Netflix Not Working On Your Android? Use This Trick

Netflix finally launched the long awaited app for Android phones but not everyone was happy with the result. The app only worked on a very small number of phones (five actually), thanks to the different hardware and firmware configurations.

If your android does not support Netflix then cheat

Although Netflix have promised to eventually cover all Android devices, who wants to wait? Well now you can get a workaround to the problem and be watching Netflix Watch Instantly on your Android right now.

The only problem is that doing the following could well trash your phone or need you to reboot. So do at your own risk. First thing you need is a rooted Android phone, you can trick Netflix into thinking your device is approved for streaming video. Find out how to do this for your android at the xda-developers forum.

Once you have done this you need to do some more stuff. Basically you just need to download a file and make a couple of settings then reboot. Full instructions from the Reddit Android community forum.

It is probably the most sensible idea to wait for Netflix to get an app for your phone. But i know some of you just have no patience.
