CM7 Adobe Flash video is black - Thunderbolt General

Anyone know how to fix this??? Tried 2 kernels, permission fixes etc... its always black.

Try one of the older versions of Flash. The latest 10.2 and 10.3 doesn't work for me either. I had to use an older version of 10.2 before the update to get mines working again.

none of these work for me on CM7 :-\

Can we get more attention on this extremely important issue? Flash doesnt work. only displays black video and audio is there
NOTE : im using a G2 so the problem is across the board.

To get Flash 10.3 working on the stock browser you need to do two things:
1) force stop the browser process
2) Remove all permissions for /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data
*Fix also works for Dolphin. Just change com.android.browser to mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser
Changing the permissions restricts the flash plugin or the stock browser or the webkit or I dunno what from reading config.data. This file is screwing with video playback of anything over 240p.
What's weird is that the config.data generated for 10.2 and 10.3 appears to be identical, except for the ProductVer string. Since the file contains settings for h264 high, baseline and main profiles, there's probably some change in 10.3 to the way it uses this information.
Either way, this is a bandaid for those that don't wish to use Opera until the heart of the issue is found/addressed.

Flash works fine in Opera without any modifications.

[Q] Persistent problem with BBC iplayer and embedded clips ever after new ROM

Hi,
Any thoughts, ideas comments greatly appreciated.
Since purchasing my Desire S I have never been able to play BBC iPlayer or the embedded clips in the BBC website (specificaly those showing highlights of Scottish Football - yes, that's probably a good thing!).
One of the reasons for experimenting with Rooting and flashing a new ROM was the hope that this would provide the solution I needed as no amount of updating and reinstalling Adobe Flash, using different versions of this or using different browsers seemed to make any difference. Changing news.bbc.co.uk/... to cdnedge.bbc.co.uk/... doesn't work either and doesn't actually address the iplayer issue either.
Now, running a rooted Desire S with a Custom ROM, I thought that this would resolve whatever hidden issue was causing the problem.
All other video types play fine in the stock video player, so I don't think its a hardware issue.
Meant to add. I can hear sound fine, and can see the scroll bar marking progress of the iplayer episode/eweb clip as well. It's just simply that the video is missing.
Could there be an issue with the phone itself?
Mod Version: CyanogenMod 7 10082011 NIGHTLY
Device: HTC Desire S
Radio : 20.281.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
Kernel : [email protected]#1
Now this may be entirely unrelated and possible a shade off-topic, but if I use my DS internet browser to check my flash version using URL:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
It tells me that I have version 10.1 installed (note: take care not to confuse this with the boxes which say what versions are available)
Even after installing Flash version 11 from Android Market, the web page above still tells me that I have version 10.1 on my DS.
Other people claim that their DS responds with version 11 on this page, so I'm puzzled. But even after installing Flash 11 right from factory-reset settings it still reads wrong for me. Perhaps it's related to phone ROM version.
Flash 11 never seems to use any of it's cache on my DS - I do wonder if it's actually "connected" to my web browser at all!

Exact same problem with me. Iplayer just shows a black screen.

Has anyone tried the Chrome Beta apk with MeDroid?

I installed a Chrome Beta apk I got from some of the other forums here at XDA, but I seem to be getting FCs every time I launch the app, was wondering if anyone got it working or if anyone has found a fix for this issue.
It requires hw acceleration. Won't work for us yet until we get that achieved.
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium
That makes sense, I did manage to download an apk that does not FC every time, but I can't really says it's usable.
Here's hoping the CM9 team or some other dev manages to make it work someday.

I can't download it from the market since I don't live in the US, but I get the same results as you, it loads but all pages are blank, and I can see the synced results on the omnibox but no page returns.
I have it installed. No FC's, but it doesn't work. As stated, it needs hardware acceleration. It went through the entire setup, sign in, and import of all normal information. But when you try to load anything, you stare at a blank screen.

Jelly Bean and flash player still compatible!

Was I the only one who thought I'd lose flash capability after updating to jelly bean, because I didn't
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
It is already known that side loading Flash player will still work on jellybean.
I had flash installed before the update and it works just fine after without any problems
Restored mine using using Titanium. No problems so far...
You guys who are side reloaded your Flash app, what did you do before hand, did you uninstall Flash from ICS prior?
I upgraded to Jelly Bean, Flash was already present in ICS beforehand and it's still present in Jelly Bean after the update. No sideloading, back-up/restore required.
Flash never worked in Chrome, but it's always worked in Stock, and there's a new browser that I don't think many may know about, but Mozilla has a new mobile browser that blows the Android Firefox away, it's called Aurora and it's the only browser where I can visit Youtube like it's a regular Intel x86 browser and watch Youtube vids and comment without ever needing the Youtube app.
Yes it's Aurora and it's from Mozilla that makes Firefox. It's everything Firefox on Android should be.
Had Flash installed before the update, updated to JB, flash is still there, works fine. (Chrome has no plugin support whatsoever, Flash didn't work there on ICS either.)
There's been a thread about Jelly Bean and Flash since 15 July in the Android General forum. Do your research, seriously. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774336

Still in beta - not very stable. Won't stay open long enough to browse to flash sites to test it. Maybe not as compatible with 4.2.1.
Aurora is the alpha testing phase of Firefox. It's not a new browser.
I am using Cromi-X4.6.x
More often than not, Flash is unstable and FC's my stock browser, anyone else?

