Netflix 2.0 not working over WiFi - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Anyone else having this issue? Can navigate app, but when u go to stream it gets stuck on red netflix loading screen endlessly.
Left it there for 1+ hour. Works okay on 3g but quality is horrible for me since data is so slow.
Downgraded to 1.8.1 and it works great. Guess I can stick with that for working movies.

My WiFi is crap here so I mostly use 3g, I notice a bump in quality with the newest update. I have yet to try using WiFi

I am having the same problem with mine. For some reason the update to 2.0 has stopped all of my android devices except my wifes gs2 from working inside wifi. So weird.

Working fine over 3G and WiFi.... Not sure whats going on with you...

Finally got an error. 29 or 39, I was asleep when it finally have me an error after 2 hours or so.

I have never gotten netflix to work on my phone. I can get to the log in screen and it will never accept my user id or password.
Rooted EVO baby

Just rooted and s-offed, flashed New firmware and rom based off new firmware. Cleared all caches and netflix 2.0 still not working over WiFi.
Thinking maybe it is just my work WiFi since it has been funky with other stuff. In changelog it says fixed WiFi optimization or something of the sort. That has to be it since 1.8 works perfect.
Will have to try another WiFi spot but I don't really go anywhere but work that has WiFi for more than a few minutes.
Anyone got any other ideas?

[Q] Youtube not working?

My YouTube app is behaving horribly. When I try to search and watch something it plays a random video...Most notably its been playing like lil Wayne videos instead of something like a video from machinima.
Is mine a defect?
Noticed that with the display model too. Nexus S sitting next to it when both pushed at same time took like .5 sec for Nexus S and 7 or 8 sec for the 3D...same once list loaded, selected the same video at same time and it was about 10 sec behind the Nexus S, and yes both were running on 3G mode not 4G. Needless to say I didnt buy one today even though I drove 60 miles round trip to do so
Did u do the ota I haven't had that issue been having fun on YouTube and the net haven't done the ota update yet.
I did a reboot and it seems to be working fine. This time though I am on WiFi instead of 3g.
clear data in app manager.

Yeah, I updated whatever HTC gave me.
Seems to be a problem with being on 3G. The same videos loaded up fine and played the video I wanted in WiFi, while if I was on 3G, it loaded for a while and then played a random video completely irrelevant to the one I chosen.
Argh. Anyone know Bestbuy's exchange policy?
Similar issue here. I went to market and searched for youtube. It did not show as installed so I installed youtube from the market (even though it was on the phone obviously) and everything works fine now. BTW...I had the problem after the OTA. Didn't check before.
I tried that and it still does not work properly..
It's perfect on WiFi while it plays a random video over 3G..

Question... Did root kill my 3g speeds?

