Watch out when using the Netflix update if rooted runing gb...keep the old version (or make a backup) I believe its 1.2.0. They seemed to have blocked access to gb roms on our Inc. Just fyi. Made the mistake already luckily I had a backup.
Running cm nightly #90
Update:
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/05/26/netflix-removes-device-check-should-work-on-all-android-devices/
Seems Netflix is trying to be nice. Wonder why its hit or miss?
I'm using CM 7.03 and just upgraded Netflix (1.2.1) and have no problems using it, movies still play, everything works as normal.
Well ..me and so far plenty other on droidlife are reporting unusable after update.
I'm using nightly 90

And then this happens.hmmmm wonder what's going on.
I'm using the last stable cm7 and it still works.
Nightly 88 (I think), updated version working.

I know Netflix doesn't work with the new GingerSense ROMs, and the Droidlife article talks mostly about it not working on the Thunderbolt which I believe has the new Sense 3.0 on it, maybe thats the problem not Gingerbread.
Everything running fine for me on CM nightly also. The update actually relaxes the device check it didn't clamp it down further. Maybe uninstalling and clear data before reinstalling, permission fix if rooted, etc, might fix it for those with issues.
EDIT: Well, unless you're running a gingersense that is... I tried again last night with no luck still.
I'm running liberation v2 and I can load nexflix and view my recently watched and instant queue but wont load videos. It keeps on force closing. Its definitely not a sense 3.0 problem.

Yup, it seems every version of Gingersense is getting the same results for some reason. I was hoping the new update would change that but no luck.
Can't even install it from the market.. says insufficient storage
I was having issues with the new update where it seamed like the app wasn't loading correctly or even at all at point, aka just showing a blank white screen, but it turns out that it just took an incredibly long time to load.
DINC with CM7
Thanks first to XDA developers and alot of hardworking people.
I have downloaded from this site about a dozen different versions of the netflix app, including several versions posted after 6/21. None of them seem to work on the incredible 2 I own. I can get the app to install, I can log in to Netflix, I can select a movie, I can start it, but, all I get is audio and a white screen for video.
I have scanned through several forums and I see this is not an unusual problem, and the only possible solutions I have been able to understand seem to involve cracking the phones operating system and going in and messing around with various files and user supplied patches. Reluctant to go into the deep water without a lifeguard and phone still under warranty. Does anyone have a link to an APK that has been tested on the incredible 2 and found to be satisfactory? Thanks for all replies. If I found something will post here.
I'm running CM7.0.3 stable and Netflix 1.2.2 and it's working fine.

market out
market is out for me as well i was flashing all kind of roms must b a server down ive read some of the post and a lot of people are out as well and also on different devices as well so ill go back to mod'n my hero and wait
I am running cm6 and mine has been out for a few hours.
I just downloaded google maps about five minutes ago running aospbot nightly but it took an extremely long time. flashing the latest nightly gave me network error though anyone wanna man up and flash run the ruu to find out if it's just a rom issue or if it's google.
market is down...looks like there will be a major upgrade!
Mine works
Working again, no upgrades...

yeah i was having that trouble when I was testing RegawMOD 3.0 lol I thought it was something I did! good to know!
my market has been acting up for a couple days now and its still doing it anyone know of a fix? I thought it was my rom but I've wiped and flashed a different rom and still the same problem.
mine loads fine but when i go to download an app the download arrow pops up for a sec then goes away and it never finishes downloading... good to know it's not just me
I'm having far worse problems with my phone. I started out with the market going slow, clicking to download an app, then waiting 5 to 10 minuets until the download starts. Then came the network errors on the market, taking 12 hours for downloads to start. Now, finally, when I type in www.google.com in my browser, my phone just sits there, looking at me like I'm stupid.
I can go to bing, yahoo, xda, penny-arcade, kotaku. I just can't go to any site related to google, on an operating system coded, ran, and maintained by google. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the definition of irony.
Anyway, if it helps any, I'm running 2.2 cm6, flashed between that and Zenhero 2.1 and the stock rom, doing factory wipes, and both regular and davlik(sp?) cache wipes in between.
Weird, I've had no issues to speak of, running cm6 830 and now 831

Updated sucessfully to Froyo! Everything runs great.... Except that I can't connect to the market.
I get a time out error/can't connect. Gmail and all other apps have no issues.
I have tried this solution:
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/06/12/tip-market-app-issue-in-froyo/
and, this solution:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-chaos/49974-market-update-fix-froyo-leaked-version-2-a.html
without success. The second one caused a boot loop and I had to re-flash .604 via SBF/RSD.
Anyone have any suggestions or a fix for the DroidX?
Both of those links were for the droid. Im have the same issue though.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I was aware that they were for the Droid... I was just hoping that they would work for the DX.... although after looking at the build.prop files I now realize that was a REALLY STUPID NOOB error.
I guess I was hoping that the .zip's contained some code that would change a setting and not RR the whole file.
If someone knows what setting needs to be changed please let me know. For now, I'll have to go back to 2.1 if I can't get the market.
I don't think its an X on Froyo issue, Markets not working on my EVO and X
Google server error?
Other Android users(non-Droid X Froyo users) have reported the same issue in another forum. Seems to be a "Google side" error. Probably just maintenance because of all the Froyo releases this month.
Markets back up

So yea, netflix just came out for a couple of htc phones and me being awesome tried the apk from my gf's Dinc...it worked!

