Feeling down about not being able to stream Netflix while on Apex?
Cheer up! There is a fix.
1. Download this file: build.prop
2. Place file on the root of your SD card
3. Using a root explorer app such as ES File Explorer, long press on the file and copy it
4. Navigate to the /system/ folder
5. Paste the file - You must replace the old build.prop
6. Reboot
7. Download the DX Netflix.apk: Netflix for the Droid X (the normal netflix.apk will not work)
8. Enjoy

JRummy has a zip that doesn't modify the build.prop and fixes the Netflix issue.

Yes I know that but I made this before he released that. He hasn't stated if it works or not. And that might only work for liberty.

Found a solution to running Netflix on Apex 2.0.0 beta and Liberty 0.5 (GB 591) without having to modify the build.prop or use a modded APK for DroidX and Droid2 also I think. I'm not going to link to another forum but a quick google search for
netflix apex 2.0.0 beta
ought to point you in the right direction.
Fixed me right up.

you can only edit hw_config.sh if your rooted.
If you are, use root explorer and find this file on /system/etc/

Umm its hard to explain. If you look at the very 1st line, you will see that only the 1st _als is removed and no others. Im now using a custom rom so will look a bit different, bust still works the same

Hi, I wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong place. I am looking for a mod to change the 'H' icon in the status bar, to the 4G icon.
Yes, I do know that 'H' isn't 4g, but I would like a flashable zip, specifically for ics 4.0, for me to try.
Thanks.

Depends on what rom you are using, one cannot simply make a zip that makes that kind of changes on all ICS roms simply because there are framework differences between the likes of CM7, CM9, AOKP, Sense, etc.
If you have Sense ( I think 3.5 or older ) there was one such mod in the Application subforum.
yes as well as one for cm7, have not seen one for ics or jb but I'm sure if you work hard at it you'll find one/make one

Yeah I've seen the one for cm7, but virtuous g lite has it already. Guess the rom wasn't designed for the U.K as it shows 4g when it should be 'H', which is exactly what I want for myself on Mimicry.
On the CM7 mod, someone talked about changing the System Ui.apk, under system-apps, and replacing the 'H' icons with 4g ones. I wondered if that would be the same for me. If anyone could shed some light on this, it would be great.
Thanks

I don't know how to create a flashable zip, but here is the modified SystemUI.apk - I think it is specific for Andromadus Mimicry 1.4.0.
Since you seem to be new, here is a little guide to apply the modification:
Before doing anything, make a Nandroid backup, just in case something goes wrong.
0. Download the SystemUI.apk and place it in the root directory of your SD card.
1. Open the Terminal Emulator app.
2. Type su and hit the Enter button to gain root permissions.
3. Type busybox mount -o remount -w /system and hit the Enter button to make the /system partition writable.
4. Type cp -f /sdcard/SystemUI.apk /system/app/ and hit the Enter button to copy the modified file to where it belongs.
5. Type chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk and hit the Enter button to fix the file's permissions.
6. Reboot and enjoy.

I cannot thank you enough. This worked perfectly, with no issues. Your help has been amazing.
Just one question though. If I change roms (factory reset included) or flash a Andromadus Mimicry update, will I lose the 4G icon? Or is it stuck forever?(which would be good).
Thanks again!
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
you will loose it, but you see how easy it is to get again, maybe see if you can find someone who will put it in a .zip for you and you could just flash it right after the flash of a new compatible rom

http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ is the kitchen website. I am currently using mimicry, so I guess I will give it a go and see if it works.
Well I just looked at UOT and their icons (at least for me) didn't have any 4G, they all had H

I gotta contribute to this thread with a little note from my post here. Since our devices can't achieve HSPA+ speeds (4G), why do you want to apply that [incorrect] label in the statusbar? Is it purely an aesthetic thing like "hey I know I don't get 4G but LOOK the ICON shows it!!!!! :victory:".
Maybe I don't understand the point/appeal? If I'm on a 4G network I'd want it to say 4G, if I'm on an HS*PA network I'd want H and if I'm on Edge I want E. The whole point of that icon is to correctly convey the actual network connection, but it seems like you guys just want 4G because it "looks better"?
THAT SAID, right now in ICS if you're on HSPA+ (which has been relabeled to 4G) it will still show H, but as I said, our devices don't seem to be HSPA+ compatible, at least according to GSM Arena.

You are exactly right of course. I am only doing this nonsense for my friend, who is yet to join XDA (sad, yes I know). However, I personally think the 4G icon does look better than H. Its personal preference, I feel. By the way, your zip works fine. I have added your zip to my thread, giving u credit. Is that ok.

Decompile Settings.apk. Go to res/layouts/. Here, one of the XMLs represent the 'about phone' screen. Open it. One of the "TextViews" will be the author's name and you can edit it.

In the XML file, it's like this under a particular TextView:-

So you can either find the string in strings.xml knowing its name and edit it (your way) or you can directly write the desired text between the ".."
