I've seen many posts about flashing this Hulu + Flash 10.3 apk but my issue is I downloaded an otherwise awesome ROM (Thunderstick GenII) and it comes preloaded with the Hulu app. To my dismay my device is not supported. I've tried reverting the old ad files with adfree but still no dice. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hulu working on touchpad cm7, and any other android rom or devices. Working on my archos 101,touchpad, Huawei s7 and vibrant. You must uninstall stock flash player if installed then install Flash player attached here. Also there's a Hulu app attached.
Which archos 101?
Thank you for the post. Does this work on archos 101 Gen 8? Or only on the newer Gen 9?

I too own a Archos 101and yes it does work on Archos 101 with custom rom installed like cm7 or others. But it seems to not play so good in the browser,browser crashes. Browsers I tried are dolphin,xscope,boat browser might work in others. Should use the hulu app attached for better results. Also make sure to change browsers user agent to desktop.
THANKS!!!! Works great on Touchpad but also on my LG Revolution. The app, not so much but works fine in Dolphin HD.
*Just an FYI, on any other device you might have to uninstall/reinstall Netflix.. had to on my LG Revolution anyways, TP was fine
reinstalled flash, didnt work. do i have to install the app too? tried it in dolphin hd.
Worked for me, I just need now to find out how to trick Hulu since I'm not in the US... (Is there another solution than VPN?)
Sine, you could try running through a US proxy. I do the same thing in reverse for Europe, so I can get the online broadcast of Top Gear.

It seems to work (at least on desktop browser), I've used this free US proxy list and this proxy checker to find one to test, I'll try on my TP tonight
Got it to work. Just have to click go to hulu.com from app. Doesn't work by just typing in address in dolphin

Are you using the stock rom or a custom rom? From my experience with the modified flashplayer is it works best on custom roms stock roms not so good or at all. Suggest changing your rom if using stock rom.
Just wondering if there is an update for this? Flash keeps trying to update on my phone and I let it once and lost Hulu so just checking..
Thx.

No there is no update yet for the flashplayer. Uncheck the automatic update option for flash in the market and use rom toolbox app to break market link. In Tom toolbox go to applications then touch the flashplayer until options menu appears scroll down and select break market leak, This will do until update.

FWIW, for those comfortable with hex editing, you can actually fix any version of flash, including the latest, to work with Hulu and Amazon VOD.
Uninstall any old version. Install the latest from the Market.
You need to be rooted (all of us on the Touchpad with the Cyanogen mod should already be rooted anyway) and go to the file /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so (make a backup just in case)
Either get the hex editor by Tuba in the Android market or copy the file to your PC and open it in your favorite hex editor. I use the app because it works and it's just easier without having to transfer files back and forth.
Open it up in the hex editor and find the ASCII value "AND_11" then change it to WIN_11 (note it's case sensitive so it must be all caps).
Make sure the change saves, so you must have r/w privileges in that directory if they aren't already set.
Reboot after you've verified the save took with the updated value.
The AND is for Android and the 11 is the version increment. It's unlikely, but if Adobe ever releases a version 12.* you will then want to look for AND_12.

I've been looking around for a few days now and can't seem to find it. Does anyone know how to get hulu to work on the Evo View Tablet? I've got it rooted of course and I tried to use the kindle version I can get it to install and load but it keeps giving me an error when I try to watch videos. Any help with this would be great.
Good luck man, I've been asking this question for a few weeks now, with no solid replies
I dont get it since Flyer owners have it available in the Market
Bah. What's the difference between the flyer and the view? Why would they release it for one and not the other? Lol, I bet someone here can get it to work on the view.

Got my HTC Flyer today and got HULU working.
Here is what you need to do to get it working:
1) Get root !
follow this guide here (thanks globatron)

2) After you have root access you can follow the guide to get HULU working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153196
In a nutshell:
a) make sure that you have root, busybox installed and working
b) download and install flash player 11.0.1.152
c) flash hulu-hack zip file from CWM
d) use desktop mode in the browser to watch HULU. I use Dolphin HD with mobile/desktop switcher plug-in.
I also had to install "Script Manager" from the market, navigate to /system/etc/init.d, select S98fixflash and check the "run on boot"

It works great on mine. I had it running fine on Gingerbread and right now on Honeycomb.
Do you get the message that device is unsupported? That would mean that you're not using the hacked version of flash for one reason or another. Once you get Hacked flash zip installed through CWM, try manually copying /data/flash/libflashplayer.so into /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/ using RootExplorer. Overwrite the old file. After that try running Hulu. If it works, but you're loosing Hulu after reboot, make sure that script is running on restart using Script Manager.
Yeah, something's not quite right I will double check tomorrow. Another note, are you running stock root? I wanted to get honeycomb on my tab but the ROM I'm running has been so stable and great.
Hulu on View
On the View, try Flash Video Browser. You can get it from either Android or Amazon markets for $.99. You must have Flash 11 installed.
Edit : No root required.

I'm looking a bit more at rooting via manual nooter on OS 1.4.1.
As of now, the Android Market is not working
In my hands, the BN shop is also not working. Books cannot be downloaded. (The reader does work, though, so you can shop and then download to your PC, then push the files in manually if you like.)
Together, those two elements not working argue against rooting 1.4.1 for anything other than study and development, I think.
- 1.4.1 installs on a device which had already been rooted (this device is rooted but not overclocked.)
- boot from a manual nooter 4-5-18 disks works
- after applying MN 4.5.18 and the APK enabler, the device booted. Root was retained and SU works fine (I was able to use adb wireless)
- install via ADB works
Other things to be aware of:
- this is not a Gingerbread release for the NC.
- the home button behavior is changed a LOT. Home Catcher for the Nook Tablet will also work here, though.
- the device automagically snarfs Google contacts if it's registered to a gmail address, it seems. There is no warning on that. I think that behavior is a Big Effing Problem.
About to try hopefully it works. I know I couldnt install update on 1.3 with CWM going back to complete stock and then update and then MN.
Yes, if CWR is written to your boot, you cannot install BN updates.
It might be possible to use a flashable 1.3 installer to write only /boot, reboot, then update to 1.4.1. I know there is a flashable 1.3, but I do not know where it lives.

