Has anyone tried it with Dolphin?
I was able to use Dolphin Browser and Flash on the Note 3 and S4.
I have flash running in dolphin on both my S5 and my Nexus 7. I prefer it over firefox.

Firefox works with the stock Flash downloaded from Adobe's site. Dolphin requires a hacked version of Flash.

So as we are all aware Adobe said they wouldn't support flash in Jelly Bean, as stated here - http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/375574/adobe-kills-off-flash-for-android
Of course on the Jelly Bean ROM I'm running flash doesn't appear in the market, but when I installed the apk, flash worked perfectly on a number of websites.
Just out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone knew the reason as to why it still works?! This is not a huge update to ICS so may be due to that but I was just being interested and wondering. Anyone have any insight?
Cheers guys.
EDIT: I have attached the adobe flash apk, the latest one. Install it on your device manually if you're running jelly bean and flash should work. Although I think we have established it will only work in the default android browser
They've only stopped support, doesn't mean that it won't work but if it doesn't on certain devices then they won't fix it or support it, because it's not a massive update there's a very good chance that it will work.
Basically the apk is the android software, the Google Play store filters out Adobe flash because you are running Android 4.1 jelly bean which explains why you cannot find it in the Google Play store.
When you install the apk, it will still work because Adobe have only stopped support for it, they haven't disabled it or blocked it. The term 'support it' means to give the product updates and provide help for users. Adobe are no longer providing updates (apart from security updates) and help to users for Adobe flash on android.

Use the stock browser. If you're using any other browser it may/may not work/may work slightly. But the apk in the OP is pulled from my motorola xoom and i have it installed and it was working on youtube and various other flash sites through the stock browser.
Dolphin HD browser won't load flash (and has a nasty nag screen if you try to enable it).
Many thanks for the information from here and other sources, as a result of which I've managed to get Flash sites working on the Nexus 7. In case it helps the non-technical, I've blogged full step by step instructions with screenshots on how to install Flash on the Nexus 7 and set up browsers (with link back to this thread), at my blog at consumingexperience.com (sorry, I'm new here so can't post a working link direct to the post).
I've tested several browsers and listed the results and browser settings in that post. Mainly I've tried them on UK TV catchup sites ie BBC iPlayer, 4od, Demand Five, ITV Player.
In summary, generally on the Nexus 7 I found Firefox Aurora (with the Phony add-on) and XScope to be the most reliable so far. An older version of Dolphin does work, but not as well. I couldn't get either Opera Mobile or Opera Mini to work.
Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this! I had another apk that everyone claimed was working fine but I have the CM10 preview build for Verizon Galaxy Nexus and couldn't play any videos until I tried your apk.

I didn't really test firefox for android,i dont even use it on pc (IE9 is faster) but since it's stated on their official site i assume it would integrate seamlessly with flash once it's installed. Try installing it and test it.

Those of you looking for the Adobe Flash playstore apk that was taken off of the market. Well here it is
Why should you download and install this? Well firstly its no longer available on the market, secondly if you want any kind of flash support on your device when browsing certain webpages, watching specific videos then you'll need this. Most of the browsers even the ones on the market dropped flash support, i'm not sure why but they did, and having this installed will give you that flash support back And lastly, it only takes a few seconds to install and won't harm anything so why not have it just in case you need it right?
Links:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6260242/Applications/com.adobe.flashplayer-1.apk
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Bx4sftkd1mSvbE94YlV3dHFkZWM
That's the last updated version from the market. Pulled directly from my phone Just sideload it like you would any other application.
-Make sure "install from unknown sources" is checked on.
-Go into your favorite file manager find the apk and install it.
-There you go all done
***Chrome Browser does not support flash, the stock touchwiz browser does though***
Mods, i don't believe this is considered warez since it was never a paid app on the app store. But if this is somehow against the rules, please feel free to remove it and let me know
Disclaimer: I don't own this app, it was made by Adobe and then discontinued, i have simply provided a safe download link for anybody looking for the application so that they still have flash on their phone. I do not guarantee that it will work on your rom, and will not make any attempt to force it to work. Its the same application that was available on the market
Thanks. When jelly bean synergy drops I will be back for this.

If you are running jelly bean you can't. And if you didn't previously have it installed you can't either. This is so people who still want it can sideload it and get it from a reliable source
Edit, when I get home later today I'll upload it to a few more sites
Added a google drive download link and added the apk as an attachment as well

Chrome doesn't support Flash, and while I can't speak to all of the browsers, Boat and Dolphin both support it. Perhaps try a different browser. Everyone I have seen that couldn't make Flash work eventually figured it out. Be persistent.

no chrome support for flash. newer dolphin builds also disable it. I have tested it successfully with stock, firefox, tint, and maxathon browsers. I think boat browser works as well. jb still supports flash in sdk so unless the app takes steps to disable it (eg dolphin, chrome) there are many options.
