HULU does not work on my EVO

I am using the Two Point Two RLS5 rom and when I goto hulu all I get is a white.
Any reason behind this?
Thanks

I've always found it problematic to get working, and when I do, the quality sucks. I just gave up on it, and am going to try again next generation phone.

I'm guessing its because you are on sprint's "high speed dial-up" network. Try on wifi.

Did you install the hacked Flash plugin?
Did you change your UAString to a desktop browser?
How are you connecting?
Logcat?
DETAILS!

I rooted mines with Unleashed Ultra, Hulu does not work. But I just gave up on it.
anways i dont use m phone to watch much TV. I use sprinttv or tv.com

I got this... hulu is not supported on your platform?

[Q] Do apps get affected by going from 2.2 to 2.3

Hey guys (and girls?), I got my EVO 4G and clearly loving it running froyo. I am thinking on going to gingerbread but I'd like to know if apps get affected by that. Does it depends on the app or is it generally the same?

Generally speaking, no, they do not. Happy Easter.

Some apps are not yet compatible with Gingerbread. I haven't had any issues yet, though.

i've never noticed any issues. just make sure you backup apps with titanium backup, NOT SYSTEM DATA, and wipe when you flash over. may i reccomend cm7?

Ran into my first non GB compliant app the other night. I use the Xfinity TV app (Comcast Cable) and when I am on MikGinger it doesn't work. It automatically closes itself as soon as it starts too load. Then I saw some reviews and people said it didn't work on GB at this time.

Titanium's latest update makes it broken on gingerbread, but okay on 2.2.
They'll fix it soon, but until then, find a prior build and use it.

I'm running the 2.3.3 gingerbread leak on my Evo, have been for about a week now(since TMartin put it out on XDA) and so far all my apps still work. My Xfinity TV app works fine. I actually just set a recording using it a few minutes ago. But I have discovered that the front camera no longer works in yahoo messenger video chat. However I'm not sure if this is gingerbread related or not. I posted a thread about it in the general section to see if anyone else if having the same issue.

Really? Thats weird.The Xfinity Mobile app works fine, can set recording etc off that. But my Xfinity TV app, the one that changes channels, will close immediately after signing in.

Broken in what manner? My TB works great with the gingerbread rom I'm using (Salvage-Mod 1.21).

I have found that Orblive doesn't work. It doesn't even show up in the market.

The only problem I had when I switched to GB from froyo was TB wouldn't restore my txts but other then that I had no issues

[Q] Cyanogen and 2.3.4 GTalk Video Chat

My wife uses an unrooted G2. She likes using Google Talk video chat on her computer. She would love to be able to use it on her phone, even without a front facing camera. I've read elsewhere that Cyanogen has started incorporating 2.3.4 and Video Chat into the nightly builds for the G2. I'm hesitant to root and flash her phone with the current nightly build, since I don't to risk giving her an unstable phone that has broken other features she used to using.
What's the rule of thumb for jumping to a CM build in a case like this? Do you wait for a "stable" build to be posted? If so, about how long it take from the time they start incorporating the stuff you want into nightly builds before it becomes stable (a week, a month, etc)?

just do a nandroid of current rom then flash latest build anf give it a try, some builds are pretty stable aand have lot of fixes with current issues, if bad and have issue you can wipe and restore

Or use tango or fring... or search for the apk that has the updated video chat incorporated

I tried tango and fring, but neither of them work with the desktop browser version of google talk video chat. We've got the whole extended family on gtalk vc, so in order for video chat on the phone to be value added, it has to work with that. Thanks though.

Just root, download the google talk 1.3 flashable zip, flash with rom manager or in recovery, all done.
I haven't seen the zip in the g2/dz forums but I found it through google...

I don't think gtalk 1.3 will work on anything before 2.3.3. At least that's what I have been reading. I got it working perfectly on CM 7.0.2 by flashing the new gapps version.

Yeah I haven't used froyo in a while so I just assumed. Word

How's the stability of 7.0.2? Any significant bugs? Also, I see that 7.0.3 is now in the list of stable builds -- were there be any reason for me not to flash that instead of 7.0.2?

On the G2? I'm running #65 with latest (05032011) gapps with talk 1.3... Can't/Don't see a way to establish video or voice chat... I've checked the block for enable video/voice calls, but only can text chat...

I did push a new googleservicesframework.apk while trying an alternate method. That just gave me force closes when trying video of audio. I flashed the same gapps as you and it stopped force closing and I get two way audio and video.
I'm running CM 7.0.2 with pershoots kernel on a G2.
Jgariano,
7.0.2 is perfectly stable for me. No problems to speak of. I read the only change in 7.0.3 is a security fix, so no major changes.

Hmmmm, I wonder if I need to flash a googleservicesframework.apk as well... I don't have any options for video, and the audio link is greyed out, although it if pushed, it says 'calling' but doesn't really do anything. There is no video option at all, and when viewing my status from another g-mail account, it doesn't show the video camera icon.

I have the same 'problem' with google talk. Everything works fine except the video calling. I can't select it. (When i open talk and then click on my own name, there isn't a box i can check to accept video calling).

i have tried to flash it too,but gtalk disappeared in the applist
why?

