"Breaking News" HuluPlus.apk Has Been Successfully Modded By Vgeezy - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hello All, I am Vgeezy....
As the title states, I have modded the huluplus.apk to work on any android device. It does not, I repeat does not require root!! YAY!!! No it does not give you free access to hulu plus, you still have to get a paid subscription to view the paid content. But if you don't have paid subscription, you can still view the free gallery. Enough talking I hope you enjoy this. Here's my video proof that it does work:
IF YOU HAVE AN AD BLOCKER ON YOUR DEVICE, THE HULU APP WILL JUST BUFFER OR FC. DISABLE YOUR AD BLOCKER WHILE USING THIS APP. IT'S BLOCKING THE ADS HULU BROADCAST, SO IT WILL NOT PLAY.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DEVICE.

Mod HuluPlus.apk Video
ModHuluplus.apk
Landscape Mod Huluplus.apk

Confirming working on Motorola Xoom and Photon.

Confirmed working on Galaxy Nexus (LTE), Asus Transformer TF101.
NOT Working on Logitech Revue - I think this has to do with GTV being stuck in Landscape mode 100% of the time. The splash page of Hulu+ forces whichever device into Portait orientation but since GTV doesn't have it, it gives me an error about it, and press any key to exit.
I wonder if there are any tricks around this. Any possibility that the app can be forced to attempt to display the splash and video selection pages in landscape when a device lacks portrait orientation?
Either way, great work.

Ask and Ye shall receive. I posted the landscape mod in my first post.

So... landscape devices should use the landscape one?
EDIT: Using landscape version, works great on Xoom LTE.

Confirmed working on the MY Touch 4G (Official MIUI TDJ Release), Installed in seconds with no errors.
I don't use Sense or CM7 so I'm not sure about those ROMs but if it worked on MIUI it should work on the rest. Good work man, looks great.

Working on og Droid. Can't thank you enough for this.

No go on the Sony NSZ-GT1 for either apk. Haven't tried it on my MT4G or my girlfriend's Desire HD yet.

Works flawlessly on Archos 101 G9.
Thank you very much.

Thanks! It again installed just fine and this time the HULU Plus screen begins to load but it Force Stops with no warning. May try re-installing again after a reboot.

Seems to be working in landscape on my Transformer Prime with dock. I am having some connectivity issues, but who knows what that's about...
Edit: The connection issue seemed to be caused by AdAway. I disabled ad blocking, rebooted, and all is well. Can anyone confirm that ad blocking makes this not work, and are there any work arounds? I'm happy with it working at all, truth be know!

works great on HTC HD2 official miui...thank you!

I'd love to get this to work, but sometimes it won't stop buffering on the Acer A100 tablet and eventually gives you an error to check your internet connection. Some shows seem to start up fine though.

Ad blocking software? I had to disable blocking on AdAway in order to get it to work?

Dang, that's what I was downloading them for! At least now I can view Hulu on the Galaxy Nexus and connect to my TV through MTP to HDMI.

Works flawlessly on Galaxy Nexus LTE verizon. Thanks

Hulu's app has always had issues with adblockers, even when I was using an officially supported device. Just remember to disable it before you watch.
This apk works great on my galaxy nexus. Thanks dev!

Hats off @blunttedsmurf, very nice job about to test in nook tablet, thanks

Works great on Viewsonic G Tablet running roebeets custom froyo rom Brilliant Corners 1.3.1.

[APP] TV Shows Stream LITE

Hi,
We have been working on this app, is my fourth android app.
The aplication searchs over internet for tv-shows links capables to be played directly on your device, with full screen support using megavideo, frogmovz, karambavidz and other hosting services. The search resoult are shown in a intuitive and easy to use interface.
EDIT: This application is not available anymore.
Samsung galaxy vibrant user here:
Using Nerov3+voodoo
on wifi
While the interface of the app was very easy to navigate. Non of the the videos I tried to play from the few websites I selected would play. I picked monk and the x-files. I also tried multiples of the sources.
It basically opens a webpage and ask you to verify that you are human. Nothing happens for "me" beyond that.
Vibrant user..nerov3..no voodoo Dexter works fine !!
Will this ever support HDMI out for the EVO?
Try megavideo servers first
The best integration is when megavideo is used as stream server, it goes directly to full screen.
I have been watching X Files and Dexter without any problem on my HTC Desire.
Sounds Great I'm in
I purchased the full version. So far so good
I have not had any problems loading videos on the Droid Incredible. However, there seems to be a delay on the sound by about a second or two.
I downloaded the lite version and experienced it both on Prison Break and Lost.
Excellent so far when I use megavideo streams. Awesome that its got its always sunny - thats not even on netflix streaming!.
watching dexter on my nexus one running MircoMod777 Gingerbread V.19
havent tried any others yet but im sure most if not all work, theres alot of sources to choose from so dont start crying if the first one doesnt load up right away, its the lite version, deal with it
Can you add Fringe?
I m a fan.
Beauty! I bought the full version right away. Great app.
same here, great app but would like to suggest maybe an integration with tv show favs app, maybe. I see the bookmarks app which is good, also how often will these be update, are we looking at 30 mins after show aired?

