I installed Firefox, Chrome and AdobeFlash in my AFTV. However, my flash videos are not working. Is there any setting that missing?
Really appreciate the help
Thanks

Try again after rebooting with ctrl+alt+delete.
Did you get the latest/last Android flash version from the adobe archives page?
Make sure the plugin setting is not disabled entirely.
After a while,video based actions fail completely for some odd reason until I restart my device.
This problem makes all forms of YouTube,and all SWF and flash player related videos fail to work.
Get an swf player app and an swf file like Ultimate Sonic Flash to test it with if you wish.

This worked for me. Can't get perfectly smooth video unfortunately, but it's still good.
That version does not work in offline swf players (blue lego block).
Get the official version from the adobe archive page by scrolling down to it.

It is made for 4.0 ICS,but it works on Fire TV with 4.2.2 JellyBean.
Thank you all for your reply. I installed Puffin which fulfilled my requirement.

Did any1 get it to work. I got it installed along with amazon account but FC's whenever I play a video.
NM I should of search first

When ROMs add Flash (there is one already) I had been able to watch through the browser with Flash.
Manually install flash from the APK (search for it on xda. Found tons of links for it).
Install Dolphin Browser HD/your choice of browsers that support flash.
For dolphin change it to Desktop instead of Android device and it will let you watch amazon videos. I tested this with my Amazon Prime on-demand free streaming and worked well.

That worked for me too. I even got full screen video by tapping the "pop out" button. Then Dolphin pushed out an update and now I can't watch Flash anymore.
After i installed flash player, i trayed watch movies online on different sites with my mozilla browser and dolphin hd, but flash player seems to working without hwa (on nvidia tegra zone is writen that it should support hwa), so video looks very laggy, maybe someone knows knows the solution ?
Well flash support ended in ice cream sandwich. Adobe never released flash for jelly bean( in fact, they have removed flash from the play store completely)
So its possible that there could have been a change in the libs for the GPU and thus HW acceleration no longer works.
If adobe released the source for flash player for android, which I doubt they will do, then at dev may be able to fix this.
Yes, but im looking for the people who have working hwa, (some gays n other threads feedback that they have flash on n7 without any problems) so i thought that maybe problem is in my configuration or i downloaded the wrong version...

Can we get an example site that your having trouble with to test this on?

Looks like Amazon wasn't supporting Android smartphones. I'm not sure if it's changed. I saw a youtube video on how to make it work but it seems to no longer be effective.
Is anyone able to watch Amazon streaming videos with a standard unrooted etc android device?
I think you can watch them in any browser that supports flash. I believe the stock browser and Dolphin work.
I downloaded Dolphin but it won't run Amazon streaming video. It results in an error code.

I don't think Dolphin supports flash anymore. You can install Boat browser for flash content. You need to install flash separately, and enable it in Boat browser settings. Then you can watch Amazon videos through Boat browser.

Thanks, I downloaded Boat but still no go. Looks like there's no flash support beyond android 4.0.x.

Google Play won't download the flash player for current Android devices. Looks like there's other ways to download flash...
http://www.ghacks.net/2013/07/29/how-to-install-and-use-flash-player-on-your-android-device/
Yes, you have to install it separately and not from Google Play. Search xda, I'm sure you will find a link to the file. It works on Android 4.3, I tried streaming with my N7 and can confirm. Don't worry about the threads saying it won't work, that was an old issue of Amazon doing something to exclude android devices, they no longer do that.
Don't forget to enable flash in boat browser once you install it. It is not enabled by default!

im using stickmount to mount my 1tb hard drive. opening stream and xbmc plays the movie for about 10 mins (tried ninja turtles, frozen, and 22 jump street) and then just returns to the stream / xbmc torrent screen to select another movie. if i select the same movie or a different one, it will load, but then just crash the whole OS (reboot)
any fixes to this? or any alternatives ?
im using SPMC, latest version (kodi wouldnt work with this app)
I've posted a few reports for this in the past, I too would like an alternative for these addons.
As far as I know, both projects are dead.
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/xbmc-torrents-aft-t2814886)
A speculation was made in the last post about a possible reason for the crash.
There is a new fork called Pulsar, no Android version available yet but I think they are working on it...
Ahh Thank you. It's a shame. This add-on works perfect on pc

