I have been using gingerbread still for the sole purpose of flash support. Is flash working on ICS for us? I spent an hour looking on google and didn't find much. Some devices work, like asus transformer. Some said on cm9 it works.
I've already upgraded to ics and downgraded back once, there was no way to make it work then. when ics first officially came out for us tho. German release.

If your on ics just download in google play adobe flash player.
Flash is fully supported until jelly bean. Even then if you are on cm9 with flash installed and upgrade to CM10 without wiping, flash will remain and work correctly in cm10

Well I m using cm10 now and as we know that adobe flash is not supported by jelly bean or let's say flash don't want to support jellybean
So what I did to get it work is UST downloaded the adobe flash 11.apk and everything worked as usual :thumbup:

Yes, all works, so what I understand Adobe is saying is there will be no updates or fixes, but you can still use without problems, until the time some new OS conflict makes it not work anymore. Then it is over.

Can you confirm that flash content plays fine on ICS in different browsers? (Stock,Opera,FireFox,Chrome,Dolphin HD)
I haven't found much discussion on this topic except for that people seem to have problem with adobe flash support after upgrading to ICS.
Flash...
Too bad adobe has decided to support on JB.
I have written this few times on other thread. But i m going to write again though.
Adobe has stopped its support for mobile device.
And adobe has even removed the flash app on google play since 15 or 16 august.
So, in theory, u won't be able to find adobe flash on google play.
Nevertheless, if u have installed it before u update to JB, flash player might still able to run.
And if u want to try after install JB, and u have the apk file for flash player, it might be able to run.
What adobe has decided is only to stop its support. Means no more update on flash player on mobile devices like android. Adobe will only concentrate on pc and laptop for its flash player.
Remember....
Google is our best friend. And it can give whatever u want.

Are you on stock rom? Or Nova or cyanogenmod? . If stock then rooted it not? Because you can use titanium to wipe YouTube and uninstall it and then you can reinstall from market.
Well I have the stock ROM............
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App
Then as i said, root it and use titanium backup to wipe and uninstall Youtube. Then install it again from market. This should solve any error.
ok i ll try to root it but can u tell me what rom u r using and the steps to root this phone plz
I am using cyanogenmod nightly v19 with knzo kernel v7.
Well, as a word of advice to you, please brows at least top 10-15 threads of xda optimus black's General and Android developement sections. It will help you a lot to get max out of your device.
thanks helping me dude................................ rooting my phone seems complicated............................. can i just wait for ginger bread update or cyanogenmod nightly v19 with knzo kernel v7........................which is better?
If you are not into much modding experience like changing governors, schedulers, frequencies etc and stock meets your need, better wait for official GB update, since nightlies have its own bugs.
Anyways, i would like to mention that discussing about rom and etc. should continue in appropriate thread. Let's keep this place for adobe flash related problems and discussions only that may arise with someone.
You're not just a Reverend, you're a God.
I'll be doing this after work for sure! Tired of getting denied by so many sites that I visit that still use Flash.
is there any reason why this is better than using Firefox beta from the GP store, and getting flash from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1214700&d=1342976097 as per another post on this board? This didnt require root, and was very simple.
Works for me anyway.

Worked like a charm using Boat Browser. Thanks!
The play store has pulled the flash downloader, it's not there anymore.
You can still find flash and sideload it by googling "flash 11.1.111.8 apk"
Frankly even this last version of flash is buggy and doesn't live up to its desktop counterpart. And unfortunately there won't be any more updates.
(edit) Ah, they haven't pulled this version of the flash downloader yet,they have however pulled 2 others, and rather quickly too. I suspect that this one may not last too long, grab it while you can.
After updating my Note (India) to ICS 4.04 I noticed that flash no longer works in the stock browser. It is not even available in the PlayShop anymore.
I tried installing other browers too but non of them show the option to enable flash plug-in in their settings. (Have attached a screenshot of the settings page for your reference).
So how do we view flash based websites and flash video on ICS 4.04?
Any help with this issue would be most appreciated.

Why does flash not work on Galaxy Note?? I am using Note myself and its on Android 4.0.4, and flash works fine. See the screen shots.
But i do remember one thing while i was updating my Note from gingerbread to ICS. I got my Note updated to ICS but could not find SNote app in it, later I have factory reset my phone and then rebooted it. Then rather than booting automatically, it again went to Update mode and started instaling something. When my phone was ready with ICS, i got the SNote app. Try factory resetting and rebooting ur phone after backing up all the imp data, like pics, music, vids, contacts, apps(apk files) etc etc. Hope this works.

