that the netflix app would go back to the home screen after I login.
I am editing the build props and trying a few other things out. So far nothing, but if I get it working I will post how to do it.

I did a little bit of research and it appears that we wont be able to use the netflix application at all unless we have gingerbread on our device.
So without a ginger rom we are out of luck, that is unless we find a workaround or they update the app anytime soon.
I came to this conclusion after looking through the Vibrant forums under the themes and apps section, they also are having trouble with the Application.

Hey guys don't forget the app was only released for certain phone models so most of us will probably need to use some work arounds.
Its working great on Tytung Nexus 2.7. If its not working for you, try this...
- Replace drmprovider.apk in system/apps with this file ( http://www.htchd2forum.com/android-...odes-android-app/?action=dlattach;attach=1284 ). It is the drmprovider.apk from the LG Revolution, which has the required restrictions for Netflix. (Don't forget to back up the original first, just incase).
- Change model name in build.prop to Nexus One (model approved for Netflix service)
- Install Netflix.apk from market (Link in post 1, old Netflix apps that have been floating around didn't work for me, just this one).
Restart phone and try it out! That did it for me, hope it helps on other roms. Good luck!
Props to poster of LG Revolution drmprovide.apk to the guys at htchd2forum, OP of this thread for Netflix.apk, my idea on the build.prop model.

Netflix workaround

I am a frustrated owner of a VZM Gtab and unable to use netflix, up until recently. I found an app on the market called Splashtop remote and it works flawlessly. The free version only lets you remote to your desktop for 5 minutes, but the paid version is on sale this weekend. The wonderful thing is it streams sound also. This app has got to be the best remote desktop software that I have ever used. I can stream my netflix for .99 cents, get it while it is on sale still. There is someone under reviews that says it runs so well he can play Aion on his phone, lol. I am in no means affilatiated with the creator of the app. I will attached a picture of full screen netflix being streamed from my notebook on my Gtab. Hope that will help some until we get an official Netflix app.

Hmm, it works pretty well. The only problem I have encountered so far is that it does not work very well on multiple monitor systems where the main monitor is not where the start bar is.

As I haven't been able to get any of the unofficial APK's of Netflix to run movies on my gTab, I was thrilled to see this solution and find it works! I just tried the Splashtop free version and it streamed perfectly to my Samsung Vibrant. Since the full version's on sale for $1.99, I think it's worth it even if just a stopgap until Netflix works on my devices directly.
However, the online market has my gTab grayed out and when I try finding it on the market app with my gTab, it does not come up in a search. Grr. I'd like to use this on my gTab until Netflix finally works directly on it.
I'm thrilled to be able to stream to my phone, though, still. Thanks for posting!

Touch optimized skin

To install it get it on your tablet somehow by either putting the zip on your sdcard or just direct download it then run xbmc and go into system\addons and choose "Install from zip" and find where you put it

I'm surprised as hell that you people are even trying to use it on phones at the moment
XBMC really is designed for tv use currently there are 2 touch screen skins (made by me again) but they still suck on something as small as a phone you really need a tablet at least for it to work half decent.
I guess its a gimmick factor for now that you can actually run it. But don't judge it too harshly unless your using it the way its meant to be on a TV

Yeah I know its just I've invested a lot of my personal time into XBMC of the years, and I hate the thought of anyone dismissing it just because they try to run it on a device that its not currently meant for and get met with a less than stellar user experience :crying:
Its part of the reason why we didn't just ship out apk's or put it straight onto the "Play Store" because its still got a lot of development to go before it really a daily use app. And everyone would just grab and install all the pre-compiled ones without even reading any informational posts about it and complain that its crap when really the main reason the source code is out is so other developers can help us make it lots better for the day it hits the play store
Thats just the way XBMC rolls :laugh: develop in the open and encourage other people to help make it better

Is the touch screen theme installed? I can get it to launch but I can't seem to control anything on my NookColor, was wondering if that might be the issue.
Also, where does the app store its settings? The .XBMC folder (in Linux) or the XBMC folder in applications data (on Windows) where the repositories addons and themes are stored.

Adobe Flash for ICS Leak

Alright as we all know Adobe is dropping flash support for Android starting with 4.1 (aka. Jellybean). They are even going as far as pulling flash from the play store on August 15. They specifically say though they will support flash for 4.0.x devices (which should include us). The problem is though flash does not work! Or at least embedded flash video does not work. This is not just a problem with the ICS leak, after spending a couple of hours scouring forums I've found that pretty much every Moto device on ICS is having this problem (including the Razr, Razr Maxx, and Bionic). As am sure with a lot of you flash was a large selling point for Android over iOS. Even though HTML5 is emerging, it is still in its infancy stages, and not many websites support it; most websites are still using flash. So I am creating this thread as a "work thread" to get ideas and solutions out there to get flash working on our phones.
I had a back up of adobe flash with tbu and it will not install at all. It just hangs. Its frustrating.

