Will the preloaded netflix application on the lg revolution work on the tb? Same processor and drm?
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
why would you want that. The tbolt already has netflix...unofficial support but still.
Maybe they are hoping for working Netflix for Froyo.

Actually it doesn't. Only if rooted and running certain roms. Unrooted we get drm notifications and that's it. The Revolution has the same processor and built in drm. So I'm hoping it will work.

i dont think so since the netflix app checks the kind of phone your using to access the servers i thought, only gb roms (and now with the radio brick issue its time to wait a little bit more) and a hack/fix will netflix work.

It is also running on the cm7 rom, though the quality didn't seem nearly as good on cm7. It was great on the gb roms. Shame about the loop issue because I was diggin gingerbread and netflix.

I don't think it has the same drm. The hardware drm, sure, but not software. We may be able to extract that though and get it to work.

It's not a DRM issue, it's the stagefright libs. Search the forums because there is more info already here. On my phone or I'd link it for you.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Yeah, the only way you're going to get it working ever on froyo is if you compile and add in the necessary libraries that are missing (stagefright is the frontend wrapper method of streaming on android since 2.2 and underwent some major revisions since then). Doesn't matter where the Netflix application comes from at all. Unless you want to compile them or wait for someone to or pay someone to, you wont be seeing it until gingerbread is stable if you're rooted or whenever netflix decides to be nice and "officially" release it for those that won't root.
If you don't root, then thats your choice, just please no whining when you made your choice and have to wait it out for netflix to care about you (which for all anyone knows could be months away). Can't have the best of everything if you want to stay with what verizon gave you.
I don't think it would, just a guess though. By the way, do we have a Revolution forum? I don't see one in the list unless it is under a different name. I should be getting one shipped soon. It is ugly as hell IMHO.

I can't find netflix on the market anymore. anyone else having this issue? I'm guessing this might be an isolated incident. I've had a couple market issues since flashing synergy 6/1 but I thought I had squashed them.

I'm pretty sure that it's due to it not working on the official Gingerbread release. I updated my wife's unrooted phone today, and Netflix stopped working. It would start the stream, but it would stop and then go back to the queue.
I just checked market and sure enough, its gone. Maybe good news is just around the corner for us who havent been able to run it.
I just called netflix their words were "Near Future" Which means yes they will fix sense 2.1

Very cool. Thanks for making that call. Thanks button mashed.
I wonder why they would take it off though. Why not just release an update when it's ready. Hmm. Oh well.

Because it would reduce call volume if people thought it was gone and new users wouldn't even know it existed.

I see. That makes sense. Makes me happy! The only draw back to this rom has been not having netflix. Hopefully that will be remedied soon.

After speaking with my Dad who didnt even know there was a Netflix App, decided to download it before it disappeared and the Market said that his EVO wasnt a supported phone. I am under the impression that Netflix dropped support for both 2.2 and 2.3 on the EVO until they can fix it for both.
hmmm i still have it in the market but heres a change
Currently Netflix playback is supported on the following phones:
• HTC Incredible with Android 2.2
• HTC Nexus One with Android 2.2, 2.3
• HTC G2 with Android 2.2
• Samsung Nexus S with Android 2.3
• Motorola Droid with Android 2.2
• LG Revolution with Android 2.2
• Casio G'zOne Commando C771 with Android 2.2

I noticed that, and trust your input. I'll never understand why some people just post stupid crap like this guy did. If I'd noticed it was his first post I wouldn't have bothered.
I have an older .apk for the NetFlix app and when I install it and open it, it tells me I HAVE to upgrade to continue, then searches the market and says requested item cannot be found, click OK and right back to the you must upgrade screen.. so it appears that the NetFlix app is gone completely for the Evo until the fix the 2.3 issue. Can anyone else confirm the same?
I noticed that too! This really sucks ! Now what am I going to do at work? Maybe its time to introduce ubuntu to the work place
why wouldn't it work on the new update? it works on cm7 and thats running 2.3.4 -.-

Have you tried running it recently (since the update?) Possibly if you were lucky enough to have the last version they had before they pulled it for the EVO then maybe it will still work for you, but the older version I have doesn't work.
I have the last version. When I tried playing anything it would load and say that netflix had not been activated on my device. Not that it worked to begin with, but that message is new to me.

