So after seeing that the transformer got netflix i went and tried the solution with out any changes.
*I take no credit for these files or figuring this out. I was just the lucky guy who decided to flash this first
1. Download both files
2. Install the netflix apk
3. Reboot Recovery
4. Install GT10.1Netflix_patch.zip via CWM
5. Reboot System
6. Enjoy
*************************
What the patch is doing is renaming the libnvomx.so in the /system/lib/ to a .bak
Then placeing then new one into /system/lib/
If there are any problems then you can use the libnvomx.so.bak so go back to default.
The libnvomx.so file is from a Xoom. Which does seem to work for our devices
*************************
So there it is folks... if you like it and it works well for you just tap the "Thanks" button for me
Pardon my ignorance, but how is this any different than just installing the APK file from yesterday? Who was this not working for (ie - what rom?)
Really no need to go through that much trouble. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1177969
The difference is that this should work with the Netflix updates to the app. So that you will not have to wait for a modded apk every time
What is in this patch file exactly?
Netflix up and running
I installed Netflix on my SGT today. Works perfectly. Didn't realize how many TV shows they offer (besides movies). For two bucks a week, it's worth it.
Does anyone know how to get this to work on the tab outside the US?

Thanks a bunch. Once I updated to UX I'd been having issues with my old .apk not working. Great! Now if I can finally get wifi tether working I'll be a happy "tabber".
Is there a problem that you are having?
Also is netflix in your country?
Should this fix my 12001 error I keep getting? The patched 1.3 does not work for me. I keep getting the same error.
I'm not sure about anyone else, but I've had the stock APK running just fine on HC 3.1 since I got my tablet last week.
I'm not rooted or anything, running nothing but the latest ROM update from Samsung, which is 3.1 of Honeycomb and I installed the offical APK of Netflix 1.3 and it has worked just fine, other than a lack of having video in correct HD settings.
I know this will take care of the 12001 error issue.. As for the HD issue. It did help me and a few others. I haven't had many people say anything about it. But that if you would like to try as well that would help me see if i can do anything about it, (if there is an issue).
The patch.zip simply renames the former file to a .bak just in case of any negative issues
Okay. So I have the stock apk installed and it runs well. My only issue is that I don't get full hd. Has this update fixed the hd issue for anyone?
Also, if/when Netflix launches official support for the GT is there any way to undo this? (if necessary)
Be aware that the "stock" apk is not working on the LTE version. It will open but gives an unable to communicate with server error.

You have to get a account from Strong Vpn.
I am paying 7,5 usd a month.
When you have the account from Strong , setup your device to use a vpn, and all your traffic will go thru that vpn. The ip address of the vpn will be an us one, and and netflix will allow you to sign in.

Thats part of the beauty of this... its takes the original libnvomx.so file and renames it libnvomx.so.bak and then places the new file there. so that when the Offical app comes out you can simply revert back.. when that comes out i will add another zip to revert back to make it simple on everyone...
I am looking into the HD problem as we speak....

Hi all,
We have a new firmware, 2.3.20
I think it's enough to write
Regards.
Damn, and I just switched over to UrukDroid. What am I supposed to do now?

switch back to stock or wait until urukdroid devs merged the changes into urukdroid
Some tests with the new firmware should be done.
Can it be downgraded back to 2.1.08?
Is archangel working?
Anybody volunteer to being the Guinea pig?
Because they have changed the format of the Medialibrary, they prevent the downgrade.
Wifi channels above 10 are not working atm.
Otherwiese it feels better.
It looks smoother than before. And I had somr problems with some piano apps before there was no voice with some of them. But now all of them working. I don't know it's related with fw though
On my archos 101 the browser is now much smooter and multi touch zooming is better and everithing is lot faster even some games aren't so laggy.

a) if Archos really closed the leak which archangel was using to gain root privileges, they have to find another leak and you have to wait until they found it
b) you have to use the SDE root method (which will be available as soon as I get my A101IT back from Archos)
c) life without root privileges
I installed 2.3.02, but the downgrade doesn't work (the update is too old...).
Is there an other possibility to downgrade?
No, no downgrade possible.
Does upgrading to newer fw clears/deletes my current files? Im still using 2.0.71 fw.

