I bought a Xperia 5 II at release. In all that time I was never able to use Netflix on this device.
Whenever I open the Netflix Icon it says "Sorry, we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. (-1000)
I tried a lot of different approaches in the hopes of fixing it:
- Mobile / Wifi as well as different Wifi Access Points or Tethering makes no difference
- Uninstalled the app countless times, however because Netflix is pre-installed I'm not able to deinstall it from my phone completely. I can only delete all the data and then I'm forced to update the app via play store again
- Countless number of workarounds when people had similar problems, youtube videos, comments in forums... many questions about this problem you can find on google were actually asked by me
- Complete reinstall of the phone
I read about people who had this problem in the past but the majority had it fixed after an update from Sony.
Is there anyone who could kind and try to help me? This is driving me insane and I have this phone for almost a year now and am absolutely happy with it.
Regards and Thank You!
Maybe try contacting Netfilx as this is their app to start with. They must be having proper idea why you are getting above mentioned error. Then accordingly you can contact Sony support if issue is with device and not Netflix itself(I doubt it's device related as other apps are working fine!?)
Thank you for your answer and yes, everything else is working flawlessly.
I'm going to write an email to Netflix and then I'll see what happens. I'm afraid they will only give me prefabricated answers.
So what was the outcome???
Having same issue and also tried all above and on a samsung

Hi I hope someone can help.
On my HTC hd7, the featured apps and free track of the week is not changing.
When I first enter the marketplace, the apps listed are still the same and have been for about a month. I hope there is a fox for this bug as I can't get the free track of the week if not.
Thanks.
Can no one help? I am also not able to update my apps, getting a error saying, can,t get information and to try later. But I am about to try and fix that. I would be grateful if some one could help.
same here.However,what I facing is marketplace not fetching updates for the apps i downloaded.What I do is open zune on pc and then connect device to pc,once it is connected.Then,left it there for about 5mins,let the zune fetch the updates to your phone and disconnect device from the pc.Now,you can connect your device to the WIFI,i think you would able to see the updates.
second option is do a hard-reset to your device.
third option is use your WP7 as a secondary device or sell it.
I'm thinking that third option would b a good deal.Marketplace and the in-app browser are setting me back.
Hummmm.... I don't really want to do a hard reset but I think it will be the only opposition , the third opption is deffently looking like a good opption which is sad
Hello everyone, I am looking for some help and suggestions. Recently the market on my Transformer Tablet has stopped working. I am no longer able to search for any apps. I can browse the market fine but searching for anything will only bring up random books. I have the US version and have had it since the release. I am currently stationed in Japan with the Marines but have not noticed this issue until within the past couple weeks. Originally I was running Revolver 3.11 when this all started happening and then upgraded to 3.11.1. Within the market I can start typing "tita" and the search will bring up "titanium backup" as a suggestion but neither clicking the suggestion nor finishing typing the whole thing myself, will bring up any results. I have tried many apps and games and all produce 0 results. Even apps that I am looking at while browsing will not show up once searched. Here is everything that I have tried to fix this.
First I tried using the online market to install apps. I can find an app through the online market and it even shows my transformer when I choose a device to install it to, but once it says your download will begin shortly nothing happens on my tablet and nothing is ever downloaded.
Then I decided to try clearing the cache and data and force stopping the market. This made no difference. I then tried restarting after clearing it all again and no luck.
Next I thought it could have been an update to the market that broke it so I found some of the older versions and tried installing them. I tried versions 3.3.1.2, 3.4.4, 3.3.11, and 3.2.0 and none of them made a difference.
I then tried the market switcher found within the revolver app and flashed that. After that didn’t work I tried the market enabler app as well as the market unlocker app but still had no difference.
After all of that I started trying different roms. Each time I installed a new rom I would wipe the data/factory reset as well as wipe the cache and dalvic. I first went to an older version of revolver 3.9.5 followed by the Krakd 1.5.2 rom and then Android Revolution HD 2.3.2. Changing the roms did not make any difference. Then I tried using the super wipe flash files from Android Revolution and then installed the roms and it was still a no go.
I also decided to see if it was my internet so I switched to tethering it to my Desire HD. But still no change. On another note, my cell phone as well as my GTab all still have working markets.
Finally the last thing I’ve tried was a fix used for the GTAb here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861044&highlight=market+fix still nothing as well as the steps found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411288
I have seen a similar post in the revolver thread but the member seemed to just need a fresh install to fix his but that did not work for me. I have also found a couple posts on other forums with some people having the same issue but there are no solutions. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
I think the market is blocked in certain countries like China, Japan might be one of them too.
If it is blocked on an ISP level you would need to use a proxy
Hi
Have the same problem. I'm in another country allso. I asked Google for help, and after 13 mails it is still not working. But I have this problem on SGT P-1010 (no 3g) and TF 101 (no 3g). They claim that device cannot determine it's location!
All the time I had absolutly no problem with market on my SGS phone! Even If I try to do anything on Market while both were on wifi, it was all the same. SGS search and purchase yes, tab no.
Browsing, serarching, purchasing on PC and sending on device is working only fpr phone, tab is greyed out "this blabla cannot be installed in your device's country.
But, I found Chomp (search market, or browse as long as needed to get to it). Now, when I want something for tab, I run Chomp, do search through it, press install and it is working. Except purchasing.
