[Q] Run Flash directly from browser - AT&T LG Optimus G

N00b I know... BUT all I've found on the internet is to download the Flash player 11.1 Apk and install it, tried that and it didn't work as a matter of fact now the default browser won't load but that's not big deal, I rather use chrome or mozilla but same thing, I try to run an app from facebook and all it asks for a flash player update even with java and flash enabled from the settings of the browser. The one on the play store says it is not compatible with the device (What the heck!?... I was able to use in a lower device as the optimus 3D Max p720) please help before I return the god d**m phone

Try xScope pro browser, delete whichever flash you have before installing xScope. It will have prompts to install flash when you first open browser. Go in to settings afterwards at set it for desktop view.

I'll try it just now

I'll even hard reset the whole thing LOL

+1 for xscope pro. Would still be the best browser around even if it didn't support flash.

I'm IMPRESSED! with puffin really, AWESOME browser I'm defenitly going pro with that browser but I'll try xScope once my puffin trial expires and see wich one I like the most

Here's the original Flash plugin from LG firmware.
I restore adobe flash player every time I upgrade a ROM, this will enable the built in browser, or AOSP browser to use adobe flash for all webpages. Doesn't work with chrome (last i tried anyway, 3 months ago)
Including candy crush, and any web players. Enjoy.View attachment com.adobe.flashplayer-9494d02bd392db9fc468e62040d6089b.apk

I have tried firefox, dolphin and builtin.
Dolphin shows flash ads at times, but for instance, espn.com does not play videos when I launch one. I click on a flash video in dolphin but it does not load.
Firefox just says its not installed.

I tried with the stock browser and Firefox. Stock browser shows a down arrow and Firefox says not installed. I installed flash from the [Guide] thread on installing CWM, roms, market fix and flash. Any thoughts? Should I use another browser? Do I need to do anything else besides install like change some settings?
I had a similar issue with 5.1.1 at one point. I uninstalled Flash and then reinstalled it (figured it was worth a shot). It resolved it, strangely.

When I get the down arrow in the stock browser, I just tap on it and then the video will load and play. Yours does not do this?

You could go to browser settings and go to Enable Plug-Ins and select Always On so that you won't have to click on the Flash window, it will automatically start the video.
And the latest Flash works fine on my VEGAn 5.1.1. Just watched two episodes of Family Guy on Fox Television's website last night.

To get espn.com videos working I had to go into browser settings and change my device to Ipad. I think they are HTML5 but not sure. I use xscope browser

Yeah, but when I do that then all the aggravating flash ads automatically run too. I'd rather be able to just see the ones I want to see and let the others go....
Thanks for your response though. Good to know.

Firefox 9.0 apk?

Anyone have a link to the new Firefox 9 apk as it is no longer compatible with the nook tablet via the android market like the old one use to be.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/9.0b6/android/en-US/
Thanks for that link
And that is the beta version of firefox
Go up a few directories: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/
It should be pointed out: neither release or beta builds update themselves. You will need to do so manually.
Maybe check out Firefox's Aurora channel? It can update itself.
This is a better link:

I agree completely. I am a die-hard Firefox fan; been using it since it was Firebird. But the mobile version is crap It's slow and half the pages didn't load for me. I switched to Dolphin HD and it was much better than Firefox or Opera Mini. And I was still able to load all my Firefox bookmarks using the Xmarks addon for Dolphin.
yea i agree with the previous two people. I tried aurora but it just doesnt run fast as dolphin...at all
I already use dolphin HD on all my android devices but i wanted to be able to use my bookmarks from my desktop firefox and be able to blobk ads like i can with firefox desktop and firefox mobile. I can not find anything simalir for dolphin hd which sucks as when i play flash based vides they get slowed down if there are flash based ads on the screen and i cant just click ont he single element i wanna run it has to run all the flash elements on the page instead of just the one i want. That is why i was looking to use firefox over dolphin because the mobile version has ad block plus and i just wish i could get the same for dolphin hd but i ahvent found any way to do the same thing.

I found a way to watch adobe flash on Nexus 10 without rooting

Not sure if this is old news or not...
1) Download & Install 'archived flash' from adobe site flash for android 4.x @ http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.27/install_flash_player_ics.apk
(if not there search google for 'adobe archived flash player')
* Make sure you go into settings and put a checked box by unknown sources or it won't let you install it since the apk you just download is not from the google play. Afterward, you can go back and uncheck it for better security.
2) Install Dolphin for Pad v1.0 @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dolphin.browser.pad&hl=en
* After installation, go through the wizard and change the agent to Desktop (or change it later in Dolphin's Agent in settings)
It's been working on most flash site for me
I have flash on my dolphin browser, I installed same version of flash as you linked to and deleted some setting within the data folder of dolphin browser (I don't remember exactly where on XDA I found the post).
How does the dolphin for pad work compared to the normal dolphin browser? Is it betteR?

