Try Google Chrome.. Thats got its own built in Flash support. Also, try reading around, Im pretty sure you can install the seperate flash .apk and it works with JB, its just not offically supported in Google Play, but it can be done.. People have had some success installing it on the Asus Nexus 7 with JB 411, so give it a go.
Im still on ICS 404, so cant help sorry.. but good luck

Maybe Boat Browser will do the job? I'm using it on CM10 though, but like it a lot!

Google Chrome has Flash? News to me.
You can Google "Flash for Android apk"
Here's a How - To from Android Central complete with a link to Adobe Flash.

No. I just installed the APK then went to whatismyflash.com and it matched with the new version.
It's still buggy, though. You can't pan around on a webpage if your finger is inside flash content, and when you zoom in or out flash content flickers. Also, you cant pinch to zoom in full screen.
DamageControl (3.1 I believe, eclair version) had flash 10.1 and none of these problems, not to mention it was faster.
Quick question, can this be updated to match the hulu hacked one some off us currently have running. I really would like to update, but know I will lose hulu...
Any info on an updated one floating around here on xda?

Hey I'm also on fresh 3.1.0.1.. you have to manually remove it via ROOT EXPLORER. Then REBOOT. Then install the APK that was posted here via mediafire.
I'm now on the latest flash. I noticed the last few numbers of the version are higher..so its definitely newer. I DID NOT find it on the market though.

You have 10.1 already because it comes pre-installed on Froyo. However our versions are still in Beta and this new update takes them out of Beta.

well within RE..i searched : " flash" it found it and I deleted the apk..then rebooted..
you have to tell RE to "mount as R/W ( read/ write) to be able to delete system apps.
so again, after you do that , you reboot and now you can simply install the new apk

I am currently using MIUI-MIUI.us_blaze_4.0.3-2.2.10 and it works pretty well for only being in its' alpha stages. It lacks hardware acceleration, (netflix, youtube, etc.), but it is updated frequently and is relatively stable and easy to install. You should give it a go man.
Edit: App I suggested doesn't work on the Fire.

Is there flash player for Jelly Bean?

I have read that there is flash player for some other devices with Jelly Bean, but has anyone got flash to work on Note 10.1 JB?
Flash is very important for me and way outweighs any advantage JB brings to the tablet, so I just want to make sure before updating.
Also, is there a reason flash is not supported officially anymore for Android? This has been probably discussed before, but I have no idea why they wouldn't support it. Wouldn't that make flash less and less relevant to modern websites? It's already happening, and I don't see why Adobe wouldn't want to keep web developers from moving away from flash.
Did reuse the flash from my ICS, downloaded a version 11.1.115.17 , now on JB it's working on Dolphin and Internet (= the one from Samsung) both based on safari.
But not on chrome.
Tested on the find-version-flash page of adobe.com.
I dont think chrome has ever had flash working, regardles of what version or what system, as far as i know flash was never implemented, unless thats changed

Correct. At least not for a good long while.
Chrome has an integrated flashplayer, and does work on my mac.

Pointing out to op, not to test flash installations with chrome, incase he was'nt aware that flash on chrome was never implemented.....would sort of defeat the purpose of testing flash on a browser that never had it implemented, as far as i know, im not upto date on chrome.......you said "not chrome", was just expanding on that........
Sorry if i came across rude before, was not my intent
There is an apk you can download from another xda thread...sorry I don't have the URL with me. It works as good on my 8010 running jb as it did on ICS. I don't think chrome implements flash but most other browsers do. You just install the apk and you will be good to go

If you expect an answer then more information would be useful
What ROM, Version, Kernel, have you actually installed Adobe Flash, an exact link to a video that fails ...

I've attached screen shots of my Rom details
With regards to which site its the 4od site and its every flash I try to watch. I just get black screen then connection timed out.
Adobe flash came with the Rom, but if I go to the web to install it says its not compatible with my device.

Side load flash, there's a thread on xda somewhere with a download link, if the browser works with flash then it should be fine, saying that if it's not broke don't fix it, I've been using an old version of flash for months

Sorry, I lost your reply in there. As Jugg1es said, try side-loading it. There is a permanent thread on XDA [App]Adobe flash player which is well worth bookmarking. I have tested the 4OD site on my current phone, which is running the latest version of Flash from that thread.
As an aside, it is better to tell people what ROM and kernel you are running rather than those screen-shots.

You have wrong information.. Nexus S support flash player.. on 4.2 jelly bean you only have to install last flash player apk, and it work with stock and other browser..
Go here http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html and search for "Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives" and then download the last apk..

Google/Adobe dropped support for Flash in Jellybean (4.1 and up). Although you can get it to work like MrMat said.
A simple google search could have netted you a ton of results and explanations why Flash didn't work...
Yep had no idea, I was on iPhone for a while. It was always there before so I assumed it was a device specific thing, didn't think a Google search would do much. Thanks though that answers my question.
