Figured it out from Google.

- download original dish apk

- extract files with apktool

- change AndroidManifest.xml to use "sensor" for orientation for all sections that had portrait or landscape

- rebuild with apktool

- sign with jarsigner

- remove stock dish apk from phone/tablet

- install hacked dish apk

- menus and viewing video all rotate with the phone

- works on my transformer too
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
Exactly. The code to enable rotation is sensor. When doing this with the Netflix app, some graphical components were stretched or off center. I had to go into the layout files to fix all of these. Keep an eye out for such results in the Dish.apk. Relatively easy to fix though.

I plan on posting all of the xml files that I have changed as I do not have as much time as I would like to support this. I just have not got around to it yet.

[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
There are no Netflix HD streams for android devices, not yet anyway. Roku and others currently support HD content but Netflix has yet to release any HD content for our devices. All streams are streamed in the exact same quality for all android devices. Meaning, tablets with large screens are getting the same content as phones with small screens. This output to your TV will be the same as it is on your device.

EDIT: NO 'HACKED' NETFLIX APP WILL ENABLE HD CONTENT EITHER.

I admit, feelin a bit lazy & can't use the search thread feature in the app; has anyone brought up needing a fix for app crashes when sliding out physical keyboard? Happens with the stock app too.

Love the rotation & custom colors, great job.
[Android Apps and Games] ps3taker:

I love the black one - suits my theme.

Does the small Netflix banner in the menu mode come from the server direct or can you also change it to black please?

On experia play when I pull out gaming pad the app freezes however (same as on the non-rotating version) however.

Is there a way to switch off rotation for video leaving only menu one on? I saw you condsidered it earlier.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] ps3taker:
+1 on both statements
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
Server side, else I would have themed it.

Switch off rotation, no and yes.

If you can open .apks and edit the manifest. you can change it. I still plan on posting all the .xml files for the public.

Since my mods are being stolen and redistributed anyway.

F**K it.

Then I will be leaving xda for good...

Edit: Got some good news, maybe things will change around here and I will not have to leave.

Version 1.4 is out.
[Android Apps and Games] XandroidX:
So if I install 1.4 from the market will it mess up rotation?
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
Yes. Post 1.4 here. I will add rotation.

NVM Got it. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Dblfstr:
All changes that need to be made to the Netflix app to add rotation are posted on post three.

After the latest update, my Transformer freezes when playing local video files through the Google video player. Some files that played fine before (Mp4 files mainly) crash. Last error was "Activity Video Player (in application Gallery) is not responding.

Factory restore did not fix the issue. Stock, never rooted Transformer.

*Files play fine under Mvideoplayer if anyone else is experiencing this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
Did you get the 8.4.4.11 3.1 update last weekend? It added a new video player that plays my videos perfectly. At the top you have tabs for rentals (Market) or Personal Videos (local disc). Is it your old Google Videos app that is crashing?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] avlon:
Yes, it's the 8.4.4.11 update with the new video rentals option. When I go to my personal videos, my MP4's crash after a few seconds.

The same MP4's worked fine under the gallery app prior to this.

Just purchased my 1st Android phone and am getting used to everything. Without sounding like a broken record and having spent some time on the forum, can I please be directed to or have answered how to root an Atrix 4.1.83 v2.2.2 without flashing back?

Does it make sense to wait for Gingerbread to come out or does it make sense to unlock the boot now?

Any input greatly appreciated.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Look for Gingerbreak in dev section to root.

I would unlock and flash Kenneth Penn's 4.5.91. The Moto release in SOAK will stop you flashing back if you want to.

If you wait and get an update from Motorola and you have your artix rooted on 2.2. How should one proceed? Does one just update and then re-root after that?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkjr:
Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if I HAD to flash back in order to gain root. As much as I don't like the motoblur bloat, a few items are handy. Any ROMs to look at?

When I was running 1.83, I used a method from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138204

Check out the third post in that thread. You'll need ADB to get it done, but if you don't have ADB installed you may as well do that.

ROM-wise, I'm using CherryBlur, which is a modified version of the latest 2.3.4 ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160649

And I think it's great. The original HKTW 2.3.4 beta leak had a lot of bugs, many of which have been corrected by community updates and hacks, but Kenneth's 2.3.4 seems to be pretty clean so far. As to whether it's worth waiting for the official release, well... I think it's worth modding your phone just for kicks, and to gain a better understanding of how it works.

