Have you tried downloading Adobe Flash from the Market?
Have you tried running fix permissions in Rom manager?

Market flash works fine. I'm talkin about the hulu flash hack
^^ He means that may be you had it on auto update and it got updated through market. Working here though, just checked.
dude u are not crazy i get the exact same thing. i have tried to uninstall and re install it i have tried multiple browser, and i still have the same issue. your not alone but i have no idea how to fix it so i dont know how much help i can be.
Install the market version, play a flash video on youtube, uninstall flash player, then install the hulu version. It should work.
Flash tricks not working
uninstalled stock flash. Set stock browser to desktop. Installed Hulu Flash apk. nothing. played a you tube video and attempted to uninstall, reinstall. didnt work either. Cant find hulu flash to uninstall and now cant reinstall stock flash player. any ideas?
Have u gone to settings/applications ? Does it not show up there with option to uninstall? Also are u rooted? Bc I know that stock rom has prob with the mod.

Hi, I just flashed the ICS ROM for my g2x and also running CM9, everything works great but only few problems I found. My market place wont open up. I tried re-flashing the ROM but that didn't work. I also tried installing the Market APK file but that didn't work either. I cant even install apps through the browser. Any ideas as to why and how I can fix this?
Also I cant sign into any of my Google accounts and my clock app doesnt work, The alarms are still running but I cant open the app or edit the alarms. Any help would be appreciated.
maybe wrong gaaps file?

Did you flash gapps? This is needed for Google accounts and Market. Use the version dated 2/15/2012

Well when I flashed it I just restored my phone to my latest backup which had all the gapps. If I go ahead and flash the latest ones will it just replace the ones I currently have or do I have remove them first?

Have you quickly tried reflashing it?? I had to do reflash mine like 3-4 times before I get everything working right..... Weird that technology has to be this way!
Since ICS Flash makes all my browsers freeze up when trying to play Youtube content (especially fullscreen mode).
Yes i have issues playing flash video too.. i cant get twitch.tv to work. I have tried opera, dolphin and stock browser.. it was workibng fine before ics
hey yeah same problem here.
even tried with chrome browser and still can't play flash
Hmm, I tried flash in Dolphin on OTA ICS and it seems to be working OK. At least I was able to play YT clips. Maybe uninstalling and installign flash again will help? Or clearing its data/cache via applications management?
I cannot find anywhere to clear the cache on Flash. I can only uninstall/reinstall it. All I get is a grey window when I try to play any videos on youtube. If I force the user agent to desktop mode in Dolphin for instance it will play but if I try to fullscreen it it will just hang.
EDIT: I found a workaround. The default browser sends you to m.youtube.com and if I try to play a video it just gives me a grey rectangle. However if you press the rectangle the seekbar comes up. If you then press the seekbar advance a little it will then play fine and you can even fullscreen it. Nice big fat bug there though.

To fix Flash in ICS, follow these steps:
1. Wipe Data & Cache for the Flash App
2. Uninstall the Flash App
3. Reboot your TF101
4. Install the latest Flash from Market
Your Flash should work fine, after following the steps above. Let me know if this solved your problem.

Thanks! It worked for me.
After i updated to ics i did a factory reset, does that count as data wiping/clearing flash cache? Flash seems to work ok for me on some sites but as mentioned before twitch.tv doesnt play on any browser. How can i clear my flash data/cache?

Use Titanium Backup and Wipe App Data for Flash. You can uninstall the app in Titanium, too.
[edit: Titanium Backup is only for Rooted ROMs. You can go to apps in the Settings menu and select the Flash App if you are on a non-rooted ROM to clear data and cache, as well as unistall Flash. If it is greyed out, then there is probably no data or cache info to wipe and you can proceed to uninstall.]

