nice, soon enough

Do we know what ROM that is on?

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.

This forum needs a 'Thanks' button.
Thanks. This is amazing.

Videos dont work well, but games and animations do. Homestarrunner works fine with that Flash installer.

is there a way to get the desire browser (flash), on another rom

I am on cyanogen 5.0.5.3(however its spelled) and love it. Tried the desire rom but had bugs but I want the browser , so, has anyone found a way to get the browser to work on other roms?
If not, that would be cool.
Didn't know where to pit this thread, general or development so I chose general..
Thanks
I switched to Desire as my daily ROM the day I bought the phone. To be honest there are still problems with the Flash on the Desire ROM (Modaco) whether it's non-optimized or a beta, I don't know. Instead of voiding my warranty to flash ROMs, I might have waited until June when Flash is supposed to be released.
I know this doesn't answer your question but I thought some noobs might want to hold off
People tried to get this... but I guess there are too many dependencies... besides, flash lite sux... wait a bit... and enjoy the full powered flash 10.1 when it releases...
There is no way to port anything from the Desire ROM to another ROM.
Thanks guys.. so the desire isn't flash 10.1? It played a lot of flash sites that require more than just flashlight.. but yes it was a little buggy... Anyways thanks for your help guys..
Waiting for skyfire to release their browser for android or yea, real 10.1. Regardless I needed to root, I'm a phone dork and a non rooted n1 just doesn't feel like I'm too much of a phone dude...
I don't think it is flash lite, but someone may correct me. I've been able to load dailymotion and other embedded flash just fine when Flash Lite wouldn't. Whether those sites were suddenly optimized, I think probably not.
That said, the only site I have not been able to load properly on Desire is www.sonyericssonopen.com (the tennis site)

Just wondering if anyone else has been brave enough to try this out? I have attempted to download this, and it downloads as a .apk.jar file...
I've installed it and it works well. It's not the newest version (10.1.61 if memory serves me correctly, newest version is 10.1.72)
I'm using JupiterDroids Pays Mod.
Hope someone has enough time to fully test this

I just tried it out and honestly do not notice much difference. The sites I would browse to still react the same as Flash Lite 4, I used the adobe version checker to confirm 10.1 was active. I guess I will wait for froyo, thanks for the attempt though
This is pretty much useless. It uses up 12MB and doesn't seem to do anything Flash 10.1ish. Everything looks like you're still using FlashLite (based on 7 I believe?).

Evo + Froyo + Flash = ESPN3 = World Cup EVERYWHERE :)

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.

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.

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

Installed Froyo and AdobeFlashPlayer beta v.2 and now it indicates that I have Flash 10.1.72.

I thought this didn't play flash video

But I am watching Monster's Ball on megavideo right now. Isn't this site considered flash? I'm computer illiterate so what do I know.

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?

[Q] MEGAVIDEO problem in Samsung Epic 4g with flash 10.1 for android 2.1

Does anyone know why i can't watch videos from megavideo with this or any other ROM?
I already installed flash 10.1 for android 2.1 and i can look youtube videos (like a desktop), but not from megavideo. It shows me another page
You probably need the version of flash in 2.2

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.
Moved to general as not development.

Your the one responsible for that Android Browser Hax eh?
since this is a Megavideo thread, may i suggest this application? it lets you download and stream any megavideo video, without flash player and without browser!