So here's what's up. What I'm wanting here is feedback, and to vent a bit too I suppose. The question... How's root treating you after the first week? Here's my answer...
Lead up. I got my 3D prior to release date via Sprint premier customer deal. Couldn't be happier with the phone. It was everything I expected it would be. Check my prior posts. My experience was sweetness. Then came temp root. Sweet. Got my root apps back and played around with oc and all was good. Tried the various speed test apps out there just for $hits and giggles and my 3D was right up there at the top of the list. More importantly it was running smoothly and was very responsive.
Fast forward to last Friday. Full root! The process went flawlessly aside from the error 16 deal most of us experienced, but that was easily fixed. Went with Clockwork recovery at first, then decided to see what twrp was all about. Nice. No complaints whatsoever. Was out of town for the weekend so figured I'd just run stock rooted. Here's where things started getting weird. While on the road I decided to play around with the roam control app (a root app) to maximize my signal. Seemed to work, then I noticed that 3g was cutting out on me. I thought roam control first thing. So I disabled the app and that did seem to do the trick. Now I'm nearing my destination and I need some directions for the last bit of the trip. I prefer Telenav, always works well for me. Except this time I keep losing Gps. What's worse is when trying to confirm that it's just the location by having my wife use her og Evo... It worked fine. No gps issues at all. Now I'm getting annoyed.... So once I arrived at my destination I bust out the 3D and go to Google maps to look up a couple of things and test it in a place I know has good signal and I can't even get a map to load. Again, the og Evo loads up as usual. I didn't have a whole lot of time to mess with it so that's just how it was the rest of the trip with gps and 3g... Spotty at best.
When I get back home and get a minute to work with my phone the first thing I'm wanting to try of course is to flash a good rom. I'm convinced that had to be the issue. So I pick one and go to download and I soon realize my download speeds have gone to $hit. I mean I waited 5min and I only had 1% downloaded. I had to use the pc to get the rom downloaded. Got it though, wiped and flashed no problem. Didn't fix the download speeds. This is the same on you tube and the market as well. Tried several roms and wipes... No go. Also noticed that when turned off the screen for the night, things like the clock would shut down to... Hence no alarm in the morning. Texts wouldn't come through during this time either. I'd turn the screen on in the morning and get text alerts from texts that came in right after I went to bed. The phone would also start roaming for no reason. Just a barrage of small issues like that. I tried loosing oc and some root apps I've always used (auto killer, setcpu for example) wipes, data profile, ##3282#, and called Sprint to refresh the signal. Nothing worked. So I unrooted and tried it all again. Still no. Finally took it to the repair center and all they tried failed as well, ended up having to replace it. Data speeds are back to normal and all the other issues are gone. I'm hesitant to root again until I get some feedback. I know it could have been the device itself, but it was working prior to root. In the back of my mind I suspect the error 16 deal may have screwed something up. Whatever it was it was irreversible as far as I can tell...
it sounds like something in EPST got screwed up.
Luckily nothing like that for me. Just lost the ability to watch Hulu
Edit: My YouTube ONLY works with Wifi. It no longer works with 4G or 3G
You had the signal defect phone. Nothing to do with root. Few people have had this issue. I did and it was prior to root.

Can you download from the market? Or roms from here? I could from the market, just took longer than normal. From here there was no point in trying. I left a rom downloading all morning, about 3 and a half hrs and I only got 32% downloaded.

So is that typical with that defect? For it to work for a time and then just peter out?
My phone no longer charges when off, fine otherwise but hate leaving in on all the time.

Bumping....
I know for sure rooting shouldn't do anything whatsoever to data signals, unless you changed something deliberately. From my personal experiences with 3G, it will get crappy at times and most of the time not reliable. I use a music stream app while I'm out and about and I get tons of pauses while I'm constantly driving around the city. Well that's until I get to a place that has good coverage.

happened to me as well, was getting about .7-.9mbps on 3g before s-off and after i can't get over .13
haven't bothered to try fixing it yet as i'm on wifi 99% of the time, but by the looks of things from your post i'll probably just have to get it replaced

Same thing happened here except I really don't want to go have to go get it replaced. Is there a fix out there?
People, before you bring your phone back to Sprint be sure to call for your data reset signal or whatever they call it, tell them things are moving slow and you need a reset or something...if that doesn't work then take it in.
Mine is working great after root and s-off. I also didn't temp root, and didn't even do s-off until a couple days after it was out. I get 1.4 down and .3 up. Good speeds for 3G in my opinion.

Wonder if temp root had something to do with it then? Did you get the error 16 message when you rooted?

Good question. That's the one thing I didn't try. Although I think running the ruu reflashes the radios as well... Don't quote me on that though.
I forgot to mention also 3G signal indicator doesnt show when its connected at 1x speed, 2G or whatever you call it. This is sprints way of having us think where always on 3G.

I have been using the pre-release eng/dev radio. I have seen my speeds in low-signal conditions improve a lot...from 100-300kbps to 400-800kbps, and in high-signal areas where the network isn't congested I have seen as high as 2.7mbps. I tested back and forth between all 3 radios, a lot... the pre-release radio came out on top every time, most of the time by far.
Your mileage may vary, but, mine didn't and a few others in development had similar results. I'm not sure if that means I'm using more battery--it doesn't seem like it. But I wouldn't update to a newer radio without some very compelling evidence that it would be at least as good.
I posted about this problem the first day of S-OFF and how to fix it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16130344&postcount=298
Basically you need to trigger ANOTHER hands free activation AFTER you call sprint to get past Error 16.
That will fix you lack of 3G. You are stuck in 1X. Display always says 3G even when you are 1x.
I think the first hands free activation occurs when the phone has been flagged with the security fault and it does not setup your profile correctly.
Some Sprint Reps might reactivate your phone in the process of fixing Error 16.
Very easy to fix.

