This guide outlines the steps through which you could watch Netflix in HD on rooted devices. Once you have unlocked the device’s bootloader, then you lose the Widevine L1 certification. As a result, you won’t be able to watch Netflix content in HD. Well, this is something that happens with most of the OEMs. But with some Motorola devices (Action, Vision, etc) even after unlocking/rooting, many apps show it to be Widevine L1 supported, but the real picture comes out once we launch the Netflix app.
Well, some say that the Widevine L1 certification is absent even in a locked bootloader as well. Although I can’t comment on this fact, one thing is sure that this is one of the most disliked aspects of this entire scenario. But I found a way out of all this. Using the given instructions in this guide, you could easily watch Netflix in HD in any device. Well, it shouldn’t be limited to just Motorola and should work on other OEMs as well. The below guide, however, has been performed on Motorola devices.
