Interesting. The only time the script leaves the cache files is when it isn't able to complete an edit. I had it leave them to help with troubleshooting.

I'm wondering since I know you said you had to update busybox to get the script working again after changing to the new ROM if maybe the previous busybox left a corrupt/unreadable file in cache. If so it's possible that file could fool the file checks I have in place and cause the script to stop before doing the edit.

In any case I'm glad you where able to get it to work after clearing the old files. I would love to figure out exactly what happened so I could add a check for it in future updates.

I can confirm that this works on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus LTE.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Gave this a go on my tfp using script manager method. It all seemed to install fine, per script manager. Changed the stock browser to desktop and when I try to load hulu on the browser it just stalls. Tried opening a new tab and loading a diff website -- stalled. If I open another browser it works fine. Any ideas?

Def taking slow connectivity into account -- using wifi hotspot from my phone -- so I don't expect it to zip through, but it never loads; I've left it there for half hour or so...
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] emerson julien:
This is awesome, you're doing good work. I just tried the mod on my Droid Razr and it's CONFIRMED. Hulu works on this device.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Tried this on my TB as well with no success...don't mean to be nagative nancy though -- mad props to the dev.

I did make better progress than running it on my TFP. -- After running the script on my TB and removing ads in terminal I can load hulu and even put it in full screen, but all I get is audio...I put the browser on linux desktop -- had a choice between linux and mac desktop -- perhaps that may be causing an issue...I'll keep trying on both platforms and post my progress and hopefully success.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
Thanks good to know. I'll add it to the list.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
First let me say, I apologize for not being around the last few days to respond.

Next, Can you be more specific as to the issue(s) you are running into. Maybe post or pm the scripts output so I can take a look. Also Im guessing TFP is a Asus Transformer Prime but Im wondering what the TB is. Some browsers work better then others. The stock ICS browser is working well on the A100 right now, but dolphin continues to have issues with full screen, as does chrome. Surefire is another browser option that works fine in full screen lots of browsers available.

Also if you are trying to remove the adds I would think that might cause issues playing hulu videos through the otherwise stock Adobe Flash. So I am guessing that may be causing the issue. My script doesn't bypass or eliminate Ads, or the need to have an account for restricted content. It's only purpose is to allow the user to access things like hulu as if it's a desktop PC on an Android device that is capable.

Also try to remember that hulu is a streaming media service running through Adobe Flash, and that can have a delay based on bandwidth and CPU performance as to load time, frame rate, picture quality, and sync of video and audio. My script can't help you with any of those things, but I'm happy to help you narrow the issue even if it has nothing to do with the script.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
Yep I can see from the script output that it was successful and able to confirm the file. It will perform a diff and also verify that it finds a specific string inside the binary after making the final copy and it reported it all. So I'm sure the libflashplayer.so file is fine.

As you can see here

and then here

those are a good confirmation the hexedit, file copy, etc was all successful. So the script worked fine for you.

As for the Browser I was wrong it's Skyfire not Surefire sorry about that. It works fine for me, as does Dolphin HD(but NOT full screen though it used to before the sonar updates). The Stock browser is what I like to use at the moment. Once you get used to checking the Show as Desktop each time it has nice performance. I still use Dolphin allot for a normal browser though.

It does sound allot like it might be a connection/bandwidth issue TBH. I know if I try to watch hulu from some wifi hotspots I can sorta watch but it's unreliable. At home or other places I know aren't throttled or low bandwith, weak signal etc. It works very well and I can even watch in 480p full screen which looks great on that little screen btw. I have even used it on trips to watch some TV on a large monitor via hdmi. I would be curious what it runs like in a location you know has a strong signal and ample bandwidth.

Thank you for the feedback information.

Let me know how it goes with what ever you decide to try next.

---Addedd in Edit----

This is normal and should happen the first time you run the script. The "Source File" is the hex edited copy of the file that is created by the script. That file by default would be /mnt/sdcard/Flashex2/WIN_libflashplayer.so and it will remain stored in place unless removed by the user. So the next time the script is run you will see a message saying Found Source file instead. It's just part of the system of checks I have in place to ensure everything runs properly. You may also from time to time see it say the Source File is old or out of date in which case it will edit an updated version and replace the old one with the update.;)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Nice thanks for the in depth reply...I'll give it a try some time soon..for now I get internet from tethering from my cell...lol...I will def keep you posted...

