No HDR / 2K on Netflix - N950F - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

HI All,
Can anyone confirm they are able to select 2K or HDR on Netflix? I'm in the UK if location has anything to do with it (Not that is should!)
I have top tier subscription, can Watch HDR / 4K content on my TV no issues. However when using Netflix on my phone I only see HD shown when selecting something.
From my understanding the Note 8 was one of the first mobiles to support HDR / 2K?
Cheers
Paul

Yes on May. I guess the security update hadn't been pushed out to your region yet.

Received May security update, still no joy is anyone able to confirm they can see HDR content in Netflix?

Thanks - I get 2160p and HDR in Youtube no problem - just not in Netflix.

I get Netflix 4K on my device in the UK.
N950F, DSE5, INS CSC.

Could CSC have any bearing on this? Im on XEU. And firmware is DSE1 (The latest available to me).

Not sure, I was on XEU prior to the 'PIE' firmwares and think it was working then.
Does your TV use wifi or a 'hard' connection? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that internet speed and quality are a factor. Which also isn't a factor for me since I have a 'superfast' fibre connection (384mbs).
You could also try installing the newer firmware, without changing your CSC.

I hate to be "that guy" but if by 2k you are referring to 1440p, then it actually should be 2.5k. Yes, everyone else is wrong too.
Bonus fact: 2k is actually closer to 1080p (1920 rounded to 2k)

This works so much better than the stock HDR feature - it's actually one of the main reasons why I insisted on a Snapdragon model.
Does anyone know the video recording limit on this camera app ?

There should be a download link on the post, it's right above the interview with the developer. Yes, I have them both installed on my home screen and they both work fine. Just install it like a regular apk.
Seems Note 8‘s camera works as well as google camera?
Is there somewhere that explains the differences in the various algorithms? I searched around but found only bits and pieces.
Also, it would be nice if someone could post which settings actually work for the Note 8. I tried a few and some wouldn't save and others
(I'm not a big camera buff and really don't use my phone's camera that much, otherwise I would.)
I'm seeing people state that the Google Camera is a bit better than the Stock Samsung one, but my experience is the opposite. Google Camera is giving me bad low light performance. I even used setting from the forums and was still subpar. What settings are you guys using?
I couldn't get this to work on my AT&T Note8 un-rooted.

Not correct. Works on Exynos too but if you try to make any changes to settings it'll crash. Only way to revive is by clearing storage from settings!
However I didn't find it significantly better than stock camera and night time/poor lit/dark conditions photos are definitely better with stock camera.

How to get Netflix in HD and HDR in Mate 10/Pro

I managed to get Netflix HD (specially HD because with a 2k display and not being able to get hd content is stupid) and HDR in my Mate 10 (not pro) by changing the device model to the mate 10 RS porshe design NEO-L29, also works changing it to Mate 10 pro BLA-L09. This also may work for the Non supported Mate 10 Pro phones, Netflix only support officially the NEO-L29 and BLA-L09, thats it says in the website.
You need to have magisk root, with safetynet pass in green and modify this file:
/product/hw_oem/ALP-L29/prop/local.prop (mine is ALP-L29 but it might be ALP-AL00, ALP-L09... Or whatever brand you have, check in settings about phone.. So edit the file for your device model)
See the screenshots attachment for more details.
So basically change all the words ALP-L29 (or whatever is your model) in that file to NEO-L29.
Reboot and go to Netflix, which now appears in the playstore and can be installed.
Go to any of the Netflix originals like black mirror or stranger things and you should see the word HDR next to the title.
I don't know if the hdr really works on our device's screen in Netflix but defenitley Netflix now recognises my Mate 10 as a porshe design and as a supported device.
What I can assure is that HD now works because before doing this change, I downloaded an episode of black mirror and the size was 330 mb but after the change the size now is 770 mb(if I change to NEO) and 550 (if I change to BLA-L09) and obviously it looks sharper...
HDR seems to work too, The shows with hdr support seem to look better than the ones where it says HD only, the blacks seem darker and more saturation but I cannot be 100% sure... ?
Keep in mind that not all the Netflix content is in hdr only the shows original from Netflix and only some of them.
Hope it works for you and let me know if you see the HDR improvement, specially in the PRO device because of the AMOLED.
I have mate 10 pro bla-l29... it is normal dual sim that is sold in europe. Bla-a09 is us version only. It is so ****ed up that they dont support all versions who comes up with such an idea. I kinda feel discriminated.
My phone is not rooted so now i am stuck watching sd on a 800 Dollar phone thanks

