Is there any way to get the stock ICS browser to work on JB.
I am currently loving the ICS browser running on my JB Xoom because I get to use flash.
The Chrome browser does not support flash and I find it to be slow compared to the ICS browser.
I pulled the .akp out of the Xoom rom but it will not install on my Nexus 7 for some reason.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
(I was using Dolphin on the Nexus 7 for flash but today it updated and permanently disabled flash)
Read this thread , you'll need root.
Use Opera Mobile, it's not only faster than Chrome and stock ICS browsers, it's more compliant on HTML5test and supports flash, even on Jellybean (as long as you have the Flash player APK to install)

I tried to use Opera Mobile and it isn't stable at all on my nexus 7. For example, tried loading msn. com and it crashes immediately. I tried rebooting after install and it still loads the page and crashes out. I tried reinstalling and still no luck getting the Opera browser to be stable.
Yeah I gave Opera a try and it crashed when I tried using Flash on CNN. Old browser has been going strong since putting it on and following the directions in the other thread
Perhaps you could try using ICS Browser+?
ICS Browser+ was reported to crash in the other thread about chrome/aosp browser

Hello,
Is anyone using Fennec (firefox mobile) and able to use flash player? Keeps asking to install the plug-in even though I have flash loaded. (and working under stock browser)
I'd swear it was working when I first installed Fennec.
Thanks,
Neudle
I think it's just an issue of the browser not supporting it at the time. Hopefully they'll get that worked out in the next update, as it is a release candidate.
I haven't had luck with Firefox and Flash either, that's why I mainly use the stock browser.

Ya, Flash no workie atm: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/4.0/releasenotes/
My browser is horrible on RCS 4.2 of ICSGS using semaphore kernel latest one
and it happens with all kernels , the weird thing is videos of RC 4.0 don't show any lagg in browser ....what could be the problem ? ty
the browser works fine for me. But you can try installing Dolphin Browser HD if the stock browser is not working perfectly.
indeed dolphins browser is way better but videos still lag but not the videos of YouTube
Try Reinstalling Flash 11
Why dont you try google chrome? It still has a bug or two but it is blazing fast
I`m currently using RC 4.2 with semaphore kernel 0.8.0 and internet browser works just fine...recently I installed Google Chrome, works like a charm ! Try to fix permissions over CWM after installing a new kernel, or use This Tool ! Download the miui/cm7 one !

m8 , the browser is horrible :S i don't know how can you call it fine , try going to www.youm7.com and just try to pinch zoom ...let me know of the results ))) if it is smooth , then i have something wrong
Hi, I'm on RC 4.2 and Devil 14.2 kernel. I use Opera Browser and there is no lag using zoom in any page, included the one that you proposed.
You should try reflashing the rom as sometimes it gets better after reflashing.

+1 for the Opera Browser (not Opera mini, cause no desktop UA). Fast, no lag, not even on desktop browsing mode.
My favourite by far.
hi everybody. i want to show you my problem during internet navigation, hoping someone can help me. usually, tapping on (1, in the picture) should appear a menu (2, always in the picture) that shows the possible choices.
on my galaxy note, when i tap on (1) the browser always crashes, because it can't open that menu.
i've tried dolphin hd, opera, firefox and the stock browser, and every browser crashes, so i can say it's a rom problem.
can somebody help me solving this problem?
P.S. i'm on GB LC1 pre-rooted rom, but i don't remember exactly from which post i've downloaded it, and franco kernel 10
or its a website issue
Works fine on my unrooted latest GB.

Try t.zedge.net
It's the mobile version and working for me on darkyrom 3.4.1 with speedmod 2k-12
i'm sorry, i have explained myself badly. that issue happens on every site, in both mobile and desktop version on each browser
That's weird. Have you tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache in CWM?
try using an alternate browser like, opera, mercury, dolphin or skyfire
Could also be caused by the theme you flashed(assuming). There was also an issue before w/ ICS Domination theme related to browsing.

Just as you said. It is a rom problem. Try to flash another GB rom. You can try Chrack's rom, DarkyROM, CheckROM, Cassie's XtraLiteRom. I tried all of these roms and have no problem with web browsing.
any one get flash player working with CM10 or PAC Roms??? i tried all flash player listed for ICS non of them worked, the result any browser will stuck when i try to run flash player.
You try with slim rom ?
Have you tried searching for a solution? Google brings up tons of results --> https://www.google.ca/search?q=adobe+flash+jelly+bean
i tried all these flash player ,the one for ICS non of them worked. also i tried them on slimbeans,CM10 and PAcman roms. flash player work fine on CM9 android 4.0.4 but not on 4.1.2.
This specific method (link) claims that Flash only works in Dolphin Browser HD 8.5.1 (specific version) and it may also be laggy and/or buggy. Probably your best option, I would think.
Honestly, Flash is just a thing of the past, and it needs to die already. Most major Flash-enabled sites have switched over to HTML5 already, and those who haven't probably will soon once they notice their analytics are dropping off. Mozilla is working on a SWF player for Android, and I actually disagree with it. The web needs to move on from Flash. When these tools are made to keep a dead format going, nobody is going to innovate for a better future. HTML5 is worlds beyond Flash, so why even bother with the obsolete and cumbersome product?

Hello, does anybody know if Flash Player can work on Android 4.3 (not the official versions for Nexus) ? I saw that it's possible to run on 4.4 KitKat Nexus devices ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548001 ), but i want to run on my HTC One, CM 4.3.1 Rom. So far, the only browser that seems to work for me is Puffin Web Browser, but the 'plugin is missing' error still came when i'm entering Adobe's Flash Player test. I've tried some flash player apk's with Dolphin Browser, but the flash player test still fails. If you know how to, please, put the right steps and apk version for Flash. Thanks !

Already did this, works only on 4.4 KitKat, not 4.3 JellyBean. I've tried with Mozilla Firefox, same thing.
