Here's the new Netflix app that was just released for the evo. i installed it and it plays audio but no video. maybe someone can figure out how to get it work to work for our phones. it says it has G2 support figured it would work since the Shift is just like the G2.
Worked for one movie.
I just loaded the apk attached by the OP.
Worked on my Shift!! I just played a Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie and got video and sound. MST3K:Hercules Against the Moon Men
Tried other movies, which didn't work -- just went back to the queue.
EDIT: Okay, just resumed the same movie and it stopped working. Tried resuming the same movie 3 times, and it worked again, then stopped. Not seeing any pattern.
Yeah, it is not working for me ether. I get to the netfix loading screen and then it just brings me back to the queue.
I tried several other movies. The Sorcerer's Apprentice also worked, but only after attempting to load it 4 times. When the movies does start, it works perfectly. If you stop it, then try to resume, it may or may not work. I guess we'll just have to wait for Netflix to get the bugs out.
i read somewhere that they edited the build.prop for on a nook color and got it to run perfect
I got it to work perfectly. I am running bcnice20 Desire Z port which may or may not have an effect on netflix running. I played many different shows from my queue and searching. Thought I would share for what its worth.
i got it running on my rom. gotta have flash 10.3, and drm.apk, and the other 2 apks that start with pmt. no build.prop editing necessary. audio and video. sense rom only.

Can you attach the additional apk's you are saying are necessary. Trying to get this running for a friend on his shift but I don't have the device with me so I am just downloading to my evo then transferring files when i see him.
The flash update alone should get it working. That's how it is across the fourms and etc. Stock is fine. Problem occurs when its CM7

Well I am on my third Gingerbread rom (6th overall rom) and I finally have gotten the Vulkano to stream in all situations. Last night I downloaded CM7's nightly build 58 and flashed my G-Tablet. Installation was very smooth using clockworkmod and all 128 apps were restored using Titanium back with no problems. I had wiped and formated just about everything I could before doing the installation. After that I went to the market and downloaded the Vulkano player and at last sucess. I was able to stream from the vulkano both locally and over the internet. I realize some other people have had sucess using Corwins rom (CM7 based), and that was going to be next if this did not work. I had previously tried G-Harmony with no sucess, and then Vegan Tab GB with limited succes. The strange thing with Vegan Tab was it would stream over the internet however it would not stream when I was home locally. Watching the bandwidth I was getting at home the software player seemed to choke everytime it was over 1 mb/sec. When I was out of the house and connected over the internet it worked fine at speeds anywhere from 300-900k. This leads me to believe the hardware accelleration that is now included in CM7 is working with this app allowing it to run over my local network. Another thing that I have struggled with is getting recorded shows downloaded to my G-Tab. Well I still can not get it to work with any rom and the vulkano player but I have a work around for now. By down loading the videos using UPNPdownloader (avlalable in the market for free) you can then watch the recordings using MOBOPlayer or Rockplayer. Now for even better news when Rockplayers asks if you want to use hardware decoding and you answer yes the videos run close to flawlessly. On the other two GB roms it obviously would not work using the hardware decoding. They did run on the roms using the software decoding but they would stutter even at the lowest recorded resolutons. When playing high quality recordings they would be unwatchable due to the delay in video processing in which the sound which was a full 3-5 seconds ahead of the picture. This would make all sense since the Vulkano records in the H.264 video format and if I am not mistaken that is the portion of hardware accelleration that is working. Well I hope this helps someone else.
Lastly I do miss the Vegan Tab interface, the VT Launcher was very smooth and the rom was much more tablet oriented. I can not wait until gojimi includes this in his rom since the rom is CM7 based if I am not mistaken. Please excuse any typos and good luck.

Interesting. I have a vulkano, and am running vegantab with pershoot's latest overclocked kernel - I have not gotten around to getting it set up, but under that other OS (er, iOS?) I would pull over 2Mbit/sec (more like 3) for local HD content, and 1.5+ for remote (yay for comcast HSI) - I should test it out. I'll let you know what I see tomorrow!

Sounds good I am interested to see what happens. I am currently streaming between 1.6 and 2.0 mb/secs locally using the wireless router Verizion put in when I got Fios. My iphone streams locally between 300k - 600k usually.

VeganGinger just gives me a black screen and spinning "buffering" with the Vulkano inside the home. Meh. Not so good!
For the record, Vulkano (Monsoon) refuses to support G Tab and Android 2.2 at all. I'm now in a legal war with these clowns. be careful on CM7 as you may still encounter buffering quite often and screen lockups.
Vulkano issues on CM7 for Evo
I have the Vulkano player working flawlessly on my Nook Color running CM7.1 RC1
However, I cannot for the life of me get it working CM7 and my Evo 4G. Tried the stable and testing builds. I'm still debating if I really want to move to a nighly, but I might just do it to see if it works and restore back to 7.1 RC1.
BTW, I'm so happy they finally have a root process for the Evo 4G on Gingerbread!