Did you get it to work after a reset? I am curious to find out as there is not much discussion out there with people confirming flash to work fine on ICS. (I am wondering if the performance is similiar or actually worse? Is hardware acceleration working on the Note with ICS for flash?) Many people seem to have problem with flash content after upgrading to ICS...
I m on 4.0.4, and flash is working well.
I google for the apk and install it on my device.
Works well... U only can't find it on google play.

Hi guys,
Just posting to say that yesterday I flashed the ICS from the USA on my P7310XWKJ5 (Europe).
All I needed to do was follow this great instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582943
The file to flash, by Odin, is this one:
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/169458139/5cca4ab/P7310UELPB_P7310XARLPB_XAR.zip.html
Guys... there is no need to worry. This is an official update from Sammy so if you have the Honeycomb stock there will be no problem at all.
I believe that Europe didn't receive the update only to avoid everyone in the world updating at the same time.
ICS with Touchwiz is simply great. The tablet is now much smoother and faster. ICS is much better then HC.
The only thing that you will lose in the update is the config of your 5 homes. Besides that, all your apps will be ok and your saved data.
Don't wait anymore... flashing Odin style and enjoy the best Samsung as to offer.
At least I did...
Cheers! Coragem com isso!
P.S: make sure you have the samsung drivers on your pc... to test it just install Kies and connect your tablet. If Kies recognizes your tablet then you are good to go.
BTW: no need to thank... I didn't do anything... I just pressed my balls against one another (crossed my fingers) and did the update. Thanks for your help almaalma74.

Has anyone else tried this method? I am tired of waiting here in Spain for the ICS update, and with Sammy's background there is a low probability of receiving it in the short-term. Which are the implications of install the USA version? Will I be able to use OTA for update the tablet in the future? Its better to install via CWM? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

LOL, just gave you a free "thanks" - clicked wrong button.
Anyway, lots of people have done that - well, at least the update using the USA ICS, of course they were coming from a variety of ROM (not only that xwkj5)
Anyway, there's no reason it shouldn't work. A few people (strangely, mostly from Switzerland) had an issue, that the ICS failed to work properly (garbled screen) and found they had to Odin-flash a specific HC 3.2 version, and only then it worked. But that's a minority, and the solution is simple.
future OTA - if you load this ROM, you will get future OTA distributed to the "USA" market. (until you flash another region's ROM)
What to install... if you want to make sure to have the original ICS experience from Samsung (with nothing removed or added), I would recommend to use the stock file for Odin. If you want, you can follow that up with an Odin-flashable recovery & a root.zip flashed from recovery.
see e.g.
for download Odin-flashable recovery (I still prefer the slightly older 5.1.2.6 - for a more complete and logical menu than 5.5.0.4; and more reliable than 6.x)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30839339&postcount=52
for root package:

Thanks guys for the help. With the fingers crossed today I flashed the usa version via Odin. Simple procedure and very happy with the update. It preserved everything just like a normal update. So long any bugs, huge improvement of perfomance, certainly a new experience. I will try to root it in the nexts days when I have time. Thanks to everyone except Sammy

I updated my P7300 with this image and it works great, except for the obvious loss of 3G.
If you don't have a current requirement for 3G then I can definitely recommend the update.

I updated my UK GT-P3710 with US Stock ICS via ODIN. Initially smooth and good update. I have had 3 freezes while updating Titanium Backup Pro around 100+ apps. I ended up restoring apps individually with no freezes. I also noticed some brief pauses while playing Airline Control which I have noticed in the past with ICS Custom roms.
I flashed CMW5.5.04 and then used original root from recovery to gain root. No problems. Camera is working great.
I am now trying to flash A1 kernel ver 1.7 wifi to see if I can overclock. FAIL so I restored original boot.img. Overclock might have to wait.
I am liking ICS so much I might get a Galaxy S3 now with rumours of JB update coming.

I just flashed it using ODIN on my 7300... it works without any problem (but without 3G of course).
Just for info: Flashing using ODIN replaces the recovery as well.... so afterwards you will have to re-flash (again using ODIN) a custom recovery in order to continue playing...
OK, this may be a stupid question and I apologize in advance but how do you get adobe flash to work on the experia z? I have the APK file for the latest version of flash and it has installed properly but I don't see any settings within chrome to enable plugins..? Am I missing something?
Chrome has no flash support.
Dolphin withdrew it also.
Try Boat browser.
Since Xperia Z runs Android OS, v4.1.2 (Jelly Bean),you may need to install the flash player manually.
Flash works with Firefox browser.

Yea, I have the leaked APK. I used it on the droid DNA when I was trying it out and it worked fine and enabled flash and the DNA has jellybean 4.1. Not sure if the droid DNA was using chrome as the default browser or not. I wanna say no. Anyway, I did try the same thing with the experia Z and it does NOT turn on flash on google chrome. It does work with firefox thou. Thanks again all.