I'm running a Desire with AceSmod007 v14 and decided to have a play around with themes and Metamorph and what not. I put a theme on my SD card, put it in my phone, installed it then rebooted and now its stuck on the boot screen. I'm sure there are lots of other posts about this, but I'm in hurry to get to work but don't want to leave with a bricked phone. Any help please?!

I'm sure you can tell I'm 100% n00b, so as simple as possible please?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yagez:
Reboot into reboot mode, and then wipe your data, reflash your rom and that should fix it. You're phone is probably just not liking the new theme or you haven't flashed it correctly

Hope this helps

[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I posted this in another section (already within a thread.) I figured I'd post it here as well. Here's my local sprint corporate store and how horrible it is.

I just filed an official complaint with Sprint regarding my local corporate store.

I tried to get it exchanged (maybe 2 weeks ago) because of the backlight bleed issue and the crooked screen. They said they would have to charge me the 35 dollar restocking fee. I argued with the woman a little bit (the manager wouldn't even talk to me, but he had no problem selling me the phone the previous week.)

I walk in today because a random power down/reboot issue I was having, they immediately recognized me and the manager turned around and walked into the back of the store, all hidden from me. I talked to the same woman I talked to last time and she of course remembered me. I had to ask for the manager multiple times before she would get him. He gave me the same crap about well if they couldn't reproduce the problem (in the whole 2 minutes they looked at my phone) they would have to recharge the restocking fee. Never mind that:

a) I'm a business account and restocking fee's don't apply to me

b) They didn't even look at my account after I told them too, I have record on there that I called in tech support about this issue and they said to get it replaced at that same store with NO restocking fee due to a defect in the phone.

c) I'm in my 30 day exchange window where I can get a replacement for flaws or defects without a restocking fee.

So I called Sprint Business Care and they refunded me the restocking fee and they filed the complaint. A regional manger is going to contact me at a later date about this.

The manager was just a total ****, basically calling me a liar when he said "well I know you were in here the other day trying to get a replacement phone, and here you are again..." Meanwhile he has a huge baggy shirt (because he weighs over 300 lbs easily) and his pants are falling off his ass. I mean please...

So I'm never going back there needless to say and telling everybody to not go to that corporate store and I hope to hear back from the regional manager (maybe it's a district mananger?) I'd love to tell him/her exactly what happened.
[HTC EVO 3D] theinternot:
Good for you. I was about to do the same thing to the sales guy at another store I went to the other day... I was within my 30 day, had valid issues and he said I could only exchange once (the exchange would have been number 3). Went to another store and was in and out in 10 minutes...

Seems like Sprint stores are very hit and miss in terms of whether it is staffed with douchebags, or not.
[HTC EVO 3D] -Apollo-:
Tacoma corporate store are a bunch of douche bags also! 5 minutes away from me yet I have to go to Olympia (a good 30 minute freeway drive) to get treated decently. Hell, 2 weeks ago I go in to Tacoma store to purchase the HTC car dock, figured they can't screw this up. Yeah right, after standing their with it in my hand to cash out for 12 minutes, they all looked at me and they weren't busy, I just set it down on the unattended checkout stand and walked out. Cockbags, that's what they are in Tacoma! I went over to the Mall and they were glad to take my money.

Hello,

The Sarasota Sprint Store on Tamiami Trail is also lacking Customer Service as well.

I got my 3D on June 22nd as part of the Premiere "First to Buy Program" and simply wanted to purchase an Otterbox Defender. The Store had them In Stock, but refused to sell it until the General Release June 24th date.

The other Sprint Store in Sarasota offered to sell me one, but were still waiting for their Cases for the 3D to arrive. I end up calling *2 and tried to see if they could coax the Store that had the Defended into selling it, but also got nowhere.

I ended up having to drive to Bradenton, FL which is one town North. With traffic, it takes about an hour round trip but had no issues selling me one on the 22nd.

I ran into more issues with the Store which is about 5 Minutes away when I decided to Exchange my 3D for another 3D due to multiple Reboots. At first, they said they had to find an issue before allowing an Exchange even though it was the 1st and hopefully only Exchange.

