Good news everyone! Netflix finally has an app for android!
The lovely xda gurus even modified it to stop the device check.

Download the second one (device check disabled), install, login and enjoy!
I have already watched 2 eps of invader zim while on my lunch break!
It is work fine on my p509 w/CM7, so hopefully it will work with all optimus one versions.

Thanks! This works great for me. I tried out a few different programs and everything seems to be working.
What kind of bandwidth does Netflix use on a mobile device? When I stream music I use about 60-70 MB/hour. I am wondering if this is something I can use outside my home or just when I have access to wifi.
Thanks.

installs fine, stream starts, but has the "chipmunk" audio issue (playback twice fast), as well as the green bar at the top issue. (P509, rom void#echo, with hwacc.)

Yeah.. some people have had this issue across different models of phone.
Personally, on CM7 from mik, it works fine for me. I wonder if it 2x on froyo and not gingerbread.
So far as bandwidth taken, I don't know yet. I have only done it on wifi so I haven't been paying much attention.

Netflix now streaming on my atrix, not perfect color though...

I installed the updated Netflix app released today and now I'm able to stream movies, the color is off a little though.
Here is the link to apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14182239&postcount=1466

i see what you mean..i have this green bar going across the screen in the bottom. colors aren't that great..but eh. i can deal with this for now.
watching Mortal Kombat..

Tried austin powers, plays very smoothly but with strange colors
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App

it's the video decoding due to our phones, probably because of the tegra. this has been known since the netflix app was first released (FYI it's been working on our phones since then, the APK was posted in the apps forum)

Still a pretty awesome step in the right direction.

Doesn't android have a graphics layer that's standard across releases that developers can code to instead of hardware specific? Greenbar is pretty annoying.

It does, although this is a video decoder issue.

Optimus V netflix
Im having the same problem on my optimus v and ive tried both the htc and samsung settings, i was wondering if theres a different model entered in the build.prop it would help the color distortion.

[V2 Added!Also Read the last page!Need help guys! :D]Asphalt 7 graphics patch!

This project will be halted due to studies.I hope you understand.
Anyone intrested in continuing this pm me.
Intro:
Hey guys...
As you know you can now get asphalt 7 for free os samsung apps(yay! ) but when i downloaded the graphics were pretty bad for my standards...
Anyway i decided to look into in and i messed a bit with the games files...
The results i got were sweet!
Features:
Now the game has:
1)anti aliasing enabled
2)the car and enviroment looks much better and the biggest plus
3)it it runs 60 fps most of the time!! (i need confirmation about this,although it's much smoother!)
4)POTENTIALY decrease battery drain due to less workload for the gpu with the new settings...
I've played 20 minutes and only 5% is gone!(using lh3 ics and siyah 1.5.2 with undervolted and overclocked cpu+gpu (1600mhz cpu,533mhz gpu)
New in V2!
Fully blown out graphics!
All details maxed out!
-Enabled High quality car shader
-Lod back to highest value
-Gamma luminance enabled
-Dynamic reflection optimized
-Car reflection in garage enabled
This looks ULTRA SWEET!
Instructions are the same for sammy version,for paid version i need help!
Installation:
Download the attached file,extract it and and paste it in
sdcard/Android/data/com.gameloft.android.SAMSUNG.GloftA7SS/files
Looks like it won't work with the paid version of asphalt 7!
Although you can download the sammy one for free if you want.
Update:There's WIP!When we figure it out full instructions will be given!
Update!Full credits goes to tolis626!
Great guy!

Working on paid version from Google play store, simply copied file to computer, renamed to .tar.
Opened the file in winrar and without zipping simply drag and dropped the new config in /data/DeviceConfig.
Then simply renamed .tar to .obb and copied back onto SGS3.
Initial play seems okay, but im at work so will give full report later.
No lag @ 1.6Ghz/700mhz GPU.

Final Notes
1)This will work 100% and DOES NOT HAVE ANY RISK(s)...
If run into any problem,just delete the file and the game will re-download the previous one in seconds!
2)I'm not sure if the ones that bought it have the game installed in that directory!
If you do,you're most likely in luck fellas!
If you don't,i can't do anything sorry....
3)Seems like it doesn't work on jellybean...:/
Sorry guys,i'm using LH3 ics rom...it should have theoreticaly worked with jelly bean....anyway,try it you may be lucky!
There's no risk..
4)Do you think we should spread the word??
Press submit thread as news tip so we can give help to more users! ​

MAJOR UPDATE!!!
Looks like i almost have the "universal" version ready!
I want ANYONE to post me their device's original DeviceConfig.xml and tell me from which device is this file!
When you post i'll have the version ready for that device,i found the issue that caused the download 1mb update and made the file working!
But in order to fix it,i'll need your ORIGINAL file!
By the way i also need an xml of the paid S3 version so i can make this work also.
Thank you guys.
EDIT:Added Galaxy S3 version V2 with even better graphics while maintaining great performance.
I need feedback on this one!
For now it only works on sammy version but as soon as someone with the paid version posts me his xml i'll make it work for the paid one as well...
P.S. The universal version will be based on the V2 not on the old one,don't worry...

For anyone else wondering how/where can you get the game for free the link is right here!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1872844
P.S.
1)I've made some screenshots but there's not much difference there!you'll notice the difference when you play,not in static images...
2)This WILL NOT WORK ON OTHER DEVICES...yet!
I you want it to ask me and i'll try to make it work for that device....
(and you can be a tester... )
I'll start a universal version soon so stay tuned!
3)I am not responsible for anything that happens if you mess up,delete data,cause a nuclear war,or have kittens assault you and anything else!
Happy Gaming everyone!

Yeah, I can't seem to find that folder for my game purchased from Play Store.

I downloaded it from Sam. App Store, also did not find the folder whereas there is one under:
/sdcard/gameloft/games/GloftA7SS
over there you can find the DeviceConfig.xml
will test it

maybe try to search for "gameloft" or "A7" on your sdcard with your file explorer (Root Explorer at least has this option), should give you all folders & files with gameloft or A7 in it. Maybe that helps to find it
--edit: or search directly for the DeviceConfig.xml

Hey thanks for the file, I was looking that file and I find it funny that they leave in the iPhone and iPad information in there.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium HD app

No MSAA enabled on mine...

If you buy the game from the playstore, all the data is stored in the following location: sdcard/android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM. There is no ".../files/" folder.
All the data is capsulated into a file, main.100.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb, that has 1.4gb.
I copied the config file but the game graphics are the same. I guess that you need to put the config file into the 1.4gb file .
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/155/screenshot2012090708055.png/
Update: I unzipped the obb file replaced the config file and zipped again the files(i zipped all the files into a .tar file, and after that i changed the extension name). After that i replaced the current file withe the official .obb, but the game fails to run. :|

Hulu Plus is Working

Today's update must have added support. It didn't work previously on my N8000 so I'm guessing it didn't work on any Note. Apologies if this isn't news.

That is pretty odd, but not being rooted, you shouldn't have any issues with the unmodded hulu app in the first place. It is still weird that it doesn't want to install though, have you tried restarting your device?

The stock Hulu app plays ads just fine, but it won't play the actual video. I've tried everything I could think of, including re-starting numerous times.

Stock version was updated tonight and now works. I too was just able to view the ads only, but now everything works! Yay!!

Hey
So I kinda didn't like the new Play Store look. Too much green, red and orange within the respective sections. So, thanks to forum member jugg1es' encouragement, I themes the whole thing so that it has a Holo Light look. I've not themed the arrows, check marks etc to maintain the subtle difference between apps, books, magazines, movies and music.
