bleachereport.com problem - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

this is one of my favorite sites. no matter which browser I use no links will load. only the homepage. can somebody else test it for me? tried desktop, android settings etc.

Why not use the app?
But I just sent to the site and it works fine for me. Clicked on multiple stories and they all worked fine.
Stock rooted using chrome browser.

Cannot open mediafire on GN

I've been downloading files normally from mediafire with no problems. Since yesterday, whenever I open a link to mediafire, Chrome says that there was an error accessing the server, and the stock browser just doesn't load.
I tried immediately after with a laptop, and everything was fine with MF.
Any ideas to what might be causing this?
Thanks

With the stock browser. Hit the menu button in the action bar and select load desktop site. That works for me.

Flash Player APK (UPDATED)

Adobe has stopped allowing downloads for Flash Player on all devices running Jelly Bean, including the Nexus 7. This APK has been tested and works great on the Nexus 7 so far with 4.2.1.
APK File: install_flash_player_ics (1).apk - 4.49 MB
Awesome. Thanks.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
couple questions...
1. so will this allow flash to be used on chrome?
1a. if it doesnt work with chrome, what's the benefit of a standalone apk versus getting a browser that can use flash?
2. do you have to be rooted for this to work?
thanks!

1. No, chrome does not support flash.
2. You need the flash apk to be able to use flash in a browser that supports flash I.e. dolphin browser
3. No, you do not. Just make sure you go to setting, security, and click the unknown sources check box before you try to install the app.

Can't open file after download

You can't download it straight to your tablet. You have to extract it on a computer then transfer it to your Nexus.

Theres no default file browser installed so get something like Astro:
These are the instructions I followed, can't remember if I used the APK linked on that site or not, so to be safe use the one linked above.
PS : This five minute spam rule is annoying. (but can see why its here).
i installed the flash apk but when i try to view a flash movie it crashes the browser (opera mini, maxthon, and dolphin hd)
thanks works awesome on my nexus 7 and on my galaxy nexus
top notch
This worked great! Thank you

Thanks for the apk. You can download it straight to your tablet if it was not gziped and just install it with a file manager... On another note, I didn't really see the point of putting it back on my tablet after downloading it to my PC since I already had the sdk installed.
Code:
adb install -r com.adobe.flashplayer-3f0d57a34bf0204acb2f9b310aa37ac7.apk
did the trick and installed it just fine for me..
Worked like it should!

Thanks, OP!
Now if we could get a working AOSP Browser for the N7 because I'm not too fond of Dolphin and the other 3rd party browsers.
Cheers,
Kermee
If you are using Dolphin as a Flash solution Do Not update to 8.6 which just came out. It completely removes the ability to use Flash for Jelly Bean even if you have it side loaded. It gives a message that they will no longer be supporting it for Android 4.1+

I find that opera mobile crashes alot with flashplayer installed. ive installed various versions said to work with jellybean. ill keep trying it out or try Firefox or something.

[Q] Boat Browser flash crash on galaxy s4?

It seems that I cannot get flash to work on the boat browser. Any fix available? It works fine on firefox.

Adobe stopped supporting the Android platform. That might have something to do with it.

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
Tried it doesnt work.
It crashed, and exits by it self after freezing.

Same here
I have installed last updated flash player.
and when i use flash content on Boat browser it crashed.
any fix possible ?
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 followed the process in this videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_md3foVM58&feature=youtube_gdata_player.

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

Gogoanime rocks!!
And from your video it appears you are using a hosts file to block ads?
Use the original hosts file and use Firefox with ad block edge add on. Perfect experience for flash.

Its an app that alters your host files to block adds in other apps and in the browser. Requires root. Have been using for years.

Not much difference, but for me Adfree keeps the host files better on reboots.

By using this, does it makes the ads completely gone or leaves a blank page where the ads were? I've never tried any

Give me a link and I'll take a screen. I don't know which pages have prominent ads as I've been blocking them for years.
On a side note I do have to edit the hosts file occasionally to allow certain sites, as taptu and feedly won't redirect correctly for some of my feeds if they are blocked.
Edit I'll add a few sites. Obviously the ads are blocked in apps too which is the main benefit I find.
Thanks so much for this app !
Thank you. After flash new ROM, I tried to restore my backup from adfree and after install it says that my version is too old. Then I found this thread. Thanks.

Perfect Ad Block app
Hi,
Thanx. it's a great app.

Browsers not displaying content.

I Ann running AOKP but this has always been an issue. What setting do I have to change to get content to display on my browsers? So the screen shots site what a lot of sites look like. It's not all sites but it's some. This one is joann . com / coupon. I was in this site with my wife today and tried to use a coupon. Her stock nexus 4 running 4.3 displays everything just fine. I tried dolphin, which is my default, stock browser, and chrome. They ask display like this. I know it must be a setting but I don't know which one.
My wife is now giving my crap because my "fancy phone that I just can't leave alone isn't working right" and she "just knew I would break something“.
