Stock JB, most recent system firmware updates installed, not rooted.
I have installed the final Flash apk, and understand this is now unsupported.
I was trying to watch Hulu video on Chrome, requesting Desktop site, but it won't play, as the Flash that is installed apparently isn't enabled, recognized, etc.j
Troubleshooting it, I found instructions to enable the plugin by typing "aboutlugins" in the address bar of chrome, but when I do, it doesn't take me anywhere. I get Error 300, with "this webpage is not available."
Is there a way to get this working? Why am I unable to even get into the "aboutlugins" page to view the settings and enable Flash?
Any insight appreciated.
i believe you have to install the ICS version of adobe.

Thanks for the *quick* reply!
AFAIK, I did install the ICS version - 11.1, which I had downloaded, if I recall right, for my Galaxy Nexus, prior to the JellyBean update. If this isn't the right file, or if you can link to the correct one, I'll be happy to give it a try.

Looks like the same file I have (same size anyway), but I went ahead and installed it. No difference in the behavio described above. When I try to just open Flash, in Chrome, it just brings me to a blank page, even with I choose Desktop site.
Is this working for anyone with Stock/non-rooted Infinity tablet??
My understanding is that chrome on Android does not support flash at all.

Yes, it's beginning to look like that. I thought having the final flash apk would avoid this, but perhaps not.
What are the best 3rd party browsers that do support flash, and which would enable viewing video at hulu (not hulu plus), and which would not conflict with the stock or chrome browser, or other system functions?

I believe Boat still supports flash in the mobile browser.
Not sure if Opera mobile supports it.
Seems like a lot of folks like Opera.
I just use the stock browser with the common tweaks, I'm rooted however.

I am on stock, not rooted (10.4.4.20) and flash plays fine in the stock browser (not chrome). I have also used Boat browser and this also works with flash.
Hi guys, brand new user here - just got my TF700 yesterday.
The mediafire link above works for me with the stock browser, but not with Opera. That's sad as I love Opera and use it on my PCs.

Thanks for this. What happens if you go to www.hulu.com, with the Stock Browser, and try to play the free video there, which will play normally on one's Desktop computer? For me, it says Hulu is not supported on the mobile device. This occurs even if I select the Desktop version of the stock browser, rather than the mobile set.
So I thought I'd try Chrome, and when I select the Desktop site for Hulu, it comes up with a message that I need Flash version 10.x or higher to play that video. That's when I found the advice to enable Flash by going to "aboutlugins" in the address bar, which doesn't work for me at all.
So I think Flash is working for me on other sites in the Stock Browser, as it does with you, but Hulu won't work here. It seems like it might work with Chrome, but it seems that even though Flash is correctly installed on my Tablet, Chrome won't use or recognize it.
So, is there any way to get Hulu (again, not Hulu Plus) working on my Tablet using either Stock or Chrome Browser? Or would another Browser, such as Boat, be required? Can you play Hulu with Boat?
Thanks to all!
Just to make sure.

Ah,
I don't have subscription so I couldn't get Hulu free to run on Boat, Skyfire 4.0 or the regular browser.
These browsers are Flash enabled...no luck even with the desktop stock.
Hulu just sends me back to the sign up for mobile devices page.

Bummer. Looks like it's not going to be possible to see the free hulu content on a mobile device, even a tablet, as you can on a desktop.
Dang,
Looks like no matter what Hulu free knows your on the Android platform and refuses the request.
Someone here at XDA probably has a hack for this.
Guess we're slightly fortunate here.
We have Comcast and just use the Xfinity app for TabTV.
Keeps going up $$wise though.
Goes without saying nothin's cheep these days.

Hi,
I was told and verified that the donate button does not work in the version I released. I fixed and re-uploaded it to android central. Please update your post.
Thanks for bringing it to XDA.

