no problem with the previews...but when you rent a movie, nothing plays...i tried rock player with it and the player just closes...i uninstalled rock player thinking it might play on the default media player but that was a no go either...maybe if you purchased the movie?
If this is the same one I added almost two weeks ago it's not going to work properly. Please see my thread below for more details. PLEASE DON'T PURCHASE ANYTHING UNLESS YOU LIKE WASTING YOUR MONEY.

hey guys sorry you can install media hub just for test purpose you can watch preview but you can no buy it, because you will not be able to see it.. I believe this is because to the firmware and the scrip movies.......same like Avatar you can transfer preview to any device and you will see it but no the movie same with the media hub but at least you can see preview movies..... we need to wait guys

Hey did you donwload the file to your sd card and then click on it after install on your phone if you have stock you will see 2 icons of media hub one will work the other not..... try both
willl this apk work well in galaxy tab? i have an euro galaxy tab but it doesnt have this app...
Only one way to find out. Install it, download a .99 TV show and see if it works. If not, it only cost you a buck.
Tried on my galaxy tab and nothing, just a black screen with the 3 list links, my account, movie store, and tv store with the new to the hub items across the top which all items are blank and none of the links work, disappointing, see I have a usa galaxy tab from t-mobile which comes preinstalled with a real awesome version of the media hub but I lost the hub when I flashed my tab to the euro firmware to enable phone calling and haven't been able to get it back since, we need someone to back up the media hub from a stock us galaxy tab and upload the file so we can see if it is possible to get it back

Using stock SIM
I was also getting a blank screen (or green screen sometimes) when trying to watch movies. Then I popped in the SIM card that came with the Tab (Broadband only) and I was able to watch movies. I don't mind switching SIM cards if I can have both phone functionality and Media hub. Try this out and see if it workes for you. I made sure to edit the Build.prop file and changed the sales code to ATT first.

now it says that they got an update, i click okay , then i go to the market , and then redirected to the play store , and it says nothing found , help plz ????????????????
I came across this app at the market that was just put up today called DroidLu.
This app will allow you to watch Hulu on our SGT 10.1 without needing any flash hack! It costs 99 cents I would have paid more for this since it made it possible for me to watch Hulu! Now 3.2 has come to our tablet previous hacks don't work.
I can confirm it works!
Currently on Tsk650 V5 GT-P7510
Note that Hulu only works when you run it through Droidlu app. And make sure that you have latest flash player 11

It's barely an app. It's very difficult to scroll on the progress bar, very difficult to adjust the volume. The worst part is that the return button doesn't take you to the previous page. So you have to start all over again when you click on the wrong button. If you hit the lock button, you also have to start all over again after unlocking. So, if you want to want the show from beginning to end without interruption, without any misclicks, without jumping forward or adjusting volume, this is the app you want.

I was able to track down the apk at the link below but I can't get it to play any videos
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-applications/183229-droidlu.html
Has anyone gotten this app to work on a 3.2 ROM? I've tried it on overcome 2.0 and Task 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 with no luck. When the video starts to load it just closes.
Any one else?
You can get hulu to work using the old method. You just have to remove flash, copy the old .so to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer, reinstall flash from the market, then use a hex editor to change the plugin variable AND to WIN. I am running galaxy task 5.3 and I just watched Castle without any problems.

Would you mind creating a new thread with a sticky how to?
My experience today:
Search the market for "DroidLu" and it will bring up an app called Flash Video Browser by Dan Lockard for just under a buck. I just found out about it on droidforum, installed it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works! I'm watching Modern Family right now!

Yep, just installed and it works perfectly. I'll give his FlashBrowser a try in a sec, because this is definitely worth $0.99!
EDIT: Spoke too soon. FlashBrowser shows as not compatible with my Verizon 4G LTE tab. I'll stick with the old DroidLu APK (linked above, working) and see if there's another way to donate to him.
I have the apk for the 3.4.4 market. I froze the market updater but when I install the Market apk within 5 minutes it updates to play. Is there a way to prevent the upgrade?
What's the big deal with preventing the update? Looks like exactly the same market with a name change to me. Just wondering what I'm missing and in no way trying to be a jerk.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
You dont want to stop the update because if you do, you will not be able to get apps or update current apps with the old market.
Anything else that relies on the newer market will fail as well. I doubt you could stop it anyway..
Install an older version of the Market and use Titanium Backup to freeze the Market Updater...but there's no good reason to not update.
The new market is great! LOL, it is pretty much the same. The only difference if you have a tablet and that allowed you to purches music through the app. Again looks pretty much the same. New name

personally the name change is annoying as all hell, google quit trying to program your brand name in my brain, when i want to buy and app or something i want to go to the market or to the store, not go to the google and pick up a new app.
every-time i'm in a rush trying to pull something from the app market i can't find the bloody icon because i'm looking for the market or in the old location on my app drawer, minor change i know but i have caught myself cussing at google when i needed to re-d/l my gps app after it crashed during a trip i as on a few days ago.
any chance of renaming the new app back to market without root?
Just use a launcher and if already do, just change the name duh..lol that's what I did ....

