Netflix now works on CM #74

don't know if anyone else reported this but I just flashed cm nightly 74, tried out neflix and it worked!
I didn't edit anything just freshed wiped and installed the nightly
if your coming from 7.0.3 make sure you do a full wipe as nightly 74 is 2.3.4
best of luck, it looks beautiful on our beautiful screens

Streaming works??

yessir
works perfectly in my rooted mytouch 4g running CM nightly #74
I don't know if you will be able to find the app on the market but i loaded from titanium back up and since i been trying with every single nightly since the app was announced I was pleasantly shocked that it actually worked on this one

By golly he's right.

Ahhh, so it's not on the market... then how did you get it?

the market...
i think its hidden from other phones that are not the ones which are supported,
but i had previously (in another nightly) edited the build.prop to change my glacier's name into vision... which made the netflix app appeared... i downloaded installed it and backed it up using titanium back up...
then i installed the new nightly and restored the app

I've got it running too #75. Does anybody notice the frame rate of the video playing back? Looks like it's not running the full frame rate. Looks like it running at 15fps?

I noticed the same thing. I'm going back to eViL Dee's. it looked really good on their. And with the OC @ 1.5 it's got me hooked

are you guys running it on 3g? it looked nice over wifi...

When i was on eViL Dee's it looked over HSPA as it did over Wi-Fi, when tried Cyanogen(mods) it looked like an older SNES playing videos. I'm sure they're working on it and it'll come out smooth in the end but for now i'm going to rock eViL's.

works smooth on Royal Ginger 2.1; comes bundles with the ROM, no extra stuff needed.

I got it working on my Vibrant. Playing Netflix on it is super smooth and the screen just makes it awesome.

Netflix customer service said that the mytouch 4g would be officially supported soon.

i don't understand how the g2 can get support first over the mytouch 4g..

Love all the different options for G2X and ICS now. Thanks.

Extremely tempted, Probably over the weekend sometime, need my phone as is for now. At least I have a couple threads to read and laugh about now. Thanks for your work and making this happen

Is there an 'Use Internal Memory' option like there is in CM7? I don't have an SD card, so it cause some issues.

I don't really know what to say, since it looks almost exactly like the past miui.

I haven't tried this, but yes CM 9 has almost everything working except media encoding and decoding.

I am running the latest CM9 beta from Arcee. Data, wifi, GPS, everything works except for the camera, and video play back isn't working.
Also, I tried connecting to T-Mobile manually, though still no data.
I'm not sure how data wouldn't work if this is based off of CM9. Since it does work on there.

im pretty sure it would have to be fixed on kernel for miui, since this is not based on a similar port device (Nexxus S), we will probably have to wait for o2x official miui v4 build. unless a workaround can be found before that. but for now no data, and i know what works or what docent on cm9. il keep ya posted

Netflix on ICS rom

Has anyone stumbled on a rom that is ICS for g2x that has working netflix.

There are no ROMs that exist just yet -- I've used both EB's ICS and HFS. Video is broken, be it camera, or games.

I use HellFire Sandwich 1.6 right now and Netflix works on it just fine.
I've also tried Eaglesblood and it worked on there too. But imho HellFire is better overall.

Hardware Acceleration doesn't work at all on any ICS rom from what I understand. So our G2x will have trouble doing a lot of things as of now.I can't wait to get rid of this ****ty phone.

I have tried about all recent updates to ICS roms and no, netflix doesn't work as of yet, at least for me. And this phone has actually been good to me so ease off of her! Lol.

Read Hellfire's change log, media acceleration was recently added. Netflix has been working for me on Hellfire for awhile now, at least 2 or 3 weeks. I can also watch videos on the SD without a problem, just cant use the stock video player, download one off the market. Hulu has never worked for me on any ICS rom. Also when i first installed Hellfire i could not get Flash player to work, so i used a backed up copy I had of flash and its been working ever since.