I have updated the app to the new updated version with the donate button working!

http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/35955-evo-hdmi-out-mirroring.html---ORIGINAL THREAD
Thanks to Orrebmas over at Android Central there is a working BETA version of the FULL HDMI for EVO.
All,
It is here finally, FullHDMI "limited time" public beta is attached in this post. This version is to mass test the app and get feedback before the next step.
I will be making an announcement later today about the beta and its purpose, but for now I am attaching it and going to get some sleep. You will need the Kernel posted several pages back on this thread to enable some features, and root. I just realized that non-root is broken as of this version.
Some of the things you need to know about before tinkering with the app, pasting quickly:

Most TVs have multiple options for aspect ratio. For example, zoom, hourglass, etc. Just make sure this setting is set to fill the screen.
I am not saying that is the case for all of you, it just was for me. Once I changed the setting, it filled the screen perfectly without messing with the X Y resolutions.
And also:

1- To achieve hardware acceleration, video memory (minimal) has to be used. Some poorly coded programs that also use video memory will try to grab a hold of the entire memory block instead of the available. This will cause them to crash when you are in hardware mode reserving a small block of memory to yourself. The only application that I found to be doing this is, strangely enough, HTC's Gallery (specifically video playback mode). Gallery video playback will keep trying to acquire the whole video memory, put the phone in a tight infinite loop doing so and eventually force close (after about 40 sec).
Compatibility or software mode does not use video memory and is safe to keep on while launching Galley video playback. Compatibility mode also does not make use of the "supercharged" feature, custom res or fullscreen mode.
2- FPS: Your frames per second will not be the same as on your phone. This is because the app is designed to keep the phone as primary display and output a secondary to the HDMI port. You are also outputting, most likely, a 1280x720 pixels which is almost ~2.5 times more the normal output. So in total you are pushing 3.5 lcd size screen worth of pixels (phone lcs + hdmi). Things can be improved if we freeze the phone display, but that wont be mirroring (maybe a feature in FullHDMI 2). Expect, however, to get more FPS in 3-D games (I get upwards of 40 fps on Raging Thunder 2) than 2-D sine he 2-D engine does the mirroring.
3- Lag: Some TVs (like Insignia) use an image enhancing and noise reducing engine. This extra processing puts the TV about half a second behind the phone making games unplayable by looking at the TV only. Watching movies is fine since nobody cares if the phone is a little faster than the TV. On this Insignia TV, I had to go in and turn off two image enhancing and noise reducing features, and now my phone and TV track together. I know Sony has its own engine, I do not know if the extra processing there introduces lag. I have two other TVs with no lag issues, but then they don't use any image enhancing engines.
Again, the app should not lag in mirroring, if you experience any lag then please check your TV and share your observation with us.
4- This app was not designed to display youtube or other apps that already work over HDMI. To use such apps you should stop FullHDMI from driving the HDMI signal first.
ENJOY
iF YOU DECIDE TO THANK ME FOR POSTING THIS UP, I APPRECIATE IT BUT NOT NEEDED..I DID NOT DEVELOP THIS APP IN ANY WAY, JUST POSTED IT FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT.

IMPORTANT..YOU WILL NEED TO UNZIP THE FILE YOU DOWNLOAD THEN THE KERNEL AND APK ARE IN THERE TO INSTALL!!! You will only need to do this for the RAR file. if downloading from a phone look below
I also uploaded the APK and kernel for everyone on top of the rar file so they can just do it on there phone also. So from the phone download the apk file and the zip file. place those on root of sd card and your good to go. Just boot into recovery and install kernel.

Great post. I guess we will see how this is received now. I must tell you that the mods here tell me that do not not like the spirit in which they say this app was developed . I hope this thread does well to inform people of this type of app and its uses... I also hope those who are against this app being discussed here can refrain from posting and just wait for the dev that they like to come up with their own app that is actually out and available to be tested and used .
I have been using the app for a week or so and am very impressed to say the least . Watching movies wherever j go from my phone has been most awesome.

yea i saw the other thread..i would have posted in there but it was locked. I only posted this Up because he had officially released it to the public and didnt say exclusive to any site. PLEASE tho mods if you dont like this thread let me know. Thanks.
Yes this app can have benefits in many many ways. i opted to wait for this version as the last release was not supposed to be released. I havent had the chance yet to use this app as my hdmi cable should be getting here either today or monday at the latest.
FOR EVERYONES SAKE PLEASE IF YOU DONT HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY PLEASE DONT POST IN THIS THREAD. WE DONT NEED ANY DRAMA!

