hi all I was just curious if anyone knows if the new Netflix app is working on the Thunderbolt or not. I assume it would but the thunderbolt is not listed on the netflix web site as a supported phone for this app, even though 3 other HTC phones are listed and are older tech than the Thunderbolt. I tried to install it but they want me to start an account with them first and I'm not opening a Netflix account unless I know for sure this will work on My thunderbolt. I'd appreciate any information anyone has on this,.. thanks!!
there are hacked netflix APKs out there that work on the thunderbolt
I thought it was only working for cm7?

Confirmed. It works on CM7. You can get the .apk in the CM7 thread somewhere.
I take it you mean cyanogen Mod 7,.

You are correct.
I appreciate that,.. now next,,, 4 things,..
1. what's the best way to Root the HTC Thunderbolt
2. how do I install a ROM, never done so before
3. can someone link me the cyanogen mod 7 forum where I can download the files for it
4. Can someone link me where to get the APK that works with Cyanogen mod7 for Netflix?

The Netflix app will not work with any ROMs based off the official Thunderbolt RUUs as of now.
I was so mad when my boyfriend's Incredible would stream Netflix, and my newer Thunderbolt WON'T. He doesn't even use his phone. He fixed it so he can use wireless tethering..and uses his ipod touch! That's what made me so pissed off about it. I actually want to be able to watch Netflix on mine! Maybe one day soon =(
yeah This fairly well annoys me as well.. I purposefully bought the highest end phone I could find with the latest technology and it can't run the netflix app while the older models can,.. sounds kinda backasswards to me... really bugs me
Would love to have this working. Til then I guess I'll just have to use it on my DX

If you are rooted you can trick the app into thinking you are using one of the phones that are listed. I think i read about the trick on android central if i find the link i will post it.

Don't think so, so far its only working if your running CM7 I believe.
Has anyone on here used CM7? I loaded it one day and nothing really worked on it. I couldn't get on the internet or anything... sounds like to a waste to run CM7 just to use netflix
Netflix does work on cm7 and will be supported on the thunderbolt soon. The reason why it wasn't initially is because the phone is new and Netflix didn't have time to test it on our devices. Just give it some time and you all will be rewarded.

My understanding is that they are waiting til after the Revolution comes out to activate it for LTE phones. Its one of the selling points of the Revolution so it will probably be exclusive to that for a month or so. Just speculating though.
OK. I apologize for the repeat question, but there seems to just be way too many threads with this mentioned, and way too much sifting for me to find the answer.
I am running Das-bamf gingerbread, de-sensed stripped (which is "wicked" awesome) and I am having a problem both sending and receiving MMS. I tried going into MMS settings and changing the source from Internet to Verizon, but to no avail. Does anybody else know of a solution?

I already have an exact duplicate of this thread open, literally same problem same rom same radio etc. Why open a new one? This needs to be consolidated and focused on in one big thread. So far I'm getting mixed reports. Some people say it works fine. Others say the same no MMS of any form. So idk what to tell you.
I for one know I am tech savvy and am very comfortable with command line and working my way around software, and I know I did everything fine. So I would really like to know what magical rainbow the people who have it working are floating along on, because I'd like a ride too.
I would have posted on your thread but it was like six on three AM and I was on my first cup of coffee.
I got mms working in gingerbread but I has to switch to Cyanogenmod. O only switched becauseI couldn't get my batt to charge with the dasbamf. I will most likely go back when both those issues are worked out

I am currently on update 4.5.1a-1 sun 154 and for some reason the new market will not allow me to see all apps when searching. I have uninstalled updates and then I can see all apps. The problem is that it updates after I close the market to the newest 3.1.5. I am not rooted and wanted to see if there was a fix for this.
Anyone else seeing this issue. In particular when I search for go launcher ex themes, I get 3700 some odd apps but can only see maybe 20 of them.
Yeah I got that too...

If this is happening to new users than something is wrong. I am assuming your saying to swap to another Gmail account and then choose the first one as default. In a sense I'm guessing its refreshing your Google account. Would a hard reset do the same?
I have only one google account and it is stilll doing it

It's happened a few times to me. I found that uninstalling updates from manage apps, and letting it update itself works. Might not update right away, but it will eventually.