Hello,
I am trying to make if possible the android vulkano application to work with 4.4.2 or Lollipop and stream while the screen is off.
This was possible with my 2.3.7. But with newer devices seems impossible. I am digging up some old vulkano posts incase somebody figured this out.
Thank you very much.
I am on rooted stock 1.2, netflix app does not properly login or when it does, it plays at like 3x speed, so what can I do to fix this?
You need to update your build.prop file. There are a few other threads on this as I was having the same issue. Sounds like Chipmunks movies...
Here are a few...

I used the following and it worked...
CM7 nightlys + Android 2.2 ROMs(Stock, Froyo, ect...)

Also, I'm not 100% familiar with stock 1.2 and Netflix. I am running CM7 nightlies with Dalingrin's OC.
I finally kinda got netflix to work on my mn'd 1.2, except the lack of video is kind of a bummer. I did the full build prop fix, which got me further than some of the other build fixes. Any thoughts?

I just got mine working, amazingly enough. I had the chipmunk sound issue with no video. Then I updated my build.prop to HTC Vision and it fixed the sound problems, but still had no video.
I found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105681
I left my build.prop as model: HTC Vision and manufacturer: HTC and installed the apk on the first page of the thread, mediaclient-1. It is working great now!
I guess everyone has difference configuration on their Nook Colors. I have rooted stock 1.2. From what I've read it seems to work easier for CM7 users.
My rooted Nook seems to loose the video depending on what day of the week it is. I can get it back by going into Manage Applications and hitting Clear data and/or Clear cache. However, I've yet to loose the video running under CM7 from the SD card.
Running Phiremod 6.2 the market version of Netflix plays flawless, audio & video.A little grainy for first few seconds then picture is great.

I just watched ghostbuster on my NC running (from sdcard) CM7.03 with Dal's 5/13 kernel. I watched for 10 minutes (gotta go) and I have not a single skip frame, and sound is fine (using headphone). It does drain the battery pretty quickly
Our little NC is really amazing... Hats off to the develops for their amazing work!
Doesn't show up in my Market. CM7 n100. Can't install it from the web either. Weird. It's the first app I've had a problem with over the market on my NC.
I couldn't find it in the market either, so I grabbed it on my EVO.
Here's the apk.
It just keeps getting better everyday with this device. Just when u think that's it!

I installed it and when I run it it says flash is missing (so I assume it uses flash). I installed flash but I still get the message to install flash when I try to watch a movie. DO I have to reboot after installing flash?
Edit: Did a reboot and it worked just fine, so I guess the reboot was needed.
Does this look like a slideshow for anyone else? I'm running cm7 n106 with Dal's latest OC and Flash 10.3, and the movies are unwatchable slideshows... :-(

Not sure what you mean by slideshow? It works fine for me. It got slightly jerky sometimes, but usually smoothed out again fairly quickly.

For me, the audio is fine, but the video looks like a continuous PowerPoint slideshow... even at a fixed 1200 MHz.
Very pixelated
Not getting a sharp image. Running at 1200 and still looking bad any ideas on how to fix this would help.
**It was only the commercial (HTC ad) before the movie that came out pixelated. Movie was fine although was getting minor skips here and there. **
doesn't wanna work for me when i try to play a movie it just stays on the loading screen
Plays pretty well for me on the CM 7.0.3 OC to 1300.
I do get some frame skipping here and there, but overall it's a pretty good experience.
Not as good as Netflix, but pretty watchable...
I don't get the frame skip on my Incredible.
Then again, this apk is not set up for tablets.
Lego
I get the blurry HTC add as well but when the movie loads...it looks fine.
Also...on the right side of the screen I get a vertical white line like it doesn't fit to the entire screen. Anyone else get that?
yeah, crackle, is running fine on my NC. I also have this vertical white line, is this normal? maybe I'll try to change my LCD density
Nightly 112, OC 6/18 kernel @ 1325, this just sits at the circle loading screen, rebooted as well, same thing.
This is Awesome! Thanks OP
I was having the endless loading circle and couldn't play a video, but after applying Aces hulu fix ,crackle is money now. A little pixlelated at first but smooth sailing from there, and I did see the white lines prior to the flash/hulu fix even without actually seeing video but its gone now.