Indeed, one of my most awaited
Confirmed working on Shield TV 2.1 upgrade. Here is how to get the browser...
Edit: Mistake in thread title,you need the Kitkat Modded Flash Player plugin apk as well,sorry.
1. Copy the comname from playstore,which is... mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser
2. Go to Wandoujia (other places get apk files with parsing errrors) and search for any app and visit its page.
3. Replace that app's comname with the name in step 1 and visit the page.
4. Click or right click and "save as" on the apk word under the QR code,or if on a browser on Android,long press the word and save/download to get the apk file.
5. On your Shield TV,enable installing apps from unknown sources if not done already.
6. Transfer the file to your shield with any USB storage or Micro SD and install the apk from within ES File Explorer via longpress and hitting install.
7.Install it as you would any other directly sideloaded app when the prompt appears.
Notes: If you try to use the apk downloaders or a few other sites,the resulting apk will have a parsing error,Wandoujia is the one site where that does not occur with the apk.
If you have Opera browser sideloaded to Shield TV,it will be very easy to use for directly getting the apk from Wandoujia using the long press on the apk word under the QR code,as it has a far superior downloads engine where you can choose the name and location for the file being downloaded,just like a computer lets you do!
And don't worry,the installed app will not be in chinese for those of you with English and other languages.
First,the instructions... Go into the browser's settings and simply enable the "flash mode" feature and it works PERFECTLY.
If you download swf files,you can play them locally on Dolphin Browser using ES File Explorer and long pressing the swf file then "open as" other and selecting Dolphin Browser to play it.
Also,a Logitech K400r keyboard works flawlessly on Shield TV.
Enjoy!
Edit 2: A link to the Kitkat Flash Player mod.

NEW! Edit: I got the latest update 11.5.4 as a download from apk20 and it actually installs!!!
It fixes Dolphin Jetpack rendering glitches for me and also improves flash player performance along with fixing parts of it.

A few details.
It only works when Jetpack is enabled,and also,the flash game mode fixes interactions with dragging stuff and fixes the doubled clicks bug,but it appears to be causing visual glitches on the browser itself.
I think Dolphin Browser needs a special optimized version for Shield TV.
It works but it's far from perfect, tried watching some video and crunchyroll and it was pretty bad, screen no video and almost impossible to navigate.
Yeah,I noticed some touch point issues when in a different zoom size,clicking on a link doesn't work right in other zoom sizes because it thinks I am clicking at a different spot than I am actually clicking at.
Jetpack is the problem,it is really buggy unfortunately.
If only flash could work without Jetpack enabled and on all other capable browsers like FireFox,lousy changes from Kitkat and Lollipop.
Flashplayer on android
Have you tried puffin browser from the playstore for flash support?
That one has crappy frame drops and I feel a bit skeptic about using it from the cloud based flash service.
Besides,the controls on a keyboard like K400r are idiotically broken in Puffin if you have tried playing Happy Wheels.
try opera for tablets, make sure user agent is set to desktop
didn't work for me I don''t know why ??
Updated with a link to a fixed build on apk20 installing successfully!
Enjoy!
Dolphin Video works great for playing swf files offline without tricks unlike their browser!
Besides needing a keyboard/mouse,the only issue I see is only that the UI favors Portrait mode annoyingly (mouse glitches around,but still usable and videos go to landscape),but using a forced screen orientation app can alleviate that annoyance,apart from bad thumbnail sizes of online videos.
At least it doesn't need a special copy from a certain site,simply using one of those apk downloaders is all you need to do.
All I did was type in "Dolphin Video" in one's search box and got it that way.
One thing to note,apk-dl is broken and endlessly redirects to itself instead of actually downloading it,so a place like apkpure is great for getting it easily.
