I was using Hulu with the flash player hack, and it was working beautifully. I have been running the nightlies for a while, and I can't tell what changed. But now when I try to use hulu, the audio is so slow the voices sound possessed!
I found some users in the Incredible forum ran into the same issues when an audio fix for froyo was applied to their rom. But one user posted solving both problems.
Has anyone else run into this? If so have you found a fix?
Yeah I too have this problem

Go to Google type hulu hack xda developers then look for June 17th fix. Works great on my evolution no audio problems.

That's actually where I got the hack in the first place. I un-installed it and installed it again today, and I am still getting the same result. I even flashed back to a previous nightly build, the only one I had a nand backup for, and same problem.
I did find this in the incredible forum,
just add this extension to the URL at the top showthread.php?p=7712210, and check out comment #73
His solution seemed a little over my head, but would something like this work for us?

any simple fix for evos?
Did anyone ever get a fix?? I'm having the same thing
Try turning off dsp.
Sent on the go from my HTC EVO
Disabled dsp still a no go..it's weird the ads sound fine once it gets to the actual video it messes up ..thanks for trying. Any other ideas?
I have tried everything. There is an updated "fixed-flash" in the forum where I found it the first time. I uninstalled my old one, re-booted, and then installed the new one. Couldn't get it to work.
I tried using the hulu.apk, which is really just the Hulu bookmark widget from hulu.com. I tried running it through Dolphin HD, I tried it through the stock browser, and I got the demon voices almost every time. There were few occasions where commercials would come in fine, and one time the actual clip played with normal audio, but 90% of the time, I am getting slow audio.
It seems like in the droid incredible forums, they are discussing this more. I found this from a dinc forum.
This is how I understand it. Google changed something to the audio streams for Froyo. Apparently catering to a newer technology called stagefright I believe. But, this made Pandora, Slacker, and other audio only streams sound like an old record player. So, Google released a fix. Adrynalyne posted that fix early. But it seems that this "fix" only fixes the streaming audio for those music apps and sites. But it caused a delay in the flash audio from sites like Hulu. In regards to this, there was a droid incredible forum talking about a ROM called SkyRaider. I wonder if Cyanogen used the same fix.
"SkyRaider incorporates adrynalyne's audio fix, which was released by google, which as previously mentioned fixed the AAC streams. The side effect was that Hulu and other sites were getting "devil voice" audio. So basically you could either have one or the other, not both.
Prior to the audio fix was an alternate fix where you changed a variable in the build.prop. This fixed both aac (ie. Pandora) and did not distort the sound in Hulu. The only thing affected was a slightly lower quadrant score. No decrease in performance, just a lower score. Personally, I'm still using the build.prop because I don't care about quadrant scores and my phone works properly in all aspects. Again this fix is rather old school now so maybe a better alternative has been cooked up but it's what I've been using for quite a while with no issues. "
Does anyone with more experience than me know what that means? Can this be applied to the Evo?
There don't seem to be too many people interested in this post. But for those that are. I did try editing the build.prop file using a root explorer. It didn't work. I will post if I find anything that does.
Yea I've been trying to fix this for 2 weeks now..I even applied skyraders fix to see if would work crashed my phone..I keep posting and also no buddy seems like there interested in it..i would love tofix this problem cause now it's become a obsession..I've tried and have gotten nowhere..ill give 10 bucks to anyone that can fix this for me!

After researching this for a while, I've found the only way to do this is to disable Stagefright. Hopefully this won't be a permanent thing. Follow the instructions in the above link. Pandora and Hulu seem to BOTH be functioning properly on the newest Cyanogen nightly after applying this fix.
The Cause of this issue?
I thought I post what results in Hulu sound running slow for me. Hulu works great when I first flash MIKSHIFT v1.0 for the HTC EVO Shift.
When I start having the slow sound on Hulu is right after I do a wipe of the user data (System Reset). It does not matter if you do the system reset from within "Settings/SD & phone storage/Factory data reset" or if you run this from within clockworkmod recovery.
After the reset and installing the huku fix apx the issue with the sound appears.
So it seems that doing the reset is causing something to be changed that causes this issue.
Please let me know if anyone has found a solution for this.

do evos or android 2.2 in general support text input with bluetooth keyboards like this? if not is there a way to patch/fix it to allow them?
btw i mean latest ota as in fresh 3401 rooted unlocked, not regular stock unrooted locked
The answer to your original question about ota update and bt hid, I found the answer to be no. This is something I look forward too. Cm6 is the only Rom I'm aware of that supports bt hid and I tried it myself and it worked very good.
As far as the rest of your questions I don't know.

Just a quick question. Does anyone know if gingerbread youtube has been ported for froyo ? I mean we got the Keyboard and the music player. I've searched all day and haven't found it. I don't want to run the gingerbread yet because I'm a fan of sense(mainly because of tv out). So if anyone knows of a thread for a ported apk, I'd appreciate it.
I thought 2.1.6 was the version that was pushed out last week via update through the market.. same as in gingerbread...
I have an EVO 4G Gingerbread 2.3.3 and got the new OTA 4.4.651.1
Okay, I didn't do my due diligence and research (not like me) before upgrading to Gingerbread, and like lots of others found out too late that it was going to hose my Netflix and Full HDMI .... now thenew OTA is supposed to address the issue, but still have no luck with finding a Netflix app, and HDMI is a no go either.
I know I cannot go back to Froyo or root yet, so has anyone gotten any info on how the new update is actually making a difference?
Yes I am a NOOB to XDA, and love the YouTube video, but I would really like some input on these issues.
Thanks in advance.
hope this helps
full HDMI will only work with android 2.2 until a.Dev either gets root for 4.24.651.1 and we can use a custom rom or if the guys at teamHDMwIN update the program to work for.gb which they probably aren't.as all new phones HDMI mirror stock.ie Motorola photon evo 3d and g2x. as for Netflix its working. go to Google search newest Netflix.apk click the xsah- link and download mod 2. it will keep saying must update if you click cancel it goes to.your queue and streams like it was on 2.2 there is no update in market yet for tonight tomorrow do what I said.you'll be on. im new myself to xda but this answer was in a few spots.
give me a thanks if I helped you
Hi Folks
Pretty much a noob at all this roms and apk stuff, however when I got my HOX I was desperate to get Google Music on it. As I live outside the US I had to side load it, I think from an apk I got here.
My HOX hasnt been rooted or anything so still using the vanilla Android 4.0.3, and only recently thought about updating the music app (hadnt considered that the store wouldn't provide the updates automatically)
Music is at version 4.0.9.509.
I see lots of newer apks around for G Music, but most have indications that they are for JellyBean, but with no info on if this excludes ICS.
Can I update to recent versions while still in ICS?
If yes, should I upgrade incrementally, i.e. from one version to the next or can I just install the most recent immediately?
The site I have found for latest apk that has the most clarity is iapktop.com has anybody used this site before? is it recommended or have people had problems from it?
Thanks for any info, its much appreciated!
Seriously, nobody here can tell me this info?
Thought this would be real easy 1 minute answer for you guys running around with your mods and roms and whatnots.
I did try Googling etc for this info, but everyone assumes you already know such basic stuff