Hi All:
So I've checked the different threads / forum topics and while some users have reported this issue on certain ROM's Q&A sections, I dont belive this to be a specific ROM issue as I have installed 2 different ROMS (VeganTab 7.1.0 and CM7 REPACKED - currently on CM7 repacked both ROMs are BL.2). I believe both roms are based on the same verison of droid.
With both ROMs, I;ve tried the following:
ISSUE:
With the newest Pandora installed, play a station. The 1st song plays fine, the 2nd song, play reaaaaallly slow. If you press the skip >> button, the next song play fine, the 4th song will play very very slowy
FAILED TO FIXES
1 - Change ROMS, by NVFlashing DETOX (on goodintentions website) partioning the hdd, doing wipes and flashing ROMs
2 - Cleared Data on Pandora, uninstalling Pandora and redownloading from the market
3 - restoring Pandora from TiBU, clearing Data and relog in.
On another note, I've notice HULU, doesnt play as well as it used to in a Default Browser, Dolphin and Puffin. You can start a show in any of them, video play back is choppy (audio is fine) and after the 1st commercial, the browser will freeze and lock up the device.
Other than that the both ROMS work fine but am looking for input on the issue to remain on these new versions of droid.
Thanks
anyone else experiencing these problems?
I have all these issues and would love to find a fix for it...
Im using VeganTab Ginger Edition right now, when playing Hulu the video will get choppy but the audio plays fine
When this happens sometimes the video will simply stop playing or switch to a black screen
the video will stop everytime the show starts up again after a commercial
sometimes the commercials will even have the video stop playing
If I change the video quality, switch from 288 to 360 to 480 and between when the video stops playing or freezes the video will return
I recently switched to vegan-ginger 7.1. I have the pandora issue but have not tried hulu yet.
I think a lot of them are having the pandora issue but have not seen any fixes for it.
I got the issue after 7.1 also - initially not every other song but in an attempt to resolve the problem I installed latest version Pandora app. Now the symptoms have worsened and I have the same issue - every other song plays slowly.
I tried installing the Hulu app - it plays OK but low res. Netflix did play one movie fast motion, but I did not associate this with the pandora issue and did not look closely.I have not had a repeat. Crackle and Youtube seem OK also.
I tried same fixes as nyciz - NG. Will try factory wipe this w/e - but to be frank i'm kinda getting tired of messing with it. Has anyone found a music app that is as good as pandora that works on vegan 7.1?
Ok so I got my issue resolved but it was by loading the older Vegan 7.0.0
This isn't a true fix but I get hulu and Pandora working.
Caution, this version has issue with new market. I froze old market with TiBu to resolve.

I have heard it is GB... but i run GB on my SGS4G and have no issues with Pandora. I don't want to role back to the earlier Vegantab.
I had "fixed" it once, unfortunately, i don't remember what i did.. (big help i know) If i am not mistaken, i used a difference kernel with the Vegan ROM... I have since tried a few diff ones to to avail.
I guess either the devs don't see this as an issue, or they aren't having it. Pandora is HUGE for me, i use it all the time... would love to have it working on my Tab...but i lack the patients, time, and knowledge to try to find a fix... HELP US DEVS AND ALL YOUR AWESOMENESS!
Pandora Songs Playing Slow as Well
I have a Viewsonic GTablet running CyanogenMod 7, internet solely through wifi, and I'm experiencing the same issue. I thought at first that Pandora was running a slow version of the song but I was mistaken. The first song will play normal and whenever I skip to the next song, the new song will play fine but if I leave it alone, it will play slow. Netflix is the only other streaming app that I've used and it hasn't had this issue. I'm extremely new to the Android platform so any help would be highly appreciated.
It's a bummer since I love Pandora.
Like I said in my post, either no one who has the knowledge to fix it cares, or they simply aren't having the issue.

Same issue with Pandora
I'm having the same issue with Pandora playing every other song slowly. Currently running Cyanogenmod 7.1.0.1. If I go back to running 7.0.3 then the Pandora app works fine. I've gone back and forth several times. I've tried removing data and uninstalling the app, but when I reinstall I get the same problem. I had wondered if it were something with the renaming on the device from harmony to smb_a1002, so I tried to change the build.prop. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any where with the problem.
Any input or help that we can get would be greatly appreciated.
Had no issues running Pandora on non Ginger Vegan. Updated to 7.1 yesterday and am having the exact 'slowness' issues stated above.
Amazon Cloud player is NOT having any speed/slowness issues...
Regular device music/playlist plays fine.

Ok guys and gals I think I found a fix:
I sideloaded the new pandora (not on market, just google it) Pandora 1.5.4 Black version. It seems to work fine with no slow down of the songs at least all day...will edit if it fails.
EDIT: AGGGHH it did it again I notice it works fine if you skip but if you let it naturally go to the next song it slows down. It was working fine earlier.......ok I give up....
Did not work for me either. Thanks for posting

Hey guys.. I don't know what's going on but I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm currently running WTSB 1.9 on my 3vo with a stock kernel and my netflix app just so that work well anymore. I used to have basically perfect video and sound on it.. Now the video is slowed down to what appears to be about half its regular speed but the audio just keeps on going at regular speed making it very unwatchable. This happens on 4g or WiFi.. Both of which used to give perfect results. Could it be the rom since I updated recently? Something else? Videos saved on my sd in HD still play perfectly so I know it's decoding right. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I don't know if the rom is at fault or not, My netflix works just fine, I am using Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.08.651.3_deodex from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321452 I have tried many roms always end up going back to stock, thanks to this thread it's easier to go back to stock and not have to restore my data either.
Only way you will know if it's the rom or not is to try another rom, then test netflix, if netflix works then it was the rom.
