[Q] Cant get flash player to work on Jelly bean - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

1.Well I got the CM10 on a I9000 and i installed flash player on it. I used an old version of dolphin(from some thread) so i could enable flash.
But whenever i go to a website to check out some videos it either says "You must install flash" or the website doesnt load
2.I originally used opera 11.0.2 to play flash but now whenever i start a flash content it crashes with no errors.(This seems to be a ROM related problem) Ill be posting my suggestion here since i can't post in their topic XD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778526)
Well if they can fix the opera from crashing it will be awesome:good:

Adobe have dropped support for flash on Jelly Bean 4.1.
However if you look around there are some working APK's.

[Q] Adobe Flash Player problem after upgrading to 4.0.3

So last night i upgraded to 4.0.3 by samsung kies, and after using it for a while i realized that the flash player doesn't seem to work even though i already had the adobe flash player 11 app
I went to google play store and tried to update, but for some reason this error keep popping up "Your order is processing, your item will be available in few minutes"
When i tried to uninstall, i got stuck in the uninstalling process, so i restarted the phone (even though it was still uninstalling, very dumb of me )
After the restart, apparently the adobe flash player 11 did uninstall, but now when i try to download it from google play i keep having that same error again, the "Your order is processing, your item will be available in few minutes"
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Did i screw up badly and i need to factory reset now?
There is a few people complaining about Google play is acting up. What version do you have? I think the issue was with .21

What about maybe ics DOESN'T support adobe flash. I've read in numerous posts on Web that adobe flash will NOT be supported for ics. If true that's your problem....google it end find out but I'm sure that's the case!
DON'T MESS WITH STEWY GRIFFIN ! (What the ....!) Sgs2
i managed to install the program by downloading from web browser from my pc...
but when i run the flash player settings app i just have a black screen now
and after a while it crashes with the error saying "Unfortunately, Adobe Flash Player 11.1 has stopped."

Adobe flash is not supported in ICS! AND guess what nobody was ready for that! The forums should accept a little responsibility for not posting about ICS not supporting (adobe ) flash.

"This update to Adobe Flash Player 11 includes compatibility with android 4 supported devices, performance improvements blablabla"

Look I'm not 100% sure on this. But The answer to the market saying supports 4.0 devices is probably for tablets etc. just a guess. Why it's not supported by flash (adobe flash by the way) I don't know -something to do with Html5 being brought in to view video content). PS I have read somewhere that adobe DID say that 4.0 will be the last platform that they will support with flash. Whether they haven't got round to it yet is something I'm not sure about . But it will be supported at some time. when I don't know?
Hope this helps and .quells peoples fears

Can you be more specific. What do you mean it worked for flash player. Clearing market data worked for flash player? Did flash work on ics, because I've read that alot of people can't use flash to watch video in ics. Appreciate the feedback.

[Q] Flash player on CM9 Beta

Just wondering if anyone has got adobe flash player to work on CM9 Beta? I'v been trying around with pretty much every version avalible. I have not seen much about it in the CM9 Beta dev thread. I hope people dont take this as an attempt to be pushy about it, I'm just wondering how to progress is going. The CM9 Beta from zeubea is very much appreciated and I'm very thankful for it.
It will not fully work but you can still install it.

Okey, which version is that? 10.1, 10.2, 10.3? Cause 11 will never work right.

Here's how I make mine work :
Install 10.3 apk, which is actually flash 11. After installing don't open just reboot.
You will find flash setting in your app drawer. Just do whatever setting suits you
Flash will work only on the stock Google browser. I tried with opera next it dun work.
Now just go to bbcsports football and try. It works all the time for me.
It works, don't get me wrong but it doesn't work well. Flash videos on the internet lag like a ***** to the point where it is unplayable. I'm using version 11 (or so it says)

I did what you said ndmuni and it's still not working.
I downloaded it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340773 which I thought should be the right version.
The app said 10.3 not 11 as Stevemotto mentioned.
I then uninstalled and tried from the same thread I found the first one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23663364&postcount=28
That one said 11.v11.0.1.153 in the app.
Still the same result.
I tested BBCSports football with the original browser and the result has always been it tells me to download adobe flash player and it links me to adobe saying
I got the wrong verison.
It's really hard for me to give this one up as I know that some live streams I watched before worked fine with another rom, and when you guys says it works for you.
I would really appreciate if you guys can link me the page where you downloaded your version. It would help me narrow down the possible factor that I might still have the wrong version.
Thanks for helping me out.

