PSfreedom port to Incredible

I have been following the scene for the PS3 modding for Homebrew and saw that psfreedom is getting ported to many Android devices. Here is no mention yet of it working on Incredible. Anyone think they have the skill set to port this for us?
http://psfreedom.com/wiki/index.php?title=Device_compatibility_list

Once done on the evo it should work on the incredible. Or try loading up cm6 and using the nexus one or desire methods.

Great idea, I will try this and post my results.

It's been posted on the site that the incredible is in progress

They just added it to the list because its the same chipset, no one is working on a incredible port atm. They are working on the EVO right now..

I'm sure it'll come to us eventually.

Does anyone know if there is someone specifically working on the Incredible or EVO port? I heard there was someone working on the EVO, but i cant find where or who. I would like to pitch in some effort to help transition it to the Incredible.

doesn't matter. Sony updated the firmware (v3.42) to block all USB based backup tools.

New ps3 firmware update has reportedly closed the exploit we are wishing to use.

Looks like the latest firmware blocks this. The arms race between the hackers and sony is on!

I don't ever use PSN, so I'll stay at 3.41 for the time being. Think of it like the xbox jtag. Don't want to discourage anyone from porting just yet, it would still be a very useful port.

If you use a proxy app called Logan5's tool you can still go online with 3.41. It won't work forever though, they found a way to block it when the killed OtherOS support too

It DOES matter, just because Sony is releasing an update doesn't mean i have to update to that. I have turned off system updates and you can use proxy tricks to still sign on to PSN with 3.41.
I would assume anyone following this scene has read that it is built for 3.41 and has turned off updates....
Also the newly updated psgroove payload can retrieve practically any portion of the PS3 kernel, allowing us to find other exploits to take advantage of. Which means just a tiny update to the vulnerability exploit could still work on newer system versions.

Whoops double post.

Anyone know the result of flashing the N1 version over? I know it was talked about..

I tried flashing the N1 version of the jailbreak while on a CM6 rom but it doesn't get past the "HTC Incredible" white screen while booting

Just Adding to the mix
Hey guys i was searching other forums to get a bypass method for us who want to stay at 3.41 until we have other methodologies for jailbreaking and preserving the PS3.
here's a link to the OP at the other forum:
h* *p://psx-scene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65511
can't hotlink yet still new user so just replace the stars with "tt"
basically he's just giving two forms of bypass for being able to sign in and get in to the PSN to play online and shop.
Hope this helps someone.
Looking forware to more Droid Inc ROMs as well as PS3

Netflix Android app?

Has anyone heard any new news on the possibility of a Netflix app that streams video on Android? I don't know about you guys but I really really want it! Are there still issues with security and whatnot?
Just curious if anyone has heard anything. They need to get this done!

Still just hearing more about security crap..

Ya, started watching Scrubs from the beginning last night and it'd be awesome if I could pick up where I left off and watch it on breaks and lunch on my phone while I'm at work. Could kill like a season a day lol

I'm assuming this will be a super noob question as no one ever asks but going to ask anyway.
Why is the Hulu fix/hack/edit any diff than this? So long as we can fool a browser into think it's a full desktop, why couldn't we stream through that instead of depending on an app to do it? #flamejacketon

I can't give a definite answer but I would assume that any content would run smoother/better through the app then a hacked browser.

this.
Besides, this same thread has been posted countless times, a simple search would've shown that. We are waiting for it to be released by Netflix, as our processor has the necessary security needed for the app to be released.
I do believe though, that we will have to wait until the LG Revolution is released to the public before we can get the app, as I suspect LG and Netflix have an exclusivity deal going, so LG can sell some phones.
Then again, I may be and have been wrong.

I had noticed the last flick I streamed on my laptop used Silverlight, (as far as I knew that was new) but definitely makes sense. Flash is hackable, SL is not.. Got it, thanks.

