Hulu Plus not supported on Skyrocket...WAHT! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Not that I would pay for Hulu, but I watch their free content sometimes. This is a travesty.

yea I noticed this yesterday too...disappointing.

HULU works on the skyrocket........
just use one of the deodexed roms(like this one-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341616), which will let you edit the libs of the Flashplayer. use the Libflashplayer.so hack that is on xda replace it and give it the proper premission and BAM!!!! you got hulu
have been watching hulu on my phone since melvin dropped his first rom.
if for some reason you just cant manage to find the Hack i will post it up for you and give credit to the Dev.

it IS a stock rom, its just deodexed(allows manipulation) but its str8 stock even has all those crap apps that you might like stock kernel as well.

I know that but what I consider stock is a ROM that hasn't been messed with at all.
I normally run Cyanogen Mod 7 but it's not available yet.
No, I don't like the crap bloatware apps.
Thing is, I will not die without Hulu and it's not enough reason for me to grab the first thing that comes along and install it.
I am actually enjoying the stock rom on this phone. Can't do everything I am used to but, I have to say that it's been pretty nice.
I will likely consider Cyanogen when it comes out for this phone but I am going to have to think pretty hard at this point. That rom has caused nothing but issues for me on multiple phones in regards to GPS which I rely on quite a bit. I know there are fixes and I got my GPS working after a lot of hassle on my Evo but never had success fixing it on my Inspire. Been nice having my GPS working without an issue on my Skyrocket. So... At this point, I just don't want to mess with the stock rom until I have a chance to evaluate it more.
My phone is rooted and that seemed to be all I needed to edit the needed files in the past but I guess not in this case.
Didn't Hulu come out recently and say they are supporting all Android devices now or was that Netflix?

I agree the Stock rom on the SR is great thats why im not even worried about not having 5 or 6 roms to choose from. i thinks its pretty nice as is. but i like to be able to edit certain files. and i think all you need it root explorer and you CAN edit pretty much everything on the phone.
but i didnt notice that you cant edit the build.prop, or the libs. i had to pull the build prop and edit on my comp and push it back.
and CM7 is a buggy nice little rom one of those things were you deal with the problems cuz its so damn nice. same with miui.

What did you change in the build.prop? The manufacturer, the model screen settings? I have done this on multiple devices including my Honeycomb tablet. My HoneyComb tablet (Acer A100) is running stock rom and I know I was able to edit the build.prop on that just using ES Explorer.
Let me know what to change and I will give it a whack, after backing up the build.prop file and making a nandroid

It shouldnt be......
may i ask what files you are seeing in the Lib folder on the com.adaobe.flashplayer.
you shouuld have four files in there already right? i have seen it where it is empty sometimes and that means this wont work. ALSO if you unistall flash and reinstall flash 11 it repopulate the lib folder and i have had luck with this as well. once you get it will stick though. you wont have to this every reboot or anything.

thats the Internal SD....you have to go through Data/Data/Com.adobeflashplayer.lib/Lib<<<<you will find it in there.
but i believe you have to be on a DEODEXED rom....not the stock unless you know how to pull a lib file from the phone extract and edit. then push it back(this meathod is harder)

You also need root access. I used root explorer (from the market) to access the appropriate folder on my phone.

this is true, but even with root on the stock rom(odexed) i dont think you can edit the lib files.

[DUMP] LG Eve

Credit goes to @pixeladdikt
Gonna go through and see if there is anything interesting, thanks Maxisma and pixeladdikt
edit: I thought when you downloaded something the estimated download time went down, not up
hope they have some specail apps inside
I've checked on ROGERS' pages and on LG's own one, apparently it runs LG's S-Class interface on top of standard Android, so there probably is some interesting stuff there.
Just saw some promo videos of it, very social oriented. Hopefully we can port it to Magic/G1.
There's some interesting things, about to install a video editor
Is this a 2.0 or 1.6 based OS?

Well you got farther than me, the video editor force closed and the workshop didn't have an app. Telenav is also in there it's the tn55 one. I'm afraid to use it though because I don't know of T-mobile will catch it and start charging for it

when i 7-zip'd the dump it has a folder 3rd Party... this then has framework etc of the ArcSoft apps placed on the phone...
idk what to do with them... but would this be neccessary or even able to be added into a ROM to have these apks work?
I've gotten the keyboard working by pushing libxt_jni.so and libautohan_jni.so to system/lib and than installing the XIM.apk though adb.

as well the build.prop needs and update I believe to get the divxregistration apk installed.
confirmed the keyboard works with above method. good work, not quite as good as htc-ime-imo.

to get the arcsoft working a build.prop change is required. than you'll be able to install the apps.

