i have a similar problem
I can't view any online flash videos either. But when I try the browser just completely shuts down. No force close message just shutdown. Core cell Rom
@ kev
You need to download an older version of flash and install it or download the newest version off the marketplace and install it, search and you'll find em.
@n33dy
Never encountered your problem before. As in the screen is blank as if it was in standby? Or does it keep on one particular frame of the video and not move, but sound keeps playing, and the device doesn't respond?
If it's the latter, it is that you've run out of RAM and need to free it up by either closing some apps, or you can soft reset your device.
Or you could just try a different rom and maybe you won't have the problem anymore.
yes make sure you have adobe flash player installed from the android market!
Iv got the latest version of flash on already...

how did you get it working
I copied the system files into my root system folder... makesure superuser is granted to root explorer.
Step by step,
Open root explorer
Find your downloaded files and copy the files from the 'lib' folder.
goto your root folders and open the lib folder which is inside the system folder.
Paste the files there, this will replace the existing files.
Now go back to your downloaded files and copy the one form the etc folder.
Go back to root, system open etc and then paste that 1 file.
Reboot and it should be running now.

Thanks cause i was having that problem also

I have a confusion regarding android. this is very general query.
In Computer, first we have to have exe file to install anything and then we click on it to install the app on windows computer generally. when the app is installed on computer, we have installed app files in program files and then a dump (that is exe file) which we keep to install this app on any other computer.
Now, please let me know if this is applicable in android phones also?
I know that in android, there is .apk file instead of .exe file in computer. I observed that after installation apk file disappears. Is this true?
Not sure if in understood well, did you mean if instal anything from SD card? If you are asking that the answer is yes, i install everything from SD card and the apk file stay there after installation.
What if u install any app from Market?

Even in Android you can see the .apk files under /system/app. Also applications installed by you can be backed up & later restored using software available on market.
"Normally" these apks dissapear when you download from.market, but all of.your apks are stored in your phone, the thing is that you have to hav permission to do that, when you download an apk (the single file) and store it in sd card to install it, the apk is copied to the phone.

But if u back up ur apps as .apk and install them later using softwares (with exception of Titanium backup) u will loose connection between the app and android market (that means no updates)
the best option is to backup ur apps with titanium backup along with user data and restore it using the same
how do i access /system/app? Do I need to root the phone in order to see this directory?

Download Terminal emulator from market & you are ready to go to /system/app !!!!
You can also download Root Explorer and so the same
Thank all. Can you please confirm what I am writing below:
Suppose I buy a android phone (with android 2.1 so you cannot install apps from SD card) in which I installed an application named XYZ from Market. Now, there is a apk file for XYZ which gets downloaded somewhere in the phone memory and then it gets installed automatically.
Now, I just want to know, where does this apk file go after XYZ is installed? Does it stay in phone memory with the installed files of XYZ.
If it goes to phone memory and not deleted from there, then phone memory
if u install .apk from market it will be stored and installed in /data/app in phone memory. i do not think it is stored twice in the phone.
Do u mean to say that only the installed file gets stored and. apk. File got deleted automatically after getting installed?

Remember that an .apk file its a variant of the .jar files when you install an .apk this file gets stored inside the phone along with its necesary dependencies when the app starts, the os reads this file line by line while the app is executed.
In short terms the .apk file its the application itself that need a proper interpreter to run, in that way when you install and app to the phone, it copies this file and links the dependencies, so the .apks downloaded from makret are stored directly inside the app folder, in that way you can extract them from this folder and use it in another android phone.
You are relying too much on the windows ways of things. You see an exe file installion in windows essentially unpacking everything (other things aside) where it is needed and you then often see a bunch of files and folders. This is not what happens in android, the apk file is conserved when installed and can be found in the root part of your phone. Its data/app/ if installed on your phone, mnt/asec. (or something like asec) if installed on your sd card. You can copy that file to your sd card or send it to another device and install it again. I did just that today (I sent an apk to a friend)
anyway i dont think its same if i delete .apk + odex files from /data/app as i uninstall it with titanium backup. i think TB will be delete also data stored by the app inside the database (its the place where the apps are saving data, settings, etc...)
In case you are installing from Android Market:
1. When you are at market, it doesn't ask you to download. You will only get option either to install or update the existing app.
2. If you are a normal user, after installing, you won't be able to see the apk file anywhere on your memory card. But if you are a root user or with the help of special file managers and specific apps like root explorer and terminal emulators, you can locate those spk files in the phone's hidden memory.
3. If you are a root user, or with the help above mentioned type of apps, you can locate the apk files in phone memory and copy it on your memory card and distribute it to your wish.
4. If you are worried for paid apps and losing your phone or apps because of resetting or any other reason then stop worrying. A record of your paid apps is stored in google servers. So, even if you reset your phone or lose your phone, once you log in to a your new android device with the same google account, it will automatically show your paid apps. You don't have to pay for it again. Just need to install it again. This is applicable only if you are paying for the app through android market and you are logging into your android device with the same google account you had before losing your apps.
In case of installing via your SD card:
1. apk files are just like java files (.jad or .jar). You can download it on your PC from various sources and transfer it to your SD card or any of your friends' via USB, bluetooth or any other way.
2. After transfering the apk file to your SD card, it doesn't get automatically installed. You have to click it or open it to install, just like how we double click the exe file in windows.
3. Whether installed or not installed, the apk file you transfer to your SD card will always remain there unless and untill you or someone else delete it or you format your memory card.
4. Once installed, a copy of the same apk file would also be there in your phone's hidden memory, which you can access using special apps.
If you worried about losing your apps, try searching for other apps which backups apk... you can do so at android market. Moreover, also search on the net about having root access on your android device.. it'll let you access files in your phone's memory.
I hope, this would solve down all your queries !!!
Thanks next2 devil. Very gud explanation. It cleared almost all confusions. I have some more confusions that i want to clear out.
1) just a general query that just like exe file got unpacked after double clicking on it and install its files in c: genrally, does the same happen with apk, jad and jar files?
2) just want to clear out that phone memory which is hidden for normal users contains the copy of only those apk files that are currently installed on the phone and not the ones that are uninstalled or not installed at all?

