[Think Tank] Flash 10.1 on Nexus One - Nexus One Android Development

So flash was already demo'd on the nexus one which means there has to be a way of installing it. Now you can download the Flash 10.1 for Linux on their site. and it has included 2 files. 1 is "flashplayer-install" and the other is "libflashplayer.so".
Can we push libflashplayer.so onto the phone and it'll pickup the library or is it more complicated than this... What can we do to make this work?

---

Its much more complicated than that, there are optimizations that they've done to even make it fast enough to use on a phone, plus the plug-in has to be compiled for the architecture on the phone (ARM) I do wish we could get a leak of the alpha plug-in though.

---

Ya, I think the only way this is happening is if someone leaks the version we've all been seeing. There's gotta be a leaky faucet somewhere.

---

We might not need to wait, the Desire (Nexus One minus the Google) has 10.1 Flash baked in...
Beyond me but it could be possible to, along with the Sense UI and whatever else is new and applicable, to port over Flash 10.1 if Google doesn't release it before then.

---

According to engadgdet the htc desire they demo'd had flash 10.1 so maybe when that rom leaks.

---

just a quick question : say the Flash 10.1 is released officially , in what form will it come?
an over the air update from google for OS? or just android Market app to be installed?
any ideas?
will it affect browser in any way?

---

OTA

something like this will have to be an os update because the browser will need to be able to access this lib/plugin along with other apps IMO unless someone can further my knowledge and tell me otherwise

---

I always thought flash would come as an upddate (perhaps 2.2 Froyo?)

---

as i've read, flash is already available for developers.
asking google....

---

Maybe it will be a OTA or it will come along with 2.2 as kyle said. Then again we will have it quicker once someone has a Desire rom leak.

---

I have some files I am going to post, which may help.

That would be great

Flash has been on Sense UI as early as the HTC Magic & Hero and when my youtube app stopped playing videos I resorted to playing them in the browser with flash, how come HTC seem to have no problem releasing it? Flash 10.1 must be a lot faster

HTC leans its devices more to the media oriented.

There's a little bit of info from Adobe in this thread:

That was Flash Lite. The upcoming Flash 10.1 is the full version.

Hope you can post them soon

can someone grab FLASH from the desire rom and figure out how to make it work on CM5.0.2?

I posted screenshots of flash (Hulu focused) in the apps section. Wasn't sure where to put it... If this place is more relevant then we can just delete my other post (if there are any mods reading =))
Here is the recap:
So I can get Hulu web page to start, and it says "loading" the video but it gets an error message.

Is anyone more informed of why? I know flash != shockwave, not sure if that is the issue. Or is the browser telling Hulu what kind of browser it is. I know that is spoofable. The last thing I can think of some sort of cache issue with the browser? In the settings the max I can set it is 6mb so maybe Hulu won't stream it. If we can get Hulu working on our N1's it would be a huge win. =)