same with me full version on EVO cm7rc0. I will try fresh ROM later.
Hi,
This app has not been tested with custom ROMs. If you experience problems try uninstalling the rom flash player and install flash player from the market before changing your ROM.
so far so good.....most likely will upgrade soon...........great work..........
AWESOME
Bought it right away. And I never buy apps haha

works flawlessly with cynagen only problem is that still no 4g only in alpha stage when done, it will be amazing, try to see if it will work on my nook.
Running Rod's latest MIUIMOD rom on my N1(running on base 12.31). I didn't even screw with the lite app, I went to the jugular and bought the app.
Watch a few mins of a show and works great! Thanks for the app!
Works fine on my Droid X. It's running Rubix 1.9.5.

[APP] TexTab by forum member howettl

Not sure if this link has been posted before. It seems to work fairly well and it's free.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133277
Extract from howettl's original post:
TexTab is an SMS app for Android tablets. It allows you to connect your Android 2.1+ tablet to your Android 2.1+ phone over Bluetooth and send/receive SMS messages on your tablet as if you were sending them from your phone. I've been working on this app for some time now and I feel that it is ready for public beta testing. I encourage everybody to download and install the app on both your phone and tablet, and please provide feedback here.
App Features: - Honeycomb optimized, though not required - Push menu button to connect devices via bluetooth, with option to select a device to automatically connect to in settings - Conversation threads use your Google contact information to display contact info - Widget with button to enable/disable service, and displays connection information.
*****************************************************
edit.... after working well initially I'm now having problems connecting (an issue that the dev is aware of). Hopefully this problem will be fixed soon because the app looks promising.

If you use the widget, there's a button to turn it on and off
Running this with my Galaxy S 4g. A bit of connection issues, but I already like it more than syncsms since there is no dropbox to deal with.

Onlive Desktop

Hey everyone!
I just wanted everyone to know that Onlive Desktop does fully work on my Kindle Fire.
My KF is running CM9 but it works flawlessly. I was completely unable to find it in the market through the KF, but able to locate it in the browser. Could not install it through the browser either.
I simply downloaded the apk from another thread in another section of xda and installed from that.
I have attached the file below so that you may all try it out. Please let me know if it works on your particular configurations and whatnot.
C-ryan
I'll let you know. I'm rooted but not using any special ROMS.
Hi It should work on All Devices running 2.3 or higher with LCD density at 100 or 120, maybe in the 120s, It bypasses the hardware restriction. Have Fun with Gigabit internet.!
I'm running CM9 too, and I must admit I'm totally amazed how good it works... Thanks
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire using Tapatalk
Yeah, been using it for a few days now. Love it!
Works awesome, thank you!
Works great.
Nice
I have a reasonably virgin kindle fire with just a few apps. How do I get this going? Do I side load the file from a PC, and then how do I activate/install? I saw this demo'd and it sure beats alwaysonpc, I think.
Thanks...

Is your kindle rooted? You most likely have to root your KF first to side load apps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1534393
On a side note the app works good on my stock rooted KF.
You can side-load apps without rooting. Unless Amazon removed that feature in an update while I wasn't watching.
just hangs on cm7
any ideas?
I really need this
Works for me, rooted stock ROM. Reminds me a lot of my windows slate.
I'm running unrooted 6.2.2 and OnLive is flawless. Super smooth performance and great functionality.
Works great also on my Kindle - CM9
Thanks!
Awesome, works wonderfully on my KF running CM7.
works great on a non-rooted KF, stock rom that's up to date. Thanks!
How to use /set /have /put Onlive Desktop on ANY SMARTPHONE OR TABLET!!!
How to use /set /have /put Onlive Desktop on ANY SMARTPHONE OR TABLET!!!
Simple trick to bypass 7 inch protection and use this cool app on any device...
If you dont have app download latest version with black market alpha
http://www.mediafire.com/?hgdljhid6kvomke
Just download from google play lcd resolution - ///must have root and busybox///
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wemobs.android.lcdresolution&hl=sr
Set density around 100 – 160 and Onlive Desktop will probably work... - Tryed on Galaxy Note and density 160... (lowest possible...) and it worked
Only bad thing it wont probably be full screen, so fell free to try different resolutions, and maybe you set full screen
Hope i helped! If you have any question or better idea fill free to say

[APP][3.21.16] TWC TV - VZW/ADB/HDMI checks removed & watch away from home!!