Could someone make this a bootanimation?

Alright, I have several friends who want the same thing, so it would not be just for me (and it might convince a few people to get an Android phone ). But if someone could make this a bootanimation (AOSP, Landscape), I would be ETERNALLY grateful. I would not be able to compensate you financially, but if there would be anything I could do for you all you would have to do is ask*
So, can anyone help?

I'm on Sense, and I tried it with my Rom and it worked/ran like a champ. It's in Landscape. It's late so I didn't try do any audio with it, but if you wanted to, you could probably easily pull that song from the video and simply rename it/push it. IF it doesn't work, it's most likely because I messed up the desc.txt.. Let me know and I will try to fix it ASAP.
Anyways, let me know if it works.. Going to bed.

Edit: it didn't work
I'll get it working for you, it's an easy fix. It's working on my phone right now. I actually forgot to replace the one I did last night for you with my original one. Rebooted my phone this morning and your boot animation played.
Working on it now, and I'm going to flash over to CM7 really quick to make sure it boots like it should.
Edit - http://www.mediafire.com/?z47q232h8h4tfia I accidentally uploaded it with the Sense desc.txt. It's fixed in that version. Also, on my Sense Rom when I ran it, it went through the entire animation fine and looped the last ending I have it set to. On the empty CM7 rom I tested it on, it booted really quickly because it had virtually nothing to load, so it didn't make it through the entire animation. Let me know if it makes it through all of it on yours.

I have the MP3 for it as well. What do I rename it to, and how can I use ADB to push the zip and mp3 to my phone?
I believe you rename it to SPC_Audio_Final.mp3 but I'll have to double check to make sure. I never use Audio on mine.
If you want, you can find root explorer and then use that to move the files throughout the phone. It's an application for android. ADB will work as well, there are plenty of tutorials as to how you set it up.
The commands are..
ADB push bootanimation.zip /System/media
That should be where yours is located. If you find that root explorer application, you can do it all from your phone through the menus. Just copy/paste. The audio file should go to the same place as the boot animation.

updated S-Voice apk

For those who dont know, there is a new updated S-voice out that is currently working on most devices. I'm sure it'll be patched soon as well, and the need to change the build.prop will arise again. In the meantime, this one DOES work

I haven't a clue then lol, tried that as well, with no luck.
I copied that .so file from the .apk into the lib folder and it works now. It appears the only time that the app FC itself is when it tries to launch another app. I'm guessing probably because it is trying to look for the Samsung app.
Example - When I ask "Locate the nearest Mexican restaurant" or "What is the weather like today?"

You're going to need to use ADB with cmd line to push it as far as I know or have root enabled file explorer like ROM Toolbox and you will see system when you're in it, this app never worked when I pushed it to system for me just installed it like a normal app and rebooted phone

Do any one with a same phone can post those files here or send them to eobender at gmail.com
They are located on /system/app , and you can get them or with Root Explorer or with Titanim Bacup.
Any Help will be Appreciated , and many many thanks will be given , without those files I can't upgrade to ICS

Why not just use the 2.3.6 fxz.That really is prolly the safest and fastest way to get you to a "good" point for an OTA to ICS.

Thank you so very much!! Replacing these files didn't fix my problem unfortunately. Makes me curious if Verizon has different version of these or is there something else i need to be looking for as to the reason my settings > user dictionary keeps force closing when i try to use it.
You've been a big help, i was looking for days for those files. I changed the permissions on them as well in a attempt to stop the force closing. they are now set to read only and only user can write, just like the rest of the files in there. I don't know what STSystem.apk is but it has all permissions enabled.
Maybe I didn't break this by deleting those files and i just noticed it being broken now. I'll post here later about how I fixed it, if anyone seems curious. Thanks for the help!!!

We must check that all permits are in 644 to all files have been copied to the system folder, there should be no loose ends, all at 644, then at the end, you have to reboot into recovery mode and do the wipes, then restart again and wait for the phone to resume the system, double check that everything works and that's it, if not, with regard to whether the files are from another operator due to different bloatware may be true that you can fail again.