Netflix on android won't be using silverlight though. It could use Moonlight http://www.mono-project.com/Moonlight, but support for that on linux is far worse than flash and would probably be even more of a battery killer, so I'm guessing they will port whatever they use for iOS on the iphone/ipad to android.
There's no way the iphone version of netflix (which has been out for a while) uses silverlight (jobs would never allow that), so I am guessing they will probably just use the same libraries for android that they have for iOS and create a wrapper around that with java to create an executable.

Netflix has always used silverlight, at least as far as I have known. And yareally
is probably right about how they are going to go about it.
The main reason why Winmo 7 had/has so fast netflix is because of silverlight and the native ability (I believe) for it to run on winmo.

Netflix?

anybody got netflix working for the infuse? i tried the stock 1.2.0 and modded 1.2.0 before seeing that 1.2.1 is out and doesnt have device check anymore so it doesnt need to be modded but its still closing the program after i log in.
1.2.1 apk: http://db.tt/wDtOm1L

Yeah, I tried as well this morning with the same results. BTW just wanted to note my infuse is rooted.

Rooted infuse with no device check apk same result

tried. Installs fine, but closes after trying to sign in

I am able to sign in and utilize all of the apps features including navigating my instant queue, but it shuts me down when i try to play.

it only works with gingerbread on the hummingbird. on a snapdragon it works on 2.2 because quallcomm has a deal with netflix. i guess the drm support is different.

Thanks for the the 1.2.1 download. I was able to get the 1.2.0-No device check.apk version to install and launch. Everything but streaming is working (i.e. add to queue, search, etc.). One thing I haven't tried yet is to 'deactivate' one of my devices that I use to stream Netflix. Remember, you only get 6 unique devices at a time. I had to do this when I got my AppleTV2 and realized that between the xbox360's, blu-ray player and the multiple iphone/Pads in our house, that I had run out of activations (got a message that the ATV2 couldn't access Netflix Instant, blah, blah, blah... a similar one to what I'm getting when I try with the Infuse), so I deactivated the blu-ray and was able to use my ATV2 just fine.
Will post if this works.

deactivating devices doesnt make a difference. and i dont appear to be limited to 6 devices anymore, i now have 9.

What it's going to boil down to is to modify a gingerbread rom and most importantly a kernel to get it onto an infuse. That's the only way we're gonna pull this off.....

Or just wait. =]

Netflix on Froyo!!

According to Android Police, Netflix has added our device to the supported list!
http://bit.ly/oPqr9l
version 1.3 is supposed to work on our device, but currently the version that you can download from the market is 1.2.2, so I guess that's why it isn't working yet.

downloaded it but it goes back to main screen after putting in email and password
your link is dead it seems here is another

I know, I got kicked out too! =[

I saw it in the market earlier. I thought it had appeared because of some of the tweaking I'd done after rooting today, but quickly realized that is probably preposterous. This makes a lot more sense.
Anyway, it doesn't work for me either. Force quits after trying to log in.

Here's to hoping that 1.3 update is released soon and we can finally watch Netflix over our unlimited 4g data plans!

dropped a 1 star on the app in the market for listing the charge as supported, and it STILL closing after login. here's hoping after enough of those, they'll actually fix the issue. honestly, this is the one app I'm holding out for to make this phone complete for me.

Not working for me either. Reboots after logging in. Seems like netflix pulled the switch a bit too early.

the version downloaded from the market works on the gingerbread leak (i don't think it worked before). maybe netflix requires gingerbread? idk. hopefully that's true only because it means a gingerbread release would be any day

Netflix would not add the Charge to supported devices over a leak, since its you know.....a leak...... and yes, previously most all phones required GB to run netflix.
If it added as a supported device and still won't work on Froyo, then it deserves bad star ratings, if it will support the Charge Froyo with a new version of the app, but that version isn't out yet and they are already adding it to the list of supported devices, it deserves a 1 start review.

has anyone tried it on stock froyo or are we all on modded roms?

Tried on both
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App

2 things:
First, it specifically mentions the Commando with 2.2 as being compatible.. so that's a nod toward Froyo support.
Secondly, it lists the Bionic as being supported.. so maybe they just grabbed a list of phones and called them supported.. or maybe the Charge is going to get Gingerbread soon.

