I'm getting a lot out of this forum, so I thought I'd try to put a little back by posting a minor point I worked out for myself:
A couple of apps I've tried needed Adobe Flash Lite. When I allowed my HD2 to search by wifi, it responded with "Device not supported".
I went to the Adobe site and downloaded the lastest version for Windows 6 Pro and took a chance. It works fine.... So far anyway......

Thank you for sharing this.
Did you try it with any of the 2 browsers?
Thanks for this. What applications does it allow you to use? Will it allow me to view videos on the bbc news site etc or youtube?
Does this really work? The link is broken ATM.

Mine is not working.... I've test the Opera and IE, still not working...
I think this is an older version? Flash 7 is pretty old no..? Plus, I will some times get flash and sometimes I will not on the HD2 in IE. Real strange. Whats the special sause here?
it is claimed skyfire can do away with the flash lite/ flash 7?

The new update (pushed to me in the UK 9/10/11 has forced the stock browser and Dolphin browsers to Mobile. Changing to any other setting in the browser setting has no effect. I has similar problems with various ROM updates on the Galaxy S last year with the same bug. Does anyone know of a fix? If not can I downgrade back to the previous ROM without rooting?
thanks
I see this issue also in the UK
There's a fix by Roach for Prime rom but it may be incompatible with stock.

Just Tried Opera, it went to the desktop version of bbc.co.uk a couple of times, but now it just goes to the mobile site... so not sure what the hell is happening! User Agent still set to desktop
Also , I couldn't get opera to play any flash content either. I have flash enabled in its advanced options, and I have tried "Enabled" and "Click to Play". It doesn't matter which I try , a big play symbol appears where the flash should be, but when you click it dissapears and nothing happens.
Any Ideas?

Yes, Prime is based on latest OTA (and always is) and personally I don't see a reason to stay with stock.
The fix we're talking about is included in cumulative 2.0.3 patch, found in the Prime thread.
Do not try to install the fix on rom any other than Prime (including stock) because it contains rom-specific framework files. Instead, follow the instructions to install Prime 2.0.1 and update to 2.0.3 and you'll get a smooth, stable, solid rom in addition to just fixing user agent stuff.

1)So are there no problems at all with this ROM? Did I hear there are some problems with some apps with de-oxed ROMS?
2) Can I do with any version of transformer? Does it have to be Non 3g or 3g, what revision..... I keep reading about other revisions of TF101.
3) Do I need root....or will I get Root?
TIA

The BBC web site is notorious for using the mobile version of their site.
What I did was scroll to the bottom, select preferences and when the next window opened I looked down for where it says "Desktop Version ~ Same version of the site you will find on your PC". I clicked on "Get this" and it then opened the BBC site in Desktop version.

1. I don't find any problems using what's in my sig. Fast, stable, battery efficient. Everything is running as expected and I use quite a lot - 112 apps installed.
2. I believe you can do it with any version of transformer, excluding those with late B70 or any B80+ part number, see a bunch of threads about this.
3. Depends; you can root first and then flash custom rom using CWM, or you can straight use NVFlash version and you'll get root right away. (Assuming your transformer is rootable, see #2).
whats the trick here.

It won't matter, 4.2.2 doesn't have the native ability to use flash. There are a couple of threads floating around with people claiming different browsers will work with flash on 4.2.2, but I have only tried "Boat" browser and could not get it to work. I also remember seeing a thread that has a mod in it that that uses a different build prop and modified APK to make flash work with 4.2.2 but I haven't tried it either. You can use the search function to try to find the thread I am talking about and maybe it will help you. Good luck.

Works like gangbusters with dolphin and jetpack installed
i tried the aosp browser approach, boat, and several other browsers with the latest adobe flash from their website. works sometimes.. wish google would realize that flash is still subsists today around the web. dont know why they got rid of it in the first place...

