It seems the apk for Netflix has been leaked can't seem to get it to work fully but maybe someone else can.

I was able to install and launch. I can search movies and manage my queue, but I get an error if I try to stream. Looks more like Netflix is blocking it than a system error.
It would be great to get Netflix streaming.

Netflix not streaming seems to be a DRM issue. More info in this thread.

Amazon Prime bought Netflix of Europe,try their 30 day free movies on their instant video page,3000 movies so far, Free!
I use it on my A7,its great.After free trial its only $79.95 yr.
That s cheaper than Netflix USA and Blockbuster.
Thanks! I am a prime member but didn't know vids could be played on my elocity.

Netflix - Amazon Prime?
I am also a Prime member and can stream videos just fine to my Mac or my lil netbook, but when I try on the A7 tab, it returns a message that Amazon does not have this set up yet for mobile devices. I've even tried signing in through various browsers to the full Amazon site, but each time it seems to recognize my device and says it's not supported.
If you are running something that allows you to stream videos, please do tell!
there are some alternatives to playing hulu / netflix on your mobile...
PlayOn makes it possible to stream from your pc to mobile/tablet.
TVersity makes it possible to stream from hulu.com (no netflix i think)
on your tablet, use something like Skifta to play the DLNA stream, it works.. i tried it with Tversity / hulu.com .. not perfect, but it works..
maybe someone got a better dlna based and cheaper solution?
Netflix app released on market work with several devices wonder how we can make the a7 look like the evo 4g.

if it rely on "DRM" , A7 does not even support it at all..
my port "Blur" do support it, but not sure if its 100% implemented correctly from my side with directories and apps running.
A7 stock firmware has not support at all for DRM media.

I'm confused. I'm able to run Amazon Prime video no problem on mine. I don't remember if there was a app on amazon or what (my fuzzy brain seems to be telling me that there was a download prompted by Amazon the first time I went to the video section).
Hi,
I'm not sure if possible, is there a way to sideload the Amazon video app on the Xoom? Or is it possible? I have Amazon Prime and would like to watch the free movies/tv shows with the same app the Fire uses.
Thanks,
Good idea, since the Fire was just rooted there's probably a system dump over on the Fire forums.

As a workaround, the browser works very well to view Amazon Prime videos as long you have Flash installed. On my stock 4G 3.2.2 system, the video was prone to the occasional stutter. But after rooting and overclocking, The video is flawlessly smooth in full screen HD.

^ this. Also appears that people who are rooting their devices are breaking the app, same with us and the ability to rent movies in the market apparently. Amazon won't let devices that are rooted stream from Amazon Prime.
But I guess we just wait and see. I have Amazon Prime also and would love to just have an App directly for Amazon to utilize it.

No luck...
Tried on my root'ed Xoom, just get a Force Close every time I try to do anything. I did try on my root'ed Galaxy S2, and I just get the error message about it not being able to play on a device "configured" like that (aka root'ed).
I am curious if anyone with a non-rooted Xoom has had any success.

Just constant FC on my Xoom when I try and select anything as well. Was able to load it on the G2 but says same thing about the configuration.
The Kindle Fire OS is based off of gingerbread so maybe that's the reason for the constant FC on Honeycomb? I don't know.

I unfortunately do not have Verizon service on my Xoom as I travel too much for it to really be useful, since most countries don't really use CDMA so I'm sorry I can't answer that question. Funny since I've restarted the damn thing force closes when I select something to watch.
Also on a side not I'be read that KindleFire users are losing streaming capabilities when they root.

I had the opposite experience when I tried it on my LTE-upgraded, non-rooted Xoom. I can browse the app, but selecting anything results in a force close.
same here on a rooted x00m4g just need a way to login and not force close when i try to access something. Hopefully someone can hack this apk like they did for the netflix app.
Unrooted stock Xoom WiFi. Installs and operates, but FCs whenever I try to watch or buy anything. Needs some tweaking to make it work on the Xoom, evidently.
I have a non-rooted xoom Wi-Fi and it FC's every time.
Has anyone been able to get Amazon Video to play on the Xoom w/out FC?

Hi, removing other amazon apps helped, i finally got underground store working.
Before I had Prime Video Launcher with Amazon VOD running. If I now try to install the Prime Video Launcher including Amazon VOD, I get an error for Amazon VOD.
Is it not possible to run both?
Thanks

From what I've tested... No. Is there a reason why you need the app store?

Some games are free and cost you money on Google.
E.g. Beach Buggy Blitz. Free on both but the Amazon version is fully loaded with split screen 2-4 players and all levels.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic $9.99 on Goolge Play. $0 on AU.
Riptide GP2. Google $2.99. Amazon $0.
Don't get me wrong I love Google and dislike the Amazon Ecosystem but...
How do you run Amazon instant video I can't get it too show all content and it tells me to install something but fails so I click later to bring me to menu of the instant video

It is, you can have a look here.
Otherwise, on my side using the StockRestyle ROM, I managed to have both using the version 2.0.45.1210 of Instant Video. Important: I installed both of them first, and only then launched them one after the other.
The links were removed?
Why does amazon get to remove links from this forum? Can you link to a forum that doesn't have such stupid restrictions? All it was trying to do was help amazons services run better on this device. I guess that it would be in there interest for it not to work because then maybe you would buy one of their tablets instead... but to let them remove links? Seems really bad.
I want to purchase the shield TV but only if this app works properly. I have a another Android TV (Mi Box) and I cannot get live streams from the app, only on demand. Thank you.
Yes it works via sideload app I have been using it for months. Just make sure you use the actual controller and not the remote as you will need the right stick to maneuver it.
OK cool, so you can live stream TV just like on a tablet?
Wanted to confirm if this is the x1 app or the older go app? Thinking to get a shield to use for extra comcast tv box.
for me running full marshmallow, go app works, newer TV app gives an error stating it's only compatible with mobile devices. Anybody know a workaround for that?
I just got the Shield TV Pro and the Xfinity TV go app does work just like it does on my Shield tab. I cannot get the newer Xfinity TV app to work though. I hope there is a fix for it as the newer app is better and I have a feeling they are going to discontinue the older app soon since the Xfinity website has ready been changed to look like the new app.
Does the new XFinity TV app work now that the XFinity TV Go app has been shut down?
any one have any info on getting the xfnity app to work...on nvidia shield... i sideloaded the app it just crashes ....thanks

It works on Marhsmallow but crashes on Nougat. At least I did have a working version on Marshmallow before I upgraded my shield. Not sure if the crash has to do with Comcast or simply with Android N
That stinks

Not sure if this is true where you are...its the carrier package that can determine the resolution of playback limited it too 480 instead of taking advantage of the full abilities of the screens resolution...

But i have the unlocked version and is connected to the wifi ....

L1 DRM is not the only requirement for Netflix. The device needs to be "whitelisted" by them. See "Netflix in HD" here:
https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23939
It looks like they did not whitelist the Snapdragon 632 processor, even though they did list 630. Netflix is annoying like that.
I cannot find Netflix in Google play store
Hi there,
I have a Moto G7 (US version) with Amazon Alexa Hands-Free – Unlocked, with its firmware totally replaced with the Stock US retail firmware. Everything is fine except I cannot run Netflix. I cannot find Netflix from Google play store. I tried to download several netflix apk files from apkmirror.com and install them but all of them failed to run with the message that the version of Netflix is not compatible with my phone.
Does this happen to you? Which version of netflix did you use? Where did you get it?
Thanks.
I found this version to work Netflix 3.16.6 build 5382 (arm) (Android 4.0+) https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netfl...6-6-build-5382-android-apk-download/download/
