Hey, has anyone been able to watch streaming anime from sites such as goodanime or gogoanime? I haven't been able to view them with Dolphin Browser and flash 10.1. Any success stories or can someone try on their evos? Thanks.
Bump, anyone?
Have you tried skyfire browser.. You can watch some flash videos using the certain feature of the broswer. Some sites will work, some dont.
Try pocketvod.com and report back
Both recommendations didnt work, thanks for the help though.

Once you got flash enabled this is anime on the go, its full free episodes without some kind of gimmicky membership. Watching Cowboy Bebop at work definitely lets the time fly by. Hope that is what you are looking for.

funimation works for me...
Hey, i watch fullmetal alchemist on funimation's site all the time with the stock browser and htc's flash lite, it works like a charm! just long hold on the video and play it in fullscreen, performance seems better that way.
http://www4.funimation.com/video/?
flash content takes the longest to load, so be patient. I've had success over 3g and wifi... let me know if you have questions.
Funimation works like a charm, but sites like gogoanime or goodanime won't work.

veoh has a webkit compatible page (veoh.com/iphone) for iphone that not surprisingly works for android so long as you know how to find what youre looking for ex. hr1ge would be heroic age ep1...works like a charm
kumby works fine
Kumby is like gogoanime and goodanime, none of them seem to work... Am I doing something wrong? I've tried to open them by double tapping and still a no go. Any recommendations?

I want to see some anime on my evo!!!
Root your phone and install FroYo. I'm watching some random anime on gogoanime right now as I type this.
If you rent a movie though the market on your Rooted Moto Xoom and try to play it in the Google movies app you will get an error 49 (rooted device not allowed).
But if you go to www.youtube.com in the browser and login you can then play your movie.
I have done this process on my Rooted WIFI Xoom with 3.2. (Desktop UA string). Just thought I would share...
This will only work if you are connected to a network. So if you can tether or if you have a Verizon Xoom you should be good to go mobile. Or you can always use WIFI.
How many movies did you try it with?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
one so far I wanted to put it on here so others can try... I will try a few more movies this week.
Yeah nice tip.

Wait- so after logging into you YouTube you jump back into your Google Movies app and it works or.......?
Do you watch the movies on YouTube using the browser?
Watch movies on YouTube though the browser. Could of been more clear.

how smooth is the video? I kinda wish you could watch them offline but at least we can watch them

I only rented a SD movie in my first test I will try an HD soon the SD was very smooth.

Has anyone else tried this yet? What are your results?
just tried on my wifi xoom 3.1 with unlocked bootloader using the Bourne ultimatum (favorite movie) and it worked perfectly without a hitch.
this workaround will be useful until someone can figure out how to watch them in the movies app.

hmm... maybe if you did you tube sees the screen size in the browser and limits to 480...
im a newbie, so I apologize for the hand holding but can you please explain exactly how to view a Google video through the YouTube browser? I ordered a movie on Google videos and signed into YouTube, but where do I go from there? Thanks
if you type in"about:debug" (without quotes) in the browsers address bar you will get more settings. go to settings>debug>uastring and change it to desktop. then reload youtube and on the homepage there should be something like "don't forget to watch your movie" and that's it.

Ok, this is not an iPad vs Xoom debate but...I have in my possession an iPad 2 and a Xoom (perks of my work). I've had the ipad for about 2 weeks and the Xoom for only 2 days so I want to try to be fair but...
I think to myself, let's see how streaming video works on xoom compared to ipad. on ipad:
Netflix app - works great - Xoom - no such app
Hbogo on iPad works great - Xoom - no such app
Vudu on ipad works great - Xoom - no such app
Hulu Plus on ipad works - Xoom - what's hulu?
Just some other things I noticed -
looked for Wall Street Journal app which is great on iPad, but no such app
DirecTV app for iPad has some extra features than the Xoom app
Bank of AMerica App for ipad is nice but no such app for Xoom
Now I know, to each his own and purchase based on your needs but come on! Only thing iPad doesn't seem to do as well to me is flash of course.
Am I missing something?
I am a droid lover, Droid Original then Droid 2, then Droid Incredible etc. all rooted but a bit dissappointed in the feature list for Xoom. Am I alone?

Its not the limitation of xoom, in general its honeycomb OS itself. Some of the popular apps might showing up in market hopefully by end of this year.

