So, it's just been announced that certain phones have Netflix app for Android (HTC Incredible, Nexus One, and EVO 4G with Android 2.2 installed. It’s also supported on the Nexus S and Nexus One with Android 2.3 installed.) while others will have it eventually.
Is it possible to get this apk and try it on our phones? Its a free app, so I don't see why passing it out on XDA would be against the rules.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
(mods, if this is considered bad, idk why as its free and you still have to have an account, please just edit this link out)
Well, it installed and loaded perfectly.
I can also change my queue no issues, however, I cannot watch a movie. It gives an error about my device not being supported.
Maybe a hack job can fix?
If I understand right, we have to wait til sammy or verizon provides a DRM update to make the phone compatible. I don't believe you bypass it, though i am not a dev so I might be wrong.

I did as well and while it no longer gave me the "this device is unsuopported..." error, it FCed just after the login screen. Bummer.

Same on Fascinate. It would not work with the Nexus S setting at all. The HTC Setting gave me the same thing as Sophos1.
So....I installed the old leaked apk and was able to get past the login screen. It gave me the "device not supported' error only after I tried to load a show, but it never FCed. I am linking the file in case others have better luck than I.

1. Does anybody know what setting I need to change in order to have the SD cards open up automatically when the USB is plugged in? They show, I just need to click on "My Computer" to actually open them up.
2. Running Trigger 3.3 Beta 2, and unless I'm missing something the WiFi calling app is not included (or, is it, somewhere?). So, after finding one that installed (apparently created by Eugene) the build number says "FroYo.UVJK6.MacNut.R14.Final" and the Trigger version" says "Eugene373_Macnut_R14_Final". Clearly Trigger is installed. Anybody know why it says what is says though? TIA...
1.settings->applications --> usb setting ...(i think)
2.u can download bloater then you can get the t-mobile wifi calling app
press the thanks button if i helped

Your build has changed because wifi-calling requires edits to the build.prop, you are simply using the macnut build.prop now. If you want to use the old build.prop then add the edits to it instead.
Actually, if you ask Roman he will probably whip up a build.prop for you to add back in when he gets a chance.

Hi Jellette, great response/great ROM/team...It's not worth his time to do so, I know it's the right ROM, it was just a curiosity to solve. Thanks...

His post here is marked 3.23pm and his post on the original thread saying it works on the Atrix is 3.24pm. That's not enough time to install and test, so I call BS!
I am installing right now and will test.
Script won't flash with CWM, so I'm going to just try installing the panorama.apk.
Application not installed is message I get when trying to run apk.
I can't get it to install.
<edit> Managed to flash a modified fix.zip file. Trying to install apk now. Application installed. Trying to test now.
I didnt use the script. I placed the files within the zip manually, set permissions, rebooted. Then installed the apk.

I used modified script from the following:

App starts, but when I begin panning/recording I get FC like you.
@Chubby.........please post a panoramic picture you have taken, as you seem to be the only person to get this working on the Atrix.
I too got an error in cwm, the modified .zip worked. Thanks. On boot up "live logcat" is showing alot of extra pink text, not sure what that means, maybe nothing since Im using the lite version.. Anyways, apk installed. App chrashes on "shoot" too. But the led flashlight works haha.
I don't think it will work for Atrix. There is a SIGILL signal generated by /data/data/com.sonyericsson.panorama/lib/libGmvPanoramaAndroid.so because of unsupported processor instruction.
The code disassembly at address 0x1dc04 of libGmvPanoramaAndroid.so shows:
.text:0001DC04 VLD1.8 {D24-D25}, [R2]!
.text:0001DC08 VLD1.8 {D20-D21}, [R12]!
.text:0001DC0C VLD1.8 {D22-D23}, [R2]!
.text:0001DC10 VLD1.8 {D18-D19}, [R12]!
VLD is an Advanced SIMD (NEON) instruction and Atrix's processor is non-NEON that's why it generates an error when executed and terminates the process.

Maybe he was too early to post that it was working when he saw the app running but without testing the actual picture taking.
I tried running this with Chainfire3D and a couple plugins, same results: Crash on capture.

