First smart tv - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General

I finally updated to a smart HDTV and it's pretty sweet.
It has android on it, the play store ,dlna, youtube and chrome.
It's like a giant computer and I don't even need my Chrome cast on it anymore to hook up my phone display.
A definite recommend if you are in the market. I got a decent deal on a 55" for 498

Just downloaded netflix and it works

http://www.mediafire.com/?k0iwa8c4tvaxr9s
Just downloaded the file onto my external then used the myfiles to open and install. Works like a charm.
Define "works." Works as in you're able to sign-in to your Netflix account, purchase movies, and then watch them? Netflix has always worked on various phones but no one using an APK version has ever been able to connect to the Netflix servers and actually do anything. It'll be great if it does in fact work on the SGS2.

Stream all netflix content just like on iphone and WP7.
I have been waiting for this for years.
Works like a charm...loving my GS2 more and more each day!
Confirmed working.
Well, holy crap. I'm guessing whatever bizarre DRM requirements Netflix is demanding are built in to the SGS2 already in preparation for inclusion of Netflix on carrier-branded phones. More bragging rights
Works for me as well!
Here's a quick video I did of the Netflix app working on the SGS II.

Streaming looks beautiful. I'm supper excited. I just got my SGS2 yesterday.

It does look good doesn't it. Android just laid the beat down on all Os's. All it was missing was netflix and a good music service. Now it has two music services and netflix. Apple can suck a 3.5 inch penis.

Hi,
Yep, that's me. Still run misticriver.net although as you can imagine, there is no market for iriver now and PMP's are a thing of the past. Loving the SGS II. Also managed to snag a Galaxy Tab 10.1 from Google I/O so looking forward to playing with that a bit.

I did the same, thanks for the tip OP, I was planning on canceling my netflix this month because I couldn't watch it on my phone

Netflix

Has anyone heard when the GT10.1 might be getting Netflix? Or Google Movies?
I love this tablet, but I don't like the lack of optimized tablet apps and the missing Netflix. I'm debating whether to hold onto this tablet and wait because I really do love the look and feel of the tablet and of Honeycomb or if I want to return it for an iPad 2 and come back to an Android tablet in a couple months (or a year) when there are more apps. So...that's why I'm curious about Netflix.
No word yet, but you're better off following this thread in the apps section:

You must be referring to the Asus Transformer.
The iPad was craptastic until the Jailbreakers got to it.

Official Netflix support coming in 3.2?

Just read the same post... YES!!! Finally! ...the earlier apk for rooted TF101s with patch was awesome for sure, but it's great we're finally getting some official love (and support).
Yes, I also own a Xoom running 3.2 and you can sideload the Netflix app on it and it works fine. I am waiting for it to show up in the Market though so I can get the automatic Netflix updates as opposed to the sideloaded version that you must manually update. Hopefully, the TF will get this working in 3.2... Keeping my fingers crossed...

That requires root and the installation of a patch. I have no time for such things (including messing around with unrooting when then next TF update comes), and so having an official Netflix app will be most welcome.
http://eee.asus.com/en/eeepad/transformer/specification
Theyre claiming Netflix(us only) on their site, so possibly after 3.2
Keeping my fingers crossed. I've held out on rooting this far. Love my transformer and honestly can live without netflix on it, but it would surely be a plus to have it added.

Old cheesy B movies and crap peeps don't wanna see. Nah I'm a Netflix subscriber and I do use it a couple times a month at least and it would just be nice to have since many other devices have it is all.

For me it adds an extra component to the transformer that other tablets already have. At this point android is playing catchup to Ipad. (well..everyone is)
They all are, but android has a good chance to get there, but they need to add what competitors offer and then add their own extra spice.
Personally, i have netflix enabled in all my tvs at home, but would love to have it on my TF for road trips. If i stay on a hotel, tether off the phone in the car..it just adds more thrills to an already good device.
Oh, and the TF has replaced the newspaper and book in my restroom. BEST reading material for when taking care of business.. Imagine watching some movie while pooping..lol Legs would fall asleep..

I don't understand WTF is up with Netflix and the TF. It works fine sideloaded on my unrooted Xoom and even my old Viewsonic GTablet has an official Netflix app in the market and it works great. It's rooted but it's Froyo 2.2! It does load in portrait mode but plays back perfect in landscape...

Market - movies tab?

So where is this alleged "movies" tab in my market? I have the videos app, the new market on my incredible (complete with movies section), but no movies tab in the market on my TF?? Is there any way to force-update the market to where it has the movies tab? Or do I have to be patient and wait for an OTA? Thanks in advance

I think that will be available in 3.2. My Xoom is running 3.2 and the movies tab is there in the Market with Apps and Books. Just Apps and Books on my TF running 3.1 build 8.4.4.11... Maybe this week... Cross your fingers...

Maybe not though. I think there is some concern over DRM and such so right now its a Xoom exclusive in Honeycomb, I think the new market is only scheduled to get it for Gingerbread devices.

The movies are expensive anyway from the Market. $4.99 for HD and nothing under $1.99 that I can see... The majority of the movies are $2.99 and $3.99...

I found that I can just go to the Market in the Browser and see the movies from there... when you rent them they show up in your 'My Rentals' Section I believe.
NOTE: I haven't actually rented one.
UPDATE:
Also from the Videos app you can click on 'Shop' in the top right of the screen and it takes you to the browser market movie section.
I have the Movies on my Nexus S, but not on my Transformer and I was hoping to actually watch some movies on it, but I was wondering.. you can't buy movies in the Market right? Only rent them?

Yeah I think so. At the prices I listed above those are rentals and I'm not sure how long the duration is. Has anyone rented one? I can rent one later if it helps our members out to get an answer...

I have rented two movies and the rental period is 24 hours from the tme you start a movie. Meaning you can rent the movie anytime but the clock doesn't start until you start the movie. There is an option to download the movie so you can watch when you don't have connectivity which I tried but after 30 minutes the movie was still about 50% complete on the download and I got tired of waiting. It may not be too cost efficient and but I like the idea of watching a movie anywhere in I go.
Could I rent movies from my rooted dinc? I heard that you couldn't do it from a rooted device a while back when movies first came out

Great info Rich, thank you!
Has anyone ordered a movie and tried to output it on a TV via HDMI? I only get sound but no picture. Do they restrict the picture on the HDMI out when renting a movie?
I dont believe it is dependent on 3.2. I am only running 3.1 and it showed up on my TF last week. I just received a new TOS from google marketplace that I accepted and then there was the new Movies Tab, just to the right of APP and Books.

The new tab didn't show up until I updated to 3.2. So I'm not sure if it's a Market OTA or an Android OTA. But either way, I got the Movies tab

Hi, I jsut got an A500...

for $200 bucks in really good condition! I love this tablet but I would like to know if anybody knows a way to watch Amazon prime videos on it and use the Lending Library for Amazon Prime Members, I haven't done research on this but is this possible?
So you have not tried playing videos off Amazons website yet, last time I did it worked
