Who wants Netflix? I got it! - Milestone XT720 General

I downloaded the netflix.apk that has been floating around, and with a few tweaks to my build.prop, I was able to get it to work on the galaxyXT ROM.
You have two choices, either download the attached build.prop file and stick in into your /system/ directory... or make the modifications yourself. FYI, please make a backup of the original build.prop before you mangle it.
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! If you have different experiences, please be sure to post them here.
FYI, If you make the changes yourself, make sure they are exact, case and everything. Use Notepad++.
Enjoy!

how/where do you access the /system/ directory? I looked on my SD card but cannot find.
thx

Not on your sd card.
It is in the /system/ Use Root Explorer or something like it.

It's in the phones internal memory, not on your sdcard. You would either need a file explorer with root access (e.g. Root Explorer) or you need to push it with adb.

tried using root explorer & it says the system files are read only...
Nevermind, clicked the R/W button & it allowed...
I'll try Netflix now after a reboot.

At the top of window while in root explorer you'll see a MOUNT R/W button, you need to toggle on read / write access.

Wow! Works Beautifully!
Wow! Works Beautifully! Thank YOU!

Work on Dexter's 1.3 too!

Sorry for the ignorance but what is it?

Streaming movie/TV service. Not everybody has it, but its a big deal for Android phones to FINALLY get it since iphone and Windows 7 phones have had it for a while.

I'm not sure, but there are several apk XDA of netflix, and other folders, I can not understand yet. Apk is installed, replace the buildprop and that would be enough? You may be able to give us the link to the apk please because in my market does not appear.
For the payment of subscription must be from the website or can be within the application?
The truth was unaware of this application, it looks very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

can someone share here the apk..tq

This is where I downloaded it from

Thanks for posting that. I couldn't remember where in the forums I had found it.

Hey I'm running stock 2.1 rooted on the xt720. I swapped out the build.prop you supplied in the .zip and installed numerous versions of the netflix clients to see if any would work. The apps installed fine but when I tried to open them (every single one) just opened to a black screen, then it force closed with a bunch of Japanese lettering. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Unfortunately
"Latest version: 1.2.0 build 819145-1.2.0-102 (for Android version 2.2 and higher)"

I got Netflix installed and everything seems to work. But when I hit play, it starts to load and says that I don't have a Netflix ready device. I have Dexter Froyo v1.3 on XT720. Anyone have this problem?

see 1st post in this thread....

once you install the apk, you need to do the hack rev explained in the 1st post.

New APK
Has anyone tried the new "stock" Netflix apk with the XT720?

I running the 1.20 APK, haven't seen an apk for the 1.21 yet, though I haven't gone looking yet either.

[Updates] JACHero / TwistedZero Co-Op OTA Updater (6/27/09 - 2:33AM EST)

After painstakingly researching into jfupdater, fixing a bad adt and sdk installation, and realizing that both the 1.1 and 1.5 sources could not coexist in one project, it is done. This program will work for JACHero 1.7 / TwistedZeroP and later builds. Due to the pre-work nature of TwistedZero, this will ensure that at least one of the system.zip archives is on the ext partition (it may not provide the most updated programs, but it will at least allow the update to be installed) You have the option to poll all updates, just JACHero, just TwistedZeroP or just TwistedZeroM. So far, only JACHero's updates will download because I am still working on getting mine on a dedicated server. I will try to keep as up to date as possible with download availability. Anyway, without any further stalling:
http://twistedumbrella.googlepages.com/heroupdater.ui.apk
Updating to the latest *working* version
You will need to have transferred the build.prop file to the /system/ folder of the phone for this to work.
They are available through my site's main page for my builds, and for now on my google code for JACHero until I get a new page coded for that.
Currently working on getting my builds program ready. Default update type is TwistedZeroP (can be changed in menu). Program is now a free download on market. Hero Update.
Very nice......
great job man

It will display downgrades if you either have a version it cannot detect that is compatible with the updates or haven't gone to the configuration menu and unchecked display downgrades
ace. i thought all the hero roms required a wipe before each upgrade so this comes as great news.
thanks

