New Netflix app - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey so anyone able to get the new Netflix app from the market to work? What experiences are you having? It is supported on the G2 which is similar. I am running Miui and it starts but stops only after a few seconds. Maybe someone with a stock glacier can try it. It was posted today in the market

Doesn't appear on the market, so i got a mirror and installed. No dice, it crashes as the video starts. But no worries, i spoke to customer service and they said the list of supported devices will grow very quickly, and said the MT4G is probably the next phone to get it. BTdubz I'm on stock rooted.

Doesn't work on CM7 at all. The audio plays, but you get no video.

This is my experience as well. I'm running nightly 68.

They are working on it in the themes and apps section. Apparently it works perfectly with the coredroid rom on our phone, so it is not a hardware issue. They are checking out the files now. I am pretty confident they will have a working version by the time I wake up tomorrow.

Yeah sounds promising it's been a long wait

yeah hopefully they get it figured out in the themes and apps section

So I installed the netflix app and edited the build.prop exactly how it said in the one of the guides and now my phone just keeps restarting. I can't do anything at all. How can I fix this issue?

2 things:
1. weird that your phone is bootlooping after only changing the build.prop... do you have a backup in clockworkmod recovery? that would fix it. I changed my build.prop 2 days ago to try this and i was able to start up just fine.
2. Changing the build.prop unfortunately does not make it work

Questions you're afraid to ask

So I installed the new Sense 3.0 Fusion ROM and it's awesome. I couldn't figure out how to edit the app shortcuts that appeared on the lockscreen, though, so I posted over on a different forum and the admin answered it for me. I felt dumb, however, that someone like me - and like all of us I'm sure - who consider themselves somewhat tech-savvy sometimes can't figure out the solution to seemingly easy questions. The answer, by the way, is to go into the personalize menu then choose lockscreen and hit settings -- I know it sounds dumb, and I thought I had already tried that. My point is, sometimes we're too afraid to ask questions that seem dumb so we never do. I'll do my best to answer your questions, and remember, Google and xda are your friends. Maybe you can even post fun tricks you've found and we can all help each other a little. If this is a stupid idea then I'll just let it fade off into oblivion...

I believe it originated due to a dev named KingKlick. He was notoriously called out for stealing other peoples work and naming it his, thus the CM team created the work "Kang" due to him.
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's it.
Q: are there any dangers in using PD15IMG.zip?
Q2: I see people having issues where recovery won't mount system or cache partitions, which pretty much bricks their phone. Is there any indication to what causes this, and how can i avoid those issues?
I dont no of any danger flashing the PD15IMG.zip. I used it on a MT4G that I was selling (due to cheap silicone) and it put the phone to out of the box Stock. Good as New.

I used visionary 14 with Root.Rar file to acheive Perma-Root. I have also rooted using the g-free method (the semi-automated one) and have went back to stock using the PD15IMG.zip as well, with no problems.
You've used pd15img from both rooting methods? I only ask because I thought I read somewhere that pd15img can have issues with the rooting method that didn't use gfree. But if you've done it then no worries

PD15IMG.zip can be various things, I've seen it as taking you back to 100% stock and as flashing a new radio. Going back to stock with it I've read is easy enough (and I've done it once and I rooted with visionary/unlocker method), and I hear warnings all the time about just putting it on the sdcard and booting into bootloader to change the radio but it worked fine for me.
As with everything read the entire, or most of, forum before along anything you're not comfortable with.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I have used PD15IMG on a visionary root as well with no issues.
A question that I did have and felt like a goof asking it was not being able to get into my recovery by holding down volume down + power. The issue was that it would constantly load the PD15IMG when I tried this and would not allow me the option of booting into recovery because I kept that file on there anmed PD15IMG.
Once I took it off of the sd card, I was able to boot straight into recovery without issue. My workaround now, because I like to keep it on my sd card in case of emergency is simply keeping root explorer on there and it allows me to change the name of the file to whatever I want, allowing a boot into recovery by the v+p method and If I need it, I can just rename it through root explorer and it will load and put me back to stock!
And FWIW, I think this thread is a fantastic idea!
My noob question is I want to flash different roms but they say ext 3/4. Do I have to partition my sd card this way and can I do this with CW recovery? I don't want to lose info on my card. I am gfree rooted and running faux froyo kernal. Thx.

