UPDATE 5/4: It has been determined, although it remains unclear as to why, that you need a modified kernel in order for this mod to work. It is my intention to get Hulu working across the Honeycomb platform, so if you have any input as to why Tiamat's kernel is required, please address it in this thread.
See original post in Xoom forum
Transformers: I will keep an eye on your dev forum and update this post when a fix is found. I imagine custom kernels are right around the corner.
Doesn't work for me. Hulu wants me to update to a newer version of Flash.

Can you confirm that have followed all of the instructions? Are you using Dolphin Mini? Did you change the user agent to desktop? Did you enable Add-ons to Always On? Uninstalled the old Flash and installed the modified APK?
I need to find out why it is failing. Thanks for your help.
not working
Not working here either. Followed instructions perfectly, and it tells me I need to have Flash installed to view the site...

Is there something different about the Xoom and the Transformer that allows it to work on one but not the other?
I guess no one has this working
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
It's working on the Xoom with users who are using a custom kernel (tiamat). Something in the kernel is making it work..
Unfortunately, we do not have any custom kernels, so there's no way for us to find out what is added in that one and add it here..

So great to see another update with many bug fixes, I notice one of them is better suspend outcome, in your known issues post you state:
"Sometimes wakes from suspend by itself (usually when suspending via the screen timeout)"
Does shutting off the screen manually still result in it occasionally waking too ?
Also Wifi, does that break no matter how it suspends, manually or timeout ?
Cheers
Yes and yes to both questions
Just it seems that the nvidia ventana drivers work quite well because the build is smoother than before
I'm impressed with this build, the setup is smoother, the gApps work for the most part, i am tinkering with SD card mount currently to see if I can fix it

Have you tried to reinstall the app on ICS yet? Alot of the apps that I have on HC usually run on ICS. I'm not sure if that particular one will install though. You may have to run it through a deodex, and try to install it via adb.
Did you find the workaround for the Wifi glitch stable?

up and running no problem, booted back into recovery fine, everything seems smooth. quite happy to run with this as i only use my tf for creating sigs and browsing the web / listening to music. Trying to find a screen capture app that works on this so i can show it off but the one i used took a capture and instead of the rom build details i got a recovery type screen but the writting was in green. kinda cool but obviously of no use lol
only question for me is: can future ics based roms just be flashed via recovery as normal?
i can jump back to h/c based roms from ics on my sgs2 via recovery no problems but im aware of hardware differences etc.
all apps from titanium backup running fine for me.

If you are already at ICS then yes, unless Paul or whomever decides that it's better to wipe first. Just remember, the TF doesn't flash the kernel (luna, spelling-- he he he) so you have to flash it separately to get back to HC. Otherwise a good nandroid should work just fine to return.

Hi,
This is a subject that came up while discussing something else in another post, but it's important to me so I hope posting it here will be helpful both for me and others.
Many times, apps that are available in the Market state that they are uncompatibale with kindle Fire. When I got the apk file from another source, I was able to install it on my rooted KF with no problems whatsoever.
I don't know why this happens, but I understood (from the other thread) that the device's ID cand be changed so that the Market thinks it's a different device and will let me download and install the app.
How can I do that? I have the original KF without any ROM changed, only rooted.
If someone could post directions as to how this could be done (newbie level, please...) it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Yossi

You could try sideloading your apps but I recommend rooting or installing a ROM based off stock like MoDaCo.

The problem with the default Kindle ROM is that the bar at the bottom is oversized like two times compared to the default Android one. A lot of apps are perfectly fine on the Kindle, but there are some that get cut off because of that bar. So because of that, they simply don't mark it as compatible. If we had a fullscreen option globally, it wouldn't be a problem.

I tried this, gave up and installed Gede's ICS.
Every time I tried to download & install an app with Google Play It would crash. I tried uninstalling, installing from KFU, fixing permisions with the TW recovery and still would crash.
The other issue with using the stock kindle and root is your Build.prop may prevent you from getting many things that you may want to run that the kindle may be capable of running but can't due to restrictions set by the dev.
So as we are all aware Adobe said they wouldn't support flash in Jelly Bean, as stated here - http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/375574/adobe-kills-off-flash-for-android
Of course on the Jelly Bean ROM I'm running flash doesn't appear in the market, but when I installed the apk, flash worked perfectly on a number of websites.
Just out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone knew the reason as to why it still works?! This is not a huge update to ICS so may be due to that but I was just being interested and wondering. Anyone have any insight?
Cheers guys.
EDIT: I have attached the adobe flash apk, the latest one. Install it on your device manually if you're running jelly bean and flash should work. Although I think we have established it will only work in the default android browser
They've only stopped support, doesn't mean that it won't work but if it doesn't on certain devices then they won't fix it or support it, because it's not a massive update there's a very good chance that it will work.
Basically the apk is the android software, the Google Play store filters out Adobe flash because you are running Android 4.1 jelly bean which explains why you cannot find it in the Google Play store.
When you install the apk, it will still work because Adobe have only stopped support for it, they haven't disabled it or blocked it. The term 'support it' means to give the product updates and provide help for users. Adobe are no longer providing updates (apart from security updates) and help to users for Adobe flash on android.

