Guide to make hulu work on Galaxy Tab

---

With the help of another xda member. (Halfcalf) we now have hulu plus for our device. All you need to do is place the extracted files from the zip I will upload into your titanium backup folder then restore the app AND data. All three files must be in the titanium backup folder. Not just one big folder. It took me a few tries but it works. I'll answer questions as your post.

I also noticed that after the first time it said unsupported..i just went back to titanium and restored the data again..if you have any buffering problems..that on hulu not the app.

Im currently watching hulu on my tab as we speak

Please post back if this works for you.

Works great so far, occasional force close while scrolling but that's the only issue that i've noticed aside from the dreaded endless buffering which you had already mentioned is on Hulus end. Nice work...

Thanks yeah that's an older apk..I'll update mine and post a new one. The new one buffers allot too but may have less force closes..I've been using this since Hulu first came out and only posted it here because someone in my other thread said it worked on their tab.

Working for me. Thanks. Buffering is really bad for a lot of shows, not bad for others.

Do tab need to be rooted ?

OK this is good news as you don't need to install an app from other sources. It can be downloaded straight from the market and it works on ANY device.

So download the latest hulu plus from the market.
Download any root file manager. I use root explorer but any other file browser that let's u edit data folder would do it.

Open file browser and go to /data/data/com.hulu.plus/shared_prefs and open cSPrefs.xml

Now in that file there's a huge string named lastTimeOut.
In that string look for ns_ap_device= and replace what's in between that and &. In my case I'm running cm9 so I have ns_ap_device=p5& where p5 is the devices name. Change that to a supported devices name, I used Xooms device name Stingray so the end result will be ns_ap_device=Stingray&

Just replace that part without touching anything else. Save the file and reopen hulu. It should work now.

That will work even it the app gets updated and its an easy fix if you clear data or something.

Let me know how it works for y'all and remember to hit thanks if it helped you
enjoy your hulu.
