I used it to reverse engineer an old version of Netflix to allow it running on my Xiaomi projector. I no longer need it now as the projector is now Netflix-certified but it was incredibly useful to me in the earlier days. If your devices support Widevine L1 but not certified to run Netflix, you could use this little patch. https://github.com/longseespace/netflix_patch

I used to use this to decompile the Netflix app and others to allow screen rotation back when Android tablets were brand new and unsupported.

Edit, found the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rotation-lock-removal-req...
