Evo + Froyo + Flash = ESPN3 = World Cup EVERYWHERE :) - EVO 4G General

Currently watching World Cup games through ESPN3.com on my Evo ...... SOOOOOOOO NICE.
Quality is much better than Sprint TV
You get to replay all the games and watch live ones
Full DVR controls with markers for each important part in the game
BTW, if Apple is still waiting for an example of Flash running well on a phone this is it.

have you tried other site
can you watch videos on fancast, online movie sites, or clicker,tv? what about dvix online videos?

Needs Froyo right? Just tried on Eclair and no go

damnn when are we going to be able to install froyo?

you can right now, there are two builds in the dev section, but niether are fully functioning

Can't you just install the flash plugin? I can watch several flash sites on my phone with 2.1

yeah i read somehting about the camera not working in one of them is there any clue when the official update will be?

Can you list a couple of those sites that you can watch? I tried Hulu.com and they don't support the Android platform and I went to Adobe for the plugin and they only support Nexus One on Google.

Too bad my ISP is not amongst ESPN3's affiliates, and besides, Nigeria lost to Greece this morning, so i'm in a foul mood already anyway !!!

You can actually watch it on univision.com using Skyfire from the market. No need for flash or froyo and the image quality is spectacular, even on 3G. It's in spanish, but who cares.

Does this one actually work on 2.1 or just makes people think it works when they're using flash.apk.

I installed this earlier today. I have seen some sites that I could not view, work after installing it. Maybe is placebo. Go to gohastings.com and tell me if you can view their webpage. This is one flash site that i know didn't work, and does now. Maybe is does work and there was just an error.
I did just try hulu and it does not work, some of the video's on justin.tv do.
ESPN3 does not

But thank you very much...
The only flash that kinda worked, was FlashLite 3.1, but it supports only old versions of flash and no video can be played. Also on page zoom sometimes the flash is placed on a wrong place covering part of the web page. So it is not very useful.

I attach FL 3.1 which I use.
Check it.
With this FlashLite 3.1 and the built-in Opera 9.5 the flash is not working correctly, especially for videos (it can not play flash video). On double tap, when zooming, the flash content is placed on wrong places covering some parts of the page. It was the same with R1 and R2 firmware. Plus, when it is installed, sometimes opera just quits with no reason (especially when there are flash banners on the site).

I agree with all of that. And I think there's no well-working flash yet.
BUT one thing is wrong: it plays most of videos.
I can open a normal YouTube and watch whatever I want.

But do you have any flash plugin installed?
If you want flash support just for watching video on youtube, I think the best solution is to install youtube app instead of flashlite

HTC Flash Player

Hey guys, I just noticed something when going through all my installed apps- The Evo comes with HTC Flash Player preinstalled on 2.1... And it works! Flash support out of the box. Was I the only one that was totally in the dark about this?
How do you get it working?
It just.. works. Browse to a site with flash content, and it should load.
Newgrounds works especially well.
cross my fingers for HULU!!!!!!!

Yeah HTC Sense comes with Flash lite. That's the problem though. It sucks lol. Oh and anyone who wanted Hulu once FroYo is released, bad news. Hulu blocked the user agent string fix so FroYo users can't get Hulu anymore.

Ahh ok. I've just heard so many people complain about it I thought it didn't play any. My HTC HD2 played almost anything. My iphone played nothing. LOL
I actually have HTC FLASH PLAYER 2.1 UPDATE 1. I do not see flash player light anymore. I’m running one of the modded for root 1.47.651.1 roms (look stock still) with new WIMAX and Radio. Thought it was interesting when I went through Titanium Backup. All flash works on my phone...some sites slower than other. I’m looking forward to 2.2 with Adobe Flash Full.
do you need root to play megavideo?

thank you ZENULATOR and vash8806!

I was skeptical at first... I never figured we could handle something like flash. This is a pretty big step if we can.

Stock Eris ROMs have flash, it's called HTC Flash. We just have the requirements that Adobe put out for 10.1
I have to wonder how many others are refreshing this page, wondering when a dev will say if this is useful lol.

My old Verizon HTC Touch played Hulu videos on Skyfire perfectly before Hulu blocked us from using it. Also, for some reason, it handled other flash sites better than my wife's Droid with 2.2 and 10.1.

HTC Flash is "Flash Lite" it's hardly full 10.1 flash.
video doesnt seem real, theres cuts in the video before and after he touches the screen
Im pretty sure it's real.. I think those "cuts" are just flash being somewhat laggy on his phone...
There is already a flash 10.1 for the eris flying around I have a copy on my computer i believe I'll post it when i get home.
EDIT:Here it is guys, but it only works on the stock browser, im guessing thats why it didn't catch much attention.

stock flash is still just flash lite with a diferent name i believe, this is a flash player that doesn't default to full screen, and has full functionality as if it were on your desktop(games,buttons,links, and such), only mini lolz

I think its full flash, I can play flash games on site and stuff without problems, only thing is that its a little slow and can only be used on stock browser on htc roms because it uses something that flash lite uses on the htc browser.

I agree. It's exactly the same as my wife has on her Droid with Froyo and it says "Adobe Flash 10.1" when installing it with the Adobe logo.

there is only partial Flash 10 support in Android 2.1. So until we get FroYo, that's what we got.
Skyfire doesn't work. So we have to wait. Thanks all of you.
