so ive downloaded the huluplus modded app from xda to use on my unrooted transformer (i have the latest US update).
whenever i try to play a video it loads the ads perfectly but then tries to buffer the show unsuccessfully and gives me a message telling me to check my connection and try again. afaik my connection is perfectly fine. i can stream hulu on my laptop just fine and this problem still happens even on the lowest quality.
any ideas?
hello...
I just upgraded to ics and rooted it
I tried every method mentioned here and still was unable to get hulu to play. GF really likes it so I had to try everything!!! anyway the only way I was able to get it to work was through www.playon.tv . I don't like that you have to pay for it but I don't see another way right now. They have a 2 week free trial so that might get you to the point to where you can find a hack that works for you. If you do please post a how to reply!!

that happened to me even on HC. did it not happen to you back then? I thought it was a normal issue. I would always end up using the modded flash player, now i'm having trouble getting THAT to work lol

The Youtube Apps stopped working on my Nexus One. I have the stock rom. I ask my friend to test his and his does not work either. He is using Cyanogen mod 5.0.5. Is anyone else having a problem using the Youtube App? Is there a fix for this? Thanks.
Works fine here.
Think you could be a little more specific about the issue? Saying it doesn't work doesn't tell us anything at all.

Sorry about that. When I try to view a video with the youtube app it opens, but nothings plays in the beginning. Sometimes the audio plays, but you see no video. If you skip forward, you will see the video stopped and the audio continues to play. I sometimes receive the error message: "Sorry, this video is not available". I have tried this using wifi and 3G with the same result. This also happens to videos I used to be able to play using the browser. Everything worked fine about a week ago. It seemed to just stop working all of a sudden.
Fine here (UK) on Wifi and as a bonus I just watched the chatroulette piano guy that was featured and it is brilliant so thanks for getting me to test so I could see that

in my experience, that happens when the video isn't formated (or format isn't available) for mobile screen/in mobile format/whatever.
nothing is wrong with the youtube app itself.
My problem with the YouTube app is that it often takes 'forever' to start playing the video! In fact, sometimes it will never start.
Somewhat embarassing when my wife's iPhone 3G can get to the same video and play it immediatly....
Have you tried watching in High Quality instead?
I have the same problem but in a different app, Tubedroid where downloaded videos can't be seen even though I can hear it. Turns out I can't download videos in HD, only high quality.

I hate this also. I pretty much gave up on YouTube which is crazy because you would think Google would support their own software the best.
Yeah, on stock youtube takes foorrrrrever to load up a video, even on a wifi connection. Oddly enough, the version that comes with Modaco's Desire ROM loads 'em up right fast. Weird.
Just thought there were some people that wanted to know.
This requires a rooted phone!
Firstly download the Pandora radio apk from a filesharing service or use market-enabler to get access to the American android market and download it from there.
Next, download Orbot from the market. Install it and don't forget to give it root permissions.
Before you press the on button in orbot, go to the app settings and select pandora to run through orbot.
Also check the "transparent proxying" box.
Next, start orbit by pressing the power button on the app to start the service.
Now open Pandora and it should work.
If not, try restarting orbit (kill the task too if it can't start again). Also if it prompts that it isn't available in your country AFTER it has launched, just press the back button and it should work. If you have any questions just ask

Hi followed your instructions to the letter but doesn't work. I get the message that pandora is not available in my country even with orbot running. I then close orbot and relaunch it but it freezes and can't connect anymore.
Works like a charm, thank you!
if it dosent work, try reinstalling orbot
Doesn't work for me Tried reinstalling Orbot.
Galaxy S Froyo, UK Orange.
Didnt work on desire.

@GlobaL_TroTTer
Thanks a lot. That worked like a charm.

I'm using Pandora 1.4 on a rooted stock Samsung Vibrant ROM.
In Orbot Settings,
Select Transparent Proxying.
Click on Select Apps (wait a long time for all the apps to show up). Select Pandora.
Start Pandora. Wait a while. I had Pandora setup in the US. So I don't know what happens if you are installing Pandora fresh. But for me, it started playing.
COOL..WORKS FOR ME.. SEA region
thanks for sharing...

