The apk for netflix has been compiled out of the system dump for the new LG revolution. Apparently streaming video is not working as of yet, but otherwise it works perfectly! Hopefully the streaming portion will be working once dev's find a way around the drm issue where it checks to see if you have the proper processor...

So are you saying you've installed it and used it first hand? I tried downloading the apk to manually transfer and install it on the phone, and I also downloaded it straight to the phone, but it failed each time. When I downloaded it to the PC and transferred it to the phone the install failed, and when I tried to download it from the site straight to the phone it said it was not supported on the phone. I'm running the 2.1 global firmware by the way.

I flashed [Cyanogen6.1.3]gingerbread[v01] (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947613) last night and was able to get it installed, but like many others I wasn't able to get past the login screen. It doesn't FC with an error, it just closes.
Oh well. Progress is progress i guess. At least at this point there actually is an app out there. The closest apps I have for now are AnimeWatch (anime is mostly what I watch on netflix anyway lol) and Droid Streamer.
Can't wait for netflix to be working though.

Im sure its been asked before.. but how come it wont play? Do i need a new flash update? Says it doesnt support my phone or some crap
I'm thinking the best place to ask that question would be in the ROM thread.
I'm using MikFroyo 4.4 and it was working fine. The initial fix was to the FlashPlayer.apk. There has been a recent update to FlashPlayer on the market, if you downloaded that update, that would probably cause it to not work anymore. Try uninstalling the update (if its even installed).
it was actually working just fine with the flash in 4.4 but they have since put out 1-2 new updates to Flash since then, and it broke my Hulu also. Uninstalling the updates made it work again!
Hulu blocks mobile devices. People have been getting around this by tricking the site into thinking it's a windows device by hex editing the .so file. I haven't been able to locate the most recent edited version of Flash but the previous version has been posted on XDA.
I just flashed MikFroyo today and the Hulu works on mine.... I havent updated the Flash that I know of..

Easiest way to watch Hulu is to use the app that Mik included with the rom. After you choose video you want to view, make sure you click the hourglass when the window appears.
If you are trying to use your browser to use hulu.com, you need to change your browser settings to NOT view as a mobile website, and it should work fine as well!
Also, I am pretty sure if you update Flash from the Market you will lose the hulu mod.
Hope this helps!
Hello all
I have been having problems with my lg gt540. Recently minecraft pocket edition was released on android market, I really wanted it but much to my dismay it wasnt on my market (it was on a friend phone HTC desire HD running android 2.3.2). So i decided to put cm7 on my phone to get it to 2.3.2 (it was already 2.1). I did that, installed the market fine everything was good. However i went onto the market and it wasnt there still, went onto the web version signed in and it said incompatible firmware (yet i was on 2.3.2). I downloaded an .apk version of the internet tried to install it only to get "application not installed". so i then installed alogcat to see what was going wrong:
"E/packagemanager(1274): package com.mojang.minecraftpe requires unavailable feature android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch: failing!"
Will some one please help me to get a way round this.
Thanks

Read what it says: android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch. Your device doesn't support this, so it Android won't allow it to be installed.

That doesn't sound right. I know they stopped, but I think that just meant they aren't developing for future versions of Android. They still support the existing version of flash and even still provide updates to security.
I will uninstall and try to reinstall to see if I have a problem as well.

It should still work. They aren't discontinuing the flash player. They just stopped development on it... which means it reached a point where it's stable.
They ARE moving toward HTML5, but they aren't just tossing the towel at flash. It'll be around, even in ICS. They said they would still work on compatibility and support, but they just won't be developing new features for it.
If it says it isn't compatible, then that is a market issue I would assume. Try clearing your market cache from Settings>Applications.
If you've having that particular error, you need to uninstall any version of flash that you have currently installed (even if it is preloaded). Then, reboot your phone, and try the market again and it should work.
Oh I don't know because this is not the only person that's having the same issues that's why I seen alot of people tell me that they are having issues with flash player. I haven't had a problem with my flash player yet mine still works n very stable.