Yes man I know how you feel, thats why Ive been investigating untill i found how to fix this problem, But yeah you need Root for it, If I buy a phone super expensive is because i want the best feature, it very sad how these companies work.
I think the BLA-L09 is european and the BLA-L29 is like more international. So one would expect that the international version is what should be supported and not the euroean. Anyway, It´s not only huawei fault, its also netflix´s, why all these restricctons? Every phone with at least a 720p screen and google widevine drm support should be able to get HD support. All these exclusivities netflix is doing with some phones is very discriminatory.
Anyway, if you really consume a lot of netflix, i would recommend you to root and get HD support for your phone.

Really, but that´s only for the PRO, isn´t it?
It´s shocking that a 2k phone like mate 10 doesnt support HD oficially.
In their website only these models have support:

I don't wanna be that guy, but people need to stop saying 2k display... 2k is 2000. It makes absolutely no sense to say that.
2k resolution is a slightly larger fullhd cinematic movie recording format (just like 4k compared to Ultra HD)
2k is like 2048x1080 so if one of these phones has close to 2k screen it is the fullhd+ mate10pro.
Saying 2k is insulting your device.
No offence meant lol

Hahah don't worry, I say 2k because everyone one else knows it as that, few knows it as QHD. I normally like to call it just 1440p like 1080p, 720p as that's a more precise term...

The next Netflix update or the next update from Huawei? I have a BLA-AL00 but sadly as of today still no HD or HDR on Netflix yet
Thank you. It works for me (ALP-L29).
Anyone can make this as Magisk module? Thanks in advance.
Anyone figure out why the Mate 10 has been purposefully disabled or not supported for HDR playback? I want to know what dumb ****s are responsible for this.

Netflix could add any phone they want to support HD.
Huawei Mate 10 Pro (BLA-L09)
Netflix doesn't care for us... Still no HD support!
I just contacted with netflix support and their reply was to change my phone or watch on different device!
That's very sad.
Any other solution?
Thanks

3D Scanner App from Note 10+ - WORKS!

So on apkmirror (not sure if I can post direct links there or not) you can search for Samsung 3D Scanner and install it. Then go to the Google Play Store and install QuickShortcutMaker. After installing both apps open QuickShortcutMaker and you will see 3D Scanner, expand it and select the first option, click on it and then click Try. It works on the S10 5G!
I get an error about range scanner not found.

Same thing, which is weird, can you send me some screenshot?
Same problem with 3D scanner not found. Have an ATT 977U. Tried both APKs with the same result.
Here are screenshots of it running on my Verizon S10 5G.
That is awesome!!!!
It don't work for me. In Spain we still in June patch, I hope that when we will have new ota it work

So, there's just some models firmware that's missing something. My brother has a G977N SKT CSC: doesn't work. I have the same but KOO, factory bloatware free and works perfectly!
FYI just updated to ASH1 with August security update and the 3D scanner now works fine with the latest apk
On ATT? Can you point me where to download feom?
Damn, not working for me either.

Since update Netflix has no picture...

Updated 2 days ago. Tried to watch Netflix, it has full sound etc but picture is black.... WTF is that about? Someone on reddit said its a problem with the update and YouTube hd videos have sound and no picture either.
Anyone else have this problem? If it is a common problem, then it's a bit of a disaster on their part.

Yes, HDR videos are not working. Youtube hdr or netflix hdr, sdr videos do work. I don't know why. I didn't reset my phone because I don't watch enough content on it to bother me but it pretty bad bug. I wonder if it fixes on an update soon, don't really know how to contact xiaomi and tell them.

