Stock Android browser?

Is there a way to get the stock browser installed?
I tried installing the apk for the 2.3.1 version but it didn't work...

Try Dolphin Browser HD. It really doesn't get any better. The apk is inside the zip file in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351283
It's called something like tunny browser btw.

Flash on Dolphin Browser for JB ROMS!

In order to enable flash player in dolphin browser you need to navigate to data/data/mobi.mgeek.Tunny/Browser/shared_prefs/ using root explorer and delete mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml.
I'm not the one who discover it. Just wanted to share to those who wants to enable flash on dolphin browser which can be downloaded on play store.

Yes, it works, Dolphin will update.

I'm using Dolphin Browser Beta on rom:I9300XXDLIB 4.1.1. and have no folder ''mobi.mgeek.Tunny" in data/data/.
Or do i not need to delete that file in Beta to enable flash player?

Use the non beta dolphine browser that can be downloaded on the play store. You need to open the browser first and go to any site before you delete the preference stated above. You must enable the root feature in root explorer

You can get this working on Dolphin Beta at least on TF101

instead go to /data/data/com.dolphin.browser.lab.en/shared_prefs/
and delete the file that ends with "Browser_preferences.xml"
Hope this helps!

So i followed the steps exactly as posted and seemed to work for me. I now have flash player "always on"
However when i load you tube in desktop mode and other sites, i still get the flash player needs to be installed error.
Any suggestions?
Cheers

Here is what I did:
- Install CleanRom 2.7 (pick option to install Flash within Aroma). There is a way to download the flash installer separate if don't want to install cleanrom but you will have to search the forums. I am using Cleanrom with Nova launcher and love it.
- Install latest Dolphin Browser from market
- Open Dolphin and visit any site
- Close Dolphin
- Use any file explorer (with root access) to goto data/data/mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser/shared_prefs/ and delete mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml.
- I rebooted but not sure if that is needed
- Now flash will work within the latest Dolphin Browser.
Hope this helps.

confirmed working on Galaxy Note II with flash player 11_11.1.115.20 apk and Flash is how I like it " On demand " as default .

After deleting that file you may need to reinstall flash player, I had to before it'd work.

Dolphin and Flash on my un-rooted S3
I somehow got Flash working with Dolphin on my UN-rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 after the JB upgrade from Verizon. It now has Flash permanently enabled. And it has stayed that way even after a couple of Dolphin updates from the Playstore. I'm not quite sure how I accomplished this. It was dumb luck.
I think the setting got changed somehow when I one by one downloaded several of the better rated incognito private browsers from the Play Store and tried them out to find the one I liked. In each of them I set the User Agent to desktop and enabled Flash. I then uninstalled them all except Frost Lite which I decided was the best.
At some point later, I noticed that Flash had started working in Dolphin. I suspect that one of these browsers shares the same tuny settings file as Dolphin and had the ability to either write to it or delete it. But I am not certain. I don't remember exactly all of the browsers I downloaded. For certain I downloaded "Free Private Browser", "InBrowser - Incognito Browsing", and "Frost Lite". I might have tried a couple of others. I suspect it might have been "Free Private Browser" that did the trick because it says in the app description it uses builtin Webkit rendering engine. But I have no way to repeat the experiment.
All I know for certain is that Flash now works in Dolphin on my un-rooted S3 .

Thanks for the info, and I will try it soon

That's not the true way, this is resetting preferences.

http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html direct download 11.1.115.63

Can someone help me fully understand. I thought adobe discontinued flash for android 4.0+. Cause of HTML 5 I thought. Anyways why are they still putting out updates. And not. Letting mobile devices use stock? I hate chrome doesn't support flash.

What is the use of flash player??? Please tell me i don't know anything about it.

does my GN2 have to be rooted to download this?
i thought flash player was not supported on GN2?
if this really works then it would be great because then i can download live streaming apps that require flash player

No you dont have to be rooted. Just download and install as a normal app. Just make sure you have unknown sources checked

Thanks, now I can watch my Amazon prime videos on my phone.

Where the heck is the download on the pages posted? Can someone post a better link like DB or something else?
Edit: I'm asking because I thought we would need JB version not ICS.

Archived Flash Players

Whenever I need to download Flash player on a device, I just google "Archived flash player". One of the first links will be Adobe's website. If you scroll down past the versions for windows computer there will be android devices. Look for the latest version of flash player for your version of Android (i.e. 2.1, 4.0)

The latest version of flash is 11.1.115.81

kitkat flash browsers are limited still?

Any browsers other then dolphin able to use flash in katkat with the update? Some one check boat browser yet? One of main reasons i dont want to upgrade to kitkat because flash browsers are limited under it.

UC browser hd has kitkat flash and is pretty good.

How? Can't get it to work

Firefox supports flash on kitkat too

The two best browsers are working : UC Browser and Dolphin. Boat browser is not working anymore, no big deal, it's more or less the same as Dolphin

You still need a modified version of the flash player. Google for kitkat flash and you should find something.

Here is the flash file you'll need.
> Install
Then install Dolphin Browser from the Play Store
> Change settings Web Content to Flash Player Always On, and under Customize User Agent to Desktop
Reboot...
If you have Amazon Prime you can now use it to watch movies since those jerks don't want to help android users.