My tf is not rooted. I have done what u recommended (app settings/clear cache/app data/uninstall/reinstall flash) still no luck with twitch.tv. Before ics, it was working perfectly. On another note, flash does not work at all on opera browser. Opera doesnt detect that flash is installed.
Has anyone on a non-root TF running ics got twitch.tv to work? Im starting to regret the update.
I have the same problem, even after wiping data and cache, uninstall, reinstall flash. For me this is no solution.
G'day...
I have exactly the same problem as described in the early posts. I have tried reinstalling the Flash player repeatedly with no success. I get similar symptoms in both the stock browser and in Dolphin.
I think I'll stop trying to fix it for a while before I throw the damn thing through the window.
My unit is an un-rooted TF101G and I only got ICS update sent out last week - I thought they would have ironed out all the bugs by now. Right now all I want to do is go back to Honeycomb...
I had the problem when I switched to ICS Gnufabio ROM. Flash and even youtube stock player would cause problems in HD fullscreen. Videos were unwatchable. I switched to CM9 ROM - the same thing.
However, since flashing Megatron 1.0.3, flashing gapps again and with TestyMeh 1.0 kernel running @ 1.2 it suddenly started to work!
I've been experiencing the same problem.
I've found that it sometimes works if I go into full-screen mode first, and then plug in the HDMI cable. It all goes black for a few seconds, but then the video shows up in fullscreen on my TV.
As for the freezes, usually I have to close the browser, kill it, open it (and sometimes repeat several times before I can even navigate back to the page), then fire up the video again. But I've found that sometimes I can just power off the device (ie tab power button to turn off display), then turn it back on after a couple seconds, and video starts playing again correctly.
What a pain, though. Never had these problems with Honeycomb.

getwilde, I have the exact problem as you. Did you, or anyone, ever found a solution??? Please let me know..
Hi all, wondering if anyone found a solution to this issue? I'm on stock rom 4.0.3 (no root), YouTube play fine for me as it's html5 but any online content that uses flash player lagging badly. Will HD rom fix this issue ? Thanks
Ps: tried full wipe and installed latest version of flash player, no luck though.

Yes and no - Adobe has dropped flash support for Android. The latest versions were for 4.0 in August 2012.
HOWEVER - You can still sideload flash. First, go to Settings - Security - Unknown Sources. Tick the box. Next, go to the Adobe Archives and download the latest version for Android 4.0. After it downloads tap on it to install it.
Flash works well in the stock Browser, Firefox, Firefox Beta and Boat Browser. Dolphin has disabled flash support for JellyBean last time I checked.

I know I sideloaded flash and it only worked when I got the right version, and to tell you the truth I haven't a clue whether it is still working as I am on KatKiss KitKat 4.4.v22 now and don't use flash pages much. I do remember a lot of people talking about sideloading Flash as the only way to get it to work.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply, this is exactly what I have as my setup. Flash is side-loaded but none of the ics version work. I mean they do but lagging badly. Prior the update to ics I was using flash side-loaded with no problems
When I go to stock they work fine, as soon as I flash a ROM they stop working again. I know these are all related so Im thinking its something in the software, but I have re-installed the camera.apk, tried different camera.apk, tried camera from play store, tried flashlight and screenshot from play store. None of them worked. It could be hardware, but sometimes the camera does work at random. I swear when i re-install some apps from play store after a flash it works fine. Im gonna try adobe flash and see if that does it, but let me know if you have suggestions cause its making me mad!

Im on SKY ICS 4.2F Im on the ATT google base and have flashed update 2.5 and 3B. I am also using the stock-modded kernel. Installing flash player did not fix it. This is making me really mad!

Have you try to start completely from scratch?
Flash one click leak from kennethpenn using odin - I use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652679.

Then flash your Base with OP instructions followed by your Update with OP instructions - I'm sure you already do, but follow OP to a T
I know how frustrating this can be but it has fixed numerous problems.

I have restarted from scratch 4 times. I think I will try to go back to stock one more time and test the camera at stock, then test it again after every step I do and see where it starts to force close.