There was no testing. The app FC's on Atrix as soon as you try to use it!
Okay so the linked post was updated with more supported phones. The Atrix is not one of them. I wont get a chance to try these updated files until tonight. If anyone else does try them please let us know if they are working. I will report back after tonight.
Guys, check this thread I posted
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15065554#post15065554
All credit goes to ASASlide
This is a possible fix for the wi-fi issues that plagues some users that use CM7. Well thanks to a great guy, ASASlide, a fix has been found. This is his steps.
1. Download the Salsa Slide Beta rom (4.0 has worked best for me).
2. Download the cm7 rom of choice (I'm on ver 133 of the nightlies currently).
3. Open each rom zip file in separate windows with your favorite zip file manager.
4. Navigate in each window to /system/etc/wifi. You will notice the cm7 directory has fewer files, plus a subdirectory called "softap".
5. Notice the files in the cm7 wifi directory. Overwrite all of these with the files of the same names from the Salsa Slide Beta window.
6. In the cm7 window, now navigate into the "softap" directory.
7. Notice the files in the cm7 softap directory. Overwrite these with the files of the same names from the Salsa Slide Beta window.
8. Save the modified cm7 zip file, and flash to the Slide.
You will have to repeat the process for each new cm7 version you want to flash.
Same disclaimer as usual. No one is responsible if your phone dies.
If this thread is a nuisance or you want to make new people to look through tons of posts on the nightly thread, please PM me, I will tell a mod to remove this thread right away.
Fix attached on this post-the wifi fix in a nice, handy, simple .zip file that can be flashed in clockworkMOD v2.5.0.7. I need help with the edify scripting if you guys want it for clockworkMOD v3.0.0.5

I was just abut to do this last week, but with CM6 and CM7.
Good job though, although "ASASlide" should have posted this thread.
I can confirm this works!

I get that all the time when I flash a new nightly. Well I flashed a new nightly when I first tried the fix.
Also I'm in the process of making an update.zip for the fix. Just testing it out to see if I actually got the update-script right
Can't flash it in ClockworkMod v.3.0.0.5. I signed it using Amend scripting and now with edify scripting. Help?
EDIT: Ok so I put the update.zip for ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7 and ran that from ClockworkMod v3.0.0.5. I flashed the zip but got an error
Code:
SDCARD:wifi-fix-signed.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
E: Syntax error in update script Installation aborted.
I'm using this update-script
show_progress 0.1 0
coy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM: should be "copy" darn typo
show_progress 0.2 10
and there is a blank space after the final line. Any help will be great.
Found my mistake... I bolded it for you guys so you can laugh at me.
I think GPS in CM7 is the bigger problem for me. Wifi is ok, maybe a little bit worse than other ROM like Salsa Slide, but acceptable. I am looking for a GPS fix for CM7 but thanks anyway for the efforts with this fix.
Thanks for posting this... i was reluctant to flash any nightly because of the wifi issue... i will now.. thanks again!
Thanks so much for this. Does indeed fix the wifi problem, but does anyone else get the problem where they're not getting email notifications? I have to manually refresh my gmail to get new mail to show up. Is this an issue with the fix or the nightly? I flashed the nightly that you put up.

Thanks, remember to thank ASASlide as well. He found this fix. I just messed up making a flashable zip
Only problem I found is that I can't do the built in android wifi tether (the one in wireless settings)
Can anyone confirm this? Also I need some feedback to see if other wireless tether apps work (like barnacle and wifi tether for root)
EDIT: wifi tether for root works for me. I tried 2.0.8 pre1 and it worked. I didn't try the new 3.1 beta
Wifi tether does not work, so this isn't really a fix.
I downloaded wifi tether for root and it does not work for me. What settings are you using?
Come to think of it, this makes sense. Wifi tether doesn't work on salsa either.
Edited to add, I am testing something out. For the record, I am playing around with the stable 7.1. I did the gps "fix" from the other thread and this wireless fix.
With the wifi folder you provided, I experimented and saw that keeping the files you used, but bringing back the softap folder and its files from the CM7 folder brought back the wifi tether. At first my wireless seemed buggy again. I rebooted and now it seems fine again. I am currently watching netflix on the phone using wireless and it hasn't stopped once, which it was doing constantly just the other day. I'll update my experiments.
Does anyone have a version of VVM newer than 5.3.4.42 that can share the APK?
I'm using that version on CM11 and it's hit or miss whether or not it ever actually downloads the message. Half the time the only way i know i got one is because i get those dumb 9016 text messages. I assume those messages are supposed to get intercepted by VVM and it uses that as a trigger to go out and download the message, but it don't seem to happen. or perhaps i'm just not installing the APK right. have just been transferring it to the phone and installing it like you'd side load anything else.
i've tried putting it in /system/app and fixing permissions on it but then it doesn't seem to work at all.
