[Q] Flash? - Galaxy 3 General

Does this phone support flash videos? Is it a software or a hardware based thing (flash support)?
I've got my phone flashed to froyo but I find flash videos not working. Is it really about our phones hardware not supporting flash?

Right. So Samsung needs to make it support it. Thanks

I think you can install flash application for using them at your phone (just basic flash animations, for games you will miss hardware buttons)
and if you want to watch a video at the www page you can use SkyFire Browser witch converts flash to html5 - it's just a workaround, not 100% suplement

Flash Player 10.1 for Android 2.2, can it be extracted?

Would it be possible to extract Flash Player 10.1 from Froyo? It doesn't show on Market for lower versions
I'd appreciate it
That's because it won't run on lower versions.
Ever think they do these things for a reason? (Resitrict OS version for certain apps)

Flash player 10.1 doesnt work without andorid 2.2 and hes speed.
Flash is using some new libraries from froyo, if you are on 2.2 then just get the beta from adobe.com, until it comes to RTM.
as the other 2 said, it doesn't show because it wouldn't work. Plus why would you need to extract it when the apk is a download?
It also kind of sucks.

You can't say that. Neither FroYo nor Flash 10.1 has been released yet to the general public.
Ok then what sort of flash player/plug-in inbuilt in the Desire's original Browser since it plays flash media!?
Flash Lite.

Which really sucks.
The few minutes I had with FroYo on my Desire were brilliant on Flash websites. No slowdown whatsoever.

Why am I running Flash 10.1 on my Froyo Nexus One then? Granted it's pre-release, but it's still Flash at its heart, and it's not intended for small screens.

You're running it because someone managed to extract the link out of an OTA update destined for journalists. That's hardly what could be called a general release.

Thanx mate
it wont work on android 2.1 so no point even downloading that apk.
if your on 2.2 then u can just visit the adobe site and download the beta.
Is the hardware accelerated flash app in 2.2 intregrated into the whole system or just in the Stock-browser and the Youtube app ?
i have backed up the flash 10.1 it is not apk file it is a .bin
you cant install it to nexus one 2.1
It's already been said all over the net and by the creators that it will not work below 2.2. I admire your determination in trying but anything below 2.2 simply doesn't have the performance to do it.

[Q] htc aria roms and flash player

How can i get a working flash player in my htc aria browser? i dont care about changing roms but atm i am running cm6.1... i remember with the stock rom i was able to watch some videos online but not all and will do that if necessary.
thanx
You're referring to flash lite plugin with is a part od Sense. Aria doesn't support flash because of it's hardware. If you want flash video in your browser give skyfire browser a shot.

It's actually pretty good, skyfire that is...obviously this only works for flash videos, as he said, and if you're trying to view interactive flash websites and things like that (I.e. HBO.com) its not gonna do you any good...that being said, I don't know how much better flash lite is at accomplishing this...

Re: tc aria roms and flash player
ok thanks for the info... one last question; will any rom with sense ui have flash lite in it or will only the original work?, and if so any reccomendations? i would prefer another rom to the original that allows the side loading of apps (stupid at&t)

Devinitive Answer - Flash possible or not ?

Good Morning,
After many weeks of wrangling with my new LG P500 and going through one LG service center re-instal ( my fault ! ) I am loving my phone finally. Yesterday someone put me onto Tiny Shark ( the music service ) and I thought all my Xmas' had come at once. However after loading a bunch of play-lists and then trying to play.....no sound ! I googled and found varying threads about putting flash on the LG p500 ( android 2.2.2). You can / you cant / you can / you cant / etc etc. Anyway I did find some threads with links to a .apk flash file which I SEEM to have successfully loaded onto my phone using app loader. It says it installed
However, tinyshark still wont play sound. It plays.,.....just no sound and yes I have checked my volume settings
So....please......can someone give me the definitive answer about flash on this phone ?
thanks
i believe the flash is only for the browser
If I'm correct it only works in the browser.
Sorry - you have both confused me !
In the tinyshark settings you have the option to check if flash is installed and when i do that is tells me that....yes.....flash is installed. it also says if there is still a problem using tinyshark to go to a browser and see if it is working there. So i go to a flash site and no....it does not seem to work. I am just confused as to why flash seems to have loaded for all intense purposes with no error messages etc.
its a buggy version of flash which is not intended to work on our phone but works 50% with some errors and crashes... if adobe dont release flash for armv6 we cant do anything much??

Yep, the flash apk found in the forums works well with Tinyshark!
Flash can work for content such as power point or flash games on mini chip but the is not enough processor power for video on the browser, they play but not properly

Big problem with the gallery and sensor.