Is this actually still 2.2, despite the release #?
Also, anyone else out there use Move2SD enabler (root) and then do this upgrade? I am a little nervous what will happen with those apps that were previously moved to SD in this non-standard way.
Thanks,

Archos release numbers have nothing to do with what version of Android that is being run.
There is no root in this firmware yet so Move2SD will not work. The regular apps2sd that is built in to Froyo will work though.
Thanks for the quick response.
I still am unclear what will happen with the apps that I already moved prior to the upgrade.

They won't work. At least that is my guess as I have never used that program before.
Is it worth it though?? Your thoughts....
Ok, I have my A101IT rooted via Chulri's way and it's running smooth n' sweet but I have a question about this apparent new updated Firmware Version 2.3.02? Am I correct to have understood that ..."there was a leak but the leak is currently non-existent and you can't get the new 2.3.02 Firmware any more"? If not, where can you get it... (I.E. - Posting a link to it)?
Also, with those of you who have tested this new Firmware 2.3.02 and/or are currently using it on their Archos 70/101IT tablet (granted it's possible to install right now)... is it worth updating to AND other than "not being able to downgrade because of the Media Library issue are there any other reported issues or areas of concern? How about any advantages over Froyo 2.1.08 WITH full Root Access (which is what I currently have)? Would there be any improvements in things such as Overclocking speed and lag issues with this new 2.3.02??
OK that's my first post here,
I had urukdroid 0.7 installed. I restarted in android mode and downloaded the AOS FILE, then restarted an proceeded with the upgrae. I dont have the root rights anymore but can choose to start in android mode (2.3.02) or in developer mode (urukdroid) 2.1.8 , I can remote control the Archos 101 from my Samsung Galaxy S iin android mode not in Urukdroid. The bootloader is 4.04.000000. I hope it helps.
The other problem is that I had to dislable the screen autosleep as it doesn't wake up anymore in android mode (That's not the case in developer Urukdroid mode).
PS: I still have the root rights in Urukdroid (developer mode), I had to clean the Titanium backup cache as it didn't showed anymore the applications.
Is there any hope that Netflix will play on the iconia?
I would think that it would be a better choice to make Netflix work on tablets before phones but this just doesn't look like the way it is going to play out.
Can the iconia just not play video good enough or just being ignored by Netflix?
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
got an idea if anyone can do it
So I was messin around abit yesterday and had some brainbstorms yesterday. If you run Linux you can't run silverlihgt hence no Netflix via browser. However if you install the add on called moonlight through Firefox or chrome you can do a work around via desktop on PC and stream throuhg the browser. I believe the browser on the tab is a variant of chrome. Would it be possible to rebuild moonlight into an addon or apk for the browser either in debuged desktop compatibility mode as a work around. Thoughts?
I think back in April, the mono guys ( before most were laid off ) showed off a preview of moonlight for Android & it was good... but then they got laid off...
Anyway, I'm sure we'll get Netflix on our Iconias as soon as Netflix is able to guarantee DRM'd playback so the studios won't jump all over their butts.
Has anyone else seen the recent news on the Netflix app in the last 24 hours?
Version 1.3 adds support for 16 new devices, with the only Honeycomb tablet being a Lenovo one. However Xoom users report very high instances of the APK working on their tablets. Most Iconia users have reported the still remaining 12001 error. However you can no longer download Netflix from the market. I have rooted 3.1 and no go for me.
Several people have requested that the people trying it on the Iconia list their ROM / root status, however few have listened.
I'm on rooted OTA 3.1 and I manage to DL the Netflix app before the update and before they banned it from the market on the Iconina and when I open the app it prompted me to update. Attempted to update but I get the "the request could not be found" error from the market.
Even attempted to play with the version I had and I still got the 12001 error.
Btw, here something official from Acer:
http://acer.custhelp.com/app/answer...er-iconia-tab-a500-or-a501-work-with-netflix?

cleared data from app, uninstalled, cleared cache partition from recovery, installed the "Netflix on all devices" apk, Error 12001.. guess ill have to stick with the patch for now..
This is working for me. Stock Iconia, 4 hours out of the box (Android 3.0.1) Rooted, no OTA updates. Netflix also did want me to update but I pressed cancel.
Running stock 3.1 rooted and have tried the official Netflix 1.4 app plus the one posted in this thread. Neither work....Hope either Netflix adds support or someone hacks an apk correctly soon.

