Netflix shows 5.2 error on Samsung when trying to watch series and movies For some reason, I am suddenly getting a 5.2 error when I try to play videos. I found this on Reddit, but no one found a soltuion. Rooted devices can fix it, so here is my question:

Is there any way to solve the error on unrooted Samsung devices?

Checked the Netflix help center, but the 5.2 error isn't listed.

As usual, removing the app, clearing data, restarting device, tried over 4G, restarting netflix app, tried online and offline, previously viewed and unviewed, series and movies and every other suggested solution to different errors. 

Nothing works. Any ideas if this is fixable, or if it is a Netflix issue?



Checking reviews on Google PLay reviews of the Netflix app and Reddit (see link above) there are a lot of people affected by this (5.2 error). It looks like it is Samsung only, as I can't reproduce it with my tablet (non-samsung)
I recommend you contact netflix directly. There is an old APK that they will provide to circumvent this problem. its a temporary fix but it works
