[Q] Q:adobe flash not working on N5 - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do basically I've side loaded flash and I've installed many different versions of flash but it still won't work
The web browsers I've use haven't recognised that I have flash on the device
I've used firefox, flashfox, lightening broswer,maxathon, and xscope
Also boat browser always crashes as soon as I open it so I haven't been able to try it on that
So has anyone else got adobe flash working on the Nexus 5 and if so, how?
Or does flash not work on android 4.4 at the moment?

Flash isn't supposed to run on android anymore, and soon on every computer os, as it will be abandoned.
Using latest available apk in Adobe archives flash was running on stock browser at least, but perhaps Google decided finally to end the game.
If confirmed it will probably need a dirty dev hack to run again. I don't care about flash, but many many sites don't use html5 yet and need flash (Mega for example).

UC WEB
You may try UC WEB browser on Google play. Definately it supports flash in 4.3 version. And I have no idea if it will work on 4.4 as well.

flash based web??

my ks20 cant work with flash
eg youtube
i have installed the following opera and flash lite3.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423860
how can it work with flash?
in fact, i just want to view flash based web with opera, safari or PIE,
but not skyfire
how can i deal with it??
i dont know why my PIE can view flash even though i have installed flash lite 2.1 or 3.1
hope you manage to get your answer, we generally don't support non-HTC devices.
ok, thanks
I now use flash lite 2.1 and it works with opera 9.5 though some flash cannot be viewed

Flash Player on Captivate

Anybody got Flash Player to work yet? I've downloaded the flash_for_2.1.apk, installed it as a plugin but neither the browser nor OperaMini seems to use it.
I tried this apk as well... same results. I guess we'll need to wait for an different version to" arrive".
yeah its buggy as hell and flashlite doesn't work well.
if you need basic flash support, use skyfire
From what I read, installing Flash 10.1 on Android 2.1 does absolutely nothing. I read through huge threads of people trying to figure out if it did, but they were getting confused because they already had Flash Lite 4 which shows up as 10.1 in Adobe's about page.
All we have for now is whatever version of Flash Lite we have (3.x I think). Past that we have to wait for 2.2 to get a better flash player. I've yet to see someone actually get 10.1 working on 2.1, and I don't think it will ever happen since Adobe has said they use APIs available in 2.2 only. I don't know if you can update Flash Lite to get at least a little better experience, but I didn't find anything with a quick search.

Flash not working in browser

Hi all,
Just came to browsing some pages that have embedded flash but the pages didn't load the flash content, I just got the pages default "You need flash player to see this blah blah". Thought it might be a limitation of the built in browser but both versions of Opera do it and also Dolphin HD.
I clicked on the link on the page to get flash which took me to the market, where I couldn't do anything because latest Flash was installed.
Anyone else had this?
Its a flash player problem, not really related to phone or ROM. Downgrade it so you have flash working again, until they update and fix the issue.
Sorry, downgrade flash or the ROM?
Thanks

Flash. Go to menu/applications/manage applications , find flash player, click it, then click uninstall updates (or something like that my rom is in greek). then make sure you open market, go to your installed apps and untick the autoupdate option on flash player.

[Q] Flash Player 11 problems on 4.0 ICS powered tablet

Ok I have a android 4.0 ics powered tablet ... its a Coby Kyros MID9742-8 tablet.... and I can't get flash to work. I've downloaded flash 11 from various site but it doesn't work. It installs, but when I'm on the desktop version of sites that have flash supported stuff, all I see is a little blue box with a question mark in it. I can't access the google market directly, so I downloaded the flash apk to my htc amaze from google play and tranferred it to my device like I do with all my apps but to no prevail. Also I have download flash from various sites and it still gives me the same problem... I know its only a coby tablet, but I'm running stock ics 4.0 so I know its capable of running flash. I've read there is flash support for ICS so I don't understand why I'm having problems. Any ideas... please... and some direct apk links to what may have worked for u would be great. Thanks
Have you enabled plugins in the browser settings?
Yes plugins enabled is set to "always on"....

It was worth asking. How about different browsers? It could just be the stock browser that's at fault.
I use the stock browser and have no problems with Flash, but it's on different a different device (SGS2). It doesn't work in Chrome however, so it may be worth trying a couple of different ones.
Ok I got it working.... I downloaded a more updated flash apk from 1mobile.com....
same problem
I Have a Coby MID8042 tablet that also has 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich I have tried and tried to install flash and keep getting the same problems. All I get is the little blue lego with the question mark in it.
I have downloaded the latest version from 1mobile even, still same problem. Mine browser is also set to always allow plug ins, what else can I do? What is a good alternative browser for me to try for someone who is not that computer savvy?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Who are all these tablet manufacturers shipping out tablets with ICS, but without Adobe Flash support or Android Market / Google Play pre-installed?
What were they thinking?

Adobe Flash not working on Stock Lollipop 5.0.1... PLEASE HELP!!! :::::(

So far, attempting to run Adobe flash on the new 5.0 lollipop has failed without much success within the stock.
I am using the Wifi variant of the tablet, without any rooting, unlocking (etc)
So far i have tried running dolphin with jetpack, along with many modified .apk versions of the adobe flash player. I have also used Flashfox and firefox ,and i still failed. The problem i get is that the moment any browser encounters a flash content, the entire browser cuts off(shuts down) and it blacks out for a second. I have tried installing many variants, many beta versions, and the versions available on playstore of the browsers, and i still could not succeed to make adobe flash run at my tablet.
I would like to mention one thing, adobe flash did work for about 10 seconds while running flashfox, installing a modified apk of the adobe flash, and it shut itself. After that, i tried clearing space, and resetting, reinstalling, it never worked. I feel like there is some sort of provisioning system within the nvidia stock system which works to disallow adobe flash to run WHATOSOEVER.
If you guys found a solution for this problem, please post, anything is accepted. thank you!!!!!!

Yup have tried Dolphin, Firefox, and Flashfox with both the normal Flash Player and the modified flash player. Tried Beta and Non-Beta versions of the apps as well. Nothing works!

The only option available is to use Puffin Browser, or one of those the pipe through a server, It actually works well. Adobe stopped supporting flash on Android so long ago that it just doesn't work anymore.
For web video I use Dolphin in ipad mode, they play that way without flash, if they are available in HTML5

Yes but Flash Player still worked fine in KitKat, using the modified Flash Player if necessary. Flash Player doesn't work at all in Lollipop.
How did you successfully use Flash Player on Kit Kat? I tried downgrading to Kit Kat for that sole purpose, and it still wouldnt work. I did modified flash player, and all sorts of tips and tricks. In fact, in the kit kat version, dolphin jetpack is disallowed.
I spent the whole day yesterday to figure out how to downgrade to KitKat, and now that I did it, Flash still doesn't work. I thought that it was a Lollipop issue
How can I make flash work on KitKat? Thanks!
Puffin Browser is THE solution.
Thanks god, all videos in the internet are switching to HTML5. Even some porn sites
I really hate puffin, but I would like to have Adobe Flash on this behemoth of a tablet to run, because it would be great for adobe flash gaming, and the options are almost limitless.
I need to get adobe flash player to work on android 5.0 lollipop in firefox for my kids home schooling can you help
