Netflix works with cm7 for the thrill. Yes it is a beta somethings dont work like 3d and hdmi but you will have netflix

Same thing for me, blank screen than return to homescreen. Not installing a custom rom just to have netflix. 3D is the reason I bought this thing.

Like someone else mentioned, we'll most likely have to wait for 2.3 (gingerbread) in some shape or form before this app will work for us.
I'm hoping CM7 pans out quickly and gets some of the errors resolved. Its the only rom I've ever wanted to use on my captivate

Im running CM7 on my thrill and Netflix opens just fine. Dont know if it works fully but i imagine it does. Android 2.3.5 on here

Another netflix update
Just noticed that Netflix had another update today. I'm on stock rom (only rooted), and this version opens up fine and can play videos.
Now everybody can enjoy Netflix without needing a different rom.

Yeah this is working for me too, guess I don't have to cancel my account now

Now it's working perfectly on thrill. No need to root or custom rom.(Unless if you want):

They just put up seasons 1-3 of Breaking Bad!
I highly recommend it

Youtube updated

I was looking for something in the app market and happened to run across this. Looks like a new update for Youtube. Seems like a little smoother interface and bit more finger friendly. Just figured I'd share!
The native YouTube app? Or are you talking about a 3rd party one?
I ask because I'm not getting an update notification. Since its one of my most used apps I'm definitely interested in any new improvements
The native app. I didnt get a notification for it either but it's def a different verision then what I had before. Try searching for it in the market.
I think it may be for 2.2 only.

I'm running Cog Beta 5.5. Which is 2.2.
But, it looks like it is completely separate than the YouTube app which comes pre installed on the captivate. Just downloaded, and so far I like it.
Here's the Appbrain
EDIT: It also allows you to edit the SafeSearch controls. Which I had heard previously Samsung (or ATT) disabled.

Can anyone else confirm this? I never got a backup so I don't want to upgrade unless this is true.

It definitely does let you edit the safe-search controls. First thing I did was turn them off
still cant watch a lot of music videos (thanks to VEVO) and a bunch of popular videos (worst dj ever) are still not viewable or searchable.
Have to use the regular Youtube site and use flash for those videos.
It clearly states on the AppBrain page that it is for 2.2 and up, so no dice for us Eclair users.

new and improved....
yeah,i downloaded this yesterday and i really like this version- the interface looks much better dark and i like that i have access to my channel when away from my computer...found out about the new youtube app through android central-no notification was sent to me since the captivate doesn't officially have 2.2?(i have the leaked 2.2 )
thanks for the headsup!!
New app looks awesome Thanks for the find.
Can someone please go to the new YouTube app (if you have it) go to settings and see what the application version is, please?
2.0.26

Really liking the new update. Again this is for 2.2 only, it didn't show up as an update to my current youtube app, but it did replace it once I downloaded and installed it.
Hopefully Google continues to add more and more of the stock apps to the market... one way to combat the horrors of Sense, TouchWiz, etc.

Ported to 2.1

Definitely an improvement but still can't comment from within the app which I hope they implement

Movies App from google now released (wifi)

all you xoom wifi owners check your market there should be videos app waiting for you in updates.
i see it but shouldnt we have a section in the market to rent movies now? i dont see the market update yet
yeah nothing in market yet but you can see movies you rented in the app and the shop goes to online im sure they will reroute it soon.
Its not just wifi Xooms i have a Vzw 3G Xoom and i got the update a little bit ago.
I see it but it does not install for me on us wifi stock 3.1 with unlocked bootloader.
yup, can't install on mine
please post videos apk
Can someone please post the apk so us rooted users can try it out and get a look at it etc..
The!
I have 3.1 stock will not install but just started showing device is compatible
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
This has been said before, but just as a reminder. You won't be able to install it if your bootloader is unlocked. You have to be completely stock and locked.
Just because we are told it won't work doesn't mean we can't get it to work.
Anyone have the apk yet?
Sent from my Tablet
I never said that somebody wont be able to make it work. Just that you won't be able to install it from the market. And as far as making it work, one would need to remove the checks that it does for modified devices.
I've had this on my wifi xoom ever since using BRD's method to update to 3.1. Is this update a true update? How do I get rid of the update notice?
Finally!!!!!!!
after 190909090 attempts!!! started to download and its working!!
Probably was something wrong with the google server not allowing to download.
try it again. everyone should be good to go.
still no go for me

Not entirely true it can be installed if your rooted, however you will not be able to watch rented videos.
My rooted wifi got the update via market today and installed without any issue.
I finally got it to install by first opening up the gallery and then going back to the market and clicking on update. I am rooted and running Tiamat Kernel.
Still no go for me either. For those of you that got the update today did your market change as well?
Anybody mind posting the movies apk?

