Netflix WORKING Patch! - Acer Iconia A500

I know this was posted elsewhere but thought we needed a dedicated thread...
Patch is from this Asus Transformer thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178773

I'll confirm it seemed to work for me. I bought my Iconia yesterday and updated it to the lastest OS version. Then rooted. I downloaded the new Netflix 1.3 app last night, but got the same error everyone else is reporting. This morning, I downloaded the zip file mentioned above, unzipped the file on my PC, copied just the .so file to a microSD card, put the card in my Iconia, then transferred the file to /System/lib using Root Explorer (backed up a copy of the original file, of course). Then I loaded Netflix and video seemed to work just fine. I wasn't able to test it much since i am at work..the video quality looked good after a few seconds. Didn't verify that the sound and video were in sync. Will do that when I get home tonight.
I wonder if the Hulu hack for the Transformer would work, too? I think its just an older version of the Flash apk (or something like that).

i flashed it as well, video and audio is synced on mine enjoying it right now.

THANK YOU!!
Installed the patch with the old app from the market (before it was taken down) and I had no luck. I didn't even get the 12001 error anymore, this time I just straight up got "Device not compatible"
Installed 1.3 app and boom, good to go. Netflix on Iconia Comfirmed :]
*Also* Like other's have said, yeah it starts off in a crappy quality but about a 30 secs to a min into your movie it scales up

I can also confirm it worked on mine. Virtuous Picasso 1.10. You have to install the app from the download link provided. I just flashed the zip for the patch via CW and thats it. Audio sync is perfect.

confirmed working, sync'd audio!
Excellent work!

Confirmed on stock ROM yet?
Looked through the post and didn't see it.

Virtuous Xoom users - Netflix will work, but your Camera apps will FC.
-- This is probably due to libnvomx.so being pulled from HC3.1 Xoom. We'll need to track down a copy of libnvomx.so from HC3.2 Xoom to confirm.

+1 to that.

Also confirm works on stock 3.1. Only thing I had to do was reboot the tab. Audio synced fine on the first movie I tried.

Do you have to be rooted for this to work?

I posted this elsewhere too... After being successful with this patch and loving the Netflix... I cannot use Music... anyone else having this problem?

Camera crash.
Im running the latest version of picasso and after the patch netflix works great but if i do anything with the camera it force closes. Any thoughts?

Same here. I'm not sure how everyone else installed the patched file, but since I have not installed Clockwork Mod, I did the following:
Extracted the ZIP and dumped the file on my device at /sdcard/
Logged in a local console using Connectbot (in the market)
Ran "su" (requires root)
Remounted the /system partition as RW: mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system
Renamed the old library: mv /system/lib/libnvomx.so /system/lib/libnvomx.so.bak
Copied the new file from my SDCARD: cp /sdcard/libnvomx.so /system/lib/
Reboot

i have it working without a patch, i just installed it by sending the apk from my thunderbolt, and its the netflix right out of the market. no camera fc's here i think the new update made all tablets work
EDIT: im running virtuous xoom 1.1.2 just to clarify

So you aren't running a factory ROM. And no, the Netflix update didn't make it work with all tablets out of the box.
From the press release I gather that Lenovo worked some deal with Netflix to ensure theirs were the only tablets it worked with. It wouldn't surprise me if Netflix was specifically looking for certain file versions to ensure it works, and intentionally breaking it if not. From the Lenovo press release:
As the first Android-Honeycomb tablets certified for Netflix, Lenovo tablets can help turn every night into
"movie night."

And I have no FC's from my camera after the patch install, so unsure what hungsohlo's issue is.

Confirmed working on Acer_A500_4.010.01_COM_GEN2.

[Fix] Hulu working + Flash.apk April 22

This is a modified flash apk file that enables you to watch hulu on your rooted, froyo-running android device. It is my project to return to the community. Please only use this fix if you know what you are doing, as I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone.
Instructions:
1.) UNINSTALL FLASH
2.) Download the .apk
3.) adb install flash_fixed.apk (or your preferred method of installing the .apk)
4.) Set your user agent to something other than a mobile device (search for ABOUT: DEBUG if you don't know what I am talking about)
5.) watch hulu!
Please Note: I cannot do anything to fix any lag or stuttering you may experience. One fix you may try is overclocking (at your own risk, of course).
Changelog:
April 22 - Updated to Version 10.2.156.12
November 13- Updated to Version 10.1.105.6
September 24- Updated to Version 10.1.95.2
August 26- Updated to Version 10.1.92.8
June 17- Updated to Version 10.1.72.7
June 09- Updated to Version 10.1.72.4
Enjoy!
Thanks great Job!
and seriously... keep this one a secret. please
Thanks very much....
It still didn't work for me
needs to say that it's a newer version
Hulu is saying:
"Hulu requires Flash Player 10.0.22 or higher. Please download and install the latest version of Flash Player before continuing."
Did you install flash-fixed.apk correctly? Were there any errors in step 3?