Second option, I search and install to phone, backup it, transfer to tab and install.
Getjar and Amazon is an alternative if you can't figure this out.
Hi,
I'm looking for a way to play divx files in-browser, i.e. to stream video files from the internet and not to play downloaded .mp4s. I've tried several apps that are supposed to do that, such as moboplayer, MXPlayer etc., and none of them worked. Am I doing something wrong, or is it impossible to use this plugin in any way on android any more?
Device: US MZ604 on stock 4.1.2. I've tried the stock browser and chrome* so far
*which apparently now doesn't support any plugins anyway...
Welp, no replies eh well..
I may have solved this issue by downloading a newer version of Flash anyway. I say may have because while the plugin now works, it seems to be very slow to load anything. Frankly, I'm out of the time (and the data allowance) to test it thoroughly, but give me a few days and I may be able to call this solved. Later then...
OK, the plugin has been tested repeatedly now and, I am pleased to say, works! So the message is: if your version of flash isn't working, delete amd sideload another one. I presume everyone knows where to go for those ersatz updates by now, but if not the answer is of course a website like http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/apk or right here on this forum
So, we can call this thread SOLVED.
Hello xda-guys, devs, user and everyone else.
Since I got an Android phone, i startet to love it and still up today I can't imagine to have another mobile OS. When I swapped a few years ago to a MVNO, the pain begun:
When using your Android phone with a MVNO, it is saying that you are roaming. So you have to activate "data usage while roaming", get a lot of annoying warnings and if you live near a border, you can look forward to a very high phone bill.
This issue is only on Android, no Windows phone, no iOS, not even and unbelievable old Nokia does have this problems!
The problem is (well?) known at google since 2009 (!!!) and all over the world, but google is ignoring it:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3499
Unfortunately, most people around the world don't even know that this is a problem! Even the manuals from the MVNO's are saying that you just have to activate data usage while roaming, altough they know that this can rise your bill when you live near a boarder... (Or do they want exactley that?!)
I love my Android, but without any hacks or rooting to solve this problem, it is useless!
I don't want anymore to be forced to root my phones and search for a hack, patch or anything else when there is a new version.
Only Samsung implementet it in their firmware which solves this problem. But it can't be that I need to use only Samsung phones in the future?
With upcoming root "problems" of Lollipop and also ART it is getting more difficult to find solutions for that problem.
Maybe here on XDA, there are more people haveing the same annoying problem and are maybe also as fed up as I am about that problem.
So there is my question, what can we all together do, that this problem will be solved once and forever directly by google?!
I can't imagine that this is taking more time then two days of coding by one person sitting on the right place...
Sorry for my bad english and I hope that there are many other people like me sitting there and are also as fed up as I am about that problem. If i start to think about it, I would like to throw my phone away and start useing my brick old Nokias again.... I just can't understand why this problem isn't fixed since years...
PS: If I posted this in the wrong section, I'm sorry. Please move it then to the right section.
Seems that the national roaming issue isn't annoying anyone other?
This is definitely annoying me. My Xperia T had support for my MVNO built in, but my Huawei didn't until the last update (EMUI 3 beta). Xposed framework stopped working after an update, so I couldn't use the National Roaming plugin anymore. I was forced to enable roaming and download an app called network status notification. That way I could at least see if I was using 2g or 3g.
I have no idea how we can ask Google to do something about it, but if someone here on XDA can fix it, why can't Google fix it?
PS: EU roaming option would come in handy too
National roaming improved

i use the app from this site
https://blog.sprinternet.at/2013/12/android-roaming-statusicon-entfernen-inlands-roaming-mvno/
it works great for me!
it is open source but i don´t know how build apps... if somebody knows how to do the app is more then 1 year old but it works on lollipop and kitkat!
you only need root! no xposed!
direct link to the .apk
http://www.sprinternet.at/uu_wiki/MVNOroaming.apk
Thank you for this tip! I've searched a lot and found only script based solutions or the way via the xposed framework -which I actually do not need!
I'll try this in the evening.
But unfortunately, there is still no solution from google or without root...
That Google ignores it is unbelievable, but due the fact that I have root tyrol made my day with this tipp
Hi Folks.
Just picked up a very nice old EVO Shift and would like to root it.
Certain problems have arisen immediately and I hope someone can direct me in how to solve them, please.
To start with - right this minute all I have is an old XP PC, so the tools for newer OSes will not work for me right now.
I have searched here and in general extensively and found many possible answers - but cannot get anything to succeed yet.
The HTC Dev site allowed me to join, but instead of getting to the bootloader unlocking area it just demands that I log in over and over - so I cannot do it that way.
(I tried maybe 5 different browsers, clearing cookies, cache & all that - same results.)
Kingo has a specific tool for this - but apparently it just uses the HTC Dev site in the background and it fails as well.
The htcsupertoolv3 opens - but it also depends upon that site and also fails.
Many sites recommend downgrading the phone from 2.3.4 to 2.2 - but their files were uploaded aeons ago and I have not been able to find a complete solution anyplace.
The phone connects fine to my PC, I have the drivers & ADB & I've been working at this most of the day today without success.
Right now seems like a good time to give myself and the phone a rest and to resume tomorrow when I get some time...
Any help will be hugely appreciated.
Thanks