Those of us that have rooted and flashed custom roms like Tiamat l.l have perfect ability to access hbogo, hulu, just about anything via the browser. I use Dolphin HD and the Tiamat rom lets the browser function as a desktop rather than mobile device. And yes, flash is great.
Bottom line...I'm not missing anything and I've got flash.

Hmmm, so, you can do HBOGO and hulu because you are rooted and can load another browser that is capable of running those apps? In other words, it's not the ROM that allows this but the rooted device allowing a different browser that HBOGO works on?
thanks for your reply
Your point is well taken. But the same list should include all of the sites you CAN stream from due to flash. I believe Netlfix and Hulu are both Silverlight based.
I stream from Amazon all of the time.

Huh? I was being serious. Why would you think I'm being stupid? I was just trying to get clarification and I fear you took me totally wrong. Just trying to clarify that if I root my Xoom i could then add other browsers which would support HBOGO.
Sorry if i offended
>Does anyone but me not mind the lack of streaming videos?
+1. Don't have a TV.
Its the same browser (or you can use a different one), its just changing your user agent report to desktop, not android. Hulu is flash, and you can modify flash to also report desktop, not android, and that enables streams. HBO is probably similar. And Netflix will come, as it has a tegra and Netflix/nvidia have said tegras have features for Netflix. Also, you can get play on, which streams from every source under the moon for a few bucks a month extra. And it plays nice with honeycomb.

Starting to make it sound better. I didn't want to root until I made a decision on returning it or not but I think I'll keep it and I just may have to get my wife an ipad
I did get a good deal at staples for 449 plus tax this week.
Thanks for everyone's comments.

im not rooted and yes it sux, I am actually debating on taking it back and just waiting until next year or see what Netflix/hbogo will do with the xoom2. I think 3.2 will be out this month so maybe that might intrigue them to make an app.

You can install flash_player and dolphin off the market. Go to settings in dolphin, and change your UA to desktop.
Don't have to be rooted.
I have a 47" TV that I use for video play back so that it why it doesn't bother me. Now if I was 16 and didn't have a tv then it would.
The app selection is pretty lame but as a backup I also have an iPad.

Sorry for being so touchy...maybe I misunderstood your comment.
Re-reading the thread, it came to me that people are really having two very different experiences with the Xoom. There's plain vanilla out of the box, which is nice but lacks some functionality, and the experience of those that have unlocked, rooted and customized their Xoom. The point I was trying to make is that if you're willing to be hands-on, you can have just about all the functions you are looking for.
That not only do they offer a netflix-like stream service with lots of free movies and TV shows, you can watch them on your tab with no issues.
-Login into Amazon via the stock web browser (desktop UA)
-look for Amazon prime instant video somewhere in the top left.
-pick a movie or show
-watch in browser (click on the expand button for full screen)
-???
-profit
Just thought I'd share this newfound info with my Prime brothers.

Agreed. I knew about it for a while, but then noticed that the prime section is severely limited. I also have netflix, so I have no need for the prime streaming.
However, it is nice that Amazon is extending some more services to its prime members.
I just found out about this morning, never really noticed it before. I just found it interesting that it was so easy to play on the tab.

Not sure, I'll look into when I get home. I believe they offer rentals and purchases like the market or media hub.

I've been a Xoom user sine February of this year. I love my xoom but for some reason my browser sucks it lags in certain pages like n4g.com or even ESPN.com I'm not sure why I have cleared the cache on it and its still does it. Does anyone have this problem?

Try typing comments or status-updates on Facebook.com with the XOOM default browser. It's an absolute nightmare.
that site opens and runs fine on my xoom. I'm rooted running odachi kernal but I keep CPU speed @ 1000. Still waiting till they port the full version of chrome with extensions for android. Til then it's sort of a second rate os but androids potential far surpasses windows IMO.
I love the stock browser.I make sure the Plugins are set on on demand so that it will not run automatically.it may cause lag.i just experience a slight delay on typing on facebook.

i hate the stock browser on teh xoom. its slow and flash is terrible. i've converted over to dolphin hd and its so much faster.
I agree that some of the other browsers are faster and render pages better than pos honeycomb browser but I am addicted to the quick controls. Every time I use another browser I find myself reaching for quick controls and when I don't find them I go back to stock browser.
