Um, I just discovered something very interesting about my Fascinate. It has Adobe Flash Player installed!!! Now, before you get too excited, it's not full Flash 10.1. In the applications list, it just lists as "Version 1", but I would say it's from Adobe, because it uses the official Flash icon.
To test this, I went to Hulu.com, which did not work, but browsing to other sites that use basic Flash animations, I found that while not perfect, it does have a certain amount of Flash functionality. I would call this something similar to HTC's Flash Lite plug-in. However, unlike HTC's version, which only works in the stock HTC browser, this Flash plug-in works in both the stock browser and xScope on my Fascinate (and presumably other third party browsers as well).
I dunno, maybe this Flash functionality was already known about, and I just completely missed it somewhere, but I typically keep up to date on all mobile phone news, and I had never heard that the Galaxy S phones have partial Flash support out of the box (thought only HTC Sense devices had that). It's definitely a bonus for me, as I thought I'd have to wait for Froyo for any level of Flash support.

this is flash lite thats on most 2.1 devices...
Okay, a bit of egg on my face then. I didn't realize that this was a standard feature of Eclair. Back when the HTC Hero/Eris came out out, the fact that they had Flash Lite was pretty special, but then again that was Android 1.5. I guess I somehow missed the memo on Flash lite being standard as of 2.1.
That is Flash Lite 3.0 which supports a LOT actually. Even then, you can install flash 10.1 on it. search xda flash on 2.1 on google
Flash 10.3 is out:
Flash Player 10.3.181.14
Unfortunately the usual suspects still dont work, ie Hulu. YouTube does seem a tad faster and clearer.
Ha! Tn the "description" is says "for android 3 devices, we highly recommend that you update your OS to Android 3.1 to ensure that Flash Player delivers the best experience possible."
Gah! I wish I could!

It is indeed 10.3. My Evo said it had updates and 10.3 was one of them.
I am still on honeycomb 3.01 and I just updated my flash player to 10.3
I checked the version through the stock browser at

The description is the same as it was for 10.2, do not expect drastic changes between them.

Lol...actually I hand typed that entire post as I was reading it off of my Xoom and forgot to type that in.
http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/12/flash-player-10-3-hits-android-with-optimizations-bug-fixes-apl/
Also that was the description in the market when I was downloading it to my Xoom. They must not have updated the text in there when I copied it.
*oh and edited to make you happy
i've tried it with megavideo and i've got a lot of problem ... videos didn't start and grey screen , browser that close itself with no reason ...
I came back immediatly to 10.2.
p.s. 3.1 installed
It turns out that the recently circulating hulu-capable hacked version can and does play back at full 30fps in 720p on the Transformer. Success!
This lead me to question why it would work though. I downloaded this hacked version (Google search it, I won't link it here) and also downloaded the original 10.3.185.22 version it is based on (it's about 2 months old). Testing the hacked version and I do indeed get hardware accelerated 720p. I disassembled them to figure out what was changed between the hacked and the official version and the only change is one line in the Flash Player library that reports to the browser what version of flash is running (Sort of like a UA string hack for Flash). This isn't enough to disable hardware acceleration though, and guess what: strangely enough, I also get hardware acceleration on the non-hacked version as well. Crazy that!
So, the tl;dnr version: For some reason, the latest Flash Player does not accelerate 720p video. I still don't know why. An older version (10.3.185.22) DOES accelerate Flash and can be used to fix this nagging problem. Download it here:
http://www.filesonic.com/file/1037676654
OR HERE:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10724980/Flash.Player.10.3.185.22.Android.apk
To install:
First remove any installed version of flash (go to market -> my apps -> Flash Player -> uninstall)
Copy the downloaded .APK to your device and run. No root required, but you will need to turn on non-market app installs.
Before testing, reboot into recovery and wipe cache. (The whole point is to wipe the browser cache - People report that this helps. If you like, you can just go to settings -> applications -> manage applications -> All -> Browser -> Wipe Cache)
Test playback on 720p stream or use http://www.youtube.com/my_speed and look at what the 'video fps' tells you
EDIT: You may have to run this in the STOCK BROWSER. Opera calls the Froyo version of the library which does not allow for hardware accelerated playback.
Some other notes:
The youtube test video still reports software decoding - this is normal, it's looking for the PC HW accel module, which Android does not have.
Some people are still have trouble making this work. I'll admit, it's sort of like voodoo - I've torn through the files in the .APK and the only file that is changed in the old version is a compiled library that I can't (legally) decode. Without source code, I still can't tell you why it works for some but not for others.
Apparently some people never had problems in the first place. Congratulations - we don't need to hear about it here. Unless you know why it works for you and not for others, don't add to the length of this thread.
It's not the latest version, but nothing significant has been added since this one, and at least it works right!

This version is the modified 10.3.185.22 version that is NO DIFFERENT than the official .22 version except for the modification one line that tells the browser it is a Windows based version of flash instead of Android.
If you install this version of Flash, hardware acceleration works but you cannot update via the Market (even though it tell you that you have an update) because it will fail every time.
The official version I linked will not play Hulu but does update via the market and at least for now, seems to retain hardware acceleration.

