Netflix says "Incompatible device" - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm running RR 6.0.1. I clean installed, removed built-in root (leaved the phone unrooted). Play Store showed my device as uncertified. Latest Netflix does not work.
I flashed Magisk 14, then this module, and Device Certification section dissapeared. Uninstalled Magisk, now device showed as certified.
Netflix still NOT working. It does show up on Play Store search. Flashed Magisk again, Mario Run seems to work, and also Android Pay.
EDIT: Forgot to say, SafetyNet passes all the time.
But Netflix insists in Incompatible device. May be the unlocked bootloader? Or the custom ROM?
Is there any workaround for this? (Aside from installing old 4.x version of Netflix)
Thanks!

I've installed Netflix on a few devices succesfully, after facing the same issues as you, by downloading the .apk from Netflix directly here: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/57688

Unfortunately, that's 4.16.x version
I'm talking about newer versions

Same problem! I used to be able to use the latest Netflix from playstore on my stock and even custom Nougat ROMS, but since the Oreo update I can't. It passes Safetynet but Netflix says incompatible. :/

I'm in the same boat. I have a OnePlus 2 running Lineage 13 and unable to run any Netflix app above version 4.16-200147. My device passes SafetyNet and able to run other apps (Super Mario Run, Pokemon GO) without any issue. If I however update my phone to Lineage 14.1, install the same version of Magisk I'm able to run the latest version of Netflix. Personally I prefer Lineage 13 on my device. I'm guessing that the "system" is signed differently???????

I "fixed" it by upgrading to Nougat, RR ROM Rootless + Magisk 14 + Xposed + No Device Check module, nothing specifically activated in Magisk Hide.

+1 4.16 version, anything newer complained about device not supported
running sony xperia z3 compact on omnirom

On LineageOS 16, every version i tried complained about not supporting my device (SM-G920F), except this one: https://m.apkpure.com/netflix/com.netflix.mediaclient/download?from=details
(v6.26.1 build 15 31696)
It's not the latest, but fairly new compared to v4.16

Super Mario Run on Android Devices that are Rooted

This is a starter thread for getting Nintendo's latest Android app (which has finally come from iOS over three months later), Super Mario Run, to work on Android devices that have been rooted. Developers, please contribute your findings!
FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE GOOGLE PLAY, PLEASE POST YOUR FINDINGS! I am desperately trying (in vain) to get Super Mario Run working on a device without Google Play. If any of you do not have Google Play, or have Google Play and want to sever ties between it and Super Mario Run, please tell us what you did!
Reserved for future info.
Does this even work with manual installation (apk) ? Or is it blocked at startup ? (I guess it is, since I couldn't play Miitomo when first launched...)
It is blocked at startup.. maybe with suhide? Anyone?
On my rooted Galaxy S5 with stock Android it works without problems from apkmirror (it is incompatible on play store).
Update:
Now it doesn't work anymore. Error 804-5100 at start...
For me, it works for the first 5minutes and it crashes. Tried to hide using magisk and Rootcloak, but same problem after 5-10 minutes.
The game immediately exits on my OnePlus One running Lineage OS.
My device is not rooted, is certified according to the Play Store and a SafetyNet test passes. How is this even possible?

EMUI 9 B182 -> no more Netflix

I updated EMUI 9 B160 to B182, did a factory reset and wipe and noticed Netflix didn't get updated. When I started Netflix, it said the app needed to be updated but the Playstore link it redirected to said the app is no longer supported on my device.
Netflix worked fine before.
I rooted it, backed up Netflix and the PartnerNetflixActivation from another EMUI 9 B160 device (yes I have 2, one is updated) and restored it on B182, but this doesn't help make Netflix work.
What's "funny" is that going to RR or OMNI Netflix won't work either.
Has anyone else updated to B182 and does Netflix still work?
How can I downgrade to 160 (or even to EMUI 8)? Guides with HiSuite don't work (no button to change version) and FunkyHuawei doesn't support the CMR-W09.
I'm on 182 on my SHT-W09 model.
Netflix works fine for me - current app version is 7.9.0 build 21 (code 34223)

