Coming from an Inspire I had no idea that flash wad no longer supported past 4.0, and I thought I wouldn't need it with browsers like chrome and Firefox. What are people using instead to get flash on sites that require it?

Try this thread. Download and install the apk. It will not work in all browsers because they don't support it anymore, but you can find some older versions through Google search and use those. The thread has an older version of Dolphin listed for download.

Isn't flash player built into the stock browser?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Yes, flash is already installed. You will need to go to stock browser settings and enable.
I use Maxthon browser if i need to view flash websites. Doesn't work with Dolphin though.

I just started using dolphin browser and have found it to be far superior to the stock browser. Is it safe to remove the stock browser? Has anyone here done so with no problem?

Only downside is that HTC's Flash Lite is only integrated in stock browser. Dolphin has an add-on to download flash video , but it is somewhat limited.
You can do a comparison of some of the flash sites from this page :

I uninstalled Dolphin Browser HD. But there is still a folder called TunnyBrowser in myfiles. That folder is 6.2mb and contains 25folders and 407 files in it. Is it safe to delete that folder?
I have now switched to Opera

It's safe to delete, I got rid of it.

Stock browser is okay and Dolphin HD had its benefits. But after using Opera for about a month it's unlikely I'll ever be using another browser. Opera is just awesome.

I switch between Dolphin HD and Chrome. Both are better than stock IMHO, but each has a few small failings which necessitates both being used.

I've tried Dolphin HD, Chrome, Opera, and the stock. I find myself switching around, but lately I've been using opera, I find it more finger "friendly". the other browser switching tabs is a pain with my fingers, with opera the layout much better.

Yea just install the apk and it should work with the default browser.. doesn't seem to work with chrome though..
Yes, sideload go in to firefox settings and enable plugins so it doesnt require prompt.

I hate flash - particularly on Windows PC's where we seem to get the flash player update of the week. Yet, I can't quite seem to do without it. Inevitably I'll hit some site where I need it and just saying that I refuse to visit sites that use it won't work for me. I wish it did.
However, with Apple never supporting it on iOS and now support for it on Android going away slowly, I sure hope it dies soon. For now though, I need it.

You can find some methods of reaquiring flash with a pinch zoom comparable version of Dolphin Browser here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846225
Thanks for the suggestions, but I am aware of dolphin and the other suggestions and they are not what I am looking for. How can we fix the JB Rom for the Prime to be like the Tf300 JB Rom so flash works in the stock browser? Not a debate on flash vs html5, just need it to work for one website for a family member who needs it for their internal work site for American Airlines. Again it is working with JB for tf300, just not on Prime with the same flash package and browser.

Not sure why Flash wouldn't be working for you in the stock JB browser. As long as I have Flash 11 installed, my stock browser is rendering flash content fine. Are you certain you have the latest version of Flash installed and that the stock browser is set to always for plugins? Noticed you were looking for a FLASH check box, but you actually need to look for the PLUG-INS setting which is located in "settings" "advanced". Also some flash content doesnt work in the "on demand" mode (for instance flow player)
You can find archived Flash versions here since you can't download from play store anymore.
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
You can install these as long a you have "allow unknown sources" checked in the security settings on the Prime.
Anyone know of a compatible version of flash player for JB Rom? Running MB and noticed a few sites that I've been using for the last few months recently started displaying messges about flash player needing to be installed.

I know a lot of the browsers stopped supporting flash which sucks. Chrome and Dolphin both stopped supporting flash.
The HTC browser still has it for now. You have to select it in the menu for it to come up.

Install the .apk as normal.
Also Chrome doesnt support flash content regardless whether flash is installed or not.
I personally use Firefox over Chrome for that reason.
