Has anyone been able to get flash working with Dolphin? I have followed the steps recommended by the Dolphin FAQ which says to use the hacked Flash at dolphin.com/lab/en. It's not working for me.
When I visit a site it shows a black video screen but nothing happens. Before I installed the hacked Flash I would get a message on a site that says to download the latest version of Flash. I know that won't work so I have not done that.
I have Samsung SM-P900.
Edited to add that I have solved this.
On Dolphin screen, lower left corner, open that and go to Settings>Web Content>>set to On Demand.

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.
Im sure its been asked before.. but how come it wont play? Do i need a new flash update? Says it doesnt support my phone or some crap
I'm thinking the best place to ask that question would be in the ROM thread.
I'm using MikFroyo 4.4 and it was working fine. The initial fix was to the FlashPlayer.apk. There has been a recent update to FlashPlayer on the market, if you downloaded that update, that would probably cause it to not work anymore. Try uninstalling the update (if its even installed).
it was actually working just fine with the flash in 4.4 but they have since put out 1-2 new updates to Flash since then, and it broke my Hulu also. Uninstalling the updates made it work again!
Hulu blocks mobile devices. People have been getting around this by tricking the site into thinking it's a windows device by hex editing the .so file. I haven't been able to locate the most recent edited version of Flash but the previous version has been posted on XDA.
I just flashed MikFroyo today and the Hulu works on mine.... I havent updated the Flash that I know of..

Easiest way to watch Hulu is to use the app that Mik included with the rom. After you choose video you want to view, make sure you click the hourglass when the window appears.
If you are trying to use your browser to use hulu.com, you need to change your browser settings to NOT view as a mobile website, and it should work fine as well!
Also, I am pretty sure if you update Flash from the Market you will lose the hulu mod.
Hope this helps!
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.
Does anyone know why after putting on custom roms hulu breaks?
Also if i flash back to stock will that fix it? i dont want to hassle with it if it doesnt.
I see a modded version works but come one i want real support! i am a paying hulu customer...
Modded Hulu
Hulu breaks because it requires DRM verification that you can't get on custom roms. I know you said that you don't want to use the modded version but it works well. I have attached the link to the comment I made on the CM9 thread regarding it. Download the landscape version to browse in landscape. If you have ad away, follow the instructions in the second quote to allow hulu to work with ad blocking still on.

I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. The Play Store version of Hulu Plus was giving me a DRM error after installing CM9, so after some searching, I found a modded version that works. It is an older, less polished version and you have to disable ad blocking (use ad away) to get it to work, but it does. I am using the landscape version.

If you add "ads.hulu.com" and "p.hulu.com" to your whitelist in adaway you'll still be able to block ads from other apps. I know i get tired of rebooting the phone when i want to turn off ads to watch hulu. Hope this helps.

If I flash back to stock will it work again? And why can't whatever drm check they do be rolled into custom rooms?
Also just looked everywhere for that guide to go back to stock and couldn't find it. Anyone know here it is?

*EDIT*
From what i read is TWRP doesnt like to flash the stock roms. but CWM does it fine. I will have to switch over to CWM as i have TWRP installed currently.
Before i go to all this work i would really like to make sure that hulu works on stock with an unlocked bootloader.
Went back to rooted stock... hulu works fine.
By now most of you know the drill
But it went like this.
Flash CWM... Do this via fastboot, NOT ROM MANAGER!
Flash Stock
Reflash CWM... I think stock breaks the first flash
Flash root
profit.
Thank you to all the devs that work so hard.
One question remains.
Why does custom roms break hulu and is there a way to change that?
EEK i am a bonehead.... i never actually streamed a video from hulu i just got past the DRM prompt. I have a different message preventing me from watching hulu now. Something about Streaming Unavailable. make sure i have the latest official update.... :/
*EDIT*
A quick search finds this.
GRRRR
Apparently hulu doesn't work on unlocked bootloaders.
Man that pisses me off at hulu... They might lose a subscriber over this.

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.
