Okay, since we all know that FP doesn't support ARM v6, so that why we can't have flash on our phone.
But!
I was browsing the Android Apps and Games forum when I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155538
The poster claims that this is Flash 10.1 that works on ARM v6.
After checking the site he posted I found this
Supported devices:
...
HTC Wildfire
HTC Wildfire S

Dolphin HD, since he said in the topic that's the one that works the best with Flash.

Miniclip doesn't work on miren either... But shouldn't apps that require flash work now?
Well, I got the little flash symbol on DHD but when I clicked on it and waited a bit the browser FCed.
I have yet to test Flash on the Miren (Miren ftw!)

Yeah my mine crashes too when trying to use flash stuff... But have you tried any apps?
Edit: Nvm
Hm..actualy..no!
Lemme try the Kongregate app.
I think that flash wont appear because it isn't ARMv6 modified.
And if you try to install it it'll give an error (I tried that before).
Yeah I don't think this works.. Hopefully someone can make it work though..
It works
I can play miniclip games[but they are very laggy]
Using dolphin hd and jokerdorid 4.2
On adobe test page it says adobe flash 10.1.something
Well that might lead me to believe it doesn't work on CM7 (and CM7 based roms).
Must be HTC's Flash Lite at work.

Weird. It worked for me today on a site where you have this music player and stream it, but when I tried it again browser just crashed and I'm on cm7. Can anyone confirm that this has worked for them?
Using the native browser i cant seem to load any flash content.
Downloaded Dolphin browser HD and it works well, just need to click the green arrow to load the flash.
I've updated to Adobe Flash Player 10.3 from the Market, and also installed adobe air. Nothing works.
Using Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G on 3.1.
Check browser settings, set plugins on demand or on. It's off by default.

I'm such a noob. thanks for answer such a simple question so quickly!
I have Flash working on my Nexus 10 using the latest versions of the Dolphin browser and the Skyfire browser downloaded from the Play Store and I am able to watch video clips on the BBC Web site and the TVCatchup Web site without needing to root the Nexus 10 or use a seperate iPlayer application.
I have the Dolphin browser Agent set to "Desktop" and in the Web Content setting I have the Flash Player set to "Always on".
I have the Skyfire browser set to "Load Pages As:" Desktop and "Enable Plug-ins" Always On.
I attach a copy of the Flash apk that I use and which needs to be "side-loaded" to the "Download" folder in the "My Files" folder then install using a file manager such as Astro by clicking it.
I've not been able to get Flash working on the Chrome browser or the Opera Mobile browser this way and l could not play the BBC clips using the Boat browser but I could watch TVCatchup.
I hope this way of getting Flash on the Nexus 10 browsers works for you too and if so then please show your gratitude by using the thanks button.

Thanks for the info. I'm using dolphin also... Quick question, can you pleas elaborate on the step above? I've never rooted or used Astro before, so I'm a little green. I know this doesn't require root, but you see where I'm coming from... I think the side loading step is basically downloading the file to the N10, but the Astro part is not as clear. Also, if you go to ESPN.com using Dolphin, can you play those videos?

Flash is off by default on Dolphin 9.0.3 for android 4.1 or higher and is not selectable. How did you enable it in JB?

Download Astro from the Play Store and when you runi it then it will show you the folders on the Nexus 10 and you will find the Download folder iwhere the Flash player is saved in the My Files folder under Folders.
The video clips on ESPN.com do not play unfortunately, but I don't know why not

I am using Dolphin 9.03 and the Flash setting works for me. Perhaps you have to install the Flash Player before itt works.

Thanks. I was able to install Astro from Google Play. I followed your instructions and installed flash. My ESPN videos still won't play, but I have no idea why. For some reason, I thought it would if flash was installed...

Was able to get flash finally working on Boat browser, but I have the same issue with Dolphin unfortunately. It won't allow me to enable flash as it gives me the dialog box telling me of Android's discontinued support.

Quick question, if you go to ESPN, can you play videos using Boat? I installed boat, and I still can't play them...
Sent from my Nexus 10 baby!
The flash player loads, but it then tells me that the content is unavailable due o it not being authorized for playback on the device.
Do you think this might be possible with the regular Android browser that other devices have?
I used the same apk from another source with Maxthon browser, works perfect on all media I have tried.

Yes same here with Maxthon and the Stock Android Browser. With the exception (so far) of ESPN. I'm getting sound but no video with both browsers.
I've got flash working on Dolphin. The flash player setting is set to "on demand", and I can't change it. I get the "flash is disabled because its no longer supported." message, but the setting stays at "on demand".
"On demand" was the setting I used on my previous tablet, and when I switched to the N10, I backed up my old Dolphin settings with Titanium Backup and restored them on the N10, so that's probably how the setting got stuck that way.
So it looks like the answer for using flash on Dolphin is to use Titanium Backup and a backup file from a pre-Jellybean device. Of course you need to be rooted for that.
Just get the older version of Dolphin from here and everything will work lawlessly:

Tested on several websites and didn't have any problem, except ESPN, but over there it is a different issue.

