I read that someone on another site made an APK that lets you edit the build prop with just installing an update.zip

they said they never released it because doing it this way by sideloading the app won't let you have access to the updates unless you manually find leaks.

which isn't true since alot of backup apps let you re-link your sideloaded apps to the marketplace.

Edit: Nevermind, that hack is only meant to let you download the app from the marketplace, so no point if you ask me since Droid-Life and other sites are already hosting it.

The Hulu Plus apk needs to be modified like the Netflix apk was for this to work without checking for device id's.

[Android Apps and Games] njgtechguy:
The evo 4g with cm7 won't work with a build.prop for the nexus one or droid 2.
[Android Apps and Games] drisner:
Confim Hulu+ works on G-Tablet with Cyanogen 7.0.3. It works really well -- menus are faster than Netflix.

I'm running the hacked version of Flash that lets one watch regular Hulu through the web browser (although it doesn't work that great). Maybe that has something to do with it? Doubt it, but maybe.

Still haven't been able to get it to work on any ROM on my Inspire 4G. I've given up trying until some hacks come out.
[Android Apps and Games] Matthileo:
Does anyone know how the app is checking what device is being used. It obviously isn't build.prop, but is it something else that could be changed (as a workaround if the app isn't hackable)?
[Android Apps and Games] drisner:
I wonder if one thing is checking if it can contact its ad server, so if you have AdFree or a hosts file blocking ad servers, it doesn't work.

I also wonder if it blacklists your device once it has been tried on a device with ads blocked (which would explain why I can't get it to work on my Inspire with same ROM it works for others with). Probably not.
[Android Apps and Games] Matthileo:
Not sure, but I'm not blocking any ads, so that's not the problem for me.

Also I don't think the ad-blocking app will apply to the hulu app, because those ads are injected directly into videos straight off of hulu's own servers, not from a third party.

I could be wrong about that though.
[Android Apps and Games] coolsilver:
I though having a Hulu Plus subscription, to use this app, removed any video ads.
[Android Apps and Games] metaldood:

[Android Apps and Games] drisner:
Nope, Hulu Plus gets you mobile & tv viewing as well as a larger selection of shows, but still just as many ads.

[Android Apps and Games] DiDGR8:
It seems to work with any Gingerbread ROM based on the old (.29) linux kernel. The last STABLE (7.0.3) CM works on my Nexus One and my Nook Color, but later nightlies based on the new .32 linux kernel do not.

I checked all the build.prop setting and they didn't vary. It's the kernel. Now don't ask me how it can tell which kernel.
[Android Apps and Games] lschroeder:

[Android Apps and Games] Wifflepig:
The netflix app wasn't hacked. Netflix removed the device checks themselves, but you still had to modify your build.prop if you got double-speed / chipmunk voices in Netflix.
[Android Apps and Games] Wifflepig:
Is this trying to fool it as a Nexus S (as listed in the OP), also? Is it worth a shot for me to even bother trying to edit the build.prop? (I've been on the 7.1 nightlies for awhile with my nook color).
[Android Apps and Games] Lord-Anubis:
Nope, changing your build.prop to nexus S doesn't work, and i have an epic 4G, which has almost the same hardware...

[XPERIA X8 General] Dheano:
My friend's Xperia X8 had problems last time, getting stuck at boot. I fixed it, rooted it, threw some stable things on (ROM, app mods etc). Fine, except camera wasn't working.

Anyways, phone turned off last week and now refuses to come back on, not even when plugged into the wall or by USB.

Isn't showing up in ADB (obviously) and also not being picked up by SE PC Companion.

Miserably failing here, can't think of any ideas so, can you guys help me out?
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
so i guess i shouldve come here and read more about the ns4g before i even got one. the reason why? the reception of course. and when i call sprint wanting to return it it sounds like they will say anything to get you to keep it.

the store i ordered it from (they were out of stock but had one sent to my house 2 days later) wouldnt take it back because "the manager sold it to me and only he can do the returns/exchanges for the items he sells"

so then i called sprint and they wanted to give me an airave. why would i want that? i didnt need it with my evo why should i need it now? because the ns4g has issues thats why.

so then i did some searching around and found out theres 3 "open tickets" in illinois. so of course after they ask my zip code they find it in there as one of the affected.

is the issue on this phone so bad and they sold so many that everyone wants to return them?

i got the feeling sprint doesnt want it back because they know it might not get sold again or something.

i dont know im just disappointed in both the phone and the way i was being handled. i really dont want to pay verizon prices and tmobile isnt that much cheaper in fact is now more then what im paying for my plan
[Nexus S General] JeramyEggs:
I felt the same way with a fascinate from Verizon. Fortunately I returned it. I think that if you look around here longer, you might find some answers to your problems. I found that Samsung didn't meet my expectations, but hope you can mod it to your satisfaction....
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
Not sure what is up with the Samsung hate. The Fascinate isn't Samsung's fault. That is completely Verizon's fault. Other SGS do not have the problems the Fascinate has.

I do not own an SNS4G (I've got a T-mobile 3G). I love my phone and feel it has a higher build quality than "better" HTC and Motorola phones (note that heavy and/or metal backs do not equal quality).
[Nexus S General] Smokexz:
I don't know what the issue is with the Nexus S 4g but my Nexus S is amazing, battery life I great and I listen to music a lot, the keyboard is amazing and to top it all off you get Netflix! I would imagine the quality on Netflix over 4g would be amazing! Why people hate on Samsung is beyond me, at least they aren't HTC making overpriced Evos. Still give the Nexus S 4G a try, whatever issues you have with it ask on here and maybe there are solutions that you might not even know about. Trust me, no device on the market can beat the Nexus S, simply because of Stock Android. It really makes the device fly, even after not turning it off in weeks it runs smooth as silk.

