Netflix on SM-T380 - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

I recently acquired a T380 to use for reading, music & some movies. I tried to install Netflix on it but the app keeps crashing saying "app is not compatible with this device". I have tried different versions of the app with the same outcome. It is running Oreo 8.1 with the April 2019 security patch. The netflix guy had me looking for a setting in Play store, Play Protection Certification". I do not have that setting. Any ideas?

Google swrvices and purevpn

Dear all,
I just bought a Huawei Nova in Shanghai (chinese version). It has 5.1 emui. But no google services. Ive tried to download and install them and gave all permissions but still not able to start. Also i did install purevpn apk but it is frozen again at the beginning. It is about android 7? How can i solve this problem? Best,
Probably it's the same story as with Xiaomi phones with Chinese ROMs. Google is banned in China that's what you cannot use it. Try to find official international ROM for your device and flash it.
Hiapp has a modified google play and google play services. It worked on my device in China on EMUI 4. Not sure why the apk is force closing. Do they have options to set up the vpn manually?
hank you but i do not want to flash a rom. i found out that purevpn app is freezing when i was trying to start hiapp's google play. after removing it, it works but slow (nothing to do here). but still sad about google play and other google services part.

I now run LineageOS on my phone, so I have flashed GApps. Before that I was on EMUI 4 and it seemed fine with HIapps google. There is a free VPN called zerovpn and I got that to work in most places (again I am also in China).

Google Camera problem

Hi,
I was using a Google Camera app without any problems since I remembered on my Moto X Style.
Event after Nougat update it wasn't any problem.
Yesterday I made a full factory reset and I was suprised by the play store. There is no anymore possibility to install Google Camera from store!
It's not compatible with our device any more. It looks like before it was compatible. I was looked a app on apkmirror but all of them required android 7.1+ (since 4.2 version).
Version 4.1 doesn't looks like that I was using before (there is no hdr option there).
Is there anyone who still have a Google Camera app from play store on Moto X Style and can extract apk from device?
It's been very long since Google has made Google Camera exclusive to their nexus and pixel phones only. It would show phone not supported for any other phone trying to access Google Camera via play store.

Not so long... In a middle of 2017 I made a full factory reset and that app was still available in store for me.
Yesterday I checked friend Note 4 and it wasn't available too bu my friend had already installed that.
Unfortunately there is no possibility to export apk from adroid 6.0 to 7.0...
So maybe there is someone on xda who still have a last version from store with android 7.0?
You can download stock/aroma, 7.0 64bit gapps.zip from opengapps.org and extract googlecamera.apk.

Netflix won't work when nvidia shield TV 2017 downgrade to under 8.0.1

1.when I downgrade my shield tv to 7.2.0 7.2.1 7.2.3 8.0.0 etc, netflix did not work and got -100 error. I try to update netflix to latest version through google play, Unfortunately no work.
2.when I downgrade my shield tv to 8.0.1, netflix is work fine, so I think netflix will detect system version to decide whether to provide netflix services.
3.do anyone have research how to ban netflix detect system version?
是的,我也想知道
Netflix has always supported a minimum os version. You would need to find a hacked Netflix apk.

Only an ancient version of youtube app (14.31.50 from 2019) available from the play store

Hi,
I have installed the official lineageos-18.1 and opengapps 11 on my S5 (G900F). For some strange reason, I can only install an old version of the youtube app from the play store (14.31.50 from 2019), which only works once before asking to be updated. Functionality can be restored by clearing data but this is not sustainable. Has anybody seen this and can this problem be fixed? Thanks!
It's only very recently that this version of YouTube has stopped working. I think the Play Store just doesn't serve newer versions to the S5, but you can probably sideload newer versions.
I use YouTube Vanced, the current version of which works fine on the S5, but the current versions of that are broken with Chromecast. Apart from that, it works fine for playing videos.
Around the same time as your post, someone on Reddit encountered the same issue on a Note 3. They resolved it by installing an APK - presumably from one of those mirror sites?
And finally, here's an issue on the LineageOS issue tracker which may be worth a read: YouTube app is not getting update.
Thanks for the link to the bug. I did try sideloading the apk and it did work, but it is not really sustainable in the long run. I will keep looking.
Any news on this? The same thing happens to me on LOS 18.1 and an Galaxy S4 LTE (GT-I9506).
Fixed by installing a newer version off of apkmirror.com, not really a good (=permanent) fix though.

Netflix and Android Auto apps on LineageOS 18.1

Hello, as per title I can download Android Auto from the Play Store but can't update it after I launch the app. Different story for Netflix, which apparently isn't available for this device, or more probably, for this rom version. Do I have to upgrade to 19.1 or is there a safe alternative to where I can download/update them from?
