Has anyone gotten Hulu/ Xfinity TV to work on the Prime? I've updated to ICS with no problem, just wondering if Hulu is working. If yes, is root required? Maybe I should just chill and wait for a Rom?
Thanks guys.
Xfinity TV seems to be working for me. Just tried changing the channel and it went fine.

I should have been more specific.....I was wondering about watching tv and movies over Xfinity website, like Hulu.
To watch hulu.com you have two options:
Buy flash video browser ($2) from android market
Or
In themes and apps there is a hulu flash mod (root required) , I had this mod working on hc but ics upgrade borked it, gonna retry later tonight and see if it works

Thanks for the input...I bought the Flash Video browser, but it does not work with the Xfinity website.
ok update: the hulu/flash mod in themes and apps section works! (need root)
went to hulu.com and vids play,
i have dish which uses slingbox app so cant test xfinity.

hi thanks iv already tried that, the problem with that is it force closes on me when i switch to the audio edit part and then try to go back to the video.. also it doest let you remove the sound from the origional video like the movie maker does in galaxy s2.
Just installed Andromedia Video Editor, but unistalled it straight away as it was picked up as a threat by TrustGo Security which advised that it could read your phone book, change your browser homepage and create shortcuts without your permission.
Have to say, I love the fact I can get free apps through the Play Store, but why do the app creators have to let themselves down by building crapware into the app? Stuff like that actually makes me want to pay,
there's video maker which is free in the Samsung more services app

Is it or does the new version of Allshare app blows in comparison to the old one (S2)?
I'm assuming I'd have to root and deodex my phone in order to copy the old one?

Agreed.. I want the old AllShare back! I tried pushing the apk, but it only starts then FCs. :crying:
Here's a couple of the bad things I've noticed:
The new one is not backwords compatible with the PC version of the Allshare app, therefore installing another web based app
Any video I stream from the phone has to buffer every 10 seconds, unlike the old one, same video, is silky smooth with no hicups
I can't browse by folders!!!!!!!!!! I have scroll through hundreds of videos!!!!!!!!
How would Twonky compare for DLNA streaming?

I pulled the Dlna.apk (allshare) from my sgs2 and it seems to work fine. Only problem is its hard to see some of the fonts for some reason. Still usable though and am attaching it here in case anyone wants to try. Just copy it to system apps. No force closes for me and yeah you need to be rooted. I felt the same about new allshare so I use the old version
Oh and the other issue is your media server will see your device as i9100 since its from that device

They must have made changes from Epic to SGS2 if the epic apk didn't work.
Also, I just realized the other day that you can go into More Settings -> Nearby devices -> File Sharing. You can also share that way. However, playing with it I am not able to stream MKV container videos to my TV. Whereas with the Allshare App I attached above works no problem. You can stream MKVs without issue. The only issue is that allshare is hard to see because of the white theme and the thumbnails look a little pixelated. Its works fine though
Yeah, I miss original Allshare too. I can't seem to find my Onkyo Receiver to ouput to.
Hey guys, I've been trying to get my MHL adapter to work with no joy. It worked AGES ago for a bit but it hasn't in a while.
I plug in the USB power, and then plug it to my phone, and then plug the HDMI in. If I do this while my S2 has the screen on it reboots...I have to have the screen off to prevent this.
Once I've plugged it all in, the lock screen comes up on my telly, but the cursor doesn't blink. When I get past the lock screen, the image on my TV doesn't update. If I start playing Vice City, the intro videos will play, but when it gets to the menu screen the image freezes on the intro. If I click past the intro vids, the image freezes on wherever it was in the intro video, on the TV, while working fine on my phone. If I start playing the game, sound comes through my TV speakers but the video remains frozen.
I've tried different ROMs, and I've read every post I can find on here and tried plugging all the bits and pieces in in various orders but nothing seems to work.
Any advice? Thanks.
Did you try stock rom?
Sure have. What I've figured out is that video files which use hardware decoding will work - they will show on my TV properly with sound. Soft-decoded videos, and any app or menu screen or anything else, will not.
It sounds like you're not on a stock rom as this is exactly what happens on non stock roms videos are the only things to play.
Try moboplayer, when I was on 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 stock rom all videos work fine(no matter if soft or hard decoding).
Now Iam on 4.1.2 leak and I have similar issues.
right, 4.1.2 leaked is bugged like hell when it comes to mhl. hope stable will be good.

I'm on the 4.1.2 leak and mhl is working just as well as in ics
New leak is confirmed working.
I use Neat ROM, works fine there.

On my GS3 I could not play movies or TV I purchased through Google play on my rooted phone. I was running a custom stock ROM.
On the Note 2 I rooted and have not installed a ROM yet, and I am able to play the movies and shows I bought.
Cam someone confirm if play TV works that is using a custom ROM?
I am wondering if Google permits this now, or if it has to do with me being on a stock ROM, or something the Note 2 has different than the GS3 that the app might not recognize causing it to fail and throw the error.
Thanks!
