Netflix - Atrix 4G Themes and Apps

Netflix is here for Android users!
I've packaged up the APK into an easy little installer that takes about 5 seconds.
Have fun!
EDIT: This was pulled from an LG Revolution dump. It doesn't allow you to play anything streaming yet. But it does allow for everything else.

Sooo close!

I got really excited when I saw this. Can't wait till its all ironed out and ready to go.

Thanks for this! Can't wait until we can get streaming, and also Hulu Plus for that matter. Down with traditional cable!

Cant wait til I can actually stream lol

Is this new? Its been leaked for about a week or more and I already installed it. I really thought this was a working version and was pretty happy.

The original post from this discussion was from a week ago. Someone just commented and bumped it.

Might be a stupid question. But do you have to pay for these movies?
If yes, why not just use the regular Netflix service.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.

If you have a Netflix account then you can stream "Watch Instantly" movies over the phone, just like you can on the computer or Roku box.

i thought the deal was that you'd need a phone with the right drm capabilities before being allowed to stream? Not saying it won't get hacked for other phones, but i'm a little skeptical that we'll be able to just pull an apk and get streaming.

Just downloaded and tried it with my Atrix and Netflix account. Streaming is allowed and videos start to load, but after a few seconds screen goes white, then flashes back to Netflix main page.

Streaming is not allowed. The app hasn't even gone official yet. The app is trying to stream but it can't because it's not enabled yet.

You guys see the new netflix app on the evo forums.

[APP] Netflix from LG ROM Dump

Could be an interesting way to manage your que on the fly but until netflix fixes their standardization codec issues with android thats probably as far as we are going to get
It wouldn't let me watch anything. I got excited for a second. It said "sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. (1005)" I wonder if anyone has any idea's on how to fix this.

How did you install it? I tried installing it through Root Explorer on rooted stock and got a parsing error. Froyo and above only maybe?
Edit: Installed w/out issue using Root Explorer on my DROID. I can't believe there's still no Netflix queue management other than from 3rd party apps. Although once the streaming gets the "go" button, it'll be a slick app. I was given the option to resume an instant movie I was just watching on my Tivo but it started loading then took my back to the instant queue page.
The streaming failure has nothing to do with codecs. Netflix has a DRM protection implemented on the app that currently only supports a very limited amount of hand selected processors and firmware. In order to enable streaming were going to have crack the DRM. *braces for a long night*

Update, it looks like if we can get the lib files for the apk that seem to be missing, you can create a work around with a modified app.

You don't need a dual core......you "need" a chip with baked in DRM.....or patience to wait for someone to break the DRM.

Hey, np. Been wanting netflix fot some time myself, so I keep up on the state of things.
Here's the whole story(as I understand it). Netflix wasn't allowed to put out anything for android or any linux, due to lack of integrated DRM. The new chips that are coming out have a DRM scheme baked in at the hardware level.
What this means for us...gonna have to wait for someone to create a method to lie to the app, telling it that the DRM is present. Also, there will need to be a software based replacement for the DRM module, for decoding the stream.
You would think they would give up on DRM. If they can make it, someone will break it.

Technically the release worked, but Netflix killed it at their end, so no other devices could use it. Once they turn it back on.... who knows.

Just Return My Nook Tablet due to Flash Video Streaming issue.

I picked up my pre-order Nook Tablet from local B&N store right after work today. But unfortunately after playing with it for a while i began noticing some flickering issue with flash streaming videos (most amazon video and youtube video i tried suffer from the same issue to some degree). I took the NT back to to B&N store and talked with a nook specialist, and we try the same video on 2 other demo NT unit on the counter, and they also have the problem.
We agree that this is most likely an Adobe flash player app issue, and can be taken care off with a software update, but there is no telling how long it will take for B&N to release a software fix. So for now i decided to return the NT before my 14 day refund period.
To see the problem yourself, play this following youtube video in 720p, you should notice the video flickering issue within the first 10 second.
http://youtu.be/5n4V3lGEyG4
The good news is that this issue doesn't affect people who does not use the NT as their streaming video player (i have amazon prime instance videos that i stream alot). I also tested MP4 video directly loaded on to the NT, and it doesn't have the same flicker issue.
So i just want to let you guys know about this issue. I still think the NT is a great upgrade for my NC, but i will be holding off on repurchasing it until either B&N work the issue out, or CM7 come to our device.
Just tested the video you posted, with no issue.
No flicker at all.
Telling you, it's something with that batch of Nooks.
No flicker here at all, but the audio seemed to be just off a tad from the movement in their lips.

Ive seen that in a lot of music videos, thats just the effect they use.. slowed down movements..
Hmmmm, I tried that link from My Nook Tablet and it just stuck at "Loading Video..." before it finally give me an error that said:
"Activity Browser (in application Browser) is not responding."
lol.
You have 14 days, and you returned it within 20 hours?
ok.
Hmm so far DarkDvr seem to be the only person that detected a hint of the flickering i am talking about. I guess I am just super sensitive to the video flickering issue, since that is what I use my NC, and the NT mostly for. There is hope that soon as CM7 hits the NT, this issue will be resolved.
Also hopefully the news about the NT having a locked bootloader is not true. I really like the form factor of the NC and NT, having the "n" button next to the screen make turning the screen on for the NC and NT really convenient. But without CM7, NT is no where as useful as a full tablet as it can be.

I am seeing voice sync issues with YouTube videos as well as Ted Talks. I copied over an MP4 file and that seems to work fine. The voice seems to trail about 3-4 seconds from the video.

