I have flash working perfectly on mine. I just downloaded the apk to my computer then transferred it over to my Nexus via dropbox (you can use something similar).

Phony addon? Just tried it. Set to use desktop firefox, still don't work. Plugins are enabled. Requested desktop mode. Nada.

Update.
For some reason it started to work properly with phony in default user agent and Firefox not requesting desktop page.

Dolphin Browser HD 8.5.1 APK (Supports Flash)

Since Dolphin Browser HD recently dropped support for Flash on all Jelly Bean devices, including the Nexus 7, people have been needing the old version of Dolphin Browser HD for use with Flash. Well, here you are.
APK Download: http://dl.apktops.com/app/201206/Dolphin_Browser_HD_8.5.1.apk
If you need Flash Player, check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771463
Thanks
Thanks OP, very kind of you!
*Edit - Although Flash seems to work fine, when trying to go full screen it crashes out immediately. Currently Firefox does not have this problem.
This is great. I miss the pinch to zoom and the more functional address bar though. Not a poblem.
Anyway to tell the Play Store not to update it?

As of right now, no. I guess that's the price to pay to have Flash working on it though.
Maybe if everyone keeps giving it 1 star for disabling Flash, Dolphin will get the message and add it back.

Thanked
Did this yesterday and it's been smoooooth sailing so far. I'm new to Android and this made things a ton easier. :good:
I wonder if there is a way to change the apk or program to make it think your are running ICS so it still enables flash, besides editing the build.prop. From the Google Play update log it sounds like its merely disabling flash on JB while still allowing it to work on ICS/GB, so the flash supporting part of Dolphin is still there, its just being disabled.
I've been using XScope Browser.
Seems like Flash support is a little bit better on that one, but I haven't tested it extensively. Amazon Instant Video can be played full-screen, which is nice. I tried that with Dolphin, but it kept crashing.

[Q] Adobe flash double clicking

Hi everyone. I bought google nexus 7 today and manually installed flash. I know that google chrome on android 4.1 do not support flash, so i installed dolphin browser. So here is a problem, when i view flash content and tap on a screen, for example, a checkbox on a flash website it checks and unchecks. That means that browser does a double click. I tried to install any other browser. Opera doesnt show flash content, mozilla does but VERY low quality. I tried a lot of non popular browsers. Only one works fine, mozilla firefox beta. I tried to install any versions of adobe flash player. Nothing changes. So here is the question, am i the only one with double clicking flash content? How to disable double tapping? Thanks.
It's in dolphin setting. Click on setting then Web content. Then flash player always on. So you don't have to click every time it wants to load flash.
Or download the stock browser.
Happy hacking

The problem is that browser makes a double click, when i make a single click.
Good luck I've been looking for flash that worked worth the hell since I bought my nexus, had I known it was anti flash like crapple products I would not have got it.

Try boat browser it works good for me with flash.

Can't blame Google for Adobe abandoning it's users.
As for flash, doesn't Dolphin browser disable flash by default on JB devices and make it impossible to turn back on? If so you may need to download the old stock browser on the market.
I've found that doing more of a long press eliminates the double press problem.

try the stock android browser (quick ics browser in playstore). i have cm10/paranoidrom and flash works like a charm in stock browser.
same here, i pulled apk from my gnex n put it in /system/app of n7, set permisiions, n boom!!! works pretty good.
I use "Dolphin Browser Beta" and it works like a charm. The videos are all pixelated like in Firefox.

Best secondary browser?

This is the browser and flash version 11.1 11.1.115.27 that I use,
in browser settings tick java script and set plugins to on demand, I get an occasional force close but can watch flash content
EDIT latest version of flash can be downloaded from the official site,just scroll down to Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives and download
Glad it worked
Works great now, thanks!

I use Boat Browser. It works pretty good for flash. Never have a problem at all with it. I've on ocassion had problem with stock AOSP suddenly closing out on me before. Firefox works not too bad too. but my favorite seems to be boat when it comes to flash integration.
I suggest the stock browser. Another I can try is Dolphin, I prefer it respect to Firefox.

Well, with my modded browser, Dolphin creators were able to see that flash works just fine on the android 4.1 plus platform. So now they updated their browser to v10 and version 10 and higher now support flash without the need to mod it.

If using a Samsung Touchwiz Jellybean 4.2.2 based rom why not use Firefox as
a browser, it plays all the adobe flash videos just fine.
I have installed the adobe flash player for android in my phone but I noticed that
even without it, the firefox browser plays any of the flash videos I tested so far.

Anyone get Amazon Video? Mine force quits when clicking a video

So I followed the Nook instructions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352905&page=6
All but AccountAndSyncSettings.apk installed fine( this one errors)
anyway, I'm able to now view my library but when i click a video to view or play it then it just says "Unfortunately, Amazon Video has stopped"
Has anyone gotten the APK to work on the new (or old) Nexus 7?
I use Mozilla Firefox and a add on "phony" and set the add on to desktop. Amazon video works great then.

Any updates to this? has anyone gotten it to work at all?
Sadly this is a core feature I need and will have to return my Nexus 7
is it possible for someone to make a custom ROM in the future that has this capability?
