[EVO 4G General] webfeind:
I just got off the phone with a rep at Netflix about the recent loss of availability on the Evo. Just in case some of you were not aware, the RUU Gingerbread update not only killed netflix for Stock Evo 2.3 users but also Stock Evo 2.2 users like myself. Now the reason is that Netflix assumed that all Evo owner's had a forced update to 2.3 and stoped supporting the Evo period until the developers can fix the playback issues on 2.3.

I informed them that not all Evo owners updated to 2.2 and that if you click ok in the app to get the update from the market and then very quickly hit the back button then play it will in fact stream the video. This works also in 2.3 with Netflix version 1.2.0 build 819145. But performing the work around is a PITA annoyance.

The rep is forwarding my finding and the fact that there are still 2.2 Evo users out there and will turn off the forced update today sometime and perhaps have the updated app available on the market for 2.2 users. They also will try to replicate my findings with the build I was using on 2.3 and see if they can get a working update for 2.3 within a few days.

So keep and eye out.
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
Ummm they didn't break it for 2.2 users. I just streamed fine on my 2.2EVO here running Calks EViO 2.2 rom.

The app just doesn't show up in the market anymore but it works fine on 2.2 at least.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Just so you know, I am on Evervolv, which is 2.3 AOSP, and just tested Netflix after reading this. It worked perfectly.

My Netflix version is 1.2.1

OTA GB Fully rooted Odexed, Netflix not working.
[EVO 4G General] webfeind:
Good to know, but I'm referring to stock 2.2 and 2.3 of course. Like Sprint lovers and stock based Rom that do not have a modified build.prop file.
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
Well the only thing modified in Calks buildprop that i noticed is the build.description, which i wouldn't think would make a difference in getting through NFLX checks. Its a sense based rom pretty stock with theming stuff and speed tweaks basically.
[EVO 4G General] quocamole:
i believe the OP is talking about 4.22 / 2.3.3. or sense gb ("RUU gingerbread" update for the evo), not aosp gb.

netflix on sense froyo is still working for me (evio 1.8).

thanks for inquiring OP.

[EVO 4G General] jeeplj8:
as I understand it - if you go to the market there is no Netflix app showing for Evo regardless of what Android OS or Rom you are running.

If you had Netflix previously installed on a ROm where it worked, it should still work.

Netflix will not work on any Sense based 2.3 ROM.

[EVO 4G General] Thugbar:
I'm using Deck's 1.2v GB 2.3.4 and Netflix works great. It's the 1.2.1 build though. Search the forums and you can download the .apk since it might not be available on the actual market for your version of ROM.

It might not work for everyone but it's worth a try...
[EVO 4G General] -eVo-:
Doesnt work on MikG 1.03, pretty sure because its a 2.3 rom.
[EVO 4G General] Thugbar:
Sorry, once you download the .apk move it to your SD card and just use a file manager to install from there.

Netflix not working on the EVO v2.2

I was unpleasantly surprised to see that they pulled it for those of us EVO users who didn't do the upgrade and stayed at v2.2.

Very frustrating. To make matters worse, I jumped the gun with the required Netflix updated didn't work and uninstalled the app. Now i'm screwed until they release it again.

Thanks for calling them. I'll do the same tonight.

Netflix has been working great until tonight. I finished watching a program and all of sudden it starting giving me connection errors. I'm running a slightly older version of miks froyo rom. This was on 3g cause I am at work. Internet on the phone was working fine. Tried rebooting the phone and still got the same connection issues. No recent updates, nothing I could think of to cause my sudden problems, then I ran into this post. Now I wondering if netflix did something. I installed another netflix apk, the landscape one, and it is also giving connection errors, but they have a different wording. Something about making sure my date and time were correct. I am gonna try the apk that was posted in this thread next. I am hoping it will save me. I need my netflix at work, lol.