You're still gonna get wiped depending on the build.
it told me error while downloading what am I doing wrong...?
Very nice . This will truly make things easier. Nice work Twisted and Jac =).
So..I get a message when using update. The update app says "Your system is running an unsupported OS. (Version unknown) Please manually upgrade to JACHero 1.7 / TwistedZeroP or later and try again"
I understand its still a work in progress..just reporting my experience with the process.
Is "M" not a newer version than "P"?
I would assume, that even if the updater could not find an update for M, that M would still be a supported version and that it would just give me an error of not able to find an update for it or something. Not that M is unsupported.
FYI for all..I downloaded the files via the phone, installed linda file manager, android .Zip app(AndroZip) and AppsInstaller app. I Extracted the build.prop with and androzip, moved the file to /system/ on the phone with Linda, installed the HeroUpdater.ui.apk with Appinstaller. And then I get that message about an unsupported OS.
Great idea, thank you Twisted & JAC!
How do I use it? It shows me TwistedZero 1.7P as an update - can I just download it and then it will be installed?
No wipe or something like that?
an error occured while downloading 1.7P ?!

Did you reboot after copying the build.prop? Rebooting did it for me (seems like this file is read when the system comes up).
Do I replace the build.prop file I already have on my /system/ folder or do I not even need to worry about the build.prop?

Yes, the idea is that you replace it. The only difference between both files is a new reference to the build name (so the apk can tell what version you are on). Nevertheless it's always a good idea to back things up before you overwrite any files (learned the hard way throughout the years . So simply do something like 'cp /system/build.prop /sdcard/build.prop.old' from the terminal or 'adb pull /system/build.prop' from your computer before actually replacing the build.prop file.

Thanks alot..I should know by now about backing up system stuff. Anyways, I still can't get the Menu and at the bottom it says "Running Version:unknown". I used the JAC 1.8 build prop also. I'll leave it alone for now and see if anyone else on JAC reports bugs....thanks again Twisted! You are appreciated.

That would spare 20minutes of timewasting
How do you transferred the build.prop file to the /system/ folder of the phone? thanks in advance.

[DUMP] LG Eve

Credit goes to @pixeladdikt
Gonna go through and see if there is anything interesting, thanks Maxisma and pixeladdikt
edit: I thought when you downloaded something the estimated download time went down, not up
hope they have some specail apps inside
I've checked on ROGERS' pages and on LG's own one, apparently it runs LG's S-Class interface on top of standard Android, so there probably is some interesting stuff there.
Just saw some promo videos of it, very social oriented. Hopefully we can port it to Magic/G1.
There's some interesting things, about to install a video editor
Is this a 2.0 or 1.6 based OS?

when i 7-zip'd the dump it has a folder 3rd Party... this then has framework etc of the ArcSoft apps placed on the phone...
idk what to do with them... but would this be neccessary or even able to be added into a ROM to have these apks work?
I've gotten the keyboard working by pushing libxt_jni.so and libautohan_jni.so to system/lib and than installing the XIM.apk though adb.

as well the build.prop needs and update I believe to get the divxregistration apk installed.
confirmed the keyboard works with above method. good work, not quite as good as htc-ime-imo.

to get the arcsoft working a build.prop change is required. than you'll be able to install the apps.

