I saw this yesterday and thought I'd share:
http://www.nkonecny.com/blog/2012/07/19/adding-flash-to-nexus-7/
Download Adobe Flash Play 11.1 apk here or download it from XDA Developers. After the file has downloaded open and install it.
Please be sure that “Install from unkown sources” is checked off in the Android settings for the Nexus 7.
Install Firefox Beta browser from the Android Market.
That’s it, now you have Flash support on your Android 4.1 (JellyBean) Google Nexus 7 tablet! Couple things to note:
1. This will NOT work with the current build of Google Chrome. A dev may fix this in the future but Google nor Adobe will be adding Flash support to any future builds of Android. I’ve also tried: ICS+ Browser and Dolphin Browser HD, both of which don’t work with the method used above. FireFox seems to be the only browser currently that works with the flash plugin in Android 4.1.
2. that by default FireFox Beta has plugins set to on demand which can cause some minor inconviences, however you can remedy this by going to:
FireFox Beta settings (three dots to right corner) -> Settings -> Plugins -> Select: Enabled

After flash was installed, I just had to quit completely out of Firefox (top right menu -> quit) then reopen it and it worked fine.
The posted apk will also allow flash content on the stock browser as well. Great post thank you.

What do you mean it will allow flash on the stock browser? Do you mean flash will work on chrome? Is this apk an different than the other flash apk's that have been posted in the last couple days?

To head off the inevitable....Flash will not work on the Play Store version of Dolphin as they disabled it on Jellybean. You'd need to side load an older apk.
Firefox Beta and xScope Browser from the Play Store do however work providing you side loaded Flash.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Well this version does work on my nexus 7 and the stick browser kinda.... I notice on certain sites the video freezes at some point while playing 8 out of 10 times. Doesn't at all on my gnex. So it works just not well with some sites not sure why.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Hi Nexus 7 owners....
I'd just like to share my personal experience on the issue...
I tried 3 browsers with the above version of flash.
1.dolphin hd
2.firefox beta
3. puffin
Now, for dolphin, it is fast, but if you try to press that little square icon that takes you to fullscreen mode, the browser crashed every single time at least for me.
As far as puffin is concerned, it was the worst because the videos were laggy and it didn't even respond to the fullscreen icon. (must admit though loading times on this thing, if you dont care about the flash issues, are blazing!!!)
Firefox although loads heavy pages by far the slowest, was the only one from the three that had no lag and the fullscreen icon worked!!! So, until now, thats my choice for flash vids.
What I did notice on all of them, was that the sound of the vids was pretty lower than usual. Anyone else witness this????
Oh, and another thing so there wont be misunderstandings...
There are other ways ofcourse to do the whole flash thing, MAYBE even for stock browser from what a friend tells me, BUT that requires rooting the device. (just for the record)
Many thanks to XDA and everyone else and please share your thoughts on the sound issue and also if you find a browser that does the job like firefox beta, but FASTER!
Do you guys try flashify in market? It uses is like this:
1.whenever you open the flash page with chrome
2.press share
3.choose flashify
4.choose another browser that got flash
It's easy so you no need to use firefox all the time because it's really slow

concerning firefox beta
Unfortunately, although I stated that firefox beta was the only browser that the fullscreen icon on flash video, worked without crashing, that is not the case anymore after the last update on Oct 11, 2012.
If anyone can post the apk of the previous version I would be oblidged.
Ps. Flashify does come in handy if one wants to keep chrome as deafault browser (which is advised) and simply switch to a flash capable browser like firefox without copy-paste but with a couple of clicks.
---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------
Ok, problem solved. Although I dont see many N7 owners too troubled with this issue, I did make a few more "test drives" and it seems like firefox beta version 16.0 is the one to go with. (Along with the rest of the steps pre-mentioned here, that goes without saying.)
Fullscreen works and generally it seems less laggy than any other. (concerning flash videos ofcourse.)
The apk can easily be located via google.
Download directly from the tablet, install it and.... happy flash and with fullscreen working fine!

Scrolling works fine here. But I can't get it to force show desktop versions of certain websites. It'll only show the mobile versions. Also, getting to bookmarks is a bit cumbersome as there are no quick controls as in the standard browser.
Don't expect flash to ever work. Read a FAQ somewhere that there are no plans.
Really wish you could set the us string. Scrolling is super fast.