+1. Tried em all to no avail. Don't feel a patch that cripples other functions of my device is a good one and will wait. Come on Netflix, get with it already...Hulu too...sigh.
DRM is what keeps us from bootlegging stuff isnt it? ive got netflix working on my a500, with a force close for the back camcorder. rooted. see below for versions.
someone want to help me understand DRM? i know it is to protect the people that make money from netflix, but since i have it working on my a500 and there is no DRM for the a500 according to netflix, what does that mean? how does DRM keep me from making copies? i installed the patch to my .so file. which i have a copy of the original if anyone needs it. but what does the patch do exactly? im not trying to rip off netflix, but i woukd like to understand how they are able to stop so many of us from accessing netflix.
I just got this update today. I noticed a new market and an app called App Backup. Any other changes?
If this is a duplicate or doesn't belong here....then sorry and please delete.
Edit - cannot get App Backup to work successfully....multiple tries and nothing doing.
I am verifying the existence of the update and am downloading now.. hopefully this one fixes the deep sleep problem at the very least. Thanks for the heads uo sir!

Absolutely, and it's brilliant. This kind of thought process is what has me hoping that they've managed to make the current dock compatible with the Prime as well.
Took quite a while to check for updates, and then came back saying no update is available. Servers must be getting hammered.

Maybe you have changed some system file and now the sanity check of the update fails. You have to wait until someone upload the update .zip file.

I can't really speak for other users, but the stock browser is definitely working and responding faster for me. It could have something to do with the wifi being upgraded in this latest firmware or something they fixed with the browser, but it's definitely noticeable on my end since I use the tablet daily to surf the web. Also it used to take forever to type in text boxes on the stock browser and now for me it's almost instant. Also EVERY user experience is different (most likely since May), so ironic or not it's still a good thing for other users to report what they're experiencing with new firmware upgrades.

If they based the kernel build on the source tree for the TF101G, mempodroid is gone and unless you backed up su with OTA RootKeeper you'll lose root permanently - that is, until some other local privilege escalation vulnerability pops up (which could take a veeeeery long time).

At least we know they didn't even take the time to look at the .config changes I sent them. Sheesh.
Bottomline: you'll have to wait until the sources for this kernel are out, then you'll have two options:
add CONFIG_L2TP=y to their shipped .config and rebuild the kernel for yourself (tricky)
wait until someone else on XDA does it if you don't like playing with cross-compilers and the like
Oh, you'll need root and CWM as well
I haven't tried to download it bc I am at work, so it is waiting for me when I get home but what Android o/s is it? Still 4.0.3 or did they take initiative and put 4.0.4 on it like the Xoom recently got that seemed to fix all their problems?

Now the question I am wondering is... Is it worth it? Potentially sacrificing root and CWR? I have been running 0.0.7.3 CM9 build for many months now and am curious to what you all think.
Pros/Cons? I've heard battery life is terrible, which is odd because I feel like I have good battery life on the CM9 Port. Also... Is root completely gone? Does OTA Rootkeeper help? My biggest concern (I'd probably even lose root if it is fixed), does the pen work as advertised? Or is the infamous 'pen wonk' bug still present?
Pen wonk = writing notes for ~10-15 minutes, pen is suddenly not responsive. Sleep/waking the device fixes it usually. This has been present in every stock Honeycomb build as well as all the CM9 Port builds so I am very curious if this is fixed because I believe it is a hardware issue (Lenovo please prove me wrong). Any info would be much appreciated.

I was able to go from a rooted, CWM'd device (US 64GB) to a fully rooted device without CWM.
After a few painful steps to get an old busybox file restored and stock recovery enabled, the upgrade process was very simple and so far it is working very well with ICS. There hasn't been enough time to judge battery life yet....
Make sure you follow the instructions that other's have posted about using RootKeeper. That is the only thing I needed to use to restore root perfectly.

That is good news about the ability to keep root. At least in keeping root, we should theoretically be able to restore CWR.

I updated with CWR rather than reverting to stock recovery. Everything worked fine. However, it did get rid of the stock recovery.

How were you able to update using CWR?

I did not have CWR to start.
I downloaded the update through the "update" menu on the device.
Update failed due to gps.conf being modified.
Reverted to what I thought was old gps.conf, update still failed.
Install CWR
Try update through CWR
Still fail, due to indigo being required in build.prop (this error is caused by CWR)
Commented out the Indigo lines in the update-script in the update
Flashed again
Still failed for gps.conf.
Commented out each line in update-script mentioning gps.conf
flashed again, it worked.
I take you flashed 310 first then 400?
Where is the script located?

The update-script is in the META-INF/com/google/android folder in the zip. a # sign will comment out any line.
Do I put the number sign in the front?
