And it works!
Edit: My current setup is a AMOLD dinc, running CM7 with 2.3.3. 16GB msd in to.
Download from market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.netflix.mediaclient
Netflix is apparently blocking unsupported devices when you try to login, I uploaded the apk to my xoom to test it and it did not let me login.
I have the app and have not yet been able to get it to load. I just get a black screen.
However, I noted that the details on the market page state it is official for the Incredible running 2.2, and I'm running CM7.
Has anyone else tried with CM7?
Assuming there are indeed compatibility issues, I'm hopeful the devs will find a way to make it work, because I'm not looking forward to going back to stock, but I need Netflix.
(Actually. Right now, I'm thinking about loading up one of the dual-boot options with some stock Froyo. This is worth the effort.)
Edit: The dual-boot option is awesome and all... But then, I tried again in CM7, and I found that I spent a few hours heavily tweaking my phone for nothing but the thrill; the app works, and I was watching Ong Bak 3 in seconds. Since I don't need a Sense rom, I undid the dual-boot configuration.
So. Works on CM7.
Just saw this. Not showing up for me in the market. I assume its a CM7 thing.
Maybe we can find locate an apk.

no it works. i had to scroll down in the market a bit to find it. i was able to watch a movie also
apk please!
Can someone pull the apk please? I know it probably won't work, but I can't wait to try running it on my DX and Xoom!
Installed from the market, but all I get is a black screen for a long time, then an FC...
CM 7.0.3
Just tested and it does stream on CM7.
Works fine for me as well.
CM7.0.3
running CM 7.0.2.1 DINC, and program will shut off right after I try to log in
If somebody could post the APK, Thunderbolt folks would be grateful. I know it is blocking unsupported devices, but our devs want to take a crack at it. Thanks!
I am on CM Nightlies and it doesn't work. Considering a move to 7.0.0.3 just for netflix.
Works for me on CM and my DInc
Here's the apk
Working on my DX!!!
I'm streaming Law and Order right now!
Greatest.

Im getting the exact same thing on latest CM7 nightly
Running stock (rooted) 2.2 and mine force closes immediately after trying to launch the app. Somebody mentioned something about Flash 10.3 so I updated and still get force close. Any ideas?
Not sure if this info helps, but it works fine on mine:
CyanogenMod-7-04172011-NIGHTLY-Inc
[email protected] #1
Sorry, I'm not sure how that converts to the actual nightly number, but its what I was able to gleen out of the Rom Manager.
Immediately after getting into a game, the entire app just disappears and I get booted back into the home screen.
Anyone else getting this?
Yep, doesn't work for me either.
Works fine for me
Not the same problem.... I almost got to finish the first game with all its waves, but right at the end it crashed.
Today I re-tried: entered the Tavern, did some poking around, shooting at dummy... and after about 3mins: crash to homescreen...
I am also having random crashes back to homescreen with this game.
1st crash, was right after loading.
retried
2nd crash, played the first mission, partly into the 3rd wave.
Haven't tried it since.
I am confused. This game was available for the Adreno 205 chip in the older phones. The Adreno 220 found in the sensation should be fully backward compatible + new features and speed ups. The CPU should also be compatible, why does it not work?
What is the cause? Bad HTC drivers? CPU? GPU? Bad Sense 3.0 implementation? OS (I don't think google will mess up that bad)
Just to confirm, I did buy this game and downloaded it from the market, so it wasn't sideloaded or anything
It has to be because of Sense 3.0
There's too many other phones with similar hardware that work fine.
+1 here
I love this game. Any solution?
It usually runs for me with a very occasional crash.
runs great for me. i do have spare parts installed with compatibility mode on if that makes a difference
Also have spare parts installed and set to compatibility mode... it doesn´t make any difference
Just crashed for me too, is anyone running stock loader etc? As stated erlier it is almost certain to be a sense conflict, but the game will have to be updated before its fixed.

So if you use Launcher Pro or ADW etc the game will work fine?
I gave up and deleted the game and all the data...
Chainfire
I've been getting crashes too but then i tried to ran this app through chainfire with nvidia plugin loaded and now it works. But you will have to go through almost 10min lag when the game is loading which is pretty annoying so i don't think this is some kind of fix. Well I guess we will have to wait for some update :-/
can you guys temme the settings for chainfire 3d and spare parts as it is crashing a lot on mine
Is *ANYONE* with a Sensation able to run this game without ever crashing?
Perhaps those on different ROMs?

