Default Perma-Temp Root + HULU FIX

ANNOUNCING PERMA-TEMP ROOT + HULU FIX!!!!

I've taken the excellent existing information from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1159354 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...688054&page=46

See the first link for instructions, etc. Basically just plug your phone into your PC, make sure USB debugging is on, using your phone as charge only, and that HTC Sync isn't running. Then open up the attached zip and run Run_ME_Fr3vo_ROOT + HULU FIX. OH, and I'm not sure if it matters, but have the latest Adobe Flash player installed on your phone before you start (10.3.185.25)

That's it! Your phone should be rooted AND HULU-ready until you reboot.

WHAT I DID: All I did was add a few commands that will delete your lib file from com.adobe.flashplayer, then install a different .lib file with correct permissions. Now, when you go browse Hulu with your stock browser or Dolphin (making sure your settings are set to disable mobile browsing, or set as DESKTOP VIEW, etc), Hulu won't recognize your phone as non-desktop, and you'll be free to watch Hulu all you want!

[Please note: this is my first time doing anything like this, as in first time ever creating a .bat file or doing anything with adb beyond the very basics; please bear that in mind when ripping me apart for being a noob ]

If this was helpful, please let me know with a thanks!

EDIT: Thanks to abe_ahmed09 for reminding me this works with stock browser too!

Unable to test this right now due to no PC access. But dude, no one should rip you apart, you are trying to help the community and I commend you do doing things that a lot of others do not have the ability to do.

Kudos,

Thanks man that's nice of you to say! I really enjoy XDA because (if I'm diligent) I can learn little by little, ask a few questions here and there, and look back and realize I've made a decent amount of progress!

works great! tried it without updating Flash and that was a no go, but once I updated it works perfectly!

Thanks to you and all of the devs out there for all of their hard work these past couple of weeks!

Default SWEET!

Glad it's working! I'll add emphasis to the fact that you need the latest version of flash for it to work.

Here's a question: are there any other programs out there that have to be tweaked AFTER root in order to work? What I mean is, right now I've got 10 or 20 root apps that work flawlessly after I root. But if there are good apps out there that require additional tweaking after root, perhaps we could incorporate that into the .bat as well

Should be--I just tried and it was fine.

Worst-case scenario, reboot phone and then run it! Either way, because of the nature of temp-root, it's all pretty "SAFE" at this point
