I did both of the above. Didn't edit hex either. Desktop-check, replaced file-check, hulu.com desktop-check, permissions-check. Did both widget and desktop still a no go. Ill try again later

Edit: ran hulu.com through dolphin browser and finally got hulu to work. Weird. But now I'm only able to watch the 30sec ad. After ad finishes playing, screen iz black and nothing. Even waited for it to buffer or whatever but no success. I don't wanna go to hulu to watch tv ads haha. Any ideas what problem this might be?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] crxtasi:
Thanks for the tip OP! Reminds me of the nexus days when froyo came out and it was a cat and mouse game. Wonder how long this will last till hulu blocks it again!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] droctii:
Is your flash plugin set to On Demand or Always On? I find that Always On tends to work better most times.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
Always on. Must be just my luck
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] gdbjr:
Copied the file, change the permissions and went to hulu.com and it worked. It is challenging to get to full screen mode, but well worth it until Hulu decides to give us an official client.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] CRoman247:
ok got it working in stock browser but not in dolphin HD... anyone else have that issue are there some other settings i need to change in dolphin?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] ls1xtreme:
What permissions is everyone taking about??? I've copied the file and have the settings set to desktop but don't know what permissions to check...
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
Long press the file, a menu will pop up and click on permissions. Now edit them
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] ls1xtreme:
okay so i finally got this working...works great...i was curious and tried using netflix.com and was trying to watch something online but instead of getting the browser is not supported, it actuay asked me to install the silverlight pug-in...does anyone know if something similar could be installed so netflix will work...thanx again to those how figured this out...
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] jstep:
This works very well.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] halfcalf:
same, working in stock but not dolphin, then again, i didnt spend much time tying to get it to work in dolphin, after it didnt work the first time i tried stock...
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Kienz:
FYI, if you have automatic updating checked off for Flash, the update causes the "Browser not supported" issue to return. I'm going to attempt to edit the data folder with the same file as before, to see if that works.

*update*

Success.

Just re-copy the file into the folder, and re-change the permissions again, as stated in the OP. Just checked out a Godd Morning America clip. Controls are a bit of a challenge. But we're good to go.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] hawaiian.monzta:
I did. Only works in dolphin HD. Not stock
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Editing the shared lib is pretty simple (if you are familiar with an editor like emacs, and possibly also doable with vi). Here are the before and after md5sum of the files found in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib

c90a2f94401ef5a27e67c5abc6b9c6d3 libflashplayer.so

aba1152d0efd262cc524ad5e91e8bedf orig-libflashplayer.so

also... the permissions are easy enough to ensure in an adb shell session:

# cd /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib

# chown system:system libflashplayer.so

# chmod 755 libflashplayer.so

# ls -la

drwxr-xr-x 2 system system 4096 Dec 3 11:49 .

drwxr-x--x 3 app_92 app_92 4096 Nov 29 20:28 ..

-rwxr-xr-x 1 system system 6529108 Dec 3 11:48 libflashplayer.so

-rwxr-xr-x 1 system system 843731 Sep 30 2009 libysshared.so

-rwxr-xr-x 1 system system 6529108 Sep 30 2009 orig-libflashplayer.so

#

Note: those md5sum values are for the updated latest package from the market. I'm happy to attach my libflashplayer.so file if anyone wants, but I know I personally would rather edit the .so file myself rather than take someone elses, not to suggest anyone would post trojans! ;)
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] ggolemg:
Please do. Thank you very much.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Alright. Zip file attached. Please verify md5 before placing file in place of original. Also remember to backup file first.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Mase_Mase:
Works for other *tube sites as well

Hulu works for me! Also, as a bonus, setting the player and browser to desktop lets me view other *tube like sites ;) in the desktop format and not the forced mobile version with limited access.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] nmw407:
I was really hesitant to do this at first seeing I'm not that comfortable with the more tech aspects and ADB. But this turned out soooo easy to do.

