Since some people are being juvenile and aren't cooperating with others on posting the Netflix .APK file, here it is.
This has been tested on an HD2, NAND ROM variant HyperDroid CM7 "Gregarious Greyhound".
I cannot guarantee any other variants. Theoretically, if it's CM7 based, it will work.
This same file has worked on a Samsung Galaxy Tab, an HTC Incredible on CM7, and the HD2.
Many thanks to Chinle43 for the .apk file.
Works on BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA NANDv11clean, sweetah!
working great on NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.7 NAND
Works NexusHD2-Gingerbread-2.7
This is the correct app, the other ones floating around do not work.
Any specific player on those roms? I have CMYLXGO's Desire hd rom on mine. It installs, everything comes up, works fine until you go to play a video. It loads to the player then crashes back to the main screen.
Wonder if it might be the kernel
worked beautifully for the 90 seconds i tried it on AmericanAndroid May 7th build. Pretty sure it would work non-stop I just wanted to reboot into SuperRam Froyo to try it in there too...going to it now
Installed on my atrix and my inspire running RCMixHD 6.1.0.1 with gingerbread. No luck on the atrix, getting the unsupported device error.
The interesting thing is that out almost works in the inspire. It plays audio but I get a white screen only.

Official Netflix app works!
Just downloaded the official app from the android market. It works perfectly on hd2 with android.
1.1.9 Blutopia doesn't work... program runs and connects, but the video wont play but that's an old version (2.2.1?) I'm overdue for an update anyway.

just chiming in. it works perfectly on the unofficial SuperRam Gingerbread! I'm assuming it'll work fine on the Froyo variant as well. Thanks for this! Definitely a nice surprise after finishing my last final exams
works great on superram froyo 1.5 by darkstone.... "Its a great day for Androidia everybody"
It also works great on NexusHD2 Froyo v1.9G and NexusHD2 Gingerbread v2.7.....thanks a lot for sharing this, been wanting netflix on my HD2 for a while now.....I didn't know this was released in the market until now......thanks for sharing....just a little FYI, when I checked on my phone, the apk shared here showed up to be the same version that's on the market.....
Works great on my HD2 (HyperDroid-CM7-2.01), streaming "Rampage" via wifi as I write this.
No discernable lag. A/V Sync looks awesome. Overall, very very happy with this
Resets to main menu after trying to play a video on CoreDroid v1.6
Works on Hyperdroid GBX v12 also, couldn't find it in the market though. Tried a forced attach with titanium but still don't see it under "my apps".

Same here and I'm using the same type of ROM you are using except its an older version which is 1.4 I guess we should use the CM7 ROM or the Nexus one that some are talking about.
Was just at the T-Mobile store browsing and talking to the staff and told the manager and an employee I was running Netflix on Android. They didn't believe me but when I left the store they were both running Netflix on their G2s.

Congrats - you're the only person still running an original rom on here. And hopefully Android wont make it in here, after the 10 minute experience I've had of the Xperia 10 thingie.
Pretty sure im not the only person using a stock ROM, and I really was joking about android, if I wanted that I'd have got an android phone.
Hi conantroutman
I'm still using the stock ROM and have the Google YouTube app v 2.4.4 running fine. Had previously tried a HTC one and it stopped htc player from working so uninstalled it and all is now well.
Just installed that new rom from the original stock and the youtube app is working much better than before, video seems better quality.. everythings smooth etc!
Thanks guys, much better after flash, htc player and youtube working together in perfect harmony! brings a tear to my eye......
sms sent notification on the other hand is making me want to smash my face into the screen...........
Oh well, rough with the smooth and all that...............
Can anyone suggest a good camcorder app. As we all know stock app needs the trackball to start recording so i need one that doesnt
I would suggest qik however on the shub froyo rom video is working fine on stock app give it a try.

thanks
thanks man thats great. qik works great
I use the qik for Evo version. It records at a higher resolution than the standard version.
Tried to install Qik for Evo, but always gets "application not installed". I found it here. Can You post your working version?
Neither qik or ancorder work for any builds as Gator said if you east camcorder use shubCRAFT cm6 although darkatone is supposed to be releasing a build with 1 later.

The camcorder is one of the known issues with Sense 2.1/3.0/3.5 builds. We have to wait for Devs to fix it (which they quite possibly will never do). As for the memory thing, Sense uses a lot of RAM and a lot of ROM, can't do much about that either. If it's RAM you want, try a different launcher, it may free some RAM up.
Greetings Nigeldg,
Sorry for trying an old issue! I have little time here,
anyway thank you for your information and patience with me.

Hi,

Yeah, my question (or my intention, rather) was on which are more stable
they are all different for different people. shubcraft 1.5 works for me. may not work for you.

im using Froyostone at the sec, working very well for me
Yup...I went for the first recommendation - without sense. Looks pretty good, but not for daily use yet
Thanks!
Try hyperdroid. I use it as my daily and have no problems.

