Hello,
it seems that there is a problem with the Netflix app on MTCD units.
Android 5.1 Quad Core - apparently you can install and enter the app, but can't play any video materials.
Android 6.0.1 Octa Core - unable to install the app via Play Store (can't even see the Play Store entry for Netflix); sideloading the application from APKMirror.com gives the error that the app is not compatible with the device. Netflix then redirects to their own site which mentions downloading another apk straight from them - this one just bugs out 4-5 times before stopping completely.
This happens both in factory ROMs and the @Malaysk ROM.
My theory is that I would need to somehow make Netflix think that it is being installed on a smartphone, like a Samsung Galaxy or a Sony Xperia.
How can I go about posing the headunit as a phone? Is such a thing even possible?
I tried sideloading the Netflix app on my Pumpkin RQ0278E yesterday and it worked like a champ, it has Marshmallow btw.
..
How?
Brickbeats... Where did you side load it from? I can't get it to work on my pumpkin... Android 6.0.1
It's working fine for me on 6.0.1, I had to install the apk they point you to after you install the app from google play.
Same as NaviPR.. Hope someone can help..

I have a px3 7.1.2 - 2gb - mtcd 2.54a. I downloaded the netflix app direktly from the netflix website and it work like a charm. The only problem is when you are looking a film and you Change the volume, the film paused and you have to push the play button to continue.
in my case, i only hear audio but i can see only a black screen, if i press timebar, i see one freezed frame for one second, after only sound and black screen, apk downloaded from netflix official! before downgrade 2.58_1 to 2.54a it's work perfectly

I have a Uconnect Head unit in my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee (It's actually the UAQ unit (2018 model)) and I have tried to play Netflix content to the head unit via Android Auto (Newest version in Play store) and AA Unlock and AA Mirror. I have used two devices which I describe below, but can not get video overlay to work. When I start Netflix on those two devices below, I see the menu, I can login, I see movie and tv selections, but when I start to play the movie, all I can see are the controls for the video. (volume, progression slider, etc.) but NOT the video itself. I can hear it. It shows fine on the two devices, but when linked via USB cable to Android Auto on the head unit. NO video. Amazon Prime video works fine, as does the DirecTV app, my plex app and others.
My two devices are:
A Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7" (Sprint version) running Lineage OS 14.1, unlocked and rooted. I am running AA Unlock, AA Mirror and the current version on Android Auto from the play store.
A Samsung Galaxy S5 (Verizon UNLOCKED) with Lollipop (Android 5.0) and rooted. I am running AA Unlock, AA Mirror and the current version on Android Auto from the play store.
BOTH will not play Netflix videos when connected. I can see the movie playing on both screens of the devices, but not to the head unit. I have tried different versions of Netflix (both from the play store and from direct downloads of the .apk). Nothing seems to work.
Some say that the Custom ROM is the problem, some say that the devices being rooted is the problem, but neither works.
Ideas?
Great site....long time viewer, first time poster.

So not an MTCD unit, you have an Android Auto unit? If so, you might best be asking in Android Auto Forums.
Just go to APKMirror and download a version that is for Andriod 4.0+, not Android 5.0+ that's where they have all the errors with our devices which are somewhat rooted.

Hi,
I want to pair my samsung gear 360 with gear s3 frontier, does anyone know any app or solution? Theme is an app to remotely control only gopro....
I would also like to know if there is an app to link Gear 360 to Gear S3.
Exactly!
Same boat - there should be a remote available to install on Gear S3
I had published a remote controller app for Ricoh's Theta S camera (360 camera from Ricoh)
When I purchased the new Gear 360, I wanted to write an app for it as well. But it does not have the support for OSC aPI.
I don't know why.
First gen. Gear 360 has this API support...

I wonder if the app for the 2016 would pair with the 2017?
I'd be willing to try it, where can I find the app?
Was there any luck with finding that app?
I had created the app for this purpose. Just forgot to inform here.

There is no camera support in android wear.
Sound works particularly. Playing music on some players work. Notfication sound works but there is no way to speak on watch while on call.
Android wear 1.5 is the latest version we have.
Hi there,
I've seen there is a camera remote app preinstalled on the watch if you use a Samsung phone. But when using my OnePlus 7t pro the app isn't there.
My old Oppo watch had a remote shutter using a android wear app from Google but I can't find it. Google camera from the Playstore doesn't work.

Try Wrist Camera in the Play Store
Here's the deal. The second out of the box brand new Poco X4 pro 5g with EEA stock ROM is in my hands atm, there is a serious problem with this ROM. It's the newest MIUI 13.0.8 stable for EEA region. VR is simply broken, the Chrome browser VR functionality simply doesn't work (no video source found error, upon trying to play a video) as well as Google Cardboard app seems to be not connected in any way to other apps that could launch it, despite it being installed. VR services are installed too. Now I'm guessing it's the ROM in particular, because the Poco X3 Global ROM also based on Android 11 runs this without a problem.
Activity Launcher app found all VR items in the system but all are locked out and launching any of them results in a Java applet error. Launching "VR settings" returns an error about "lacking features to launch".
Any idea what am I facing? Vr videos blocked because of underpowered Snapdragon 695? I doubt it, as my old Redmi Note 7 pro runs VR without issues. Any help would be appreciated. I can provide more info if needed. Ask away.
I just wanted to let you know I am facing identical problems. My Poco X4 Pro 5g has the same issue with VR. I found that Youtube VR does work, but in other places I just get a fully black video with audio playing (head tracking, the on screen menu and controls do work). After installing the Google Cardboard apps still indicate I should install google cardboard.
I had this right out of the box, just installing all available updates.
I've tried changing the screen refresh rate, switching between "When device is in VR" reduce blur to reduce flicker and from buttons to the full screen display. None of it works.
I'm on MIUI Global 13.0.9 Stable 13.0.9.0(RKCEUXM)
Android: 11 RKQ1.211001.001

Hi, I observed same issues. With chrome I've got the no video source error and with firefox it was the black video with only playing audio. All other controls worked fine.
What I tried so far:
- installed google ar services(I have read somewere that they are necessary for WebXR) but am not sure that they are running.
- changed refresh rates from 60 to 120hz.
- installed more browsers, but most of them have the "no video source" issue.
- Enabled VR Helper in Settings
- Reinstalled Google VR Services and Cardboard App
I compared with another phone were it is working with same chrome version. I tried to reproduce it but and uninstalled cardboard and also vr services. With uninstalled cardboard it still keeps going. With uninstalled VR Services it shows the 360 view of the video but as I try to switch to vr mode chrome ask me to install VR Services.
Another thing is also strange. The old phone asked me for permission to use VR services but the new one does not. (Permission is enabled as "ask for it")
But, it feels like that there is something missing. Any, library or connection to cardboard api.
I have a Redmi 11 pro 5g and with no custom roms or similar currently.
