Hulu Plus for Android APK - Xoom Themes and Apps

I installed it on my Nexus One and then grabbed the APK with Titanium Backup. I can install it on my Xoom and run it, but it won't let me login, etc. because the device isn't supported. I thought I'd post it in case any of you know how to tinker with it to remove the device compatibility check.

They got hulu working in browser, Hope they can get this app working.

You would think netflix and hulu would have released a app for tablets by now. It would benefit on both partys as far as sales so why they havent yet is beyond me.... -_-

At a guess, because they're having to work with multiple vendors for hardware DRM because that's what the media holders require.
That, and JNI/C++/Android NDK developers with enough experience to do the necessary coding are extremely hard to find. We may be having to wait while each vendor ramps one of their developers up on the necessary technologies.

nope did not work on either Xoom or CM7 Vibrant

Thank you!! Thank you for this file. It works on my Incredible

What was your problem, did anything error out? I'm the one who wrote the article.
I used sed to make it easier (cut and paste) I could tell you a more manual way of doing it.

I got a device not supported error on the Xoom after applying the build.prop edits. I think there may be more we should be editing for this device.

I think you misunderstood the post (and I'm sorry if you did). This was just to make it show up in the Market. This wouldn't make the app itself allow playback if you got the error message.
Some devices do work that aren't supported (for example my Nook Color running CM7) so it makes me think that there has to be some way to get around the check, but unfortunately, that's beyond my skill set.

That makes more sense and I misunderstood your post.

Thanks for this. Will have to give it a try.

Worked for me too. Too bad we can't force the app to landscape.

I have no idea on how to use that script.
Could you guys back up the app with TB and re upload here?

This method may be a little easier for you. I tested it and it seemed to work just fine.
Directions:
1. Delete Hulu Plus if you have it installed already.
2. Delete any backups you may have of it in Titanium Backup.
3. Get Titanium Backup if you don't already have it.
4. Download this file and unzip it, there will be 3 folders in it.
5. Place all 3 folders in the sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder
6. Launch Titanium Backup and restore the backup.
7. Enjoy?
And of course I'm not responsible for anything that goes wrong and blah blah blah.
PLEASE NOTE: You can't use "Ad Free" or anything that modifies hosts for this, or the videos won't load.

Bruh, that worked perfectly. Thanks
Can we get hbogo the same way?

I just tried this and still got the "Device is not supported..." message. I'm running rooted stock 3.2. Did I do something wrong?

Did you make sure you removed all instances of previous hulu plus installs? I am running Tiamat 2.1 and it is working for me but I used Root Explorer to delete all hulu plus data before attempting the steps.

You might be interested in checking out Readers Hub and Zinio with it. The combination will let you subscribe to hundreds of newspapers and almost a hundred magazines. It works great on my gTab running VEGAn beta 5.1.

Pardon the newbie, but how do I install this? I tried renaming to an API, but while that brings up the normal install screen with permissions, it then won't install.

Do not rename it. Copy the zip to your gTab (I use my Download directory) and then launch it by selecting it and it will install. You must have set your gTab to allow for installation of "unknown sources" in your Settings --> Application --> Unknown Sources.
If you're going to be doing a lot of sideloading I would highly recommend you sign up for a free Dropbox account which will allow you to move files back and forth from any device that you install Dropbox on.

So, I already had that in settings, but when I go to "select it", ES File Manager does not give me an option to install. If I "double click" it simply navigates into the ZIP file. Obviously some simple step I'm overlooking?
I flashed it in cwm.

Same problem as renaming to an APK. It starts to install, then quits with no message other than "Application not Installed". I'm wondering if it is checking for something that is (or isn't) present on my G-tab.
I'm running Vegan 5.1 with the ClemSyn kernel if that would make a difference.
I would download it again then flash the zip in cwm. Maybe it got corrupt somehow.

Ad Free

Doesn't seem to work. I am rooted.
I've updated to the latest patches that are available in the app, rebooted as it suggests to do, and I still get ads in my apps.
Is this not working for Honeycomb yet? Anyone else had any luck with it.
ive been using it and its working fine for me.
Works fine here too.
Well, I just rooted yesterday and mine is not working either. I have tried on stock browser and other sites, and the ads are continuing to come through.
Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening and/or how to correct it?
I had the same problem, so I switched to the ad blocker in jrummy's DROID overclock app (-> extras). Works well.

Tried all that awhile back, and it's still a no go. Nothing seems to work.
Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
I use a hosts file instead of an app. Just rename the attached to just hosts copy the attached to /system/etc and overwrite the existing done (not quite you have to reboot). No app required. Use an app if you want I just don't see the need to and I include this in my ROM.
Hit thanks if this helps, if not then hit the no thanks.

It tells me I cannot paste the file because that is a read only folder.
I found out how to overwrite the file, and and it works.
FINALLY!
It's a not 100%, and but 80% of the ads are gone, and and that's good for me. Thanks for the assist.

I know this is the Xoom forum but anyone with a transformer want to give the APK a shot? Been interested to see how this app works on other honeycomb devices.
Does it have a .odex file it it too? This doesn't come installed on the Euro XOOM 3G. I tried copying it to /system/app and chmod 775 but no go.
Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire on the back of a Droid
has anyone got this working on a Xoom 3G Euro yet?
wont install on G slate
doesn't work with acer iconia a500 either.
it won't install without the .odex file, and even with it, it doesn't seem to work. Thread is a waste of time since it doesn't provide the "full" application. You think these .odex files are there to look pretty? They contain a lot of the application's functional code.

What steps must be taken to get this to work? I tried it on my transformer but no go; not surprising after reading your comment. Why the hell wasn't this included?
Well you could argue two things, first the op didn't explicitly ask for the odex, or the person who posted it isn't familiar with how this works.
Anyway, odex files contain the pltfirm specific compiled code for an application it is moved into a seperate file for the sake of performance.
I have experimented with this and it seems there are some certificates or something, possibly even libs missing. It wont install so forget about it for now until it can be deodexed.
I look forward to that day and think it's a shame rest of us didn't get it

Fixed Flash 10.2 for Hulu

I've modded the leaked flash 10.2 to work with Hulu.
http://www.multiupload.com/HUTOFN3O0A
Uninstall the other version before installing this.
You'll need to change your useragent to desktop as well in the browser. (see here).
This is largely untested, but should work. Let me know if you have any problems.
I'll try it. Thanks.
Just tried it and it looks like it works. Didn't get to watch anything due to being on vzw 3g and hulu said it is not fast enough for ads. Thanks tho!
As soon as I get to Wi-Fi I will reply back here on if it works successfully.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
It works great. For better performing video playback on hulu, go to http://www.hulu.com/widget/player instead of the main site.

You have to change libflashplayer.so to report WIN instead of AND. You can do this with a hex editor. I also tried to make a modified apk, which I posted in the other thread but I found it only works if you install the official flash player first, and it only works until you reboot and then you have to install both again. I haven't tested the one in this thread so I don't know if it has the same issue.
I think if you have root you can just replace libflashplayer.so and be good to go though. See my comments here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12038563&postcount=74

Who knows... If anyone feels like taking the time to re-create this fix with the files listed, it just may work. =\