For those like me that are programming impaired, here's how to install an APK the easy way:
wXw.brighthub.cXm/mobile/google-android/articles/37151.aspx (replace the XXXX's as I'm a newb and restricted).
In the market look for "installer" by Jiang (It is one that works on Froyo).
Update: it seems 2B working for me. Dam Zulu, why do they make it so difficult to watch their commercials (and programming)?

rcxquake, i didn't receive any error msg when installing your fixed apk, but i still got the same msg that gerizafa got.
It worked for me (luckily). I am going to restart my phone to confirm this though..
Second attempt still doesn't recognize it as being installed; (even though the APK is)
Does this fix require root or no?
As far as I know, it shouldn't require root. It does, however, require froyo obviously.
You said flash isn't installed JareduPS? How is flash not installed if you didn't get in error in step 3?
rcxquake - is it possible it's working for people who already installed App Market Flash but not working for those who didn't?
To those getting an error: try this. Go to settings -> application settings -> check the box next to "Unknown sources". This might actually require root. I am not familiar with non-rooted phones, sorry.
Wee! Yay! Thank You!
The tech blogs come here on their own, and the gig will be up again soon. In the mean time, let's keep our mouths shut on this one.

I do have FroYo, but I haven't got around to re-rooting after coming off Cyanogen.
I had the original 10.1 beta installed; uninstalled that, installed yours; went to browser, turned to android, then back to desktop, tried hulu & youtube, says that flash player isn't installed; uninstalled; downloaded installer, rebooted phone, reinstalled your apk, and thus-far no luck.
I think I'm going to try rooting it really quick (since I need to do that anyway) and see if that has any results.

The tech blogs are trolling the N1 forums and will see this, so in the mean time, let's keep our mouths shut.
Didn't work on my N1 which is non-rooted. After I installed it I only get "You need to upgrade your Adobde flash player" on Youtube. Worked fine again when I uninstalled it and installed the one from market again.

[FIX] For Evo's having problems with latest Flash 10.2 update (10.2.157.51)

I was one of the many Evo users who's flash video was killed after the last Flash Player update. After much searching, couldn't find a single thing on why so many of us were having this problem so decided to do a little tinkering.
In my phone, I found a 2nd "libflashplayer.so" file under \system\lib\ which was also a different size from the one under \data\data\com.adobe.flashplayer\lib.
It also remained there after completely uninstalling the current version of Flash.
Installed the latest update and confirmed it as not working
Renamed the \system\lib\ file to "libflashplayer.bak" and flash instantly worked again! Putting the file back to normal instantly broke flash again too.
Also tried replacing it with the copy from \data\ (since it was the latest version) and flash still works just fine and didn't revert back to the older file after a reboot.
So - If any of you also have problems with the latest 10.2.157.51 version of Flash Player - check your \system\lib\ folder for this file and either rename or replace it and see if it solves this for you too
(Note - Always backup stuff first, and I am not liable if you fry your phone. ^_^)
It never ceases to amaze me up buggy and poorly controlled Flash is.
Thanks man.
Interesting i just updated flash NOW after trying twice before only to find video playback broken and it seems like they fixed it themselves now it is works, without doing anything on my end lol - Thank anyhow though!
Now you know why Steve Jobs doesn't want to see flash on Iphone or Ipad.
By the way - thx for the info.
To be fair, this is less adobe's fault, and more HTC's fault for putting the libraries in a read only filesystem. Even that would be alright if that path didn't superscede the ones in /data. I've been doing this on my own phone for a while now, and it does fix a lot of problems with flash. I wish more devs would take care not to put market apps that are subject to frequent updates in /system anyways. It doesn't really save any space in the long run.

