You have tried the Android TV version ( which as white background in the logo ).

Oh boy looks like you have been short-changed already.

From this video, I see that they are installing the mobile phone version of netflix onto the TV, not the Android TV version ! That version of netflix, can be installed in almost all devices. All the best !



I guess this is where a Widevide L1 and Netflix certified TV box can rescue you !

It seems that the solution does not work... I tried. I faced the same issue as in youtube comment. netflix app can run... but the movie wont play - either you get "your acct cant be used on this device" or "device not compatible"

Please post your link to the apk.  The black background netflix apk should be installable on most devices.

I might have a possible answer to your problem, but you must do some tests as I suggested first.

The apk is not creating an ICON because in the manifest.xml (inside the apk) does not allow it to be started by a leanback launcher ( an Android TV launcher ). So the apk needs to be modified.