I appreciate the fast reply and extensive knowledge. I don't understand what a 644 is nor what to wipe. I'm still using stock ROM and unaltered as far as flashing or anything more than rooting. I used SDmaid to move the files back into system/app as well as changing permissions. I will look into what a 644 is along with information about rebooting into recover mode if need be.
I would rather steer clear of having to reset the phone to stock, though I've done it before when i had to return a phone for defective hardware and didn't want to leave obvious super user and root on it. I left the whole setup of the CD image etc on the computer. I just don't want to depend on backups to recover my different game progress among other things.
Sorry for pretty much hi-jacking this thread. I didn't think it would be this hard and go this far. Thank you everyone for your patients.

SM-T116bu Kernel?

I just bought a Samsung tab 3v then I successfully rooted it using this: ( www 4shared com/get/4sFqkNODba/ ) but after I did that I could no longer use the camera (error then force close) so I'm asking if anyone could help me with that please? I did few research they said it's something about the kernel so anyone could provide me with one for my phone?
Someone please help me with this? At least provide me with an already rooted rom.

have a look through these and see if you can find a kernel :

i didnt see any promising leads on google for a rom, so your only alternative may be to return to stock. have a look through these for a possible way to do that :

one small tip for future reference.
you should figure out how to fix your phone and have the tools and files on hand before making any modifications.
personally, i never do anything to my phone before thoroughly learning how to fix it, and if i cant find a way, then i dont mod it.
i see all the time on here, people frantic because they broke their phone and dont have a clue how to fix it.
in some cases there is no way to fix it because the files are not available, its really important to know that before you break it.

Didn't you actually 'think' that I already searched for that on Google? Please try to 'think' that if you don't do mistakes you will never learn so yeah not breaking your phone doesn't mean you're smart OR intelligent.

i never implied that you or anyone else wasnt "smart or intelligent"
i have broken my phones many times. the difference between me and a lot of users i see posting here is, i think about what would happen if i do something and it breaks the phone, before i actually do it. then i go and find out how to restore stock, and gather the files and tools first. then i actually restore stock, just so im sure i know how to do it first.
i see and help countless users here on xda, and frequently see people run to flash things they think they have to have right away. frequently that is followed by post pleading for help, because they failed to understand the journey, and chose to jump right to the finish line.
so yes, i agree, not breaking your phone doesnt make you smart or intelligent. knowing how to fix it, and helping others to fix theirs for many years, at minimum should gain those of us who help others a little respect, because we dont get paid to, nor have any obligation to, help anyone.

How come? Posting a Google link is actually helping? Then next time someone asks who's that guy, you tell him Google it. I did come here for a reason, which is finding a developer who can make a prerooted rom for me since it doesn't exist anywhere in the Web.
Anyway I found a solution I will post it here in case someone needed it:
1- Flash the tablet with stock rom (the one of your SM-T116bu) skip to 2 if you already have the stock rom and you only want to root the tablet.
2- Get a file explorer (ES explorer or root explorer).
3- Browse to system/lib and copy the whole lib folder and put it somewhere you can access it later.
4- Flash your tablet using the prerooted SM-T116nu rom (link is above).
5- Using the root explorer replace all files in the system/lib which has a 'camera' word in their name with the same files name from the lib folder of the stock rom, do the same with the files in system/lib/hw6- Reboot your device and the camera should work again.

Posting a Google link is actually helping? because believe it or not, some people dont know the best key words to get the results that would actually be helpful, and a lot of times, they dont try at all. so occasionally i try to point them in the right direction, in the hope that they will actually try to help themself, because i cant be of further assistance. Then next time someone asks who's that guy, you tell him Google it. I did come here for a reason, which is finding a developer who can make a prerooted rom for me i can tell you right away, thats not going to happen. this site isnt a place where devs sit waiting for people to make request, so they can make stuff for them. xda is a place where you come to learn how to make it yourself, if you dont already know how, and support the community with it. since it doesn't exist anywhere in the Web.

Thanks, but your method soft bricks (black screen, can't operate the phone at all after booting) the phone until I flash the rooted or the official ROM again. There's no hw6 folder either, just hw and even changing only the lib files with camera in their names will also soft brick the phone.
I found a solution!!!
Restored my phone to the latest official ROM, then flashed the tiny file from the topic below using ODIN.

Worked like a charm!

The solution was so nice that I even made a short video explaining what I did with my Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T116BU from Brazil!!