Netflix on the market? for stock 2.2 no less

So I downloaded netflix from the market, and it says in the list of supported devices that the HTC Thunderbolt is one. Now it does install and accepts your username password, you can see your qeue and it attemps to play the vid, but fails with a DRM required message. any one else seeing this? if you search for it it will not appear, but if you select apps, all apps, free apps then scroll down its listed. click install and try to enjoy a mostly usable app.

yep no go for me also. Someone on Android Central claims his works on stock but yeah general consensus says other wise.
Mine works on CM7 perfectly! I did a search for Netflix it found and downloaded fine. Logged in and started a movie!

it will never work on stock or rooted froyo for the thunderbolt (at least not without netflix directly supporting it). person that said it did on that forum is full of it. amount of effort to make it work would not be worth it. GB will be out soon and nearly everyone has it already on here. Anyone who wont root to get netflix obviously doesnt want it bad enough

Ok ok, im not a dev, but.... Look at the LG Revolution. It is running 2.2.1 and netflix runs perfectly out of the box. in my ignorance, I dont know why it would be any more dificult to modify it to work with other froyo devices. Im sure one of the software type bullys will pick me appart here.. By the way... XDA isn't a friendly place any more. boo to flamers... (will probably get flamed for that) HA

Netflix does NOT need GB to function, it appears as if it needs it for the TBolt but not overall. That being said they made Droid Bionic support available so take everything with a grain of salt. Maybe GB will be coming soon and rather than fix issues with the TBolt again soon they figured set it up for GB and users can use it then (and root users now ).

I just installed Netflix on my stock TB & it works very well. It was a little glitchy for the first 3-4 seconds, maybe 5, but after that, clear as a bell. No complaints here. About damn time...
Netflix app was just updated again!!! Everyone that had issues before try it out!
Yep update seems to fixed the play back issue.... WOOT!
Yep, confirmed working here too. Stock Froyo unrooted, latest update.
Confirmed. Just updated. Netflix now streaming on stock Thunderbolt. Thank God!!!

I never said all of froyo...I said thunderbolt + froyo. However, I am glad to see that it looks like netflix finally fixed it for the thunderbolt on froyo (the only way I said it would ever work for it).

Uninstall, download from market & reinstall.
I never understood the appeal of watching netflix on a cell phone. I tried it a couple of times & never finished the movie. Tablets & netbooks are much better suited for that job, imho

LG Revo Netflix Choppy Playback

I am pretty much a noob but I have seen several complaints about this. I have the stock Android 2.2 rom rooted. I dont know technically why this worked but I uninstalled Flash 10.3 update and uninstalled Netflix update. Redownloaded Netflix from Market and then applied Flash 10.3 update and appears to be working smoothly. I read one place that netflix doesnt even use flash but I cant explain why reverting fixed it
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Never had this issue and this is a highly used app for my phone with 3 kids. Poor service / back grounded apps maybe ? Or maybe decrapified rom ftw?!
im gonna have to try this mines been choppy since day one
Does the Netflix app sense your connection speed? Considering your connection speed is constantly changing, it just overall wouldn't be a good app. I personally don't use it, cuz I don't like to watch on such a small screen. I get it with 3 kids, but my 2 kids know they will not be touching my $600 dollar phone.
Nevermind.. Ran smooth for one day then back to choppy. Even on wifi..
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
I understand that as far as kids touching them. I haven't every had a problem with my kids but given my back ground and the fact I run a small store and fix iPhone /android handsets its not a problem. I still don't gather why people are having issues with the Netflix app maybe its service.
I am having issues with NetFlix after the update
Just installed Revolt Rom 1.0 from the dev page.. so far Netflix is running smooth and the Rom is great. I will update if that changes..
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Just FYI... the Revolt 1.1 has retained the smooth netflix playback.. MT whatever you did.. it worked! !!!

Netflix out on Market for Xoom

Netflix today release its app for Honeycomb. Should be able to update it in your Market.

I'm running stock and is working great. Seems like a lot of the lag is gone with the menus. You might try uninstalling any previous version first.
mine as well is locked on the netflix loading. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the market and nothing.
same here. Reinstalled previous version
It was either my Tiamat 2.2.1 or something wrong with my GPS.
I moved to 2.2.2 and re-launched it, I saw the GPS signal in the status bar for a few seconds and then I was taken to the login screen. And now it works in Canada on rooted Xoom's!
I got Netflix in my Xoom and it´s working great even with ICS...

Hell yea!!!!
So, I've done some reading and I can't tell. I'm assuming since most of the posts are at least 4 months old, that the Netflix on Xoom issue is over, but my new Xoom is in the mail so I'm curious:
Is Netflix just another app available in the market or do I need to sideload?

It's an app that's been available for the Xoom for quite sometime. Download from the market, have a credit card ready and you're set.
And I'd like to add....Welcome aboard!!!!