Strange.
Gary, can you ADB to your device?
If so, can you
Code:
adb uninstall com.adobe.flashplayer
And then try installing this. Note that it does take a few seconds for the video framerates to stabilize due to some inherent WiFi flakiness in the ASUS drivers.

I don't have access to adb atm, but I figured uninstalling Flash through the GUI rather than adb would have the same effect (and I did uninstall Flash before installing that version). I also tried restarting the browser, cycling opengl on/off, and rebooting the entire device.
After the intro, it still falls to 3-5 FPS on youtube.com/my_speed on 720p.
just uninstall the hacked version then install market version and the ability to play 720p at 30 fps seems to persist.

To be honest, it really makes little sense why it works. The old version works and the new version works when updated via the market (though it shouldn't because it overwrites everything) so honestly, I can't really troubleshoot to any degree.
My advice would be to just nuke anything in the /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer location, then install my linked version. Install that, update via the market (You might have to reboot or use Titanium Backup to get it to attach to the market) and see if it works. There is no good reason why it didn't work in the first place, and there is even less why it works now. It's like a ghost in the machine.

It's not a limitation of the Tegra as much as it is a limitation of the screen size. With a larger screen you have more pixels to push and that strains the hardware when it's not designed for it. Unfortunately, the Tegra GPU wasn't ever really designed for tablet resolutions - but it works and they use it - it's just not going to match the only 480x800 display (in the SGS2) in terms of fluidness.

I have a similar issue. I uninstalled via settings/applications and then used terminal to verify that /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer did not exist.
I get about 6 fps. I even tethered to my phone to get a faster download because my DSL speed was too slow to keep up.
I have stock 3.1 rooted.
Yeah, it's becoming clear to me that this is not an exact science. There isn't actually any reason why it shouldn't hardware accelerate on the market version when it does on the hacked (or just plain old) version.
Note that the youtube.com/my_speed video does report two frame rates, one titled "stage fps" and one "video fps" - it's that second one that is reporting the true decode speed. Also, if you're seeing spinning dots in the middle, that's your internet too slow to keep up, not your device.
If you're having no luck with the official .22 point release I linked, try using the hacked version linked in the second post and see if that changes anything.

okay installed this flash (hulu verison) and now opera 11 shows that flash is not install...anyone else having this issue?
I tried the linked version as well- not sure what is different but it does have a different checksum.
Perhaps I have to actually watch a hulu video first?
--- I poked around at some of the methods and the ones that flash via clockwork mod also install some libs- perhaps that this the other piece of the puzzle? It's bedtime here, so 30 fps will have to wait until later...
After uninstalling the newest version and installing the .22 modified one I am getting 30fps and little dropped frames in the speed test on the stock browser. Unfortunately Opera is still showing around 10fps.

I've explained this in detail in the OP but basically the .apk just installs the libraries to it's personal /data/data/ directory and the browser is able to dynamically load them from there. There is no need to install additional libraries because all four of the shared libraries flash requires are installed by installing the .apk.

Yes, unfortunately, Opera loads the libstagefright_froyo.so instead of the libstagefright_honeycomb.so which is the required library for hardware accelerated playback. I'll mention this in the OP.

God no, they're all worses than stock browser in my opinion. At least unil OnLive releases theirs!

This is my second Iconia, my first one I rooted the day I got it and 12 days later, my Iconia wouldnt stay connect to the internet. But anyways, I have tried Dolphin for Pad, Stock Browser, and even firefox for my Iconia. Everytime I browse a forum, or watch a simple video file on any of these browsers, it will force close. I have searched the forums to see if its a known problem or not. I typically will have no more than 2 tabs per browser open at a time. My question is, does anyone else have this problem, is there anything I can do to correct this?
The other issue I am having is, after switching over to a new tab the page will refresh itself losing its place/download progress of a video etc. Is there any way to correct this so it doesnt do that?
My Iconia is currently stock on 3.1 ( just in case I want to roll back to root access)
And this is happening with multiple browsers? If so, the refresh problem is also happening? That is extremely bizarre, and I unfortunately do not have much to offer than to let you know that this does not happen to me at all.
I can only confirm that this does not happen to me also, but I have applied all the latest updates, so maybe one of the updates has addressed this issue. Have you checking the system log (logcat or android system info app) to see what if any error is being thrown?
First of all, you need to update, 3.1 is so old school. Secondly, you can easily root 3.2 these days. Third, have you tried Opera, never had a problem with it. The other 2 you mentioned dolphin pad and firefox are beta releases.
Wow, that is kinda bizarre. I'm on rooted stock 3.2.1 and use Dolphin browser for tablets and don't have any of these problems. If you are interested in rooting and flashing a different ROM, I'd say go ahead and do it, and see if that fixes the issue. I generally read most of the posts on here, and have never seen anyone with a problem like yours. The closest thing I've had happen is the very occasional FC with Dolphin if I have tons of tabs open and try to DL a file or something. Sorry thats not much help, but maybe a new ROM might fix whatever is messed up for you.
Have you updated your Adobe Flash player in the marketplace? I had the same problem as yours before. Then I checked the market and there was an "update" button for adobe flash. So I updated, and the browser didn't for close after that.
I've got the same problem when a few apps are running in the background and when I try to open web pages that are a bit heavy (containing movies or large photographs, for instance).
I had the same problem with the stock browser and the Dolphin browser...
My guess is that the amount of RAM memory is not high enough... Maybe I'm wrong but it sounds to me simply logical.
No troubles for me either..
im wondering if you two are on the same sites d/loading playing the same videos..
i have issues with some site on my iconia netflix search function.. and similar boxes on other sites.. But some sites its fine..
i suggest do as told above.. get on a version of 3.21 try the honeylicious or other great near stock roms.. then if your trouble continue check with other web sites that you normally dont go to ..
Good Luck..
Thank's Renee
I will follow your advice and avoid webpages that include photos or videos.