Aaaah, thanks for the great tip of rebooting. Works perfectly on my Desire now
Not working on my Motorola Milestone. Already tried rebooting and reinstalling Orbot.
g/adp1 germany - doesn't work, even after reboot and sending all data through tor
Same for Samsung Galaxy S. Even after reboot and reinstall..
Works great on N1 in Aus. Cheers
Just curious any idea how how much avg data this uses on either high/low quality?
Not working, N1 in SA.
Thanx anyway
works like a charm.. orbot needed a few tries to connect though so keep trying
Does not work for Galaxy S. Tested pandora 1.4.1.

Another possibility is that the Tor node you're ending with isn't located in the US. Tor is a global network, so you could be ending with a node in Germany or somewhere where it isn't supported.
I'm not familiar with orbot, but you should be able to use something like "new identity" to switch to another node. Eventually, you should get one in the US.
It happens fairly often, any ideas?

In retrospect it may have been equalizer app from market. Currently running cm7 with dsp manager, no reboot issues.

Mine doesn't reboot, but Music crashes every time I try to stream over 3g. Works great on wifi. Hope they get the bugs out, because I like the program.

I was having some issues at first. It was either gingerbread or equalizer. Works fine now with cyanogenmod.

I used to have that issue, but it disappeared after a few factory resets (not because of google music, other reasons). It happened only when I started playing music then locked the device, but not every time it rebooted. I did have that music Fx equalizer however.
Because one signature isn't enough.
I hate doing resets, although I'm using Titanium now, so it should be an easy restore. Maybe I'll try that this weekend. Was kind of hoping for a app update that would fix it.

I don't think a factory reset if necessary, just remove the equalizer app if you have it, but if it's not the problem try everything before factory reset even if you have titanium, a single app isn't worth it because if you just restore everything back it's likely the problem will still be there.
Because one signature isn't enough.
Factory resets didn't fix my issue, even tried only downloading that app to make sure it wasn't interference from another one. But somehow I managed to get it to work when I unchecked cache music and wifi only from on to off and vice versa. Now it streams on both wifi and 3g like it's suppose to. Must have been a glitch in there.
G music is a data hog. I'm twenty days into my billing cycle and I've used over seven gigs of data on 3g. That's the only thing I've used differently. Luckily I have unlimited data, truly unlimited according to a Verizon Rep.

Hello all,
I'm running stock FroYo on my TB, and haven't updated at all since I got the phone in April (waiting for the official GB release before giving up free, legal 4G hotspot). Until the last update was pushed out to everyone else, Netflix worked fine.
Now, however, the app from the market loads, but won't let me play anything. I see this error pop up, instead:
"Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. If the problems persists please visit the Netflix website (11000)."
This error occurs on WiFi and 3G/4G. I have tried the following to no avail:
Rebooting the phone
Signing out and into Netflix
Uninstalling and reinstalling Netflix
I did search the forums for similar issues, but didn't find anything. If I missed a thread with a solution, please let me know.
Is updating a requirement to get Netflix to work? Is there an alternative APK I could try?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Its probably related to the fact you haven't updated and possibly the app has. If the hotspot is that important to you, just root and use wireless tether....
If you dont want to root then get PdaNet and thether that way
Thanks for your response, Jrocker!
Verizon may start cracking down on unauthorized tethering, per this article (although there may be workarounds), so I'm wary of rooting, and PDAnet doesn't create a wireless hotspot, so it cannot be used on my tablet.
Anyone on these boards not yet updated, and still able to run Netflix?
Same error message from me. I have a custom ROM and have access to the queue, but am blocked from actually watching any shows.
Update
I uninstalled the app and then reinstalled it via the Market and the shows will once again stream. Give it a try!
Hey guys,
I've encountered the strangest problem that it actually took me a while to figure whats wrong.
I was simply opening the youtube app to watch a video but it didn't connect, so I tried to open youtube through opera and dolphin but it didn't connect.
I instantly thought the internet is down, however it opened facebook and other non google pages in an instance.
I thought I need to update to youtube app, since i've been putting it off for the numerious negative comments, and I was shocked to find i can't even connect to the market. (Or the market website for that matter) (applanet is working fine tho)
I seems that the phone is blocking google services and websites (which is hard to believe but i don't have a better explanation.)
Is there any thing i can do to fix this?!
I'm running rooted stock froyo (JPKC2) (the one that came with the phone, never flashed it before, rooted with super one click)
PS: this just happened overnight, i don't recall installing anything new for days and youtube and the market were working fine.

Are you on 3G/2G or wifi? You can try a factory reset to see if that solves your problem. Keep a backup if you need your data.
