Netflix currenty works on rooted devices. I can't see a logical reason why it would change either. But nothing the riaa does is really logical to me so who knows. But Netflix is streaming only so it is different than a 24hr rental service that you can actually download the file for offline viewing.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwizardtx:
Well actually I wouldn't mind rooting the Xoom or the Nexus one I just don't fiddle around with ROMs or kernels. Merely rooting the device all by itself is pretty safe and gets you a lot of things I guess.

I just had my Nexus repaired by HTC a couple weeks ago and they wiped it... even though I don't have all these fancy back up measures in place it took me all of 10 minutes to put the phone back the way it was.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilema:
doesn't bother me cos australia can't get movies anyway... i rooted to get more control (for system apps and stuff) and for otg stuff
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tagacapiz:
because you can. root then unroot if you have to.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
Yes there are custom kernels. These add SD card support and real micro USB otg hosting, including the ability to read thumb drives and hard drives. That to me was enough to root. I don't want to pollute my Xoom's disk space with 10gb of music and another 10 with movies. Google music beta solved the music and hot swaping USB solved everything else.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy.WP7:
Hi all,

for the last 5 or 6 days, my phone has crashed every single night. :-(

When I go to bed, I just leave it on the table, not charging, but with enough battery left to easily last for the night. The next morning, the phone is switched off and I cannot switch it back on, because the battery is completey drained.

When I charge and then turn the phone back on, it has done a "partial reset", meaning that all settings are back to factory defaults, contacts are gone, ... All accounts, apps, ... are still there, though. The worst part is that I cannot receive calls anymore either, in this case. Callers are immediately redirected to my mailbox, even though the phone has a signal and I can make outgoing calls without problems. The only way to fix this is a factory reset.

The next night, the same happens again.

Has anybody had a similar problem? Does anybody have an idea how to fix it?

Thanks and regards,

Andy
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
I'm sorry that I have no advice for you Andy, but I'm interested in hearing any solutions you may find.

What firmware/ROM are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy.WP7:
I am still using the stock Froyo ROM that the phone came with. The phone is rooted and I've installed a SpeedMod Kernel. However, both (rooting and new kernel) have happened months ago, so I doubt that they have anything to do with the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy.WP7:
(partial) solution found

Since a phone that crashes every night, using all settings in the process, is fairly useless, I decided that I might just as well trash it completely by trying (and maybe failling :p) to install a custom firmware. So I downloaded Darky 10.1 and thanks to an excellent installation guide, I actually managed to install it.

Since then, my phone does no longer crash every night - it now reboots a couple of times a day :p The good thing is, though that after the reboot, the phone is back "in action" after maybe two minutes and it does not lose any data, setting or anything. So, it's not ideal, but much better than before ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
I was going to recommend trying a new ROM, but I found that as a workaround rather than a solution to your problem.

Did you perform a wipe or no-wipe install?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy.WP7:
As I had pointed out in my first post, the crash that happens every night breaks something so that I can no longer receive calls and have to do a factory reset. Thus, the phone was basically wiped, already, before I did the installation and I then did a no-wipe install.

You are right, of course that this is more of a work around than a solution, but since I was thinking about putting on a new ROM for a while, already, anyways, it is a fairly good work around for me - and I really like Gingerbread and DarkyROM so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy.WP7:
In the end it turned out to be a hardware problem and I needed to get the phone replaced.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Cjunior:
the porblem is make it works on android 2.3, the only 2.3 that i know it works is CM7
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jones79:
Let's not derail this thread based on the version of Android OS.. Android OS version is not the issue.. it is the HTC Sense version that is incompatible.

I have verified Netflix works with many GB based ROM for the Evo (Sense 1.0, MIUI, CM7, Decks, Stock AOSP) EXCEPT Sense 2.1 and above I haven't found one of these that it works on.. (Shift Ports, the Kingdom ROMs etc)

@skydeaner have you made any progress on determining if it is possible to get it to run on Sense 2.1 and above? I am running Evolved Shifted RC1.1 and really enjoying it, but can't make it my daily driver until Netflix is working on it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Janker5050:
+1 on that bro
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Masked Turtle:
Is it possible this will be cleared up for us when the OTA Gingerbread update for the Evo goes through on June 6th? (See news on Engadget and confirmed by Sprint)

I know that the Netflix apps compatibility was not universal, but a major update like that should move Netflix to quickly update the app to be compatible, especially considering that the Evo was one of the launch units for the app.

