Let's not derail this thread based on the version of Android OS.. Android OS version is not the issue.. it is the HTC Sense version that is incompatible.
I have verified Netflix works with many GB based ROM for the Evo (Sense 1.0, MIUI, CM7, Decks, Stock AOSP) EXCEPT Sense 2.1 and above I haven't found one of these that it works on.. (Shift Ports, the Kingdom ROMs etc)
@skydeaner have you made any progress on determining if it is possible to get it to run on Sense 2.1 and above? I am running Evolved Shifted RC1.1 and really enjoying it, but can't make it my daily driver until Netflix is working on it.

+1 on that bro

Is it possible this will be cleared up for us when the OTA Gingerbread update for the Evo goes through on June 6th? (See news on Engadget and confirmed by Sprint)
I know that the Netflix apps compatibility was not universal, but a major update like that should move Netflix to quickly update the app to be compatible, especially considering that the Evo was one of the launch units for the app.
Of course, it could also be an inborn issue with the leaked 2.1 that all the Sense Gingerbread Roms are based on that would actually need a fix, at which point the OTA won't help anyone... But that's for smarter people then I to fix.

It works on virusrom gingersense with sense 2.1

Have you flashed anything special to get it working? I ran that ROM for a while and it never worked for me.

It would appear that virusrom gingersense is based, at least in part, on sense 3.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036706) which may be the reason it works. The Netflix issue seems to be specifically with sense 2.1 which was based on a leaked version of the Evo's official gingerbread build (which should be available as early as today in its OTA form).
I wonder if someone else with more knowledge would be able to isolate which part of sense 3.0 is compatible with Netflix that isn't compatible with 2.1 and be able to port that component over to all the 2.1 builds to enable Netflix. Or if the simple availability of the official 2.1 from the OTA will enable the Netflix issue to resolve itself...

I used a few of Virus's Sense 3.0 ROMs (actually I used all the beat releases he put out) and Netflix didnt work on any of them for me. i tried the stock apk and both modded ones. no dice on any of them. strange.

You are correct in that I am speculating. However, considering that the sense 2.1 being used in all these Roms was from the leaked gingerbread for the Evo, I'm assuming that HTC/Sprint didn't abandon 2.1 in this final OTA version. Although they very well may have...

Thanks s0calstate0fmind for clearing that up. Could you confirm what version of Sense the OTA is going out with?

It would seem from this page of peoples experiences with the OTA that the Sense version is 1.0 mixed with certain elements from 2.1. Unlucky for us, it seems that the elements from 2.1 that they chose to include were the same ones that don't work with netflix, as people are reporting that the app has stopped working for them.

The race is on now to see who fixes the issue first, the awesome devs here at xda or the HTC/Sprint/Netflix folks....

If that is true how come it doesn't work on the OTA update from today which is running Sense 1.0?

Haven't tried on the official OTA (obviously because at the time of my post only the "Leaked" version was available) I did try it on the stock rooted leak version of the GB release (from TMartin I believe) and it did work for me.
It is official however that the GB OTA Update broke NetFlix on the EVO. NetFlix is aware of the issue and has removed it from the Market and expect a fix in the "near future" (their words).

I'm sure you've heard already, but the OTA is Sense 1.0, but hopefully the devs can work with the official Kernel to work some magic on the Sense 2.1 GB ports..

My wife is watching a movie on netflix now on the TV so I can't test the upgraded netflix app's streaming (we can only stream on one device at a time...). Can anyone confirm if this did indeed fix the issue either with the OTA (sense 1.0 with some 2.1 elements) or the leaked Gingerbread based sense roms (running sense 2.1 or 3.0)?
The Netflix app now lists Evo with 2.2 and 2.3 as compatible devices in the Android Market.

I'm on version 2.1 and have netflix

2.1 SDK Released

I'm sure y'all devs already know this http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/01/android-21-sdk.html , but just in case ..If so mods please delete this
It is including the Sapphire's drivers?
Confirmed.
Downloading ...
Nice.. hope there are 2.1 roms to come that have camera, bluetooth and every thing working
Now if only HTC will release their 2.1 ROMs to Hero/Sapphire soon... Sense + 2.1, that'd be awesome.