ok so my wife is getting frustrated with the bloatware/sense reboots on the mt4gs....(I have stressed to her the importance of backing out of apps the correct way and not task killing but I guess old habits die hard...)
At any rate I'm researching/reading through the threads on here and I've got just a few questions that I haven't seen come up yet (in the same iteration that I'm thinking of)
- How much different is this phone from the Sensation z710e? (aside from screen size & physical keyboard)
- I'd like to just root and remove the bloatware and keep the phone stock (no rom install) [ok, she would like it to stay stock, I'm leaning towards bulletproof myself] so the question is:
Is it possible to stay with factory settings after rooting (s-off)/de-bloating this phone so that she can continue to receive o.t.a updates? (odds are though that o.t.a updates may put her to s-on again, possibly)
- Is there a way to exit the internet browser and have it reset, i.e: press home screen after browsing, then go back into internet and have the home screen come up and not last viewed site?
- sorry for my long winded statement/questions I just kind of think of way too many things at once.
- FWIW, the h-boot is 1.44.0007 so I'm fairly certain I'd have no issue using alapharev and the walkthrough guide on here to s-off and root.
- titanium backup is not recommended for the bulletproof rom? that sucks, but Blue must have his/her reasons. ( I think I'm misreading this but I'm not sure yet, there are a lot of 'link-to' posts in the first post of that thread)
- anyone know if any of the following apps aren't working with the themes or the rom? (yeah I know this would be better geared towards the Bp rom thread but why make two separate posts)
+handcent mms (used in place of stock messenger service)
+beautiful widgets HD
+live wallpapers in general

I don't think you will receive ota updates unless u are not rooted, however there are countless apps that will let you remove anything you want once you are rooted.
I would imagine that if you delete the stock messaging app and you are only left with handcent, it will take over everything automatically and you should have no issues... However I wouldn't try that until you made a nandroid backup in clockworkmod recovery

Ota updates will always be posted onto the forums. The latest one turned the phone s-on and unrooted though, so I didn't try it

I think on this one, the only way to solve it will be to stop using a task killer. You shouldn't be having any problems like this, certainly not to the point of being 'frustrated' with it, so it's pretty conclusive that the task killer is your issue.
The problem is that apps don't get to shut down correctly, any data in use either doesn't get cleared or becomes corrupted, and the longer this process continues the worse it gets.
I know it's hard to kill old habits, but she will continue to have a worse and worse Android experience on any device with any ROM as Android grows unless she stops using a task killer.

Yep, you should have no issues, it's pretty straightforward. You can just run the program, flash superuser and be done with it, but I would also recommend installing Rom manager from the market and updated your clockworkmod to the official one for the device.
Might as well update superuser too, but you can then leave it alone and call it done.
Will be stock and fine until an OTA is applied, then you'll probably lose root and possibly the ability to get it back.
You can install bloater and busybox (as per the bloater thread) and be able to remove stock stuff easily with it once you get root.

(he)
Some people have used titanium and it's been fine, i'm still on the fence about it.
Issue was I was changing a lot of things, and when people restored app data to things i've changed it caused problems - so the best way to handle that was to say don't use it.
I know the thread is long now for the Bulletproof ROM, but in it there are some pretty detailed instructions on how to use Titanium with the ROM that people generally agree upon. I've never tried it so can't say personally.
I'll eventually put it back in, but i'm pretty busy with work right now and getting time in my dev chair is hard - hopefully i'll get a break in my schedule so I can get some work done soon. You should be able to use it, just don't try to restore any data from another ROM or previous version of Bulletproof and you should be alright.

