[HTC Inspire 4G] bedwa:
I'm running into issues just trying to mix and match libs. I suspected as much, but I had to try. Next step is that I'm going to reach out to one or two of the rom makers to try and get help to make this work. I suspect that this will only be 2.3+ at the moment, but I'll cross 2.2 after this initial work is finished.....

Thank you guys for your patience while I'm desperately trying to work on this, (Or at least muddle through figuring it out. :P )

-B

Update: Looking at one kernel source sofar, it doesn't have the stagefright libs in it. It may have to be a complete rewrite of those libs and a hacking into the current ones with some decompiler looking into what needs to be changed over and hacked. Wish me luck!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
You're barking up the wrong tree. This is not part of the kernel source, but of the android OS source. I suspect that you'll have a tough time with this as you'll probably have to pull AOSP source and work from there. I too tried just copying libs, but I strongly suspect that the GB libc is too different from Froyo libc to be compatible (libstagefright*.so files are dynamically linked to libc and libm et al).
[HTC Inspire 4G] otakonx:
I run Miui so I'd definitely appreciate the effort! If anything, could you PM me what you did to patch the files? Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] acrossbetween:
I too am running miui, just up updated to today's update and the Netflix app doesn't work. If you can create a patch I would love to try it out if you want!
[HTC Inspire 4G] bedwa:
I'll be compiling from gb, rest assured on that. I call myself a pseudo-dev for a reason..... I'm still learning, everyday.

I'm only looking at GB sense at this pt. I was doubtful on froyo as it is.

Edit: Long story short, I'm going to try to use a decompiler and use that as a base to make the needed file, compile it and go from there. Wish me luck. It probably will only be compatible with gingerbread/sense 2.1 and higher, but I'm sure that was expected.
[HTC Inspire 4G] realawill:
It needs to be based on a 2.3.4 rom at this point.

Netflix Fix

Warning, this will only work on roms based on CM 2.3.4!

I am not responsible if you decide to take the deep dive and flash on another rom.

Steps to make Netflix work:

1. Uninstall Netflix.apk on your phone

2. Flash Netflix_Fix_1.zip

3. Install Netflix.apk

Your Netflix will now work.

Thank you, it works on MIUI

I hit a thanks button :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] otakonx:
Works on CM 7.0.3 but is very choppy when I tested it on WiFi. This was actually the same reason I stopped using PlayOn. Now I wonder if it's something with my phone! Regardless of my watchability, thanks very much for posting the fix!
[HTC Inspire 4G] yareally:
As an alternative to pulling from the android source, one could look at some of the other htc phones it works on with sense already, like the evo or incredible.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kizzmiazz:
OMG thank you my friend. I had netflix running perfect on cm7 but decided to instal MIUI for the first time and could not get netflix running for the life of me ( Im talking trying for like 5 hours straight lol ) then I found your post and at first it didnt work lol. All I changed was instead of Netflix.apk I used netflix-devicecheck-disabled.apk and BAM Netflix is now working on MIUI :)

So again thank you. And my install method for MIUI :

Steps to make Netflix work on MIUI :

1. Uninstall Netflix.apk on your phone

2. Flash Netflix_Fix_1.zip

3. Install netflix-devicecheck-disabled.apk

Your Netflix will now work on MIUI lol .

[HTC Inspire 4G] Fenny:
OP, feel free to add this to the first post.

I created an update zip to install the needed missing libraries for netflix on non-aosp based builds. This means those of you who want to keep your sense roms still can.

Install it, then use the device check patched apk: HERE

Note: this DOES replace many mediaplayer/libstagefright lib files and may have unforeseen consequences, but it seems to work fine for me on the leaked Sense 3.0 builds.

Enjoy.

For the sense based Roms does it still have to be based off of 2.3.4 or does it now work for 2.2.1?

Confirimed Netflix VIDEO and sound working on

Android Revolution HD 4.0 β 4 | Gingerbread & HTC Sense 2.1 | Android 2.3.2

1 issue though, when starting up, "Locations" force closed (just popped up). I don't use it but it may lead to other things... If thats the only problem, I'll be more than happy to deal with it. The video looked good, not choppy like on MIUI or the others and I've been using data instead of wifi (at work).

