Netflix available for Evo 4G

I have the leaked GB 2.3.3 with Sense ROM and streaming isnt working. It starts to load and then the app restarts. I'm pretty bummed about this as I thought I found a new daily driver in this ROM. I did notice that it's working with the new skyraider ROM so I may try that ROM out. Anyone else running this ROM and seeing the same thing?
 
Review: Video quality on 3G is wonderful. This app is a godsend! Next question is how much sleep am I going to lose staying up late watching movies on my Evo !? LOL
 
I also am impressed with video quality over 3G! Wow....

I'd hate it if this isn't available for the 3D from out the starting gate.
 
Liking It so far. Been able to watch a couple shows at work. Does get pixelated sometimes on 3g but works good on wifi so far

CM7 works fine with the Netflix app. I know you have concerns about AOSP ROMs.
 
I flashed back to Sprint Lovers ROM and netflix is working like a charm. I'm bummed that it didn't work in the GB Sense ROM, but I guess that's just the nature of custom ROMs. Some things work and some things don't!
 
Works great on 3g. The irony of this is I have been using my brothers account for yrs for streaming and he cant us it on his OG Droid :D
 
I won't be able to find out til later unless someone can answer this. Will the HDMI out be compatible with the netflix app

Would like to know the answer to this too?

Anyone know if this works out of the box (not using the fullhdmi app)?
 
Oh man, I thought about that last night....why didn't I try it. I get off work in like an hour. Gonna try this and report back here in this post.

UPDATE: The Netflix app DOES NOT work with the out of the box HDMI capabilities.

It DOES work with the FullHDMI app you can get from the market.

Well, color me ticked off. No, this doesn't work. So, I checked out FullHDMI -- downloaded the free version and it worked just fine (of course, portrait only). So, I spent the $4.99 on the full version of FullHDMI. By the time I got it working, and found out if you are not rooted it ONLY supports SVGA (no 720p) I was past my 15 minute window to return the app.

Grrr.....why doesn't this app work without some mirroring technology like FullHDMI (and also, why doesn't FullHDMI work in 720p with the stock kernel)?

EDIT: Yep, definitely my fault -- NOW I see that it says FullHDMI doesn't support 720p without rooting.... :-(

FreshEVO 4.0.0.4 - DOES NOT WORK.

CM7 or Nightlies - WORKS !

Took a ton of tinkering, but yay!

Top it off with HDMwIn full 720/1080i landscape mode. Excellent!!!

Even though he can now...this is still really funny. :-P

This is awesome, but I feel like I will never really be able to take full advantage. It would be basically impossible for me to watch even a show without being plugged in as my phone can't make it through the day on a single charge as is.
 
Is there any fix for FreshEVO?

Which version of CM works? Does CM 7 have 4g working as well?

Thanks

Dont know about FRESH, but I do know that 4G DOES work on CM7.

Yeah, it's a battery hog. I make sure I'm plugged in to some kind of charge when using it.
