Download Netflix for your BlackBerry Z10
Netflix isn't officially available for the BlackBerry Z10 but that doesn't matter much

Netflix on your BlackBerry Z10. You've been asking for it -- a lot. You'll need to sideload it but luckily we have plenty of guides to help you out there.
I do give you full warning though, It's slow. It's laggy. It's a really old version and it could stop working at any given point. But it most certainly does work for streaming whatever is available on Netflix once it gets going.
Now, you can finally download it for your device. Just hit the link below to grab the file and get started.

They should reeeeally try and make one for the PlayBook. I'm not a fan of Netflix on phones. I personality dont understand how bored you'd have to be for that option. But on my tablet? I could definitely make great use to it.
tharrison4815 Mar 12, 2013 at 5:01 am
HDMI. I plan on using Netflix when I visit hotels. All I will need to do is bring an HDMI cable and plug my phone into the TV.
k8bushlover Mar 12, 2013 at 11:14 am
Exactly! If people would just stop and think for a moment, before projecting their imaginations ("must be dead bored" -- "who would watch on a 4.2 inch screen?") about why someone would want Netflix on their phone... You personally may never have a use or desire for it, but don't stomp on others expressing the desire.
Actually, I find that a lot here -- "well, I would never use it
BB_Bmore Mar 11, 2013 at 7:49 pm
"built for BLACKBERRY10 only" lol umm no not really haha. Good job in finally "finding" the bar ;)
trueredsoxfan_58 Mar 11, 2013 at 8:31 pm
does the netflix app have native code in it?
Thunderbuck Mar 12, 2013 at 3:51 am
No, but it's created to run on the BB10 Android Player. That's why it won't work on the PlayBook. Once the PlayBook has BB10, though, this should work.
SifJar Mar 12, 2013 at 7:52 am
Yes, it does. But it seems the BB10 Android runtime must support native code, provided the following line is in the MANIFEST.MF:
Entry-Point-System-Actions: _sys_android_rrr
That was what made Instagram work (which also contained native code), and at the time Instagram was released, I noticed this and posted it in the forums. No one ever tried replicating it with Netflix though, despite my suggestion to do so (I don't have a Z10 myself, so couldn't test it myself).
supraking Mar 11, 2013 at 10:12 pm
Can anyone confirm whether this will load onto a Dev Alpha with the latest BB10 OS installed? I can transfer it over via DDPB but the icon doesn't show up on the device. Maybe just not compatible with the Dev Alpha?
FernCommodari Mar 12, 2013 at 7:39 pm
Works fine on my Dev Alpha (A) pics here:

Bla1ze Mar 11, 2013 at 6:58 pm
Navigation is slow and laggy. Streaming isn't.
rickytiffs Mar 12, 2013 at 3:06 am
exactly my point. who wants to navigate thru a slow and laggy app? ha.

Eehmm i think people use netflix mainly for streaming, not fondling around the app itself

what's up with an Amazon Instant Video app though?....
mkelley65 Mar 11, 2013 at 7:11 pm
It does not need one. I play Amazon videos just fine on my PlayBook with the stock browser. I'm sure the Z10's browser can handle it as well. I dumped Netflix years ago and haven't looked back. Everything I need is on Amazon.
loslobos34 Mar 11, 2013 at 7:23 pm
Agree totally. Everything I need or want to watch is on Amazon. I dropped netflix last year.

