Some browsers are flash-compatible, but just test the sites you want to use on an Android device you already have - see if it works. If so, you're good.
Otherwise, you might consider building a mini computer for the task. Also a good idea because Flash is no longer officially supported and may stop working at any time since it's not going to be updated any more.

[Q] Please help a disabled user!

Hi There, I am a partially sighted user who has bought a motorola xoom. I also have an iPad and I have been looking for an app on the xoom which is built into iOS. It's the white on black feature, also known as colour inversion.
I have searched the market place high and low for such an app using all different search terms, i.e negative, inverted etc etc but I can't find anything. The native white background on web pages or any other text intesive apps really over strains my eyes, sometimes to the point where I have trouble making out the words of text. I also use the negative feature on my PC and is a much more comfortable experience.
I would like to know if anyone has come across such an app for android? I really love my xoom but I can't yet replace my iPad for using on the train to read the web because of my trouble.
Apologies if this was posted in the wrong section, it was difficult to know which category it fits into.
This might require root access. Anyways, good luck.

My device is already rooted but I still have no idea how to do it! Any ideas?
Your best bet on this may be to wait on chainfire 3d being updated for honeycomb.. one of the night modes may work great for you.

In the browser settings on my phone, I see an option to invert color of web pages. That could be a good place to start.
Hope you get it all worked out.
Thanks for the replies and suggestions. I was hopeful about the option in the web browser settings suggested but unfortunately this option doesn't appear in the settings for the xoom. Its a real shame re the complete lack of native accessibility options built into the implementation of the OS by motorola.

Anyone??? I am pretty desperate for something that can help. At least until the 3d solution mentioned above is available.

You can't change anything since it's within the app itself. I have that issue on ICS too. It's just an error on Microsoft's part, our device is more than capable to run the app if Kinectimals runs like butter. Just hang in there buddy, it'll get sorted out soon.
Can I change my build.prop to make it work
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium

No changing your build.prop does not fix it to the best of my knowledge. I believe it is a screen size/resolution problem, I believe they will address it when they update the app. If I hear differently I will let you know.

I have gede's ROM v1.55 installed on my KF. And I've the same problem. I am greeted by this message:
"Sorry, you'll need to browse to xbox.com for great Xbox LIVE experiences. This app won't work well enough on this device."
Other devices are experiencing the same issue -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1711315.html
According to XboxSupport Twitter account: The app is not supported for tablets at this time
Smart Glass
Will the smart glass app work with tablets
in the advertisement for smart glass they show a tablet
We won't know until it comes out.

you don't have flash player
even if you already installed it, it won't work because of ics.
there is one browser who support flash by rendering something on their servers, i don't remember the name but it has a bird on it icon.

I have flash and it works on there websites with video, on ESPN is not working and keep getting that message
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium
If video playback is working on other websites, and reading that error message, then common sense would tell me that ESPN.com has made the conscious decision not to allow their videos to playback on an Android device for whatever reason. Citing that it worked in the past doesn't mean anything because things change.
HULU does the same thing and blocks video content playback on Android.
because some web sites aren't using only flash to broadcast their videos, they are also using html5 with mp4 (i think) the player isn't cool like flash. but it has the basic fonctions.

Amazon Instant Video app from Google TV

I have extracted the Amazon Instant Video app from my Google TV device. It opens on the Note 8, you can select videos, but on trying to actually stream the video you selected, it crashes. If there are any talented people on this forum who want to try playing with the .apk file to see if they can fix it, or if there's someone willing to host this file, let me know and I will email it to you.

You would also need to get the Flash enabled version of GTV Chrome working, since that is really what the app relies on.
EDIT: At least that is the case on the Sony NSZ-GT1. If it is different for your device, I'll have a look, but from what research I have done, it is not an easy task & it will involve a few modifications that will not sit well with other apps or the Play Store.
Post it up though, I just got my dev environment setup on my new machine & the missus will be out of town this weekend.
Unfortunately you're right. The Google TV Chrome app will not install on the Note.
There doesn't seem to be a way to post files through the XDA app, but I can email them to whoever wants them.

Well, I have to report that I have had little luck getting this to work on any non-GTV device. I even built an AOSP build with using a GTC boardconfig. No luck.
I am very pissed with Amazon though, so I went & bought a LTE KF HD 8.9 & I am going to play with getting it working on other tablets. Man I hate the Kindle stock experience. Thank goodness for root. I'll let you know if I find a simple way to get it running, but it will take some time as business is wicked crazy right now.
Any luck?

Yes & no. I have firstly been playing with the Nexus 10 & the KF HD 8.9. I was able to finally get AVOD to work on the Nexus 10, BUT, *BUT*, I essentially had toport the entire KF rom to the Nexus 10. It is buggy & there are some graphical & resolution issues, but it worked.
The only other instance I have found was also similar. A guy got it working on a Galaxy Tab, essentially doing the same thing, porting the whole KF rom.
You could of course use a different launcher, but it is still ICS, 4.0.3, & aside from losing a lot of the N10 cool features, it really is far from stable. I don't have a lot of time for this stuff at the moment, work is crazy busy these days. At any rate, I am going to see if I can try to go about it the other way & try to port some of the KF framework & core apps to JB when I get some time. Right now though, it is a no go.
