Not sure if I am doing something wrong on this phone. I downloaded flash player and installed it, as I did for my GIII. Flash works great. On this phone even after installing and restarting flash videos will not play.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Flash is discontinued and deprecated for the most part. You may need to get the community supported version that's available on xda here somewhere with a browser like Dolphin Browser. Other than that, there are limited options.
here, just dl and install this. use a browser with flash support; Firefox, Dolphin, Boat, most browsers support Flash, Chrome does not.

The flash player linked in here did it... now flash is working!
Thanks!
I installed it, but then it just takes me to a blank page, it seems like it's installed but not enabled. I'm on Android 4.4.4 using the latest Firefox browser, same problem with dolphin browser. it takes me to this : https://settings.adobe.com/flashplayer/mobile/ and it's blank. Any help would be appreciated.

because you posted it the wrong section...
Hmm seems like if its not working it will take development to fix it. Seems like the perfect place but thanks for your input.

I've been searching this one for a while and here is what i've gathered...
you must be deoxed (which skyraider is) and obviously you you need 2.2 and flash 10.1, the Nexus one can do it
Whambam I've got it! You don't need to be deoxed and all that jazz. To use the hulu app you will need the modified version of flash. But to watch on the browser you can use the newest version of flash.
Step 1. Open the browser app
Step 2. Clear the url and type "about:debug" then press go (if you did it right nothing will happen)
Step 3. Press menu>more>settings
Step 4. Scroll down UAString then select" desktop"
Tada!!!!

Wisenick,
Doesn't work. I tried that change and went to hulu.com and tried to watch a video and the embedded player on the site says that the browser is not supported.
I'm running the stock 2.2 os (4 day old Incredible and no root).

try using these apps
If your still having issues running Hulu on Skyraider, run the 3.1 patch. If you ran it, do it again. Fixed it for me...
I am running stock 2.2 as well with no root. I downloaded that Hulu pack, tried to watch a TV episode and it said platform not supported. I then tried to install that modified Flash install file and it said that it would not install. I am currently running 10.1.95.2.
Ok so, I can't get flash player to work. I've tried multiple apk's with not success. Heres a list of browser is I used.
Opera: Just fc's when I tap the play button to load the flash content.
Dolphin(with flash support) Fc's when I tap to load flash content
Xscope: iOS-like blue lego
Firefox: fc's like dolphin
I can't get the AOSP Browser to run
and chrome(obviously) has no flash support.
Im running stock.
Any suggestions?

JellyBean does not support flash but there was a thread regarding this issue if you could dig that out that has the instructions and flash player attached too.

There's a tutorial on beginnerstech.co.uk that gets it working on rooted devices

Works fine on mine. Worked on Firefox, but I'm using Boat now, works on it too. No root. I just side loaded the apk from another thread.
I tried sideloading didn't work but I followed that tut and it did.

It works.
1) Get flash apk. Sideload it (does not require root).
2) Get a browser that supports flash. Can you stock if you root and install in system/app. Could also use another browser. The ones I've heard work are Firefox Aurora (with the Phony add-on) and XScope. Opera Mobile and Mini don't seem to work (from what I heard), not does the regular Firefox.
Cool iv got flash sorted using the root method stock browser so much better

@ OP, it all depends on what version of the flash player apk you're using. The link that ace7196 is the one you need and it works for me.
Ok, thanks guys, I'll be sure to try it out
Okay so I've managed to some how mess up flash on this device. I originally installed flash 11 to work with dophin. I then proceeded to be unahappy with how flawlessly this was working and tried to get it to work with an older version of opera. I found some guy saying that he had used opera 11.00.1 with a different version of flash. I then uninstalled the flash that I had and downloaded this new one. It went fine though sadly opera still would not get flash and after some searching I found that opera was always fairly glitchy with flash and decided to go back to dolphin browser. Upon trying to use dolphin though I was unable to to use flash(it said it there was no flash installed), so i uninstalled the older version of flash I had installed to try and use Opera mobile. I then tried to reinstall the flash 11.1 which i was using with dolphin originally, but I got this error.
Firstly, it says The app you're installing will replace another app. All your previous user data will be saved. Then I click okay and I click install.
it then says App not installed, an existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed.
I have read a few thread about this error, but none of them seem to apply to mine. I don't believe that I am trying to do something that I need root permissions for, and I have uninstalled the old version of flash. I even got root manager just to look in my systems/app folder and there is no flash in there, so I have no idea what to do.
Thanks for looking, Eric
Have you changed your user agent to iPhone in the settings on dolphin beta? I have not found flash very important since I did it.

Unfortunately I had to use the LG flash tools to restore my phone and the only problem I have right now is using the Dolphin Browser I can enable the flash but when I click on the video to play it won't let me play it, I had a working perfectly fine before does anyone know how to get it working properly? I honestly can't remember how I got it working last time, I do have the latest version of Flash Player for Android installed from Adobes website, I even tried deleting that preference file in the dolphin files.

I'm sure I have over looked something but after updating to kitkat I can no longer download any files though any browser, have tried chrome stock and dolphin which all worked before the update. I have an outlook Web account for work so need to use the browser to access and download attachments. Any help welcomed. Thanks

There is no special procedure for enabling download in kitkat. It works just fine.
1) Make sure your internet access is good. Check download with another PC/tablet/phone.
2) Check if you can install apps from google play store
3) You may need to do a factory reset or reinstall kitkat firmware.
Thanks for the reply, there is no issue with Internet connection or downloading apps, this is purely a browser issue I think. I remember having this issue before on honeycomb I think but was able to fix with es file explorer as it had an option to enable downloads. I also have a note 2 on kitkat which works fine.

Still no joy with the downloads and now my Samsung account wont sync, anyone any ideas. Thanks
Sent from my SM-P605 using Tapatalk
maybe because you are not rooted and try to write to sdcard ?
Thanks for the reply, not rooted but root not needed to download attachments from email client on browser. Does not explain the Samsung account failing to sync?