10.3 wasn't working for me either (I'm on the SprintLover's ROM), but after doing this, it works!
Thanks, OP!
I used ROOT EXPLORER to do this... thats the only program I know that works. it allows you to make the folder R/W instead of R/O then you can rename..
Im glad I found this.. now I am updates to 10.3 .. is there any difference in anything in 10.3 ?
Thanks! This fixed it on my EVO (running Fresh's 3.5.1 Froyo ROM), I used EStrongs file manager to make the necessary changes (you have to enable root options and mount system under settings first). Spent like half an hour trying to find a solution, since the search terms for the problem can be so generic ("Flash", "broken", "black box", etc. just returns a million different results).
WHY do some sites still say you need adobe flash when I go to them?? they worked with the old version.. could it be I have my browser agent set for desktop and the flash installed on the evo is reporting android?
My flash was also broken after the 10.2 (and 10.3) update. I used the method from the OP and it worked. Has anyone noticed though that after doing this fix if you have your "enable plugins" setting on your browser set to "on demand" that all flash content will say: "you need to update flash player to watch this video"? When the "enable plugins" setting is set to "always on" everything works flawlessly. I guess I should be happy that i got flash back at all but it kind of sucks because I like having my browser set to on demand so flash doesn't slow down my browsing experience.
At any rate big thanks to the OP
THANK YOU!!
This finally solved my problem, but in addition to renaming the libflashplayer.so file, I had to also rename libflashsnddec.so. Until I renamed the second file, Flash v10.3 kept giving me that blue Lego block with the question mark.
Thanks again!
Edit: Whoa...don't rename or delete libflashsnddec.so! Doing so causes both DolphinHD and the stock Android browser to abend on some websites (even simple ones like Amazon, etc.). I tried various combinations, uinstalls, reinstalls, clearing cache, backing out to an older version of 10.2 that worked previously, etc., and all ended up pointing to renaming/deleting libflashsnddec.so.
One question though. Would changing the .so to .bak affect when trying to update from the market? It worked like a charm by the way. Thanks.
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
Using that fix causes the stock browser and Dolphin Browser HD to abruptly close without even a Force Close warning.
I replaced the lib in /system/lib with the one from the latest Flash Player update and also placed the lib in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib which was actually empty before I put the file there.
Edit: Nevermind. Got it. Removed the APK from /system/app and installed via Market. This placed the libs in the right folder and then I just copied them to /system/lib.
Edit 2: Alright, I'm trying to get this fix to work for my ROM so people don't have to do this manually.
So, I put the files in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib so they get copied over when the ROM is flashed by the updater-script. However if I do this while the install_flash_player APK is present in /system/app, it seems to erase the contents of that folder causing Flash Player to not work again. I need to find a way to make it so the libs stay in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib.
Any suggestions?

I moved the file to the proper folder using r/o and root explorer, and rebooted

Netflix stopped working today? ?

Worked fine last night.
Still works on incredible.
It says I need new version
but it's not in market?
I have HTC Vision in build.prop
anyone know how to fix it?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
I also used the htc vision fix.
I had the exact same problem last night. I opened netflix & couldn't use it, just got a message saying there was an update for the netflix app and I could not use the app till I downloaded the update. Clicking on the Ok button took me immediately to the update on the market, the screen where you can click to download the app.
Then the updated version of the app wouldn't work. Just an error message saying something like there is a problem with my netflix account, or my device has been deactivated at netflix.com.
I got it working again but had to try lots of things. I deleted the updated app, and tried restoring the older version from titanium backup, but got the same message about needing to install the update,& updated app gave same error message. Cruising around netflix.com website wasn't useful, my device (nc) hadn't been ' deactivated' as far as I could tell.
Side loading the netflix app didn't work. After I reloaded the old app ( titanium) a few times, & updated & rebooted a few times, i started getting stuff to play sound, but no picture. Then I discovered it will work perfectly after a reboot, but only for the very first thing you pick! After that it's just sound again, & i have to reboot again to watch something else!
Anybody else having a netflix issue?
[Solved] Netflix weirdness
It appears there is a new client version. 1.2.1 build 843839-1.2.0-30
I copied the apk from my Incredible (one of the supported phones),
and used Titanium Backup to uninstall, and Root Explorer to install
new apk. The new file is a little bigger, I guess it adds new supported
phones. The apk has the same file name but is a different file.
That fixed it for me.
I attached the apk (taken from my Incredible).
Interesting.....
I had the modified .apk which didn't need a prop.build change.
Of course, it died last night like the above threads state.
Wouldn't let me update it either as everytime I tried to install, it would error out...
But, I went an uninstalled the program (first deleteing cache) then found the program in the market and it installed with no problem....
It runs fine... no chipmunks.... nada....
Lucky I guess.... Running CM7 off the emmc on an overclock of 1200.