you got it to actually stream? On 2.2?
i got it to install but it says Device Not Supported on startup and again when trying to actually stream.
it does show up on my activated devices list on Netflix.com but says
Android Device(Obsolete)
Could we trick the app to think it is another device?
Engadget claims they got it working on Droid X running Gingerbread. I'm running GB on my Droid 2 was hoping it would work. Blah.
droid-life reports some people on Droid x that are on gb leak .588 and .595 having it work. and some Droid 2 gb leak saying got it working.
ive seen mixed results so not sure how truthful people are being.
im not going through the hassle of flashing gb and then restoring apps just to test this so i guess im still waiting for either a workaround app or official release.
maybe the key is finding what files in GB let the app work and copy them over into system folder through root? no idea.
installed on my 2.2 (liberty rom) droid 2. nothing goes wrong, you can do everything in it, but right when you begin to start the stream the popup comes up telling me its an unsupported device.
works on my droid 2 running Liberty GB v0.4
I get the unsupported device message as well once I try to stream a movie. Running Zombie 1.6 with gingerbread.
Here is teh pic that I took, unfortunately I played with it some more and streaming didn't work but I can login and add stuff to instant queue.
Confirmed working with streaming on the zombie gb 1.65

Running 1.65 it is NOT working. Loads program lets you pick movie then says unsupported device.

Weird, cause it streams on my 1.65, did you wipe data after you install 1.65? Can't see the vid in the picture, but its there.

Yeah I always wipe data and cache because I usually get the bootloop after flash.
If we can figure out what it checks to determine the device, should be able to change that if rooted.
Just tried CM7 on my nook color and it doesn't work as well.
Check it...

Just Installed the 2 Netflix mods. I don't get an error per se, but just when the movie is about to start, it goes back to the movie list. The same issue happens for both modded versions of Netflix.
Phone Model: Droid 2
Rom: Fission_2.5.7_BE
Version:
Additional Mods: Installed both
---netflix-devicecheck-disabled.apk and

Clearly they need to fix some lags here
Love netflix on my d2! Works great with some managable bugs
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I was using the versionapp that doesnt check the device. Was working fine for me until the app says today it requires an update. It looks in the market and can't find the upadate.
Lame.
Anyone heard anything about when the tablet optimised version of this is likely to hit? I've got it running on the Iconia but it's not the smoothest experience. Much better on my Xperia Arc at the moment! Hoping 3.1 will bring an improvement.
when you say running how long does it last before it FC? I just walk for less than a minute it bam fc....
works great for me. Only the character select screen lags a bit. I'm using 1.0.1 on the leaked 3.1 build.
Mine doesnt crash but the display doesnt fit properly and it lags. However I am still on 3.0.1 so heres hoping it will work after update!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Wow OK updated to 1.0.1 and its very good, even the cut off parts are gone. Well what I mean is there is no more cut off well just look at the pics below I'm currently using virtous Picasso 1.0.2 and other was on prime rom.
How did you get it to run on the Iconia?
Market wont let me download because its not compatible with my Acer A500??
Edit: nevermind, did a search for all devices version and could install the bugger
Purchased it from a compatible device tho, just to be on the legal side....
Question now is: i wont get updates the normal way now because Iconia market does not show the game even if purchased, grmpf:
Guess for the long term we have to wait for a lazy gameloft dev to extend the compatibility list for the game (played about 2 hours w/o a single crash yesterday, so the Iconia can handle the game sweetly.
Anyone managed to buy stuff @ ingame store?
For me connection just times out...

Yeah, same here. Times out every time
dont know if it just me but anyone have the "your system is not compatible"?
I been playing really good logged off then I tried logging back in and nada.
Maybe Gameloft finally detected the non approved system and blocked it?
No such issue here...
For me it force closes from time to time just after during startup (same applies to some other games/apps).
Also i had a "License invalid" once, but after another restart it was ok.
Anyone has the updated Market rolled to his/her device yet!?

If your device is rooted, you won't have access to the Movies section.

Working great on my N1... thanks for posting
I noticed that some apps vanish from My Apps in the new Market. I had about 4 apps to update in the old Market, two manual because of changed permissions. I left it as-is and installed the new Market. In the new Market, only the two apps without changed permissions appeared as updates in My Apps. The other two apps had vanished completely from the My Apps list. If I search for them manually they will still show up and I can update them though.
You may want to try clearing the data of the market app
Install the new market using the apk from android central.
I like a nice little improvement to the notification: it says "updating" instead of "installing" now
Yet, it is not performing fast enough... I feel laggy when using it. And the new UI looks like WP7 (though I personally like this new design )
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
so it's not just me thinking that it's really laggy ... maybe it's not the final version?
or maybe we now need a Dual-Core Phone to use the new Market
It runs fine for me on the N1 most of the time. The only lag I've noticed is when it's fetching the icons for the apps on the Staff Picks screen or similar. When the icons have been downloaded it runs smoothly. I like the Honeycomb/ICS-like design.
Downloaded Market from http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07/12/download-the-new-android-market-v3-0-26-with-support-for-movies-and-books/ I am not sure when it will go live in my country so Downloaded from there..I love it but Kinda fell Lag.I think it is new so might take few days/weeks to fix it over it is SO COOL on SGS2 but I have a Problem I can't see Movies Option I think Movies option is not Available in my country yet
Yeah, movie section doesnt appear on my market using MIUI Rom.
Anybody else having issues with Facebook since switching markets? Logic says it can't effect of but since I updated the market, Facebook won't load. Happened immediately after installing the market.
don't be so quick to yell at google for blocking movies if you're rooted
it's pretty clear the movie studios wouldn't give them the licenses for the movies unless they blocked rooted devices
i mean, i'm not agreeing with the studios. cuz are they REALLY worried people are gonna ****ing steal ****ty low res videos off their cellphone? there's SO MANY other(better) ways to pirate these movies. but whatever
