Netflix app not compatible with my device (FRD-L04)

Hello
Recently, I tried to install the Netflix app in my device, FRD-L04, and notice it didn't appear in the search in the Play Store. Then, I proceed to search for it using my PC, found it and when trying to install to my device, there was the message that the app was not compatible with my phone.
I'm currently running update B385 but I believe I had the app when I was using B360. Does anyone else have experienced the same issue? I had to go to Netflix webpage and from there, download the APK for old Android versions (4.4 and later).

That's because you have your phone rooted.
Simply search and download the early version of Netflix (Netflix-4.16.1 build 15145) and you got it running.

As far as I know, my phone is not rooted. Just an unlocked bootloader, unless that counts as being rooted. Which would be weird, because I can still install Netflix in my old Nexus 7, which is not only booloader unlocked, but also flashed with a custom rom.
Just checked with a couple root checker apps and both of them tell me that my device is not rooted.

"... Just an unlocked bootloader..." That's Why!

Like Crake said, Netflix blocks downloading from devices with unlocked bootloaders, rooted or not. You can grab the latest APK from APKMirror, it should work fine.

And what about my Nexus 7 (2012) which is also unlocked and with a custom aosp rom?
Not trying to make a mess out of this. Just pointing out that it is weird that some devices do get blocked and other don't. I'll just download the apk and keep going. Thanks for your answers.

Check the SafetyNet status of your Nexus 7. Open Play Store settings, you should see at the downmost part that your device is certified.

In case of Snapchat u can download app but u can't login in. If ur saftynet is tripped then u can't download apps like Netflix and u also can't use payment solutions like Android Pay.
People aren't concerned abt safety net to protect themselves from attackers it is more for the proper functioning of apps and services on ur phone.

Android P Beta Google Pay?

I've searched a bunch and haven't seen a solution, but has anyone downloaded the lastest Android P Beta and lost Google Pay functionality? I haven't unlocked my bootloader or rooted the device, but I get the following screen when trying to set up Google Pay. Any ideas? Does the beta automatically unlock your bootloader?

deleted

I have the same problem. Does anyone have solution?

by design - gPay doesnt work on official beta even with MAGISK.

When I dirty flash mine Google pay worked fine just my dialer didn't work. So I did a factory reset and now my Google pay doesn't work says that my device may be modified. I would like to know a solution also other than going back to stock os.

Google Pay working
Hello everyone,
i have checked and confirmed that Android Pay is working in my OnePlus6 with Android P beta version.
All you have to do is re-register yourself and bang on!!! It is working as expected!
Let me know if you want detailed steps.

He is talking about Google tez app which has been renamed to Google pay in India. Its an app/wallet where you can re-register the bank or UPI address.
Google pay ,outside india, refers to payment through NFC. Which i think is not working and known issue. We should clear this before discussion about Google "pay".

Google pay is working on OPEN BETA pie.
but you must be unrooted for that if you previously rooted and dirty flashed the rom even though it will not work.
If you are rooted then go to magisk click uninstall and reboot and then unistall gpay reinstall it and now try it works.
But if you are first time installer of rom then first boot to bluespark twrp.
WIPE data then flash the downloaded. Zip of OB3.
Then reboot and. Then Install google play now configure it works.
But rooted user it doesn't work, i have tried every single method to use it on rooted devices it cant works there

Thanks mate! That makes sense.
I was going to leave the beta alone because I use Google Pay all the time, but this post encouraged me to install the beta, and now I have no G Pay
Oh well... Such is life

For GPay, if you are willing to use Magisk, you can try a module that I have been using Tezhider4magisk, Apologies if I confused you, just trying to help,
Forgot to read the posts above. Sorry about confusing with GPay in India.

