Hi everyone,

I tried to install the apk from @aiemassfiria in his original thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/netflix-hd-ultrahd-ultrahd-dolby-5-1-l1-t3535349) but it doesn't work on my Mi projector. So I modded the apk myself (this only apply for Widevine L1 device

Changes log:
- v0.3: Enable HDR
https://github.com/longseespace/netflix_patch/releases/tag/v0.3

- v0.2: Patch new version (netflix v4.16.3 - HD)
https://github.com/longseespace/netflix_patch/releases/tag/v0.2

If you want to patch yourself, here is the guide:
https://github.com/longseespace/netflix_patch

Make sure you have `patch` installed (built-in in macOS, Linux. Not sure about Windows)

Basically, find and replace all isDeviceHd(), isWidevineL1Enabled() etc. to true.

Hope it would work for you

So I have Oneplus 7 Pro btw. I just tried it real fast but couldn't play any videos though.
The UI was like all white with white text in some screens too.
I'm gonna try it again later.

unfortunately neither of them work on my Huawei Mediapad M5 Pro, rooted & unlocked bootloader.
There was a ROM once that kept Widevine L1 and Netflix HD (Omnirom or Resurrection Remix from OpenKirin.net), netflix came preinstalled
any hints on how to get it back? :)
would patch myself, but the instructions are a little bit obscure when it comes to the scripts (+ I do not understand exactly, what the script does)

(My phone also is the OP7Pro, but that's not rooted yet, as I want to keep netflix HD :D )

Just set everything up:

I cannot run the patch -pß -i ./netflix.patch
as windows says the command cannot be found?

edit: forgot: I am on Win10 ...

thanks man, your latest apk worked in 720p maybe.
It only showed HD logo on the altered carbon series.
download file was around 203 mb, my friends untouched s9 got 283mb download.
but at last your version worked.
this build is 4.12 and shows 5.1 audio and ultra HD, but again downloads are 480p, i tested it - https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/guide-to-netflix-hd-hd-dolby-5-1-t3951698
lookng forward you can fix and get 1080p streaming and downloading.
device - S9+ with devbase rom, august patch. (Magisk Rooted)

Did you mean you can get 1080p streaming but only 480p downloading? Also can you test with the newer patch. I've just updated the post to patch Netflix 4.16.3