One last question, if I select boot in script manager, will it run up every time I boot and reboot? Is this necessary...or does the script run automatically each time?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
Your very welcome.

Yep, If you select boot and then save in script manager it will run the script each time after a full shutdown/reboot That's the way I have mine configured actually.

No the script will not rerun unless you run it, or configure your system via init.d, script manager, etc to run it at startup.

A good option if you don't plan to use it frequently is to create a Script Manager Widget on the devices home screen that will run the script. Then to run the script you just touch the widget icon sort of on-demand so to speak.

Once the script has been run you will not need to run it again, unless either Adobe Flash has received an update or you shutdown the device.

However if you wish to run it over and over it is safe to do so. The script will run a check first thing and if it detects the libflashplayer.so file has already been modified it will display a message to that effect, verify it's the right version and then exit.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Widget is a nice option, but I think I'll run it on boot and forget about it.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] generosity21:
Yes!! Thank you! Working on my Evo 3D ICS! My .so file didn't exist with the Flash included with my ROM (MeanROM ICS), so I updated Flash from .7 to .8, ran a flash web site, then the script worked fine! So one of those two things must have created the .so file.

The video stuttered a bit, not sure if that was my data connection or my processor.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
You're very welcome, and thank you for the feedback.

I have run into the same issue with the libflashplayer.so file before with a new/stock ROM that came wth flash preloaded and after an update the .so file appears. I will have to figure out it's other location and create a check for that some time.

Not sure on the specs for the EVO 3D could be either I'd say, or even memory.

Manual install for Asus transformer

I installed the libflashplayer.so manual i just browsed as root with script manager went to data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib and

backedup the previous libflashplayer.so to libflashplayer.so.bac and

pasted the modified on i got from the zip ics_hack_flash_hulu11.1.115.8\data\flash\ and it worked fine on my asus transformer running ICS. flashing through in recovery did not work for me (This should work for any other device going to test it on my Motorola droid 3.

Update works on dolphin HD, Opera mobile and maxthon pad for Asus transformer but stock browser doesn't work

breaks flash on droid 3 had to uninstalled and reinstall flash to regain flash support
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
You are welcome to try my script. The issue you describe doesn't sound like you used my script at all. It sounds like you downloaded a copy of libflashplayer.so inside a .ZIP file, which IS NOT Flashex, nor does it relate to this Thread.

If I am mistaken please explain what you DID do in relation to my script if anything.

P.S. If you would like help getting it to work and not having to worry about finding a new libflashplayer.so every time Flash updates just try using my script. It works like a charm.;)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Joecascio2000:
I confirm that this works on my GSM Galaxy Nexus with Jellybean (4.1.1). All you have to do is:

1) Install Flash Player 11.1 [here]

2) Download Flashex205.zip

3) Extract the Flashex2 folder and place on Internal SD Card

4) Run the script (I ran it with Rom Toolbox Pro)

5) Finally in stock browser, go to hulu.com, hit menu, then hit request desktop site.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] psych2l:
I can confirm this works on my Transformer Infinity, although I had to install an older version of Busybox (1.19.3 specifically) because the latest version was missing cat, hexdump, and rm
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Okay, a bit upsetting as I never got this to work on my Prime or thunderbolt...ran the script via SM...calrification point, before trying for like the 5th time, this hack allows you to watch Hulu tv WITHOUT a paid subscription, correct? So all I have to do is the hack and I'm golden?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Joecascio2000:
Yeah, you can watch anything that's on hulu.com without hulu plus. Make sure you have the latest SU Binaries and update busybox. Also make sure you run it with superuser (su).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
For the 5th try...got audio to work on colbert report after successfully running the script...All I get is a black screen and audio...running TShed 1.6 imoseyon kernel on my Thunderbolt...I am def running the script correctly and have flash 11. Still give props to OP but this has yet to work for me in all 5 attempts.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Well this is in the a100 forum....

Anyways you never mentioned if hulu works without this mod, if you haven't tried I suggest you do before saying this is broke when its something else.

Tapatalked from my Kindle Fire - Jellytime AOSP
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Right, clearly the A100 forum, but if you haven't noticed the hack is for the list of devices mentioned in the OP and most others not listed. I did not say it was broke, clearly not the case...but broke for me nontheless...Hulu does not work on my prime or thunderbolt with and without the mod. Thanks for the help though.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Oh you're right, I had forgotten the list my bad.

And apologies for putting words in your post, usually a post like that infers it being broken, which is why I asked if hulu worked anyways.

