You can only use flash player with the stock browser, check the settings in the browser and make sure flash player is set to always on.
I can't find setting on my stock browser

Open stock browser, select settings, select advance, select enable plugins, select always on. And you are done.

Yes you have, just scroll down.

I spent 1 day searching the setting in stock browser. I didn't scroll down because I tought that setting tab would have been on screen due to large screen size. Thanks a lot.
You can also use opera browser. Iy has flash support as well and it a pretty decent browser.

HOW THE HELL CAN I GET THE TO WORK?! ha ha, I'm not freaking out but it's kind of annoying. I've install the APK but nothing has changed. Maybe I'm missing a step or setting.

Yup, if anyone wants to use flash with Dolphin, you'll have to find an older Dolphin HD app...but that typically crashes when you try to rotate the video...xscope works great with flash though.
I dont find the need of using flash with dolphin. Its the only browser that lets me see most videos online, in websites like gorillavid, putlicker and other. Dont know if it is because of the html5 support but it sure gives a nice performance. I used to watch the wire in dolphin at night

For those of you who go to the trouble of installing an old version of Dolphin- beware. Mine use to update itself to the new version all by itself. Even with updates disabled!
not working with opera mobile
works only with stock browser
I have the apk installed. To see flash content I use Firefox beta. Works very well. Only crashed once while watching a video.

I could see any flash streams BEFORE the update with the default browser, but after the update, it looks like the Stock browser does not work with Flash anymore.
I can watch the streams with Dolphin Browser, but not with the default one.
Anyone knows a work-around to be able to see the Flash content in the Default browser?

Just use this along with flashify, which will allow you to open links that have flash running in them in your stock browser. Works well for me for the few times I need to see a flash derived page.
I've been using Dolphin Beta with the flash player, cause I think the newest Beta has some form of the Jetpack.
I use this to enable flash. Not so sure about the add-ons though.
At the very least, it's pretty fast, and it doesn't sacrifice flash.
Use "Puffin Web Browser" for Flash - Best I've experienced so far...overall....stable.
Well what do we do now.... I tried all the flash apk's that I have none of them work not even with Puffin Browser....

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.

install NHL GameCenter and FakeGPS. it's a winning combo. I suggest being one with the Chinese.
I assume you should be fine with that using a US NHL subscription. I have an international one
Here is the setup working. I'm just doing the HDMI out to my HDTV

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.

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.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w2s6vcaa8ks14ut/install_flash_player_ics.apk
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.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
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.

Go to Adobe's standalone APK installer site to get an updated version of flash. Just scroll down to "Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives" and install that, restart phone and you're good to go

I can confirm that flash in Boat Browser, and Boat Browser Mini, does work. I had some crashes in Boat Browser before I tried mini, and mini has been running smooth.

I find that many websites don't load the flash video correctly and displays a black screen. What I do is open another tab and type in settings.adobe.com/flashplayer/mobile/
then when I go back it shows the video play button. Normally you do it once, but it doesn't save the settings. I love firefox but man boat browser has a killer bookmark manager and speed dial.
I haven't had any issues using flash in boat browser.
maybe its different if you bough the gs4

Use the original hosts file and use Firefox with ad block edge add on. Perfect experience for flash.

All android pretty much allows you to choose your default browser shortly after installing a second browser. In my case, I have the stock browser, and I have Next Browser (which IMHO is the best in the business right now). After installing Next Browser, when I try to open a website from another app (lets say from tapatalk when perusing the forums), it will ask me which app to use to open the webpage. Select Always, then click on the browser you want to use for this.
If you have no use for the stock browser, use titanium backup, select backup and restore, long press on the Browser app, then select uninstall. It will ask you twice if you really want to do it. I've never had any issue with uninstalling it, so give it a shot.
Good Luck

If you want to use both, go into settings, apps, then select the browser app, clear data and that should grey out the "clear defaults" button as well. If it doesn't, then tap "clear defaults" as well. This should reset which browser is default for you. Then you can set the default browser the next time you open a webpage from an app. You can also use two different browsers if you want one to be a "default" (a.k.a. your browser of choice, mine being the Next Browser) and keeping the stock Web Browser for whatever you decide (personally, I don't like it at all.)
