On your phone go to hulu.com/widget/player/videos and enjoy!
(make sure user agent is desktop)
Out of curiosity is this hulu allowing us to use their site or is this a workaround?
It says that I am trying to access Hulu using and anonymous proxy tool.. and will not allow me to watch videos in what seemed to be a quite efficient video player.
Is it possibly because I installed the modified Flash.apk that this is happening?

nice, works for me. thanks
just for general information: my user agent was already set to desktop, and i still got the proxy message. I hit about:debug / settings / uasring / i re-hit desktop / reloaded page and it worked!
great find!
*side note* Now don't screw this one up for us Engadget!!!
works great, had to re apply desktop setting before it would work though
Beautiful
Using Skyfire as desktop, absolutely perfect. Nice find.
This is simply awesome, hope it doesn't get discovered and ruined!
Sorry for the stupid question, but how do I set my user agent to desktop?
Nevermind, got it!

Type about:debug into the stock browsers address bar, then click settings, some more options have been opened up. At the bottom of the list you will find user agent, set to desktop and enjoy Hulu, but be prepared to repeat this process after each time you close the browser...or you could use dolphin or xscope, which give you the option in default settings

works perfect on the Dolphin HD browser... the iPhoners at work are dying... I can see it all over there faces... they are watching me watch family guy... lol.... steve jobs has got to be pissed...
Thank again...
works great
No longer working for me
Was working fine... now I get a message saying that it looks like I am using a proxy. Anyone else having this issue?
still works for me. you have to re-apply the desktop agent settings then refresh.
Glad everyone likes, now just keep it between us lol.

Just use Skyfire browser or Dolphin and set it to desktop. Then you don't have to keep typing debug crap every time . Double tap full screen. Works really good.
How do you set the "User Agent" to desktop?
I'm new to this whole thing and I know this is a stupid question so go easy on me. How do you set the User Agent to desktop so I can watch Hulu on my phone? It's an HD2 and I have IE, Opera, and Skyfire.
I have several websites for work that require Microsoft internet explorer. I have tried firefox beta, skyfire, stock browser, opera. None of these work. Is there any browsers that emulate MS IE?
Can you share the reason why those sites require m$ ie?
Activex content, asp.net?
Yes, you will need to provide further info..... As in how do you get the stock browser to open desktop versions of a web site which by default are opening in wap format?
Certainly for Windows update

I'm wondering the same thing for my work sites. Not sure what causes them to not work. If someone feels like trying it out, http://caf.oeconnection.com is one to start with... Thanks in advance, and sorry for the hijack.

Well that's easy! Enter about:useragent and select Desktop.
It may well be that a custom useragent will help the OP, if he uses an IE useragent string. Probably won't though!

Yes, sorry Dave I wasn't asking how to do this, just giving it as an example.
Good to note for others though ~ but bear in mind the about:useragent only works for that session as it does not save the information.
Hello everyone. I have an un-rooted Xoom and did not see this question posted anywhere, so I thought I'd ask it here:
Is there a way to move the bookmarks from the stock android browser to chrome beta (both on the Xoom) without the use of a desktop to sync?
Thanks for your help!
No one's had this issue?
Seriously?!!

I don't think you can. However, you can extract the bookmarks from the stock browser by following the steps in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475892
and import them into chrome. I haven't done this, so I do not know which format the extracted bookmarks would be in.

Found this thread thru Google, because exact same problem also bothered me.
Nobody came up with a simple solution for Tetragrammaton?
Well if anybdoy else is wondering:
No, there is no direct approach, only thru the Google's cloud (no desktop PC needed).
Go into stock Android ICS Browser and then menu->Bookmarks->long click on a bookmark you want it synced and then choose "Edit" and there you'll see "Account:" change from "Local" to your Google's account.
You'll will have to go thru this process for all of your bookmarked links. :/
If you don't want to wait in order for the bookmarks to sync go into Settings->Accounts & Sync->your Google account->uncheck+check Browser and let it sync; and then uncheck+check Chrome and let it sync.
All done!

I know this is a motorola tablet thread, but the answer should be the same. This is very simple on my galaxy S3. Open chrome, hit menu button, go to settings, then hit the menu button again, another sub-menu will pop up with a direct import bookmarks option, click that and from there its pretty self explanatory. Hope that works on your tablet.
there are some sites i always have to press the request desktop site this is annoying can i make it always that i always request desktop site
Not on stock browser. You can use ICS Browser+.
On CM9 you can change the user agent string on stock browser.

what the hell guys?
you said ics browser i didnt realised this is a seperate browser from the stock i thought it a modification
I use the stock browser when i want a mobile site, but if I want the full version I use dolphin or chrome or opera. This is how i've done to work around
dolphin for pad seems to crash when i download something

you can get it from the market if you dont know already... though from my experience the request desktop site still not permanent.. i might have missed something.. using dolphin hd now

It is permanent, but you have to go into settings and change it from there. Simply clicking the "request desktop site" does not save it.
Yahoo refuses to load the desktop page using Opera on my TF by default.
If I do a Google search using Opera & go to a link on the first page. When I try to go back Opera takes me back to main Google search page instead of back to the first page of my original search.
Opera frequently crashes too and I never had any of the issues before ICS.
Best work around I have found for stock browser is to request full site, then bookmark the site and just load from bookmark.

How exactly
im in the settings nothing about that there
I just want to read my emails and my calendar from my galaxy s7 edge, but my university makes it difficult by requesting that we all to use Inportal on our phones, which I don't want to install due to huge battery drains and slowing that my colleagues have experienced.
I can easily circumvent the problem with google chrome by just going into the desktop mode and voila! I have everything I want.
It even saves all of my log in information too so it is perfect!!! EXCEPT...google chrome always wants to default back to the android mode which is blocked by my university since it is not seen as a desktop. When I save the site to my home screen as an icon to get into my email, it defaults back to android but I have no way to change it back to desktop
My question....Either how can I keep my google chrome to be on the desktop setting and not revert to android. Note that I am NOT rooted, but almost always my login information is already entered.
There are lots of apps that will let me default to the desktop browser but they won't save my username and password, which is a pain because our passwords have to be very difficult to type in all the time.
A browser that would allow me to save my login information so I don't have to re type it AND default to desktop browser would be ideal!! Any suggestions?
Sorry if in the wrong forum and thanks for helping!!

Google chrome does it to my phone and opera gets synchronized but I wouldn't suggest especially password. I always decline that option. It's too risky. But if you still wanna take the risk it's better to use opera and go to synchronization options...[emoji2]

I tried Opera but I uninstalled it. Maybe I didn't use the synchronization options. How would I go about that?
First, Make an opera account. Then Log in to your Opera account on ALL devices. B4 u log out u 'll see the browser data sync automatically. If not, go to data sync.
Make sure u click from the options the 'on the go' if its not by default.
If anything doesnt work properly visit Opera help page to see if on your pc or mobile is an any option disabled.
Good luck!

Hello,
Firefox saves passwords and users, but you need to press the request each time you want to change to desktop but it's easy you don't need to scroll.

Puffin is the perfect browser for this
You can set the pages to load in desktop mode by default and supports flashplayer
Also save password once logged in
Must give it a try!!

I tried the one for Firefox. The only problem with that is it it always looks like the desktop view when I look at it. All the other ones I try login as a desktop view but they'll steal look like the Android view which I want. Firefox I could never get to do that. But thank you!
What happened exactly?
Reboot phone and try to reopen it
You can just use puffin when you need to
