Dolphin flash browser won't pinch to zoom? - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

II have dolphin browser installed to use flash but iI cannot get pinch zoom to work? it will zoom once with a double tap but that's it... Pinch zoom it's checked in settings but doesn't work when browsing, am I missing something? TIA
running Dolphin Hd certain 8.5.1 (supposedly the correct version to run flash)

Dolphin took out the option to use flash, so it doesn't work at all with dolphin. There was an update for dolphin a few days ago, it's not called "dolphin hd" anymore, did you check and see if there is an update for you in the play store? Also try "dolphin beta". Thats what I'm using now and I'm not having the pinch to zoom issues.

I've been avoiding the update, I thought the flash option was removed in the newest version... True?
Does flash work in the beta version?

Well I tried the update and it won't support flash, tried beta for pads and it crashes before ever opening.. guess my only option is 8.5.1 with no pinch to zoom...

Beta actually is working better than the regular dolphin. Have you tried another browser for flash and pinch to zoom like "xcsope" or "boat"?

II tried Boat and didn't like it, Firefox Beta is my main go-to and does aa great job EXCEPT has trouble when iI pinch to zoom while flash it's running.. I'll give xscope aa shot.. thanks for the help, it's much appreciated

I'm liking FF Aurora. Has some nice add-ons... "Always Zoom", "Taptapwrap", "Adblock", "Desktop by default", and of course flash. Could use a more direct path to bookmarks, but I use home shortcuts for favorites.

Thank You! Honestly, I wasn't impressed with the sgs3.... And I was super mad the u. s. carriers changed the color of the beautiful pebble blue of the international version to the blah metallic blue. I'm trying to be good and hold off on buying another phone until I see what google has in store for us with the next nexus.

Exactly....since I already have the international GNote I didn't think getting the international sgs3 was worth it, not enough of an upgrade, imo. And I paid full price for my sgs2, which will be the last time I fork over $600 for a carrier phone...another reason I didn't get the sgs3.

Chrome has become my daily browser since I started using Dolphin with my Nexus One.
With the last update for Chrome and FF09, it's the smoothest browser I've used on Android. However, there are still instances where scrolling is jerky and sometimes scrolling stops working for half a minute. It seems like it only happens when I try to scroll while a page hasn't finished loading, but all of the browsers I've tried seem to have issues with scrolling an incomplete page. Closing and reopening the tab will fix the jerky scrolling.
Chrome also freezes on me forcing me to force stop it through settings -> applications. I cannot reliably reproduce this problem and it is annoying, but the benefits of having access to the open tabs on my computer on my phone outweigh this problem.
I do wish Google would iterate the Chrome beta app as fast as they iterate the desktop version of Chrome beta because I'm assuming they mean for this browser to become to default one on Android and jerky scrolling and freezes is pretty bad.
I absolutely do not know which Chrome people are using that they find "buttery smooth" and "fast". It is a terrible laggy and crappy browser on my end. The last update killed it for me where it only launches to a white screen and just freezes. If and when it does decide to work properly, it's stutters and jib-jabs when scrolling, no flash, just all around terrible. No wonder it's surname is still BETA.
Dolphin browser (mini or HD) puts it to shame, really.
You can also try firefox... It's very smooth, and untill now, I didnt find any problem
I like it but I never use it. No flash is... well, no flash. No plugin support like the rest of em either. you'd think with google being the og devs for android. Could make it all work out.

Adobe Flash Player

I've searched and couldn't find any helpful information regarding Adobe Flash Player working on the GS3. All I read was some have it working and most dont. So I decided to create a thread regarding this.
Me and a friend been searching google for along time and I finally found this youtube video thats 6 days old showing how to get in working.
THIS IS NOT MY WORK!
I tried it out and now i have Flash Player working in the Stock Browser. This is my 1st post so be gentle on me Ladies and Gents. I'm just trying to contribute to the community.

gingerbread wasn't 2.0. eclair was 2.0/2.1. froyo was 2.2; gingerbread was 2.3.
the small steps in versions are because they aren't big enough updates to warrant a big step in numbers. they are just incremental updates.
Flash works on stock browser on S3, make sure your on ICS for official support. For JB, you can search XDA there is a thread on how to make it work. Flash doesn't work on Chrome regardless of ICS or JB.

+1 Adobe ceased all support for android above 4.x, ICS and above... see article here and the list of compatible devices here.
And the video has so many uneeded steps, just download the apk and side load it with any file manager and use the Boat, Firefox or Dolphin browsers. Another work around is Skyfire, but that is outdated and las update was 2011...

Same here, there many sites that I go to to view video that are still in Flash (flv) format and the HTML5 take over will take a few years to get there. Youtube was one of the first adopters of HTML5, but many are still falling behind.
Thanks to this thread I've found the Boat Browser, was using Dolphin a lot more than Chrome. I find Chrome lacking and missing some features, expected a more robust experience. I'm going to keep it for now and see how it evovles over the course of time.
I'm using the xscope browser along with the swf player from Market. It's working pretty good...perhaps it'll work with chrome browser as well. Might wanna give that a shot.

After my longtime fight to get away from Dolphin browser I finally settled on Chrome. I use an app now called 'flashify' in the Play store. Whenever I hit a snag I share the page to Flashify which in turns allows me to carry the link over to another browser. In this case its the 'OCS Browser included in/with JellyBomb ROM.
Really bored one day I decided to track my battery usage and internet connections. I found that Dolphin was a bit of a hog compared to others. Can't get into the swing of Firefox. Used to use Boat but it seemsBoat was just right behind Dolphin Browser is size/data hog. It didn't really slow anything down that I could tell but I just felt Chrome would be... Less of a mem hog/battery/data hog than Dolphin. I could be wrong.... But seems to worm better for me. Just a thought...