Kobo Arc

I don't know if I'm putting this in the correct place and if I'm wrong, I'm sorry. I haven't seen anyone talking about the new tablet the book company Kobo is about to launch. It seems quite good though? What do you think? http://www.kobo.com/koboarc
sent by me
Yeah it's quite fast, and very cheap.
What is a bugger is that without GPS it won't install a lot of apps from the Google Play Store.
And I hope someone here will root it, so I can make it connect to an ad-hoc Symbian WiFi tether... who knows what the future will bring..

Nice finally some activity about the Kobo Arc, I tried a few basic rooting methods but I've never really did that by myself before so I'm not sure how to go about it if anyone can find a root method it would be great! So far I really like the tablet for the price you really can't go wrong and I like to screen better the nexus 7

got one sitting in a box wrapped for Christmas. wife won't let me open it:laugh:been trying to get some more info on it on the MobileRead forums which has a Kobo section. for some reason everyone so far is having trouble getting flash to work. afaik flash should still be working on 4.0.4 and i would like to know if it is before i open the box. not fussed about GPS but would like flash working as i use apps like TVCatchup
I just read that the UX lead for Kobo has confirmed no OTG source
now I'm on the fence about getting it
It's still running 4.0.4. Wasn't otg not enabled on a number of devices with jelly bean

I don't think the android version affects whether otg is supported on a certain device. It depends on the hardware and software capabilities

Wow. Thanks for your replies. There isn't an Arc forum on XDA for me to post right? These thread is in the right place I hope?

I was given an Arc for Christmas. Nice piece of kit.
We will probably need more than 20 posts before getting a dedicated forum
For everyone else, I am also (half ass'd) working on a root for it...When time permits.
I right away installed go launcher for tablets and got rid of the stock "tapiture" or whatever they call it. Much more usable as a tablet now

Port our device to some nice third party firmware! I'd love to see CM10 running on our Arc. (I work for Kobo :3)
I do know our programmers are working on a 4.1 update sometime in January though. And yes, installing a launcher to disable tapestries and the discover bar really does make it a beautiful tablet. I personally use ADW launcher on all of my Android devices though. Looks great and it's quite fast.

Sony PlayStation Mobile - Soon Release

So Sony is releasing an app called PlayStation Mobile. It is currently available on Sony's website HERE for download. It will soon be officially released for the HTC One family (X and S mentioned for sure) soon. Our device (the whole HTC One lineup) (and other select few Android devices) is going to be officially supported meaning we will be "PlayStation Certified" (Sony's words).

Below are links confirming:

What games will be offered?
So far, just indie games are mentioned. Games that are seen on the PS Vita. Games are $1 - 5 (stupid?). Here is a link with some info:

Does this look good? Anyone plan on paying for these games once this service is released? It was just recently announced, thought I'd give it a share since our device is soon to be officially supported. Is this a new big thing or just a flop?
Don't understand this post. It's already live. Install the apk and enjoy. Am i missing something.
Read the articles... Sony is working with HTC to make the One series 'PlayStation Certified'. That's the main deal of this thread.
The idea is: does this mean anything or is it just **** Sony is introducing to get more cash? Or are these games actually console-like quality or just mobile rip-offs.

I get that, but it already has certification and has since the launch of the One Series, there just wasn't content available. Here are screens of it from my device, working.

I could be wrong, but I believe that it's not available in all regions.
Crashes on launch on my stock T-Mob One-S.
It's because its not officially released for us yet, check the device list it says details will be announced later, there's a flashable on xda android apps section and androidpolice for the certification and it works I already downloaded and tried a game, it will get better as time goes and the onscreen controller is cool

I don't get it, I post pictures of it working on my device yet everyone still claims it doesn't work LOL. All I did was download the apk directly from Sony and installed it. Guess I'm lucky, sweet!

Just flash xxpachaxx's Sony zip. I was expecting to see the actual PSN store. Hoping I could download my PS1 or PSP games for my phone. Oh well.

The one line was ready for it yesterday too, because I downloaded the application right after it was posted in the XDA app forum. No clue why your phone didn't work.
