[Q] netflix requiring update but wont work

DROID x gb.595 gb yesterday netflix worked fine but today I open it and requires an update to continue. I hit update and I think it tries to go to market to get it but doesn't find it and fails. So it wont run without the update. Anyone else having or have found a fix?
EDIT: I Found a temporary solution. I uninstalled it then reinstalled it and it works for now

I am having the same problem. Uninstalling did nothing form me.

Try using this install file. http://www.mediafire.com/?4xwncz7doz475tj

Not sure if it will happen to everyone who updates but when I installed the new file it worked fine up until I was going to start streaming a show then it told me Netflix was deactivated on this device. My buddy with a DX also had same error.

I'm new here. Just came from the fascinate forums. I found this one earlier today and I watch boondock saints 1+2. Works flawlessly, I'm currently on stock (rooted ) 2.3.3. I had my buddy download it on his stock 2.2 and it worked for him. So..... here it is.

there's a newer version floating around since the old one won't update.
Search for it on DroidLife that's where I got it from and it works now.

The newer version is at this link

There is an application that allows you to save Tubex youtube.
Even without flash, is it not faster than the original application?

Hulu Plus

Just wondering if anyone has tried out the new Hulu Plus app released yesterday. Evidently, the Inspire is one of six devices currently supported. However, it's not working for me right now on GingerBeast. I'm guessing maybe the app is expecting Froyo and doesn't like the taste of Gingerbread.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App

Same here on CM7 nightly, changed my build.prop to reflect an Inspire 4G but still getting device not supported. I think this is similar to what happened during the whole netflix thing where phones on custom roms w/GB wouldnt work ><

I saw an Engadget article this morning about Hulu Plus, see my Inspire as one of the accepted phones. Rush over to the market to download, but when I went to run the app I get the error that it's not compatible?
Running MIUI, so I'm thinking maybe cause my phone is showing as a DHD?

Same here. Inspire 4g, rooted, running cm7.. Sigh, more waiting..

Works just fine on my NookColor CM7.0.3 / Gingerbread 2.3.3 (running off external SD card). The nook color has been modified (in model / manufacturer only) to appear as a Nexus S though. However, I did that before now to get the Netflix app to work earlier. So, I made no other changes, I just installed the APK and it worked. It refuses to video streaming on a Froyo device, I have.

Now this I don't understand, I went and edited the build.prop so my model name shows as an "Inspire 4G"....but it's still not working
Perhaps I need to reinstall?

The nook probably works because the nexus S is supposed to be GB, officially the inspire is froyo

It's not related to the model name in the build.prop. The GingerBeast build.prop has "Inspire 4G" as the default model.

Does this app require flash or did they leave that out like Netflix did in their app?

Not working for me and I'm running Honeysense. :/

not working on inspire ace either.

I've tried it on Gingerbeast, the Ace_Cingular_US_1.84.502.11-Radio-26_06_06 _30_M posted by attn1 a while back, Honeysense 6, and latest LeeDroid both with and without Fenny fix.
No go on any of those with Hulu+.
In the main Hulu+ thread in the Android Apps forum, a couple people claimed it worked for them on the Inspire. I assume that is on an unrooted, pure stock Inspire. It seems to have worked for some people on other rooted devices though, so I don't think it is root that is throwing it off, but who knows what it is.

I'm stock rooted, running attn1's stock Ace_Cingular_US rom, and it is working fine on my phone.

Are you referring to the ROM attn1 posted named Ace_Cingular_US_1.84.502.11-Radio-26_06_06 _30_M or what comes with the hack kit?
Are they different? Ace_Cingular_US_1.84.502.11-Radio-26_06_06 _30_M did not work for me with Hulu+.
Edit: Actually, I used Ace_Cingular_US_SL_1.84.502.11-Radio-26_06_06_30_M_PD98IMG.zip from same post that has Side Loading enabled. Wonder if that's the problem?
Edit again: And does your ROM work with Netflix too? Did you install anything special for that? Thanks!

I flashed the one with sideloading enabled. I have Netflix installed to manage my que. The video streaming does not work for me and I have not attempted to install any fixes to get it to work. I am bone stock, just rooted. If you tweaked to get Netflix working, it's possible it may have Hulu broken.

