I, for the life of me, can't get the Evo 4G to start the Netflix app correctly. It shows a white screen, and then after a bit of time it throws a message saying
"Error : Please make sure the device's date and time settings are updated to the current date."
It's operating on the auto-time, and no matter what I do - reboot, re-install Netflix, etc - I still get that error. I can see it transferring data - so I am not sure what this means. I even tried flashing back to my stock ROM, the backup I have right after I rooted the phone - and it still doesn't do it (I was running Azrael's 4.0 sense rom prior).
I've seen other folks mention this - has anyone else run into this or figured out a resolution?
+1 same issue here running Calkulin 1.8

It seems like each phone has a different issue. I don't have an evo, but I'm working on ironing out the issues, unless Netflix beats me to it. I haven't seen this issue yet. Could you provide a logcat from right before starting Netflix up.

I was having the same problem with my wife's Evo including the error message. I went and resynced everything and after that Netflix started working. Hope that helps.
Mine plays but has no sound?

I'm having the same issue as the original poster -- re-installed, rebooted, cleared cache, still no luck. Novice smartphone user, so everything is original equipment, no rooting, etc.

I'll try - gimme today to fiddle with it, never messed with logcat, so I'll need to learn what to do with that.

Attached is a ZIP that has logfiles for just netflix activity from starting it up to closing it out, as well as another file that has all entries during that same time period. Also, here's the logs surrounding Netflix:

well now it works....
With Android Market, I updated Adobe Flash to 10.3 (as well as Youtube and Google Maps updates), and now it works. Right before that I also resynced everything (but that didn't do diddly).
So I don't know if the Adobe Flash update fixed it. I could try removing the update and re-running Netflix - but that's what *seems* to be my case at first glance.
My girlfriend's Evo is doing the very same thing - and hers is stock and unrooted (brand new, just purchased yesterday) - so when she gets home tonight, I'll try the same thing - update to Flash 10.3, and see if her Netflix then runs correctly. I'll follow up with results here afterwards.

Just want to verify..
Are you getting the "device not supported" error?
Or are you getting a black screen?
Or does it work?

Nope, I was getting the red Netflix logo, then a white screen and a message saying I should make sure my date and time was correct, then it'd exit (I'm the OP).
What fixed it for me was strange - I updated my Adobe Flash to 10.3 (as well as Google Maps and Youtube updates) and then it worked. Mine was a custom ROM (Azrael 4.0).
My GFs Evo 4G - had the very same issue - and hers is stock, unrooted - brand new. I tried updating her Flash to 10.3, also did a update to her Maps and Youtube - and it *didn't* fix it. That is, until she rebooted her phone, and let it sit for about 10 minutes and tried once more - then it worked.
It seems really odd that there'd be a wait time that would make it work - maybe it's something network related (with their network), or just a crap shoot. Dunno, but we're both working now.
Anyone who can actually get it to work (getting it to work defined as actually streaming audio and/or video without crashing ever) able to post their logcat file right before and during the first few seconds of streaming?
Would prefer logs from htc devices since that's what I have, but any would be appreciated.
I'd just like to compare it to the logcats showing errors. If audio/video quality is not perfect on your device for netflix, please note that so it can be factored in.
I found a reference to drm.play in /system/lib/libstagefrighthw.so compiled library for some of the htc sense 2.3 roms. Not sure how relevant it is at the moment since it's just a error message string.

I remember that now (and thats what the title says). Jumping through different threads starts getting me confused. I'm not able to use flash 10.3 or 10.2 on my phone, so hopefully I can work around that. Could you post another logcat now that it is working?
Have flash 10.3, Netflix starts, I select a movie and play it. It switches to the red load screen, then flickers and goes back to the Netflix home menu screen....won't play the video....

I had this problem on my Asus TF300T tablet running Android 4.2.1. After clearing the data, removing all updates for the Netflix app and updating again, the issue was still there. It turns out that Netflix is very finicky about the network you're connected to. Mine has two routers: one for the wired devices and one for the wireless devices. The gateway is on the wired router and the wireless router goes out through it. Some posts advice to run a WAN test on the router and that's when I realized that the internal tools in the wireless router do not have access to the internet, although every wireless device connected to it has internet access, including my tablet in question. I switched the operation mode on the wireless router from router to access point. That fixed the Netflix sign in problem for me.
If you find that nothing works for you at home, try connecting somewhere else. If you have specific DNS servers in your (Android) network setup try without them.

Anyone know of an app which tells what app is using cpu the most? Some like task manager for windows?
I think Elixir (try Elixir2) shows that. I'm not that sure.
EDIT :
on description it says :
- displays running processes / services / tasks: pid, cpu usage, memory usage, total cpu, network traffic, view logs of a process, kill background processes, batch mode
System tuner
Exlir was bit too much for me, only need cpu checker will try 2nd app
Or you can just use *#*#INFO#*#*. I use System Panel / Task Manager btw.
Thanks i use that code but not what I was looking for will try task manager
Hi
Is there any process/ task/ performance manager for Android that would show some stats like proc load (not frequency but load), memory (disc) load, network load... Something like default Task manager in windows 7, including resource monitor. All I can find only show frequency, used/ free space, mostly useless data.
I like system tuner pro. They have a free version as well.

Hello
I use a small and simple
application that allows you to modify
request and response header,
manipulate URL to bypass your
restricted internet access called android simple server that i found out on some indians forums . But the problem: this app
closes automatically when I
install any other application or
when I run multiple apps
simultaneously, I tried to do
everything to keep this app in memory but it
does not work so I wonder if
the problem is not related to
the settings because there is a
box that I ignore (set buffer
size) I do not know how it
works to fill this value .
hy guys its my first time post ok sorry for my english beacuse its not my native language
guys i wanted to ask i installed android revoloution on my sensation it is good the thing i wanted to ask is that is there any way to increase gpu performance in games so it can play gta san andreas without any lagg and other games beacuse i love playing games
Maby you habe to less ram availeble? Try to kill all apps , and retry

if you have a custom kernel you can do it
do this
put this line in system->etc->init.qcom.post_boot.sh file with any file manager which has root rights and mounting system as writable(such as es explorer)
echo the value > / sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk
for value you can set 26666666 or 30000000 or 32000000
probably as default is set to 266mhz so you can raise it but i suggest do not set 320mhz because it will drain the battery faster especially when playing games
then reboot the device
my sensation can be overclocked to 320MHz, i ran a stability tester and came back fine. However i dont play any games on my phone, so 266mhz would be a better choice. Im not sure if the clock speed is thottled down when not in use? If it does thottle down, set it at 320MHz, and it will ramp accordinly.