Woops, hit the thanks by accident I was trying to quote your post. So you didn't modify your build.prop and the updated client works without chipmunk voices? I'm running .32 CM7 after a restore to stock (was having issue with a later nightly) and when I downloaded the updated Netflix app it still gave me chipmunk voices until I edited build.prop again.
Are you running 7.0.x stable or one of the newer (.32) nightlies?
I am using CM7.0.3 - encore stable.
I also am using the ext4-CM7-dalingrin-OC-emmc-042411 overclock set to 1200.
These are running from the internal. Not an SD card.
I have had zero issues with netflix.
The stable (and the .29 kernel nightlies) have no problems running Netflix now that device check has been disabled.
It's only the .32 installs (later nightlies and beta1) that have the chipmunk voice regardless of what Netflix client is used (and thus needs the build.prop mod)
Just to add to the conversation. The Netflix Market Update worked perfectly fine for me.

I just updated to CM7 Nightly #93 via ROM Manager yesterday.
The only thing I had to do was update build.prop with the HTC Vision information to get it working again.

Edit: Just updated to #94 via ROM Manager, updated build.prop again, rebooted, and still working.
NOTE: I updated to most current version of CWM using ROM manager prior to CM7 update as well...
running rooted 1.2 with dalingrin's OC kernel --> was able to install and run netflix from market but had the chipmunk / fast forward feature... changed my build.prop with the HTC/Vision mod and all works great.
FYI, I was able to copy the latest apk from my Nexus One to the Nook Color, and Netflix is working again.
Can't get Netflix to work after update
I am at a total loss what to do. I updated my netflix app like it asked me to but now it lets me put my login info in (all red screen) and then I hang where it is a white screen with Netflix in a red bar at the top of my nook color. It never goes any farther than that and it used to work for me great before the update and I am doing the Vision HTC build prop thing and I have tried clearing data. Any thoughts. Thanks

Exact same thing just happened to me. But I actually got it to work after the update. Then today it suddenly started giving me the white screen with Netflix at the top. Arggg.
Ditto for me on my ManualRooted Nook; however, Netflix still works from my SD-based CM7. What are you guys running on?
What I am running
I am running on Manual nootered latest 4.5.25 and I am running the OC kernel from Dalingrin.
I have exactly the same problem. Running the same combo.
So far I've uninstalled, and re-installed, cleared dalvik cache, but nothing has made a difference.

[HOW TO] *New Instructions* Add Amazon VOD to Android Phone

*NEW INSTRUCTIONS*
Today I figured out how to get Amazon Video On Demand app on my phone and watch videos
I did this with a rooted phone, I am not sure if you phone needs to be rooted to accomplish this task. I have attached the required files to accomplish this task. These steps are assuming you have a rooted phone.
REQUIREMENTS:
Download attached APKs
Wireless connectivity
VooDoo OTA for rooted phones (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper)
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Copy downloaded APKs to your phone
2. Install each APK and make sure to click DONE after each installs
3. Enable phones Wireless and connect via WiFi
4. Go to your phone SETTINGS>ACCOUNT AND SYNC
5. Press ADD ACCOUNT
6. Press AMAZON and enter your Amazon Prime credentials
7. Start the VooDoo OTA app
8. Press TEMP.UN-ROOT and allow the program to temporarily unroot your phone
9. Reboot your phone
10. When the phone comes up, still be attached via wireless and try your app
I hope this works for everyone who tries, please report your findings
Currently this app only works on wireless it will not work with your cell signal. I am looking to see if I can figure out how to enable the app to use the cell signal, I'm not a developer but I do have an idea to try!
ill try this on my Amaze 4G when i get home

Are you doing this on a phone or on your Fire?
I wonder if you can remove root from some alternative method and see if you can run VOD, perhaps remove BurritoRoot if that's what you have installed.
There is something about CM7 that amazon does not like. I have never gotten it to work on CM7, even after temp unrooting. But if I did the same thing on a none cm7 rom, it worked fine. Go figure.

