NETFLIX FOR ANDROID

Official (UNMODIFIED) .apk file: http://qr.ai/u6f0

~Let us know if it works for you~

There have been many reports of the stock app not working on the V..

There for a modified build had to be made to "mimic" a different phone..
Thus a modified build was made.

HOW TO:
Download the modified build and install & run..
No other modifications to your phone or the .apk are needed

Please report what rom your using if the app works or does not work for you..

~UPDATE~
All modified builds have been removed..
Legit apk now works with no mods needed..
Updated legit Netflix apk
.........
Modified rotation build posted
(change from landscape to portrait)
.........
Posted modified build .apk
-------
Official .apk Link updated


THANKS GOES TO:
Everyone from XDA as well as members here on AndroidCentral..
NOTE: I did not make any of these builds, I'm just sharing the knowledge~

Does it actually stream video on a stock rom? I still have Rodimus, the app installs, lets you log in and browse movies but doesn't stream them, get a device not supported error. I only tried on wifi, no 3g signal here.
 
Netflix is not supported on this device :(
I got that same message, however I'm still able to sign in with my account and stream.
Plus I'm using wifi..

By the way the link isent mine however I may update it soon

Just curious why I can't find it on the market through my phone. I can get to it on my computer, but it gives the "item not supported" error when I hit download.

simple, netflix team is only supporting phones they use at this time (fact)

~UPDATE~
Updated the download link (on the first post) to my Dropbox account with the version that I confirmed working through my V..

Hmm, I am running the same rom as the OP of this thread and have used the uploaded .apk and I am also getting the "Netflix is not supported on this device. Please check the Netflix website for a list of supported devices." :(

First when I opened the Netflix app, it said the device is not supported, so I just clicked ok and it brought me the sign-in which I was able to do. Then when I try and stream it gives me that error again. I am running WiFi at the moment and don't even think it would work on 3G for me so no use in testing using the 3G connection.

I was planning on swapping roms this week anyway so I wiped data and slapped the stock rom back on. Same result, device not supported.
 
Yeah just went through a bunch of my roms on my sdcard and to no avail. The interface is nice, and seems cool as a queue manager for now, except it is a big app even when moved to the sdcard.

Would be cool to see a screenshot from the OP just to see what the stream looks like.
 
is it possible you made changes to build.prop in the past ?
No, I have not made any changes to the .apk in any way..

used "Screenshot IT" to take a screen shot & it keeps crashing my phone while the app is running..
I would love to post a screen shot so any suggestions are welcome~

Record it with a digital camera? Quality won't be the same but it would be nice if you could record going through the movies and streaming them.

I have thought of that however I do not have a cam at all (use the V's for all my shots)..
Ill see if I can borrow one from one of my buds and report back~
