Default JFYI Netflix (update.zip)

Just so you lknow, if you modify your Build.prop to think your espresso. Is a vision, you can flawlessly use the netflix app, streaming and all!

Set your build.prop to this info:

ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.brand=tmobile
ro.product.name=vision
ro.product.device=vision
ro.product.board=vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC

ro.build.description=vision-user 2.2 FRF91 277427 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=tmobile/htc_vision/vision:2.2/FRF91/277427:user/release-keys

Ill upload an update.zip later~~~~~~~~~~~~ADDED THE ZIP!

You should only need to change the build prop to have it show up in market. I just downloaded the apk from the netflix thread and bam! it works. Having trouble uploading otherwise would attach

I just made those changes, was then able to download from the market. Logged into Netflix and working! I changed build.prop back to original and netflix still works... Swype got messed up and had to reinstall, but everything working fine.

Thanx Whoareyou!

So I followed your instructions like 5 times on my Slide. I even went and purchased Root Explorer (my only paid for app in 10 months). Each time I use the file editor and save changes (I made a backup) then reboot the file reverts back to what it was before the changes were made. Oddly, each time after editing the file mysteriously disappears as well.
Any ideas why this is happening?

I just used adb and pulled the file while in recovery (although you must mount the system when in there). Modified it and pushed it back into place.
