Hello everybody.I need some help. I donwloaded swf player to play The Binding of Isacc. But there was one problem: swf player couldnt found flash player plugin.

flash stopped supporting android some time ago, that's probably why it cant get the plug-in.
im not sure if there is a workaround on the forums, you could try searching and see what you find.

This is a game?
I don't know that Flash on Android ever worked with games. It might only work for videos and other non-interactive content (like ads)

Other way around, really.
Firefox, Dolphin, Puffin, and other browsers support Flash, as do many older stock browsers, like the Galaxy S3 and my old Razr Maxx. With these you can watch videos from many websites that haven't moved on to HTML5. And ads too (yay!). But I don't know if Flash based games ever worked on mobile browsers. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't. Maybe they did, but don't now.

were on 2 totally different pages here.
im talking about "adobe flash player", what i believe would be needed to use flash for any app not self supporting (like they used to be).

i know they have been bringing it back in browsers but that wont help with a game, hence my comments about it being no longer supported.

Adobe Flash Hell!

My question/observation concerns the 2 different flash add-ons available for WM:
Flash 7 and Flash Lite.
One would think that Flash Lite is the update for F7 - One would be WRONG!
Older Flash sites just do not work under FL but work fine under F7.
However YouTube classic hangs IE and sometimes requires a reboot under F7.
Does anyone know whats going on with this? I would sure like to hear from someone on the Flash Mobile team at Adobe as to why FL does not play older flash sites.
Anyone else have these problems?
Let me also say I love Flash and Flex and as far as I am concerned, Adobe should just port F9 to WM and call it done!
uh .... you can compare the functionality of the versions here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/version/
AFAIK ... Flash lite is a "STANDALONE" player ... and Flash 6 & 7 is actually an ACTIVEX plugin. ( someone correct me if I'm wrong )
2 totally different beasts ... the way Adobe -->> formerly Macromedia had named the Flash Player version 6 & 7 is kind of misleading/confusing ... I don't know how many times I've seen people mistaken it for a "STANDALONE" player because its name have the word "PLAYER" ... etc
and why would a "LITE" be an update/upgrade ??? one would think it's the other way around isn't it ???
Still can't figure out what flash -lite actually plays?
Exactly what kind file does FL play?
When I run it and it gives me a file list -there is never any files in the list.
Even when there are flv files in a folder they do not show up.
The FL player seems to be complete useless!
Unfortunately the older F7 player causes IE to hang on YouTube so its pretty much useless as well now.
Maybe FL3 will correct this whole mess.
Your link was somewhat helpful btw!
Thanks!

It plays the flash 6(may be 7 too) based files nicely, but, if flash 8 or 9 just refuse to play due to the different infrastucture they use as compared to the older versions.
If given a choice I woul choose flash 7(the DLL one) with a player that can use the DLL to play the local swf files
PS: you may require a lot of RAM to play the files

I have been using the flash video bundle - just don't understand what use Flash Lite is at all. Seems a mystery to me.
As for using F7, like I said it is messing up pIE on Youtube - just hangs it.

[Q]HTC Touch HD: Adobe Flash Player issues...?

Hi,
I have a HTC Touch HD (Rom version: 1.14.405.3) and sometimes when I try to watch a video online (streaming using Opera or IE) I get a message: Adobe Flash outdated or Javascript disabled.
You Tube Application plays videos fine, but any videos on different websites does not... is this a flash issue...?
I tried to download Adobe Flash 2.1 or 3.0, but I couldn't find the download link on Adobe.com.
Is this a known issue...?
Flash on Windows Mobile
Flash on Windows Mobile is rather problematic at the moment and very hit and miss. Some sites work fine, others do not. You can try looking for a new version of Opera, which I believe has some better flash support. I've also found that skyfire is working quite well for some of the different sites I've tried (e.g. Hulu, Youtube, etc.).
I have opera version 9.5, build 2682.
Can I get the link to the cab file of Adobe Lite 2 or 3...? I found a thread here but the link was removed due to Adobe Compliant.

[Q] Adobe Flash Player for galaxy note 10.1 running 4.0.4

Ok I purchased 2 samsung galaxy note 10.1's for my mom and dad they are both running 4.0.4
My dad likes to watch movies and has alot of his movies stored on vudu but that requires adobe flash player to watch.
My mother like to play facebook games and those also require adobe flash player to work.
Is there anyway that I can get adobe flash player on these tablets so they can enjoy them the way they would like too.
Please help as I have tried everything that I can think of.

Hello just go to the website in the attached screenshot.
Remember when you install it that flash doesn't work with any browser but your default (internet).
I used this and it works. I watch movies, tv shows and sports.

I have tried this, downloaded and installed. Went on the net and opened facebook to try a game. The game didnt load on the first try as a matter of fact it kicked me off the net and back to the home screen. I tried loading it again and it loaded but after about a minute the screen went white with the play button in the middle.

Have you tried to play a movie or tv show? I'm certain that works because I do that all the time.

