Bought it from geekbuying @ Amazon. Netflix loads never plays. Flashed w/geekbuying.com firmware fix, but wifi quit. Any more advice?

Geekbuying is selling a new version with realtek wifi, version 5. Either that or you flashed non-b firmware. I don't see it on their blog but there is a realtek wifi download on freaktab in the mk808 forum. Try that if you're sure you flashed the b firmware and it didn't work.

I am having the same problem. A trouble shoot page about NetFlix suggested I instal FireFox. Tried it, FireFox wont run either. If anyone figures out a way to fix this problem please share!

I have the Coby 10 inch version and was finally able to get Netflix to work using version 1.5.2. Any newer version the audio and video get out of sync. Here is a link to download the apk file (toward the bottom). They are modified to not ask for newer version. Connect to the USB and copy the file to the download folder. Then just use your APK installler or file manager program to install.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19202722

This is a common problem with the Samsung TV's, there are posts all over the internet about it. Fixes range from resetting the Smart Hub software to resetting the TV to factory defaults to having the mainboard in the TV replaced. I tried everything I could find (except having the mainboard replaced) and none of them worked. After hours of trying to figure out why HBOgo would work and not Netflix, I tried placing my TV's IP address in the DMZ of my router. Much to my surprise, this worked. I didn't want to leave it there, so I looked for updates to my router firmware. After updating the router firmware, I was able to take the TV out of the DMZ and Netflix continued to function. Apparently the Samsung Netflix app uses some sort of network traffic the old firmware didn't support. Before updating the router, Netflix streamed fine to my PC, Boxee Box and DVD player, but not to the TV...so I know it has to be an issue with the newer app... The Netflix setup is my only complaint about this TV, with how long Netflix has been around, you wouldn't think this would be an issue anymore.

Okay, I know it sounds crazy, but this is what worked for me on my Panasonic Blu-Ray player. Maybe it'll work on a TV too. I was having the same problem. All of a sudden, Netflix stopped working after months of wonderful streaming. Nothing would work. The I found this somewhere online - you need to deactivate your netflix account on the blu-ray player. To get to this option: after you get your error message, instead of "try again" or "back" do this: on your remote hit: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up, Up. I kid you not. It takes you to the deactivate screen. Hit deactivate. You might have to do it once or twice (I had to do it twice). Then I was prompted to re-login to my Netflix account, and then it worked again! I know it sounds ridiculous, but apparently the programmers at Netflix have a sense of humor...

Good luck! After being hung up on three times when I called the company for assistance I gave up and bought an Apple TV to watch my Netflix through. This machine is trash, and it's customer service is worse! At least the blu ray player works!

Mine just froze after signing into Netflix which I had not looked at for a couple of months. They asked me to sign into my account and after that it froze. Had to unplug it and then plug it back in and then it rebooted.

I just returned my unit and got a replacement and the new unit works fine, no problems connecting to netflix. Also, my original unit didn't process the firmware upgrades because the new unit now has blockbuster and you tube on it. So it you have the chance, you might want to take it back for an exchange.

My Netflix icon showed up right away. I did have a connection issue when initially setting up the TV. I called the 800 number that is listed on the owned manual and they were very helpful. Try calling LG.

Hi,Netflix version 1.8.1 works. Here you can find a link:http://www.rikomagic.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t;=881&sid;=45bd9f40a2f412f2e8c1eb77e09c870f&start;=10

Shyam, make sure you've downloaded the latest update for this tablet. There was a Netflix issue with the original firmware that has been fixed. If you've already updated just check every volume control everywhere... especially Netflix itself to make sure the volume isn't muted.

At the beginning I had issues with netflix. Solution: make sure your internet provides at least 9Mbps in download (test it),wire your connection instead using wifi.

Thank you, Phil. I read somewhere on the discussions that a user had downloaded firmware that locked up his machine and the company said that there was really no fix for it yet so he was stuck with a machine that no longer worked. I have another question. My computer is upstairs and my bigscreen with Bose sound, etc. is downstairs in the family room. How do I go about running netflix streaming movies. Do I need anything downstairs or does the signal come in from netflix into a Gateway at my house and they are already connected. I am so out of touch anymore. It is hard to believe that I used to be the district technology cooridinator for our community grade school district. DUH Thank you, Phil.

Robbie....Thanks for the wealth of discussion on the S560 I am another dope who thought he would get Netflix streaming only to find out the it was only available on the S460.. then my son in law called a few mins ago and said the tech that had just set up his HD TV and PS3 said he needed the disk from Netflix before he can receive netflix. He then said I should use the disk to set up the S560 .... now I can tell him the it "almost works" but needs a date/time config........any more ideas guys?

I took mine back to RadioShack where I purchased it in August 2010, and exchanged under their warranty. I got another S470, with a newer more recent warehouse date. They insisted that the S470 should have no problem with Netflix, and they sell a lot of them because of its price point. Anyhow, the new one has given me no trouble so far. Keeping my fingers crossed, but so far so good. Kudos to RadioShack for honoring their warranty printed on the receipt.
