Hulu plus just added official support for the thunderbolt but upon running it I was immediatly hit with a device not supported error
I'm running Cm7 rc 1.2 any suggestions?

Ditto
Same as well. Latest CM7 on latest OTA radio.
I can't provide much help here... Running CM7 RC 1.2, latest radio. I'm not having any issue.
Same issue here
I am having the same issue, Hulu plus says the device is not supported. I found a different flash.apk from another forum that said it would get hulu to work, but no dice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
it probably doesnt detect CM7 as being a thunderbolt. sorta like we had to trick the netflix app also. it runs on mine running BAMF sense 3.0 RC5 but force closes. I am thinking some hack will be needed to run netflix and hulu+ both.
Wow what BS! I want to try it out to see if I can just ditch Netflix since they are screwing everyone!!!
Idea: What about modifying the build.prop to make the device name match what it says stock?

I will try it and let you guys know I just don't know what the device name is out of the box. Was it Thunderbolt without the capital B or was it the AD600blahblah lol?
now sure lol
It's ADR6400L I'm going to try now.
Nope still says unsupported device.
Anybody know what had to be done to allow the netflix app to work on CM7?

The Netflix app works on CM7. However this is for the new Hulu Plus app.

I know this is hulu. Just seemed like its having the same problems running as netflix did at first. Thought it might be the same kind of device check feature that had to be bypassed.

im sure there are other ways it can check to see what "phone" you have. liking missing libraries or something.

Yeah hopefully someone can figure it out so we can rock some Hulu!
Its because we are blocking ad and modifying the hosts file.
you need to have adfree installed and hit revert to repair the hosts file.

I am running it on my stock wifi Xoom and it works, although is sluggish at time. I did not need to do anything special other than install and open. It will hang occasionally, but works more often than not.

Working perfect on mine too. Any way to enter my ipad registration data to continue the subscription beyond the 7 day trial?
So the official Netflix app just rolled out, and it works on our fellow HTC phones, the Incredible and Evo. For some reason, the Thunderbolt is not one of the initially supported devices. Any chance some devs can get this to work on our Bolts?
Edit: Here is the APK, thank the fine people over in the EVO forums.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13730645&postcount=11
This is confirmed to not be working as is, due to a DRM notification. There may be nothing that can be done at the time being, but we shall see.
Someone post the APK
Currently browsing the Evo/Inc forums looking for an APK.
Added APK to OP.
doesnt work here on CM... seems to start playback but the video doesnt work then it just quits altogether
Anyone get this working?
Good post! Hope someone can get it working on the thunderbolt.
Sent through the interwebs.
Yeah, I am assuming it won't work as is. Hoping the devs have some sort of magic up their sleeves that can fix it.

Getting the same thing on the stock TB.
Also getting a notification about a License required for DRM.
sounds good to me! can't wait to test it
I would love to see some Netflix on my TB. I don't know if the apk will be any good to modify since Netflix servers may just be checking the client's device info.
Can anyone confirm that the apk posted is different than the leak? The leaked version I have is 1.01 build 740558.

Mind you my tech/coding know how on Android is limited, but if the drm files can be put on our devices can we trick it into thinking its a different phone al.la the htcsense.com mod?
Of course that all depends on what it check to see if its a compatible device.
here is the apk

App installs fine. But it doesn't seem to stream the movies. It gets a little farther than previous apk files. It shows like the movie wants to play but then it goes back to main menu. Then something came up on my notification bar saying drm license required. I tried it both in 4G and wifi.
Hopefully it gets ported to the thunderbolt soon.
I know ya'll got some great dev's over here I've been keeping an eye! Lol

i can play about 5 seconds of audio (no video) then it goes back to the queue. it doesn't quit. it doesn't give me any error message about DRM.
Don't kill me over the piracy in technical terms of what i'm about to say but can we pull the DRM file from a Evo if it's a file, somehow merge it with the Apk like a Patch? or can we put it on our phone in the Drm location?
Those of you guys that have tried this on the T-bolt... what ROM are you on?
I know for Das Bamf they removed the DRM APK's that may be required to run this app. I think some other ROM dev's did this as well.
Are any of you on a stock ROM no de-bloat or anything? Maybe the DRM APK's that were taken out are all we need to get this running.
im on Das Bamf and get the DRM message
Same here... somebody from one of the other posts is supposedly stock rooted so it's not looking good without some dev work... only time will tell

No luck on VirusROM either. I don't get the DRM error, but it does start briefly then go back to the menu
T-Bolt Rooted Stock Sense, bloat removed with root explorer, same DRM issue. Something using Root explorer i noticed. In the Manifest there is a line of code saying Debuggable = false, if we change that to true, maybe we can have the app Debugg for us and it would help us find out what it's looking for?
i was running thunderrom and i had no streaming, I changed to CM7 and it would actually look like its gonna play. I did get sound but nothing played and it went back to the main menu after 5 sec

It's a HTC based app, doubt Moto would be supported on any device.
So I downloaded netflix from the market, and it says in the list of supported devices that the HTC Thunderbolt is one. Now it does install and accepts your username password, you can see your qeue and it attemps to play the vid, but fails with a DRM required message. any one else seeing this? if you search for it it will not appear, but if you select apps, all apps, free apps then scroll down its listed. click install and try to enjoy a mostly usable app.

it will never work on stock or rooted froyo for the thunderbolt (at least not without netflix directly supporting it). person that said it did on that forum is full of it. amount of effort to make it work would not be worth it. GB will be out soon and nearly everyone has it already on here. Anyone who wont root to get netflix obviously doesnt want it bad enough

Netflix does NOT need GB to function, it appears as if it needs it for the TBolt but not overall. That being said they made Droid Bionic support available so take everything with a grain of salt. Maybe GB will be coming soon and rather than fix issues with the TBolt again soon they figured set it up for GB and users can use it then (and root users now ).

I just installed Netflix on my stock TB & it works very well. It was a little glitchy for the first 3-4 seconds, maybe 5, but after that, clear as a bell. No complaints here. About damn time...
Netflix app was just updated again!!! Everyone that had issues before try it out!
Yep update seems to fixed the play back issue.... WOOT!
Yep, confirmed working here too. Stock Froyo unrooted, latest update.

I never understood the appeal of watching netflix on a cell phone. I tried it a couple of times & never finished the movie. Tablets & netbooks are much better suited for that job, imho

I'm getting tired of the slow scrolling and choppy behavior of apps that shouldn't be. Here is the Netflix app, latest, I think, that I modified to be optimized for Honeycomb. Basically just improves overall app performance.
Enjoy. (attached)
* (You will probably have to uninstall your current Netflix app to try this)
* Updated to Netflix version (360) from the market, released for Honeycomb officially on 10/19/11.
cant install...but I can download it...
You might have to uninstall the old version first.
Works great! (Yes, I did need to uninstall the previous version.)

I'm scared to login as well. The login bars arent misaligned like the account stealing Netflix APk reported to be floating around but I'm still nervous. Has anyone tried this? I'm sorry I'm questioning your work, it probably is fine and a great job done, you just can't be too cautious these days.