Now Hulu works perfectly!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] NightRiderr:

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] boon2:
This does not work anymore. Anyone having the same issues?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] smonme:
I am, I couldnt get it to work at all, I see on the evo forums they have an app and a version of hulu that updates when flash updates... what's keeping us from getting the same?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Part Four:
Not working anymore.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] dodgepot:
Awesome, just got it up and running. Thanks for the great work!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mulletcutter:
It works? The post above u says no....i guess ill try when i get home
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] RavenWulf:
it's working fine for me, am watching Family Guy right now. also I can finally play Assassin's Creed : Project Legacy on my phone, before when I would go to it through Facebook it would give the same as Farmville "Your mobile device is not supported at this time" now both games load right up no issues.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] dodgepot:
Yeah man it works great. I copied the file from the 3rd page. Can't remember who posted it.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] Part Four:
Well now it looks like it WOULD work, but won't load the videos due to an inability to load ads. Keeps giving me a message that it was unable to load an ad from Hulu's partners, and that the messages from their partners is what allows them to provide a free viewing experience.

Probably would work if I wasn't using AdFree. Not sure though.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mulletcutter:
Yep works with the hulu app
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] RavenWulf:
I'm running AdFree also and got that message. I refreshed page and logged into Hulu, reselected video and it started playing. it kept buffing due to the ****ty weather here in the DFW Metro but I tried again later and it was running perfectly.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
It stopped working for me today. for some reason it does not know that I have flash player installed. I am running evil d's desire z Rom. does it still work on the stock Rom?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] jase33:
WORKS. Had to login to get past the ad/sponsor message.

EDIT - played the first portion of the show and stopped at the first commercial break with the ad/sponsor cant play message. backed out and started again, but it played from beginning and stopped at ad/sponsor message again.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
I can't even get to that. It just shows the buffer not filling up. No add message just a black screen after it shows " this show is brought to you by..." and then nothing. Before it used to have the timer working in case it could not show the commercial... now nothing.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] rjhay22:
Question... Anyone tested this on gingerbread based ROMs? Says in the OP tested on Froyo. :) Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mulletcutter:

You have a hulu app????

Where did you get it????

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] 18.4009:

[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mulletcutter:
I just sent it to u...either u posted it fast or found it somewhere else
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] 18.4009:
Yeah, found it right after I sent you a pm. Thanks for the reply! going to try yours and see if it is different then the one I found also.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Definitely still works. The only issue is that every time flash is updated, you have to byte edit the libflashplayer.so file and change the AND string to WIN. See my post on page 3 of this thread. I'm attaching the latest .so file that I placed in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] mikejet:
so this tricks Hulu into thinking that the phone isn't a phone and you are going to Hulu from a desktop?

can this method be used to play Youtube vids that aren't mobile compatible?
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
I too found the thread with the HULU app This one has landscape and preferences.

I also found out that for some reason it is easier to install the hacked flash file on roms that do not have flash pre installed. (I deleted all of the flash files from my rom with 7zip before flashing the rom)

Now, all of the flash versions and all of the HULU versions work. :)
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] erickdj:
didn't work for me. Tried the latest zip file, did the chmod 755 command, installed the hulu apk, and did the "desktop" client option in the browser. nothing seems to make it play videos. If I try going to hulu.com within the browser I get a "could not communicate with server" error dialog box. Any ideas? Seems like I did everything others are doing to get it to work.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] imaur:
The site just said not supported platform on the stock browser. But when I used Dolphin HD, it worked perfectly.

Skyfire works also. Dolphin mini works but it is extremely slow.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] shadowmike:
i was watching the newest family guy, so it works.. however is there away to get FULL screen and not just 3/4 full screen. i dont like having an inch of black space on my screen while watching videos. i can deal with it but would rather have true full screen.

the hulu app does nott work. it keeps saying "video does not support this platform".

the actual site and widget works though! :)
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] legioncwe:
Easy way to do it with just your phone

Hey guys I was reading this and wasn't near a computer but I figured out a quick an easy way to edit the file with just your phone.

If you go to the market and search for "hex editor" there isa free app.. download it. :)

Open the hex editor app (it'll request root) then go to open file and navigate to the data/ data/ flash/ lib directory from the original post.. select the file you have to edit.

When it opens go to search and search for "AND" it should take you right to the string you need to change.. change each letter individually to "WIN" then just hit save.

All done.

Now just change browser settings etc like OP describes.

PS I'm running gingerbread and hulu works great.