Tapatalked from my Galaxy S II.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Tis all bueno my brother...:cool:...I def hear what you're saying about common inferences about the half empty glass...

I do have a constructive question for OP or anybody who cares to share...is there a benefit to using the tar.gz & terminal (e.g. higher prob of success on tabs) over the zip or is the option just for the sake of choice?

Looking to happily try this again on my prime running aokp 6.1 stock kernel.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Joecascio2000:
I used the Zip version and just extracted it with Root Explorer. You said you got audio to work? If you did, then that's it. The problem is either your browser or the flash you have installed. This mod only gets you past the "Cannot watch on a mobile device" message that appears on all hulu videos. If you got past that then the issue is with something else.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Oh yea!..I got this working on my prime...so siked...just tried a different browser, as suggested (used dolphin and stock with no success) but works with s skyfire...thanks!

One thing to note, it does jam up my browser making it unable to navigate anywhere else...no biggie; set cache to clear on exit and created a widget for the script and it works like a charm.

WTF it's working again!? On top of that it worked on the native browser. I don't understand how it will work then not work and and work again?

I had the same issue trying to run it on my Infinity. But it appears if you install Busybox installer in playstore. And reinstall latest through there it should work. As it did for me.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] JoshClarke:
I need some help. The script installs fine, but when I attempt to watch a video on Hulu, the stock browser just closes. No force close messages. It just closes. It only happens when I open the page on Hulu with the actual video on it. How can I fix this?

P.S. For my own knowledge, how do I remove all traces of this script?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jjdevega:
Same thing happening to me with my Infinity. It closes with no warnings. Although it works when I go directly to the page of what I am watching. Try Dolphin browser. It seems to like that one more then the others. To remove, just remove the flash file that you placed on mnt/sdcard/flashhex2 remove script manager then reboot or cold boot. Hoping it will be more accommodating once JB lands.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] JoshClarke:
Am I to assume that libflashplayer.so is replaced with a reboot? I've removed the script and rebooted and my browser is still crashing when I visit Hulu.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ThunderRootedDragon:
Okay. I'm back, trying to get this running on my shiny new S3...to be clear I've had success running this on my prime... Script indicates applet cannot be found. I'll try to get a screen shot.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jjdevega:
Don't give up! This time use busybox installer and install 1.19.3 if you have other ver. installed. This has stopped all that force closing for me... for the meantime. testing it more.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] illego:
Just got it working on my gs3. I am assuming that you've installed busybox and tried to run it before you got that message. It looks like busybox is installed in system/bin. The script is looking for system/xbin. Tried installing busybox to xbin but that did not work.

Ended up editing the script. Look for the line with the Busybox location and change it to system/bin from xbin.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] patronanejo:
Looks like success. Gotta bolt for work, but I wanted to drop you a quick thanks before I take Hulu for a test-drive.

A note for the chronically hung-over--it's easier to unzip and negotiate the directory structure hooked up to Windows (Mass Storage Mode), but it's also easier to forget that /mnt/sdcard/ is the handset's internal storage (on the Bionic, anyway). If Windows called it /mnt/ext-sdcard/ instead of Removable Drive F: I wouldn't have spent the last ten minutes downloading a succession of terminal emulators and script handlers.

Thanks again, bro.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] patronanejo:
Update

Total success...Thank you ever so much!

I've got a couple of questions:

• Should I set my script manager to run flashex205.sh on boot?

• How quickly could this script be tweaked to automate changing the stock (Gingerbread) browser's user agent on boot?

• There has to be a better way...right now I'm typing about:debug in the address bar before drilling down through

Menu > More > Settings > Debug/UAString > Desktop​

• Do you still recommend against DolphinHD? I've had decent results long-pressing the video link and selecting Open in New Tab.

Thank you again! I am kicking myself that you've made this available since May...I just gave up when hand-editing libflashplayer.so stopped working.

Hulu on Kindle Fire HD Rooted.

Thanks so much! After encountering several errors on my end (not with the script) I got this to work on a Kindle Fire HD. I had a problem installing it because I didn't have busybox installed correctly. To fix that I installed JRummy's version then Stephen (Stericson) then JRummy's version again. The first install was missing symlinks and gave me the cannot find busybox problem. The second install gave me the sh applet error, but I was able to install it through Android Terminal Emulator in spite of this issue just couldn't get it to install through SManager. The last install fixed the sh applet error and I can now run it through SManager (which is what I wanted, so that I could set it to launch on boot)
