Got this from droidlife and I havent tested it yet since im on 2.3 but wanted the fam to have a crack at it and see if it works or not
http://www.mediafire.com/?4xwncz7doz475tj
We just threw up a post about the latest Netflix update which brought support to the original DROID, but what we failed to originally realize is that the update removed the device check which means in theory, that it should be able to work on all phones. Well, guess what? I loaded it up on my DROIDX2 (which is “not” supported) and it installed just fine and is now streaming a video. I’m loading it up on other devices too, but wanted to make sure you all knew. Feel free to grab it below and install – let us know how it goes!
*Note – this is not a hacked version. This is 100% the market version.
Update: Works on Thunderbolt (rooted 2.3), DROIDX2, DROIDX (2.3), and Xperia PLAY.
Update 2: No XOOM support though.
Update 3: Looks like it’s pretty hit or miss. Definitely sounding like it’s not working on stock Thunderbolt which is a damn shame.
Cheers Brandon!

It didn't work for me... It goes to login screen and then goes back to home screen when trying to login dang I may have to jump to EE03 finally..
Doubt that will work or anything for that matter because they have been trying to get it to work on many devices on the main Android forums of XDA and not many people are having luck.
Seems like we'll just be waiting for now until Netflix releases something. They did just add...
LG Revolution, Motorola Droid and Casio G'zOne Commando
But no Epic 4G yet
For snapdragon 2.2 devices
Did the news get around about a guy named butcher pete?

gotta love verizon huh lol
It is not the epic 4g, it is hummingbird based devices on the 2.2 kernal. Our cm7 isnt built on gingerbread source. It is still on 2.2.1 source. The reason that you need 2.3 because it has better hardware support for the hummingbird processor due to the fist flagship device to have a hummingbird was on 2.3 release not 2.2 release. Also, our software DRM that Samsung gave us in our 2.1 and 2.2 based ROMs sucks/is unable to support Netflix web streaming.

So what would happen if we took the DRM from the leaked gingerbread rom and placed it into a froyo rom? Do you think netflix would work. I am took afraid of trying this out myself for fear of reflashing my entire rom and reconfiguring all my setting again.

Thanks for the info.....was'nt aware that 2.3 was built around the Hummingbird processor. Damn....that should really give our Epic's a kick in the ass once it's official. Combined with some overclocked kernels and EXT4, maybe then we will see this phone's full potential.......it only took 8 monthes

netflix on syndicate from epic
i am currently running the syndicate rom on my epic 4g. i downloaded the app that meter 5 posted and updated it and it now works, maybe it might work on the stock rom. I know it is reported to work on the gingerbread rom but apparently it works on mine as well.
Just downloaded Netflix today from the Android Market. Running Bonsai 4.1.1 and I'm already streaming! Woot!

i was just curious if the hero was getting the 2.2 update? doesnt look like much of a difference but im still curious
It is highly unlikely that we will see an official release of 2.2, but the devs here on this forum will try to work on it. darchstar has already stated that when the 2.2 source is released and implemented into Cyanogen mod, he will port it over.
While it might seem that different, there are a lot of major changes, especially in speeed. The Market has an autoupdate feature in 2.2, Apps2SD is built in (but, I assume, it's not based on our same Apps2SD. Just the same function), and JIT is fully functioning and working as it should. The Nexus One running 2.2 runs almost 8 times faster than it does with 2.1, or so I've been told.
lol, let the 2.2 threads begin....
We barely got 2.1.
Im sure after the devs get froyo working, sprint will steal it, mod it slightly, leak it back out to the devs for them to tweak, and us to test, then sprint will release it officially about 6 months later, blaming htc for the hold up and it will still have tons of problems. Then the devs will figure out how to root it and sprint/htc will put out a update almost the next day to patch the root exploit.
Anyone else have a idea?

So would you say it will be an ......"extreme" improvement (har har har oh not funny). Yeah your right we'll probably never see an official release. Unlike tmobile who have said or rumored to say all their phones that can get it will.