2.2, Modded Flash version and Hulu

UPDATE: It seems that this only works on the 2.2 roms that are de-odexed... It doesn't work on the plain one that first hit. It is confirmed to work in the following roms:
Sky Raider 2.2 You can just use his flash installer app on the SD card
Sky Raider 2.1
Sky Raider 2.0
Sky Raider 1.9b
Desensitize Sky Raider 2.2 by jitajt
Not sure how many of you follow the other areas of the site or not... anyways, the guys over on the nexus one area have been enjoying Hulu on their Froyo roms for a while now. I've only seen a couple HTC Inc folks in the original thread so maybe people just don't know about it...
Big thanks goes out to rcxquake as he's the one that created the modified version of flash.
Original instructions for Nexus one are here
Modified Directions (i'll expand these out after I do it again tomorrow):
1) (this step is not needed on Skyraider 2.2 as the author has already removed the installer file for you, he has also included the correct version of flash on the SD card) remove flash from your install... most likely it is in the /system/app folder, I hadn't run any flash sites yet so I simply renamed the install_flash_player.apk to install_flash_player.apkb Here's a quick set of instructions for you:
1) Connect phone and enable debuging mode.
2) open a command prompt and go into your sdk/tools folder. run "adb reboot recovery"
3) in the cmd prompt type in "adb shell"
4) On the phone once its loaded up recovery in to partitions menu and mount /system
5) in the adb shell type in "cd /system/app"
5) to rename the flash installer type in "mv install_flash_player.apk install_flash_player.apkb"
7) in ADB tell it "exit"
8) on the phone unmount system and data (not sure if this is necessary or not)​Exit out of recovery and verify you don't have flash installed anymore under settings \ applications \ Manage Applications \ All applications.
2) Download the fixed flash version via rcxquake's thread to your pc and move it to your sd card(direct link to file)
3) Install the downloaded APK file via your favorite file browser (astro for example)
4) If you want to look at the full version of the website, you'll need to enable a special mode in the browser, here's the directions care of the original thread:
1. In the search/address bar of the android browser type "about:debug" without the double quotes.
2. Press Menu
3. Tap More>Settings
4. Go to UAString and change it to desktop.​5) If you want to access the site without setting up the debug mode listed above, Adam B was awesome enough to utilize the Hulu widget page to create a premodded app that you can simply click and watch. Here's his original post and here's a direct link to his APK.
SIDE NOTE If you run his Hulu.apk app, your lock screen will not come up after using it... to remedy this you have to kill it with a task killer... I have emailed him to see if this is something that could be remedied.
Anyways, I hope this helps some others get this going...
I tried this, and read through all of the Nexus One thread, and I still get "Hulu requires Flash Player 10.0.22 or higher. Please download and install the latest version of Flash Player before continuing".
Tried it in recovery (adb install), Astro, and AppInstaller. It shows up as installed in Application Management but doesn't load on any website. The only thing that there was to install (that I could find) was "install_flash_player.apk" in /system/app/.
Hulu and 2.2, its Christmas in July!
Having to manually kill the app sucks but it's hulu on my Droid!
Only other issue really is the border in fullscreen mode.
Btw the app works great, if you can't get it to work try a reboot.

Do you need the app? It sounded like about:debug should cover it, but it doesn't really answer why other pages don't load Flash.

Tried everything as well. Seems this version of flash doesn't play well on the HTC Incredible. Any chance someone can tweak this to get it working?
works well on the skyrider 2.0 rom only issue is i ave adfree and the hulu app can play cuz im blocking adds and the browser has no UAstring

Yea thats the file you need to rename "mv install_flash_player.apk install_flash_player.apkb" then your all good.
so far i've only tested on the sky raider one... at the end of the day yesterday we tried the same steps on the regular 2.2 rom on an additional inc someone had at the office (the original full leak) and were unsuccessful. I'm going to flash my phone over to regular as I have an issue with sky raider and syncing, I'll see what I can come up with on getting to work on that one as well.
Works!
Works great, I followed the instructions and was watching hulu in minutes.

So, what else is changed in the modded roms?

Asteroid, how did you get it working on the 8/1 leak? Did you simply remove install_flash_player.apk and install the modded flash player? I attempted to do so, and got the blue plugin icon on flash content.
I actually had a flash player installation backed up in Titanium that I had restored. I uninstalled that, just using regular old Uninstaller, and when I checked /system/app in root explorer, I didn't see any evidence of a flash install.
Then installed the modified version from Astro, made the "about:debug" changes mentioned, and we're up and running.
I'm not sure why, but maybe if you install the standard flash beta, uninstall it, then install the modified version that will work?

Hulu Plus not supported on Skyrocket...WAHT!

Not that I would pay for Hulu, but I watch their free content sometimes. This is a travesty.
yea I noticed this yesterday too...disappointing.
HULU works on the skyrocket........
just use one of the deodexed roms(like this one-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341616), which will let you edit the libs of the Flashplayer. use the Libflashplayer.so hack that is on xda replace it and give it the proper premission and BAM!!!! you got hulu
have been watching hulu on my phone since melvin dropped his first rom.
if for some reason you just cant manage to find the Hack i will post it up for you and give credit to the Dev.

I know that but what I consider stock is a ROM that hasn't been messed with at all.
I normally run Cyanogen Mod 7 but it's not available yet.
No, I don't like the crap bloatware apps.
Thing is, I will not die without Hulu and it's not enough reason for me to grab the first thing that comes along and install it.
I am actually enjoying the stock rom on this phone. Can't do everything I am used to but, I have to say that it's been pretty nice.
I will likely consider Cyanogen when it comes out for this phone but I am going to have to think pretty hard at this point. That rom has caused nothing but issues for me on multiple phones in regards to GPS which I rely on quite a bit. I know there are fixes and I got my GPS working after a lot of hassle on my Evo but never had success fixing it on my Inspire. Been nice having my GPS working without an issue on my Skyrocket. So... At this point, I just don't want to mess with the stock rom until I have a chance to evaluate it more.
My phone is rooted and that seemed to be all I needed to edit the needed files in the past but I guess not in this case.
Didn't Hulu come out recently and say they are supporting all Android devices now or was that Netflix?