Not really. Dolphin for Pad hasn't been updated in months and user reviews reflect the lack of interest from the developer.

yes, it is better for me.
Latest regular dolphin has feature disable that will not work with flash.
You have to restore old dolphin version to get it working with flash. When I did that, it was superslow and stuttering almost unusable for me that I can't even watch some streaming sports channel on it so I gave up and tried others...and found this work smoother and faster for me despite others low review. As long as it works for my Nexus 10, I didn't care about the reviews. I don't need all the features other negative reviewers were asking.

I don't have this phone, still on the Note II, but you can try downloading it directly from Adobe (Flash Player Archives. Scroll down to the Android. Make sure you get the one for Android 4. I think it'll probably work.
Don't forget to use a flash player friendly browser such a Boat, Dolphin, or the crappy generic one (non Chrome) that Samsung throws in.

Yea, flashplayer for android was discontinued at 11.1 so we're stuck with what we've got. I concur with this recommendation for Dolphin browser and enable flash always on in the settings. Either way, don't expect it to work perfectly. For example, I can't get Amazon Prime videos to play no matter what flashplayer.apk I try or browser I use. It just doesn't work. I'd have to spoof my device identity somehow.

It's a bit of crap shoot on what sites will work and won't. What I find best, go into your browser settings, change how browser to act as desktop browser. You may need to change to something like IE, Firefox or so forth from Android (this defaults to mobile sites).
I don't recommond Flash always on. I suggest On-Demand if available. Some sites are very flash heavy and this will help load times and data usage. Plus, given how things can be, Flash isn't always stable on the mobile, so it helps with those.
I've run into odd issues such as Kompster. It overall fine for Sirius NFL through the webbrowser. It will work for Motogp video, but on the my tablet, but to mirror on a TV, I need to half screen first, then plug in the HDMI cable, otherwise it won't show the race and Flash Player crashes. NFL Game Pass service works for games, but the archived shows start and crap out after about thirty seconds. I find overall for sites that use it for navigation or downloading, it works fine.
As for browsers, I suggest Boat browser. I found if Dolphin is working, it works well with Flash Player. I couldn't get Dolphin to load on the Note 2. Also, there is some evidence that Dolphin stores browsing history; supposedly it to make web browsing faster. I also think Boat has a smaller footprint. Boat also has a tablet version that I've been able to able to download and load on the Note 2. Nice looking. It's in beta. I found that not everything works in that version as does the normal Boat browser.

Nexus 9 - Adobe Flash player for Android 5.0 Lollipop

Hi all,
Does anyone know whether Adobe Flash will ever work on Android 5.0 Lollipop (Nexus 9, specifically)?
Not a fan of Flash at all, but one of the reasons I am getting Nexus 9 is to be able to watch sport streams, all of which are unfortunately still Flash-based.
Thank you!

I don't have Nexus 9 yet. I remember that Flash was breaking with each minor Android version upgrade, so I assumed a jump to v5 would be a near total rewrite
Side loading flash + using Firefox or Dolphin should do the trick

Dumb question: how do I side load flash?
I'm running L preview on my N7 but haven't had success with flash on Dolphin. Dolphin was updated a day or so ago so that it now works on L with Jetpack enabled. I just haven't been able to view flash video. YMMV. I hope it does. I will try again once the official os drops so I can flash it.

really? with each version of Android comes a code base change with new code added and old code deprecated/removed so yes each version of android does matter with 3rd party apps. no one is updating flash for android anymore so if its not already broken then it will very soon as Android is going the way of HTML5 not flash.
Well, my Nexus 5 with Latest Lollipop version can't load flash with this procedure (Dolphin+jetpack+flash), so maybe IT IS a matter of Android version...
WebView (the internal web system) now is based off of Chromium which has never supported Flash on Android. Final nail in the coffin. You can install it but nothing will be able to use it.
Is this why I can not watch any Amazon Prime Instant video?
Puffin seems to be working great for Flash content.
I installed the free version of Puffin and subscribed to the flash service. I made sure that in settings flash was set to load automatically. I tried to play some of the free Amazon Prime instant videos, the player would show the connecting/loading circle but the videos never played. I noticed the player was in play mode and not paused. Is there something I missed?
Dolphin and Mozilla not working for me. (Downloaded the flash player apk v11.1)
I'll try puffin.
*edit* Downloaded puffin but couldn't even trial the flash player... Sigh ?

I believe the problem with Amazon has to do with the fact that they don't allow tablet access. I mainly use Puffin to view continuing education videos and it seems to be working fine.
If you guys have some specific sites you want me to check out just let me know.

Very strange. I originally had Uc Browser HD installed and it worked but uninstalled it. Just now reinstalled from Google play to test again. It will open the page but then freezes?