If you partition and SD card you will lose everything.
i also would advice against using ROM Manager for it. I'd use ADB if it were my phone...

If you are completely wiping when you install ROMs and don't use Titanium to restore backups I would try flashing the radio (at your own risk of course) or running the PD15IMG.zip and reverting to stock. If you aren't wiping completely do it, if you are using titanium know that it can cause errors when restoring data.
Thanks bro I'm going to try and flash the radio. I'm currently running the fusion ROM is there a particular radio u recommend or should o flash the one I'm using.

[Q] Help with Mytouch 4G with Gingerbread 2.3.4

Hello everyone,
Any help you guys can give will be much appreciated.
I have a MyTouch 4G previously running Froyo, rooted and S=Off. Against better judgment, I decided to put this release of Gingerbread 2.3.4 on it:
PD15IMG_Glacier_Gingerbread_S_TMOUS_2.19.531.1_Radio_12.58.60.25_26.11.04.03_M_release_200756_signed.zip
Though everything seems to work fine, I lost root. Contrary to most other accounts from other people who flashed the same file, S=Off remained on my phone.
I would really like to get root back so I can use some of my apps again.
Visionary stops at a black screen.
Gingerbreak runs forever with no success.
What other means can I use to get root back or am I SOL for now until someone figures out how to root 2.3.4 on the MT4G?
Thanks again.

From what I could find in the forums, you are kinda stuck till someone comes up with another exploit in order to gain root and s-off
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I am stuck in the same situation, except that I updated first to the official gingerbread rom for mytouch 4g and then tried to root my phone, i.e. the phone was not rooted at all.
I'm quite confident an exploit will be (re)written - just a matter of time. It's just that I couldn't use some of my paid apps.

You are mixing up roms and official update zips. You can't just flash a rom thorough hboot. That's not how it works.

lOOK AT WOLF26915's post use the G2 instructions to temp root using the fre3vo exploit in adb then change your version number to 1.17.531.2, then your bootloader will allow you to use the 2.2.1 PD15IMG update to get back to stock and root.

That was 20 years ago. And yet, even then, when I wanted to know something; I searched and searched and searched, and searched again. Then I read and read and re-read over and over and over again. And after all that if I still didn't know then I would ask. But I would also ask in a proficient manner.
Too many young kids jumping in on the Android bandwagon and wanting to root and flash Rom's right out of the box without learning first.
I stand by my first statement.
If you had Radio S-OFF, you should be able to flash an unsigned PD15IMG.zip even though you lost root.

I agree but i guess thats the price you pay to get the stock 2.3.4 right now
I spent most of the weekend researching what to do about this very thing. I was rooted but stock rom. I figured I needed a decision on what I was going to do before the OTA arrived.
After a lot of research I decided to go full S=off and install the Virtuous Unity ROM. I like Sense and it is a 3.0 ROM. If you wait for TMOB you'll only get 2.1.
EVERYTHING in this ROM works. None of the
"YOU GET THREADED TEXT MESSAGES!!! but the camera doesn't work"
Like in the bad old days of windows rooting.
I only wish I'd done this 6 months ago.
Yea every thing works but im wondering wit s off no root what can u do ?

Is it your intention to return to stock and run the phone unrooted with the 2.3.4 update or are you just concerned about having 2.3.4 on your phone? If you are looking for the most recent version of of Android OS, then MIUI is currently running 2.3.5... If you havent tried GenerationX mysense ROM, it is the newest update with bloat removed and i think there isnt anything broken with the faux's .7 kernel. Try it if you like stock, I bet you will like it.
I just want to get this straight, if someone can give an answer. My wife's phone currently has iced glacier and I want to go stock GB. If I take the phone to a Tmo store and ask for the update, it will take the phone back to stock and unroot? If so should I at least uninstall super user?

