Well... I am just full of questions right now. I am really loving having a standard Android style device but so far I'm not having luck with some of my core applications... Right now (after finding out I can't read magazines) I am looking for a way to watch Hulu Plus. I tried some methods of using Titanium Backup to restore it from a zip here on xda. That didn't work, still says my device is unsupported.
I have had some ideas about using the original build.prop that came with the Nook Tablet. I have gotten rather accustomed to ways of getting APKs that are not available to it.
Any ideas from anyone else would be helpful... If I can't get this to work, I'm thinking a rooted 1.4.2 device is fine with me.
Modified Hulu+ APK
This modified hulu+ apk will work.
Have you tried the stock APK from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23486852&postcount=3 ?
I don't have Hulu Plus, but the Netflix from that post works for me, while the market one has horrible A/V sync issues.
thanks for that thread link i had been looking for the netflix one and that thread had it for me!
Let me know how your apk Netflix performs, because on my NT I had the same experience as with the market one.
I actually changes back to rooted 1.4.2 on my Nook, the magazine issue is what did it. When CM9 gets further downnthe road, I may try it because there is a magazine app called Next Issue that works on Honeycomb.
Thank you all, for all the help, seriously.

The lite version works, just wondering if the full version works.
Full version working for me... I haven't tried streaming live data yet, but the basic functions of the app work.
Full version works for me. I was streaming a brewers broadcast yesterday.
Works for me. I have a hard time getting into spring training games though.
+1 it woks
Looks pretty cool.
If we have mlb subscription and our Evo's get internet with flash, do we need the app?
Can we watch live games without it?

I didn't see the mlb.tv option anywhere. I'm running CM7. For people who have gotten it working, are you using Nookie Froyo? Auto Nooter? I tried editing the build.prop on CM7 to spoof a Tab, but it didn't seem to work.
For the time being, I was able to get the mlb.tv website working pretty well through Opera on CM7. That'll do, if nobody can come up with repeatable steps to get it working through At Bat, but I'd love to be able to do it through the app if possible.
I'm running CM7 and the full version works with pitch by pitch and audio broadcasting. I also have a MLB.TV subscription and can watch vlive video on the Motorola Droid X. Live video didn't work on the NC. I got the video working through Playon though. Video quality is excellent over my wifi! Watching the cards game right now even though it's on ESPN.
Same here, playon works, DROID2 works, everything works fine but no video option. Running CM7 with the tablet mods. Thinking it's either the app detecting it isn't an approved device or something with flash.
Playon with CM7, video is working for me!
It's said to work fine with the verizon galaxy tablet. I think if we can make it think that it's that tablet, it might work. Is that the Build.Prop that controls that? Anyone know the build.prop string for the Verizon Galaxy Tablet?

Yeah, that's what I meant in my post above. I changed the following in the build.prop:
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion:2.3.3/GRI40/102588:user/release-keys
to
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-P1000/GT-P1000/GT-P1000:2.2/FROYO/XXJJ3:user/release-keys
But it didn't seem to have any effect. One thing that occurred to me this morning is that perhaps I should try downloading it with that build.prop in place (as opposed to downloading it with the original one, switching the build.prop, and then opening it.) Perhaps the market serves up a different version when you download it using one of the approved devices.
I'd love to hear from someone who has streaming through the At Bat App working on their Nook. Until I hear more info, I'm dubious.
I will give it a shot tonight. I'll trying changing it and then reinstalling it straight from the market. Will try using the apk from my DROID2, it has working video.
Tried both ideas out, no go.
I wonder if there's more of the build.prop that needs to be changed in order to properly spoof it as a Tab. Anyone have any experience in editing build.prop files for other reasons?
There is someone in the Galaxy Tab forums that clamins they got it working on non certified devices. I'll post if I can find out what he did.
Definitely report anything you find, jkabaseball. I've seen you posting in a few other related threads, and appreciate that you're as dedicated to figuring this out as I am.
Works great on Cm7. W/tablet tweaks, latest build...(has been working on last few builds) w/video, the Astros are Horrible Again, and Mark Texeira is still doing what he does best up in NYC...Go Yanks!

I got the CM7 w/ tab tweaks. You saying the video works on it from MLB At-Bat 11?

I didn't like the little notification toggle issues on IX so went back to VIII and now Netflix is saying there is a newer version that it must be updated to in order to work. The one that came with the Rom is the no device check, so I uninstalled and tried the other to at no avail!?
Do we have to mess with the build prob a bit to think our tbolt is a different device? I know when I did that, Netflix actually showed up in the market! So I'm guessing this may work... Any ideas? Thanks!