You won't get working camera's until HTC releases the drivers, this has nothing to do with the SDK... now... to just get HTC to let us have them...

** Gingerbread 2.3 Source Code released by Google!

here's the Engadget article...
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/17/android-2-3-gingerbreads-source-code-now-available/
this feels like an early xmas
Just saw the same article and came over to XDA to make sure they knew YAY!!
I'm so excited for Gingerbread on the Aria
Quick Question, when a DEV gets working on this, how long typically to ROMS take to get to a beta or v1.0 stage?
We are going to be working with cyanogen to bring gingerbread to the aria. There will be no Liberated rom for gingerbread because I doubt htc will make gingerbread for the aria. Since htc version uses their own sense software we have no way to port gingerbread to htc version. Cyanogenmod 7 hasn't been started yet. So there is no eta at this point.

Looking for Sense 3.0 HTC Messaging

Wondering if sense 3.0 sms is available for BAMF 1.8? Sounds like the options Im looking for are in this update and would like to know if its been worked and available to install yet?
I checked, but didnt find anything.
Thanks for the time -
I don't think any Sense 3 functionality has been ported to the Froyo based Bamf ROMS. Just jump to Bamf 3.0 RC4 and you will get GB and Sense 3 full. Make sure you flash the MR2 radio as well since you will be going to GB. The Verizon OTA version is available for download and is your best option.

Stock Gingerbread Rom?

Hey Gentlemen,
I've been looking all over to see if anyone has developed a completely stock Gingerbread Rom. I'm tired of sense and just want some fast & simple vanilla android. Does anyone know of a Rom for it or if its in development ?
Thanks
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
havnt seen any yet but you might as well wait for CM7 like everyone else
CM7 - it's like stock Android, but better
Swyped from my HTC Sensation
Very cool, will do. Thanks.
Any word on a release date or if they've even started working on it?
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/ is going to be the best place to wait and watch.
Personally hoping for just a straight up AOSP build. To customize off of. Just have to wait and see.
where can i find a stock gingerbread but with sense 3.0 lockscreen rom?

nowhere. the sense 3.0 lockscreen relies upon sense. and right now, there aren't any "working" (read: daily driver-able) AOSP based builds working/released.

[Q] leaked sense 3.0 ruu for inspire 4g

hello,
I am looking for a leaked sense 3.0 ruu.exe for the inspire 4g. I don't want a custom rom. I saw somewhere a ruu for sense 3.0 on my inspire. I have googled everywhere and can't find it. can someone please give me a link to it. thanks.
As far as I know there is no leak for the Inspire 4G. Closest we have is the 2.3.5 release for the Canadian Telus Desire Hd our identical twin.

Yeah I believe gene was/is working on it.

He is, was, and it is working well. But although it is the Sense 3.0 ROM that the inspire should get, it is still not a RUU.exe and you will need a rooted phone to install it.

haha, I really need to stop assuming everyone is rooted on XDA
for your informatiion I have rooted my inspire before, but I don't like it because the sense roms aren't any good. zooming in the browser is buggy. I liked miui wp7 themed, but.... it's just. and all the ics roms aren't fully... which I understand, because it's something new and people have to work out all the bugs. but still my captivate i was constantly flashing roms, but I've messed up imei on it. and when I go to cm 7 it's fast but I end up missing sense. and I would love to have sense 3.0 or sense 3.5 rom, but they are buggy. the zooming in the browser isn't great. and memory runs out.
Well if you are rooted there are many Sense 3.0 and 3.5 ROMs on this forum. I am using the WCX Sense 3.5 v2.7 ROM and I experience nothing of what you speak. It looks like stock but is highly tweaked.
But as MMM-BACONSTRIPS mentioned, Gene Poole has the most stock version of the 3.0 Sense ROM available. It is closest you are going to get to what would be the stock 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 for the Inspire.

You can't botch up the efs partition on these phones without deliberately clearing the memory of the efs partition.
A Sense 3.5 ROM can be very quick if it's built right.
