Does anyone know if the new Android Netfix app will ever work on the A7? I installed it on my EVO and it is sweet! But the screen is TINY!

I don't count on it ever working,but I put playon on mine and it works pretty much perfectly.You can install it on your computer then you are basically steaming but you have Netflix, Hulu CBS,tbs comedycentral,syfy and the list goes on.You can try it out for a couple of weeks for free and then if you want to keep it they are pretty cheap and have several ways to subscribe,from monthly,yearly and even a one time payment for a lifetime subsciption.Anyway I got tired of waiting and got it on sell and haven't looked back.It is more than you can imagine and you can use it on PS3.Xbox,Wii,and several blueray players.Pretty much anything that is DLNP capable .
Anyway didn't mean to ramble but hope this helps.
There is a netflix app available without the checks and already signed. Most have said they can get it running in a gingerbread rom. I haven't been able to get it working on the A7's rom however.

I know that they won't allow it to run on devices that are rooted, but I think if you search the forums you'll find a modded apk that should run.

Thanks,
I had installed the cracked version on my Evo4G and Evo3D, and it installed on the A7 but would never work.
I always ignored the "there is a newer version available" message until I read your post. Works like a charm now... Resolution seems like it sucks a little, but that may have just been the movie I tested with.
Just down loaded from Market. Install and logged in. It works great!!!
Works great!!!

I updated to this version and it works well. I've noticed that the resolution starts out bad but rapidly improves. I am really happy with this tablet now. It pretty much does most things I want it to do. Only thing left for me to conquer is moving apps 2 external SD.
Thanks to everyone that has helped develop the mode!
Just wanted to make sure everyone is aware that you can adjust the quality of your stream through netflix. Just head to your account page on netflix.com and towards the bottom is a link to adjust the quality.
I've be seaching for the Elocitymod 1.42a, but haven't been able to find it. Can anyone tell me where I can get it or send a link? Thanks

On my completly factory A7+ I got netflix working only through an account on amazon
Still can't find way for un modified A7+ to get HBO GO
more to point. I cant get netflix audio (or any audio) through hdmi on my ~5 yr old Insignia HD TV, is it possible adjusting stream quality will solve the no audio? I tried it on a new 55" Toshiba and audio/video work perfect (and wow, a 3' tall angry bird is cool)
This has been answerd in old threads as, "some tv's audio works, some don't"
Any new fixes?
Anyway to put screen to sleep while still streaming through hdmi?
I just wanted to let everyone in the US know that NBC has just updated their app so we can watch the Olympics on our Nexus 7's!!

Thanks.....looks fantastic on the N7!!!!
So much win!!
Awesome, good to hear. I had to sideload them the other day.
The interesting thing was what I used to install it in the first place (before using TB to backup and send) ----- an HP TouchPad. I mean really....a device which never officially had Android had support for the app, but the N7 didn't. LOL
Thanks, but I don't have a tv provider llol..

Nor do I. They have a free 4 hour trial. Not sure if you have to use it all in one sitting or lose it, but worth a shot. If you root, you can install stock browser and flash, then stream stuff from front row sports.
holy butt, the registration process with my 4th tier cable company was one of the hardest things I have ever done. What a pain in the....
It was awesome watching soccer on this thing yesterday!!
Man I just hope they keep up on the bandwidth when the heat is on during some big events because it looked AWESOME yesterday.
Woot. That was easy. The games are about 1 min behind but that's ok

Here is a sample video sorry for the horrible quality. Looking into why my camera didn't auto focus on the screen.

I'm stock and rooted as well. What could it be? Turned off forced landscape in both Nova and system settings everything to auto and still nothing...
Running JR6 ROM from Paul and just installed today. Everything works as it should on my end. I did install the tablet UI over the JR6 rom and I haven't touched the dpi.
App runs fine, but force closes alot. Happens on my galaxy nexus as well, so it may be a crappy app.
Works fine on my rooted AOKP Gnex at stock 320 DPI, but still just a blank screen on my rooted stock rom N7 @ stock 213 dpi. Tried uninstall reinstall and still just nothingness. Baffling.
They updated the App today .. update if you haven't already..

I'm looking to possibly get a Galaxy Note 8.0 down the road for a custom dash install for my car. I was wondering if there was a possibility to get the Xposed Multiwindow Mod from the Galaxy Note II to work on this device.

It works fine. Please do not comment if you are unsure of things, because you can start a huge row for developers.
I am running it right now on my tablet, and it runs great.
It works perfectly for me!

Really? Can you run Spotify and navigation side by side?
I was able to get it working also.
Folks should be aware that it is very difficult to use the CWR tools to get rid of it again at this time, though you can do it manually via ADB.
Also that Odin recovery does not wipe out installed apps, which I did not know and am happy about. (I tried changing dpi using a different one of the Xposed modules; it did not work and my phone bootlooped. I had the uninstall around, but was not able to install it via CWR.)
The multiwindow one works nicely. There's also an app in the play store that works for enabling multiwindow view for many more apps.
I don't use Spotify so I don't know about that one in particular.
Out of curiosity what is the diff with this and multi window mgr. Be gentle i am using mwm but int in the diff.

