What rom for best user experience? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, what I need to know is which rom will allow me full flash support, and the ability to play music that I have downloaded as I love this tablet but it feels like a three legged dog in regard to what I can do!!
Or is this when people advise that I wait for the Cyanogen rom to arrive.

there are quite a few roms in the development section that have flash player pre loaded, as for music you can just use an app to play it (not really sure what you meant by that) or you can use something like amazon mp3 if you need to play music through the cloud.
Also in terms of flash i believe the stock browsers (chrome and maybe the stock browsers) dont support flash at all

I'm currently using paranoid android rom over in original development and I'm loving it. I found the flash apk off of Google and it works perfectly with the stock browser. As well, the whole app by app screen orientation selection is super nice. It's based on a cm10 port.

I'm running stock 4.1.1 with flash. Sideload the Flash APK and install Firefox Beta.
Works

EOS was nice cause they had a good tablet mode using the normal DPI.
Now there are a few other ROMs picking that feature up. Most all worked the same. Its just about which options you want. Everything is still new so some ROMs get features before others but eventually they'll all be the same pretty much.

[Q] FlashPlayer 10 for Fascinate

Does anyone know how to get the adobe flash player on samsung fascinate..i need some help plz.. hate no to been able to watch videos on regular webpages...
Yeah. Wait for froyo. Flash doesn't work well with 2.1. Your only option for now is to use a browser like skyfire that has a little bit of
Flash built in.

Skyfire actually converts flash video into html5 video using their servers.
anyways, he's correct otherwise.

And by that, he means it doesn't work at all. Of course it depends on how you define Flash. We have Flash Lite, which is good enough for some Flash-based ads and stuff, but not much more. The full Flash 10.1 plugin needed for streaming video requires Froyo, so until then, as it's been said, Skyfire is your only option. And just FYI, Skyfire's video quality leaves something to be desired.

I've actually seen a hacked version of Flash 10.1 posted online that works on some 2.1 phones, but it doesn't seem to work on the Fascinate. Just relax and wait for the update.
Gahh, Flash Lite is annoying, because it only runs the ads that no one wants to see anyway.
I found that flash 10.1 for Andy 2.1 APk. It installs okay, but I could never get it to do anything at all.

Does not support flash, but is Divx HD certified LOL. So Stupid to have the best hardware currently on Verizon with the oldest software.

MIUI flash

I am using the latest MIUI rom from the development section. There is a problem with the flash. When I play YouTube in browser, I get sound but not video. It starts working if I make it 240p. This is a problem because I use an app called flash video browser that let's you watch hulu and stuff. The audio works but not video. It worked on other rooms like coredroid.

Try taking the flash files from an older MIUI rom that worked and putting them onto the New development one? It's a shot in the dark and it's a long shot at that, so long shot in the dark; don't plan on a hit, but eh. What's it gonna hurt?
Try using an older version of flash player. Although if I recall, flash was always kinda buggy for me on miui even with said fix.

Ics missing key features for me on Tab

I have reverted back to stock 2.3.6 gingerbread for the time being on my tab until mtp is integrated so that it can be used to sync from windows media player . I also missed the 5.1 sound when using it as a media player and using the docks and tv out.I tried cm9 and aokp and both were great but apart from the UI which was great didn't make up for losing the facility to play all my drm protected content and also not being able to use sky go . If any of the devs of either ics projects can incorporate something that can make these features work it would be great or if someone can make an optimized theme for the stock gingerbread rom that doesn't alter the build.prop too much that sky go and mtp doesn't break I'd be very grateful

I agree. But I only use old tab for navigation now, so not a major prob.

Its not supported at all, though I haven't tried using dolphin browser. From what I know they still had a way of having flash work sometimes.

Not officially supported, you have to sideload it.

Works 100% perfect with aokp 4.2 browser , search the themes and apps thread to get a copy and directions
Just load the latest version of flash for android from adobe.com and a browser who supports the plugin e.g. firefox from market and you're fine. works great for me
I also find flash works better when you set user agent to android instead of desktop.
I'm using it with Firefox and it's great -- high frame rate, good resolution. It's almost as good as a desktop experience playing embedded videos.

adobe flash on 4.4.4

Hey all- I know the note 4 is going to have 4.4.4 and was wondering if the hacked flash player by surviveland works well on 4.4.4? Im referring to full screen and/or laggy performance in dolphin browser. Im stil on 4.1.2 on my trusty note 2 lol
TIA
I just can tell you from my S3 running 4.4.4 CM11 that Flash runs fine with Dolphin. Don't see a reason why it shouldn't work with the new Note

Thanks for replying. Had a chance to play with the note 4 at best buy and installed dolphin along with hacked flash lol it worked however since u have 4.4.4 I have a question... at best buy I wasn't able to get sound working most of the time. Does sound work for ur phone every time the video starts and are u able to adjust it using the volume rocker?
Yes, everything works as expected, no problems with sound. Even Maxthon Browser plays flash without issues, Boat Browser does not.
Anyway, you can't stay forever on an old Android version, can you?
I'm also hoping that they keep porting hacked Flash to the newer Android versions, so let's see about Android L...

Unfortunately u are right the new nexus 6 is showing promise though. Another candidate for me but yeah Im hoping they can get flash on android L