Of course, it could also be an inborn issue with the leaked 2.1 that all the Sense Gingerbread Roms are based on that would actually need a fix, at which point the OTA won't help anyone... But that's for smarter people then I to fix.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Cuppeerr:
It works on virusrom gingersense with sense 2.1
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jones79:
Have you flashed anything special to get it working? I ran that ROM for a while and it never worked for me.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Masked Turtle:
It would appear that virusrom gingersense is based, at least in part, on sense 3.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036706) which may be the reason it works. The Netflix issue seems to be specifically with sense 2.1 which was based on a leaked version of the Evo's official gingerbread build (which should be available as early as today in its OTA form).

I wonder if someone else with more knowledge would be able to isolate which part of sense 3.0 is compatible with Netflix that isn't compatible with 2.1 and be able to port that component over to all the 2.1 builds to enable Netflix. Or if the simple availability of the official 2.1 from the OTA will enable the Netflix issue to resolve itself...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Janker5050:
How do you know we are getting sense 2.1 with the ota.....i havent heard any confirmation of what sense ui it comes with
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] teddy_ballgame3:
I used a few of Virus's Sense 3.0 ROMs (actually I used all the beat releases he put out) and Netflix didnt work on any of them for me. i tried the stock apk and both modded ones. no dice on any of them. strange.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Masked Turtle:
You are correct in that I am speculating. However, considering that the sense 2.1 being used in all these Roms was from the leaked gingerbread for the Evo, I'm assuming that HTC/Sprint didn't abandon 2.1 in this final OTA version. Although they very well may have...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] s0calstate0fmind:
They did
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Masked Turtle:
Thanks s0calstate0fmind for clearing that up. Could you confirm what version of Sense the OTA is going out with?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Masked Turtle:
It would seem from this page of peoples experiences with the OTA that the Sense version is 1.0 mixed with certain elements from 2.1. Unlucky for us, it seems that the elements from 2.1 that they chose to include were the same ones that don't work with netflix, as people are reporting that the app has stopped working for them.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1106575&page=37

The race is on now to see who fixes the issue first, the awesome devs here at xda or the HTC/Sprint/Netflix folks....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Stuke00:
If that is true how come it doesn't work on the OTA update from today which is running Sense 1.0?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jones79:
Haven't tried on the official OTA (obviously because at the time of my post only the "Leaked" version was available) I did try it on the stock rooted leak version of the GB release (from TMartin I believe) and it did work for me.

It is official however that the GB OTA Update broke NetFlix on the EVO. NetFlix is aware of the issue and has removed it from the Market and expect a fix in the "near future" (their words).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jones79:
I'm sure you've heard already, but the OTA is Sense 1.0, but hopefully the devs can work with the official Kernel to work some magic on the Sense 2.1 GB ports..

My wife is watching a movie on netflix now on the TV so I can't test the upgraded netflix app's streaming (we can only stream on one device at a time...). Can anyone confirm if this did indeed fix the issue either with the OTA (sense 1.0 with some 2.1 elements) or the leaked Gingerbread based sense roms (running sense 2.1 or 3.0)?

The Netflix app now lists Evo with 2.2 and 2.3 as compatible devices in the Android Market.

hey guys, i suffered a lot from disconnects with my wifi when holding the phone in landscape mode

well i tried a app which helped my desire hd a lot, and now .. well i can hold my desire s in landscape without loosing connection

*removed cause its not working*

would be nice if people from u suffering from the same problem can try it and confirm if it is working or not

greetings
[HTC Desire S] Dr.Romca:
Looks good for those without root/S-OFF.... So do you know how does it actually work? Can it change the signal strength threshold somehow?
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
Tried it. I don't think it does anything to mine. Signal still drops. But not sure if does anything to the threshold.

