[Q] Flash 10.1

Hey guys I'm on 2.2 and it comes with 10.1 already part of the phone I thought, but I was browsing the market and i saw adobe flash player 10.1 available for download but i thought i already have it installed...? What's this for, is it an app to play flash outside the browser? If so what version of flash Is HTC flash player using...? Should I download this or is HTC flash player the same thing?

its just an update to the flash player you already got

It is just a newer version with security updates. You should check under settings, apps, manage apps which version is installed on your phone. If you got enough space, just grab the new one... greets
Edit: Ähem, seconds too late...

I just tested it in Gizmodo.com find some page with videos if youtube click 240p if you have slow connection click youtube logo to watch in youtube app. works fine

After installing this app and rebooted my phone the wifi stopped working, and i am using this app with the Custom kernel for sense WS ROMS, dont know if it is from the kernel or from the app.
I installed the kernel normaly without wipping anything just flashed the zip and them reboot throught the recovery menu, afhter the phone booted i shut it down athe i turn it on again, and everything was working fine even the wifi, only afther the instalation of this app and rebooted the phone the wifi stoped working.
Any clues???
I can always restore the backup i made before i flashed the kernel but i would really like to have the adobe flash working on my wildfire s.

first I installed the app then the kernel. everything is working fine here. if you want to go back to default kernel just download the stock from the kernel page. might be your router try to reboot it.

I guess you gave your own answer... you've got a WF instead of a WFS... unless you did a typo?

Fash Player 10.2 for ARMv6
No Typo,
One of the Links stated that HTC Wildfire was a Supported Mobile Phone?

Installed fine, however in Opera Mobile doesn't seems to be working really properly (eg. when starting a video, it will not start it). Didn't try Dolphin yet (was even slow on Galaxy,can't imagine on poor Wildfire S...)
*update* in Doplhin only flash banner works, video not
in Opera - seems it's not working at all
*update2* I think it does not recognize new plugin. Maybe ROOT is required?

It doesn't work on my stock rom. I've seen several posts stating that you need a custom rom to use this modded flash.

If i just click on install, the flash player installs. After a reboot, the FlashPlayer works.
How do i know if that FlashPlayer works? Youtube worked before the installation.

It's probably loading the mobile version if you don't have your user agent edited. Just try megavideo.com, or something with full flash and not mobile optimized.

No, it does not work. Later I will run another try.

I try it this way:
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
DOWNLOAD THE APP BELOW AND SAVE IT TO YOUR SD CARD
NOW MAKE SURE YOU HAVE 'UNKNOWN SOURCES' ENABLED IN YOUR SETTINGS > APPLICATIONS
NOW OPEN ANY FILE MANGER LIKE ASTRO AND NAVIGATE TO THE APK FILE WHEREVER YOU STORED IT
JUST OPEN THE FILE AND CLICK INSTALL
NOW REBOOT THE PHONES ONCE INSTALLATION COMPLETE

It works with the CM7.1 port and kernel by alquez.

Perhaps Jikantaru can build a new JikantaruROM Euro version including the FLASH PLAYER 10.2 FOR ARMv6 AND ARMv7 ANDROID PHONES.

You'll see if it works, when you visit xda portal and youtube window can play in browser. Go watch Sassibob or caplat.

Sassibob or Caplat work without any problems on youtube mobile.
But if i try megavideo.com then it jerks; image and sound are async.

Yeah, especially if you have the large player loading, if you click small player in the bottom left hand side, it'll run a lot smoother.. at least you have full flash working though. The megavideo player does use a lot of resources now since they changed it, it used to run a lot faster.
Hopefully someone will post Flash 11 for armv6 devices soon, and hopefully there are some major improvements.

Can someone write me any positive aspect of having flash in smartphones?

Flash is for playing videos on your browser without having another app to play it ex: youtube app, also it is needed in some websites to show flash images, etc.

I think Pudel89 post that's ironic.