You're right, I just tried it and it works on my PlayBook (as does the Cloud Player)!
It would be nice to have an app though, making it easier to find content. I have it on my iPod touch and it looks great, so I know a Z10's screen would only make it look prettier.
I still dream of a "BlackBerry with Amazon" partnership of some kind.. a BBM-connected Amazon app could update BBM statuses to say what we are currently reading or watching..and maybe the contacts could somehow update what people you're having a meeting with have read or watched, so you could have something to talk about (creepy, but this ultra-connected thing seems to be taking off)..
misskalunji Mar 11, 2013 at 11:49 pm
is that even available for Canadians?
igotberryfever Mar 12, 2013 at 7:27 am
If you want a app for Amazon that you dont have to log in every time you can us tablet TV by CB user scoobs. There is the Amazon , HBO CIN max ect apps within his app and it works great.
Knightcrawler Mar 11, 2013 at 6:58 pm
Question bla1ze: why now?
Any reason this file wasn't made available earlier, since it's a side load anyway?
Posted via CB10
Bla1ze Mar 11, 2013 at 7:06 pm
I got tired of emails / pm's / tweets / BBM's and yes, even phone calls from people asking for it lol.
Bobert_123 Mar 11, 2013 at 7:19 pm
lol, why not release it to us in the first place?
Mike_Luchia Mar 11, 2013 at 7:22 pm
Yeah I'd say the reason it's only available now was to stem the revolt from the mind blowing surprise! This is what is known as an afterthought. Anyway, it was great fun (all be it time consuming) to read everybodies guesses. I don't use Netflix but It will be good when WhatsApp comes out this week.
Bla1ze Mar 11, 2013 at 7:28 pm
I like this reason better. Saves me a lot of hassle. Thanks! :)

Mikey_T Mar 11, 2013 at 6:59 pm
Well this is slightly more "Mind Blowing" than the previous announcement.
If Netflix sees a lot of people using this hacked-up sideloaded Android version maybe it will help influence them to bring out an actual BB10 app.

I wonder if we can get this to work too....
Posted via CB10
filmgirl Mar 12, 2013 at 5:36 pm
For now this is strictly a Chromebook-only solution. The whole reason Netflix uses Silverlight on the desktop is because of DRM -- the studios need assurance that their raw streams won't be rippable (which is the biggest issue with using Flash or HTML5 on a device without DRM hardware). They use HTML5 for most of their set-top solutions (including PS3 and Xbox) and on the mobile apps, but that's because those devices have hardware DRM built-in to prevent automated stream capture (this is why if you root certain Android devices, Netflix will stop working if it recognizes the root bypass). On the desktop, at least on Intel chips, it's harder to do that -- though with an official app or specific OS support, the stream could be encrypted.
This ARM-based Chromebook has the hardware DRM needed for the HTML5 compliance AND Google patched ChromeOS to serve encrypted streams. To wit, try running Netflix on a more "full" version of Linux on the same device -- it won't work.
This was a solution that Netflix and Google and Samsung engineered -- it isn't something joe user can patch together on his own because it would require proper authentication to get access to the HTML5 stream that Netflix is putting out.
In essence, only Netflix can make Netflix work in a BB10 or Playbook browser.

I don't get what's the big deal about netflix not available on bb10 yet... wouldn't you wanna watch it on an at least 46" screen ... I don't use Netflix and I love my Z10 ...
Xader Mar 11, 2013 at 8:08 pm
Sorry moneybags. Some of us don't even own a 46" screen.
Also, it's hard to take a 46" screen on the subway, when traveling, etc.
fentebaieuser Mar 11, 2013 at 8:11 pm
Remember its got an micro HDMI out that you can hook up to a 46" tv. Great for when you are staying in a hotel or other place. Thanks CB, still waiting for MTS to get there BB Z10 in stock as I still haven't heard anything thing from them as of yet. :( I'm still sporting a bb curve 8330...and MTS works the best in the rural areas of Manitoba.

Theoretically would Netflix be able to see that people are watching through the BB10 Android runtime and see how much we want an actual app from BlackBerry World?

Theoretically, yes. The version is so old they'll likely be wondering where the traffic is coming from.
dannyd86 Mar 11, 2013 at 7:36 pm
they have no reason to care. This cost them 0$ to release and anybody useing it will be paying customers.
but if other android apps are any indication the z10 will show up as "android device" like on kindle

Hurry up Netflix, come out with a BlackBerry 10 and PlayBook NATIVE APP please. You have until June of this year then I am cancelling.
NinerJet9 Mar 11, 2013 at 7:33 pm
This article speaks volumes about two things. One, I'm very happy to see an alternative to getting Netflix running on BB10 even if it's not native. At least you can get it to work. Two, when CB first broke the news of BB10 and showed the short clip of it working I was immediately suspicious of how well it worked. It just seems CB could have been a little more forth coming with the poor performance of the application at that time. A little indisgenuous if you will.

