I dont currently have root on my charge since they threw the update on in store, But can anyone out there thats rooted through up a editted netflix app that runs on the charge??
No joy. Lets me log in but closes after.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I had problems getting it to work on my Nook Color, but finally did.
First question is whether you power cycled the phone after installing the edited Build.prop file? You need to do that to get it to recognize its new "identity."
Second question is whether you have the Netflix app installed to your main memory, or the microSD card? If the former, move it to the card. This thing eats up a lot of memory when buffering so will crash if it's not on the card.
At least, those are the two steps I needed to do to get mine working.
However, I did have another question. In your OP you said you don't have Root. If you don't are you actually able to get in and swap the Build.prop file to begin with?
I was looking for someone to post up one with the build.prop already edited so that I could get it to work is what im saying
My bad, I thought the second post was yours.
I currently don't have a Charge (will be ordering in the next few days) or I'd put mine up there. In any event, the file needs to be put in the /system folder, which I believe requires Root to manipulate, so if you aren't Rooted, I'm not sure you're going to be able to do anything.
Good luck!

Just want to pose the question of how to edit the build.prop now that we have fairly stable root. I was going to use ES File Explorer but I can't get it to allow the root features. If I can get into it (yes adb is foreign to me outside my trusty Nook) could I make it a Nexus S? HTC Vision? Ideas or guides welcome. Thanks all.
so, let me get this straight:
are you talking about the system build.prop for the whole phone or something that specific to the Netflix App?
Where would I get the netflix app?
tried to build prop change, no go. pretty sure we have to have 2.3 to get it working
I'm talking about the system wide build.prop file.
I enabled Netflix on my NC by editing the build.prop to say that it is the HTC Vision.
About the actual app itself, it is on the market, or if not found there just do a quick google for it and you can have it in no time:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
My Charge would do all but stream. We'll get there!
Apple has a contract with Netflix. We have to wait until it expires before we get Netflix on most Android devices. Same thing with Skype.
I used the netflix apk from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
Didn't work. Couldn't stream. Would editing the build.prop. enable streaming?
To the best of my (limited) knowledge, this could work. However I am "studying" and have been stripped of my Charge.
1. Backup your device by whatever means you may.
2. Get a root file explorer and go to your /system file
3. Make a copy of your build.prop somewhere other than /system before doing anything.
4. Go back to the original build.prop and change the lines for product model and manufacturer to match this:
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
-or-
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
*Must stay in their appropriate pair. I.E. HTC does not make the Nexus S, it won't work.
5. Save the new file and REBOOT (necessary)
6. Open Netflix, login, and try to watch something.
7. Let me know if it works please!
Now Netflix may be installed before, after, 3 quarters the way through the steps, whatever floats your boat. I installed before the first step when doing this to my Nook. Best of luck.
*I assume no responsibility for you messing up your device, but if you do I will try to talk you through that hard time.

I read the same thing on another site, but I didn't know if it's legit or not because changing the model to "Nexus S" seems too generic. I figured Nexus S wouldn't be the "real" model name.
But I'll give it a whirl and let you know.

Did not work.
Edit:
Samsung Nexus S model number is GT-I9020T. Changing the build.prop to that model didn't work either.
Edit 2:
LOL. I am retarded. Didn't read/see Reboot Necessary. Gonna give it another try.
Odd, I'm sure there's some way to get it up and running. Thank you for letting me know so quickly. Huge help! Where there's a will there's a way, and I want me some Netflix over 4G so I will keep poking around.

Good thinking but I'm pretty sure Nexus S is the one to use, I am not positive though.

Still didn't work even after reboot.
Unless I'm doing something wrong, I can confirm it still doesn't work.

We've been trying on the fascinate side for months with no go. Just better off waiting for gb and then root, sorry lol
What's up? Well I am a supper newb here so bear with me on this one please. This is the deal I am trying to edit the build prop with "es file explorer" so I can make my g2x think it's a different phone for two reasons, one is so I can get skype with video chat on it & second is so I can get neflix on it. When I Go & do it The Xda Way & Hit Save I Get A Message Saying "Error occurred when trying to save the file. It Will not be saved". Also, here is some info about my phone I am running the ota 2.3.3, I am thinking that's why I cannot do it? If anyone can help me out I will appreciate it thanks in advance. Oh & by the way I did root the phone, if that makes any difference.