[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
every issue im having is the same that others are having. **** reception
[Nexus S General] tekkitan:
I think you misread, he already has a Nexus S 4g and is having signal issues like others.
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
I had the NS4G for a few weeks - the reception is awful. I am outside of Chicago and in "best" coverage areas for 3G and 4G and would get 1 bar at best most of the time. Downtown coverage was good, but the signal strength compared to other Sprint devices was just poor.

If you picked up the device new or on a contract you have 14 days to return it - they cannot deny you that return in that window. If you purchased outright you have 30. Don't let them hassle you - go into the store and tell them you are returning the device. On your receipt (or received with your purchase) you should have a document explaining the exact return policy and timeline.
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
it was an "upgrade" so i do have 30 days. supposedly theres a tower outage thats affecting crest hill, fairfield, plainfeild, romeoville(where i am) and lockport plus a few more. the peoblem is that issue started on the 12th and is still ongoing.

i really want to keep this phone but if not and the tower issue isnt fixed by the 28th day im gonna jump ship. ill just have to figure out that unroot trick, it makes no sense to me. someone needs to make everything 1-click for idiots

how good is tmobiles service? do you ever go south like wilmington area or grundy county?
[Nexus S General] Quis89:
That excuse about the manager being the only one who can return it sounds like b.s....
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
of course it is. and the guy knows im rooted too so i have to figure out how to un root it

oh and since i woke up ive been roaming......in my house. maybe i need to do some tethering today.
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
Service with T-Mobile is actually pretty good. In and around chicago you are set. In the Joliet, Plainfield, Crest Hill area service is great - data speeds are usually 2-5mpbs on speed tests. I almost always have full coverage. I don't have any issues with dropped calls or texts. Time is spent between the Chicago Area, Rolling Meadows/Schaumburg and Joliet/Plainfield/Naperville.

I travel through Wilmington to visit family and always have service (Even in fairly rural areas in Irquois county). Somewhere between 55 and 57 you'll drop to edge, but service remains good.

Unrooting is easy.

Grab this set of images and extract. If you have the SDK tools dir in your PATH then you can just cd to the extracted directory. If not then drop the files into the tools dir with fastboot.

http://wonderly.com/bb/CRESPO4G/OEM/GRJ22IMAGES.zip

Then:

Wipe your SD card.

Boot into bootloader manually or via ADB

From the command prompt:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot oem lock

You may get an error overwriting userdata - if you do you can just fastboot erase userdata

That's it.
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
what you wrote

what i read.........

lol. i guess i just have to try and figure some of this stuff out. i have sdk, dont know what it does or how to use it. dont know if i have adb and probably wouldnt know what to do with it if i did. i have qpst and again dont know what it does or how to use it.

but thanks for the tmoblie info, i have a lil summer place in braidwood and i know the sprint signal is better there then in romeoville tho theres no 4g and thats where i do most tethering.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
I have a sprint ns4g. Wherever I go I get the same signal quality as all my coworkers with evos and heros. I'm not sure but there has to be some differences in built versions.

My time without signal is usually 5% or less. I don't get it. I wish I had someone in the same spot as I am so we can compare two nexus phones side by side.
[Nexus S General] Bostonfin:
I returned mine and got the evo 3d no signal issues what so ever. Also, the Evo 3d is just as smooth even with sense.
[Nexus S General] spx_trader:
I went from a evo to the ns4g and love it. My signal is great, no dropped calls yet and my home office is in my basement, used to drop at least one call a week on the evo. battery life is incredible compared to my evo. I have not problem at all going a full day of normal usage on a full charge. i was lucky to get 5 hours on my evo. I did think about exchanging it for the evo 3d but decided not too, the size of the ns4g is perfect, the evo felt to big and heavy for me. everything i read about the 3d is that the battery sucks worse than the evo. battery is the most important thing to me in a phone. I would rather have the updates right away and forget the sense, i hate that crap.

btw, when i did my yearly upgrade i did try the htc arrive at 1st because i wanted to check out the windows phone, and sprint did give me a hard time at 1st on the exchange. with a little *****ing they took it back and waved the 35.00 restocking fee. you just have to be firm with them. I always deal with telephone sales, never the store, its much easier to get someone with authority. 2 years ago they even exchanged one for me after the 30 day period. I got the palm pre and hated it. it wasn't an official exchange, they sold me a bb curve for 199.00 and had me send the pre back on the sprint buyback and got 150 through that. not too bad since i was past the 30 day period. Just ask for the escalation department.
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
well im pretty sure that my home signal issues are due to a still open ticket which was opened on the 12th in my general area.

yesterday 30 miles south of me in the small town boonies my signal was 3 and 4 bars @ -76db and -65dbm with blazing old school 3g. i dont use speedtest or anything but it was fast as hell, yet no 4g down there.

and l was also 15 miles west of home in a more densly populated area and signal was just as good there.
[Nexus S General] mikeyinid:
I live in nampa Idaho and we have excellent sprint coverage here and I still have signal issues. On the evo I almost always had full bars. My nexus rarely has more than one bar.