Thanks for the tip and great find getting this to work. Enjoy hulu guys. :)

Pps i don't deserve any credit for the original fix, I'm merely sharing an easier way to edit the file if you don't have access to a computer and hex editor.. all credit goes to those who deserve it.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] wickedny15:
which version of flash are you on?? Im on 10.2 and android 2.2.1 but it doesnt work anymore
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] :
Here is the one for the new flash i got it somewhere from the thunderbolt forums. Works with hulu.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] carrrnuttt:
Freakin' awesome!

Uninstalled stock Flash 10.2, installed this apk, and voila! Hulu running in full-screen glory on my rooted (s=off) phone running CM7 and faux123's 2.4.8 kernel.

Much thanks!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010606 that should work from the thunderbolt forums .
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] leprasmurf:
I had come to the same conclusion myself, but I still ran into problems. First issue is that I had to copy the .so file to a temporary world-writeable directory before a save would succeed. Second issue deals with the version inconsistency between mobile and desktop flash. From the market, I received 10.3.185.21 but according to www [dot] adobe [dot] com/software/flash/about/ (stupid anti-spam measures) the latest desktop version is 10.3.181.14.

Once I replaced "AND" with "WIN" and changed the version number, Hulu started working.

Also, I force stopped my browser to make sure the changes would go through, and the UA string reverted to android (checked whatsmyuseragent [dot] com/). I had to go into debug and reselect "Desktop" to make it work.
[myTouch 4G Themes and Apps] daners85glacier:

If I am starting from scratch (this is my first time in this thread/haven't done anything yet) what are the instructions for getting this working if I download the 10.2+hulu apk? The OP seems to only have instructions to add the old apk into the flash folder?
[Advantage X7510 General] AllGamer:
Bricked?? it goes to the 3 color screen, then stuck at white Loading...

So the original Hard-SPL was flashed successfully

but when i tried to load [ROM][WM6.5.5_23569] 4.0 - Vico it gets stuck on the White Loading.... screen

How can I recover?

Thanks

P.S. : If i do a hard reset, it still goes past the 3 color screen, and then it gets stuck on the white loading... screen
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Can't you reflash? like hold camera and reset to enter boot loader, then try to reflash.

I don't understand (post picture if possilbe) of "white loading screen"

You mean underneath the three colours in the white area it says "loading"? instead of "usb"?

Have you tried flashing another rom?

Remember this rom is for the x7510 device.

The point of the hardspl is that even with a bad flash you can still enter bootloader and reflash.
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Make sure you don't have sd card/adapter in there ect.

Are you able to connect the device to the computer via usb and have a connection? If you do then its not bricked.
[Advantage X7510 General] AllGamer:
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think that was the problem the SD card

yes it was there

i tried again, and it worked....

LOL :p:D it's... been too long not using a WM phone
[HD7 General] cadcamtx:
I seem to be having an issue with the streaming quality of nextflix when I am at home. I have a netgear WNDR3700-100NAS router and I cannot tell the difference in quality if I am on wifi or the 3g. When I am at work on our wifi the quality is much better. At home I have several computers and a google tv and they all stream very well. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Scott
[HD7 General] alabij:
I have a feeling the wifi router at work is industrial and is capable of more bandwidth than your home. From what you stated the quality is better at work than at home. You also stated you had a lot of internet ready devices already plugged in.

Try this, powercycle your router (it may sound trivial and you've probably already done it). I had the same issue too but I use a D-Link DGL 4500.

Also try to do a speed test from your phone and another wireless device and compare speeds. Finally make sure your router is not close to your home phone(if you have a cordless)
[HD7 General] cadcamtx:
I will power cycle the router as mentioned. What is the best way to perform the speed test?

No landline phone at all. Also the rest of the devices connect wirelessly and were not being utilized when I have tried to use netflix on my phone.
[HD7 General] cadcamtx:
Well stangely enough it was not a real issue at all. It seems that when the streaming first starts that the quality is a little poor. Shortly after the movie starts streaming (15-30 seconds at the most) that the picture clears right up.

but after reboot i ran "gps test" for 5 mins, and it found 1 more sat, total now at 13, using 9-11.

then opened up maps again and got a lock right on accurate to 5m, gps test says 15ft.

Which I found was easy enough to work around:

Back up build.prop

Replace every instance of "GT-I9000" in it with "SGH-T959"

Save the file, reboot

Run the GPS Restore app & let it do its thing

And finally switch back the build.prop & reboot again.