Yeah I went back to 1.3 stock and then to 1.4.1 update.
It would be nice if some one conforms about Market
"It would be if some one conforms about Market"
Yeah, wouldn't it?
I'm figuring from the lack of screaming it's probably working.
Market is up. Some apps still missing. Having a bit of problem with Zeam launcher. Nook launcher is taking control.
Straight from my ICS i897 Sonic Screwdriver!!!!!
So from a rooted 1.3.1 you:
Use CWM to install a vanilla 1.3 ROM, then update to 1.4.1 via B&N download, then root using only 4.5.18? I seem to remember to root 1.3.1 you needed to root with 4.5.16 and then 4.5.18.
I have been able to use 4-5-18 without any problems on both 1.2 and 1.3.
You may not even need to install the vanilla ROM - you may well be able to install to a rooted device, so long as you have not meddled with /boot, either by installing a CWR boot internally or by overclocking.
My fast experiment this morning involved updating a rooted 1.3, then rooting that resulting 1.4.1.
Anyone check to see if it will still boot from an SD card, just want to confirm before update, but because it is still rootable I can always downgrade.
Edit: I am in the process of updating as I type this, I will post the results in case anyone else needs them.

Others have tested and confirmed, but that's not something they can change on this device with a software update anyway
Good to know, I hadn't seen it yet but my testing confirms this, thanks for the reply

In my case the Market runs but it's totally useless: I can't see my apps, it doesn't find most of what I want to install and when it does I can't install anything (it just goes back to the Apps menu). So it totally sucks since the B&N market is really lame!

For whatever reason, many Nook Colors that come stock with 1.3 installed just bootloop if rooted with 4.6.16, even if rooted first with 4.5.18. I can confirm this with a new NC purchased for my girlfriend's mom. Runs OK if just rooted with 4.5.18, except for it having the ancient market. Haven't been able to update the market yet, though gmail will update itself.
Updated to 1.4.1 (had to return to stock 1.3 to install the update, even without CWM flashed), using homecatcher to overcome the new "n" button "feature", but market is hit and miss. Was able to download and install Astro, but Titanium Backup doesn't want to download and install. I'll try sideloading it later.
What's the new n button feature? Is it possible to make a flashable update, like with 1.2 and 1.3?

If you press it once, it brings up the B&N "dock" that used to be at the bottom of the screen. If you press it twice, it brings up the B&N launcher.
Correction, I thought I was able to download Astro from market, but apparently I didn't. Now I've got no way to sideload apps, which makes this pretty useless...

ADB commands are your friend! Pretty much as long as you can enable ADB you can sideload with zero issues.

I realize this, but this nook is a gift for my girlfriend's mom, who lives out of state, and I know there's no way she's going to sideload everything using ADB... I need to get her a working market, even if I've got to go back to 1.3 and disable the update.
Ended up using 4.5.18 on my stock 1.3 NC. ADB Sideloaded in the Kindle app and a couple others and used the Nook App Manager to drop icons out on the main stock launcher page. I was really looking to add teh Kindle app so I could read all my purchased books on a single device, so I'm quite content. I'd like to see better market, etc but it's not a dealbreaker for me.
Just in case someone follows this thread, rooted 1.4.1 is working well now. manualnooter-5-12-18.zip does it for ya.
Market works. You can add non-B&N apps to the B&N app and home screens using Nook Color App Manager. Putting the Kindle app on there is no problem. Netflix, HBO GO and Max GO work. Hulu Plus refuses to run on the device. B&N subscriptions download and update the dock. B&N enhanced content (e.g. Wired magazine) work fine.
If non-techie friends and family want an enhanced B&N Nook Walled Garden experience, this will do it!
This ain't actually a guide but just a sharing of facts.
As of some time I always missed flash support in current Internet browser's for JB, and all the workarounds by installing a modified or really old version of other browsers like an old version of dolphin browser did satisfy my need of having flash BUT it was dreadfully slow or quite not like how it was when in GB or ICS and using ancient crappy browser's was increasing the pain of using flash.
And when almost all hope of decent browser experience with flash was lost, I came upon UC Browser and I happened to be in a site that required flash, and the browser gave me an option in the space of the flash video to install a plugin(please note that I had uninstalled flash player before, since I got sick of flash) , I was like "well whatever I tried every other ****" and when I clicked on it, it gave a toast message of plugin downloading and sure in a couple of minutes I was prompted to install Adobe flash player and after the installation the page refreshed itself and there was blue play button now and on clicking it the flash video loaded without any delay and that was the beginning of my best experience with flash in JB, so guy's why don't you try it out? Just go to Play Store and Install UC Browser and go through something similar like I went through.
Also note UC Browser uses a specific build of flash player 11 so uninstall flash player if you have it installed before doing anything above.
And yeah Dolphin Browser latest doesn't support flash in JB, Firefox detects flash but takes forever to load, Chrome never supported flash.
Edit : I recently found out that UC Downloader HD(the tablet version) doesn't prompt us for installing the plug in for some weird reason, so in that case use this version AdbFs10_V11.1.115.47_Android_pf145_(Build13022810).apk of Adobe Flash(which you can download from the Adobe website), or you can install "UC Downloader for Android" (intended for phones, and yes it works in tablets too but HD feels better) and follow what I did above.
