Hulu plus hack - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So if your one of the many people unable to watch Hulu due to a error saying you must be on carriers latest update then I have a solution. Simply use a app to access root then go to data/data/com.Hulu.plus/app_sslcache and delete play.Hulu.com.
Edit: when you start up a video I've noticed it may say unable to load advertisement from our sponsors nothing to worry about just let the timer for the unplayable commercial run down which is Like 20 secs and video should play but if not just change the quality of the video to medium and let buffer then change back to high and your golden

I haven't seen any adverse side effects to doing this so far. Not sure exactly what this file was for but it can't be to important lol

What about when it tells me I'm in Canada and then gives me the finger?

I assume my DRM problem is cuz boot loader is unlocked. Idk really know fer sure
Sent from my One X

Yeah. I couldn't watch Hulu till I deleted that file. It's because of the unlocked bootloader.
Sent from my HTC One XL

I deleted and still gave me DRM warning. Should I reboot after ?
Sent from my One X

I didn't reboot. That's strange cause all I did was delete that file and started up Hulu and it worked fine. Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling and trying again
Sent from my HTC One XL

I tried that too. No luck

Does not work. Galaxy Note (AT&T) running 4.2.2 Rom. Jan 2012 hacked APK appears to work...but boy does it look sad/old compared to the most up to date Hulu Plus APK.

Pretty sure it won't, I believe that Supports Samsung devices, and only specific ones.
The app actually doesn't work on the galaxy s or s2, also doesn't work on the HTC desire. Most likely doesn't work on the One S though

Works for me.
I've used it on my HTC One S without any problems. Derooted and then logged in to Play Movies easily!
Is there anything special that I need to do to make this work? I tried loading it with a rooted HOS. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated. It would be nice to play the HTC Watch movies I have paid for and the same with Google Play movies.
Thanks

Sometimes you need to reboot after de-rooting. I haven't had to with my phone, but some other phones I have had have required it. You can also try killing the app after de-rooting. I haven't had any problems accessing movies this way.

I'm really liking it.. but I find the voice sounds like a really tired old person. Any way to change that?
It worked once for me. Now I just get errors that it is down. I'm one the 1.83 leaked version.

works fine for me. is there anyway to activate it besides clicking the app icon? I tried saying 'hi galaxy' but it doesn't work
Update: some features don't really work like when you need to set up an alarm or save a memo. I guess it's because we don't have exact apk for the s voice to pull up.
It works for me. But there's a long delay each time it tries to process anything.

How's so? Don't you need install it in /system/app/ ?
I think I have frozen too many things, because svoice is getting FC after few seconds after start...perhaps text to speech?
I running stock just root access on att hox. I installed just like any other app. I got only one fc from asking it to play music. Navigation worked like a charm.

root explorer?
I have es file explorer. Do I need to purchase root explorer to change permissions for the voice.apk
apk works right from an install.
It's a little quirky, but it actually functions better than I expected it to.

No, you don't. Just tap and hold on the .apk file, in the opened menu scroll down and go to properties, from there you can change permissions.
Just leave check marks checked to:
User: read, write
Group: read
Other: read
Since it is Vlingo with a different look, has anyone noticed an improvement/difference comparing the two?

Ford Sync now appears to work

For those of you using the older style (mine is a 2010) version of the non-touch screen Ford Sync, it now appears that the AT&T One X will pair over BT without issue. On the 1.73 firmware the phone was unable to even see the system. Not sure if it was the OTA to stock 1.85 or flashing to CleanROM since i hadn't tried it again in weeks, but one of the two solved the issue.
Anyway, haven't tried playing media yet but phone calls work just as well as they did on my old iPhone.
I'm not having any issues with media play on my 2010 F-150.

Yeah, I assume it works fine now that i can pair. Did you have trouble getting it to work on the launch firmware (1.73)?

In my 2012 Fusion I haven't had any trouble. I just picked up the F-150 a couple weeks ago (couldn't pass up the deal) so I was already off 1.73 at the time. I can say that at times it does take a while for the media to connect. Sync just plain out rocks. Don't know if I could ever use a vehicle without it.

As far as i know.
I tried to update it, and i keep getting an error on the Ford SYNC website. They know they have a problem, but yet they say that there's no updates for my vehicle.
System used to work fine with my iphone. So i dont know if is SYNC or the phone.

Keep trying to pull that sync update. I guess its also possible that running cleanrom 4.0 made it work, but I kind of doubt it. Don't think the log mentions Bluetooth changes.
We almost certainly have the same Sync system, so don't give up!
My 2012 Edge used to give me grief and would not consistently pair either as a phone or music but since the OTA it hasn't been an issue.

Hmm, the updates aren't that big. I did mine once using a 4GB flash drive but I want to say the update was less than 10MB... Make sure your usb drive isn't locked >.<

My HOX paired with my 2011 Fusion (w/o Nav) without much fuss. Stock ROM. I had to jockey around the bluetooth searching a few times to get them to see each other, though. Music streaming works well, too.

I have found that Hulu will not work on a rooted device. I have it on y Xoom and had to return it to stock for it to work. I have not returned my phone to stock to get it working on it. I have not found a modded apk to work correctly on a rooted device. I believe I have tried the one listed in teh earlier post with little success...maybe i need to try it again.

Issue Adding Facebook to BlinkFeed

I found it weird that the phone shipped without Facebook installed. But after downloading and installing it, I was prompted to authorize HTC Sense. I did that, but I still cannot add it to BlinkFeed. If I check the box, it holds for a few seconds before unchecking itself.
Anyone else have the issue? I am running the semi-nightly betas from the Play Store.

I did.
However I did succeed in adding Facebook about an hour or so after this post. I had to uninstall Facebook completely, and then select the option to download it through BlinkFeed. It redirects to the Play Store and after installing again it worked as expected.
I know it sounds strange but had the same issue added out through the tv app and got it to work.