Yeah HF 1.6 works with Netflix. At least it has been for me. Got it straight from the Play Store, latest version (though it worked for weeks before that anyway). You could try two things. Within ICS, go to developers in settings and turn on Force GPU Acceleration. And the another is to Try using Nullifier to make sure you don't have any remnants of old conflicting files (CAUTION: that will delete everything you have except your external SD. Flash a new rom before turning off the phone after nullifying.) Worth a shot I'd say. Just careful and make sure u always backup.

And thanks for the tips hadn't tried some of those options. I would try tonight but I just flashed last night :\ Does anybody know if Boot Manager works with our phone? That would be awesome.

Will try hell later and report back.
And for the google guy. Netflix was not mentioned on any thing that I searched. I did search stop be a trying.

Nope
No go on Hellfire

I can't wait to get rid of this phone either, but at least running a new ROM it's halfway decent and usuable. Once my contract is up, though, I'm off T-Mobile. Not impressed with their service.

As far as I know Netflix doesn't work on any ics for g2x. Last I tried was HFS 1.5. I had video recording, playback, browser flash and YouTube working great, but no Netflix. 1.6 came out on Easter, 6 days ago, and the zip auto wipes, thus can't be flashed over 1.5 without having to resetup your phone. I used hfs since 1.1 n flashed each new zip over the preceding one without wipes or any issues. When 1.6 wiped me out and had lame star on unlock I switched back to cm7 nightly 225 before checking Netflix. I would love a confirmation that it works on 1.6. Anyone that says they've had it working for weeks is probably lying, or mistaken.

[Q] Video Recorder forceclose!!!

Using the most recent Hellfire Phoenix Rom I am getting camera force closes often and all the time when switched to video recording. What's up with this? I've tried the LG cam.zip also...same thing...
I've got the same setup on two G2x's and this is only the case with one. Would the best thing be to re-flash? I was hoping there might be another way because the one that needs the help is my work phone and I hate having to set it up completely each time I install a ROM or whatever.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance...and I would have used the development thread for this but I have less than 10 posts currently. I normally don't have issues or anything that I can't figure out myself with search or my skills. LoL.

I told this to someone else earleir and this might also be the case. Every phone despite being developed the same may not work the same. For example, not everyone knows but there are 4 models of the g2x. Not all roms are compitable with every version. I would suggest looking up the version you have and bringing that to the attention of the developers. And yes, by the way, you can access the development thread and you can post on them. Most of the responses for bugs are people with less then 10 thanks. As far as a fix, I don't know. Look through the thread for your rom and see if anyone claims this issue. If so, there should also be a fix somewhere in there. If not, let the dev know so they look into it. Again, MAKE SURE YOU LET THEM WHAT MODEL P999 YOUR USING!! As for where to find that, I'm not sure. I know 2 of them are the lg p999DW and the lg p999DWP. Theres 3 others but I don't know how to tell which they are. If i figure it out I'll let you know.
Edit: under the battery cover. Not under the battery though. Right below the bottom of the battery next to the screw youll see it in white print.
Edit 2: Kinda curious, which rom version are you using?

LG-P999DW is what both phones read.
I'm using the Hellfire Phoenix ROM (excellent btw).

Video Recording should not be working on any LG G2X running ICS at the moment. Unless you use Videocam Illusion Recorder.
Sorry to say it, but without the proper drivers, this function is busted.

ya i must have read that too fast and just put it together as both phones aren't working... the only thing i would suggest is just a simple reflash of the rom, no wiping just reflash it. if not then proper wipe and flash, if not that then nandroid back to a rom you were positive the phone's videocam was working.

Nope not ICS, tried that and liked it though no video recording.
Anyhow, since there are no posted fixes other than reflashing I suppose that's the route I'll go.

I tried it about four days ago and too many things were not working.
Besides, anything based on ICS now is really smooth. So smooth doesn't exactly attract my attention anymore.
An "everything is working" phone is much more interesting to me.
Anything else is just fan boy stuff.