I've been trying to run it first with a Sense rom, crashed after the intro.
Now I've tried it on a CM7 Rom and it crashes while in a game in between waves.
A friend of mine is running InsertCoin and he says he's running it without any problems.
I've tried reinstalling it several times thought it might be corrupt data which is downloaded to your SDCard but I don't see any difference.
Hope this problem will get fixed I'm only able to play it it on my PC now.
so is there any progress?
Since I`ve upgraded to ICS - stil the same.
none of gpu binares do nothing...
I'm running stock 2.3.3 and I'm still on the old market software (2.3.4). Will my handset update to the new market automatically? Are there any benefits to the new market besides the improve GUI? (I'm desperately hoping the search is improved!)
As much I'd like the fancy new look of the new market, I'm wary of updating due to the new auto-update feature in case my phone has a dodgy eMMC. Is there anyway to disable the auto-update feature before it gets chance to start?
Please note, the new market is very very slow...
Not much of an upgrade apart from the visual changes

The earlier versions of the new market were slow, eg 3.1.5, but the new one is much better, i.e. 3.3.11
Plus, the new version prevents simultaneous installs and crashes, with apps being installed sequentially. I've been flashing new ROMs with the new market, and my apps all reinstall automatically, i've never faced a hangup yet!
Plus, the new market gives you a one-click abort to stop installation of all apps in one go... unlike the old one where you had to cancel each app one by one... Also, there is the option to only update when on wifi. Saves mobile data package and if you have that option checked, and you're not on wifi, your apps wont update at all!!
I would definitely recommend the new market.
The good news is that the new version had a setting to disable auto updates.
The bad news is that Oli is right. For the sake of a fancy UI, it's slower, laggy, and will frequently tell you updates are available for apps when in fact they are not. The latest version 3.3.11 is slightly better than previous efforts, but i still have to abort updates, clear data, and get false update notifications.
If you are on stock and not rooted, google will be pushing this polished turd onto your phone soon.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that wnp
It is slightly better with the new 3.3.11 compared to 3.x.x but could still do with a speed boost!
Market 3.2.0 was just released a few days ago! Wonder what changes it brings!
@enigmaamit wow never knew that! So are you saying that it could be safe to hit auto update on all apps, as it does it one by one? No more chance of a fried Emmc chip?

Yup, i've updated around 15 apps at one go, and the install occurs sequentially instead of simultaneously.
No issues so far (four different ROM flashes with the new market)
The biggest issue for me with the 3.x markets is that "compatibility check" of the application with the device registered. Since there are not too many of you complaining, I presume you are not using a non-standard screen density. If you do it, market will show for many application the "application is not compatible..." message and you're not allowed to download it. 240 screen density (standard for HDPI devices) is too big for my taste, I prefer something like 200-210. In this case alot of applications designed for HDPI cannot be installed (Skype for ex is one of them, but there are many).
Adding this on top of the slowness of the new market, makes me using the "old" 2.3.6 version which is perfect. Unfortunately this version was giving FCs with the ICS ROM I've tested (the alpha from superkid) so I am wondering if it will work at all on ICS or I should be forced to upgrade to the latest market (which is something I don't want).
If somebody finds out a way to bypass this compatibility check, please share, it is very annoying
Thanks for your input guys. I think I'm going to wait until the new market is pushed to my phone. Hopefully by then some more of the bugs might have been worked out. I'm in no rush.
Hey guys,
I've been trying to get GTA3 to run on the Tab since launch and it seems I finally found out how!
Here is what you need:
1. You need to find a way to purchase GTA3 from the market! I did this by purchasing it for my SGS2.
2. Make sure to install version 1.1 as version 1.0 crashes and causes a device reset!
3. There is no need for Chainfire3D options to be activated.
Cheers,
C.
Work ON ICS
I have test version 1.1 on My tab running ICS Alpha 3..and its work...^_^
Here the screenshot :
Bump!
I reached Staunton Island and it works just fine.
Missions are harder to complete without a mouse, but the retry system works great and it's really fun!

Working on Stock Firmware provided by Overcome
Installed GTA 3 V 1.1 this night and it worked! Though i seems it's a bit laggy but who gives a **** it works!
Im using the stock firmware provided by overcome, with root priviliges and the overcome kernel and recovery.
Hi, today I downloaded from the market the Grand Theft Auto III and downloaded the files to be able to play the game and I made it with Android 2.3.6 Stock P1000XWJQ8_P1000PHNJQ1_P1000XXJPZ with root and with stock kernel.
Note: Just install the latest GTA III app and you will be able to play the game
i'm running gta 3 on my galaxy tab (with overcome kratos rom) and its laggy as hell. even after a reboot and closing all kind of open applications/tasks it gets nearly unplayable when i enter a vehicle... too bad

I use the sgsll full effects file on either Boca rc1 or icedboca
Lagfree governor, vr scheduler at 1.2 ghz
Unplayable on overcome. Hangs every few seconds and doesnt go far beyond 10fps.
I went into options and put sfx and music to 0. Now the game is playable but still not 100% smooth. Sadly not much else I can do as there's no overclocked kernel for P1010 official gingerbread rom.

