Best browser for flash player? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I was able to view flash content with the stock browser on my note 2 but I am not able to on my s4. Does anyone know how to fix this or what browser would you recommend that supports flash player? Thanks in advance.

I am also having the same problem even though I have the same flash installed that worked on my S3..

Firefox beta or boat browser.

bump. .. to see if anyone has gotten flash to work with the stock browser. Even though it is a bit gimmicky, I would like to take advantage of the quick scroll feature.

Is the stock browser still the android "browser" or is it Chrome now?

If it is chrome that explains why it doesnt work. I am pretty sure that flash doesnt work with chrome.

Yeah, that's why I was asking. Don't have the phone yet myself. Tomorrow!

It is stock Android. That is the only one compatible with the smart scroll at the moment.

Would it be possible to port the Galaxy S3's browser to work with the Galaxy S4? As I understand it, the Galaxy S3 browser supports flash

Are you stock? Any custom rom has the stock browser you might be able to just move to system/app and set permissions <-- needs root however

I didn't do anything but in dolphin I don't have any problems. But with Chrome, even though I have Flash player installed, most of the times it doesn't work.

Chrome browser doesnt support flash. Stock does as does firefox. You still need the apk for flash installed.

Stock browser is the best browser fullstop.
Full screen
Quick controls
Bookmark sync
Tabs
Mobile/desktop view
Reflow
Flash
Speedy
Plus lots more
I know other browsers have a lot of these features, but why use a different one? I've tried them all, genuinely, and the stock browser is superior.
One thing I miss is computer to mobilr sync.
I have never searched for it though.

cant find flash player settings in my n7100 stock browser.. please help.. by the way im using tigrarom v4...

anyone try using s3's browser for flash support?

just wondering if anyone has tried using the s3's browser for its flash support?
feature wise I don't think the s4 browser brings anything new to the table, does it? I figured I'd ask before trying out it myself.

both of those are fun to play with, but after the first few days of fun I doubt I'll use them since they really just slow you down lol.. there's no encoding or rendering differences? so they should both load pages, java, html5, etc the exact same?

the only good thing about the stock browser is that it works with all the gimmicky features that come with the phone.
try a different, better browser.

What browser

What browser are you guys using? Stock, Chrome, Dolphin and Opera are just a few available.
I have always been a fan of Opera, but it's been buggy lately.
Jusy started playing with Chrome and like it a lot.
Just stock one

Ya, that's kind of annoying.
I'm using Next Browser, very fast and useful
I'm using the stock Google browser... until now it's the best one I've tried. Great handling flash with imbued subtitles for online streaming and everything works fine. My second choice would be Firefox.