Excellent Job!!! :D:D:D

[HTC Inspire 4G] berdo:
I have tried rcmixhd kingdom v1.0 and coredroid 6.5 and I cannot get either to work. On kingdom I flash the fix and install the fixed apk and when I try to watch the app restarts itself. On coredroid, I try to flash the fix and the phone sticks at the HTC splash screen and never boots. What am I doing wrong?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bedwa:
For those wondering, the reason us and the t-bolt guys were having the same issues was due to us having the same snapdragon processor and thus more than likely either similar or the same libs. I'm personally glad to see a fix. I ironically had just reflashed cm7 to my device just before the fix.....

Here is a logcat from my Inspire 4G running RCMix Kingdom v1.0

Thanks for your effort, this will be a great addition to our phones!

EDIT: WORKING. Patch worked perfectly (thank you button pressed), believe it was a USER error :) For others having trouble with the Netflix app restarting when trying to view a video; here is the fix that worked for me.

Background: Previously installed netflix many many times trying different versions for a working copy. Running RCMixHD Kingdom 1.0 with minimal mods.

Fix: Search in root explorer for the word netflix showed a 23.8mb file in mnt/secure/asec/ named something along the lines of com.netflix.mediaclient-1..... not sure on exact name but I believe it was a renamed file from a previous attempt that failed to get removed during the uninstall. After deleting this file, then going to settings-applications-manage applications-Netflix, then clearing cache, clearing data, uninstalling netflix, then reinstalling the netflix with removed device detection I am getting a beautiful picture with no lag or jitters.

To OP, this patch works perfectly with no issues. I flashed this to try before fenny's, and I have had absolutely no issues as of yet. I have coredroid 6.5 running right now, but I have tried it with the other sense roms.

1. If you have any of the netflix apps installed, uninstall them.

2. Flash the fix from the link above (no need to wipe cache or anything like that).

3. Intstall the netflix app (I have installed both the regular one and the device check disabled one with no issues, but to be safe, just use the device check disabled one)

[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Stock is Android 2.2.1 (Froyo) you need 2.3.x for these libraries to work.

I've been trying to patch a froyo build for this, but I'm using Gentoo linux and the latest update officially killed Java 1.5 (due to multiple security issues) but 1.5 is required to build Froyo from source. I'm weighing my options, but it looks like I'll need to install a new build machine with Ubuntu to make this work.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uoY_redruM:
OK, so if you've been wondering how to use that nifty USB Tethering features, look no further.

I searched around a bit and couldn't find a solution. Somehow, the answer landed right where you'd expect.....Google. Don't ask how I couldn't find it, but I couldn't.

Anyway, this is to save anyone else who's had trouble finding it the hassle.

====================================

==========HOW TO USB TETHER=========

====================================

Windows XP contains the drivers you need to take advantage of USB tethering, but you must install a configuration file before connecting your phone to your Windows XP computer, to instruct Windows XP how to configure itself to use those drivers.

1. Download the following configuration file (tetherxp.inf) to your Windows XP computer. Typically, you can right click on the link and choose "Save As". (If your browser appends .html to the file name, you will need to edit the name to remove the .html extension.)

2. Use the USB cable that came with your phone to connect your phone to your computer.

3. On the Android phone, press Home, press Menu, and touch Settings to open the Settings application.

4. Touch Wireless & networks > Tethering & portable hotspot.

5. Check USB tethering.

6. When Windows XP’s New Hardware Wizard opens, select No, not at this time and click Next.

7. Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

8. Click Browse to browse to the directory where you installed the configuration file you downloaded in Step 1 and click Next. Windows XP uses the configuration file to configure itself to support USB tethering with the Android phone.

9. When Windows XP finishes installing the software for Android USB Ethernet/RNDIS, click Finish.

You can now use the new Windows XP local area network connection provided by your phone via USB tethering. For more information about configuring networks in Windows XP, see the documentation that comes with Windows.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
USB Tethering emulates USB network card for the computer, and requires RNDIS drivers, if I remember correctly - also the reason why it can't be used on Macs.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uoY_redruM:
I appreciate your response but...that doesn't explain much. I know it emulate USB network card but I'm not sure what I need to download? I'm assuming someone has used USB Tethering before so they must know what is required.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uoY_redruM:
For anyone wondering how to do it, I found the solution. I'll update the OP to reflect that.

Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HanZie82:

This made it so easy, found this page after 5 minutes of googling. ;)