Original Samsung Galaxy Tab with Stock Rom 2.3.3 Does play it well
I have Samsung Galaxy Tab with 2.3.3 ( Stock Rom ) DDJPA version recently updated from Froyo. I tried the steps, but game hangs in between. While I have all the HD gameloft games like 9mm, Nova2, MC2, MC3, Asphalt 6 Adrenaline ( all HD versions) , and all of them works flawlessly. Also I have almost 6 GB of free space on Internal Storage while my SD card also has 4 GB free.
Did anyone faced the similar problems on Stock Rom from India -DDJPA versions of Gingerbread. Please help

I contacted rockstar because of my galaxy s2 and they gave me the usual list of things to do...
First, check to verify that your device is listed as a supported device:
http://support.rockstargames.com/en...anniversary-edition-list-of-supported-devices
Unsupported devices may display poor performance or crashing. We are always working to support as many hardware types as possible, and we recommend subscribing to that article for the latest additions to supported devices. Note that Rockstar Games has not tested on jailbroken phones or custom ROMs, and we are unable to guarantee functionality on modified devices.
If your device is supported, here are some troubleshooting steps that may solve crashing issues on Grand Theft Auto III 10th Anniversary Edition:
Close Background Applications Crashing may be caused by playing GTA III while other applications are running in the background. To fix this:
Android: Use an application such as Advanced Task Killer (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rechild. advancedtaskkiller&hl=en) to minimize the number of processes running in the background while playing GTA III Reboot the Device It may also help to restart the device and run GTA III from the fresh boot with no other applications running. To reboot the device:
Android: Some phones have their own unique soft boot methods, but the safest bet is to turn the phone off, wait 30 seconds, and then turn it back on. Hard Reset the Device if Still Crashing After Rebooting
iOS and Android: Try making some room on your device if it is filled with other applications and data. In particular, this has been reported as a fix for some problems on the Galaxy S II, but may improve performance issues or crash problems on other devices as well. Redownload the Game
iOS and Android: To rule out possible data corruption, delete the game from your iOS or Android device and then re-download it from the App Store or Android Market. Be sure that there is enough space for that game and your signal is strong enough to complete the download. Update the OS/Firmware Please ensure that you are running the latest OS/Firmware on your phone or tablet.
Android: Press the "Home" button. Then press the "Menu" button (four horizontal lines, the word "Menu," or four small squares), then select "Settings." Select "About Phone." Choose "System Updates" and follow the on-screen directions to install any updates, if necessary. The lowest supported version is 2.2, but we recommend updating to the latest available. Determine if Other Applications are Causing a Conflict Occasionally, unforseen conflicts may arise between applications and uninstalling some of them may help to isolate the issue.
Android: Go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and uninstall other applications that may be interfering with GTA III. This may be particularly helpful if you are able to see in the error log (directions for recording error logs are in a later section of this article) which other Application could be running in the background, causing a problem. Restore the Device If you are definitely using a supported device and one or more of your applications is crashing consistently, try restoring your device.
Android: If your device is supported and you are crashing frequently in GTA III 10th Anniversary Edition and/or other applications, consider a factory reset. Note that you will lose data and settings. To perform a reset from the Home screen, go to Menu->Settings->SD & Phone Storage->Factory data reset->Confirm. Check the Crash Log
Android Error Log: On Android, we recommend downloading a free app such as aLogcat (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en) to monitor any errors or crashes that occur on your device. This is useful not only when submitting tickets to Rockstar for help, but also as a way to determine yourself what processes or conflicts may be causing the problem.
For more information about Android troubleshooting, please refer to http://www.android.com/.
Personally I find closing all background applications before playing helped alot and rockstar couldn't help me with error logging to see if a background application is causing the problem.

I installed a Chrome Beta apk I got from some of the other forums here at XDA, but I seem to be getting FCs every time I launch the app, was wondering if anyone got it working or if anyone has found a fix for this issue.
It requires hw acceleration. Won't work for us yet until we get that achieved.

That makes sense, I did manage to download an apk that does not FC every time, but I can't really says it's usable.
Here's hoping the CM9 team or some other dev manages to make it work someday.

I have it installed. No FC's, but it doesn't work. As stated, it needs hardware acceleration. It went through the entire setup, sign in, and import of all normal information. But when you try to load anything, you stare at a blank screen.