Hmmm. I installed the ROM fresh this morning, but Hulu+ wouldn't work for me after downloading it from the Market.

Hmmm, idk. The file is actually a package of rom and radio and supposedly wipes all data when flashed. The Inspire is listed as one of the devices that is supported, so there is no reason it should not work on the stock Inspire rom. Did you do a manual wipe and clean before flashing?

Works on my stock inspire

Just tried wiping with FULL_WIPE_1.3.zip (the ext3 version), then installing the RUU build via hboot with the PD98IMG.zip. Did nothing at all after that but add my Google Account and download Hulu+ from the Market. Hulu+ still has the can't do video on this device message.
Frustrating. Did a force stop on Hulu+, cleared data, and I still get the message.
Giving up for now. Hopefully, smarter hackers than I can figure it out so we can run it on any ROM.
I tried the TPC mostly stock ROM also and it failed there too. I tried Honeyogen, not expecting it to work, it didn't.

Skype with Video

How soon do you think it will be before Skype with Video gets ported over to the EVO? The Nexus S guys already got it...

I want this too...

I think its as easy as tricking the system into beliving we have a nexus s just as it was for others when the netflix released for only certain htc devices.
If we could just get the nexus s build.prop and change our device name to what theres is i think it would work. anyone have a friend with a rooted nexus s and rootexplorer installed to check it out and post the device name ???

I'm no expert but I do not think it is that easy. If it was it would have been done back when the one for the thunderbolt came out. There is already a thread for it HERE (not Evo specific). If you look at the last page or 2 it is referencing the one that was just released.

Looks like someone confirmed this works on the evo. I did try making a call myself but the other person didn't answer so I cannot confirm it works 100% but it appeared to work fine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708&

This is working on my EVO. Someone posted a patched APK. I think in the Nexus S forums. Anyhow, works on EVO Shift, S, S2 etc.
I never made an actual video chat but the window loaded up and video was showing via the front cam.
Try it out...

I tried this but the other person couldnt see my video. I could see ny video on my screen but when they enabled their video, mine went black and they couldn't see me.

Can someone please upload the apk? I can't download that rar from my zoom. Thanks.

I can comfirm this patched apk works with video !! I have been waiting for this a long time !!

in the android market, download a file manager and then extract it to a folder on your android phone... and then the apk will show up and hen install it.
sorry this is a reply to qpstatus

skype2_0_45.rar worked for me. One thing though is that until I updated my Mac client to the dreaded 5.1 (user interface fail) from 2.8, video was not working -- when the call started, the video button on the Mac side would actually get grayed out. 5.1 works just fine. Makes me wonder what version is required on the Windows side to be compatible with the Android client.

That doesn't help. The issue is that when I try to download attachments via XDA from my stock browser on my Xoom or Evo it won't download successfully. The download gets to 100% and says unsuccessful.
For some strange reason it does let me down .apk's successfully.

Force close on Evo 4G.. "The application Skype (process com.skype.raider) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Boo :/
*edit, I just read that video chat only works on 2.3(?).. sorry, but I'm not changing ROMS just to use Skype*

Having issues with video calling - my front camera is not picking up any video. Tried lowering the quality and connecting 4G,Wif,3G all with no success - it's just a black screen on my end - and the spinning circle on the far end.
Anyone have any suggestions?

empty zip?
I seem to be haveing the same problem as gqstatus0685. The zip seems to be empty cannot extract anything from it... running latest stock odexed sense rom likely user error will keep working on it. let me know if anyone has any solutions..

Here's a link to the direct .apk -- just download and install.
http://rootmydroid.evoboxes.net/pulser/VillainROM/SGS2/skype_2_0_0_45-signed.apk

I can confirm this works 100% on my EVO running Kings 7.3 ROM. I have tried from EVO to EVO and EVO to PC.

How do I install this after downloading...sorry I've never installed a patched apk before. Please explain. Thanks.

Just navigate to the file with Astro or File Manager and click on it. Make sure you have "Allow install from unknown sources" checked (Settings >> Applications >>). Should install after a double click.