They said on the video that it was laggy.

Smokescreen or no, thank you, Bla1ze, for taking the time to upload and share this app. No, I have no use for it as I 1) have no Z10 yet, and 2) canceled my Netflix subscription the minute they sent out that silly tweet about not supporting BBRY way back when, but nonetheless I have downloaded it. Why? So that when I do get my Z10, I will upload it and leave it front and center on my app tray so people can see it! :D
dracolnyte Mar 11, 2013 at 7:49 pm
why so much demand for netflix? I have it and the contents blows... No good movies or series.

Does this also work on OMAP Z10's? (curious, cuz I know first version or so of the earliest Android Netflix app only supported Snapdragon units and workarounds were found so the app would run on many devices that initially they would not run on). Also this might be why it won't run on the Playbook.. it doesn't have a Snapdragon.
Just my thoughts, lol

Great for those who have been starving for Netflix on their Z10. I cancelled Netflix a while back. Not because it wasn't available on BlackBerry, but because the movie selection in Canada is so poor. I can find better movies on Crackle. Although you do have to watch a few commercials. Side loaded the Crackle App and it works just fine.

Kevin, Blaze, Adam. You guys have been given some real flack for all the hard work you've done lately. Not sure people realize it, but I'm pretty confident that without that hard work, a lot of us would have no info on blackberry at all. In fact we'd have to rely on sites such as BGR, Engadget, and C|net which actually gives me the shivers thinking about it. So somewhere in the middle of the bitching, here's a thanks from some anonymous Angry Edmontonian. Thanks.

Side loading is not as easy as it is made out to be. Firstly, the link in the article that is supposed to take you to the. bar file for download is not clear. What do we download here? When the link is opened it takes you to file dropper and no clear indication of what to install. No mention of Netflix here. Next, which java run time do we install? There are 2 for Windows 7 for example. The DDPB download is pretty straight forward but that's it.
Can someone please assist here..

It's easy on a PC too....check out http://apps.goodereader.com/playbook/playbook-android-apps/?did=177
Martin Green Mar 16, 2013 at 4:56 pm
Actually, sideloading with a PC is trivial with the right tools. Download the BAR file (just click the "Download This File" file button on filedropper and enter the captcha), go get DDPB, put your Z10 in developer mode, tell DDPB where the BAR file is and then tell it to install the app. Took me maybe 5 minutes.

Works very well. A bit laggy but once its streaming I couldn't ask for anything better.
Jerky223 Mar 11, 2013 at 10:36 pm
Thanks. I'll be sure to sideload when my Z10 arrives this week.

Side loaded it just to have it on my phone to silence the haters.

Meh, I couldn't be bothered with a Canadian version of Netflix to which its UI is crawling at best. When Netflix decides to waken up and build a native BB10 app or very smooth Android port, as well as convince the CRTC to unregulate their content in Canada. Then we can talk mind blowing! Until then, I'll stick to XBMC on my big screen or the CRACKLE app I sideloaded. To each their own I guess!

Appreciate the effort. I have no use for it on a phone though. I want to get it on my daughter's Playbook, so no happy dance here.
BrentRoss Mar 11, 2013 at 11:57 pm
Just wondering what you do blaize to make them work on runtime, or BB10 in general? I've looked into the scripting (coding) of these apps and then added them by sideloading constantly and haven't been successful. Will your way work with games like tempel run for example?
Thanks

I don't even have Netflix but im gonna download this onto my device and use a friends login just to show it off to people be like shut up! is that bad to do? lol
Ian Mascarenhas Mar 12, 2013 at 12:52 am
Agree people spread the word show off the capabilities and stop all the haters and stupid biased publications about BB10
R Field Mar 12, 2013 at 1:15 am
Thanks Blaze appreciate it brother.
greatwiseone Mar 12, 2013 at 2:05 am
It works great, even on the Dev Alpha A. Just to show how lazy/greedy Netflix is. They can easily drop an android version onto BB10 without much work.
ParmarMania Mar 12, 2013 at 3:26 am
Works great. A bit laggy because it's not native, but perhaps it'll give the idiots at Netflix the brains to make a native app for BlackBerry 10. No problem streaming :)
Is there a newer version of this app that we could side load? Perhaps help with the laggy scrolling?

