I can't get HBO go or Hulu to work on the Note. With HBO, I get the start of the video with the HBO animation and music, but when it starts the video, I hear the sound but no pic.

Hulu just says it isn't compatible. This is for the plus version

Can anyone else confirm?

Anyone have a workaround?

Thanks,

I got HBOGO to work in the stock browser. First I typed about:useragent in the address bar, and changed it to desktop. Then I went to hbogo.com. First I had trouble clicking on the signin window, but eventually I realized I just had to start typing even though I couldn't really see the sign-in window. It took a few tries but I was eventually able to sign in. I was able to stream in full screen mode with a beautiful, smooth picture and good sound. A bit cumbersome but will do for now until the app is updated!

Looks like the update for HBOGO released today (12/21) enables viewing of the HBOGO library on the Note.

Its a Festivus Miracle!

Yes it works now, but the video quality seems low resolution and pixelated. Can this be fixed?