So... I made my device look like an incredible, went to market, installed update (because our tbolt GBs won't have Netflix in the market yet) after update installed to the "no device check Netflix .apk and the original Netflix .apk I get a little farther, but get an error about maybe my device being removed from acct (which makes no sense) or the device has been removed from Netflix. Wtf! Anyone else having Netflix issues?

when I tried to rip the Apk from my Inc it was titled com.netflix.mediaclient-1.apk
it didn't work on my TB running bamf2.0beta5. I did get com.Netflix.mediaclient-2.API from another thread in the general section and it works fine.
It might be the emulation of the Inc that is getting you an incompatible apk from the market.
I ran across this post today about how to get the Hulu Plus app to work on an unsupported device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260713
I'm wondering if someone that is rooted can test this. If they also have the custom gingerbread rom for Archos it would be interesting if it could be tested. I had to send my Archos in for an RMA so I can't test this.
From reading this I think that part of the workaround is because the application backup contains the application data in addition to the application itself.
------------
Well got my Archos back, so I decided to test this.
If you have a rooted Archos and restore this using Titanium Backup you can use the Hulu Plus app. Note this is really only useful if you have a Hulu Plus account.
When I have time I'll try this in the Gingerbread image, but that might be a while.
Well as most of you know there's a significant difference between the Market Netflix and the Netflix included on the tablet. I don't know if it's just me but my audio is out of sync since loading CM7... and this is the Alpha Final version.
Is there any way to load the stock Netflix onto CM7? And if not, does anyone know why my audio would be so out of sync and how to fix it? Thanks in advance.
do what the dev below says
the dev has spoken?
Here are stock netflix and hulu+ compatible with CM7 posted by @Goncezilla.
PS: install them normally do not move them to /system/app otherwise they won't work.

Hey, thanks. It still has that stupid update popup, but the videos seem to be in sync now.
I tried this and unfortunately the videos are still out of sync; I'm going to check out the cm7 support forum during the week and see if anyone has any ideas since the dev, celticwebsolutions, is on vacay for now.

Anyone else having issues with the new Google Play Market? Literally every app I open up reads as incompatible with my device. Is this the case for anyone else? I'm currently on Vegan Froyo... is this just an issue for this ROM, or is it with all roms? Personally its becoming incredibly frustrating; many of my existing apps don't update, I'm forced to scour the dark ends of the internet for apks of paid apps I already own.
I tried the Market fix.. but that seems to have made issues worse. Any hope??

What apps fail? Give some examples so that others can
tell you if they work on their Vegan Froyo. Apparently
tapatalk works for you .
What is "ro.product.device=" in your /system/build.prop ?
A bad value/corruption there can cause incompatible messages.
I am on TNT Lite, which a Froyo distribution, and Google Play
works without any problems.
This is when an old CWM backup might have helped. Do you have any around?
My latest magic bullet for Froyo is "Fix Permissions" from CWM.
Give it a shot if all else fails.

I also am having a ton of issues with the new and "improved" google experience... the playstore will not load at all on my gtablet. I am running gtabcombover and really like the ROM... it was flawless until the market went stupid on us.
as soon as i try to open the app, i get the "accept" button but before I can even push it, the thing FC's and no matter what I cant make it even initialize. I am really hoping there is a painless and simple fix for this mess. And even more hoping that google hasnt completely cut all rooted devices out of the loop!
any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
I'm having the same problem as the OP, except I'm using Roebeet's TnT Lite Froyo ROM. I've also tried the Market fix with no luck. Any ideas for solving the problem would be appreciated.
Every app that needs to be updated comes back with a "incompatible with your device" error. Market fix didn't make things worse for me, just didn't help much. I'll have more time for experimenting over the weekend, and, will post if I find an answer. Hopefully it's not due to Google Play seeing it as being a rooted device.
It's probably not because the device is rooted. I am running G-harmony and play works fine for me.
Google Market updated itself to the Google Play store without any problem on both VEGAn-TAB 7.1 and GtabCombOver 3.4.2. I was also able to update all of my apps as usual.
I'm using cm7 rc1 and market is hosed. I have tons of paid apps that are "incompatible" and wont update. I tried build.prop edits but nothing is working. If VeganTAB 7 is working I may switch back to it. Was using beastys rom and Google play made it so half my apps wouldn't update that's why I tried cm7.
Update:
VeganTAB 7 works great with Google play and all my apps updated.

Try this suggestion out the next time around, instead of resorting to installing a different ROM.
Google Woes 2
I have a rooted G-Tab with Calkulin’s ROM v1.1 and clemsyn 2.6.32.9 kernel. Everything was running great with no problems. Google changed to Google Play and something has happened with the authenication. Downloads fail (all of them) and the Market fix does not work.
Gtab using Flashback 10.3 Google play
Similar issues here as well, My apps are updating ok but when I go to open Google Play to search for an app it crashes/forces closes. Been searching threads and found none that give clear fixes for this. THANKS GOOGLE!!!!

If you know how to edit the build.prop you could try to edit the line for the manufacturer replace what's there with Samsung just remember to make a note of what was there to start. It worked for me but I'm on the DRH ice rom you you may not see it in the overall search but in you put in the name of the app you want it should come up and allow you to download n install. REMEMBER IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE DONT DO IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE COULD CAUSE YOU TO NVFLASH AND REBUILD FROM START HAVE BACKUP. TRY THE ONE IN THE CWM ROM.
there is a modded market available now thanks to the people here on Xda