You can't get skype with video working, and if you do please PM on how to haha, second you have to go into settings and check "root helper" or like "root something" and right below that check "make writable" this is assuming you have a rooted phone, wont work without it. Sorry.

how do i root it? as far as i know i had done it following this youtube .com/watch?v=ob4TCJ_K_S0 but my phone is telling me it's not rooted
use root explorer to edit...... go to system and the tab at the top touch it.. the folder will become r/w... then long press the build prop and open in text editor.... it will automagically save the old prop as a backup...

I can't get root explorer because you need a credit card to buy it & I do not have one & you can't get it billed to the account like a lot of apps let you do. PS I got it free & the newest one I am going to try it out now what you said
Be very careful. Some roms, especially stock and also some CM roms, won't work if you change the name in the build.prop. This info is used for booting the phone. You could render the phone in a bootloop or just locked up at boot. Better to leave the build.prop alone if you are not an expert in Android development.
You can also change build prop using root tools. Google search for the apk or download aptoide from market and dl from there if the server hasn't already been killed.
I changed mine a couple months ago to htc visions for netflix purposes, long story short I went back to p999. I suggest you leave yours as is.

First go to the market get a app called 4share download register with real email the once ur in hit menu search root explorer tap on root explorer it will install its free also check xda forums for zip file that will automatically root ur phone (gx2) in cwm just choose install zip from SD,choose the root zip u. Just downloaded and ur good
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

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.

I'm wondering if we cant just remove the "Tetherguard" app from the phone via Titanium. I'm not sure if this is what prevents us from tethering, or the app that phones home... but we might have some luck.
Other than that, can we use other apps that will bypass this?

Unfortunately that didnt work, I just tried.
I uninstalled teatherguard via Ti B/u tried to run my tether app, no luck. Tried to run the factory installed hotspot software and instead of getting denied it just wouldnt turn on. If I went into settings I could make changes and try to turn it on however it would just act as if it was loading and eventually do nothing.
At that time I went ahead and installed barnacle and no luck there either, again it wouldnt deny but it wouldnt boot up either.
Hmmmm
Okay so after playing with the app "WiFi Tether for Root Users, Muller, Lemons, Buxton" I finally got it to work. You will need the app downloaded and installed, go to settings, select profile and select "generic ICS" should be the 3rd option, then hit the menu bar again to select re install binary files.
After that turn on the hot spot and connect with your device!
Actually I'm using the HTC app for tethering!! I did this that a saw on a Vivid ROM thread, I think it was on Dark Raider's..... so I don' deserve any credit, I just want to help because I got my One X yesterday, rooted it and tried it and it works perfectly!!
You'll need SQ Lite Editor:
1) Dialer Storage
2) telephony.db
3) carriers
4) 12 Entitlement 310410
you shoud change the value under "apn" from "broadband" to "pta"
5) Please restart your device and you will get it!!
Enjoy my friends!!!
Thank you for that fix!!!!
I search hih and low for the entitlement check in all the databases. I would have never thought to look in telephony.

So I need to purchase SQLLite Editor? What am I going to edit with it? Where do I get the HTC Tethering app? I also don't understand your 1-4 steps.

It's not for the timid.
find the telephony.db in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases copy it to /mnt/sdcard
edit it with the sqlite manager of your choice. I used the firefox extension.
Find line 12 and change it from broadband to pta.
copy it back to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
reboot phone
You'll need root explorer or similar file manager with root access to get to the file and put it back
After that I just added the widget

You're welcome. I googled the file location that took a while. After that it was cake.
the maker of CWM also made a tethering app, it also claims that it's almost non-detectable by carriers since it does it with proxies and works with non-root https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.tether
just another option. If you use ssdroid, this is another tethering method that does it with proxies and also is nondetectable that i am experimenting with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25818971

pretty sure you should use a root file explorer to remove it from system/apps because you have to remove the odex as well as the apk. not saying it will work but it might. since you already removed the apk with titanium you should use a root file explorer and remove the odex file that's probably still there and see if it fixes it. im trying it now and will report back.
I searched like crazy and I can't find what PTA stands for. I know APN stands for Access Point Name. I also found out that PTA is an APN that is only utilized by LTE provisioned accounts.
Phone daTA ???
Personal Telephony Account ???
Phone Terminated Access ???
.....I don't know ....possibilities are endless but the curiosity is driving me nuts. Does anybody know?
Sorry that I wasn't here yesterday to help you out guys. I hope it's all figured out for you!!

Did you guys leave Tetherguard.apk in place when you did this? I get stuck at the "Processing..." toast message when I try to turn the hotspot on now.
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.

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
