This is a Netflix apk to force HD (1080p) on Widevine L3 devices. So basically any phone with a custom rom, where you can only watch SD netflix. Your device has to support L1 though (the v30 supports it). It's an old version (4.1) so the gui is not the best but it's the only one that works (with newer versions the hack is not possible for technical issues).
The original work is by Jonas-coded here:
https://github.com/jonas-coded/netflix_hd_patch
I've only added a string of code to make it work on full screen 18:9 for our v30. Since Netflix wasn't 18:9 at the time.

Hey bro! Would you mind telling me in which step you changed the code to get it to 18:9? I have a Mi9T that is 19.5:9 and i would like to change it like you did.
I was able to create an HD ready apk using this (https://github.com/longseespace/netflix_patch) but i really wanted that 19.5:9 goodness (ur 18:9 version is almost perfect, but, if possible i want the 19.5:9)

Can you update this? İts so outdated yknow
The App Needs to be UPDATED and Needs Some MODIFICATIONS
I used both HD and UHD Apk on My Widevine l3 device and Both works fine with HD and UHD Quality. But both these apk's needs to be updated and Specially needs Some modifications. I usually encounter so many problems with this Apk version Netflix. Sometimes the audio stops and The graphic changes. And there's no option to select the download location to SD card or internal Storage. Even after downloading videos offline, some videos doesn't play,Says "Playback Failed" which is really disappointing!. After all i can only appreciate the quality Of this APK not anything else. Pls update this apk and fix those issues so that it would be easy for us to USE.
Finally an apk that works! I can finally stream in HD!

Some apps/games are not supporting 1920x1080 resolution yet...until they update their apps/games there's not much to do
It does work on my friend's OPPO Find 5 which also has a 1080p resolution.
Hi! NFSMW is fully compatible with HTC One. What's not compatible is playstore itself. You can try installing this modded playstore so you can download and install it.

You only see the description, the mini map, the speed and the menues.
But you dont see any car or landscape.
It is only black.
you can drive and play with watching at the mini map.
Also you can win. lol

Ok so I just noticed NFSMW on the play store says it now has support for HTC one. Not sure if it was there before or not Downloading now and will report back.
Well downloaded from playstore and plays flawlessly. Graphics are superb and very smooth. Don't know if this is new or not but thought it was worth sharing.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
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.

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.

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...

Thank you. It works for me (ALP-L29).

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.

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?

After read the problem about Netflix and pocophone , i just notice that i do have the same problem with my Phone! Only SD for Mate 10 PRO.
I found this over the web:
In response to your question, the HD playback on Netflix is related to the availability of the DRM LiveWine L1 (HD video support in DRM platforms as Netflix). As a representative of the manufacturer, I can inform you that all devices running on EMUI 8.0 or higher (Mate 10 Pro included) are scheduled to receive it at some point via a system update.
Well i Just check with a Tool and my mate 10 pro got L1 security enable but somehow only US single sim version Works :
Huawei Mate 10 Pro (BLA-A09, NEO-L29)

Actually no it does not, according to Netflix only the BLA-A09 supports Netflix in HD and that's only with the stock ROM. This is straight from Netflix so take it for what it is worth.

Just because the listing shows that it is HD does not mean that it will stream to your device in HD. It said the same thing with my mate 9 but only streamed in SD. According to Netflix the ONLY mate 10 that is certified is the BLA-A09.

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.

Really disappointed, why is the feedback app even there if there are no replies 1 month later.

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
Has anyone tested it and does it work?
I have tested and it does not work. Security hole that LZPlay uses was patched in EMUI 11.
I've found this link on chinese website, they seem to have found a solution to install google play services on it, not sure what they are using, do you guys fair any better in Chinese? screenshots seem legit...

Thank you, it is the same story like with all current chinese How-tos, LZplay does not work after restored from backup.
I've found an App which gives you GMS on the Mate 40 Pro, although its more of a Virtual Machine you run on your Mate 40 Pro so it's not as Snappy like the Phone itself but it works. So if you need to do some Banking or use one of thoose E-Scooter Apps it'll do the Job just right.
Basically you just need to Install the VMOS Pro apk, and boot the Android 7.1 System Enable the Google Services in the Settings, restarting the App and you're good to go.

Notice: Gpay also doesn't work with this Method
Sorry, but VMOS is not really an option. It's like having 2 separate mobile phones...
Yes I have tested and it work, putting up a video on YouTube soon
On my mate 40 Porsche RS

Have you got Chinese version ,isn't it?
Yeah, international versions definitely do not work. I was hoping that after FW update on the Mate 40 pro something would change but there is no change. I am actually fine with MicroG now but still missing just a couple of GMS features.

It does not really improve anything. It could maybe help to recover licenses of Google linked premium apps (not purchased via Google Play Store!).