Nope. I would, however, say it would be pretty Xtreme
I would love to see 2.2 on my Hero. Especially because that would mean I could go into Sprint and show them that my Hero is running faster than their EVO
thanks for the feedback guys. yeah i was watching videos of the nexus one running 2.2 and that thing was blazing fast!!!
i sent HTC a message last night asking if the hero was going to get the 2.2 release and this was there response...
(Hello Chris, Thank you for taking the time to contact HTC America Technical Support about your device. Before releasing a ROM update we have to be sure that the software is going to work properly on your hardware and on your carrier’s network. This testing does take some time but will result in an update that is optimized to work on your device and on your carrier’s network. While we want to release software as soon as we can we will only do so once the software has passed our quality standards. At this time we do not have any information about an update for your device. When the update is released it will be announced on HTC.com.)
So basically "We don't feel like it"

Thats the Gingerbread Kernel Source for Nexus S not full Gingerbread source... which is expected to come out a day after Nexus S release so friday supposedly it will be on ASOP Twitter of Android developer Jean-Baptiste Queru via http://androidcommunity.com/android-2-3-gingerbread-to-appear-in-aosp-after-nexus-s-day-20101215/
I'm actually really suprised that Zenulator hasn't stopped by yet with the sdk image booting.
I'll maybe have a look later today.. I'll have to find and charge up my vogue.

good to see your still around on here how is the Galaxy S life (assuming thats what you still have)
I don't do any developing for the galaxy. It's a great phone and since my provider released an official 2.2 it's even better.
To be honest, the galaxys community is not nearly as close to how amazing the vogue community is. You guys are the bomb!

I would but my vogue is in my son's hands an hour away. Still running 2.2
Also there shouldn't be any problems running Gingerbread on the vogue/kaiser it's running fine on the Hero minus some needed hardware libraries which can now be fixed thanks to google releasing the source.

I have not even looked at it yet but for all I know, it may be HDPI only. That would be dumb of Google. I don't think many MDPI devices (if any) will get the official upgrade to 2.4 or 3.0, but rooters are like half or more of the user base right? I think google should be on the rooters side when it comes to this kind of thing. The G1 has gingerbread right? And that was not even supposed to get 2.0.

It probably has more to do with how much RAM this thing uses. I was reading reports of the guys in the original thread and they were saying it was sucking down 24-28mb of RAM, the Eris couldn't handle that drain, hell it pretty much takes being OC'd to handle the 3D gallery on these phones.
Android 2.3 any info?
Does anybody know if Samsung will release in near feature Android 2.3 Gingerbread for our lovely Galaxy S. I was trying this morning to search also on internet but without lucky.... So if somebody have any info, please share with us

Any news about the 2.3 update?
i hope a quick update to 2.3
i just read on some other site that they are skipping over to 2.4 now. which will also be called gingerbread, but have dual core support and other things. so hopefully we will get 2.4. it would be nice if 2.4 also had hardware acceleration, but i wouldnt hold my breath.
I'm so happy I got the i9000 and not a Fascinate, Epic, Vibrant, or Captivate. They are still waiting for Froyo!

I've done some reading on this and it appears the Netflix app currently only supports devices with the Snapdragon processor What about the Hummingbird crowd? Damn you Netflix
Once gingerbread is released it should work. It currently runs on the Nexus S which is a hummingbird proc and it runs on my epic with the leaked gingerbread build.
Thanks daafisch, forgot to mention that. Don't know if Gingerbread will ever be officially released by Sprint/Samsung though.....it took them forever to release Froyo Gotta have my custom oc kernels
Not holding my breath on gingerbread, by the time it's out I'll be eligible for upgrade in Oct.

Kinda figured it would'nt work on SRF 1.1.1, since it's 2.2 Rumors and sources can be very unreliable as in the rumors about Froyo that carried on for 6 monthes! By the time Sprint makes Gingerbread official, I'll have a duel-core phone