I agree, it's very fast. Looks awesome on the Xoom. I'm fine without having flash, in fact, I haven't had flash installed for a long time and I've gotten along fine without it. I'll be glad to see some more features added to Chrome.
one thing I noticed (only compared one wiki page) is that chrome for android shows for text (about 2 extra lines) compared to default browser (on my xoom in landscape)
Not regular scrolling. There's supposed to be tilt scrolling where tilting your tablet up or down will scroll using the accelerometer . Also just found out about tab swiping. If you swipe your finger from the edge of the screen you can swipe between tabs. Awesome
Thought tilt scrolling was something different. Guess it doesn't work on tablet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bzdcw6WSr8&feature=player_embedded

The stock browser on Android has always been a separate app. Word on the street is that Chrome will replace the stock browser when it's out of beta, and the current browser will no longer be available in the open source Android os.

So sadly to hear that. Flash is still a huge number sites embed it. Hope they support Chrome in the nearest future when it become default browser of Android os
So after updating to ICS decided to download Chrome. After doing so i found out 'NO FLASH', what gives? I did a search and found out this was known back in February. Regardles of this why push something only to criple it? Is Google becoming Apple or why didnt Adobe include Flash support for Chrome? I guess stuck with Dolphin or now try and use stock browers. What do you guys think of this? I am a bit pissed.

i beleive that the lack of flash is directly related to adobe's decision to stop releasing new iterations of mobile flash. the updates that adobe pushes are merely fixes for the current version of mobile flash. there will be no new version releases afaik.

TBH stock ICS browser is pretty fast IMO not hard to keep it around for the occasional use of flash. Anyhow flash is on the way out with no more official support in 4.1. Wouldn't want to be an adobe shareholder
Only reason why i am asking is because i browse several website that run flash. Not really wanting to have different browser for different sites, but it looks like i will need to.

Not having Flash support on mobile = not having full web experience
even thought Flash is in its way out, it still relevant and widely use in a lot of popular sites (hulu, dailymotion, local news web sites etc) yeah they all offer mobile apps or mobile sites, but that is not the full web experience is crippled experience. The main reason I have an android is to be able to watch every freaking site like on my desktop and watch videos from earthcam and firstrowsports, if 4.1 is not going to have flash support then I'll just move to apple.
hmmm... before i use chrome... i have a little bit hesitation because it dont have flash... but some of the site has start supporting html5 and most of the flash site i used to browse also have no problem being open in chrome...
Adobe Flash Player for Android will die in a month, there is no reason to support it on a new browser. Read this

Hi all,
Before the flaming starts, let me clarify. I love chrome. It's great. Tabbed browsing, chrome to phone and all. However, I enjoy using websites with either streaming content or video on demand. Unfortunately, it seems that Adobe isn't supporting Flash on android 4.0 and higher - and that's their prerogative. This does leave me with a void in my media consumption. Are there any browsers/codecs/something I don't know about which can help solve my internet video problem?
[For example, teamliquid.net]
thanks

It isn't really an American thing, it's a "didn't read it before posting" thing. The phrase makes absolutely no sense.

I'm really interested in the Razr I but the x86 processor worries me that certain apps wont be available. Just because the developer just needs to recompile for x86 doesn't mean they will so please don't try and dampen my worries with that old chestnut.

I was actually getting fed up last night with chrome and chrome beta crashing every 2 seconds so i jumped on play store and grabbed a random browser just for fun, i found UC Browser HD and so far i absolutely love it! It works great in portrait and landscape and it feels like it loads pages really quick.

The AOSP browser by a long mile, IMHO... Sure, the other browsers (Dolphin, Opera, Maxthon) might have more options (lots of bells and whistles), but AOSP has the edge in terms of speed and smoothness.
For anybody not rooted or unwilling to flash a custom ROM, then Lightning Browser is the next best thing to the AOSP browser... (IMHO, of course).

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Tried almost all browsers in market and my favorite browser is AOSP browser love that speed and flash support. But sometime using Chrome because of browser sync feature is really useful.
How do I get firefox to work with flash ?
I tried installing the archived android flash from adobe website and nothing ?
I've recently switched to AOSP browser, and I'm happy with it.
I used chrome before, but got annoyed by those popup bubbles when clicking links, because it ended up showing a bubble EVERY time I'd click something.
And also I can't stand their text scaling, most signatures on XDA were MASSIVE while actual posts were tiny.
I tried other browsers as well, every one had something that bugged me (like swiping from one side would bring up a menu or such...)
I still use Firefox occasionally when chrome or AOSP won't download something or for very rare flash.
