Can anyone else play flash type videos such as those on the bbc website, especially iplayer?
I have flash 10.3 installed, but when trying to play video on some sites, in particular bbc iplayer, I just get a little blue box showing.
Anyone else have this problem, and/or know how to fix it?
if you have root
uninstall flash player using titanium backup & reinstall it from the market it should work
Flash 10.3 is the what i installed from the market.
Flash Player should be a system app on Stock Roms. If you uptaded to new version, try to reinstall the update. Sometimes this helps, elseif try to to reinstall iplayer.
I'm running a custom rom off these boards.
I went into the market and there was a flash update. I've now updated that, and all works great.
Thanks.

Next time you post please tell us. This is a very important information cause usually flash is preinstalled by HTC. It's like always, the more information you give the better we can help.

I am also mourning the loss of our favorite Adobe Flash Player in Play Store. Bunch of timids, I say! Give up so easily to that rotten apple? .. I know, I know, the whole html5's grand entrance... The thing is many sites (abc etc.) have not moved over and they do require flash. Not a win in my books!
Anyway, Tab 2 10.1" doesn't want to play any flash content after installing the apk. Tried even few different versions with no luck. Got the blue lego with "?". Does anyone have a definitive guide or procedure to make it work; preferably on default browser or chrome :fingers-crossed:. If that is not possible, can download another browser (ugh).
Try this version latest work perfectly in cm10 stock browser
http://db.tt/TSLOgKcR
If you are in jelly bean cm10 i think will work
If you use dolphin and it did not work try old version of it by side loading
Always make sure in browser setting to make sure plugin as always on
As i know chrome will never operate flash it is html5 browser
So try stock and dolphin or older version of it

Flash will only work with stock browser (or any modified versions of it like Dolphin) and Opera Mobile. Firefox and Chrome won't support it.

Got it working finally! Some content seems to hang though.. for example, watching Family Guy on Fox.com would work until the ads come. Sometimes it goes through them and other times, it just hangs. Anyway, it's better than not having it work at all. :good:
Flash works on my Samung Galaxy Tab 2
Hello,
I downloaded the version of Adobe Flash found in this link mentioned above. It is Adobe Flash Player 11.1-111115012.apk
I put it on my external SD card and then put the card into my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. I installed the app. I also downloaded the Firefox browser app from Google Play. Flash works in the stock browser and in the Firefox app but not in Chrome. I did not need to use the Dolphin browser app.
Oh, I have Model GT-P3113. I just bought it a week ago and it has all the latest updates.
I was able to watch a show on ABC's web site. I have yet to try others.
I hope this helps.

Yeah Mandi, you can go to adobe official website, and they have it there. You can also download an app off of the market that will do this for you. To make it easier, here is the one I got from adobe.

OK I have gt-p5113 which JB 4.1.1 was loaded today thru normal download update. When I tried to side load flash it will not allow me to click on the "install" button in the apk file. I can only hit cancel. I was trying to get this to work on ICS 4.0.4 and was able to load multiple versions of flash but never able to get it to work. Now I can't even side load. Does anyone have any recommendations? I have this working with Boat browser and JB on Samsung Galaxy S3 SPH-710 but cannot get it to work on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.

I changed from CM9 to CM10 one week ago and I'm pretty satisfied with it. Except of that there is no flash player at all.
I searched all threads and posts on XDA and the web but i couldn't find any solution for this problem which works on the one s. This issue is very important to me because 90% of the whole websites still including flash player and browsing without it sucks big time!! I already installed the flash player apk but still can't get it to run. For me its one of the most important tools and i badly need it. Thats why i started this thread. Thanks for any answers :good:

Restore from Titanium backup? Paul O'Brian had a flash downloader app but it was pulled from the Market...maybe someone can upload?
to get the apk isn't the problem. i already installed this, but it will not work. the app by itself is working fine (i open it like on cm9 and it goes straight via browser to settings and it allows me to change the option) but when i open for example youtube by boat or dolphin it opens the usual flash window and it starts to load but this is it..
I remember reading something about Adobe Flash player not getting support anymore for 4.0.4.
The stock browser supports flash anything else like Dolphin will not work.

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.)
Look in the archived section in the link that's in one of the last few posts of that thread. Scroll down and you should see the latest flash player for android there. I've played flashed games on stock browser on JB

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?

Aah, if that's the case, I wasn't aware of that. I was trying to play a video from here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005HEVCUQ/ref=wtls_list_pr_7?ie=UTF8&redirect=true
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.
Flash
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.
NO ROOT REQUIREDHello all I just got back from overseas to find my Hulu + hack no longer works and Android has updated so much it does not include Adobe Flash anymore. The file system was so different on my Samsung G S4 Active running 4.2.2 I almost gave up on trying to get this to work.........well I never give up!! As you see in the video all you have to do is install it. I will still break it down.
WHAT I DID -
Almost everyone is familiar with modding the flashplayer.so file from AND to WIN. WIN only get's you to the Platform Not Supported screen. Well I took it to another level. I changed the same line to LNX 11,9,900,99 and the SWF line from 11.1 r115 to 11.9 r900. This yielded better results and came close to the latest player for Linux platforms. DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. Pages like Hulu or VEVO are checking the version of your flash player to determine your platform not the HTTP Headers. That AND 11.1 let's them know right off the back you're on android. Took a stab in the dark to figure this out. Maybe I shouldn't divulging this much but I want others to do it on their own. Shouldn't matter anymore since we will not get anymore updates for adobe.
**A note for those who are rooted who have a custom rooted rom with a custom kernel like me, I have Blackhawk kernel 1.8 for my Tab 3 7", the stock browser or any otherbrowser allows you to use this mod if it supports plugins. I'm guessing it will work with any stock browser in any of the custom rom that is rooted with a custom kernel**
Please read everything before proceeding !!NO ROOT REQUIRED (unless you had it preinstalled)!! Perform at your own risk. I am NOT responsible for your device!!
If you had the app preinstalled when you bought the device you will need to be rooted to uninstall it from the /system/app folder. After you have uninstalled any previous versions REBOOT your device. I would do it two times. I had to for my Samsung Galaxy S4. Don't know why......
Stock Browsers on phones like my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active do not support plugins anymore. FIREFOX is the ONLY apk I found that works with this mod on none rooted devices. This is because Firefox specifically points to the plugins folder while others only call for webview permissions to allow plugins. Please let me know if the apk does not work on your device or build. Please try Firefox browser with this mod first to ensure it works:
1. Download my mod here: ICS_MOD_FLASH.apk
2. Make sure you have install from "Unknown Source" is enabled in settings on your device
3. Install mod and enjoy
Only if you are rooted:
Download and unzip, then paste the plugins folder on your device in /system/lib it makes the video playback on HD more stable. In the old stock builds this folder was already there. It's not anymore.
plugins.zip

Hi, I've been messin around with this, and for me dolphin didn't work, flashfox didn't work. Maxthon didn't work, of course Opera didn't either.
Found a couple more that do though- Photon Browser and Boat Browser. I prefer Boat because Photon's UI sucks, and is more intrusive(hey, do ya wanna upgrade at start up), but Photons user agent options are more handy. Both latest versions got from G play store.
Didn't try FireFox cuz of it's size, am low on data, n can't move it to SD, phones already lagging. With Boat and Photon can be moved, plus cache to SD.
Questions, I'm rooted and put modded flashplayer .so in /system/lib/plug ins/ com .adobe.... and is working. Why is there also these in /data/data/ com .adobe....? Can I go ahead and delete these .so's?

Do not delete the data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer folder. That is where flash is installed like on a Windows machine program folder. You'll notice the other program folder are there to.