So we might actually be dealing with 2 separate problem with the NT building in Flash player (10.3.186). Not a good sign, hopefully B&N will release a firmware upgrade very soon to update the flash player to 11.1, and fix the 1GB user storage space issue.

Yeah the storage is kinda dumb, definitely don't like that. But, easily fixed once we have root.
Regarding flash - seriously, I have no issues with flash at all. Maybe you guys are watching some weirdly buggy flash videos somewhere..
I watched like 6-7 20-40 minute vids on youtube in bed last night - all in 720p HD. I didn't see any flickering or sound problems, it was beautiful and as good as it possibly can be.

The interview video - yes, there was very minor flickering there, but if you didn't tell me, maybe I wouldn't even have noticed.
Besides, that was the ONLY flash video that I've seen this happen in, so I'm willing to blame the player or that particular video.
I saw it too.. only noticeable in one area of the screen.. near the top of the video.. not noticeable unless it is full screen.. and only on youtube..
netflix looks perfect..
Every flash video that I have watched (YouTube, FOX and ABC) has had about a 2 second delay on the voices. It did not happen on a video that I have uploaded. Like the rest of you I am hoping that an update will be released in the near future and I REALLY hope that development on this thing starts. I love the form factor and the specs, but the device is really disappointing from an out of the box approach.
Mobile flash is quite disappointing.. there's a reason adobe is dropping it.. I've yet to have a good mobile flash experience on any device..

Since it's a paid app, asking for the full .apk is against the forum rules, isn't it? Search google, I found some cracked versions - but you need to realise that they are mostly older versions, which don't work all that well.
But if I remember right you can uninstall and reinstall the trial version and it will again work for 3 days. Have you tried that? If your trip is shorter then 3 days, or if you'll have internet access at least every 3 days, that should work fine.
Yea i have been uninstalling and reinstalling it every 3days to get a new trial going, only downside to that is that it puts a message on top of screen to buy full version while watching something. its annoying but i guess my little girl can deal w/it when its the only player that will play some of the files. ill just use mx player when it can handle the file i want. wish the developer and google would get the issue resolved keeping it from being available for purchase..

[APP] HBO GO with HDMI support!

Update: So apparently this has been cracked by HBOTroll1, all thanks to him. You can find his thread here. Unfortunately I have dumped my photon because of Motorola's failed promises. It was a great phone but I will never again by from this company. I also do not have HBO GO anymore because of this issue but I might get it again to try this apk. I am reposting a direct link to the apk here.
This has been confirmed to work on the Photon by others. Also if you have an MHL device to try this on that would be appreciated. I am not sure if MHL is a problem to begin with though...
Disclaimer: To my extremely limited knowledge reposting this does not violate any copyright laws, which is not my intention. My belief is that this is a lack of functionality in the program which has been fixed in this apk. If such is not the case, HBO please contact me so we can discuss this error in your program.
MinceMan said:
I just got HBO GO, I know Game of Thrones is f*****g awesome as **** *** *****!!!!
Anywhoo... I tried plugging the photon into my tv as the PS3 does not yet have an app and HBO GO refuses to play video with the HDMI plugged into it. Does anyone know any way to stop the app or the system of realizing that the signal is being sent out?
I would be willing to put in a lot of effort into getting this hack to work but I don't even know where to start. So any advice would rock!
RANT: I know they have a reason for disabling this but for realz I can just torrent their shows so when I'm paying I'm not going to try and rip off their stuff. I mean there's a reason that I'm paying!
RANT EXTENDED: I hate all of this DRM like bullsh!t that makes it more difficult to be a paying customer then a priate. I mean you can just go to isohunt or thepiratebay and search for game of thrones 720p. Then download the playstation media server and install the extra codecs and whatnot they recomend. This will let your computer transcode the video files so that the ps3 can output the video over your network. Wifi N can handle the video great and plug in a hundred foot Ethernet cable for $13 and get beautiful streaming with 5.1 surround sound.

Unfortunately I don't think there is any kind of workaround for this. I remember having the same issue. Think I tried running HBO from browser in Webtop mode but can't remember if it just didn't work or if it worked and the video was bad quality.
Probably better off downloading vid from the net and installing to view locally.
what we need is to get our hands on the earlier version of the app
I've heard people report it USED to work using a combination of the first release of the app and something called Xternal Display (which just mirrors the image on the screen.)

I'm guessing that it check the version number and would want you to update. Though if anyone has an older apk I would love to try this out!
I have version 1.3.1, I just installed version 1.7.1 and installed this version and it still plays fine, haven't tried hdmi out using version 1.3.1 yet. But I'll upload it tomorrow, I'm away from my computer right now
I got it working perfectly
I used splashtop on my Macbook which also works on PC to get it working everytime without fail. I have a video on youtube that shows me doing it but I am a newb so I can't post link. lol
sorry everybody, i thought the thread was dead but here is the hbogo 1.3.1 apk, just fyi it gives out the original error message saying that there is something wrong, not the new one stating the program doesn't allow hdmi out.

Yes, it is a silly question, IMO. But in one sense it is a VERY important one. With all of the "stay at home" orders, we have more an more people depending on streaming for entertainment. About the only thing to do. This is causing major bandwidth problems for the entire internet. Europe has gone so far as to ban 4k streaming from providers such as Netflix. So, if you can't even tell if Netflix is 4k, then why in the name of all that's holy, are people WASTING bandwidth in order to use something that makes so little difference!!!!!!!!! :crying:

It is only "the way of the world" for the me generation. I'm 80 yrs old and it certainly is not the way of the world I was raised in. I was a little kid during WWII and even our little pittance of an allowance went into buying stamps for our war bonds.
Got my tablet today but when i started the app it says update it but playstore says it is not compatible with my device.