I wonder if Cyanogen is causing my error?
EDIT: Flashed King's 7.3 - works great... Gonna try a few other ROMs to see what happens. At the moment Cyanogenmod's 7 - "update-cm-7.0.3.1-Supersonic" does not allow my video to go through. Will update with further testing.

[Mod] Flash Player To Watch Hulu for AND 4.X NO ROOT

NO ROOT REQUIRED​Hello all I just got back from overseas to find my Hulu + hack no longer works and Android has updated so much it does not include Adobe Flash anymore. The file system was so different on my Samsung G S4 Active running 4.2.2 I almost gave up on trying to get this to work.........well I never give up!! As you see in the video all you have to do is install it. I will still break it down.
WHAT I DID -
Almost everyone is familiar with modding the flashplayer.so file from AND to WIN. WIN only get's you to the Platform Not Supported screen. Well I took it to another level. I changed the same line to LNX 11,9,900,99 and the SWF line from 11.1 r115 to 11.9 r900. This yielded better results and came close to the latest player for Linux platforms. DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. Pages like Hulu or VEVO are checking the version of your flash player to determine your platform not the HTTP Headers. That AND 11.1 let's them know right off the back you're on android. Took a stab in the dark to figure this out. Maybe I shouldn't divulging this much but I want others to do it on their own. Shouldn't matter anymore since we will not get anymore updates for adobe.
**A note for those who are rooted who have a custom rooted rom with a custom kernel like me, I have Blackhawk kernel 1.8 for my Tab 3 7", the stock browser or any otherbrowser allows you to use this mod if it supports plugins. I'm guessing it will work with any stock browser in any of the custom rom that is rooted with a custom kernel**
Please read everything before proceeding !!NO ROOT REQUIRED (unless you had it preinstalled)!! Perform at your own risk. I am NOT responsible for your device!!​
If you had the app preinstalled when you bought the device you will need to be rooted to uninstall it from the /system/app folder. After you have uninstalled any previous versions REBOOT your device. I would do it two times. I had to for my Samsung Galaxy S4. Don't know why......
Stock Browsers on phones like my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active do not support plugins anymore. FIREFOX is the ONLY apk I found that works with this mod on none rooted devices. This is because Firefox specifically points to the plugins folder while others only call for webview permissions to allow plugins. Please let me know if the apk does not work on your device or build. Please try Firefox browser with this mod first to ensure it works:
1. Download my mod here: ICS_MOD_FLASH.apk
2. Make sure you have install from "Unknown Source" is enabled in settings on your device
3. Install mod and enjoy
Only if you are rooted:
Download and unzip, then paste the plugins folder on your device in /system/lib it makes the video playback on HD more stable. In the old stock builds this folder was already there. It's not anymore.
plugins.zip
Sites That Work Now With This Mod:
HULU
Worldstar Hiphop
ESPN
Yahoo
My video showing what I did

Can someone tell me if this will install on 4.4, if not I will mod it to do that.

It works on 4.3 build I confirmed no root.

Getting this on 4.4.2
Also changed the permissions on the file. I'm rooted, just got this.

Is that a Firefox browser? The only browser I found that works with it is Firefox. If you are and you have plugin enabled on the browser then its back to the drawing board for kitkat.

Forgot to ask but you did install my modded apk right?

Hi, I've been messin around with this, and for me dolphin didn't work, flashfox didn't work. Maxthon didn't work, of course Opera didn't either.
Found a couple more that do though- Photon Browser and Boat Browser. I prefer Boat because Photon's UI sucks, and is more intrusive(hey, do ya wanna upgrade at start up), but Photons user agent options are more handy. Both latest versions got from G play store.
Didn't try FireFox cuz of it's size, am low on data, n can't move it to SD, phones already lagging. With Boat and Photon can be moved, plus cache to SD.
Questions, I'm rooted and put modded flashplayer .so in /system/lib/plug ins/ com .adobe.... and is working. Why is there also these in /data/data/ com .adobe....? Can I go ahead and delete these .so's?
Sent From Above Using Xparent Blue Tapatalk

Do not delete the data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer folder. That is where flash is installed like on a Windows machine program folder. You'll notice the other program folder are there to.

Does ESPN really work on your tab? Saw the example of Julu just asking