1. I am not sure about JAD and JAR files, but yes, APK files unpack itself to get installed. You can come to know the exact size/space that would be taken by the app directly from the android market. Details would be given there.
2. Yes, the phone memory would be having copy of files only which is installed. There would be no copy of any apk file which in not installed.
Thanks next2devil. Your response give rise to one more query.
if i compare unpacking logic from windows, there is no need for original exe file to remain in existence after it has been installed and user can delete exe file after installing it. Deleting exe file has no negative impact on the working of installed app. Please let me know if this is also the case with apk files? If yes, then what is the need of apk file to remain in phone memory after it has been installed?

Short and simple. Deleting the apk file from /data/app removes the app.

I am a new user of Android. I have a HTC HD2 with OS Android 2.3.2. I need a program to be that the Memory card copied files in the root\system. Tried with some programs, but we failed. What should I do?
Sorry on my English is very bad.
use root explorer
where to find this program? I tried to knock the marketplace root Explorer but under that name, no software, there are some trugi but when I try to copy files I get a message "An error occurred on copy\move". I do not know what the problem is?
+1 for root explorer. It's paid app, but it's really worth the money.

root Explorer to my marketplace does not exist.
You could also use DroidExplorer which lets you use your computer to copy/paste/modify the files on your HTC Android phone. Use Google search for DroidExplorer and download the program onto your computer. Then you should be able to change or move any file from your computer, SD card onto the phone. Just make sure to do any changes, save to computer, then copy/paste onto the phone to overwrite the original file.
DroidExplorer not working on my computers. : (
I found the root ekplorer.apk on google and I installed it and now everything works great. Thank you all for your help )
I love the nexus 4 but the fact that my mac can't see it is really annoting. I could easily connect my GS2 like a pendrive and transfer files and also rearrange stuff. Now, I've searched around the web and found the 'Android File Transfer' app that allows me to copy files back and forth from my mac. I would be totally fine with this if only it allowed me to move files from on folder to another with my nexus. This is a ridiculously basic feature that is missing. i.e. say I copy a bunch of songs to the wrong folder on my phone, AFT doesn't allow me to just drag those files over to another folder on my phone. I now need to delete all those files and recopy them onto the correct folder. This is unacceptable so I'd like to know if theres a good alternative to AFT or am I missing something?
FYI: Im on 4.3 and not rooted
BUMP!
Some info I've found online suggests that running gvfs and Nautilus from MacPorts works well with MTP. I've had success with Nautilus in Linux but have not used Mac OS.
If your only issue is not being able to move the files to a different folder after they've been transferred, have you considered just using an Android file manager app to move the files once they're on your device?
I am trying to copy the contents of my Titanum backup folder to my computer by connecting my phone (LG G2 Running KitKat) to my pc via the usb cable that came with the phone and then enabling MTP transfer mode which works for the most part but when I explore the Titanum backup folder from my pc, there are no files visible despite the fact that they are clearly visible when exploring the same folder from the phone itself so my question is what do I need to do to make these files show up on my computer as well so I can complete the transfer ? I am running windows 7 pro and have the correct drivers for the device installed on my computer and have root access it that matters at all.
TIA,
MTCell
Well that's something with tibu and what you need to do to get them to show up is move/copy them to another folder on your phone(sometimes I move emu from the new folder to another folder to get them to appear on pc)

Thanks, I just copied and pasted them to a new temp folder on my phone called "TIBU" and the files are now showing up in windows and transferring as I type this. I can then just delete the temp folder and have a copy on my PC as well as the original backup on my phone. Silly extra step, but it works. Thanks again.