I also would like to learn how to get around using Play. The new terms seem to allow Google to read my sms messages and record the message routing. I don't think my correspondents would appreciate having their thoughts being part of Google's repertoire.

What conspiracy theorist cooked that up?
The only way to get around using Google Play is to not use android. What you're asking is the equivalent of saying you want to use an iDevice without the app store.

Memory needs > any update
I have a very good reason for not wanting auto-upgrades. Radio Shack misled me about the HTC Wildfire S and now I've got jack for memory. I have four apps installed, use only the native message app, and I'm lucky to have 25mb free. Anything less than that and the phone works as well as the Pony Express does today.
FWIW, Tandybot told me I could always install apps on the SD card. In theory, yes, but so few app devs code apps to work in that manner. Lesson learned.
kite edit: SNIP! No need for that kind of attitude around here, I'm afraid.

freedom don't work on updated market
So I noticed, that Samurai vs Zombies Defence is free today, I tried downloading and it would not let me download saying its incompatible, there are couple other apps which are known to be compatible but the app store wont let you download it, I googled and noticed there is way to change the buid properties, which lets you download any app.
These are changes to build.prop file and they worked for me, I have tested it on my note and I would request someone else willing to take a risk and test this.
Requirements
1.) Phone should be rooted
So first step is to kill the Google Play App and clear data from
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Google Play Store > Clear Data.
After this open Root Explorer and goto
System> build.prop
Now I'd suggest making a back up and keep it in the sd card, (if your using Root Explorer it will also make a backup)
In case system is not Mounted as R/W do so in root explorer from the top right hand side.
Edit the file and look for
ro.product.model =
and change it to
ro.product.model = SAMSUNG-Galaxy Nexus
In the orginial article this was changed to Nexus S, I tried that, but it dint work for my phone.
Before anyone use it, I'd request a brave soul to try this, I dont think this is big deal but some testing would help.
Thanks!

Thats strange because with the Saurom, it wont let me do it from the website or the phone, the install option was gone.
Mine works!
Biggest big dog there is, NOTE!
Having established that Google has NFI what's compatible with my device, I'm pretty keen to perform this hack (I have a Galaxy Mini; I guess I should call it a Galaxy S or something?)...
Only trouble is, I see Root Explorer is a paid app. Is ES File Explorer (or another free app) able to remount read-only partitions as R/W?
I can't find any documentation to help me understand its interface.
EDIT: never mind, found it in the options : )

hmmmm ok, well i saw that but skipped over it
because on all my other roms/including stock, i dont remember it being an app,it would just auto-connect
and it was always a system apk as well
let me go check it out though
It was excluded because CM10 has absolutely nothing to do with ATT. Or any phone for that matter. So unless somebody kangs CM10 and adds in an app, it's going to always be as bare bones Android as you can get.
Essentially, CM10 isn't ever a bloat removed version of any phones stock ROM, because it's build from aosp source, so the bloat was never there to begin with, and likely wouldn't be added in anyways.

I like that app as well. That wsa the only thing I didn't like about my ROM, so I did a nandroid, restored to stock, pulled that system app, and restored my nandroid.
Lucky for you and anyone else that wants it, I just happen to have placed it in my Dropbox.
Make sure to place it in /system/app (Don't install it like a normal APK) and change permissions to rw-r--r--
You will need to manually connect to attwifi the first time if you haven't already.

the system app one, like if you're at mcndonalds , will connect to it automatically (mcndonalds is one of the stores on ATnT wifi partnerships)
if you didnt have the app, you can still connect(its free wifi no password) but you would have to first open up a browers, read the agreement, and hit accept blah blah, before you can start using the wifi. again the system app skips all that and just connects you

It also skips all the payment info at some places that still charge for WiFi, so long as it's powered by AT&T. I wouldn't mind having this feature back as well, even though I'd rarely ever use it. Honestly, my cell is faster than the WiFi at any Starbucks or McDonalds around here. But I can see a use for it while traveling. Maybe download one of the stock ROM flashable zips and just extract the necessary apk, put it in /system/app and see if it will work that way. I'd try myself, but I'm a tad busy lately and already in trouble for all my downloading this month.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the one on Play is too bloated. I don't want that junk handling all my WiFi.

Well, Mr. Useless Retort, I was searching for this very apk and was about to download it until I looked at his stats. You see, the fact that a post is a year old doesn't make a lot of difference if it has information you need. You see, Mr Useless, that's why the forum goes back many years.
Note that my reply wasn't intended for him, it was to warn off anybody else who might think about downloading this.
See how that works??
I think you can get this apk from the market, or what I do is google for apks -- especially older ones when the market updates me and the update sucks. I haven't been burned yet.