I don't know, MWM just didn't Work for me.

It's very similar to multiwindow manager, honestly. MWM is a little funky in that the app itself doesn't know that the Note 8 exists yet. I think I told it I was using a note II and it let me add whatever I wanted to multiwindow mode.
The one thing I have not tested yet with the new way of adding multiwindow functionality to the device is the camera. With MWM running, if multiwindow mode is enabled the camera locks up the device.

I haven't tried the camera yet while using it but I don't take many pix with a tablet. For MWM to work you have to disable the patch it mentions when you launch it first. Other than that it works with all my apps. I also love multi touch gestures app.Update just used the camera with no issues. First time I tried it. Pretty good image for a tablet.
I'm using the Xposed method and while the camera doesn't fc there is apparently no shutter button. In fact I'm typing this from one window with the camera in the other.
Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk 2
And I have to admit that this is far from my go-to camera - but occasionally I'll launch the app accidentally or on purpose, and it'd be nice to not have it hink out on me.
The fix for me has been to disable multiwindow mode in the system preference, and that may well work for the Xposed mwindow modification as well.
Xposed is a framework with developer interest from the companion Samsung devices and it may allow for other things to arrive fairly quickly on the device, before a full rom is ready.
This is awesome; I'm definitely going to be getting one of these for my dash install later this year
I was tired of the restricted list of apps compatible with multiwindow..... Until today....
Just tried MW Commander on my S6,
Works really well. It adds the ability to put any app into multiwindow state. And show up in multiwindow selection.
Been looking for an app that's works properly on the s6 for a while, so I thought I would share here.
This is a paid app, there might be ones out there that work that are free but I haven't found one that works well on our device and I think its worth the £1
I'm not affiliated with this app, just wanted to share as I couldn't find any posts about it in this forum.
Hope this helps someone to enjoy multiwindow on their device a bit more
P.S r00t is required
thanks checking it out
Good find - though I can't get it to work with some apps (Tapatalk for instance), but it does work on most of them

Im having problems with it. In messages the keyboard after i enable the multiwindow manager for some apps like calc and a few more. The keyboard stars working a lil weird, for example when im in the messages app and have the keyboard open and I press the emoji button it doesn't change. and when i Press the add a file button it appers like the keyboard its not hiding for this to happen. Do you experiencing the same issues? Also if i have the keyboard opened and press the power button and turn it on the keyboard stays in the lockscreen and doesn't hide.

I'm afraid I Havant experienced any of these symptoms. Which ROM are you using? Or are you stock? I would email the developer, as he will have a good insight into the problems you are having.
Sorry I can't help much more as I can not reproduce the problems
Cheers

Im using the stock ROM just rooted. I have restore twice to see what is the problem and in both do the same thing after i enable a few multiwindow apps.
When playing a song in Spotify and tapping on the 3 dots in the upper right corner, the screen dims a little bit and Spotify freezes. No probs like this with Mi Mix 2s and Redmi Note 4. Erased app data, uninstalled, re-installed - no changes.
Any ideas?
Same problem for me
Same here. Seems like this problem has been around for a while.

I have installed the Spotify desktop app on Windows 10 and I am doing all the management from there!
By the way, I have the Chinese rom (for now). Does it happen on the global rom also?

Just to let you know. I signed up for a Spotify Beta account, hoping the bug is fixed in the beta - but no...same problem
Hello,
Theres a workaround, tap the song/album you want, then go to the playlist and select "add song", then swipe right until you get the recently played pannel and add song/album to playlist....

Confirm I had the same problem with my unit, that is until I returned it due to the touchscreen issue mentioned in another thread.
Same issue, already posted on Spotify's forums and they didn't even acknowledged it.
Lots of people complaining yet the can't or refuse to do something about it...
Damn, just got the phone yesterday and I am having the same issue and was hoping someone may have found a solution. I wonder if it's to do with the new processor in this phone? I saw someone in a Spotify support forum (not an R8NPro user) saying they turned on OpenGL Rendering (although not sure how or where?) and that fixed it for them. Spotify presents one of my main use cases for the phone so this sucks. Anyone tried using an older version of the app?
On a related note (no pun intended!), I have always rooted my phones just so I could use Viper4Audio to eek out a better sound. I am using Bluetooth as my primary connection. Has anyone done any side by sides in terms of audio quality? If I don;t have to root then I won't as I think I read of some possible issues at present with this phone?
Thanks for any help!
Just got a new system update on my RN8Pro. Has anyone tried the current version of Spotify after this update to see if it works? I am using a very old version of the app which is working (albeit less featured) so am loathe to have to download all my playlists again to try it
Works for me now with MIUI 11. But I'm also using Spotify Beta and there was an update too. So I'm not sure why it's working again. Please try out folks
Works fine for me. Miui 11 and latest Spotify stable release.
Same problem for me
Miui 11 update fix many issues, like the Spotify bug !
