Let's not derail this thread based on the version of Android OS.. Android OS version is not the issue.. it is the HTC Sense version that is incompatible.
I have verified Netflix works with many GB based ROM for the Evo (Sense 1.0, MIUI, CM7, Decks, Stock AOSP) EXCEPT Sense 2.1 and above I haven't found one of these that it works on.. (Shift Ports, the Kingdom ROMs etc)
@skydeaner have you made any progress on determining if it is possible to get it to run on Sense 2.1 and above? I am running Evolved Shifted RC1.1 and really enjoying it, but can't make it my daily driver until Netflix is working on it.

+1 on that bro
Is it possible this will be cleared up for us when the OTA Gingerbread update for the Evo goes through on June 6th? (See news on Engadget and confirmed by Sprint)
I know that the Netflix apps compatibility was not universal, but a major update like that should move Netflix to quickly update the app to be compatible, especially considering that the Evo was one of the launch units for the app.
Of course, it could also be an inborn issue with the leaked 2.1 that all the Sense Gingerbread Roms are based on that would actually need a fix, at which point the OTA won't help anyone... But that's for smarter people then I to fix.
It works on virusrom gingersense with sense 2.1

Have you flashed anything special to get it working? I ran that ROM for a while and it never worked for me.

It would appear that virusrom gingersense is based, at least in part, on sense 3.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036706) which may be the reason it works. The Netflix issue seems to be specifically with sense 2.1 which was based on a leaked version of the Evo's official gingerbread build (which should be available as early as today in its OTA form).
I wonder if someone else with more knowledge would be able to isolate which part of sense 3.0 is compatible with Netflix that isn't compatible with 2.1 and be able to port that component over to all the 2.1 builds to enable Netflix. Or if the simple availability of the official 2.1 from the OTA will enable the Netflix issue to resolve itself...

I used a few of Virus's Sense 3.0 ROMs (actually I used all the beat releases he put out) and Netflix didnt work on any of them for me. i tried the stock apk and both modded ones. no dice on any of them. strange.

You are correct in that I am speculating. However, considering that the sense 2.1 being used in all these Roms was from the leaked gingerbread for the Evo, I'm assuming that HTC/Sprint didn't abandon 2.1 in this final OTA version. Although they very well may have...

Thanks s0calstate0fmind for clearing that up. Could you confirm what version of Sense the OTA is going out with?
It would seem from this page of peoples experiences with the OTA that the Sense version is 1.0 mixed with certain elements from 2.1. Unlucky for us, it seems that the elements from 2.1 that they chose to include were the same ones that don't work with netflix, as people are reporting that the app has stopped working for them.

The race is on now to see who fixes the issue first, the awesome devs here at xda or the HTC/Sprint/Netflix folks....

If that is true how come it doesn't work on the OTA update from today which is running Sense 1.0?

Haven't tried on the official OTA (obviously because at the time of my post only the "Leaked" version was available) I did try it on the stock rooted leak version of the GB release (from TMartin I believe) and it did work for me.
It is official however that the GB OTA Update broke NetFlix on the EVO. NetFlix is aware of the issue and has removed it from the Market and expect a fix in the "near future" (their words).

I'm sure you've heard already, but the OTA is Sense 1.0, but hopefully the devs can work with the official Kernel to work some magic on the Sense 2.1 GB ports..

My wife is watching a movie on netflix now on the TV so I can't test the upgraded netflix app's streaming (we can only stream on one device at a time...). Can anyone confirm if this did indeed fix the issue either with the OTA (sense 1.0 with some 2.1 elements) or the leaked Gingerbread based sense roms (running sense 2.1 or 3.0)?
The Netflix app now lists Evo with 2.2 and 2.3 as compatible devices in the Android Market.
I'm on version 2.1 and have netflix

Does anyone have the 3.0 contacts app?
I tried pulling it from a 3.0 rom but the rom is just a BLOB. I can't extract from BLOB.
I tried pulling it from the installed rom but it is odexed.
Looking for a complete contact.apk from 3.0 or 3.1
I want to try to install it on GB.
It's an awesome app. Would love to have it on my desire.
Ty
The Honeycomb contacts app uses the new action bar/fragments/animation api's that aren't present in Gingerbread, it will never run.

Perhaps the developers dont have sense 3.0 ready yet maybe. Thats just like the issue i have with netflix on my evo; it doesnt even show up in the market on my evo running sense 3.0 nor any other non stock rom for that matter.
hey guys.
i decided to wait a few weeks to update to the Android 4.0 Update (ruu). currently im using Gingerbread 2.3.5 (not root, no customrom) and i think its ok.
you people who have installed the Android 4.0 Ruu Update, if you got another chance to update from 2.3.5 to the Ruu 4.0 , would u do it or not?
after some weeks of testing and exp. 4.0 , u think its better than gingerbread?
thanks

ICS is better than GB but it will be a bit slower. Try Reaper custom rom

I updated to the 4.0.4 ruu and I wasn't too impressed by sense 3.6. I have been trying to find ways to get back to gingerbread but I can't find any.
why not go directly to jellybean?

There isn't a huge amount of difference between the two os's but I found the new UI actually worse than before and a little bit slower. However you do get a bunch of new features like face unlock and more. It's a difficult one but I think ICS just about wins as it is a little nicer and more fun to use.
Hi Guys.. this is my first post and thread.
I recently rooted my phone and installed cm10.1 and the capabilities of it were brilliant and much more advanced than the gingerbread. However I really like the original gingerbread look and feel so I wanted to ask if any one knows any Roms that have a gingerbread look but have the capabilities and feel of a jelly bean rom?
Thanks.
Just use a launcher with a GB theme
AW: [Q] Roms that look lile 2.3.5 but software of jelly bean
Do you mean the sense 3 look and feel?

if you mean calendar etc then you can install sense-themed aps or use ics rom with htc sense like sabsa or ice_ds, viper, you will get better camera too. There are not JB Sense roms.
couldn't find a 2.3.5 sense theme but if you search in the play store with the following criteria you will find some examples.
"cm10 sense theme"
good luck.
Thank You all very much for the replies.
Im just going to use the cm10 rom, thanks again.
You can use FullySamsung v1.0.1. Thanks to samsung, with the crappytouchwiz UI your phone will look like it runs GB even if it runs one of the latest android version :good:
Me a samsung hater ? Nooooooo....
Touchwiz is great , unless you are a samsung hater, !