Use the stock browser. If you're using any other browser it may/may not work/may work slightly. But the apk in the OP is pulled from my motorola xoom and i have it installed and it was working on youtube and various other flash sites through the stock browser.
Dolphin HD browser won't load flash (and has a nasty nag screen if you try to enable it).
Many thanks for the information from here and other sources, as a result of which I've managed to get Flash sites working on the Nexus 7. In case it helps the non-technical, I've blogged full step by step instructions with screenshots on how to install Flash on the Nexus 7 and set up browsers (with link back to this thread), at my blog at consumingexperience.com (sorry, I'm new here so can't post a working link direct to the post).
I've tested several browsers and listed the results and browser settings in that post. Mainly I've tried them on UK TV catchup sites ie BBC iPlayer, 4od, Demand Five, ITV Player.
In summary, generally on the Nexus 7 I found Firefox Aurora (with the Phony add-on) and XScope to be the most reliable so far. An older version of Dolphin does work, but not as well. I couldn't get either Opera Mobile or Opera Mini to work.
Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this! I had another apk that everyone claimed was working fine but I have the CM10 preview build for Verizon Galaxy Nexus and couldn't play any videos until I tried your apk.

Yes you will need a Hulu account for it to work. Later versions don't work on unlocked devices as they check something that the device fails on.

I'm running the ultra fast rom on my rooted/unlocked transformer and have 3 questions/problems that are driving me nuts.
1) Can anyone tell me why I can't get any audio or video display on my samsung tv when attempting to use my hdmi out cable? No video or sound on the tablet or the tv?
2) I've installed flash player but I can't get it to actually work. Anyone have any suggestions?
3) What is everyones opinion of the best JB Rom/kernel to run on this? I'm pretty happy with the ultra fast rom but I still like to switch it up every so often.
Thank you to anyone who takes the time to attempt to help me. I appreciate it.
What are you trying to play? Like a movie on the device? Like off a memory card or its internal memory? or are you streaming something from a website(my assumption since you said you installed flash) try playing pandora or youtube. See if that outputs anything.
As far as the HDMI problem is concerned, I'm trying to thrown Droid TV Primetime over to my tv but I've also tried youtube and am unsuccessful with that also.
The flash problem I only really notice when I'm trying to watch an online fight or stream something similar to that.
Thanks for your time.
Adobe chose to discontinue support for Flash Player on Android JB. They're trying to push everyone to use HTML5. I'm sure there is info around on the forums about how to use flash or how to use a flash alternative, but that's why your flash player won't work.
I know I flashed a JB rom and hated it, but while I was on it I used Dolphin Browser and it has a built-in alternative to flash that still works. Give that a try.

The main thing that I'm trying to do is to use Droid TV and throw it up on the tv for the bigger screen. I've tried youtube but get the same results. It's been a while since I've tried but if my memory serves me, I couldn't even get a home video to play on the tv.
The flash problem is a different problem as I'm just trying to stream UFC fights for football games, things of that nature. I've tried my built in browser, Dolphin browser and another called Xperia Scope or something along those lines and get nothing. Thanks again for trying to help.

2. Like was already mentioned, Flash isn't supported anymore.
3. I'm pleased with the CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2.1) custom ROM for the TF300T (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055430). It's not the absolute fastest, but it has nightlies, and even though the developer has a lot on his plate he's been responsive and helpful.

Just to make sure I wasn't crazy (I tried to sideload Flash Player before on the TF300T and it didn't work, but you made me second-guess it for a minute!), I went to that site and checked out the downloads:
1. Double-checked the link on the Flash Player site (http://www.adobe.com/flashplatform/certified_devices/), and the TF300T isn't on the supported list.
2. Tried sideloading the latest Flash Player for Android 4.0 devices further down the page ("Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.36)"), and it installed fine, but then when I tried to play a video on Amazon Instant Videos it says that the version isn't supported.
So yes, technically you can install it, but it does you no good. (Unless you can verify another method, UndisputedGuy.)

Right...that's exactly the same link and download file that I tried. I installed that exact .apk file and then tried to play a Flash video on Amazon and it wouldn't work.
I am using JB, but it's the newest release (4.2.1, through CM 10.1). Not sure if that matters at all.
I'm not on JB 4.2, i'm just on stock and unrooted 4.1. I tried flash in stock browser (loaded up a flash game) and it worked although it was slower than previously.
Would it be possible for you to link to this video?

If sideloading Flash will only allow you to play games and other Flash videos (besides streaming services), that makes sense why I still wasn't able to, and UndisputedGuy was.

I was running into the same problem of after sideloading Flash, not having it work on any browsers for streaming something. I'm glad to know that it's not just me. Thanks for everyone's help and discussion on this. Much appreciated.
