Can anyone play Amazon Prime Instant videos after installing Android on Touchpad? - TouchPad General

Can anyone play Amazon Prime Instant videos after installing Android on Touchpad?
I've tried the latest XRON and CM7. Both installed flawlessly without any
issues.
Unfortunately, I cannot seem to be able to play Amazon Prime Instant
videos, no matter what browser I use. (Dolphin Mini, Dolphin HD,
Firefox, Opera Mini, etc...)
The videos stream fine on my PC and laptop... and even on my Touchpad
when booting into the default webOS.
Any help appreciated!

Try installing flash from the android market first

Works for me with CM7, Hulufied flash, and Maxthon for Tabs.

I do have Flash installed. Other Flash-based videos play just fine.
(YouTube, for example)

Uninstall flash and install the hulified flash.

Use a web browser that has desktop mode.

There is an app pulled from the Kindle Fire but I can't get it to work on the Touchpad since their app checks for root and refuses to work on CM7. Besides for that it would work fine

I currently have the most recent XRON on my Touchpad.
The Amazon prime instant video issue was resolved
after I forced the removal of the built-in Adobe Flash
and Dolphin HD browser. After a reboot, I downloaded
the official Adobe Flash and Dolphin HD browser from
the Adroid Market. Works fine now...

How do you force the removal?

Don't have my Touchpad with me at the moment, but I think there's an
app called Titan-something... it's included in the XRON rom... it allowed
me to uninstall apps.

I tried that, but there is no.option to install from the marketplace. I'm stuck with no browser or flash now. Is there a way to force install?
Edit, just upload the API packages to your device and then you can install it.

[Q] Hulu, Netflix on Honeycomb

Hello All,
Has anyone gotten Hulu to work on Honeycomb? If so, which modded version of Flash did you use? What browser and settings?
I am currenly using Flashback ROM Alpha 5.5 (Android 3.0.1).
Does anyone have information on when Netflix will be available for
Honeycomb?
Thanks,
Paul
I have not tried it yet but netflix updated today to support a tegra 2 hc Lenovo tablet.
try it and let us know.
Do you know where I can find the app (.apk) to try this? It's not in the Market yet.

no sorry I do not
I installed the Modified Netflix app where the device check is disabled.
I am able to see Available movies, My Queue etc properly.
When I try to watch a video, I receive the following error:
Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. If the problem persists please visit Netflix.com (1005).
How about Crackle? I have the app on my G Tablet and it keeps saying it has been disconnected. What do I do?
Newest netflix update works on honeycomb gtab now

Great!! Where can I download it? Not available on Android Market. Unable to download (due to device type) on market.android.com.

Edit: I can not confirm if this works, as the app says overloaded and will not fully load on my gtab running GtabComb b3.2
Edit 2: It works! The video quality isn't the greatest but it works. woot

Crackle works on my CM7. But no go on Flashback or Gtabcomb. With the Flash from the market on the HC ROMs, I get only audio and with the hacked flash the app starts to play the video and then backs out, just like it did initially when the Netflix app came out.
I will try the .apk and let you know what I find out...thx
I am running gtabcom 3.2, puffin browser, and flash 10.3 from the market. It works great on hulu, not sure on nextflick.
Netflix Works on Flashback Honeycomb ROM Alpha 5.5!!
The video is a little blocky when watching the first 10 - 15 seconds. After the video caches a little, video quality is quite acceptable.
Here is the link to the .apk: http://www.multiupload.com/XTEWL8CLCZ
Awesome!!!
Can't get hulu videos to go full screen, but at least its working. Thanks for the info.
Gtabcomb 3.3 runs the market netflix app perfectly.
Sent from my GtabComb using XDA Premium App
if you do a search in the forum I think someone posted the netflix apk.
Hulu and Netflix
Don't have any experience with Netflix, but Puffin browser with Flash from the market will play Hulu videos. But Hulu videos are choppy for me. My 2cents worth.
It works!
I confirmed this app works on vtab GE edition. Thanks a bunch for the link from droidlife!