What does it really do actually?
[HTC Desire S] .sh4d0w.:
Doesn't work.
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
I think it just resets the wifi. ._.
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
well i don't know what exactly it does, thats why i putted unconfirmed in the thread title, it helped me with my desire s and 2 friends with a desire hd

quote from app description:

that's all i can say what the app is doing

simply thought maybe its helping some others here too
[HTC Desire S] jullejul:
seems to work on my desire s =) but can't test it 100% now beacuse i can't play any online games, im in school and they have blocked all port :p

also kaspersky say that my phone was block. liked i changed to a new sim card. don't know why. made the program change something on my simcard? hmm
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
like i said i don't know what exactly the phone is doing, it's talking something about reseting wlan and deleting all data and such

i only wrote her that it worked for me

maybe someone don't have such a extreme death spot and got a faulty wireless duo bad flash so this is helping only for some
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
it doesn't work for me...

try covering the entire top plastic part (the part with the camera with your hand & see if the wifi drops using some app like wifi analyzer)
[HTC Desire S] Sandiman:
Well like a fool as my Wifi wasn't that bad.

The result being that I now have no Wifi connection at all.:mad::eek:
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
that's what i did and from full signal drop it went to 1 bar

u must add your wifi + passwords again after using this app, it's mentioned in the app so read first ;)
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
yes it asked me to configure my wifi again & i did it

but the signal still dropped like before

dont see the bars they are quite misleading ( i am usually able to browse with no bars)

use some app like wifi analyzer
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
well for wifi analyzer it's already too late cause i can't make a before/after compare now
[HTC Desire S] Numline1:
I tested it with WiFi analyzer before and after, there was still the -20db drop and nothing changed
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
well then maybe i had some software bugged wlan too and the programm was able to, so it will stay a myth that it's a help for the desire s signal dropping

well thank you guys for confirming it
[HTC Desire S] Sandiman:
That is what I did and it made no difference, I had to do a factory reset to get Wifi back. Perhaps I was just unlucky.:(
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
sorry to hear that, i'll better remove the app from 1st post not that more people will have to reset
[HTC Desire S] jullejul:
worked really good on my desire s. never get drop wifi. =)

Hi everyone...

what is the update on KIES likely to be called?

I can see on KIES

Current firmware version - PDA:JJ3 / PHONE:JID / CSC:JJ3 ( CPW )

Latest firmware version - PDA:JJ7 / PHONE:JK5 / CSC:JJ5 ( CPW )

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
NOBODY EXCEPT SAMSUNG KNOWS ABOUT UPDATES.....and they also have pulled out the previously leaked(take note-leaked-not officially provided) Italian gingerbread without any reason.

Note: CPW is sales code for UK-no updates for UK......
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HD2Tony:
Yesterday I connected to Kies and got the prompt to update firmware to Gingerbread.

I thought "great" and followed the on screen instructions. Anyway, the update failed, probably due to me running other programs at same time and not turning firewall/virus settings OFF.

So I did the 'emergency recovery' and ended up back where I started, with

PDA:JMI / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM2 (CPW)

Now Kies says there is no update available, in so much as onthe Basic Information tab, it says the above firmware is the 'latest' one.

Anyone know why this might have happened, and how I can get Kies to recognise the Galaxy Tab (GT-P1000) is due a firmware update ?

I'm reading a lot of cloak and dagger stuff coming out about the Kies system and updates. Does this update come and go from the Kies system ? That would be odd....

cheers

Here is the HTC Sense Live Wallpaper for Galaxy S.

This is for 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 roms. I tested it on XXJVO and XXJVP and it works but i believe it will also work on all galaxy s 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 roms. THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP.

Just extract the contents of the zip file and with root explorer copy mode10wallpapers.apk to system/app and the other files to system/lib

Here's is the download link:

Grab it from any custom GB ROM (check is your ROM deodexed, I gues it is, if not I can attach .apk and .odex for you).