Just go for the most recently dated build and work from there.
I can also suggest Bangsters 1.2a as it's Vanilla 2.2 and is pretty responsive and relatively bug free. But like said the easiest if no the most convenient way is to try them all, no build is perfect and each has it's own defects but from what I have seen it can range from user to user.

Yup I would agree here. Even tho my DarkStone build is not one of the newer builds, it runs great, for me at least. I've tried a number of the other builds, but haven't found a real reason for changing from what I've got going. Updating the kernel on a regular basis keeps this build going strong.
Another conditional might be which ones work with HTC Sync. This is an absolute requirement for me personally. I've only tested a few Android builds, but so far only MattC's build works with Sync for me.
Yes I'm a total noob when it comes to this.... And I really don't want to brick my phone, which is the most fully featered 2.2 Version without sense for the HD2. And can somebody please send my an idots guide. PLease PM me deatils. I mean I've done WinMo Phones but nothing like this. Thanks for the Help.
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.

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

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.

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.
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).

It's not gingerbread with problems just gingersense roms.
I had some issues with Netflix a few days ago...I uninstalled and recovered app + Data from Titanium Backup and it started working again. Just F.Y.I. I also believe there's a post somewhere with the same fix in it.
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.

Thanks Man! This fixed Netflix on stock rooted 2.2.
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...
So, I have a Wildfire (not the wildfire S).
Does anyone have any guides on how to root it? Also, what's the best rom and radio for it?

I'm currently using my stock froyo ROM with sense, and using the nfinitymc4 kernel(which means I can overclock, this is the kernel you need if you are using a sense based ROM), I prefer this to CM, as I believe its easier to use, looks better and is as smooth performance as Cyanogen.

I'm also using just a stock 2.2 with sense. i tried a few others but with every installation the phone seemed to get slower and slower. I did it all right but meh... anyway mines just a stock 2.2, but rooted and i reckon it runs great (considering the hardware limitations that is....)

Sent from my Desire HD
I am the developer of SkEye ( I can't post URLs yet. Search on Android Market by that name). The app works fine on 99% of the phones but not on HTC Wildfire! On Wildfire stock ROM, the app receives a SEGFAULT and closes silently. This shouldn't happen for a Java application, and from the logs it appears to be a bug in the OpenGL implementation in the stock ROM.
I don't have a Wildfire phone myself; but I get lots of user reports by email and Market comments.
Since we are talking about the best ROMs, can you try my app on your ROM and see if you manage to not crash the app?
Here's the exact sequence of steps to reproduce the bug:
Set the location on first run. Approx location will do.
Click Menu -> Indirect Mode
Click Add new alignment
Select any object. Doesn't matter which.
Click "Return" or press the back key.
Search for any object (Menu -> Search or the Search button)
If the app doesn't crash after this, please let me know your ROM. I will recommend it to my users.
Thanks!
Does your app depend on the usage of a GPU? The Wildfire and the Tattoo are among the few phones that doesn't have it, so that could be the problem.

It does require OpenGL, but doesn't strictly require a GPU. The interesting thing is that the app doesn't crash outright. It crashes only after the above steps are executed. I will start a separate thread in the developer section when I get access to it. For now, I would like to know if its a ROM specific issue. Particularly, does the Cyanogen ROM have this bug or not.
It crashed here also, on latest CyanogenMod 7 nightly. The "called unimplemented OpenGL ES API" errors in the log are fairly common though, and happens with almost all apps using OpenGL, like games etc. They still work fine though.

This isn't a issue of cyanogenmod, its because an older version (gmaps 5) is running on the sense roms, you can deinstall on cyanogen the new version of gmaps and install the old 5.0 and its running like on a sense rom. So don't blame cyanogenmod ( the best mod for me so far), no offence to you but most of the complains about cm7 are about users don't know how to handle cm7.

I'm not knocking CM - I've used it and know the workarounds. However, the OP asked for the best sense ROM so I gave my opinion.
well i have tried, CM7, remPuzzle and jokerdroid. for me jokerdroid is the best, its very simple too, just flash the thing and you are good to go. i really like the aero theme too.

I've got 5.9 running on rempuzzle rom. which version does cm7 have?
I hate threads like this, each rom has its good points and also bad points too.....
Its all about preference try the different roms till you find one that suits you, its taken me nearly 3 months to make my mind up and trust me I've tested every rom. I don't believe in an out of the box rom as the customization of android is just unbelievable, every single rom can be tailored to your own needs, tweaked for extra performance and should be too, else what's the point in this community?
I've only been using android for around 5 months to its full potential and everyday I'm learning more and more ways to make my phone my own and as unique as I can make it.

I agree, but it's always good to get opinions so you know where to start. When I first started out on custom ROMs replies like "try them all" just aren't helpful.