Its definetly becuase they didnt put 1.3 on there. It even says in the description "Netflix 1.3" but has 1.2.2 so thats clearly the problem. But why on earth would they update the description and not the actual app?????

The app downloaded fine from market on my GummyCharged Froyo. But it's the same 1.2.2 version released a month ago. The app description does mention 1.3 - so hopefully an update will be pushed out soon.

I just called Netflix to complain about it not working and they told me that it may be a DRM issue.
The more people that call to complain the faster they will fix the problem. (or they will pull support for our phones)

Its always been a DRM problem.
So the questions we need answered is 1.3 going to clear up those issues or did they just throw the DC on that list for the heck of it.
There is no point in doing anything until the official version on the market is actually 1.3. Then we will find out if anything changed.

Looks like it was just updated. Loaded up fine for me.

Working hulu app?

Has anyone successfully gotten the hulu app to work on their one x? I've tried multiple modded versions that have worked in the past for me for my vivid and none of them are working on the one x. They just sit there buffering forever. Any ideas?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

So far I haven't found a solution. Everything I tested is the same buffering problem you said.

I am in the same boat. I have the international version of the 1x and I'm able to get hulu working. But I just purchased the AT&T 1x and it doesn't work. all it does is op stated just stays stuck buffering. I wonder what is different between both phones that will cause this

I actually get the error that my device isn't currently supported. I'm going to try to find a work-around via the browser and a modified version of the Adobe Flash apk I have lying around from my old days of doing this with my Captivate.

I have tried a few modded hulu .apk's as well with the same stuck buffering problem. I really would like to get my money's worth out of my Hulu + subscription.
Come on Hulu!

I sent them an email at [email protected] asking for device compatibility with the AT&T HTC One X (I made sure to call it that so there was no confusion as to what device I was referring to) and this is the BS reply I got.
Thanks for your email. Because Android phones and tablets each have a different set of specifications that we need to take into account, we're only able to support a select number of them at this point in time. While I don't have a time frame to share right now, we'll be adding new Android devices regularly.
Again, I'm sorry for the frustration. We're working hard to bring Hulu Plus to a wide variety of Android devices as soon as possible. Thanks for being patient with us in the meantime. If there's anything else I can address for you, please let me know.
Thanks,
Olivia

So, Hulu Plus can't support various devices, but Netflix can? My guess is that they have only one poor sod who is working on all the mobile apps. Regardless, please email [email protected] and tell them you want to see Hulu Plus on the AT&T HTC One X, I figure the more people emailing them the higher the chances are that we'll see the app released.

My reply was a little different. I'm hoping that they will add it soon as there are many HTC phones one the supported list.
"Giorgio M., May 08 07:33 am (PDT):
Hi Art,
Thanks for getting in touch with us, and thanks for the suggestion. We'd love to get Hulu Plus working on as many devices as possible, so while there's no update at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up at some point. A lot of folks ask about adding the HTC One X to Hulu Plus, so we're certainly aware of the demand.
Before we can officially support it, we need to obtain a specific set of streaming rights, and we also need agreements in place with both our content partners and the device manufacturer itself – and these steps can take time. If or when support is announced, you'll see it listed at ( www.hulu.com/plus/devices ).
I hope this helps. If there's anything else I can address, please let me know.
Thanks, Giorgio M. Hulu Support"

If you're okay with viewing Hulu videos in browser, Flash Video Browser works great. Its a paid app, but worth it if you watch lots of Hulu.

Has anyone else noticed that their app only supports old phones. Not a single galaxy device in that list... I am not optimistic about this. If it wasnt for my gf being addicted to hulu, i would cancel.

No luck, I get the eternal buffering issue I and others had when trying modded flash players/hulu plus apks. It claims I'm having network issues, but I doubt that.
I might add that I'm stock, un-rooted, bootloader locked (for now at least)

There is an update today that works on the HOX.
Note: if you have AdAway installed you need to disable ad blocking and reboot or you'll get an error.
Edit: Argh, spoke too soon. Got it to work once and not since then. Some reviews in the App market suggest it does work, though. I suspect it's blocking rooted devices.