Well I just tried the apk from this thread and I am getting the same error message as the landscape netflix. It says check network connectivity and that the date and time settings are correct. My date and time are fine, internet still working, so I am at a loss as to what happened. Maybe its a global outage? Guess it might be time for me to update to a GB rom.

Hmm, got home, battery was low (15%), put it on the charger. Checked on it after about an hour, hour and a half (51%). Soon as I unlocked, netflix screen was up asking for log/pass. Entered and its working fine. Should note, I am on my wireless network, not my 3g. Gonna check my 3g now.

3g working fine, still on apk from this thread. Lol, I look at my first post and the wording global outage. Should truly read local outage. I actually have to wonder if maybe it was something on sprints end, too. Lol.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
Its not working for me now also, im sure its something on their end. They need to fix this its getting redicoulous.

**Edit** I tried installing the netflix.apk from mediafire and it didn't fix it. I still get connection error. It was installed from the SD card.

I opened it again and it told me an update was available. I updated and it gave the connetion error again. I uninstalled it, reinstalled, and ran it without performing the update and still got the connection error.

Yes, the new release Verizon is talking about is going to be *hopefully* the last Froyo release. It is just to fix reboot issues. HTC and Verizon said that it should be the last update before Gingerbread hits our phones.

The release last night is a GB radio and I don't believe is the same as this radio Verizon is talking about.

[General Questions and Answers] bertobasten:
Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S without a data-connection, I really need a data-connection becouse I think the phone really needs a data-connection.

So here's my question:

Is it possible to get a subscription of a data-only SIM (the subscriptions they use for tablets etc.)

It is possible to use that kind of SIM/subscription in a phone?

Since I don't really make calls or send text's I really need that but I still want to be able to call and send text's.

Does anyone got a answer? :confused:

I think it would be helpful if you told us where you're from. I'm pretty sure the conditions for data-only plans differ from country to country.
[General Questions and Answers] bertobasten:

[General Questions and Answers] immiraja:
Data only sim should work fine. Curious to know, why you need data only sim on a phone. It kills the purpose of having a phone.
[General Questions and Answers] renw0rp:
I tried some time ago in HTC Desire and it didn't work, still don't know why. (it works with PC + USB Huawei modem on both Windows and Linux, i have E1752 model)

And as an answer for qustion "why do you need it?" for example in Poland there is company which for the government licence for some frequences is obligated to offer free internet for 3 years. Don't think its lika a fairytale - internet disconnects after one hour and the speed is limited, but still can be very usefull when you are tight on budget or just need to check something quickly.

PS. maybe i should add that in this case voice service is disabled on the sim card level (tele service (ts11)) what seems to be a reason for some devices not to work.

edit: finally it appears to work. Dosen't display signal strength but websites (slowly) load.
[Thunderbolt General] Taykiin:
Well this is odd...Since the GB Radio issue, I opted to revert back to Froyo after about a week of GB and have been running Bamf 1.7 overclocked at 1.4 smartass. Since reverting I've not had one single issue with reboots or what have you (GB I was getting reboots a few times a day). Everything seemed to be running quit nice on Bamf 1.7 and very smooth.

Well just a few moments ago while talking with a co-worker, I feel my phone vibrate and look at the screen and was in the process of rebooting!? Now it won't stop rebooting...It gets to the point where it's almost all the way loaded up to use and shuts itself off continually. Anyone have any ideas? Not liking this at all...:confused:
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Possible overheating issue (You probably had it set to OC automatically on reboot). Turn your phone off (In your case battery pull), leave the battery out for about 10 minutes then try it again.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
Did you flash the Froyo radio as well?
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Im pretty sure he would have noticed not having data :p
[Thunderbolt General] Taykiin:
Yes I've been on Froyo for the past 2 weeks with no issues whatsoever and now this morning BAM, it won't stop rebooting...The phone is not warm at all and don't know what could possibly cause an overheating issue. I haven't been on it hardly at all this morning except for 30 minute conference call about 2 hours ago.