This time I called Retention and discussed just how ridiculous this Store was being. They put Notes on my Account to make sure there would be no issues with the Exchange. By coincidence, I ran into a nice Rep from the Brandenton Store who was Working that day at the Sarasota Store and even swapped out my Defender Case as well.

Retention offered me the option of placing a Complaint and said as I have been with them since 1999 with a perfect Payment History that it would be taken seriously, but decided not to as the guy that helped me could not have been nicer and did not want any chance of it blowing back on him. All the same, if you live in Sarasota, I would avoid the Tamiami Trail Sprint Store on the whole.

Cheers,

JJ

[HTC EVO 3D] jfcooley:
Interestingly enough, here in Charlottesville its the opposite. Everytime I've had to deal with the employees they've been pretty helpful, and fare I say even cool.

When I returned my Nexsus S 4g I had to pay the restocking fee. I didn't want to (who would) but that's just the way it is (for me anyway).

The Rep and I even talked at length about androids, and other interests (all geeky) we shared. My wife got impatient, else I'm sure we could have discussed more.

I have no doubt the op is relaying a true story, and I hope the issue gets resolved. I also hope someone doesn't take this as a full on representation of what to expect when dealing with all sprint locations.

[HTC EVO 3D] banzaiwolfe:
Had a similar experience when I had to trade mine for a defective touchscreen, store refused to even look at it since the issue wasn't occurring at that exact moment. Then order support was giving me crap too because the store wouldn't do anything about it. They finally shipped me a replacement but threatened to note my account that they would never do it again without a restocking fee if a store hadn't marked it as defective first. No idea if they actually did though.

i wont go tot the local store total douche bags !!

it sucks because the corp store is like 40 mins away

but i normally never have troubles .. besides before i go i call my contact at dan hess office and tell them to check my account and they normally take care of me quick and fast if not i speed dial 9 to Vanessa's personal phone and she rips ass :D
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
Encino,ca store is right up there.

bad customer service, ..return once deal or no deal and attitudes like the customer owes them 10yrs of back pay. a bunch of kids working there // 20-25 yrs of age who dont give a damn about customer service.

seems like every time i call customer care, they are always open and concerned about me (at least they are forced to lol) and are always helpful. I stay away from local stores as much as i can.

Also, local stores dont have Quality Checks like they do in Call Centers. The agents know that 6/10 calls are recorded and will be checked every month by the managers/supervisors. so, naturally, they need to be as courteous as possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] Quis89:
You go in to exchange over a slightly crooked screen and backlight bleed and complain over the restocking fee?? Your issues are not something that hinders your use of the phone. They are just a nuisance and nothing more. Why do you deserve a free replacement over something you can just as easily look past? My phone has light leakage but I have no desires to replace it as my phone works flawlessly. It's an obvious widespread issue. Either get rid of the phone or deal with the minor flaws. Don't expect a free replacement over something the next phone will probably do as well. That's just wasting store inventory over something that has nothing to do with how well the phone operates.
[HTC EVO 3D] meatgel:
I had light leakage on my Evo 4g. It didn't bother me.

But I wouldn't keep a phone that the screen was crooked. I saw the pictures of that. It would have driven me crazy! I would have taken it back, too. And to be treated like crap at the store is just wrong.

My local corporate store isn't great, but there are a couple of reps there that are good. I always to to the non-corporate store unless I have a big problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] Quis89:
I'm not saying the store wasn't wrong. I'm just saying that we as consumers have to accept that technology is flawed. And certain issues are only as big as we make them. We can't expect free replacements for minor issues that don't hinder device functionality. I haven't seen the crooked screen issue so I can't comment on that but the light leakage?? Come on!! How often do we use our phones in dark light conditions where this should be a huge problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Last time I checked, "The Customer is always right"...

If you want to accept sub par products, thats YOUR prerogative;

There is a reason they give a 30 day money back guarantee

Retail sucks, and, the people that work in it can be real dooshies, but, there is no excuse for hassling some one with a legitimate issue with a product they bought, especially one that cost 200 bucks...

