I was reading that downloading the android flash app onto the computer, moving it to the SD card and installing the file from there should work with Android 2.2. You have to do it this way because when downloading it on the phone from the market place says it is incompatible with the phone (even though it's running 2.2).
Anyways, I followed this advice, and after installation my browser would automatically quit when the progress bar is at 100% on my homepage. I had to uninstall flash to get my browser working again. Has anyone had any success with the flash app?
Below is the link to the article I sited at the beginning of the post:

You mean Adobe Flash? You cannot use it on this phone (until/unless someone rewrites it for the CPU).

QFT.
Adobe Flash can't run on v6 processors, at least for now.

Ok! I installed ClockworkMod_Gtab_v08 and then flashed with gtab_tnt_lite_v4.40. Than I did the installed and did the Titanium Backup. I used the Gtab for about a week. All the while logging onto Market and downloading and installing various aps.
Two questions. 1. I downloaded and install Adobe Flashplayer 10 which downloaded and Gtab said successfully installed. But I can't find it in the aps section and it won't open (open is grayed out) in the market (where it has an "open and uninstall" button. Anyone know why it won't open?
2. After this flash, how do I find the next upgraded update for the Tnt or should I go the another rom like Harmony? And how do I do the flash? Just like the original flash using ClockWkMod? And will I loose all my installed (some bought) aps?
Thank you
Flash player isn't going to show in the app drawer. It isn't something you run, only utilized by the browser. Try loading a site with flash animations/games/video/etc. and seeing if it works. Not sure on the market side of your problem. It has never showed in my market no matter how many times I've done the simple fix. I got 10.2.156.12.apk from the viewsonic page (gtablet page, click on Favorites, not the link on the main page for flash) under Multimedia. Works fine for me.
I'm not sure about #2. Pretty new to this. If you mean the official Tnt, I think you'd need to revert to stock and update. I think Titanium can be used to backup, but again, I'm pretty new and just going by what I remember reading. Search around and I'm sure you'll find all your answer.

2) Bookmark the original thread and check back. The devs always update the existing thread with new releases. If you decide to change to another ROM please make sure to read that developers instructions to make sure there aren't any special procedures needed.
I have Vegan-tab gingerbread 7.0RC1 pershoot bl1.2.
Flash no longer shows up on my installed apps. When i search for it, It says it is not compatible for my device, google maps does the same thing too. Does anyone else have this problem too. I just noticed it last week.

Yeah, that was the only problem I had with that ROM. It seemed to always happen for me when the tablet would hard freeze and I had to reboot. Once it boots back up, anytime I access the Market, everything was not compatible with GTab.
I never found a solution other than returning to HC. It was a good ROM and that was the only prob I had with it.
Does [BL1.2]VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition v7.1.0 solve this issue?
Yes, it is much better running Vending 3.1.3.
If you have superuser rights, use AntTek App Manager to backup flash, than delete it from system (even sys application version), the Hulufied version from ASOP Ginger posts. You might need to install, update from market, remove, and install Hulufied version to stick.
Just download it on the PC..then hook up your GTab to the PC...drag the Flash 10.3 (Yes that one will work) into the storage on the device. Then download it from there.
All the apps (And there was ALOT) that shows up Non Compatible with your device in the Market...will actually work if you do it that way.
Thank you for all the responses. I went for the upgrade option to Vegantab 7.1. I am very pleased.
I've been looking around for a few days now and can't seem to find it. Does anyone know how to get hulu to work on the Evo View Tablet? I've got it rooted of course and I tried to use the kindle version I can get it to install and load but it keeps giving me an error when I try to watch videos. Any help with this would be great.
Good luck man, I've been asking this question for a few weeks now, with no solid replies
I dont get it since Flyer owners have it available in the Market
Bah. What's the difference between the flyer and the view? Why would they release it for one and not the other? Lol, I bet someone here can get it to work on the view.

Here is what you need to do to get it working:
1) Get root !