UPDATE
Development of this app will continue here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-spectrum-tv-aka-twc-tv-t3847520
Thanks for everyone who kept this project going!
Hello here you will find the most recent TWC TV App from the android market... except it has ALL restrictions removed, NO ADB checks, NO proxy checks, NO HDMI checks, NO ROOT checks, and best of all, a method to watch ALL the channels while you're away from home, not just SOME of the channels TWC let's you watch; this can be viewed over 3g/4g/wifi... hell even 1x lol.
NOW the part I like... and maybe the reason why the root check was implemented by TWC.... you can actually WATCH live TV on any wifi, 3g/4G network away from your home! all you need is a few tools and you're on your way.... if this is of no interest to you then just scroll down to the download link
To watch outside of the home network:
Install a proxy server on a machine inside your network (a computer that can play live tv from twctv.com successfully)
I use wingate FREE edition (http://wingate.com)
Make sure you configure your router to forward traffic on that port to your machine
as a side note, make sure you assign a static IP on your local machine so your router doesn't get confused
also make sure you go to whatsmyip.org and get your external IP address (as you'll need this for the android side)
Install an app from the android market called "Auto Proxy (ROOT)"
Configure Auto Proxy to connect to your machine... here you will enter the IP you got earlier from your home machine and the port you chose when you configured wingate...
Now activate AutoProxy and all traffic will be routed through your home computer (all apps, etc...) meaning when you use the timewarner app it will think you're inside your home network!!
Make sure you turn it off once you're done watching TV, otherwise you will be consuming all of your upload bandwidth and also slow down your speeds since it has to go through the proxy...
Profit!!
Some Notes:
This app should work on any phone with gingerbread and up. (Tested myself)
Feel free to donate It took me a while to learn how to do this and it took alot endless nights
I think i should also point out that I didn't use anyone else's code to do this; I'm a lone developer and just like the challenge
I am also working on a workaround to the proxy thing... a way to watch Live TV on your cellular network alone... no proxy required (I make no promises but i'm looking into it and hopefully I'll come up with something)
I'll also try to release a new version if updates are released... try and keep everything current
Questions? need a more detailed guide or anything else? just ask! I'm here to help ... (but see post #2 first)
The 3.21.14 app would not be possible without GreenNasty... THANKS!

Thanks to those that made decompiling/recompiling easy!!

donations are also appreciated... modifying something without the source code is tough... and a cup of coffee can go a long way when coding thanks for your support!
Bug List
APP Version 3.2#44: Some users report that HD doesn't work as well with the new app. Time Warner did alot of changes due to the move to streaming away from home, that means that they definetely could have messed something up.... if HD is not working properly for you and want to try the previous version (2.6#36) feel free to download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?s3evtfhdedy3061
If you wish to decompile the app yourself, i have included comments in most of the important parts of the code that i modified... i will admin, they are HARD to understand and modify, but if you're looking to do it yourself in the future, I've helped you out
Issues/Troubleshooting
If you have tried this app and it does not work for you then i need the following information:
are you using the proxy instructions I mentioned or using the app using your home network?
MAKE SURE your device is rooted
if you are then please test it on your home network first and make sure it works (whithout ANY proxy, etc...)... if it does then let me know what issues you get when you use wingate and Auto Proxy....
if it does work on your home network but not with the proxy, then please tell me detailed instructions on how you set it up or if you need a guide on how to do so
do you have internet service through time Warner?
what device are you using?
what rom and kernel are you using, and what versions? (if you don't what kernel then just tell me which rom and version and i'll figure it out)
Are you rooted? With Super SU or just SuperUser?
All of the above checked? then i will need a logcat while the app is running Feel free to pm me the logcat ONLY after you have posted what i've requested and I'll let you know to send me a logcat... i don't want to receive random logcats and will ignore them if i haven't seen your information in this thread first!
Logcats can be taken via: adb shell logcat
OR adb shell and then type logcat, you can use the -f parameter to save it to a file rather than copying it from your command prompt to a file...
If there is anything else you think i should know, then please post that as well.... any little bit of information WILL help, trust me
I am committed to help.... but please help me by following the above instructions to make both our lives easier!
Thanks!

I really do not understand why they care if rooted / debugging is turned on?
I mean its at least a little understandable if one has an unlocked
bootloader and running on a non-standard rom.

There is competing theories on why they care... one of the reason i can think of (which i said in the OP) is that you can use a root app to enable traffic tunneling through a proxy (thus circumventing their "home network") restriction
Is this the phone version of the app?? Just wondering because I'm trying to get it to work on my HP Touchpad with CM10 and the signed versions I have found for the tablet are around 5mb and yours its just under 2.
Thanks!