I'd like to know more details about this. When I had my OP 3T in the Beta program I needed to root it to apply the DayDream hack (the DayDream demo went fine BTW). It took me several tries to bring back the Google Play to work. First I had multiple try with SuperSU + suhide, but couldn't get it to work. Then I went with Magisk, but that required multiple tries. So many tries were frustrating, but I finally got my device into a fragile equilibrium, which I immediately lost with the next Beta update.
Now I have a OP 6, and I resisted the rooting so far, partially because of Google Pay. At the same time since Magisk worked with OP3T beta + Google Pay, what's the reason it would not be able to hide itself for Google Pay on OP 6 beta program? In fact it'd be enough if a couple of non-Indian guys would confirm here that they are part of the beta and have Google Pay (non Indian - sorry -, because several folks are interested in not the Indian Tez or whatever but the legit Google Pay).
Cheers

Not sure if it still applies
But beta Android did not work with gpay by design
It was on an OS level, even if you were stock on bets/alpha it would've work it didn't matter if you have root or not

Just to let everyone know the LG G7 allows us to use the official Google Phone without any modifications.

Could it be location or provider or unlocked dependent? I don't see it in the US on Verizon.

Agreed it is a great resource. The thread said it was in the Play Store though, so I was only commenting that it may not be for all. Thanks for providing the link on apkmirror.

I tried both the 480dpi and nodpi versions on apkmirror... Both installs failed.
Edit: it's not available in the play store for my Verizon model.

yes i downloaded my canadian unlocked version directly from the google play store and it also updates via the play store.

Verizon doesn't want us to install Google phone app... I guess they don't like us having better spam filtering... I really miss it... I get 5 or 6 spam calls a day since i switched to the G7

Tried all the different apks but each one failed to install. Will have to check out true caller. Fuggin Sprint.

Have a t-mobile unlocked G7 and google phone installed directly from playstore with no problems. Not sure yet how well it works for spam filtering, but so far so good.

Cannot get Visual Voicemail to work/show up on Google Phone app. I'm on a T-Mo G7.

For Verizon users, found a solution that works. I think it's an earlier version of the apk but it installs and works! https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/help/google-phone-dialer-t3607557

It's FRP locked. That means it's either stolen, a found phone that was lost, or the previous person didn't uncheck a box when they sold it. If you're not concerned with that part then just unlock it. Super easy. I'm not going to tell you how to do so since XDA would probably throw a fit, but you can Google the answer. I've done it on Samsungs, LGs, Huaweis, Sonys.

Hey all,
I just got my M10U delivered today and to my surprise Revolut is not available for my device in the play store....... Is this because of the Chinese ROM?!
Will the EU ROM help?

I've found Revolut to be unavailable in my Play Store as well, even on the EU ROM.
I had to download its latest apk from ApkMirror and install it that way, which got it working just fine and now the Revolut app even gets Play Store updates once it's been installed. Not sure what happened there.

Works for me also. No issues. xiaomi.eu rom.
Update:
I had it also on the Chinese rom, I just had to get the apk from the web.

Thatr releaving lads... I was quite worried about it... I am not really happy to download the apk from an unknow source but if thats the way it goes.. Where di ye got your apk from?

ApkMirror is generally a reputable source, but I did check the file's checksum against the apk from play store on my old phone to be safe.

And a big question - are you guys rooted and Gpay works for ye?!

Hi guys, same problem but different phone (oneplus6) it is an odd issue where it seems to apparently reject many devices.
I dont feel easy about putting a banking app on from apkmirror though, but if it then can be updated on top from the store that makes me feel easier about it, thanks.

Yes, GPay is working just fine.
I've used it daily for about a month now, my Ultra is rooted with Magisk.

I have an issue here.. As far as Revolut installed just fine I am not able to authorise the card in GPay...
I have added the card no problems and it was authorized by Revolut in app but I’m stuck at the stage where you need to swipe the card with your phone to make it working - it gives me an error like "Bot so fast" although I stick and hold the card to the phone... Cant get around it.. Revolut and GPay have all permissions granted...
I just realized that when in Gpay and click on the card to read it opens 'MiSmartCards' - is this the way its supposed to be?
Any advice welcome..