I'm going to try a battery pull as suggested and leave it out for the time being and try getting her going again in a little bit. Hopefully this is some kind of fluke...:eek:
[Thunderbolt General] mastibeta:
I can save you, i had the very same issue. I freaked out, mostly because i wasnt at home to move files on my sd card. I can almost gurantee your going to have to flash a backup or clean install if you dont have a backup ready. If you can get into your sd card on a pc via a card reader...make sure you dont have a pg05img sitting on there. Then boot into hboot with vol down and power. Then boot recovery and your good to go. If you dont have access to that, u can unclick your micro sd, and put the battery agasint the contacts while holding it at an angle so that it doesnt fully push the sd card into place. Boot into hboot select recovery, and then carefully fully insert the battery...this will cause the card to go into a readable position and you can flash a rom.
[Thunderbolt General] Taykiin:
Ok thank you for the response...it's been given a few moments to "Call Down" and gonna give this a shot. Thanks for the response and I'll see if I can get her fired back up. Thanks again...I'll post my results after giving this a go

Hey guys quick question I've been working worth my brother in laws t bolt.

When you flash a radio from hboot is that like fast boot before recovery?

and since he is rooted what rom its solid and should I flash so I don't have to revisit it again I had das bamf 1.63 running but have had a few reboots and gps locking issues
[Thunderbolt General] mastibeta:
BAMF 1.6.3 is pretty solid, you may want to try a few different radios...or make the jump to GB...in such case go with gingeritis imo, and use the latest GB radio leak...has been working flawlessly for mine...well aside from the wifi tether dropping mobile network randomly after bout 30 minutes.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] interline:
Hi

I installed " Cyberon Voice Commander " from the Market on my Galaxy S2.

The first time I used my Bluetooth headset to voice dial, the phone asked me to choose which default program I would like to use for Bluetooth voice dialing, the Cyberon voice commander or the Vlingo voice commands, I chose the Cyberon and from then on every time I pressed the Bluetooth headset it would initiate a call using the Cyberon voice commander.

Recently something changed, every time I am pressing the Bluetooth headset it starts the Vlingo voice commands, no matter what I do I can't go back to use the Cyberon voice commander as my default program, I can only use Cyberon if I open the program through my phone.

I tried using voice input and output settings and looking also through the setting of Cyberon and Vlingo, nothing works.

Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong? How do I change the default back to Cyberon.

Many Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lwizard:
Same problem

I have the same problem, but Galaxy s2 never asked me what application to set as preferred.. simply I can't set Cyberon to start when pressing BT button.

It always start slingo. Maybe because my GS2 was already updated.

Cyberon wrote me it's a samsung not standard managing of BT events.

From what you wrote it seems that at the beginning the implementetion was standard, than an update broke it up.

Have you updated ROM or are samsung apps updates?

It would be nice to repack the old apps to turn back the possibility to choose BT event.

For now I use Tasker to kill Samsung Voice command process and start cyberon. It works fairy well.. but not always perfectly.

Very annoying!!

Any one??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrSlump76:
Hi same problem here. I would like to chose the application to start with the bt headset button, but the phone forces to use the vlingo app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valdigre:
My father has this app on his SGS2 and actually emailed developers about this problem.

The extremely polite and professional support (seriously, I have never read such a concrete and polite reply from a software company, ever!) said, that this is a firmware limitation and they cannot fix it.

I think this started happening after he updated firmware from Polish KF1 to newer one.

They said, that unless Samsung changes this behaviour, they cannot do anything about it, at least they are not aware of the solution for now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lwizard:
Yes Cyberon folks are very kindly and polite!!

I have found a fix!!

* Root your device

* Set google as default voice recognition instead of vlingo in settings>voice recognition (not sure this is important to do)

* Install Titanium backup (i Have paid full version, but probably you can use free

* Disable "comandi vocali" (Italy) which in english should be like "voice commands"

* Than I have cancelled the BR pairing, restarted the phone and paired BT again...

* Set Cyberon to use long press bt button to start

IT WORKS!!