Why are we trying to get in through the back door. I think it would be advantageous for BB to contact BB = BlockBuster. They have way more movies and they could work on an app for the new BB10 Maybe Blackberry will have a surprise up their sleeve but by not making an app for Blackberry netflix helps the competition by giving them an app most people want even if they don't use it. It is about relationships. Why not build one with Blockbuster who will soon close all their physical locations and may be open to a new partnership. BB10 Rocks
irwindersra Mar 12, 2013 at 11:23 am
There was no like button so I had to reply with a +1!!! This is a very good idea, would get blockbuster back in the game as well

Worked great on my Z10. I didn't find any lag at all while navigating. Since I have a 10" tablet it was kind of pointless on my phone, so I removed it, but wanted to check it out all the same :) Great job!! Keep it up :)
sorentoboy Mar 12, 2013 at 10:27 am
Dnwlded onto Z10, works good. UI is laggy yeah but movies play good and clean!
Didn't get it to work on PlayBook though...

Don't really care about Netflix... but! i would love to see the video purchase options become available for Indonesia users in blackberry world...

irwindersra Mar 12, 2013 at 11:27 am
I canceled my Netflix out of spite lol, now that this works I will check it out, if it works good I will consider getting my account back, if it lags I will hold out and stay on Netflix strike until they get a native app.
On a side note I wonder if every BlackBerry user canceled their Netflix on account of no BlackBerry App would get their attention? Who is down for a Netflix strike? I've already started lol

FreeJACLive Mar 12, 2013 at 2:08 pm
Thanks again CB + Bla1ze~! Wish you would have hosted the file with a download counter, oh well! I can't wait to try this out~! +1 req. for getting it on Playbook as well.
svelt Mar 12, 2013 at 2:29 pm
Wow, flat out wow. This isn't going to do much for sales but for hardcore Blackberry users this is huge, the fact that this has been made possible. I think almost any Android app is now possible
friendly1013 Mar 12, 2013 at 3:36 pm
I know it's been mentioned before, but PlayOn works great on PlayBook, for netflix, hulu, local media files, and literally dozens more channels.
walnuts1024 Mar 12, 2013 at 3:53 pm
I'm right there with you. I've had Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and HBO go for a while.
ksean007 Mar 12, 2013 at 4:13 pm
Just curious if anyone else finds the volume a bit on the low side? Still a fantastic app to finally have

I don't get why Net Flicks gets so much attention. If it's so awesome why does almost know one I know use it nor want it? Not saying it's BAD or or to be avoided or anything I just don't get why it gets so much coverage.

Odd, i've sideloaded this and after I attempt to run it, it shuts down right after the permissions screen. Anyone else experience this?
rawmotion Mar 12, 2013 at 5:17 pm
Yeah. Reboot after the install. Works now.
Thanks CrackBerry!

Netflix is the original #1 OTT TV app and a babysitter for many parents that have smartphones (for better or worse!) LOL!

I have been waiting for over 2yrs now to get Netflix working, 1st on the PB, and recently on the Z10.
I am amazed at how well this ported Netflix is working....flawless and brilliant.
Cheers to the team that has made this work.
P.S. In your face Netflix for not developping a native app in the first place!!!

Ditched Netflix today and the rep told me that THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET ON BB10 AND ARE GETTING PUSHBACK FROM BLACKBERRY. I HOPE THAT SHE IS A LYING HOURLY EMPLOYEE. BECAUSE I TOLD HER THEY HAD AMPLE TIME TO PRODUCE A NATIVE APP FOR US AND DID NOT. I MAY FEEL THE FOOL IF THORSTEN HAS BEEN PULLIN MY LEG.........CHEERS. THEY NEED ME. NOT VICE VERSA. I REFUSE TO SIDELOAD SHIT. MY OWN COMPANY IS NOT SUPPORTIVE OF BLACKBERRY EITHER AND I AM ABOUT TO STOP SPENDING MY MONEY THERE TOO.
