First off I have searched to no avail. I'm wondering if there is a working Hulu apk available for the droid x. I had a dInc and had a rom that it was preloaded on and it worked flawlessly. I'm currently running Liberty Rom. Any help would be great. Thanks.
There's a way to trick your stock browser in thinking its a desktop browser and hulu would then work. Search for the thread as it worked but not great, but alas it can be done!

Yeah here's a link on modding your browser and flash to make it work. It works pretty good at 360. There is a link on the page for a hulu apk but it runs better in the browser for me.

Forgot to mention that the flash mod is for an earlier version of flash but it works fine on the latest version.

Does that flash mod cause bugs with other stuff? I'm eager to do this. I'd drop my netflix subscription and get a hulu one until netflix finally comes to droids.
Its worked fine for me without any issues but its always best to do a backup beforehand. The only thing is that it puts your browser in to desktop mode so you wont see sites in mobile view. It reverts back to mobile after doing a restart.

I actually prefer desktop view to mobile view so that is good.

The Hulu Plus app was just released. It says that only 6 devices are officially supported and the Incredible isn't one of them. I download the apk via droid-life and installed it on my Incredible running Synergy 06/16/11 nightly and it works just fine. I'm able to watch my TV shows. Here is the link to the post where you can grab the apk http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/22/hulu-plus-lands-on-android-market-for-select-devices/
Works fine on the Incredible w/ Stock as well, just installed it, watching Spaced now.
Installed and works on MIUI 1.6.17.
Works on stock DINC
Thanks for the link. Installed and working fine on my stock build DINC but not sure its worth the monthly fee.
Not worth the monthly fee for me. The hacked Flash + Hulu worked fine, at least on SR 4.0. I'm using Synergy now as well though; haven't gotten around to installing a hacked Flash 10.3 + Hulu, but I know it's possible.

You can watch the non plus shows through the app with a much nicer interface. And that doesn't require a subscription.

So anything you can normally watch without a subscription you can watch with the new hulu plus app?
I can't see any way to use this without paying for Hulu Plus. Am I missing something?

Doesn't seem to be working for me anymore, either. I'm on MIUI 1.7.15.1 with the latest incredikernel. I don't mind waiting for them to "officially" add support, honestly. But given how long it took for the app to come out to begin with it may be a while.

Seems nice but I'm more of an official guy, I'd rather stay on Froyo til the official GB comes out. Currently the leaks are pretty buggy and don't have PBJ/very much ROM support. Plus, the hacked version of Skype works fine, thanks for letting us know though.

It "works" on froyo, just not the front camera :-/ No reason you shouldn't be able to download it. The Charge is a supported device.

They say that GB has something for the front camera that Froyo doesn't. Which is complete bull**** because stuff like Fring works perfectly...the Skype devs are just making stuff up because they can't code.

I can't get it to work. Don't seem to have a video option
EDIT:: I got it to work by restarting the phone. Video options suddenly appeared.
Try mu builds HERE that works with many froyo FFCs. If your Droid has the same FFC API as the other Samsung devices, it should work. I also keep adding more devices so if it doesn't work on you, maybe you can give me files from your devices so I can try to add it.

Just installed the latest version that you linked to onto my SAMSUNG DROID CHARGE running Humble 1.51.
I called someone on a MAC and the video did not work (not sure what version of skype client was used on MAC side). The call worked but the video option failed.
I called someone on Win 7 with the latest Skype version (downloaded over the weekend) and the FFC video worked fine. Did not try the back camera.
Thanks for this awesomeness!!

Running Froyo - Skype worked fine for me last Friday when I made a video call to my sister that lives in Australia. She was using her Apple laptop and I was using my Droid Charge. I also Skyped my buddy's iPhone4 with no issues.
I don't use Skype from the Market, I used the one that was posted around these boards. It works fine.
Hey,
I'm sure I remember reading about someone talking about it on our play forums, but don't think I've seen anyone confirm.
The hacked version of SE's panorama camera app works on the play -running CM7-
Link here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14976061&postcount=90
Tested / working on my R800x running CM7.
Edit: thanks to everyone who tested, looks like this currently will not work with stock SE firmware or Verizon's bloatware. Really makes me wonder what's different in CM7 that lets it work.
I've tried a number of panorama apps, and I have to say; its pretty sweet. Simple, straightforward, gets the job done, and works well. Makes me wonder why they refuse to include it as a stock feature.

nice works on stock Rom good find
edit: doesn't save pic after it's taken
Really? That's odd. Can someone on cm7 try? It's saving fine for me. attached a photo I took with it for yalls. Hopefully since it seems to work with cm7 something can be done to get it working with stock.

