For those of you that own either a Galaxy S4, DROID DNA or HTC One, the official Hulu Plus app was updated today for your device specifically. After the update, while watching your movies and shows, look for the new “hq” button, allowing for full 1080p streaming right to your device.

While this will undoubtedly raise your data usage, if you are on a tiered plan, I would highly recommend being on WiFi during use.

What’s New:

Now offering even higher resolution playback for the following devices:

• Samsung Galaxy S4
• HTC One
• HTC Droid DNA

During playback, look out for the “hq” option. You’ll feel like you have bionic retina implants minus the deductible and waiting for its invention.

Also includes fixes for some playback issues for certain LG phones and other devices.

Hulu Plus for Android Updated, Brings 1080p Playback for HTC One, Galaxy S4, and DROID DNA is a post from: Droid Life

After the latest update to the Galaxy Nexus, readers are sending in countless emails to tell us that Hulu Plus is actually working on their devices. Do note, rooted users still have been left in the cold. Do we have any new 4.0.4 users here that have also noticed this new compatibility with Hulu Plus? If it’s now working for you, enjoy it.

May we just say, “It’s about time.” Finally, Hulu+ has been updated to allow for select Android tablets running Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich to watch their favorite movies and shows. The list is not as long as we would hope and there is no sign of Samsung tablets, but we can cross our fingers that eventually they will receive some love.  

Supported tablets:

• Asus Eee Pad Transformer
• Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime
• Motorola Xoom
• Motorola XYBoard 10.1
• Toshiba Thrive
• Acer Iconia.
• LG G-Slate
• HTC Flyer
• Vizio 8″ Tablet

We tend to lean more towards Netflix around here, but we do enjoy Hulu+ from time to time seeing as how their library of content is much newer and stays up to date quite nicely.

Hulu+ Updated, Select Android Tablets Now Supported is a post from: Droid Life

Owners of the DROID RAZR or DROID RAZR MAXX who have been patiently waiting for Hulu+ support on their device, now have it. You can head on in to the Play Store and pick it up and watch all of your favorite shows or movies that are available. Unfortunately, Galaxy Nexus owners still have to wait for them to get their act together. Imagine a world where apps work for every Android device across the board. Wouldn’t that be sweet?

Hulu Plus App Finally Supports DROID RAZR and RAZR MAXX, Pick it Up in the Play Store is a post from: Droid Life

Within the last 24 hours, something happened to Hulu Plus. As you can see from the screenshot above, it no longer works on the Galaxy Nexus, yet did yesterday and every day before that since launch. It’s tough to tell what the Hulu team is doing or what their reason is for this sudden change, but we have reached out and will report back if we hear anything.

Cheers Richard and everyone else on Twitter!

Been disappointed at the lack of device support for Hulu Plus?  You may want to check out the latest update then, because 9 new devices were added.  The DROID Bionic, DROID3, Incredible 2, Revolution and DROIDX2 are just a few of the big players who are now on the team.  See the full list at the market link while you enjoy enhanced playback – the only real bug fix included.

Hulu Plus Receives Update – Now Supports the DROID Bionic, DROID3, Incredible 2 and 5 Other Devices is a post from: Droid Life

Orb Live introduced the latest version of their app this morning which just so happens to include Hulu support.  And no, we aren’t talking Hulu+ paid support, we are talking the free streaming you get when you jump on their site via computer.  To be clear though, the app isn’t necessarily pulling straight from Hulu to your phone, but is instead pulling a feed from your computer and then making it playable on your phone.  Did that make sense?

So in order to get Hulu up and streaming on your phone, you will need to buy this new Orb Live app for $9.99, install some software on your PC or Mac, and then have at it.  You can also pull any other media content that’s on your home computer (music, photos, videos, Pandora, etc.) – just make sure it has an internet connection at all times.

We just received a friendly tweet from a reader, tipping us that the Hulu Plus application was not showing that annoying red popup which usually states that their device is not supported. Having a Nexus S on CM7, which is always rejected by the Hulu Plus app, I have never been able to play Hulu Plus videos from the application. I immediately opened Hulu Plus, and sure enough, no red popup.

Anyone else that has been left in the cold by Hulu, we implore you to go check the app out, and let us know if you get the same results. If Hulu has decided to somehow turn off device checks, then maybe they are finally starting to see things our way. The open way.