Beautiful widgets HD and live wallpapers work fine, never used handcent so can't say, but don't see why it wouldn't work.
If it ends up not working, post in the thread and i'll fix it.
That right there is what makes xda great. ^^^^^
Thank you.
On a side note, the megaupload site was taken down....so I'm daring to ask the following question: the 'how-to-root guide >>>XDA LINK<<< said to d/l other files instead of the ones from alpharev's site.....they were hosted on megaupload. Now what ? lol
Why can't the files downloaded from alpharev's site work?
I see that in the link, the Op said that it is the adb tools for the MT4GS, why wouldn't the current adb tools I have work/ones d/l from alpharev's site?
I've always used the file from the author, I got it from them when it was first available, and just recently when a friend of mine got this phone.
Always works fine for me, and I would rather use the tool from the original author anyways generally speaking.
When you run Revolutionary tool, either install clockworkmod or not at your choosing, it doesn't matter because when you're done with it all you should go to the market and download ROM Manager. Then you can use it to upgrade or install your clockworkmod to the most recent version ( 5.0.2.7 ) directly, it will find the phone, download the right version, and install it for you. Couldn't be easier.
You do have to have superuser (root) access to use ROM Manager, so make sure to root it after running the Revolutionary tool.
The G2 (AT&T) stock Browser supports Adobe Flash Player. Just go to Adobe's Archived Flash Player versions and download the latest version under Android 4.0. It didn't work on the Galaxy S4 4.2.2 stock browser so I thought it was worth mentioning.
Remember this works only on the stock Browser. It does NOT work in Chrome. Chrome does NOT support Flash!
And make sure that the option Enable plug-ins is set to Always on in the Browser Settings.
Very nice. I'm jealous. The Verizon version only has Chrome, no stock browser.

Verizon and their stuff....
I love Chrome but sometimes I just NEED to see websites that include Flash content and its awesome to have the option to see them if needed.
If you're on Verizon you can still get the AOSP Browser and add Flash. I just did it, but I'm rooted and I don't know if it would work on non-rooted phones or not.
Install the [ROOT]AOSP Browser Installer from the Play Store. Ignore the warnings and have it install the AOSP Browser. Then go into your App maager and remove [ROOT]AOSP Browser Installer just to clean things up. You'll now have the stock browser that works fine.
Then just follow the instructions in the OP to install Flash. Works great.

On my Verzion G2 there is no LG browser... just Chrome (which won't use Flash). Other versions of the G2 use the AOSP browser. You can have multiple browsers on the same device... no problem.

Does Capture Plus work with this browser?
Also, I've been using Dolphin Browser and it seems to support all my flash needs as well give it a try.
Does International version support flash?
Another workaround (Works on Verizon)
I also have got this to work with Dolphin Browser on my LG G2 Verizon flavor.
Doet the aosp browser from the play store have the PIE controls you can swipe in from the left? I hate having that adressbar popping up when I scroll up.
I tried the aosp installer last week, but didnt get it to work. Also tried some other ways of pushing it, but then broke the default browser in the progress. Dont want to reflash my rom again, but if it can get me the PIE controls I will keep trying it.
I've got the international version and the browser seems to have lots of bugs. Double tapping a column of text doesn't always resize it or align it with the screen properly, after a week my bookmarks disappeared and refused to come back so I had to do a factory reset, now the top and bottom bars no longer auto hide. I like the browser because it has extra features not found in Chrome but it feels like a beta product. I'm going to give dolphin and firefox a go.
Hi there... I have a new D800 and am trying to get flash installed by following the above tips. Even though I've tried several times, it's not happening. Could someone please tell me which flash version in the archived list you were able to get working using the default browser, unrooted, on the AT&T G2?
Thanks.... I am very hard of hearing and need to be able to watch the ASL videos online.

It works now but only on some videos.
Thank you !!
Thanks
Awesome. I had assumed that the stock player would have flash plugin installed, and when I tried to open a site with flash, was surprised to find that it couldn't handle it. Now I am able to. Thanks for the info.
AWESOME! Just wish I had seen this over the weekend when I was trying to watch college football on CBS while on my way to my outlaws! I couldn't get flash to work on anything.
I'm on Verizon and I just installed the Flash for Android 4.0 and this browser:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.android.browser
and Dolphin and both work just fine with Flash sites and the G2 has enough power to actually handle it. I have a feeling it would destroy battery life if used too much but for times when you need it, it's great to know it works, for now.
Not sure how many of you are Sprint users; but there was a software update released for the Sprint G2 last week that apparently (at least for my slightly disgusted experience) has REMOVED the flash capability from the built-in browser. Can anyone confirm?
Stock Browser KitKat
Verizon KitKat is missing stock browser, of course. Tried using the stock LG Browser from JellyBean, but it FC's. Does any variant have LG Browser on KitKat? If so, could someone please post the APK + ODEX files?
Good information.
Like what do you guys do? Just get alot of Xposed modules and replace the laucher with a 3rd party one like Nova?
All I did personally was remove as much bloatware as possible, and use Apex instead of Touchwiz. Haven't gotten around to rooting it yet, it's good enough as it is.