Hey guys, as zeubeas rom is still in beta0 and there is still some issues with the 2D drivers (something to do with debug), plus most of codecs are still broken, I have also tried most of the versions of flash available with out much success. These issues I suggest could also be related to cm9 itself, from what I've seen our ics is ported from an RC anyway and not from a stable version. Hopefully this is a fixable issue, and not one of those non fixable issue.

[Q] Adobe Flash

we all know that adobe has stopped development on Flash for mobile devices.. however, some have been able to save the last flash apk file..
I was wondering, why do developers not add this to their Roms so we dont have to look for said apk and install manually? does it somehow break the rom or perhaps make the rom "slower"?
The reson most people don't include is that adobe stopped development there is a reason, why add something buggy to a rom which is trying to have kleast bugs possible? Everything is turning to html5 coding, but if you really want just download it from trhe android general section, or download pimp my rom and extract it from there and just add it personally to any rom, or install it and when you backup apps before flashing you'll always have it. plus Opera has it embedded and opens anything without probs....

sounds reasonable..
hmmm.. opera you say? i have been using quick ics... havent really used opera since my symbian days... tried dolphin, ics plus, maxthon, and quick...
Thanks for your reply.
Some problems
But it's kind of strange when there are still sites and elements which aren't included in HTML5, maybe it was too fast, and ASOP browser has sometimes problems as well..

this is not 100% right. theres still some (bit) development in flash apk even for GB time to time but the main reason why adobe say our devices are not supported are: like u said right (previous) versions was laggy or dont work, and 2nd thing was many ppl complained to adobe that sth in some browser in some custom rom didnt works, and adobe said that they werent very well interested iin shipping flash to all devices (to much dev. and $ maybe ) thats why some devices have a flash-certification, they are still able to download flash via playstore.--
so short said yes they said its not avaiable, so nobody complains, and who cares (want it) can easily download it still.. also ur right some browser have built in flash :good: , but everybody who need flash can download it from adobe - but they say on its site its not supported to avoid complainments/etc.
for me - i need flash - and it works very well. also thers nearly every mounth a new version, so it seems ther is some developing :good:
link to apk (for jb use 4.0/ics version; w/ normal install): http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
ahh i forgot to say and further reason is that (many) flash objects like embedded youtobe flash code on site are real perfomance-eaters,another reason why there are not maked/meant for our (low memory and cpu) devices, so ur true if u say it sometimes lag... (i browse allways in desktop mode )
Ye Its Buggy
Can I just download Opera and use flash without downloading anything else?

CM 10.1 + Google Play Store App working

Cool!
Just tested kornyone's CM10.1 (cm-10.1-20130206-UNOFFICIAL-doubleshot) for the MT4GS with gapps for jelly bean (gapps-jb-20121212-signed) and it works smoothly so far. Had issues previously with the Gapps on previous editions of CM10.... but now it seems to be working.
Many thanks to kornyone and whoever keeps the updates of the Google "Stock Apps" going.

I'm not sure whether you've got it working already, but for me it was something with the version of the ROM that i was using. For some reason Google Stock Apps would not work on cm-10.1-20130101-UNOFFICIAL-doubleshot, but they worked with cm-10.1-20130206-UNOFFICIAL-doubleshot. What was changed in the versions, i'm not quite sure.
I downloaded the latest version of Gapps (gapps-jb-20121212-signed) from "donandroid.com/gapps", loaded it onto the SD card and used the ClockWorkMod Recovery tool (that you can get to run at Boot up) through the Advanced menu (or something close to that). Look for the option that says something like install software from ZIP file on SDcard
Hope that helps.
NB: ...on the page "donandroid.com/gapps" it says that the version that i used is incompatible with 4.1.2 ... so you might want to try the next version after that.