Hulu on the GTab

Is anyone currently able to watch Hulu either on the website or through the Hulu Plus app?
If so, what Rom are you using and what version of Flash?
I can get to the website and start the video but so far after it plays the first commercial the video will stop, the audio will play but the video freezes
OR
It will play until it gets to a commercial, it will play the commercial and ten never resume playing
OR
it wont even make it past the first commercial, it will play the ad but will then stop playing and get stuck on a black image...
Ive tried CM7, Flashback, Vegantab Ginger Edition (couple different versions) as well as multiple versions of Flash...
Having the same issues. 1.1bl, Vegan Ginger 7.1, Vgeezyflash.API 11.0
Having issues too.
Using the Flashback 10.0 alpha (Honeycomb 3.1) rom and can't get hulu or most flash items to load right/
If I click around and end up hitting play I'll get sound on hulu, but that's all.
I think it has something to do with later flash versions using Hardware Acceleration and the gtab not supporting it or something.
I've tried the stock browser, Dolphin for Pad, Dolphin HD and Opera Mobile/mini all with the user agents set to Desktop.
I've tried flash from these locations:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1077914
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076612
I always get the same result.
The websites I use to test are, newgrounds, hulu and a google search for "fart soundboard".
On Hulu I only get sound, on newgrounds flash items are just a blank spot and the fart soundboard will make noise if i click on it but I can't see any of the buttons I'm pressing.
I've read other posts of people saying the have got hulu to work but they fail to mention where the got the flash apk.
Get the PlayOn Mobile app and stream it as well as many others right from your pc to anywhere your connected to wifi, been using it awhile now and until we can stream directly from the site, this is a GREAT alternative

Thanks for the tip!
Update:
Using Opera Mobile 11.1 (with the user agent set to "desktop" in its settings, from this post and the latest version of Flash Player 11 from the Android Market get's flash based websites like newgrounds.com and my flash based eTextbooks to work correctly! So that's a decent enough work-around for my issues.
Hulu.com works better than with any other browser but still won't actually play videos.

[Q] Full YouTube website crashes browser

The stock browser crashes after attempting to load YouTube video via Flash on the full site. I have the latest Flash version installed and running Android 2.3.6 stock. I cleared Flash and browser cache, same thing happened.
Only YouTube videos crash. Everything from advertisements, games and full Flash sites do not crash the browser
Maybe its because you're trying to load a huge object (if its full HD +200Mb) in an android (limited) browser viewing the full site (not the mobile).
I suggest you open that videos with YouTube app and it should play without problem.
And you have the same issue when you use a different browser?

Haven't tried Dolphin as that browser is just a shell running on top of the default browser so it will crash regardless.
I can't get Flash to work on Opera Mobile.

Adobe Flash Player apk for Galaxy Note 2 (download link directly from Adobe)

UPDATE: December 13, 2012, Fixes Major 480p Bug, if you have the latest Android 4.1.2
Adobe Flash Player is not just alive and kicking, it has gotten back up, dusted itself off, and is ready to kick some butt.
The Galaxy Note II is future-proof when it comes to Adobe Flash Player support, although it is not officially supported. The apk installers will be available directly from Adobe, and they will keep being updated.
Step 1: Download the apk file below to your device and install when finished. (No rooting necessary.)
Step 2: Open up any browser, except Chrome.
Step 3: Enjoy.

Works well when streaming video in full screen..I have tested on boat browser, stock browser and firefox browser.
The only annoying thing is on note 2 when streaming, my device goes to sleep after 30 seconds when not touching anything while streaming. This does not happen on my galaxy S2 or note 1(the display remains on)

Interesting. I've never had the flash player do that on me, although I am having issues with youtube flash videos on 480p.
I think a lot of these problems are dependent on sites because they all have their own flash app. Also, are you on the stock rom?

Watch youtube videos in firefox (I have flash)

Hi, I've got flash installed on my phone and want to watch youtube vids in firefox instead of the app so I can block the ads. So I disabled the app but I just get a blank screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Well I tried on dolphin browser, and here it is how it is done:
1. Install dolphin browser from Google play and run it then close it.
2. Install latest android adobe flash player apk (Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.69)) from this page.
3. In your phone, Go to data/data/mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser/shared_prefs/ folder and delete "mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml"
4. Now open dolphin browser again ->settings -> web content -> turn flash player to ALWAYS ON... and wolla.. all flash contents are playable now. :laugh:
Thanks. But I wanted Firefox. .
*bump*