Got a list? I heard disabling screensavers wasn't safe for example.
Currently uninstalled all Knox software as well as the Hancom Viewer software (have the full versions only) via Titanium Backup. In addition I froze:
Allshare
ANT
Backup
BlurbCheckout
Bubbles (screen saver)
Business Week
Cisco Webex
Emeeting
ELM Agent
Flipboard
FW Upgrade
Gallery (I use Gallery KK)
KLMS Agent
Magazine Widget
Music
My Magazine
Netflix
NY Times
Pagebuddy Notification Service
Remote Controls
Remote PC
Samsung Push Service
Sidesync (I'm using Mobizen instead now)
Software Update (no point in updates, will break root if I do)
Travel Wallpaper
Weather and briefing (I use 1Weather)
Tablet is solid without this stuff and its helpful to pull things off that would otherwise cache in the background. Taking some of that stuff off frees up space for other apps to cache instead.
Debloat's half the fun. Running Xposed modules helps too.
ActivityFoceNewTask
App Settings
BootManager
Complete Action Plus
CrappaLinks
CustomShare
Disable Clear Defaults Dialogue
Disable Location Consent
MinMinGuard
Secure Samsung Clipboard
Tinted Status Bar
View In Play
Wanam Exposed
Xposed REcent Tasks Ram
Youtube Adaway
Are among the modules that I'm running on my Note Pro.
Root apps that I have include:
Adaway
Chrome UA
GMD Gesture Control
Pen Window Manager
Pie Pro (for pie controls)
Rashr (to switch between recoveries)
Sixaxis Controller (to use a dualshock3 gamepad)
Titanium Backup
Wanam Xposed
Xposed Installer
Out of everything I think I like having pie and gesture controls the most. It really reduces the need to move my hand down to the home and capacitive buttons. Full screen app switching is a breeze with gesture control for example whereby I have set it such that a simple double tap using 4 fingers on the screen acts as an Alt-Tab between apps.
Agreed. Not much else you can do. Although, instead of Apex, I sideloaded the Google Now launcher.
Also, if you plan on using multi-window a lot, try using MW App Manager. It allows you to add many more apps to the multi-window function, which for some reason Samsung severely limits.
Mighty Text or any similar service is great with this tablet, too. Especially if you have a bluetooth keyboard.

Just discovered it today pretty awesome. Also got a couple of xposed modules to disabble annoying messages like full charge and got wanam to tweak touchwiz a bit more.
So safe to uninstall Knox? Also thanks for the list!

This is my list for the note 10.1 2014, I disabled the same apps on the 12.2.
Regarding custom roms I don't really miss them. I have just disabled all the apps I dont need and gotten some xposed modules.
Bootmanager: Block apps from starting on boot
Cool Tool: ram usage, batt temp and cpu graph in statusbar
Wanam xposed
xuimod: animations, listview animations and overscrol animations
youtube adaway
I prefer being able to pick from xposed modules and kind of build my own rom.
Thanks.

Edited.
If you're referrring to the hit/miss issue with CF Autoroot then yeah. I've successfully rooted two Note Pro's so I don't think its impossible.
My suspicion is that the firmware that is on the device at the time of root and the recovery thats installed during each step is critical but when I suggested that in the thread some tried it and said that wasnt the case. For both of my Note Pros I had run into the same issue with the cache image file getting stuck and for both I eventually got things to work playing around with the recovery versions and keeping Odin from auto rebooting the tab until i was sure i had the right recovery on there. Odd for sure.

Flashing stock recovery and then flashing the root worked for me.