Yep, I agree.
You would be surprised the number of apps attempting to contact the Internet in the background. You could install 'Advanced Task Killer' (free version from the Android Market) and check if the RAM is running low prior to streaming a video.

The first thing I did was root the device then I started trying the different roms available here and my favorite has been Katkiss 6.0.3 because it has been very stable (without google). I mainly use it for light web browsing, youtube videos (through newpipe) my favorite, emulators!
I was just wondering does anyone still use the tablet? If so, what for?

Yeah, I recently dug it out the draw when I decided to look at kindles for reading. Then realised I had a perfectly good tabled with an extra power pack in the form of keyboard dock. So, I am as we speak flashing KatKiss 6.0.0.34 onto it. But discovered not to install gapps, because play store seems to force the tablet into a boot loop. So its just a case of downloading aps via browser or another app altogether. The only annoyance is the keyboard layout isn't the same. The @ is where the " should be & same for #. But I think that's a settings issue maybe!
OK, just to fill anyone in in case they want to know. I have tried Katkiss 4.4.4 & gapps caused problems + it was slow & some apps I wanted wouldn't work correctly due to the age of the android version.
Katkiss 6.01 is brilliant if you don't install gapps, with it, its a cluster****.
I've just installed KatKiss 5.1.1 with gapps & it appears to be stable. A tad slow at times but once you've installed all the apps you need, the speed improves.
However, I discovered if you flash 5.1.1 with gapps at the same time, it just wont work. But if you flash 5.1.1 with the Super User file first, reboot into the OS. Then shut down & load back into twrp & flash only gapps, it loads & optimises the apps as well. It feels much quicker than gapps in 6.01 & 4.4.4. Its been running for about an hour & no random reboots yet.
I do stress, before you flash, do an advance wipe of all the top 5 directories, then a format. Reboot into twrp & then install, if you don't, it causes issue's.
Its not amazing, but it allows me to use facebook, youtube & brows the news when I'm in Costa enjoying a hot drink, which beats my S10E all day long.
No gapps is definitely the way to go. I have been using it for 2 months and I haven't gotten a bootloop. I have noticed that the wifi can act a little funny at times though. Have you guys experienced this?

Looking to give away TF101 dock
Hello,
I really benefited from this forum and was able to root my device after I bought it lightly used in 2011 or 2012 and used it until 2017 or so. As far as I can tell, my TF101 dock still charges and holds a charge. Since the tablet itself doesn't start, I cannot test any more whether the dock is working. I do not have the original packaging.
I noticed that the TF101 tablet screen was starting to go out and that I had to be very careful about setting the right level of illumination of the screen lest it go to black suddenly and I would have to reboot it to see the screen again. The tablet suddenly died and I put it away to try to fix on a rainy day. That day didn't happen, but I'd gladly donate the tablet as well for parts.
So I am looking to mail the dock, an off-brand charger that plugs directly into an outlet, and, if someone would like it, the dead tablet which may have some useful parts.
No one is selling the device on Swappa as far as I know.
If you are interested, send me a message or direct me to the right forum in which I can "give back" to the XDA community by donating this appropriately. I can e-waste the tablet itself in my area if its parts would not be useful to anyone on this forum.
All the best,
Ireadthemanual

Its not amazing, but it allows me to use facebook, youtube & brows the news when I'm in Costa enjoying a hot drink, which beats my S10E all day long.

I have tried and tried to flash that ROM onto this tablet, and no luck at all.
The fact is, I can't install a custom recovery, because every time I try to download the TWRP recovery it downloads twrp.blob, instead of twrp.img, can you give me any suggestions?
How did you do it?
Hey guys, I was able to use Katkiss Rom 6.0.34 with Play Store on 19-05-2020, the guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82614765&postcount=1468

Use this 1 click tool, run the .bat file and follow the instructions. Do this on the stock firmware and you will get TWRP as well as SuperUser root. After that you can flash all you want.

awesome ! I'll try it again and report on the thread !
just resurrected mine and put the revolution ics image on when it was running katkiss and having issue trying to find apps that will work with it. playstore is pretty much dead as not much on there that works. The plan was to run it as a CCTV monitor
