Forgive the dumb question, but now that I've downloaded the Flash apk for my stock nexus 7, how do I get dolphin to recognize it? When I try to play flash video it says that I need to install flash, or that my device is not compatible....is there a way to make this work
Nexus 7....Verizon sg3..stock as hell.
latest version of Dolphin browser does not support flash.
I would suggest you use Firefox Beta....works like a champ.
Boat browser is also good but dolphin will not allow you to use flash.

Downloaded Firefox beta, seems smooth, but there is no sound on flash video. What the bleep am I doing wrong?

+1 for boat, have been using it since I got my Nexus a few months ago because of the flash support and it's been rock solid!
I still think the AOSP stock browser is best for flash support

Stock Browser seems to work best with flash for me (using Paranoid ROM)

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.
i thought my browsers dialed the flash, but it seems the device is incompatible with adobe flash player. Why would Google follow the lead of Apple and do this?

Its not Google fault as such, Adobe abandoned mobile flash so Google couldn't add it since they said they wasn't going to support it past 4.0. You are able to sideload it and it does work pretty well with firefox beta. You should be able to find the flash file on this forum there are lots of posts on the subject.
To get file see here, its just been posted this morning

Just got nexus 7, chrome browser lags??
Anyone know why this is?
Its not smooth at all, I am on the latest firmware and completely stock.
Others notice this?
Yes it isn't smooth, If you want smoothness then try Firefox. Its just like on IOs.
Yeah it is choppy . Better try alternatives btw i don't think the sluggishness has anything to do with n7 it could be due lack of optimization of chrome .

So.. Does Firefox have integrated flash or did I get something wrong?
Sorry for the off topic ^^'

Firefox is the only browser I've gotten flash to work with, but you still need to install the flash 11.1 apk separately.
On topic chrome browser is smooth for me.

Chrome is also fine for me. Plus I can't live without the browser sync.

I use Firefox Beta and it works just fine n.n I just can't live without the addons!
What's strange is that for me Chrome is the only browser that scrolls smoothly, Firefox and opera both lag on my 7 where on my nexus 4 they are both smooth... Go figure.
I use Firefox beta it seems to show Web sites the best out of all the browsers, but it is not the fastest loading

I m personally fine with using Chrome on my nexus 7..
Tried dolphin with jet pack, it crashes every single time.
Tried Firefox beta, it's super slow at loading pages so slow that I can't tell if it's loading or if it's hanged.
I'm on completely stock 4.2 without any mods at all. Anyone else with the same experience?

Are there any apps that will give flash support on jelly bean or are we just screwed?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Flash works perfectly for me. I'm rooted and replaced the default browser (Chrome) by renaming the BrowserProviderProxy.apk and BrowserProviderProxy.odex and copying in the Browser.apk from the AOSP Nexus browser. Side-loaded flash for mobile from the Adobe site. Search a little and you'll find lots more info about this. Other users claim Flash support on other browsers, but I haven't used them.
People like to use Firefox and install the flash apk. I have honestly never needed to use flash player though.

I sideloaded the flash player that I backed up from another device and use it with Firefox Beta (no root required).

I've attached the latest flash player. It worked fro me with Firefox. Mine is rooted. But if you are not you can give it a shot. Let me know if it works.

Works great on boat and maxthon browsers.

Dolphin works. Even newest versions. You need to delete or change some tunny browser file. I forget exactly, just search dolphin and flash. And no....you don't have to use version 8.5.xxx. that will crash if you full screen a video.

I just tried UC browser with flash and it worked. So far it's the only one that hasn't crashed when playing flash videos. Firefox crashes occasionally, boat crashes EVERY time I try to play a flash video.

Many thanks. always want to use newest versions of Dolphin with flash support and now my dream just came true.
After read your comment and google that finally I has found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933179 thread and it work!!
Ok, but I'm not rooted (yet)
Just got my nexus 7 recently, maybe in the future I'll root it.
I would recommend puffin browser or boat browser, both support flash without any extra app. Just download one and 'ur ready to go!

I have read all the posts on how to get flash to work. I do not like Dolphin browser much, so was wondering why it seems dolphin is the only way to get flash working (with the jet pack and the modded flash apk)?? What are the odds other browsers will get it working or are we 'stuck' with Dolphin if we want to use flash? I use flash only to watch live sports and some tv shows....
Thanks for any input you may have,
so only dolphin I guess?
