When I got my G Tab from Woot, it came with Flash and several other applications already installed. When I got stuck in a boot loop and had to reset back to factory default, Flash was no longer installed. I went to the market and installed it again rebooted the tablet, and still wasn't able to access a flash based website I was able to view before. I have tried both flash 10.1 and 10.2 from the market. Is there something else I should be doing to get this app to work? Anyone else have this problem? The website I am trying to access is starfall.com (there are various flash activities that I would like to be able to do with my students).
Thanks for your help!
Are you receiving any error messages?
I recently went to the website you posted in your thread and I was able to use the website with the "web (default)" browser but not with "Dolphin Browser HD." The web went straight to the flash items and it work great but within the "Dolphin Browser HD," the website required me to update it and install a plug-in? The only difference between our G Tablet is my has TNT Lite 4.4 and yours is back to stock. Which stock are you in, 3389 or 3588?
I am in 3588 ( I was able to update before the OTA went down). No, I don't get an error message, it just shoots me to a webpage that states that the website requires a plugin that isn't compatible with my device.
Something else I noticed... although the flash application is showing up when I go into the system, and look for installed applications, it doesn't show up as an icon when I pull up the screen that shows all the applications.
I know it was working when I first got my tablet, and even after I did the OTA update.
Another odd thing (not sure if it is related) You Tube works as long as I am not logged into the website under my You Tube account, but it stops working if I log in. It will work again, if I log out.
See if common flash sites like CNN or ESPN3 work. If flash works on these sites, then the particular site you are trying to use is looking for a specific flash plug-in, such as the one used by IE and desktops. Sites such as Hulu and Fancast are looking for the Adobe Flash desktop plug-in.
There is a hack that will fake these sites in thinking you have the desktop version. Information about the hack can be found in this thread:

Have you tried switching the browsing mode or view to 'Desktop'?
As for Flash not showing up in your list of apps, it only runs, say, behind the scenes. Yo won't be able to really open it up like other apps. So it's normal that you can't find it.
Oh, and if you use Dolphin or some other browsers, they sometimes have flash specific options to use flash all the time, some times, or never. So it could also be your browser not allowing the flash to play
That was the problem.. I had my browser set to view in tablet form. It works just fine in desktop view. Thanks so much!
I have noticed that flash 10.2 on my Gtab with vegan Rom works at some websites and not others. With the stock rom, I was able to find the desk/tablet mode selection in the menus and make 10.2 work consistantly.
Where do I find this setting in the vegan rom?

Hi,
I'm in the process of rooting the Nook Tablet, and I have to use the web browser to access an Extranet for work purposes. I find the stock browser from the NT wouldn't let me access the site (log in button shows as jpeg, non-clickable), and I know the stock from Honeycomb works just fine.
If someone would so kindly provide me an apk of a stock Android browser, can I just plug that into the Nook Tablet and expect it to work?
PS: I've tried Dolphin from the android market, and it doesn't work. It keeps showing "simple accelerator" errors...
Thanks for all the help!
hi guys, i have installed [ROM][XXALF6][22Jun]Online●●●►Omega v6.0 on my s3, i installed the remove bloat ware option, all installed fine. anyhow... So i use a site to download apks, well i did when i was running stock rom, the problem i am getting now is that the website loads up fine, i select the app i want, info loads up on a new screen showing the info about the app, then at the bottom you click the download button and normally it goes to another site where you wait a few seconds and then you can download it... but all i get now is the "web page not available" screen when i know the page is working fine because i can access it on my pc and works phone...any ideas what could be causing it? i have tried installing other browsers (chrome and mozilla) but no joy

I'm running ARHD 21.0 on my One and this problem has been happening for quite a few versions but isn't that big of a deal that I needed it solved right away, now it's just annoying.
I cannot download any files from either chrome or the stock browser. From chrome the download won't even start, if I use the stock browser it will start but as soon as it starts up it will say "Download Unsuccessful" and that's it. This happens for pictures, videos, Rom files (which i used to download straight to the phone to avoid using my laptop to transferring the file). Now if i go onto the facebook app i can save those pictures.
I've wiped the cache and data from both browsers and the downloads app but those didn't solve anything. I have done multiple wipes while upgrading ROMs.
Anyone else have this problem, and possibly know a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Guys,
please bear with me as I know this must be the most asked question and I have found n number of solutions on the web for this. However, I am at my wits end as I have tried every solution in the book and every browser recommended with absolutely no results.
My question is not how to install Flash or how to get it to work, but to find out what I am doing wrong.
I have this flash presentation of interior spaces on the site (url below) which I can see on my laptop/desktop but just unable to view on any browser on my Android 4.2.1.
(unable to post the link as I am a new member)
For a complete story, I use Micromax Canvas 4 (India Product) running on Android 4.2.1. I have downloaded Flash Player 11.1.115.69 and installed on my phone. I have Dolphin browser ver 10.2.5 with the setup of "Flash Player" - "Always on" in the settings. I also have Firefox with settings - Plugins Enabled.
However, I am just unable to view the above content over the phone and am just frustrated with this right now. I have a customer presentation coming up for this and I do not know how to show the content over the smartphone.
Any suggestions - welcome.
Regards
GP

Well, what happens when you TRY to start the presentation? Any error Messages?
Did you try in other browsers, go to drawer and run Flash Player settings.

I have a rooted Galaxy S2 GTi9100. I was using the skype since a long time even after rooting. But somewhere in between my skype app stopped working. whenever i tried to login it failed saying Incorrect login details. But I can login using the Phone browser, Windows PC app and browser using same login details.
These are the actions I have performed to get my skype working but still no success.
1. Reset the phone.
2. Formatted Internal SD card from phone and Via PC several times.
3. Uninstalled and Installed again and again.
4. Installed older versions of the app.
5. Changed several custom ROMS.
Also NOTE: I can login on other android phones, and neither others can login in my phone
With so many tech geeks here is there anyone who has any Idea why this is happening ?
Thanks and awaiting for your replies to a mystery that has puzzeld me for long time

Havent tried going back to stock. Anyways it was working with different Custom Rom's for about 1 year or so...Yeah installed from google playstore
You can wait for a update to come to skype or try going back to stock, i don't have any idea what else could it be, you can also write a complaint to skype but i guess they won't care since you are using custom firmware.
