[Q] Hulu on an "unsupported" Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I got the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0.
I tried to do my due diligence, but it seems like the workarounds I was able to find for getting Hulu to work are pretty old, and none of them seemed to work for me.
Things I've tried so far:
Hulu Plus app (paying subscriber, works on my phone, but not supported on Tab - none of Samsung devices are listed as supported)
Via standard browser and chrome (it says that it's not supported on my platform)
Via standard browser as desktop browser
Tried downloading a modified flash player, but it won't install (after allowing in security settings, just says "not installed")
Tried libflashplayer.so, but there's no directory to put it in where the thread I got it from suggested. I made one, but it made no difference.
So, I'm running out of ideas here. If I can't get hulu to work on this thing, I might as well return it (main reason I got it is for a bigger screen than my Sensation for hulu and reading), and with none of Samsung devices listed as supported on hulu plus, I doubt that something is coming very soon.
Please help and thank you!

use Vgeezy's modded apk
I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 as well and I just installed the landscape version of Vgeezy's modded Hulu Plus apk. Works great and root is NOT required.

hulu not working with new flash beta

Hi there,
i downloaded the flash beta install from the Viewsonic favorites website and it works pretty good except i can't get hulu to work - any ideas?
My gtab is totally stock.

I think hulu is disabled for mobile devices unless U pay4. I tried a workaround but it crashed alot. Individual providers like trutv work ok.
The version of flash that works on our tabs isn't supported by Hulu. There is a work around posted on a thread here but I could never get it to work consistantly. The version of flash that is supposed to be released in Jan will probably fix this issue.
Don't be so sure that it will be fixed. Hulu WANTS to block mobile devices, and our tab is considered a mobile device. Hulu reads the version of flash you are using and either enables or blocks the video based on that. It's probably safe to assume you will never get Hulu on your tab.
Then screw Hulu...They have a paid site that I will never pay for then. The mobile market is getting bigger so someone else will come along and get my money.
There is a fairly easy work around. Search the forum an you can get hulu up and running.

Samsung SmartView - Tablet...where can I get it?

Hi,
I really want this app for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1...

Thank you.
Anyone know guys?
Looking for one of the earlier versions that actually work.
Specific tab version, not phone versions.

Gear 2 Neo a Galaxy S5 and CM 13

Hey everyone!
This is my first time ever posting on XDA. I have been running custom ROMs for a while now and I love the clean, for the most part feature rich ROMs that strip all the bloatware out that these manufacturers force on their users.
There has been one thing that has been bugging the crap out of me and that's as the title states getting a Gear 2 Neo watch to work with "Gear Manager" now simply named Samsung Gear.
A little background:
I first attempted this on CM 12 (Lollipop Android), and there was endless thread of people attempting the same thing with different ROMs getting mixed results with a variety of either different version of the gear manager App and all different version of associated plugins. (All attempts I tried all failed, just couldn't get the gear software on my phone to find the watch, either when the phone was BT paired to the watch or not.)
So after giving up from complete frustrations. I decided my phone needed a cleanup (was getting really buggy from multiple app installs and who knows what else) I generally have root mode disabled whenever humanly possible. Lucky CM releases great night version of their ROM that can be easily installed an upgraded using CWM or in my case TWRP.
So Now I'm on the latest build of CM13 (Marshmallow Android) and as most of you know Samsung released the gear app to work on other versions of Android (But no their own hardware with custom ROM installed).
So The App installed and all I get is the "You've modified you OS that is incompat... blah blah blah, gear app won't run". Quickly searching this the latest post basically stated that all they did was change their build.prop file to say htc instead of samsung. I made these changes, re-installed gear app. Now it loads (At least some progress) but still no matter what I do the dang app refuses to find the watch.
Can someone please provide a clear step by step what I need to do to get my Gear 2 Neo, to work on my S5 running CM 13? I really don't want to back to TouchWiz :S

Microsoft edge no fullscreen/Samsung browser in chinese

hey all,
so i have 2 problems with 2 different but my favorite browsers and no matter what i can't solve them.
the first is Microsoft edge always having the status bar not hidden when i wanna watch a video in Fullscreen. It usually worked when i first installed it, but when i had to do a factory reset on my phone it lead to this problem.
2nd is my Samsung browser. I am using a galaxy phone with a custom rom which is from china (Language is set to german) so the stock Samsung browser ofc was in chinese. That means i can't set google as main search engine but instead some stuff i can't even read, news are from china etc.
i thought uninstalling the browser and reinstalling it from play store would help but it's always back to chinese. Does someone know if there is any way to switch it to normal?
(another thread regarding this problem also wasn't answered here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/installing-international-version-t3791542)
Screenshots for the problems are attached.
Hope someone can help me out here.
Phone: Galaxy Note 7 international version
Rom: Aurora Rom, Android 8, ported from Galaxy Note FE
TWRP, Rooted with Magisk