[HTC EVO 3D] DualSportDad:
my local store is great! when i had all the problems with my Moment they got me into a Evo, about 3 months after my contract had started. i was the first person to leave my local store with a evo on launch day.

now with this POS evo 3d... i have taken it back about 5-6 times and gotten 3 replacements. they offered me a 4th but i told them it wouldn't help. this phone looks flawless hardware wise and all my problems for the most part seem to be software. i told the tech if root wasn't available by my 30days that i'd return it and he said no problem and we won't charge you the restocking fee. my 30 days was up yesterday and since there seems to be a damn good chance of getting full root soon i decided to keep it.

sorry everyone else has such bad service at their stores, reading that makes me appreciate my local store even more.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jungle Jack:
Hello,

I actually agree with this once you are out of the 30 Day Return Period. However, when in the 30 Day Window, I do not think it to be unreasonable to expect decent CS and no issues if you choose to Exchange or Return the Phone.

While some of us get an Upgrade every 12 Months, many have to wait almost 2 Years for an Upgrade. With this being the case, attempting to have the best possible Device only makes sense.

Cheers,

JJ

[HTC EVO 3D] overclockxp:
Spoiled because when we buy something we expect it to work? What if you bought a brand new car and while driving it home it veered to the left. Would you just say, "I'll get use to it," or would you take it back? Money don't come easy, even in the grand ol' U. S. of A. So when I buy a phone for $200 and have to stay with the company for 2 years I better love the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] Quis89:
No... No.... Absolutely not. If the customer was always right profitability in business wouldn't exist. Understand no product is flawless. I've got a pixel out... Say I exchange it and get stuck with one with a crooked screen.... Exchange that and get stuck with one with light bleed. We can always find something wrong. People are too sensitive. My phone runs amazingly. I refuse to be a hassle and demand an exchange over light bleed and a dead pixel. I'll wait until I have a valid issue that is more than just a mere annoyance.
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
Its ok, we understand you are jealous of us...
[HTC EVO 3D] wase4711:
You obviously aren't involved in any business venture yourself, or you would understand that if you DON'T make the customer happy, then soon you have no customers...

If we as consumers don't INSIST that companies' make the BEST products they can, then soon we settle for all the third rate **** that comes out of countries that don't have the protections and quality of manufacture/assembly that we still,( at least for now) insist on.

Its your prerogative to settle for a less than 100% product; most of us want what we PAY FOR, not more, not less...
[HTC EVO 3D] Quis89:
It's all about picking our battles. At what point do we say "ok.... This one works."? When there is not one minor blemish or issue. That's totally unreasonable. The chances of that are slim. Read around... These issues aren't isolated. Numerous people have them. It has to do with the build of the phone. Demanding exchange after exchange changes nothing. Aside from these minor issues we still have a damn good phone. Why can't we accept that sometimes these phones will have build issues. If your touchscreen grew unresponsive by all means exchange. Your earpiece stops? Exchange. But light bleed that you only notice at night? A crooked screen that you probably only noticed once it was pointed out? Hell the pics i've seen don't look THAT bad. Idk... It's obvious i've grew to love my electronics thru their inadequacies so long as I'm allowed to remain productive and efficient. I'm not condoning poor customer service.... But sometimes us reps just look at customers like "really? This is the only thing you can find to take issue with?" Which is completely fine... But be prepared to pay if your issue is one that doesn't hinder device functionality.

I'm done with my rant. I understand everyone wants to get the most out of their money but sometimes you start stressing yourselves unnecessarily.
[HTC EVO 3D] Quis89:
Cell phone companies will always have customers. Cell phones have reached the level of necessity. For everyone one angry guy there are 20 happy ones. Throw your weight around all you want but you know as well as I do that you aren't going anywhere other than maybe Verizon. And just as quick as you go there a Verizon customer goes to Sprint. This ideology of demanding manufacturers give their best is pointless when we are speaking in the realm of technology. You can't produce a product without flaw. It is not possible. Understand that and you will understand you're striving for the unattainable. You think manufacturers like putting out half assed products only opening the door for ridicule and hate? Wrong.... Manufacturers want to put out the best product possible. Competition demands the highest quality product. But that doesn't mean the product put out will be perfect. It can't happen.
[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I'm aware that products have manufacturing flaws/defects/etc.

What I'm pissed about is the manager in that store being a total **** to me. And I'm still waiting to hear back from the District Manager.