Haven't noticed any issues on Stock. Do you have Flash set to Always or On Demand?
JB works fine with Flash on my tablets and phones. Only does not work with stock browser and Chrome. Does not work on new Dolphin, but that is because the devs killed the function. Works fine with Dolphin 9.4.1 beta though.

You need to set it to 'on demand' in Stock, then it works.

Try setting it to On Demand. Might be be more stable that way.
Dolphin's newer beta with flash - bit.ly/10GcmeQ
The recently-released Next Browser (from the Go Launcher Dev Team) supports flash with JB, but it is kinda buggy. Seems to only allow one flash applet per tab.

[Q] Web browser.

Hi all folks.
I am wondering which web browser you are on.
And the point if you have adobe flash fully supported.

Running stock (which comes with cm10.1) and boat browser. Both are great, I just like to have a backup if some pages won't work properly. Everything flash related works just fine on both, boat maybe a tad better - I installed the latest ICS flash player *.apk, it's somewhere here on XDA - I could upload mine if you don't find it.
Thanks for pointing me in right direction.
Just have flash apk and found it somewhere on xda.
Now i am using stock rom on T-mobile software, which I am very happy.
Sometimes testing Opera 15 beta, but since doesnt support flash sites, wondering if to remove it.
Before I tried chrome (after using a while it was over 90 MB!!!) but was not fast enough.
So any other web browsers you have?

G2 stock browser supports Adobe Flash Player

The G2 (AT&T) stock Browser supports Adobe Flash Player. Just go to Adobe's Archived Flash Player versions and download the latest version under Android 4.0. It didn't work on the Galaxy S4 4.2.2 stock browser so I thought it was worth mentioning.
Remember this works only on the stock Browser. It does NOT work in Chrome. Chrome does NOT support Flash!
And make sure that the option Enable plug-ins is set to Always on in the Browser Settings.
Very nice. I'm jealous. The Verizon version only has Chrome, no stock browser.

Verizon and their stuff....
I love Chrome but sometimes I just NEED to see websites that include Flash content and its awesome to have the option to see them if needed.
If you're on Verizon you can still get the AOSP Browser and add Flash. I just did it, but I'm rooted and I don't know if it would work on non-rooted phones or not.
Install the [ROOT]AOSP Browser Installer from the Play Store. Ignore the warnings and have it install the AOSP Browser. Then go into your App maager and remove [ROOT]AOSP Browser Installer just to clean things up. You'll now have the stock browser that works fine.
Then just follow the instructions in the OP to install Flash. Works great.

On my Verzion G2 there is no LG browser... just Chrome (which won't use Flash). Other versions of the G2 use the AOSP browser. You can have multiple browsers on the same device... no problem.

Does Capture Plus work with this browser?
Also, I've been using Dolphin Browser and it seems to support all my flash needs as well give it a try.
Does International version support flash?
Another workaround (Works on Verizon)
I also have got this to work with Dolphin Browser on my LG G2 Verizon flavor.
Doet the aosp browser from the play store have the PIE controls you can swipe in from the left? I hate having that adressbar popping up when I scroll up.
I tried the aosp installer last week, but didnt get it to work. Also tried some other ways of pushing it, but then broke the default browser in the progress. Dont want to reflash my rom again, but if it can get me the PIE controls I will keep trying it.
I've got the international version and the browser seems to have lots of bugs. Double tapping a column of text doesn't always resize it or align it with the screen properly, after a week my bookmarks disappeared and refused to come back so I had to do a factory reset, now the top and bottom bars no longer auto hide. I like the browser because it has extra features not found in Chrome but it feels like a beta product. I'm going to give dolphin and firefox a go.
Hi there... I have a new D800 and am trying to get flash installed by following the above tips. Even though I've tried several times, it's not happening. Could someone please tell me which flash version in the archived list you were able to get working using the default browser, unrooted, on the AT&T G2?
Thanks.... I am very hard of hearing and need to be able to watch the ASL videos online.

Awesome. I had assumed that the stock player would have flash plugin installed, and when I tried to open a site with flash, was surprised to find that it couldn't handle it. Now I am able to. Thanks for the info.
AWESOME! Just wish I had seen this over the weekend when I was trying to watch college football on CBS while on my way to my outlaws! I couldn't get flash to work on anything.
I'm on Verizon and I just installed the Flash for Android 4.0 and this browser:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.android.browser
and Dolphin and both work just fine with Flash sites and the G2 has enough power to actually handle it. I have a feeling it would destroy battery life if used too much but for times when you need it, it's great to know it works, for now.
Not sure how many of you are Sprint users; but there was a software update released for the Sprint G2 last week that apparently (at least for my slightly disgusted experience) has REMOVED the flash capability from the built-in browser. Can anyone confirm?
Stock Browser KitKat
Verizon KitKat is missing stock browser, of course. Tried using the stock LG Browser from JellyBean, but it FC's. Does any variant have LG Browser on KitKat? If so, could someone please post the APK + ODEX files?
Good information.