[Q] Android Netflix App for A7?

Does anyone know if the new Android Netfix app will ever work on the A7? I installed it on my EVO and it is sweet! But the screen is TINY!

I don't count on it ever working,but I put playon on mine and it works pretty much perfectly.You can install it on your computer then you are basically steaming but you have Netflix, Hulu CBS,tbs comedycentral,syfy and the list goes on.You can try it out for a couple of weeks for free and then if you want to keep it they are pretty cheap and have several ways to subscribe,from monthly,yearly and even a one time payment for a lifetime subsciption.Anyway I got tired of waiting and got it on sell and haven't looked back.It is more than you can imagine and you can use it on PS3.Xbox,Wii,and several blueray players.Pretty much anything that is DLNP capable .
Anyway didn't mean to ramble but hope this helps.

There is a netflix app available without the checks and already signed. Most have said they can get it running in a gingerbread rom. I haven't been able to get it working on the A7's rom however.

I know that they won't allow it to run on devices that are rooted, but I think if you search the forums you'll find a modded apk that should run.

Thanks,
I had installed the cracked version on my Evo4G and Evo3D, and it installed on the A7 but would never work.
I always ignored the "there is a newer version available" message until I read your post. Works like a charm now... Resolution seems like it sucks a little, but that may have just been the movie I tested with.

Just down loaded from Market. Install and logged in. It works great!!!

Works great!!!

I updated to this version and it works well. I've noticed that the resolution starts out bad but rapidly improves. I am really happy with this tablet now. It pretty much does most things I want it to do. Only thing left for me to conquer is moving apps 2 external SD.
Thanks to everyone that has helped develop the mode!

Just wanted to make sure everyone is aware that you can adjust the quality of your stream through netflix. Just head to your account page on netflix.com and towards the bottom is a link to adjust the quality.

I've be seaching for the Elocitymod 1.42a, but haven't been able to find it. Can anyone tell me where I can get it or send a link? Thanks

On my completly factory A7+ I got netflix working only through an account on amazon
Still can't find way for un modified A7+ to get HBO GO
more to point. I cant get netflix audio (or any audio) through hdmi on my ~5 yr old Insignia HD TV, is it possible adjusting stream quality will solve the no audio? I tried it on a new 55" Toshiba and audio/video work perfect (and wow, a 3' tall angry bird is cool)
This has been answerd in old threads as, "some tv's audio works, some don't"
Any new fixes?
Anyway to put screen to sleep while still streaming through hdmi?

CM9 PreAlpha Streaming Video Issues

Not sure if this has already been addressed, but none of my apps work... Netflix, YouTube, hacked Hulu+. I'm guessing this has to do with HWA? Any help would be appreciated.
1st post sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium

the most recent CM9 has HWA built in... i would tend to think that most of those streaming services use Digital Rights Management (DRM) which is probably not working in CM9.

That's not the case as I watched Netflix on my CM9 tablet just a few weeks ago.

I'm having this same issue. Anyone know a fix?

if you're talking about drk.hd's CM9 kang for inc then if you used the camcorder fix that was posted, i've heard that it breaks youtube, netflix, etc. If you flash the ROM without the camcorder fix then you should be set. At least that's how I understand it. I'm still waiting for CM9 to have more custimization features before I make it my daily driver so I have been holding off on using this ROM very much but I have kept up with that thread and people seemed to have problems when they used the camcorder fix. I guess it is a trade off right now that you will have to decide on if you want to use it as your daily.

I'm currently on the new Nightly CM9 and Incredikernel HWA Beta 2 and, unfortunately, same issue with the hacked Hulu plus .. Sound with scrambled green bars only. However, YouTube works though, and canceled my Netflix.
Anyone out there up to removing the device check on the latest and greatest version of Hulu+?

I've been running drk.hd's latest nightly for a few days now and am loving it. Best ICS I've tried to date. Also using Incredi Beta 2. I didn't do the camcorder fix before install and can confirm what you posted. Haven't attempted netflix but youtube is working great. If they can work a camcorder fix this will be my new daily probably for the rest of my INC's life.

Okay, so I combed over the thread again and found that even with the drivers that were released recently netflix is broken for everyone using this ROM so I'm going to retract my original statement and tell you this: you are not alone. Many people have been asking/complaining about neflix not working in this ROM and unfortunately nobody has been able to deliver as of yet. My ignorance on the topic sprouts from the fact that I don't have a netflix account therefore I don't use netflix and haven't been staying up to date on this particular issue. I am sorry for the confusion but this should set you straight. The ROM does not yet support netflix or hulu playback to my knowledge. Perhaps in the next build?

For me, some of the playback is hit or miss. I might have to reload it a few times to get it to work but eventually things like YouTube will work and I never flashed the camcorder fix. I was also wondering if this is connected to the TwitchTV app not working as well?

So I am a complete noob, however, isn't the version of Netflix dependent on what device you have? I'm pretty sure Hulu is too. Which means since the Incredible doesn't technically support ICS/HWA (?) the apps don't either? YouTube works but it's version is solely based on the Gapps you install (which are made for ICS) and it works. SO maybe port Netflix and Hulu from another device that officially has ICS?