Thanks but whenever I press the stop button, it does not save the picture
it won't save the picture for me either. Verizon stock 2.3.3
Doesn't save pictures on the stock rom. I also followed the thread linked to above; downloaded the original version from first page and flashed the panorama-fix.zip containing the necessary libraries. That doesn't work either.
It doesn't work on the stock roms, you'll be able to install it yes but it won't save the picture, it works perfectly on the cm7 roms cause I was using it alot and posted something about it over in general like 3-4 months ago but I got tired of using the cm7 roms cause the touchpads didn't work for 3/4 of the games I liked to play

it will work perfectly at firmware 2.3.2....
It's probably just trying to save the pictures in a directory that doesn't exist in the official firmware.
Where are the panoramas saved ?
I believe they are saved in a folder called panorama on the sd card

I have been trying to find a web browser that I like & unfortunately Chrome isn't cutting it for my everyday browser. I am coming from a HTC Rezound where it automatically take you to the full website (desktop view) without changing the settings every time. I also miss Adobe Flash when visiting sites like ESPN, but could possibly live without, maybe.
Anyway, the question here is, does anyone know how to load one of the other browsers on the Droid RAZR HD (XT926)? Looking for something like what is stock on the VZW Galaxy Nexus now.
Or is there another browser that is secure that you all would recommend? Tried Opera (way too slow) and Firefox (wouldn't pull up desktop even when selected).
By the way, I am rooted running stock JB with bloat froze in case that makes a difference how or what to try.
Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

give me a few hours and ill have some stuff for you to try and see what fits you best
Opera..slow? Are we talking opera mobile or opera mini as there is one major difference between the two.
If you want the old stock browser just find a ROM with it, unzip the ROM, grab the browser apk and install it. You may need to place it in /system/app/ and set the permissions.

I tried Opera Browser, not the Mini. Also I did try loading the browser from a friends Nexus into the /system/app but it didn't want to work. Perhaps I was using the wrong permissions or the apk was set up differently.
Never thought about extracting from a ROM. Will definitely try it if you can let me know the appropriate permissions.
Thanks all!

So I downloaded another ROM, extracted the browser apk, wouldn't install so I move it & changed the permissions to rw/r/r & it still is not working.

I am currently testing out my first ever custom ROM installation [Fresh & Slim 1.3+Native Tether hack NO Goodie Bag] *rooted a device for the first time 2 days ago as well* and I am running into some problems. iReader opens and selects a mobi file, but then crashes [Unfortinately, iReader has stopped.] Aldiko opens and select a book, but it never opens and there are no error messages. The Mobile Hotspot opens, configures, and activates, but both my Nexus 7 stock & my linux box is stuck acquiring an IP.
However, if I use Goodie Bag with Flesh & Slim 1.3, I am able to connect to the hotstop with my Nexus 7, but still no go on Aldiko& iReader. Should I just try another Rom? I haven’t found a solution to this issue through XDA forum. I thought iReader might require another stock app, but I couldn’t find any related information to that. Maybe it’s the same with Aldiko? I was able to open a mobi file with FBReader, but it’s limited to only some formats. All advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That rom is pretty old. You might try a newer one. If you're looking for something slimmed down try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46066949
Would this be a recurring issue? If I use that rom, would I have to wipe and install another rom in a few months time as well? Would applications start breaking or newer / other apps wouldn't install at all?
What?

iReader is experiencing the same crash & Dailer is crashing with SUPERLITE AOKP JB 4.3 V1.0.
And iReader is still crashing with CM10.1... What am I missing? Does iReader require another application? I am trying iReader with a fresh installation of all of those custom Roms.