The problem is that Google Chrome (but not Chromium, the basis, and almost an exact replica of Chrome) comes with it's own Flash plugin. I don't know if that stops it from using other plugins, but im guessing so, unless you edit the plugin path.
You can also check this tutorial How to install flash on android devices, you woud find latest .apk version there

Try Firefox...it works great with Flash

[Q] Flash on Android 4.4 kitkat

Hi,
This might not be specific to N7 2013
but after kitkat update flash player sems to be broken, I am unable to see in browser flash video.
I am using Flash player v 11.1.115.69 and latest version of firefox beta.
Is anyone else facing the same issue, any workarounds ?

I think it doesn't work because of 4.4. I can't get it to work on my N5 and others from N5 forum can't also. I think I'll keep my N7 at 4.3 until there's a work around.

I have the same issue. I've tried using different browsers (Dolphin, Boat, and Firefox) but no luck. From what I've read in the N5 forum, they are having the same issue, so it looks like it could be due to Kitkat.

very frustating indeed

Man... Argggggghhhh...... Google changed the web engine to Chromium. This is device wide & unless someone builds a custom app (browser) that uses the older AOSP web engine (& that is packaged with it), device side rendering is impossible. Server side rendering only for now, PERIOD.

Hmm. What's so special about Puffin? There's half a dozen of browsers claiming Flash support, but only Puffin works in 4.4.

puffin has integrated flash u don't need to install Flash separately

Puffin is a cloud browser. It uses server-side rendering and streams it to your phone. In this method, the quality is quite poor due to low frame rates and artifacts in the video. I have Puffin paid version.

ok, so then in whose hands is the destiny of Flash under KitKat 4.4? Is it Google/custom ROM developers? Adobe?

You can uninstall Flash you know. Puffin is server-side rendering, which is why it is not true HD on videos. As I mentioned above, unless an updated webkit is developed, there will be no device-side rendering due to the Chromium webkit.

Are there any good HTML 5 websites that you guys know for live TV and sports streaming? No flash is a big bummer!

u can install Adobe Flash Player 11.1 but it won't run i Firefox and Chrome don't support it so i dunno which bowser u wanna use.
Link for Flash Player: Adobe_Flash_Player_11.1.apk
EDIT:
Flash works with the "Dolpin browser" on KitKat but it's just laggy as hell, it wasn't in Firefox with Jelly Bean
so i hope there will come a fix for Firefox so flash will work under Kitty Kat.

Probably better to use the actual Adobe site for getting the flash apk - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
The last one (ever) is 11.1.115.81 - http://download.macromedia.com/pub...oid/11.1.115.81/install_flash_player_ics.apk
Edit: corrected version.

Yeah, my bad; reading & typing on the move. That's actually what I've got installed. I'll update my post.

Has anyone tried the latest version of flash on Kit Kat? Any of the browser would allow flash to run on Kit Kat? I rally want to make sure I'm able to run flash before updating my nexus 7 to Kit Kat, because I'm mainly using the tablet for class and there's lecture videos that comes only in flash version. If I can't run flash, I'm not updating..

No, so far no browser running on Kit Kat can run the flash player plugin.

Unable to run Flash

Hi,
I followed instructions on how to download (from Adobe archive Flash Player for Android) and install Flash Player.
With FireFox for Android (latest ver.) I am able to see websites with Flash but I have an Encoding issue (I assume).
Anytime I see anything and when I run Adobe Flash setup I get squares.
Here is an example.
PS: I tried several ver. of Flash obviously for Android 4.0
With Stock Browser I am unable to seg Flash to work and was unable to find in Settings where to enable it.
Please advise...
Thanks

Same here

I am using Dolphin Browser, where you can enable flash in settings and it works for me.

I do not use Dolphin Browser. How to solve the problem?
I have already posted a tread on FireFox Forum but did not receive any reply yet.
What should I do in order to let FireFox developer team know about this issue?
I do not know if this comes from the Smartphone, from Android or from FireFox.
Thank you

If you try Dolphin and it works, then it's definitely not your smartphones / android fault
I don't know how to contact firefox mobile support, you have to google it for yourself.
