Run Netflix on your unsupported Android device

The news that Netflix is now available on a selection of Android devices is of course great, but many devices are not supported currently. Fear not because Reddit has some instructions to get it running on a rooted Android device that is currently in the unsupported list.

“Netflix officially released for 5 devices because those are the ones that the devs tested with. They knew there would be issues with untested devices (fcs, crashes, no video/sound, etc) so they coded the app to refuse to play on anything but the tested 5. All this hack does is circumvents that restriction by making the app think you are on one of the supported ones. There some devices which seem to work fine with the app but were never tested by the devs. Such devices as the nook color, the LG optimus S/V. These work perfectly after this while others still may have problems.”