You could go to the store or you can download the same T Mobile sdcard update that Gr33nF0x posted http://megaupload.com/?d=N8XGHXJC (IF YOU ARE ROOTED YOU WILL LOSE IT)
1. Download the PD15IMG.zip file posted
2. Put file on the root of your sdcard (don't put it in any folder)
3. go to settings/applications make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.2.1)
4.power off
5. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot
6. it will scan file when its done it should ask you to update push volume up

The answer is yes. If you load the update, whether download the one on the forums here or update at T-mo you will lose root. No need to uninstall superuser, because the update will wipe all data.

To be honest I don't have much expreince with this phone as you can tell by how old her current rom is. Atleast with my phone its pretty much unbrickable, on this phone I wouldn't know how to recover if it did. I figure if tmobile does the update they are responsible for it.

Guys....I am getting crazy...I had a perfectly good CM7.1.0.1 buzz working (wifi too)
then after I played around with it for 3-4 days and installed various apps, the WIFI stopped working. As in, it scans ok, but when try to connect it fails..
- i fails even on open networks
- sometime its fails to obtain IP, sometimes it doesnt even reach that point.
I have tried to:
- activate airplane mode - tunr wifi on - reboot - many times in various orders..nada
- install various 'fixer' apps. nada
- flash new radio.nada
- flash new kernel.nada
- back up restore.nada
- clear cache, factory reset, dalvik clear . nada
- flashed latest CM nightly(256). Phone failed To Load.
- flashed CM7.0.3 - phone failed to load
- flashed CM7.1.0.1 again, phone loaded, (lost all settings) but wifi STILL not working
- I have tried varius networks, tried resetting, tried disabling encryption, changing channel, just about every option on the router. Its the phones fault.
I am very curious about this, because this error seems very serious and not many people seem to have it...so I am missing something Big..(?)
I will try to do a complete fresh install deleting everything formating etc
Maybe some app screwed up the wifi???
im a NOOB! any1 care to enlighten???

Using an ruu is a full restoration the only thing different with a safe ruu is you won't lose any of the good stuff. I have made my own safe ruu, saved on my SD which I've used twice to solve problems, first was wifi wouldn't connect at all even after a reflash and the second problem was random reboots on every rom, nandroid backup I had. Just flashing the ruu fixed both of those and I was back up and running on cm7 in about 20 minutes with no problems at all.
I haven't updated my sig for months but it is still more or less the same, I always end up back on cm7 no matter what rom I try.
It just feels right to me.......

no wifi even on stock 2.2.1

Hi all, major lurker here.
I've been running MIUI roms for the past year or so and have always been happy.
Recently the phone went into a bootloop while I was trying to load a game(scramble with friends).
Every rom I flashed, it wouldn't take the bootloop away so I flashed a stock 2.3.4 rom. Fixed the bootloop but then wifi would only say 'turning wifi on...' then soon after, wifi would be off. And i couldn't get visionary to work to re-root so I hastedly did the htc dev unlock bootloader (before I found downgrade threads).
Flashed a buncha roms and different kernels and did the bcm4329.ko flash/install methods but my wifi problem is still the same, turning on...turning off.
Now I'm back to stock 2.2.1, and no wifi.
Anyone have an idea of what to try next? I've tried every rom and kernel I could find, could it really be a hardware issue?? If it is, maybe I can just disassemble and solder a wire back on? lol
Thanks in advance!
you need to upgrade to gingerbread and you will be fine thats 2.3.4

Different radio perhaps?

Radio has nothing to do with wifi.
It honestly sounds like either something came undone inside your phone, or the wifi chip is shot.