OK so I got my flash working without root access ' what I did was side load flash ' then used boat browser and set the flash to always and user agent to desktop. But I will say it runs so bad guys , its very slow and I assume it has to do with the screen res and how much it has to download at the same time, using it also drained my battery heavily and made the back end really hot lol wait for a html5 to catch up lol that's what I say.
Price to pay for cutting edge

Works wit Firefox too
I just got this to work with Firefox. I had to remove and reinstall FF after side loading flash. Dolphin had to be done the same way, and in no way did any of this work for me until after I updated to 4.2.1. I updated dolphin to the latest version once I got it to work and the darn update turned flash off... So I got rid a dolphin and kept Firefox because ff is @ the latest version.

Hey guys,
I just wanted to share this with all of you bacause it is awesome
As everyone knows the official NBA Game Time app for android is a pain in the a** and it is not a great experience to watch games with this app So I just tried to flash the aosp android browser, install flash and watch the games within the browser itself. And guess what it works GREAT! No stuttering or lagging at all and these 3000 kbits look amazing on that screen (and my HDTV via HDMI)
Even the full screen controls are working!
So go ahead flash this aosp browser install flash and you're good to go!
Happy watching to everyone!
Nice! I hate game time app! Was going to purchase league pass to watch on app but cant purchase it for tablet so Im assuming you have league pass and are logging into it thru web?
How are you flashing aosp browser?
Yes I'm logging in via the web browser. You have to have a custom recovery installed (e.g. clockwork mod recovery) then you can copy the aosp browser zip file onto your SD card and choose install zip from SD card and you're done

Man i been trying to make it work, but all i get is sound and then it keeps loading and says cannot play the video to difficulties.
Also my League Pass app does not look at all like yours on that screenshot, dunno.
Dunno what else to do
Flash is working great under Firefox (last version or beta), it could be another solution?
FYI: I'm not using the game time app at all. I'm just using my browser. log in to your account click on a game wait for the page to load complete and then click on the game again. I don't know why but the game only shows up at the second time. then you can interact with the interface just like you're on your PC...e.g. toggle fullscreen, mute, fast forward, rewind and so on.

I get the same thing when I try (I'm in the US).
I would love to find a mod for the Game Time for Tablets app so I can run it on my Note II. I've tried the Paranoid Android ROM so I can run the app in tablet mode, but no luck. It still opens for a few seconds and then closes.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Yes i can confirm i installed flash 11.1 apk and its working perfectly.
flash works fine in the stock browser, you just need to side load a flash APK. Anything 11.1 or higher will work fine. Enjoy your porn :silly:.
It works well with boat browser and boat lets you set the user agent to desktop
Where did you find the Flash .apk?

So, even though it's JB the stock browser works with Flash? That's a big plus since I'm not yet ready to give up in-browser Flash videos. Now, it just needs root, SixAxis and Wireless Tether and I'll be content.

All Adobe said was that Flash for Android would be discontinued and wouldn't be officially supported by them after ICS. That doesn't mean it won't continue to work on some devices running 4.1 on up, just that there's no promise of working. I think Flash is still working with most Jelly Bean devices.

Same here. I doesn't work properly on some youtube videos. Some videos show scrambled lines but no pictures, some others just won't play. I installed the same JB version of Flash that I've been using on my SG3 (worked perfectly on all dozens of custom ROMs that I had flashed) and on my ATT Note (also on dozens of ROMs from AOSP, AOKP, to CM10 etc...) But no go on this Verizon Note II. I had to uninstall it. I only use Stock Browser BTW

Good idea! Apparently it is working according to the test pages. Maybe its just certain sites use a different player not suited for mobile...ill download dolphin beta and see if it works. Ive been out of the loop for a bit...why has adobe stopped supporting android? That was a major advantage of android in the early days.
Web site is probably borked and not handling browser user agent ID correctly. For example, videos on main page Yahoo don't work but Yahoo Movies do. Other tech news sites work too.

CNN videos work fine for me in Boat Browser. Been using that browser exclusively for about 6-months now and is about the best and fastest browser for Android with Dolphin coming in a close second.
You can get all of the Flash versions, and the latest (old) version of Dolphin that supported Flash from this link here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774336
I'm using the latest version of Flash (11.1.115.27) and the latest version of Boat Browser.
Just letting you guys know...CNN is a strange website in that
If you ever enter CNN without the Desktop Mode enabled and try to watch a video, then they drop a cookie in your browser, so when you come back to the website with Desktop mode, flash videos will not work. So the solution is to clear your cache.
I am having the best luck with Beta Firefox, addon: Desktop by Default (makes sites think your phone is a normal computer so no mobile bull****) and Adblock Plus (gets rid of most annoying popups etc)
Also found that when you go full screen on flash videos, you should turn the phone to the correct side of landscape so the video doesn't have to flip 180 or 90 degrees and there be a chance for it to freeze; sounds odd but a really buggy old flash page kept freezing when I went full screen the wrong way but loaded normally when I used the correct method.
Coming from the GNex, seems like Samsung's software is a little less forgiving then Google's unfortunately so steps like this seem necessary for the moment.

I just tried Firefox Beta again. Still blows. There's no full-screen, no homepage, no way to keep "request desktop" permanent, no way to access tabs in the full-screen add-on without turning full-screen add-on off, accessing tabs, then turning full-screen add-on back on again.
Desktop by Default seemed buggy and not always on.
Although Firefox was blazing fast, they've got a long way to go options-wise before they can compete with other mobile browsers.
