Here is the NETFLIX apk. I tried it and I got stuck in the now loading screen. Maybe you'll have better luck. Let me know how it goes...
Using Preludedrew's Stock ROM and Dread 7us' Honeycomb Theme with BC's 1.5 Kernel...(max 1.267 min 768 ondemand)
place it on your SD card and use a file manager to download the apk.
*EDIT* here is the latest build (1.3) works well on CM7.
Lol I downloaded and was hoping not to have to pay for it..like just to watch their online crap movies but eh I'm not signing up for it cause I d/l movies :\ but install went well
Sent from HTC Knight using Mikrom..because CM7 got overrated like CWM
Streaming errors out on samsung vibrant

Yeah, it won't stream video yet. Some other threads are saying that the app is checking for hardware version and/or DRM rights and failing when the phones don't pass. Seems there's a thread for this in every phone's forum and they're all having the same results. I'm betting that our talented community will figure it out though

Anyone have success yet with the Netflix apk file for the HTC EVO Shift 4G streaming media?
My boyfriend's EVO has it up and running, but my EVO Shift still won't stream anything.
This is an old build. A current one is available somewhere in the forums. Go download that one...
Try and do a search.
The is another posting that has 1.2 and there is a link to dl a fix so u can watch on most sense I'm running mikshift-G and with the fix it works also works on nightly cm with out a fix
The app that is included on the New release of the mik ROM, works without the need of the patch. Been using it for the past three days.

Well here is the latest NETFLIX APP (1.3) which I'm sure is available everywhere. Figured to skip the searching and post it. Tried it on my SPEEDY and works pretty well. No need for patches, just install straight up.
I am running CM7 nightly135, with Pershoot's V1 Kernel (245/1.6 smartass)
Haven't tried it with the latest Sense Roms but I'm sure it's no problem.

Just dl'ed v1.3 from the link above and installed via adb push. App loads up fine and logs in perfectly well. All features seem intact until I try to view a video. Phone slides into Landscape mode, Netflix looks like it is buffering, then a small window pops up saying that it is having trouble connecting to the netflix site. Same result on every movie. Can't even get audio. Otherwise, the app works great. Seems to me that Netflix is a step ahead here.
Using Sprint's newest 2.3.3 temp-rooted, btw.
Juts tried my netflix app, I am using strapped rom and the app comes with the Rom, and it worked fine.

I downloaded 1.4 from market, but when I try to watch anything it tries to load then just reloads the home screen over and over. I'm using sparksco rockmod 2.3.5 rc1 with pershot kernel. I had 1.3 working fine on mik but had to flash some patch in recovery. Any ideas folks?
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
Had same problem, try removing the app completely wipe data and cache and then remove and download newer version from market. Hope it works.

1.4 is updated to work on any 2.2 & 2.3 device, the patch shouldn't be necessary anymore. Possible any remnants of it are hanging about?
Sent from my Shifty Speed Brick using xda premium
Uninstalled, reinstalled, wiped cache, wiped davlik cache, even wiped my ass... app still behaves the same, I can login, but when I try to watch anything it just loops back to the menu. I'm gonna try some backups and test w. And w.o kernals and on different roms.
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
I can verify it works on cm7, shift deck, & cyclonic roms. Haven't had problems with any kernels specific to netflix.
Might be worth an ruu back to stock, clear out any accrued crud that the normal wipes doesn't cure. I have had to do that once or twice for various issues.
Good luck.

Hi,
My phone shown as rooted. But I'm not able to run wireless tether app. Please see attached photos and you will see what's I'm talking about.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Note. I use Rom manager to fix all permission issues and still can't run app.
Please let me know if I did anything wrong between ruu, kernel n Rom.
I'm open for suggestions...
Thanks
Also my battery is not getting any better...

First off this should be in general as this has nothing to deal with development.
Second why not use the built in htc app?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
You could try using a different ROM, sometimes that's the cause of it (e.g. my phone will not tether properly using android wifi tether on bolted ROM)
You could try using barnacle (if you don't need an infrastructure hotspot)
Hope this helps.
try uninstalling and reinstalling the app and make sure super user is working correctly. I used it on Bamf and Stock rooted but after I switched to bamf and restored my apps/data i had to uninstall/reinstall then it worked fine.
I love my aosp rom, and I still want to use it as a daily driver. That said I still need a rom that nfl mobile works on. I need to be able to watch my home team while out of town. Can anyone point me to a rom that nfl mobile will work on?? That way I can install it and create a backup so whenever I NEED to watch nfl on my phone, I can restore back to it easy. Also, if it worked with mr2 + radio would be most desired.
Edit: ok, I'm stupid didn't realize I needed my Verizon..... But it still doesn't work in AO5PTH3ORY. So I'm going to do some testing and post results here.
Edit #2: UBER BAMF- working with restore method
SYNERGY 3.0- working with restore method
GTP EATON 1.7- working!
Gingeritus 3d - working with restore method
More testing to come! I know how many people need there football fix this season!
If anyone knows a fix for one of these roms please post and let me know!

