Not sure if this was mentioned (didn't see it on the first couple pages of posts), but Netflix has updated to V.1.4 and now says it supports all phones running Android 2.2 and 2.3. I installed it via the online App Store which showed my Infuse as a supported device. I know we've had Netflix unofficially for some time, but it's nice to have an official install now!
Cheers!
it was on the market since 1.3 i thought.
I've had official Netflix from the market since I purchased the Infuse.

IIRC, 1.3 was the first version that was released for download on the App store and not an OTA release, but it still didn't support all phones.
I know we've been able to run Netflix on our Infuses for sometime now thanks to the .apk being available to download here (I've had it on my Infuse since a week or so after i got it), but I was just mentioning that the official version for all Froyo/GBread phones/Tabs is available now as per Netflix's announcement.

Not sure what the version number was. But there was an official Netflix update on the Market last month that made Netflix work on the Infuse.

Is anyone talking about this in the Captivate forum? Could this mean our update is soon? Anyone plan on porting it over?
I don't think it would work. cdma vs gsm, etc.

Anyway it was 2.2.1, not 2.2 as leaks.
Might be our official froyo also 2.2.1?
The galaxyssupport on twitter has been consistent in saying these updates will be out before the end of december. I was in doubt but now I am confident that we well see captivate update soon.

I "thought" it was on one of the blogs I follow (IE.. Engadget, Gizmodo, AndroidandMe, and Androidspin)
Well at least it means our phones should (keyword being should) follow soon with a new Froyo update.
Surprised that they were first to get it... and that it was 2.2.1!
Can we maybe dissect the url to find our update url when it becomes active? Here's the utal and my projected path...
http://android.clients.google.com/p...0/1506bdf2e04b.update-SPH-D700_DI18toDK28.zip
What I have reasoned thus far: ("?" Indicates what I don't know)
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/at&t_samsung_i897/ ? .update-SPH-I897_JH7toJK??.zip
Could someone look up the JH7 update url and look at the url path between "...samsung_i897/ and .update..."? Hopefully it would be the same...
[edit] after looking at my signature from this app, the "SPH"'s above might actually be "SGH" ...

Unless I am mistaken, bluetooth voice dialing is not a native function of froyo, it is included in a google app that is only compatible with froyo. As with all google apps, carriers can choose whether or not to include it. If it is not pre-installed, it can be downloaded from the market.

Trust me, it's not Froyo. As has been stated a ton of times, it's just AT&T sending out batches of update texts for the 2.1 previous upgrade.
I bought an app while my phone was stock, NFS Shift. After updating to EA-11 then EB-16, I thought maybe waiting a few days would make my app show up but it hasn't. I logged into the market on my laptop and it shows that i indeed have paid for the app but my carrier is SeaMobile. WTF!!!!!! I'm lost here. After some suggestions found out in the wilds of the web, I went and looked at the /system/build.prop file and it says uscc in there so whats up? Is anyone else experiencing this? I am really confused by this. The market says SeaMobile isn't a supported carrier. I have bought other apps while on ea11 and they showed up
I've noticed that market thinks the phone is no longer compatible with the NYTimes reader, but that's the only issue I've had. I don't think it said I was another carrier though?
Mine did the same thing. I heard the desire did something similar after the official froyo too. Not sure if it still does our not. I'd guess it has something to do with the way google reads our firmware since it's not official?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just realized that it says SeaMobile for me too. Weird..
Has anyone found a fix for this yet, I'm really stumped? I'll pay, beg, and or humiliate myself if it gets this fixed. Lol, seriously though I will do whatever it takes.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I've noticed this too... Paid for NFS: Shift and Tetris when it was on sale and now I can't get them back since upgrading. Even after I downgraded back to Eclair, I couldn't get them back. Oh well. It is what it is, and I'm out $2. No big deal I suppose.
This is happening on both builds. The build.props are both correct for the market. The only thing I can think, is that these aren't supposed to be available yet so the market doesn't recognize the phones. I'm going to try a few things tonight.

Thanks for doing some digging Phidelt. Like I posted earlier there were a lot of people having similar issues when the official FroYo release came out for the desire. I think its just google being slow about updating the market to recognize the phones.

Glad to see that others are having the same issue. I had a feeling it was due to the "leaked" signature.
I haven't been able to find Bejeweled 2 and a few other new apps because the market thinks I am a Seamobile phone.
Umm it was showing SeaMobile when I was on stock 2.1
It isn't a bug, USC just isn't that well known.
Also as for NFS Shift, I bought it when it was on sale and I just upgraded to EB16 and had to factory reset.
NFS Shift can no longer be purchased because of some legal thing with Verizon.
Also people who did purchase it could not re-install it and had to repurchase it for 10$.
A bunch of bull if you ask me.

it appears to be one of those high quality game loft games. they code games for the hardware and they may check the build.prop for compatability, so even a compatible device might not play the game if they havent added the device to there supported list. if it is in the market it may work if it is gameloft website only you may need to register the phone number and claim what carrier you have, they haven't really been supporting att devices for some reason, i didnt have much success downloading there games by anyones instruction but others claim it works. good luck, let us know your results!
i hate that they have all the checks because anyone with root and chianfire 3d can run games for other chipsets just fine. why not detect the gpu and cpu and have one universal install that has coding for several different api's? would it make the game that much bigger?

Yeah, it basically is WoW for your phone. I've been playing it for a couple of months on an old iPhone 3GS, an HTC Inspire and on my ASUS Transformer. If an MMORPG is your cup of tea, I can't recommend Order and Chaos enough.
Anywho, Order & Chaos is not officially supported on the Transformer but I was able to get it to work by rooting it, downloading the game cache manually, and using Titanium Backup to install an "all devices" version of the game. I haven't rooted the Infuse yet and I was hoping there would be a way to install Order & Chaos without rooting but it sounds like rooting might be the only way.

If you're up to try it, follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159975
Download the cache file referenced there and unzip it to /gameloft/games . Then PM me your email address and I'll send you the download link to the Titanium Backup backup of the game (I would post it here but I think it's considered warez). Then you unpack the TiBu backup to /TitaniumBackup , open TiBu, and restore the game from there.
Edit: I should mention that I don't know of this will actually work on the Infuse but this is how it worked on the Transformer.

It's not officially supported, but it works just fine. I don't understand why Gameloft does this with some of their games - they make their games available only for specific devices - but Order & Chaos definitely works with the Infuse. Use the .apk that zeus408 provided (I think it was the 9th post in this thread).
