Anyone else having issues with the new flash 11.0.1.152 . I'm on GTabComb 3.3. When using both the stock browser & Opera Mobile flash is acting weird. Some sites I get not video, some it keeps reloading the page over & over, others refuse to play at all & these are sites ones that previously worked on Opera Mobile.
I'm having a different issue. my webpages load correctly using opera and dolphin HD. my issue is lets say youtubes site for example the video is garbled like a broken NES game sound plays fine. but another site works perfect with no issues. its hit or miss. I tried brilliant corners, C&C, beasty, FB, and Vegantab all same issue. I recently tried Pershoots latest kernel with Vegantab (GB) and same issue is still present.

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to check how does skyfire allow playing of flash files?
I am watching videos on vimeo and youtube without a problem.... Its weird.... I thought this couldn't be done?
BTW I DO have Flash 10.1 installed on Captivate, but doesn't work on default browser, but everything else through their player does.....

Skyfire supposed to play flash with no need of anyother software to install & I have a major problem not playing any flash on it says "Web Kit Files" missing, any help please?
I'm having the same issues...
I installed flash for 2.1 and while it will most definitely load a game off addictinggames.com i can't tap any of the buttons.
I'm more interested in using it for firstrow.net so I can watch live soccer and baseball, but everytime I direct to that site the regular browser crashes (tries to load flash app) and skyfire gives me the flash 9 exclamtion point.
has anyone had any success withgetting flash to run on this thing? I wouldn't even mind if flash lite 4 ran on it just so long as it started the video. Skyfire will load vimeo but not any others....
I can't believe that everyone else in the entrie android 2.1 community is having zero issues, but I can't find a single thread about issues... the engadget video of the desire running the flash video is so tantalizing...I want the same :-(
just so everyone knows what I have installed, I gott he flash_for_21.apk from the zip file and it installed no issue. .swf files will play in the browser...but anything that has a vimeo, tube8, or regular old flash plugin will not load. the regular browser crashes every now and then and skyfire just refuses to load it (or it notifies that there is a video to watch, and it'll buffer and the video requiring a play click won't load)
help please?! I've got my captivate rooted, sideloading, and bloatware-free, flash is my final frontier!

That's odd, doesn't Skyfire use server-side rendering for flash and push it to the phone after compression? Just like on Windows Mobile?
I'd gotten flash videos to play on my Captivate using Skyfire, just not embedded in the page. I had to click on the little, "Video" tab on the bottom Skyfire menu and then it played.

Same here. Once I do that I can play flash video perfectly.
I can do that, but I'm much more interested in embedded flash working with browser or skyfire.
I have some more **shady** places that I can watch live sports from would be amazing if they worked
I dont know if any of you guys have played with the new flashback honeycomb or not but the latest update as far as i could see, is just that it has a flashplayer apk now. So of course if you have your honeycomb setup beautifuly on your gtab.............why would you want to reflash it just for that right? anywho i just tried it in illuminate and it works perfectly here's a link to JUST the modded flash player. it fixed and has now made honeycomb my daily driver

as flashbacks post says in the dev section
"(a4.2)
Added a EXPERIMENTAL FlashPlayer by zebwen. This unfortunately does not fix flash video playback on most sites (YouTube and BBC iPlayer do not work for example, but the small videos on the Yahoo news website do). What this DOES fix, is most other Flash applications, such as web games etc. Using this patched version of Flash, Kongregate Arcade works correctly, as well as other apps such as Zoodles Kid Mode that use flash within the application to play games."
or just install the normal flash player from the market and use opera that works toooo
huh? in flashback honeycomb simply by using opera and flash 10.3 I can get all the flash videos? I thought flash 10.3 was not working on honeycomb?
I have not flashed to any honeycomb alphas yet strictly due to flash video issue.
works with just installing normal flash and using opera, which means its a webkit issue, mind you the video has tearing in it because of drivers (so im told) but definately working
I use the matket flash 10.3 and the dolphin HD browser and it plays all flash videos like youtube on desktop mode and all flash games, facebook apps too. Most browsers out there dont support flash idk why, though i know the default browser supports flash too but lacks add ons anf so on. Using CMT 7
this is about honeycomb dude...not everything else
Dolphin Browser HD works, but need to set the user agent at IPad in setting
It worked for me when watching BBC video.
I'm having all sorts of issues with Opera Mobile 11.5. To name a few:
Flash player seems to not work (loads white boxes)
Pages frequently don't load
Settings menu stays open for all of a second before automatically closing
Is there any way to fix these issues? Opera is a wonderful browser on my phone and the tablet version looks promising if only it worked correctly.
Oh, I've just got whatever the latest flash player is from the market btw.
I've been using Dolphin for tablets but flash doesn't seem to work at all with =\

Alot of reviews on Market say 11.5 is unstable & has problems. It was so bad for me that I immediately uninstalled & restored my 11.1 with Titanium.

11.1 works fine then? I'll have to look and see if I can find a download for that version somewhere on the internet.

Oh thanks a bunch
There are now two kinds of Opera web browser, get the "Opera Mobile web broswer 11.5.3 12.58mb" and flash should work just fine. 240p to720p ( HD resolutions are very laggy)
Running CM9 Alpha 2, been running for months with no problems. Today I was trying to watch a flash video from a site that worked perfectly for me for months, but it was giving me a wierd aspect ratio. So I decided to download Chrome and see how that worked. I did, but it said that flash was not installed. So I went to the Market, but found out that adobe is not letting anyone download flash anymore. So I found an apk of the flash player, installed that, and now flash does not work in ANY app, all I get is the little blue lego box. I went to Titanium and restored a backup of Flash Player, but that still won't work. I have since tried two different apk's of the latest Flash player I found, and none of them are working at all. I have tried every browser I can think of, Chrome, Opera, Dolphin, ICS+, Skyfire, none of them work at all now.
Any suggestions?
Quick update: Flash IS working for things like ads and banners, just not for video. I also saw online that Adobe AIR might be the problem, so I uninstalled that, but with no help.
Another update: I tried my MLB app, which uses Flash player for video, and it plays video just fine. So it seems that Flash video is just not working in ALL browsers....
Flash doesn't work well in the stock or Chrome browsers. I found that if I'm tryin' to watch something to do with Flash, I need to use either Firefox or Dolphin for Tab - I use the latter at the moment, cuz it seems to work pretty well.
Granted, I have an older version of Flash (one that the Market never updated anyway, so it must be as new as it can be). Might be something to consider - install Dolphin or Firefox, THEN install the Flash APK, and you should be able to have it work from there. At least, that's what I did.
I had a problem with BBC I player but when I went into ics browser and changed the settings from Android to desktop it worked, might be worth a try .
Checkout the PUFFIN web browser... turn of force gpu though here's a good site to use it on

Has anyone else found that the Dolphin browser hangs on v4.3? I'm finding that it works for about a minute and then just stops responding. Android notices and asks if I want to stop it or not.
I haven't contacted Dolphin yet.
Alan
BTW - Firefox works OK (but feels clunky). Chrome works OK but doesn't support flash.
No problems here.
Up for 16 hours so far either foreground or background...
yup for youtube
for some reason all flash enabled browsers will load youtube vids as flash instead of html5
flash version will crash it 100%, while html5 will crash when you try to ff.