Have you tried to uninstall ssopermissions with TiBu?
Mine is currently working with skyraider zeus preview 2. I have tried with bamf 4.9 and it worked.
It works great on CL3ANTH3ORY. Make sure you perform a full wipe including system when you flash. Install NFL Mobile, sign in to your Verizon account, and you'll be set.
What do you mean by uninstalling ssoperations?
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
it works on bamf 2.3,vzw did something that now requires you to log into your "my verizon profile",if you install bamf 2.3,set it up,start the nfl app,log in to my vzw profile,prompt comes the first time,titanium backup everything,system files included,restore your nandroid of what ever rom you were using,restore these 3 files with data, ssopermissions1.0,vzwsso engine,nfl mobile. it will work for about 12hrs then times out,after that all ya gotta do is retore them again.

I think I understand what your saying, will that work if I restore to AO5PTH3ORY? I'm guessing not, but don't have time to test until tonight

Currently I'm using LS ics aosp mr3 and sometimes I switch to tshed 1.6 when I have a hankering for Netflix usability.
It is my understanding that root+rom=free tethering.
1. Do all roms have built in tethering without having to dl a 3rd party app?
2. For those that do (if not all) why do people use 3rd party apps anyway? Is there a benefit?
3. I notice LS doesn't seem to have built in *wired* tethering but I still have a paid 3rd party app for that from my unrooted days. So question is, is there any speed advantage to using wired tethering over wireless?

Yes, root + ROM = Free tethering
Answer to number 1: No, not all ROMs include a tethering app. You can download one from the playstore if this may be the case. Usually the tethering app included with a ROM is a third party app, but is there because the developer would suggest its use for that ROM... usually because they tested wifi tethering on their ROM with that specific app.
Answer to number 2: Third party tethering apps are in play store in case the ROM didn't include a tethering app. Also, if you use Titanium Backup to backup your working wifi tethering app and its settings, it's less of a pain to just restore that previous tethering app and its data so that you can skip setting up the app again.
Answer to number 3: I'm unaware of speed advantages of internet by tethering wired compared to wireless. Just see what works best for you.

Ok. Number 2 comes from LS, it has built in tethering however I noticed people in the dev section under the LS thread talking about getting "wifi tether" from the market and making it use the nexus one settings and all that and I'm thinking... why bother with all that if its got its own.
Thank you sir.

You can try it if you want to and see how it works for you.
But no, I highly doubt there is a internet speed difference between wired and wireless tethering. A mobile data connection is a mobile data connection, no matter how it's shared.
I suppose some people just don't like using wires, which is understandable.
I haven't tried the built in tether yet but the cm7 tether wasn't as good at keeping a connection as WiFi tether from the market.

Btw. Without starting a new thread, or should I? What is the lightest yet fully working AOSP Gbread rom? I've been using tshed but even that seems to have a bit of unnecessary stuff packed in. Like Rom Manager for instance...I'm on 4ext now so that's useless. I'm not brave enough to go removing system apps. I don't know what's necessary.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I think sfkcm7 is the lightest. To delete a system app all you need to do is download a root file explorer line es file explorer and give it root permissions in the settings and mount system as read/write. Then navigate to /system/app and delete the apps that you dont use like Rom manger.

Ok. Deleted rom manager from system/app, rebooted. Its still installed and not removeable. Now what? Please forgive my newbishness.

Alright, following This Guide I got Google now working.
To summarize what I did
1. Root phone using the Korean Root method
2. I unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM using Project FreeGee
3. I booted into CWM and installed This zip.At the I was writing this guide, I freegee was on version 0.5
4. My phone restarted and froze up about twice before finally staying booted. It seems to have normalized now.
edit:Right now most things seem to work.
If anyone finds a better version of Google now, please let me know and post the how-to.
I didn't make the zips and all I have done is follow the instructions and write down my personal experience. I give full credit to the author of the original post for their instructions/work they did. However, since the LGOG doesn't need project Butter, Google Now is the main thing we are missing from 4.1 and it should help ease the wait for a stable AOSP ROM. If anyone has any issues let me know and I'll make a list.

THis is great news. Right now I'm pondering whether to get this phone or the Note II, and Google now (which I have on my Captivate running SlimBean 3.0) is the one thing I really cannot imagine giving up.
Question: when you say that Calendar/settings alamrs don't work, do you mean that they don't work at all, or that they don't show up in Google Now?
I was referring to not working in Google now. Although i did manage to set an alarm with it shortly after this post.
Also fwiw I had the captivate too. I try to stick with nexus hardware.

OK, I can't get it to launch links for me after searching. Anyone else? I'm wondering if it's because I removed Chrome and the LG browser?
Sent from my LG-E970 using Tapatalk 2
Edit: Works most of the time but I also have issues launching links. I still have chrome and the stock browser installed, it will launch them I just have to click on them multiple times. I'm also occasionally having issues exiting to the home screen using either the home button or the back button.
Links can be a little stubborn for me but, usually open.

Titanium backup.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
Uninstall stock voice search with titanium backup or you will get problems with android keyboard. It makes it try use them both for voice typing. I'd assume it may be the cause of any and all problems.
Edit: scratch that... Since installing Google now I get all kinds of freezing reboots. Caca. Then again it just be saying f u to nova launcher. Clearing cashes fixes it until it happens again.
Has anyone had good luck with this?

One of the cards says there's an update available in the Play Store. When I go there it says my device is incompatible. Is there something we could tweak to the build.prop in order to get this update? Or will that mess things up due to the nature of how it was installed?