Anyone know if the Moto Bionic can be used for a Hotspot for the Touchpad? I had the Droid Inc before this and it did not work with that phone.
And the issues are back. Haven't modified anything and it stopped working. I think I've grown to strongly dislike this tablet. If only the galaxy tab had a sd slot.

The tablet is a fantastic device! However i do feel your pain with the wifi issues but this is still beta!
I've found that changing the channel on my wifi appears to limit the disconnects quite a bit.
Currently running on channel 4 2.427 Mhz but have read a lot of ppl running channel 10 so will test that out if i get more drops
Hope this helps

I was having issues trying to connect to the home WiFi. It would Attach just fine but as soon as the device either went to sleep or after a reboot it would fail.
I did a Google search and found a thread. They said it was the WiFi Channel If you have your WiFi Access Point set to Channels 1-5 you were fine 6-11 it would fail as I described above....
Sure enough, my was set to 11, to get away from the rest of the neighborhood.
So I set mine to 1, removed the connection from the Touchpad and re-added it and have not had a problem since.
Before I changed it, it would take forever to get it to release the connection. I just kept hitting "Wait" rather than "Force close" it would take several minutes but would eventually come up and allow me to Forget the network.
It worked

I was not having the wifi troubles that two other touchpad owners I know were having. I installed Android on both of their devices, but couldn't figure out what to do to fix it and it was making me insane. Finally, we reset all our routers to a channel below 5 and found that they all connected to wifi well, HOWEVER, I found a better solution. I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but this must be a setting I fiddled with on my TP, that the other two TP owners had not fiddled with.
Go into Wifi Settings, then click the Menu button at the bottom left (the three bars)... click Advanced then click Regulatory Domain. In my touchpad, I had clicked on the 11 Channel option. On the two touchpads that could not regularly connect to wifi, neither had a selection made whatsoever under "Regulatory Domain." After clicking "11 Channels," all three touchpads can connect to wifi with no issues AT ALL, no matter the channel.
I almost can't believe this hasn't been posted in other forums yet, because it seems to be the key and much easier than setting every router you want to connect to, to a different channel.
Please let me know if this works.

Wi-fi Flaky after ICS Update

I installed the update to ICS. The official one that was leaked. Everythings works great except one thing. I use wifi calling at work because of no service. What I am finding is that the wifi kics off and I have to disable then reenable wifi for it to reconnect. Has anyone else ran across this issue? It is really frustrating.
Yup it's a leak, wait for the oat so they can work all the bugs out.

I know I have as well, I believe it's a known issue that hasn't drawn a lot of attention.
My WiFi is amazing, the range has increased a lot. My bedroom used to have a week 2 bar signal and now I get 4 bars constantly.
Although sometimes the wifi does drop off once in a blue moon, so there is something wrong.
same here everything works amazing with me

Which tether app for 10.2

Running cm 10.2 and I can't seem to get WiFi tether to work..running the 3.3. The built in cm hotspot seems to work..devices connect but get no internet
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
wifi
Ya i ran to this issue for the last year. Some peoples phones work with the native wifi mine never has. I have tried the trevemod, wifi was less then 2mb. Then i found the 3.2 and 3.3 versions of tether. It takes a lot of tweaking to finally to get it to work but they do work. Problem i always had is if i used my phone as it was going sometimes it would turn it off. And after an hour the data would be less. So i would have to reboot phone then i would get over 20mb again.
So not sure if it works on 10.2 but i came a crossed a thread in the OMni 4.4.2 Rom posed by SIlentstyder. found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2495109&page=24
He came a crossed it for use with the NExus 5 via sprint. There are step by step screen shots how to do it. I gave it a shot and it worked like a charm. I have full 30Mb LTE + utilizing the native tether. It worked on the OmniRom. Then i went back to see if worked on DirtyUnicorns 4.4.2 and it worked there as well. Havent tried it on the sense roms but would assume it works there as well.
Only issue i had found is with dirtyunicorns rom, which i like the best out of the kit kat roms, is the internet works fine. i can connect any device but i cannot open my work email on any device connected to it. as well as that vpn doesnt work. So i went back to OmniRom and i can do this no problem. So not sure what thats about. I havent seen any post that have that same issue. So hopefully there will be an update soon and i can try it again.
Give it a shot, just make sure to save a copy of the settings.db if it doesnt work.
