First off all credit goes to nc2nc2 and wilshyre over in XDA , thanks for getting this to work on the Epic but you guys can't have all the fun :D

**********************************************
Preparation
You must have Clockworkmod installed
You mush have unknown sources checked off :settings>applications>unknown sources

Place the following downloads on your SDcard

Download Hulu flash installer (Voodoo and nonVoodoo) HERE

Download Hulu app HERE



Follow these directions
1.) Boot into recovery:Vol up+down+power, Samsung will flash twice then let go
2.) Scroll to apply sdcard:update.zip, press home button
3.) Now in clockwork recovery using the power button to select scroll to install zip from SDcard>choose zip from sdcard> select flash_hulu_installer_EB01-signed.zip
4.) once done installing hit search button to go back and choose reboot system
5.) once booted up go to your market find Flash player and uncheck automatic updates.
6.) go to your app drawer open your file manager (stock manager is called My Files) find the Hulu.apk and select it and choose install package.
7.) go back to your app drawer open Hulu app and select your show :D

ENJOY

(This will not work on Stock Browser as Hulu can detect Android powered devices)
Remember it is running on 3G videos may take a little bit to load,,,,and dont forget to adjust your screen timeout otherwise the screen will go to sleep while watching.
To adjust time out
Settings>display>screen timeout

Thanks for posting this here! I was wondering when it would show up on Android Central...

Unfortunately, I've been running this mod for the past few days but it has now stopped working since I upgraded to SuperClean 2.4 (Voodoo). I've tried over and over again to fix it but no luck =\

if anyone else had a similar problem that I had and was able to fix it, please post!

Did you try uninstalling the regular flash player, im running 2.4 nonvoodoo and its running
 
It won't flash in voodoo, don't ask me why. Get normal flash working, then disable lagfix and then flash the zip. If it works, enable lagfix and it should still work after voodoo conversion. I am not on EB01 anymore but I had to do this on SC 2.1 and 2.2

I did everything as you said now i have done it for a 2nd time and i keep getting "Unfortunately Hulu is not supported on your platform. We apologize for any Incomvenience." So dont know what i did wrong.
 
Do you have flash installed from market? Do you have voodoo? Are you using the hulu app or browser?
 
Yes on the flash no clue on voodoo so I'm guessing no and trying the apt

Does this break flash on other sites?

For this hack, Hulu doesn't work through the stock browser. Install Dolphin browser and make sure you are in desktop mode to get it to work with hulu.com. As far as the app it should work, but IMO the app is awful compared to the site, since the site lets you go full screen and you don't see the timeout issue.
 
Flash working fine. Definitely bypass the app and just use dolphin. Great hack. Is there anyway that hulu can block this hack?

I'm not completely familiar with all of the versions of Dolphin Browser, but the version I am using is Dolphin Browser HD. With this browser, even though during setup I asked for it to always run plug-ins, it still requires me to click a green arrow to load flash on the hulu site.

Click this green arrow and the video should load. I'm not sure what else would be wrong if you followed the instructions in the OP.

ok first off , are you using your browser of the Hulu app i provided?

also try this,,, open your normal browser , hit the menu button>more>settings>enable plug ins> on demand
 
Should I try downloading flash again or try reflashing the zip

Yeah, unfortunately Netflix doesn't use Flash so you're SOL :(

You can't really blame them for supporting iOS first, I bet it's easier (it has to work on one phone not dozens) and beyond that Android users are cheap.