I'm going to try a hard reset even though I really don't want to. Ill report back how it works.
Hard reset dis nothing but cause me more work. I really want to get this fixed. I might have to flash the newest build on the developer side
Although I have an rooted HTC Desire I'm coping with the same problem. A few days ago my market self updated to 3.1.5 and from then on I have this problem.
To fix this I gone through all the missing installed apps form the market on the market webpage (from PC) and installed them from there. They updated so I didn't had to uninstall then reinstall and thus re-setup everything up. Some apps I reinstalled as well but whatever I did It was only a temporary solution. After a while all those apps went missing again.
I hope someone would fix this.

Thia seems to just be an issue or bug on the new market in general because my Evo 3d was doing the same thing. Im glad this is not just happening on the Photon. Im sure google will push and update.

I'm having the same feeling that this is Google's fault. I only want to know if this is happening on unrooted devices as well, namely if it does, then the answer is clear, it's a Market bug. Can someone confirm this issues on unrooted devices?

Yes some searches limit the amount of apps that can be seen. It will say for example 400 appear but you can only see a very small amount of them. This doesn't happen on the old market.
Is it just me or is anyone else no longer getting notifications when there's updates in the new market? Yesterday had a few apps to update and a couple more today but never got any notification. Luckily I happened to randomly check my apps and saw them..

Uh yeah the notification has been checked, its still checked, data/cache has been cleared several times, still no notifications (sorry not an inexperienced underage noob over here). Just had 3 more updates too about 10 minutes ago.
Can anyone think of anything of actual use to try? Are you guys that still get them running stock or third party roms? Mines Samsung's stock 2.3.4 with the stock kernel. Its rooted but other then that no mods whatsoever...

Sorry - simplest answer is often it. So, rooted, unrooted? Stock ROM or other? Have you tried uninstalling Play and installing from APK posted somewhere here? Are these paid or free apps? And (since it's been biting me lately) were they installed from Market originally or from Amazon, getjar, or something else? Oh, and wifi or 3g (i.e. both on, just wifi, just 3g).
One more stupid one, but considering Google, have you tried just waiting 24hrs plus and see if maybe you're just beating it to the punch? You could try loading AppBrain, which runs around 24 hours behind for "seeing" updates, and if it shows up there before Play shows it, then there's definitely something off.
Let me know and I'll dig some more...
Most of the info you just asked for was already posted and you even quoted in my reply above. And its any app, paid or free, wifi or not, ever since Play came out. There's no magic to it. I'm simply not getting any notifications when there's updates even though its on.

Hey all,
There's been quite a few reports of people getting duplicate SMSes in the ViperDNA ROM thread. I think I have, unfortunately, found the cause. The other day, I got a SMS from someone not on my contact list/nor anyone I recognized at all. It was like spam email, but from SMS with a link to some site to boot. I brushed it off and just deleted the message. I was reading Android Police's new article on Android anti-virus apps. I was surprised to see my $15 Kaspersky app doing so poorly, so I uninstalled it and installed the #1 rated TrustGo. I did a scan and it found a "High Risk" threat in HTCMode. I followed the link provided by the app and, sure enough, Google has acknowledged the vulnerablility.
This vulnerability is being kept very close to Google's chest, so you don't find much about it doing a search for it. It certainly isn't getting a whole lot of press, but it's gotten some.
I tried to delete the app via TrustGo, but it failed. So went into Titanium Backup and froze the app and then was able to uninstall it. I've rebooted a couple times since uninstall and there doesn't seem to be any repercussions from getting rid of it. I highly recommend you do the same.
Just a heads-up. Protect your shiny DNA and your personal info/data,
Doc

Perhaps HTC has nothing to do with this software and (as if they care) the developers are trademark infringing when they use it in the app. They merely use the HTC name to legitimize their software and make you think it should be on your phone (some Sense software.) I'm sure on the S3 it's called SamsungMode or TouchMode and tries to make it look like it's part of TouchWiz.
If HTC did create this software, then the SMiShers have just found a way to exploit a vulnerability in the software as they did with other brands. As the video and write-up details, this is not HTC-specific; but Android-wide.

Neither was I until yesterday and I was quite pissed a free app outperformed one I paid $15 for. When it found the vulnerability my anger turned to humility and concern.
All it does is allows apps to send u fake spam texts. I get that type of junk anyways without this apps help.
On the DNA I think its the HTCModeClient.apk. I'm gonna remove it on my Rom today and see if my text work normal.

So reading this seems really shady that they would do this. So I'm not rooted on this phone and I don't want to root because I enjoy this phone how it is. So obviously I can't freeze this so if I disable it, won't this be the same thing as freezing it?