I was talking about HDR ! It's a different thing from SD/HD
SD : Standard Definition
HD : High Definition
SDR : Standard Dynamic Range
HDR : High Dynamic Range
To fix your black screen problem, downgrade your firmware, or use a custom ROM ... or wait for a fix from MIUI.

You got in the phone 2 apps: Services&feedback and Mi comunity.
In the first you describe the issue and it goes to Xiaomi directly.
The second is a big comunity of all devices (forum) and it will go to Xiaomi trough moderators.
I posted feedback in 13 feb and 1 of march, no reply, no nothing.
Really disappointed, why is the feedback app even there if there are no replies 1 month later.

The devices themselves are great, but MIUI is still full of little things here and there that just make you want to replace it. App bugs, that annoying "force close everything constantly on the background" behavior...
This Netflix bug that remains unsolved "forever" now was the last straw that made me just unlock the device and choose LOS instead. Everything is near perfect now.

Can you explain more how you unlocked it? And what is LOS? I'm not great with tech but I'll follow your lead if it fixes Netflix and improves the phone.

If you're not that experienced I'm afraid it may be a bit overwhelming to begin with...
Search for these things in order:
1 - unlock your bootloader (search for unlocking bootloader in Xiaomi devices, there's a waiting period after you apply for it)
2 - flash and boot a custom recovery (go to Rom and Recoveries thread category, go to the TWRP thread and check out instructions
3 - LOS = LineageOS (in my case version 17.1, Android 10 based), again, there's a dedicated thread on it, with instructions on how to flash that.
If you manage to get passed all that, there's 2 more things you can do to complete the experience, related to Camera and Google's SafetyNet so you can install Netflix directly from Play Store as normal.
You will loose your warranty and there's always a chance of hiccups along the way so if you're not very comfortable with all this, the only alternative is to wait for the MIUI update that is slowly rolling out to devices.
Ok, probably too complicated for me and I'll probably make a mess of it. Guess I'll have to wait for update. Thanks anyways

ECG Outside US? Need Directions?

I received my Galaxy watch three yesterday here in Canada. I know officially the new features such as ECG are not available here. I'm doubtful they will be anytime soon. How can I somehow get these features outside of the US on my device? I'm pretty sure it's possible but I'm not sure where to start and look for proper watch three instructions that won't mess up my device. Thank you.

There's some discussion on the subject here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/samsung-galaxy-watch-3/features-available-t4144413
I still can't figure out the proper procedure for the Watch 3. ?
I was using online chat to Samsung support yesterday in the UK and he told me that the ECG and blood pressure monitor would be working when I receive the watch next Friday.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a copy of the message transcript although I guess I could ask for it.
Does anyone know if this is true?

The SM-R840 model? Did you do this as soon as you received it or did you update everything on the watch first?
Does Samsung pay still and all the other apps work fine?
Changing CSC to KOO doesn't enable the missing features?

I installed the BP and ECG option using the "without a PC" option. Worked like a charm. Many thanks!
One question: will there be app updates available for the patched versions?
WIthout PC option worked perfectly on US BTE model.
Without PC method validated for France model, thanks ! Works great.
In addition, is there any method to get SPO2 ? Like through a VPN or something ? Thks

I know the contacts do not sync for us pixel 4 XL owners, but Samsung store person told me that other features need Samsung phone. Hope someone can confirm.
I followed the video and the new SHM app appeared on my watch for a second but when I clicked it, it just closed and then disappeared.
Now, whenever I try to install the "Retailmode" app, I get the message on my phone that the APK was installed, I see the samsung accessory service transferring it to my phone but the the wear app pops up a toast saying "failed to install the app".
I checked under my wear app's list of installed app and it's not there (should it appear there)? Any idea what's going on? This is a US model GW3.

Can you give maybe additional and more specific background infos?
GW3 means what?
BT like SM-R840 or LTE device like SM-R845U?
Firmware Version?
Type this like you would call someone...
Code:
*#1234#
Sam.ung doing funny Running Gags... like this:

So it is not 100 % clear if maybe meanwhile something is going on in US devices...
Usefull to know if Samsung Phone is used to push the TPK...
Best Regards