Sorry for the typos.. Fat fingers syndrome.
yeah ive noticed that adobe flash is no longer in the market anymore, only reason why i was able to download from the market was because on the first day i got the gs3 i saw it once and download it on stock kernel, when i rooted and flash my rom it desappeared from the market, later found it under apps that i installed from my previous phone up until now from the new google data recovery. Now everytime i flash a new rom i can get it from the market throught the google recovery. forgive my ignorance, but whats so great bout the new HTML5 versus the adobe flash and what new features is it having?

Multiwindow is disabled

Just to let you all know, multiwindow does not work on this build. Yes, I long-pressed the back button multiple times and it doesn't work. Might need to be updated like the international version did before it is functional. Kinda sucks, figured they would have launched it with that.
Can you check screen recording? I know it was removed from the international, but one can hope.

Adobe flash

What's the state of adobe flash support on this device?
Theres supposedly a new version of adobe flash player, including for android, including for "Androud 4 and above"
http://arstechnica.com/security/201...-update-for-attacks-on-windows-mac-users/#p3n
I definitely installed an apk named adobe flash installer ics only days ago after flashing stock rooted MA5, and there is a flash player settings icon in my app drawer, although it just goes to a web page not to a local app, and adobe flash does not appear anywhere in market, not even in "my apps". And when I go to the link "To see what version of Flash your computer is running.", it says "You have version 11,1,115,36 installed."
It shows in Titanium backup too as 11.1.115.36 installed.
Yet when I go to the download page:
http://www.adobe.com/m/flashplayer/android.html
It just says sorry you need flash installed.
According to some of the comments on that Ars article the version numbers are questionable so maybe I somehow already have the latest version or maybe the article got the numbers wrong.
But basically, what is the state of flash on this device? Is it just that the stock browser doesn't support it even if it's installed? Does Chrome or some other browser work?

Chrome does not work with flash, but there are a handful of browsers that do. Personally I use Firefox when I have to do something with flash, but I use Chrome for everything else.
Tip: make sure to enable plugins in the settings of whichever browser you decide to use.
As far as the new version - I don't know anything about it. I'll have to check that out.
The state of Adobe Flash is that it is semi-abandonware. Only fixes from Adobe are critical security fixes, with dev effort halted as of August 2012 (before out N2 was even released)....Flash even working on our note at all is a fluke from Adobe's point of view.
i wouldn't care about this subject at all, except the NHL websites all use f*cking flash for the highlight/fight vids. annoying.

There is a nice thread in the Intneral GN2 on this topic, and the guy posts a direct link for the APK from Adobe.
As the other guy, you need to use a Flash friendly browser. I'm use Boat, since it's a light browser and works. The other two that would work, that I know of are Firefox (mentioned earlier) and Dolphin. If you can get it to work, I found Dolphin, on my Evo4G, worked best with Flash. Firefox worked, but was really so to load. Boat works fine, but I haven't thoroughly tested it.
Overall, I find Flash experience and performance to be site dependent Some sites, works like a charm. Others, well..., they're less than desirable with odd issues that came up such as no picture if you go full screen.

Where do you even have those flash on/off/demand options? My stock browser has no such options. I'm on stock rooted ma5.

use firefox for native flash support in the browser.
I believe dolphin works too. chrome, stock, Maxton, and opera do not support native flash in browser as well if at all.

Here's the link that I use on all androids with 4.0 up. No problems with flash on stock browser after installation.
Download and install with a file manager. Root not necessary.

Settings advanced plugins is already "always on". There is no flash-specific setting anywhere.
Are any of you with working flash in the stock browser on ma5? Maybe the browser in ma5 has all support stripped out?
That download was for 11.1.115.20
It didn't work any better so I think people should install the latest 11.1.115.37 unless we can show that there is some situation where the old version works while the new one does not. It was a security update after all and it was bad enough that they actually updated a product they already said they were never updating again. It is handy to have old versions to refer to sometimes though so thanks for that.

Annnd now it's working. Stock browser in MA5 with flash 11.1.115.37 installed, the adobe flash test page actually works. The Sprint speed test page also works.
I wish we could nail down exactly how to make it work and document it explicitly.
Why didn't it work for me before? Why does it work now?
The only things I did in the last few minutes were: installed dolphin, dolphin beta, firefox, firefox beta, and xscope pro (i had purchased that way back on the og evo but never really used it since then) and tried to load up the test page in everything but xscope, just hadn't got that far yet when I tried the stock browser again just to double check and compare the exact appearance. Possibly one of the other browser installs did something to flash to make it work? Maybe installing that 11.1.115.20 version did something after all even though it was replaced again? I haven't even rebooted.

[Q] any body else having this problem?

When I visit a site, (especially xda) with the new nexus 7 it keeps refreshing constantly, like it'll load the page up but after like 10sec it'll refresh the whole page I think it might be the ads causing it to do it but its just a guess.
I'm Using chrome.
Yup I think its to do with the ads on xda, I just downloaded the app from the play store, solved that issue, but it really needs to be fixed, I made a post about it yesterday, its extremely irrigating

Perfect, It worked! I just tried the XDA 2013 beta 1024, and it works as well. Thank you very much for pointing that out.