Anyone else having a problem getting the XDA app working? It loads up ok and I can log in but as soon as I try to open a post it crashes.
I have tried in in Prime 1.7 and stock and I have the same result with both.
I was yesterday. 1 in 6(give or take) posts would cause it to crash.
Yep, regular crashes for me, requiring me to log back in each time - gone back to website.
I'm having this issue too. I wonder if the app has an issue with 3.2 honeycomb.
Me to! Have to use Tapatalk to read XDA! I wonder if the premium version works ok? I've had the problem on 3.1 stock and Prime 1.6r2...
Same problem here.
The free version is known to not work properly on the TF, and has been for ages, no matter which version of Honeycomb you are on. Until it gets an update (not been updated since march), you'll either have to buy the premium version (which was updated and works fine), or use another app like Tapatalk.

Looking to get wifi tethering to work on your Tablet, PS3, Network Bluray, or other android phones with your Droid Charge 4G? Look no further than this thread.
Samsung Galaxy Phones: Droid Charge 4g, Captivate, Fascinate, Epic 4g
1. Download Wifi tether 3.1-beta6 http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_1-beta6.apk
2. Go to options>Settings>change device-profile= choose your phone: Droid Charge works with Epic 4G
3. Go to options>Settings>change setup-method = "Softap for samsung (master)
4. Enable wifi-encryption
5. Reboot your phone (VERY IMPORTANT)
6. Start android tether and away you go
I am getting 25Mbps down and 7Mbps up on my hp touchpad!!!!!!!!!!!
EDIT##
Also, each time you start and stop tethering it requires a reboot for tethering to work Again.
I have a GTab, not a Touchpad. Like a boss.
Also, can't wait to see people get v&ed for using too much data.
PS: using your Charge for xbox Live or psn is a bad idea because the ping times are awful for gaming.

Use 3.0 pre 12. Put setting on fascinate. You wont have to reboot at all. This wont boot you offline like the 3.1 either. The 3.1 is super buggy.

4g speeds though?
Yeah 3.1 is insanely buggy, first try and it kicked me off my 4g(had to airplane toggle). Second try it froze my phone up, wouldn't turn on and required me to press home and wait about 2 minutes for the black screen to disappear so I could close the damned app.
So it's confirmed the older ones work with 4g??
Ive been using it for a couple months now and have no issues.

It works without having to do a reboot or toggle airplane mode. And it works with 4G.
I set the profile to Samsung Fascinate and wifi encryption and been able to play xbox live and ps3 network without any problems.

The 3.0 pre 14 works fine also, that's what I've been using and it works perfectly.
I wasn't sure what version I was using so I just checked and that's what it is. I tether my iPad 2 and a couple PC laptops using that and never had a problem.
I don't go crazy with the tethering like some posters do however, I really don't want to risk messing up my unlimited VZ data plan........

I was on 3.1 beta 6 which provided the 4g LTE speeds. I uninstalled 3.1 beta 6 (cleared the data) and then rebooted. I installed 3.0 pre 12, set it as the Samsung Fascinate profile and then rebooted. I was able to achieve 22Mbits down and 6 up via the speakeasy speed test and stop/start the app WITHOUT rebooting The key tip is to REBOOT the app after you configure the settings. If you do not reboot, you will be stuck at some weird slow speeds (4mbits down and 9 up).
I am running the Humble 1.51 ROM with the EP1Q modem.

Hey all... I'm going on vacation this weekend and wanted to bring my Captivate with me to use as a media player attached to my car's video system. I haven't used this phone for a few months now (upgraded to a new phone), so I'm wondering which of the newer Roms have the video out (or is it called TV out?) feature working? Would anyone recommend one over another? Phone features are unimportant, as the only thing I'll be using it for are video and maybe music. Rather than flashing a bunch of Roms, I thought I'd ask the forum to see if anyone has used this feature lately and can confirm that it works on "Rom _____"
Thanks in advance!