It is a protected app. That means if your rom fingerprint has not been approved by Google (i.e., official rom by carrier or manufacturer that is a member of the Open Handset Alliance) you cannot download it from the Android Market (will show as not compatible with your device). This is an issue with many apps if in the Dev Console on the Market they have checked the "Protected App" box. Change the rom description and fingerprint in the build.prop to the ones in the build.prop of the latest official rom for your device. If a G2X change these two lines and then you can download flash and install it.
Code:
ro.build.description=lge_star-user 2.3.3 GRI40 41fdc8a2 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=lge/lge_lge_star/p999:2.3.3/GRI40/lgp999-V21e.41fdc8a2:user/release-keys
Flash 11.1
I've downloaded Flash version 11.1.102.59 and it shows up in my Application information. But every time I've needed flash it says I need to download Flash and when I try it states the same as the OP "Device not Compatible" I haven't figured out how to fix the problem either. Any help will be greatly appreciated I assure you. Thanks,

If you're having this problem then you need to remove the preloaded flash player. The file for the preloaded Flash is /system/app/LibFlashPlayer.apk ... you can remove it manually or use titanium backup or similar to remove it. Then reboot and you should be able to install flash from the market.
EDIT:... somehow I feel like I'm repeating myself.
Does anyone know why after putting on custom roms hulu breaks?
Also if i flash back to stock will that fix it? i dont want to hassle with it if it doesnt.
I see a modded version works but come one i want real support! i am a paying hulu customer...
Modded Hulu
Hulu breaks because it requires DRM verification that you can't get on custom roms. I know you said that you don't want to use the modded version but it works well. I have attached the link to the comment I made on the CM9 thread regarding it. Download the landscape version to browse in landscape. If you have ad away, follow the instructions in the second quote to allow hulu to work with ad blocking still on.
6stringaddict said:
I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. The Play Store version of Hulu Plus was giving me a DRM error after installing CM9, so after some searching, I found a modded version that works. It is an older, less polished version and you have to disable ad blocking (use ad away) to get it to work, but it does. I am using the landscape version.

If you add "ads.hulu.com" and "p.hulu.com" to your whitelist in adaway you'll still be able to block ads from other apps. I know i get tired of rebooting the phone when i want to turn off ads to watch hulu. Hope this helps.

If I flash back to stock will it work again? And why can't whatever drm check they do be rolled into custom rooms?
Also just looked everywhere for that guide to go back to stock and couldn't find it. Anyone know here it is?

*EDIT*
From what i read is TWRP doesnt like to flash the stock roms. but CWM does it fine. I will have to switch over to CWM as i have TWRP installed currently.
Before i go to all this work i would really like to make sure that hulu works on stock with an unlocked bootloader.
Went back to rooted stock... hulu works fine.
By now most of you know the drill
But it went like this.
Flash CWM... Do this via fastboot, NOT ROM MANAGER!
Flash Stock
Reflash CWM... I think stock breaks the first flash
Flash root
profit.
Thank you to all the devs that work so hard.
One question remains.
Why does custom roms break hulu and is there a way to change that?
EEK i am a bonehead.... i never actually streamed a video from hulu i just got past the DRM prompt. I have a different message preventing me from watching hulu now. Something about Streaming Unavailable. make sure i have the latest official update.... :/
*EDIT*
A quick search finds this.
GRRRR
Apparently hulu doesn't work on unlocked bootloaders.
Man that pisses me off at hulu... They might lose a subscriber over this.

Maybe uninstall and then newly re-install youtube app.
Alternatively you can clear app data.
Good luck!

If you are using the stock rom then yeah that could be the case. If not then you might want to reinstall your custom rom or youtube itself. alternately if reinstalling both did not fix it you can still use youtube via a browser and directly go to the youtube website.
yes stock rom. youtube works in browser but is really slow. need app based version since tablet is now with my dad. need to get newer rom on it so it can run something like livenettv.
managed to sort this. youtube vanced v13.50 is working fine.
i thought this tablet was running kitkat 4.4.2 but turns out its jelly bean 4.2.2. thats why iv been getting the wrong apps that dont install on it.
vanced 13.50 runs considerably better than newpipe which doesnt even load up some episodes.
now if only livenettv would work then i wouldnt need to mess about this tablet anymore.
That didnt last long. Got issue with youtube vanced now. Error 400. Looks like im gonna have to get a newer android build on this tablet.
Anyone know whats best for my needs? Need android 6 or newer depending on whats more stable. Tablet is only to be used for YouTube and if possible livenettv.
this is now sorted again lol.
iv flashed twrp then flashed the omni 6.01 rom. no gapps installed and its doing both youtube vanced and livenettv perfect. far faster than before too.
looks like iv got life back in this tablet.
incase anyone wants to know. its a very simple process.
used latest odin and flashed twrp 2.8.5 then had a sd card with the omni6.0.1 rom and twrp3.1.1.0.
once odin flashes trwp 2.8.5, booted to twrp recovery and updated it to the 3.1.1.0 version using img file.
rebooted back to recovery, flashed the omni rom. rebooted again and it went straight into android.
setup wifi and installed youtube vanced and livenettv from sd card apk files and job done.
