DONATE TO ME
Default Hulu Plus not supported on Skyrocket...WAHT!

Not that I would pay for Hulu, but I watch their free content sometimes. This is a travesty.

HULU works on the skyrocket........

just use one of the deodexed roms(like this one-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1341616), which will let you edit the libs of the Flashplayer. use the Libflashplayer.so hack that is on xda replace it and give it the proper premission and BAM!!!! you got hulu

have been watching hulu on my phone since melvin dropped his first rom.

if for some reason you just cant manage to find the Hack i will post it up for you and give credit to the Dev.

I know that but what I consider stock is a ROM that hasn't been messed with at all.

I normally run Cyanogen Mod 7 but it's not available yet.

No, I don't like the crap bloatware apps.

Thing is, I will not die without Hulu and it's not enough reason for me to grab the first thing that comes along and install it.

I am actually enjoying the stock rom on this phone. Can't do everything I am used to but, I have to say that it's been pretty nice.

I will likely consider Cyanogen when it comes out for this phone but I am going to have to think pretty hard at this point. That rom has caused nothing but issues for me on multiple phones in regards to GPS which I rely on quite a bit. I know there are fixes and I got my GPS working after a lot of hassle on my Evo but never had success fixing it on my Inspire. Been nice having my GPS working without an issue on my Skyrocket. So... At this point, I just don't want to mess with the stock rom until I have a chance to evaluate it more.

My phone is rooted and that seemed to be all I needed to edit the needed files in the past but I guess not in this case.

Didn't Hulu come out recently and say they are supporting all Android devices now or was that Netflix?

I agree the Stock rom on the SR is great thats why im not even worried about not having 5 or 6 roms to choose from. i thinks its pretty nice as is. but i like to be able to edit certain files. and i think all you need it root explorer and you CAN edit pretty much everything on the phone.

but i didnt notice that you cant edit the build.prop, or the libs. i had to pull the build prop and edit on my comp and push it back.

and CM7 is a buggy nice little rom one of those things were you deal with the problems cuz its so damn nice. same with miui.

What did you change in the build.prop? The manufacturer, the model screen settings? I have done this on multiple devices including my Honeycomb tablet. My HoneyComb tablet (Acer A100) is running stock rom and I know I was able to edit the build.prop on that just using ES Explorer.

Let me know what to change and I will give it a whack, after backing up the build.prop file and making a nandroid

I've been looking all over for the Libflashplayer.so Hack... I can't find one that applies to Flash 11.

Anyone find the link?