Not sure why you version is so much smaller but it works perfectly on my tablet. I have been searching high and low for a fix and this was it. I can't thank you enough!!!

I will happily test it, i picked up a $10 cable from walmart, its a bit short but should do the trick. I managed to poke around in the code myself, dont know what the hell im doing, but thought i would give it a go. Anyway doing a file compare with your version and the stock version, i can see quite a few changes which im sure took quite a bit of time, so i want to say Thank You again!!!

Ok i just finished modifying the app... this is my first attempt at removing the HDMI check so don't be too harsh :/

I heard TWC app have troubles with some checkings with some ROMS maybe removing the checking when that message is shown. Look I tested on iPad, iPod, iPhone and. Samsung Galaxy Tab Android and works perfect but specific the problem is on Amazon Kindle 8.9 with iOs 8.1.4 and others in every channel no some channel is every channel the message and the message appears in no more than 30 seconds, in other words you only have around 30 seconds of video in any channel and the message is shown and other people have the same issues. If you have the code and you can check the message when is shown and remove the condition or if you have the source maybe we can see when the message is shown I can see to have an idea. If you look inside other forums in this webpage there are other people with dame problem in other devices.
Thank you

Can you tell me what specific message comes up? there's different messages that come up for different scenarios, if it's only "this channel is currently unavailable at this time" then i need to know specifics... what device, what android version, rooted or not.... a logcat of the app running would also be nice... I also don't understand what you mean by "iOS 8.1.4", afaik iOS is only on apple devices ... this fix is only applicable to android devices.
Let me know if it's happening to you and let me know the specifics i mentioned and i'll see what i can do about it.

Cox Contour App, HDMI and Root Check Removed for Android TV Boxes

Since the mod is the same as the Xfinity Steram App, I also modded this app.
Removed HDMI Check and Root Check. I also tried to make the app think that it's on Wifi or High Speed Mobile Network. This might or might not work. I'm trying this because this app seems to have low bitrate for the streams and it looked like when it drops to low quality it does not seem to recover. I'm not sure what causes this; but I was actually connected to Ethernet on my Shield Android TV Box and I have good bandwidth.
I only tested it on my Shield Android TV Box. Also note that it might not work on the Leanback Launcher and if it does You will need an Air Mouse. I have my Shield with a custom ROM that runs the full Android ROM and it works fine for me.

Can you explain how you removed the HDMI Check in the apk? I would like to remove it from Bell Fibe Tv app.
Thanks

That's a hard app to mod, the same with Virgin TV Anywhere. I modded an old version of Bell Fibe TV months ago and it was working fine but then it made me upgrade. I tried last week to mod it again and I gave up. I could not get the HDMI check removed after many hours trying.
It does work on my Laptop running Remix OS and using VGA to connect to my TV though. However on my Shield over HDMI it doesn't.
Could you provide the apk for the one you had working?

Don't have it anymore but it would not work anyways because the app won't start, it needs the new version
Maybe give this a try if you are using Android M or lower

This used to work for me on Marshmallow for the Bell Fibe TV App. I'm pretty sure it's not working on Nougat though
Thanks I'll give it a try.
The Contour App works great!!!

I didn't work for me on Bell Fibe Tv lastest app. Also using Jelly Bean
Anyone been able to test watching through VPN on the Cox app successfully?
I have an openvpn setup on my router and I am able to VPN from outside my home network on my laptop and watch all channels as if I was on my home wifi. However, when I try to VPN from my phone and watch through the Cox app, it acts like im on my home network just as my laptop did, but when I hit play the screen just sits there loading until it times out. This happens with the patched version of the app posted as well (not sure if it was patched to support this).
Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks all!

Open the Fibe TV apk with APK Editor in Your Android Box, you want to do a full edit
Search for mirror, you will find a hit on bools.xml
Change the value from true to false. Save the file and build the apk again, let me know if that works for You!
That gets rid of the mirroring error for me but gives me some other crappy connection error on my Shield Android TV Box. However it might work for You!

Not sure if this thread is still going or if I should start a new one. Just wondering if anyone had been able to look into modding the cox apk to function through a vpn (aka NOT in-home) successfully? Or if they can point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Could we get an updated version of of the app. If possible? I need
v4.10.2.007 because it's the only one that'll launch on my Mi Box
can you tell me what is is you did to remove this limitation? or would you mind doing the same for the spectrum apk?
At the moment it stopped working if I tried to login using a new shield tv I was trying to set it up with. Download works, chrome works but after I put my login credentials it saids the file is corrupt anyway to fix that? On my other shield tv it's been logged in so no problems with that, just can't add it to my new one.