It's on a fire. Before I flashed CM7 over, I was running just a rooted fire, and voodo ran just fine allowing amazon video to work when needed. Would be a shame if I couldn't get it to run on CM7.. not a huge loss, just would like to see if it could work on this variant..
That's too bad that it doesn't work on CM7
Maybe I should try it and see what I can find out
will try and post quick feed back

I copied the apk's and ran the installs. It won't let me login to Amazon even. I just grabbed the apk's from the Kindle Fire .bin file though. I'll try the ones you have for download in your post and see if they work differently.
Hmm, MAC wasn't the problem
I'm on ICS and when I try to add an Amazon account I get a failure. I've checked my MAC and it's the same as under stock, but what does concern me is my serial number is all 0's.
Has anyone got this to work under ICS? Is everyone's serial number all 0's? Any other hints on how to get VOD working?

I keep updating 10.2, latest nightly installed. Still have problems with NETFLIX which loads but when I select a movie the screen is split horizontally and the bottom part has bands of color. Am I the only one experiencing this?
Check this it happened to me and I got it fix by flashing the persistent zip file.

To be clear: what version of Netflix is this, and if it's a newer version than 1.8.1, did you have any workarounds installed when you were experiencing the problem?
NETFLIX

Thank you, I don't know how to tell what version of NETFLIX it is, I downloaded the latest version. After I had the symptoms listed I went to the NETFLIX workaround instructions but I'm not sure I got through it correctly, things didn't happen per the instructions so I just "winged it". There was no change to the symptoms.

The newer versions of Netflix do not work on the NC running CM10. Either use Netflix 1.81 (search the forum for the APK) or flash the persist zip referred by Mikito1976.
Hey guys, I can confirm that the new version of Netflix 2.4.1 works with the 9/9 nightly version. Again I'm running the 9/9 nightly. If I record right, this is what I did.
1. Every time before I flash a new build I always wipe dalvik cache and cache from recovery, then I flash the new build.
2. For the Netflix I cleared the cache and data straight from the manage app settings, then I uninstalled the app, went back to the play store and installed the app.
3. I then opened Netflix which opened just fine but the picture was distorted like the pic above from my first post.
4. I went again to the manage app settings and cleared the cache and data.
5. Then, I went into recovery mode and flashed the persist zip.
6. Once the Nook booted I opened Netflix and it worked and still works as of today. Note: the play is not smooth but it's watchable.
Side note: after testing Netflix I went and uninstalled the xpose framework to see if the new version of Netflix needed it but Netflix still works after uninstalling the framework.

Can I ask you to back out the "persistent" fix, then provide a logcat and dmesg from running Netflix (and presumably getting the screwed-up picture)? It sounds like there may be hope for fixing things properly here.

Hey Steven 676, I'll be glad to do so. I'll tried my best but bare with me since I'm not that savvy when it comes collecting info with a logcat. And can you feel me up with what is dmesg? Not sure what it is and a prefer to ask when I don't know something, if you don't mind. Thanks.
Already Google what is dmesg and how to do the logcat, thanks.

Hey Steven 676,
I collected the logcat and the dmesg log before and after but I'm not sure if I did it right. Now the good news is that I was able to recreate the distorted screen and fix it again.
This is what I did. I used terminal emulator.
I ran the logcat and dmesg log before flashing the RemoveNetflix hack zip.
I flashed the remove Netflix hack zip from recovery mode.
After that I cleared the cache and data from manage app settings and uninstalled Netflix, then rebooted. Then installed Netflix again and then the distorted screen appeared.
How I got the screen fix again.
Cleared cache and data and uninstalled Netflix, then rebooted.
Installed Netflix, rebooted to recovery mode and flashed the persist hack zip. Rebooted, opened Netflix, signed in and it was fix.
Here is the logcat and dmesg files, hope this can be helpful, let me know if I did something wrong when pulling the logcat and dmesg.

Er, I can't see that -- it says I don't have access.

I don't see any attempt to run Netflix in the "before". I assume "after" means "patch backed out, video displays distorted"? If so, this (from the logcat) is interesting:
Code:
09-11 12:26:44.937 D/720p_OMX_VidDec_Parse( 1296): VIDDEC_ParseHeader : 1642 Parsed Width = 320, Parsed Height = 240, Crop Width = 0, Crop Height = 0, OutPort WIDTH = 480 , OutPort Height 360
In other words, it's trying to display a 320x240 video in a 480x360 container. While this is somewhat strange, it should work -- this points to a bug in our video scaler. A corresponding logcat from running Netflix with the workaround applied would be useful to compare with.