Yeah I'm referring to the hit/miss, as well as some comments saying you need a specific version for your tablet (I have a Czech KOT49H.P900XXUANC4 with a specific CSC which I forgot because I don't know how to dial *#1234# on my tablet.
Also there's a lot of different suggested methods, first of all where people mention files but don't actually link to them, and second where I hear P905 users say it's working and P900 users say it's not.
So I'm just too uncertain to try this. So if I understand correctly, P900 rooters need:
* The specific stock rom for their tablet (Get that CSC code and find it on Sammobile?)
* A certain recovery (what's this, kinda like ClockWorkMod?)
* One of the different root methods discussed in this forum (CF one is only one that works with P900?)
* Odin (I need Windows for that, right? I'm on Linux. I can use Windows at a friend's place once I'm sure what to do.)
My previous tablets and Samsung Galaxy S2 could be rooted using only a MicroSD card and no computer. It was all so easy back then.

I just needed the stock recovery, I don't think you really need the stock firmware unless you want to start fresh. Also the stock recovery is literally the recovery that comes with the device hence the word stock, for some reason I needed to flash it so Odin wouldn't freeze at cache.img when installing the root.

here is a link to my help thread and i will be updating it soon with hyperlinks or how to find them... did that help a bit?
All,
I wanted to try and compare the screen on my Note Edge to the screen on the LG G3. For testing, I decided to try to load up the same video in YouTube, simultaneously. I noticed the clarity was MUCH better on the G3 and was surprised. To verify the testing, I checked to see what resolution the video was running on both devices and discovered a big discrepancy. I chose a file that was recorded in 4K and found that the quality was set to 1440p (max the screen supports), but the Note Edge only gave the option to go to 720p...not even an option for 1080p. I did some Google searches to see if there was a setting I needed to adjust. Even after trying to install the latest version of YouTube from APKMirror, I cannot get the Note Edge to play anything above 720p. Is this a problem for anyone else? Any fix? If it were the same thing for both phones, I would just pass it off as a YouTube issue. Since I can get the higher resolution on the G3, however, I am wondering why the Note Edge will not. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE (Resolved):
This appears to be an issue more present with the Verizon model. After playing around with things today, I have been able to get the 1440 option to show up in YouTube on my Verizon model. Here are the steps I took to get it to work.
1) Go into the YouTube app and sign out.
2) Go into Settings>Applications>Application Manager>All and select YouTube
3) Clear Cache
4) Clear Data
5) Force Stop
6) Uninstall Updates
7) Turn Off
8) Reboot (*optional)
9) Install YouTube version 6.0.13 from here http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/
*Note: I tried the newer versions first, but it still only gave 720p as an option
10) Go into YouTube and try to watch a video that supports 1440p and see if it works (it did for me)
11) If it worked, go into the Play store and upgrade to the newest version (1440p still works for me)
12) If it did not work, try the steps again. I saw in another thread that it took multiple times for some people.
I hope this works for others. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

This is interesting as I was using the same internet connection for both devices and speed should not be an issue at all. I even tried my Samsung Note tablet and it also was able to play at 1440p. I will try again today to see if I have any better luck. Thank you for your response!
I would like to add that I have the Verizon Note Edge...not sure that matters, but wanted to relay that bit of information. Thanks.
I also have the Verizon Note Edge and only have 720p as an option. Even on WiFi.
I have the Tmobile Note Edge and I did a 4k video search on Youtube and was able to choose up to 1440p
sprint version , 1440 for me as well
Att can 4 k
I have tried with Att model with no issues
I have the Korean exynos version and mine is also limited to just 720p.

Hello,
I tried your method but it didn't work. I did try several times as you suggested.
Those steps did not work for me either. I appreciate the effort though.

Did you try going through the steps multiple times? I know others have had to do it multiple times to get it to take. It may have only worked for me because I tried the steps 5+ times as I was determined to fix it ?
720 for me also and on verizon. I think those idiots did it purposely
If you are rooted just just change version from 4.4.4 to 5.0 with root browser or es file explorer but smart remote wont work anymore dont know why but i dont use it

Unfortunately for Verizon suscribers they dont have root thanks to locked bootloaders. Sprint is doing the "cut your bill in half event" along with paying ETF fees so better get into your nearest Sprint store Verizon customers lol