Thanks downloaded it, but it is not working. I made sure that the security setting was checked and then downloaded it from your site. Opened up facebook thru the supplied browser and could not play the games. I was able to watch the trailers on vudu but could not watch the movies I have stored there.
Any other suggestions.

ok thanks for the info, however 11.1.115.16 version is not listed on the archive page for android 4.0 devices.
I forgot to add that these devices are the GT-N8013 model.
Does anyone know where I can get this version?
When I installed the flash apk it didn't work at first. So I went to the installed apps and clicked on flash and stopped the app. Next I rebooted the tab and when it rebooted and connected to the net I went to the play store and it had an update for flash player. Installed it and its worked since.
Edit; The flash version on my tab is 11.1.115.34 if that helps......
The most recent Adobe update doesn't include mobile flash, Adobe dropped support for mobile flash player earlier this year. Sideload the last archived Android version that you find on Adobe's site. Eventually that version will quit working as Adobe makes more coding changes to desktop flash and no mobile device will be able to properly display any flash content.

I tried this, downloaded the .34 version and installed. Rebooted tablet and reconnected to the internet, went to the play store and there was no update to adobe flash player available.
I always have the APK available in my dropbox. I only have 11.1.115.20, it works flawlessly on my GNote II, Nexus 7, Samsung Tab 2 7.0, and my GNote 10.1
Flash works good on Firefox and puffin browsers as well

[Q] SOLVED how to view falcon cam on HD Revolution 3.6 ROM

http://www.pacast.com/players/falcon.asp
Using Maxthon browser or several ip camera players and nothing works. Any help greatly appreciated.
Do you have flash installed? It kinda works for me, I see the babies but then it crashes right away. I tried firefox and the default browser, they both do the same... so I googled a bit and it seems that Google made it way worse with 4.2.2 for flash support.
http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...deliberately-wrecked-flash-support-4-2-a.html
You can get flash from the adobe page, in the archived section. What Android version is Rev 3.6?
Thank you very much for the info. It almost plays for me also. I believe the ROM is ICS. After many hours of searching I believe the problem is the Shock Wave player they use. I can't find any flavor of Android that can view Shock Wave .asp streams.
A friend of mine said that Dolphin browser had shockwave support built-in, could be worth a shot.

I thought it was just because I was using ART but I guess we'll have to wait for a new version that works with 4.4
Using Boat Browser w. Adobe Flash Player (sideloaded) on Nexu 7 running 4.3.1 on-demand and it is great, no crashes or whatsoever.
Not with N5, however and Boat Browser is what I count on to watch streaming video over fiber @ home.
Probably need updating from the browser folks to make them get along with each other.
No go on my N5 with Firefox and Flash ver .81, tried playing videos from several sites and it didn't work

Okay, I know I am not crazy. Yesterday I swear I quickly watched a clip of a Prime video on Amazon on the N5 via Firefox Beta with the .81 flash apk. However, now now the Firefox Beta crashes as soon as it opens. I thought I'd try regular FF, which does open, but it says flash is not installed. The only devices I have in front of me are the N5 & the N7 & I am pretty certain I didn't confuse my forums/device yesterday, but I'll be damned if it doesn't work now, at least in the stable FF app. Of course, I guess it is possible, between a new device & the hospital & big UT Austin project we are working on. Damn it, maybe it's not such a good thing to order a new device while designing mechanical systems for critical applications.

thanks for the reply. like someone said earlier today, hopefully the browser devs figure it out soon. I used to use boat browser or dolphin basically every day to stream sports through websites like vipbox or firstrowsports. I found out that photon browser works but its a pain to deal with and not the smoothest since it u watch flash through a browser on their server. having smooth flash on boat browser or dolphin was one of the biggest reasons i switched from the iphone to android devices!
Flash on Firefox isn't working for me either.
I didn't install Flash Player but Flash animations seem to work with Puffin Browser.
Flash on Nexus 5
I've tried multiple versions of Flash and multiple browsers (including Firefox, Firefox Beta [which force closed], Boat, Dolphin, Chrome and Opera). None of them work on my Nexus 5 at the current time.
While Puffin works that doesn't really count because it's using a hosted version of Flash running through a proxy. Apart from anything else that meant I couldn't use it to access BBC iPlayer (which I have the app for, but was using as a prominent Flash site to test whether it was working).
I would much rather locally execute Flash, personally, so I'm not sure Puffin really counts as a solution.
Boat Browser released an update that's KitKat or 4.4 friendly, auto updated on mine and it also fixed the FC issue. My favorite streaming website is accessible again but I still have some issues playing in full screen mode.
Haven't got around to root it yet to restore mobile Adobe Flash's latest *.apk
I'm not having any luck with my nexus 5 either. If anyone finds a fix for adobe flash, please post. Trying to get flash working was one of the first things I tried on this phone and am jonesing to get it working.

Flash still does NOT work with Firefox or Firefox beta, kitkat on Nexus 7.
I need firefox because of their FVD addon.
This thread also confirms that no one can get flash player to work on Nexus 5:

flash was working fine in Firefox, Photon, and Maxthon on nexus 4 and 4.3.
doesn't work on any of them today after updating to 4.4
hoping browser developers will be able to figure it out since they were able to before.
puffin works great for most but not all sites.
and It's also the only one that allows you to stream a tv channel in one tab while browsing in another.
on all the others the stream stops unless the tab it's in is on top.
photon also has server based flash but you got to pay an annual subscription with them for that.
(correction: free with ads. subscription to get rid of ads. and some sites that don't work on puffin
work on photon. It also works with the streaming tab in the background)
why would you want a streaming window in the background? so you can listen to
various news streams playing in the background tab, or youtube, while browsing in the foreground tab.
android is useless to me without flash in one way or another.
No idea why if it can be included in chrome os it can't be included in chrome on android since
newer android phones are running more powerful processors than most chromebooks.