Google Pay After Following WTF Unlock/Magisk Guide

Hello all, I tried search the Q&A threads for any solution to my problem about Google Pay complaining about altered phone.
I have an unlocked US998 V30 variant (Nougat) that I almost never updated till now.
I followed the WTF guide using Magisk 18.0 and 20b KDZ file.
Then afterwards, I downloaded 20e, f, g, h TWRP files and flashed them via TWRP using zip queue.
In the same TWRP proces, I accidentally flashed Magisk 19.3 and that caused my phone to go into bootloop error.
I managed to fix this by going using hardware buttons to go back into TWRP, resetting everything and flashing Magisk 18.0 and the other two verity/rctd zips.
As I am reinstalling and resetting up everything, I had to update Google Play Services for Ebay (and other) apps to work (Not sure if this information is important).
When I got to trying to setup Google Pay, it complains about the phone being rooted and altered in some way.
I've tried removing phone permission from Google Play Service/Store (no go).
I've seen people suggest updating Magisk to 19.x, but I am wary of that after my bootloop fiasco.
Anyone have any suggestions or am I SOL on Google Pay?
At least on my VS996, you can upgrade Magisk outside of TWRP. In other words, have the Magisk Manager update itself, and Magisk directly (I think it's called "Direct Install").
I'm on 19.3 now without issues. This also solves the GPay issue, because nothing would let it work properly on 18.x in my experience... you have to be on 19.x for Gpay to work.

Can anyone else confirm this works with a US 998 Unlocked variant? I am not sure if I should upgrade my Magisk again and go through all that.

Yes, it works. As said, update Magisk through the app, IOW, when u boot the phone and Magisk says there's an update, do it.
Also, be sure to have gpay hidden from Magisk, in the 'Magisk Hide' section. Not sure if it matters but I also have google play services and google play store hidden.
Cheers

FWIW, I did not have the Magisk Hide anything, and Gpay is still working...
As the above mentioned posters said, installing it directly from Magisk Manager worked (19.3)!
However, after I rebooted, SafetyNet was failing and I found out it was due to Systemless Xposed Module.
Uninstalled that through the Magisk Manager, which worked and was able to successfully use Google Pay after hiding Magisk itself.
It is a shame I cannot use both Google Pay and Xposed at the same time.

You can use Xposed and pass Safety Net. There's a guide I wrote.
You have to install THIS version of Xposed (called edXposed), enable it, then download specific Xposed modules which work with it.
Xposed and Safety Net Pass -- How To!
(with Gravity Box links)
There's link for Gravity Box, and you can look in the edXposed repository and see other Xposed mods in which you might be interested.

That was not the issue.
1) If you made a backup in TWRP, all you had to do was delete boot and then restore boot from the backup.
2) You never flashed the Magisk uninstaller before updating magisk. This is a common issues going from V18-V19

Widevine/DRM status and official updates after root?

Hi,
I am considering getting the 7.2 in the 6 GB/128 GB edition. Usually I unlock the bootloader and root my phones (Magisk), to be able to use apps such as TitaniumBackup and Magisk Modules like YouTube Vanced.
Has anybody rooted their phone and can report back the availability of Widevine L1 and passing of SafetyNet (Magisk and/or DRM Info) after rooting? How does the phone handle official updates after rooting, do they still come in OTA or do they need to be flashed manually?
Thanks!
I wonder if camera quality gets worse, too.
I hope it's not the same case as with Sony devices...
No, the camera does not get worse.
OTAs
After unlocking the bootloader, I was unable to install any OTA updates. The system did allow downloading them, yet I couldn't get it to install them.
UPDATE
Turns out, you can install OTA updates with an unlocked bootloader. Though, it only works with the stock kernel. So, if anyone installed twrp or any custom kernel, OTAs would not work.
I have both Magisk and EdXposed installed. The latter is a means of using Xposed on the phone. GravityBox works like a charm

Cannot find netflix on playstore!

Hi guys, I recently came back to miui from a custom rom, and I cannot find netflix on my playstore. Play protect says device is not certified. So how can I fix this? I was on 12.0.2 then I switched to 12.0.3 and it's still the same thing.
Also I know I can root my device and fix it. But shouldn't be getting it directly if I'm on an official rom?
When I first switched to 12.0.2, I was rooted and phone was decrypted too. But then I installed 12.0.2 and didn't root and decrypt data. It was still the same thing. Then I moved to 12.0.3 and it's still saying device is not certified.
Also I just checked with root app and it says my device is not rooted.