2) After you have root access you can follow the guide to get HULU working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153196
In a nutshell:
a) make sure that you have root, busybox installed and working
b) download and install flash player 11.0.1.152
c) flash hulu-hack zip file from CWM
d) use desktop mode in the browser to watch HULU. I use Dolphin HD with mobile/desktop switcher plug-in.
I also had to install "Script Manager" from the market, navigate to /system/etc/init.d, select S98fixflash and check the "run on boot"

It works great on mine. I had it running fine on Gingerbread and right now on Honeycomb.
Do you get the message that device is unsupported? That would mean that you're not using the hacked version of flash for one reason or another. Once you get Hacked flash zip installed through CWM, try manually copying /data/flash/libflashplayer.so into /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/ using RootExplorer. Overwrite the old file. After that try running Hulu. If it works, but you're loosing Hulu after reboot, make sure that script is running on restart using Script Manager.
Yeah, something's not quite right I will double check tomorrow. Another note, are you running stock root? I wanted to get honeycomb on my tab but the ROM I'm running has been so stable and great.
Hulu on View
On the View, try Flash Video Browser. You can get it from either Android or Amazon markets for $.99. You must have Flash 11 installed.
Edit : No root required.

I have tried multiple apps to download from "http://d-h.st/" but I can not. I have always downloaded the roms/mods directly onto my phone and installed but for reason "http://d-h.st/" does not download onto my phone. I have tried stock Browser, Dolphin Browser HD, and Easy Downloader. I am running the UnNamed Rom 2.2.1 with the newest Siyah Kernel and ICS theme.
Thanks for letting me host on your server.

Get "Download All Files" from the market
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Works fine for me. Therefore: it is not a problem for anyone in the world
But yeah, Download All Files is a must regardless of whether this type of link requires it or not.
Thanks for the info.
I noted a few reports of it not working including 403 errors but that can happen with any provider.

1) Post this in whatever thread you're complaining about the file sourcing for.
2) You shouldn't be downloading firmwares straight to your phone. It's the most likely way for things to get corrupted. Plus you should always be near a PC when flashing something new in case it breaks. Don't ask devs to change hosting for your convenience - with the Megaupload fallout it's already a major ****ing pain to find a reliable hosting provider, so when we find something that works we stick with it until it breaks.
oh god, post like these man, they just make me want [i cant say because if i do im pretty sure i will get banned and yeah...] not only are you getting this for free, you also want dedicated servers.

Are you on stock ROM, rooted stock, cm7 or cm10? If on cm10 what gapps version did you install?

Thank you, Asawi. I did look on Google, I really did, but I think I was a little too specific in looking for the error that I received, rather than looking up keyboard problems.
I tried the steps in the link that you sent, but they dont seem to work. I am trying to install a keyboard called Swype, and I downloaded an APK that I am told is a beta.....I suppose that doesnt matter?
When it says alternate launcher, would Go Launcher be a good one to choose?
I rebooted several times, but the new keyboard does not show up when I run the Accessibility shortcut that I created.
Thank you so much for your help
I haven't tried Swype myself but it is discussed in the topic I linked to. Have you read the whole thing, and it's still not working?
I think I may have lied when I said I used that guide on my CM10 install. I'm not sure it was needed there. I did use it on rooted stock though. What are you running?

I have now installed Skype Beta 1.3 on my Tablet running CM10 without any problem. No special procedure needed in CM10, just install as any other app and activate through the regular settings, language and input.
Rooted stock needs a little bit more fiddling though.

I am pretty sure that I am running CM7....this is the link that I used to root my tablet:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439630
Perhaps I should upgrade to CM10? Do you have a good link for doing that?
If you have followed that you're running rooted stock Not CM7.
You can test run CM10 by running it from sd. Very easy. All you need is here: http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/
Thank you so much for your help, Asawi I followed the directions that you sent me, and after having a bit of difficulty with part of them (I had trouble understanding why I had to use drag and drop to modify the zip files, but I just followed the directions and all worked correctly) it worked like a charm.
I guess I WAS a little stupid thinking that I was running CM7 because one of the main topics with that OS that I was running was to block the OTA updates (which, of course, means that they are updating the Nook OS, not an Android OS)
This Jellybean OS looks REALLY nice and I am having a lot of fun working with it.....I also like the fact that it is all installed to my SD card so I still have access to the stock (unrooted!) Nook OS and reader as well......I just use the Nook for reading books, and boot to Android if I want to do anything else.
One thing that I would like to be able to do is access a couple of apps that I bought from B&N when running Android. Is that possible? If not, no biggie.
Again, thanks for your help!
Jim :good:
Isn't that sd card awsome?! :good:
I don't think you can access the BN apps while in Android mode, But most of the freebies I checked out there were freebies in Play Store as well, so I got them there instead,
And half the time I just follow the instructions without having a clue whyI do what I do except "it works".
