Follow this guide Here.

If your device isn't supported by Adobe it's recommended you stay away from Flash since it's a RAM hog and slows down your browsing

I use to have it. It was downloaded from Google play and then one day it was gone.

Chrome Browser

Does anybody know why the Chrome Browser isn't compatible with our phone. I am on CM7, could that possibly be why it isn't?

Yes Chrome is ICS compatible and cm7 is GB just flash cm9 and you'll be good

I'd recommend you don't use chrome. For me it was very laggy. The stock browser from cm9 is a lot better

Yea i downloaded it from the play store just a few days ago. There's no way to change the user agent too

I just uninstalled it.
It rebooted my phone 2 times because it froze loading a page. The stock browser is just fine.
That's funny, it's been really great for me. It's smoother and faster than the stock browser for me on AOKP. I never had a crash with it yet. The syncing feature with chrome on my desktop is also very convenient.

I used it on CM9, AKOP, and PA and well really was not all that impressed. It served OK as a browser but things like not being Flash compatible was it's undoing that lead me to uninstall it.

You know adobe is stopping support for mobile flash in august right?
I heard something about that, let's hope they change their minds. Because that would mean the end of Kongregat games and other mobile flash games.

Wait, I believe you can change the user agent. It's in the menu when you select "request desktop site"
It has no devoted "desktop" mode. you can select load desktop but only for that tab.

Chrome has been great on aokp. Would recommend over stock browser.

There is actually a version of chrome ported from Linux that runs smoothly on our phones. I will upload the link if you would like.
Update: Here is the link. http://www.4shared.com/android/yzdjL9Va/ChromeLinuxPort.html

There is, for a mobile software vendor, no point in Flash anymore
http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/flash-focus.html
http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2012/06/flash-player-and-android-update.html
There will be no certified implementations of Flash Player for Android 4.1.
Beginning August 15th we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th.

Uh Oh, No Flash Player ICS?

So for android 2.0 and above there was "Adobe Flash Player11" you could download and easily use from the google play store, but there no longer supporting above android 4.0. any other way to get flash player for the browser?

It's not really a huge deal. You can still install it, they're just not supporting it

it still doesnt work though cause i got paranoid android build 8 and its running android 4.0.4 so kinda is somewhat of a problem...
Flash even on gb can be buggy, so in a unofficial ics expect it to be worse.
Just go back to gb if it's a huge problem

Flash support?

I know adobe ended flash support for anything higher than ICS and I found a thread saying it was still possible to get flash to work on jb but I can't figure it out. Is this possible?

Just use the site search function, and search for "flash player jellybean" and you will find step-by-step instructions. Or just Google it.
All you really need is the apk, and it install just fine. You just can't get it on the Play Market or from Adobe anymore.
CleanROM 6 r2 has flash built into the default web browser... That's what I use.

Also when you have flash player installed, you will need another browser. I use Boat browser, which can be found on the play store for free. Just make sure to enable flash in the settings. This is the one tbat works well for me.

You can download the apk from Adobe too I believe. I think it was under legacy or developer downloads, something like that.

Or just Google adobe ICS flash apk. That is what I did. Its still on my SD card, but cant upload from app.

Flash Player

I checked the Samsung galaxy s blaze 4G "bible" and it had a flash player download link but it appears to be broken... I later found another link, downloaded the apk, and installed it. it doesn't work ... Now I've heard that flash is no longer supported but will work with jelly bean? Is this true?

Well that sucks
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
yeah, it sucks not having flash support out of the box anymore. You can install flash and dolphin browser. That browser supports the flash plugin and i believe boat browser does as well. I personally don't care for those browsers but some people like them.