I'm telling you guys, I've tried all the browsers with flash- aosp, boat, naked browser, the only one which works consistently and absolutely flawlessly is dolphin with the latest flash from Adobe's website and dolphin jetpack installed and active. I've never encountered flash that wouldn't play properly, and it is always fully functional (unlike the next best browsers like boat and aosp, which for whatever reason seem to have difficulty using flash navigation/seek bars/play/pause, etc, which works great in dolphin). Give it a shot. You might have to do the dolphin trick to enable flash to "always on" (either by restoring a titanium setting for a previous dolphin install or by deleting a particular dolphin settings file in your phone, I forget which, but I can look it up if anyone's curious), but I'm telling you, flash works beautifully on this phone as long as you have the proper tricks/browser.
Now, as far as Google recognizing flash is still essential, I completely agree. Until the web is flushed of all things flash, it is asinine to argue that since flash is not as efficient as it should be, people shouldn't use it in their websites, and we shouldn't be able to watch it. The web is full of flash, and acting like it's not there doesn't solve anything.
Adobe Flash Player 11.1.115.58 - released on May.14.2013

Coming from the Note 2, currently using the S4. Boat Browser works flawlessly on any Flash website with the latest Flash Player.

How did you get it working on the AT&T S4? I tried and it would not work. Maybe your method differed from mine. If your method works then there shouldn't be a problem with others getting it to work. Thanks.

Nothing special:
1. I enabled Flash Player in Boat Browser Pro (Settings>Page Content Settings>Enable Flash/Plug-ins to Always ON)
2. Installed the latest Adobe Flash Player - use the suggested link/download.
Also, there seems to be a way to enable Flash support in the stock browser; I haven't tried it yet (although I plan on) but you can give it a try and let us know.
I don't know how you're using Flash with Dolphin. In the app itself it says that Dolphin no longer supports Flash on Android 4.1+.
It works with Firefox.

That is exactly what I have done and it acts like the flash player wants to start playing content, but just shows a blank screen and a few seconds later force closes boat browser. The only difference I can tell is that I am using the free version of boat browser but the flash plugin "always on" option is still there? I already know about the other ASOP option, but I think I might try Dolphin browser to see if it will work. So I am glad it is working for you, but I don't think it works for all.
**EDIT**
I didn't try Dolphin browser...too much crap involved. But I did install Firefox with the latest Android Flash APK and it is working for me just fine. If there won't be any ROMs with flash baked in (once the bootloader is unlocked) I will probably go with the ASOP option, but Firefox will do for now.

I keep my Dolphin browser at version 8.5.1, which I believe was the last version to support Flash. I ignore the dolphin update notice in Google play..

There are a variety of ways to get flash working on the latest version of Dolphin. The easiest is to find version 8.5.1 circulating on the web, install it, set the flash to "on demand" or "always on," do a titanium backup, then update to the latest version of dolphin, and then do a titanium restore of just the dolphin app data (not the app itself). This will restore the setting for flash to either "on demand" or "always on," depending on which you had set it to in 8.5.1. Besides this, there are a bunch of other methods including deleting a particular setting file, which will automatically enable flash. They are described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846225
But as I said, flash only works perfectly on Dolphin if you also install the Dolphin Jetpack from the Play store. If you don't, it semi works (similar to the way it "works" with boat... some files play fine, some stall, some crash, and most won't show the seek bar/pause/play during playback). With Jetpack installed and activated, flash plays just like it does on my computer.

Thank You so much. Dolphin 9.4.1 with flash enabled and Jetpack works perfectly. Flash works and live websites work now and no more crashes. I used to get crashes with any browser and any flash player version.

I'm using galaxy s5 with cm11.
The problem of my phone is really weird!
This problem only happens on using mobile network. (no problem on using wifi)
I can use google map, kakao talk(messenger), Hearth Stone(game) without problem.
But I'm not connected when I use internet browsers(basic one and chrome), gmail, facebook, play store, youtube and so on.
If I go to gumtree app (like craiglist in US), I can load people's posts, but not advertisements.
On the browsers, I see the error message:
The Web page not available
The Web page at
****
could not be loaded as:
net::ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED
Anyone notice the problem and solution?
Thanks for your help!
It's definitely a browser problem. Did you tried other browsers ?

cm11... I recently bought it as a used one with newly installed cm 11.
I think installing stock firmware is pretty hard, and hard to download I guess.
I've never tried that.
Change your apn settings, had a similar problem.