Hi people
I have a sapo a5 aka ZTE Blade
It is an zte blade with a 5 megapixel camera.
But I have a very BIG problem, sometimes when I open images using the gallery, my phone crashes to the green android (reboot), in other words, isn't the gallery process crashing, is the phone itself.
With the original ROM (sapo 2.2 froyo) i don't have any problems but i don't like the original, it is too slow, etc.. I have the crash problem with all cm7 versions and other roms. I have friends with the same phone and they don't have any problem with the gallery. It's a strange problem because this only occurs with photos, I don't get any crash playing games, etc..
I don't get the crash with the cm7.0, but in this version the phone sensor doesn't work on the gallery if i don't install a properly driver.
So I think the problem is on the sensor drivers.
Thank You!

Can't Get Flash To Work On 4.2

After many hours of reading posts, installing different roms, installing all the flash apk's floating around the forums and trying every available browser, I decided to post here. I have not been able to get flash player to work at all with 4.2 on any custom rom. Every browser I have tried has crashed. I have been at this game for several years, so I have jumped through all the hoops, fixing permissions, fresh installs, etc... My question is, has anybody else had this experience? I am not really looking for testimonials of it working for people right out of the gate, because obviously it is by the lack of postings on this issue. If you fall into the category of struggling with flash on 4.2 and found a combination that finally works, please pass that info on. Thanks and have a great day.
Flash on 4.2
I don't know about on a custom ROM, but this browser plays flash on stock 4.2 with a custom kernel
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/52089051/HoloWeb.apk
Worked out of the box for me.
Hi OP,
I am facing exactly the same problem as you. Mine is a Nexus 7 3g model running on android 4.2 which I got yesterday. I have also try installing every possible flash apk that i can find...tried on alot of browser. Firefox beta, boat browser, dolphin version 8 to 9, holu as recommended by the post above. None can get to work. Its either the browser crash or some can't even display any flash plugin.
Did Google did any modifications to 4.2 that prevent flash from working?? If anybody has solve the problem please share your solution. I am also not a newbie to rooting and custom Roms as my mobile is galaxy s2 and is rooted with custom ROM. Just that I tot nexus 7 can install flash without Going through that. By as the op indicates, even that did not help him.
Thanks for any help in advance!!

Thanks for the reply. I was really not wanting to go the stock route unless necessary. I will tuck the download away and use if need be. Thanks for the response.
Flash is working but only for really small videos.
When it comes to bigger videos or apps it freezes the browser.(Both with Custom and normal kernel)

Thanks for the reply. I only tried it on several websites that had web streams that I visit frequently. Good to know that there may be issues across the board.

I tried that combination, didn't experiment with any other kernel but the one built into the rom. I don't know, hard to imagine it being a hardware issue with my device.

do you use any ad blocking apps? try adfree(play store free), itll stop a lot of those flash ads that give flash a hard time. what browser are you using?

Use the AOSP stock browser mainly, but tried boat, xscope and others that I have had success with on 4.1.2. I will try adfree with a fresh install and see what happens. Thanks.
Same problem here. It's working with some flash but definitely not all. Even the one on adobe website that checking whether flash is installed make browser crashed. ><
Hope to find solution too.
If you have flash can you watch hulu without a plus subscription?

Well, only solution I've found for now.
Use Firefox for android. It's only browser I've found working with almost all flash.
If you'd still prefer other browser as default, just switch off flash/plugin option in that browser to "on demand" (not always).
Then download Flashify from playstore, it helps share link to other browser with ease.
I use AOSP as my default browser, when I browse to a page with flash and I want to see, just share it to Firefox via Flashify.
That's my solution for now, hope this help.
Hi guys,
Seems like there is a mixture of success and failure of getting flash working on Android 4.2.
Care to share what device you are using be it success or failure?
I still can't get mine to work.
Nexus 7 (3G Model)
Stock condition: Andriod 4.2
I even come across a thread where after he did a factory reset the flash got working. I did my factory reset...still no luck.
Well, I'll share my detail.
Nexus 7 wifi model 32GB
Stock JB 4.2 Rooted
Flash player 11.1.115.27 (Try other version - same result)
Flash working on Firefox for android only, no other browsers.
Should I try factory reset then ?
I have it on my 32GB Wi-Fi. 4.2
Used the info from here (I take no credit for this) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774336

Hi OP,
Do you mean when you flash back to AOKP 4.1.2 you got the flash working perfectly? The choppy happen on the 4.2 is it?

Sorry, flash was too choppy for me with Firefox on 4.2. I reverted back to 4.1.2 until things get ironed out with possible updates or a solid solution.