I agree the Stock rom on the SR is great thats why im not even worried about not having 5 or 6 roms to choose from. i thinks its pretty nice as is. but i like to be able to edit certain files. and i think all you need it root explorer and you CAN edit pretty much everything on the phone.
but i didnt notice that you cant edit the build.prop, or the libs. i had to pull the build prop and edit on my comp and push it back.
and CM7 is a buggy nice little rom one of those things were you deal with the problems cuz its so damn nice. same with miui.

What did you change in the build.prop? The manufacturer, the model screen settings? I have done this on multiple devices including my Honeycomb tablet. My HoneyComb tablet (Acer A100) is running stock rom and I know I was able to edit the build.prop on that just using ES Explorer.
Let me know what to change and I will give it a whack, after backing up the build.prop file and making a nandroid

and your done

I did that, no luck. I double and triple checked the instructions. I did not do the stagefright thing or use the APK available.

I have it permissions specified in the post.
Yes, I am on Stock but I didn't see that running a custom ROM was required.
Thanks for the help.

It shouldnt be......
may i ask what files you are seeing in the Lib folder on the com.adaobe.flashplayer.
you shouuld have four files in there already right? i have seen it where it is empty sometimes and that means this wont work. ALSO if you unistall flash and reinstall flash 11 it repopulate the lib folder and i have had luck with this as well. once you get it will stick though. you wont have to this every reboot or anything.

thats the Internal SD....you have to go through Data/Data/Com.adobeflashplayer.lib/Lib<<<<you will find it in there.
but i believe you have to be on a DEODEXED rom....not the stock unless you know how to pull a lib file from the phone extract and edit. then push it back(this meathod is harder)

You also need root access. I used root explorer (from the market) to access the appropriate folder on my phone.

this is true, but even with root on the stock rom(odexed) i dont think you can edit the lib files.
im pretty sure.

updated S-Voice apk

For those who dont know, there is a new updated S-voice out that is currently working on most devices. I'm sure it'll be patched soon as well, and the need to change the build.prop will arise again. In the meantime, this one DOES work

Move to system/app, install, enjoy.
When was it updated? I got the download from the original thread yesterday afternoon.
How is it different to skyvi?

This was updated earlier today. Many users were having trouble with the previous build after Samsung blocked access to the application from other devices.

I'm sorry, I can't speak on behalf of that since I've never used it. Perhaps someone else in the thread can help you on that. My apologies.

Did you push THEN install?
I should also note that this app is only compatible with ICS 4.0+ roms.

I'm getting Force Close every time I tell it to do something that app oriented, I'm assuming it's looking for Samsung applications? I fixed permissions with in root explorer , is there something else I'm missing. Still think its kinda pointless lol. NVM some things work some dont, I sent myself a text but cannot set an alarm lol. this helped things though.

It made the S Voice working on my old Xperia X8.
I have permissions set to -rwxrwxr-x
I have permissions set to -rwxrwxr-x
I haven't a clue then lol, tried that as well, with no luck.
I copied that .so file from the .apk into the lib folder and it works now. It appears the only time that the app FC itself is when it tries to launch another app. I'm guessing probably because it is trying to look for the Samsung app.
Example - When I ask "Locate the nearest Mexican restaurant" or "What is the weather like today?"
U should link the the original thread so people can give credit where it is due and thank whoever ported it

hi, may sounds silly, but i'm new in the android game.
where do I find the "systems/app" folder that you mentioned? I'm on a Mac and using the USB Mass Storage, but I don't see the systems folder.
any help will be appreciated.
You're going to need to use ADB with cmd line to push it as far as I know or have root enabled file explorer like ROM Toolbox and you will see system when you're in it, this app never worked when I pushed it to system for me just installed it like a normal app and rebooted phone

Yeah I had to just install it regularly on the first release I got, but on this one I had to move to system. I used Solid Explorer.
