[Q] Flash Player For Android OS, v2.3 [HTC Explorer & Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830] - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need a Flash Player to watch flash videos on HTC Explorer and Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830.
Which is the best ? Or should I install a browser ?

Both ARMv6 devices so don't expect much to work. There are unofficial flash apks out there for ARMv6 but performance isn't that good. If you want decent flash player you'll need an ARMv7 device.

In this thread it shows HTC Explorer is an ARMv7 device.

Oh, you're right, I saw that it had a MSM7225A SOC and thought it was ARMv6, but the SOCs with the A are actually ARMv7. You can try the Android 2.x flash apk from the site in my signature. For a browser you can use the default one that came with your device or a 3rd party one like Dolphin Browser, etc.

I installed Dolphin Browser & SWF Player - Flash ®FileViewer on both the phones.
On Galaxy Ace, the site worked using the Dolphin browser and SWF Player seperately, but the images are moving in frames i.e still images moving after 5-10 seconds. On Explorer, the site didn't load anything at all using both seperately.
I don't know, why !

Skyfire??works ok fr me

I try to keep it updated all the time, right now the latest version is up. You can always go to the direct Adobe link at the bottom and see. But newer releases are all just security fixes that aren't adding any new features, they will never make anything past version 11.1.x.

[POLL]Flash Player available for Galaxy Ace - more info inside

Hi, at Uplinq conference Qualcomm announced that they worked very closesly with Adobe to make the Flash player available for mass market devices and get this, they said that our 800Mhz msm7227 is first mass market SoC that will support it!
Here you have official press release.
With proper hardware acceleration this could allow smooth playback of 360p clips and GPU accelerated flash shouldn't slow down browser that much.
Now it's just up to adobe to release supported version of flash and maybe up to samsung to release new firmware
EDIT: Decided to add a poll to see what will you do with flash after finally getting it on your device
Great news!
This is great!!!

Few things about this announcement that I keep thinking about:
1) this new version of flash will probably need new drivers developed by qualcomm to make flash work as it should so this means that samsung will have to release new firmware after the latest 2.3.3, so maybe with 2.3.4?
2) New drivers could mean improvements to the 3D performance
3) Samsung please do everything to give us full flash support!
honestly I don't use flash that much. the only thing I do use it for is flash videos and skyfire does the trick brilliantly! sure there are a few bugs but the browser is improving day by day. i see little to no use for me! but for some people that love flash games this is indeed great news!
I personally love not having no flash on my phone...too much adverts in my opinion!
This is my first post here. I want to buy this phone in recent times. In post above you mentioned skyfire browser. Does it show flash content even in this phone that does not support adobe flash?

AFAIK skyfire allows user to enjoy flash videos without flash on device. It transcodes(or whatever) the flash videos to something that is supported by the device.
Don't know precisely how it works cause I'm still using default system browser.
Nope. It only allow to watch videos, but not all. For example on a site with few embedded it will play only the first one.
And not all sites are supported.

Thanks for clearing that up, now I learned something new too
After more than a week of people voting in the poll I decided to summarise it.
1) 56,41% of people will use it to watch flash videos and that was to be expected.
2) 43,59% of people will show that their Ace supports flash, which I think is very funny and I will do the same. What's more interesting is the fact that only 35,9% will use it to play flash games.
3) 7,69% will not download it. I find it strange considering how many people longed for flash support.
I made to open flash 10.1 via Adobe air on LG GT540 with arm 6, now I have samsung. No flash - is shame...
Flash for acr would be great
Any specyfied time of this update?

[Q] Flash player on CM9 Beta

Just wondering if anyone has got adobe flash player to work on CM9 Beta? I'v been trying around with pretty much every version avalible. I have not seen much about it in the CM9 Beta dev thread. I hope people dont take this as an attempt to be pushy about it, I'm just wondering how to progress is going. The CM9 Beta from zeubea is very much appreciated and I'm very thankful for it.
It will not fully work but you can still install it.

Okey, which version is that? 10.1, 10.2, 10.3? Cause 11 will never work right.

Here's how I make mine work :
Install 10.3 apk, which is actually flash 11. After installing don't open just reboot.
You will find flash setting in your app drawer. Just do whatever setting suits you
Flash will work only on the stock Google browser. I tried with opera next it dun work.
Now just go to bbcsports football and try. It works all the time for me.
It works, don't get me wrong but it doesn't work well. Flash videos on the internet lag like a ***** to the point where it is unplayable. I'm using version 11 (or so it says)

I did what you said ndmuni and it's still not working.
I downloaded it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340773 which I thought should be the right version.
The app said 10.3 not 11 as Stevemotto mentioned.
I then uninstalled and tried from the same thread I found the first one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23663364&postcount=28
That one said 11.v11.0.1.153 in the app.
Still the same result.
I tested BBCSports football with the original browser and the result has always been it tells me to download adobe flash player and it links me to adobe saying
I got the wrong verison.
It's really hard for me to give this one up as I know that some live streams I watched before worked fine with another rom, and when you guys says it works for you.
I would really appreciate if you guys can link me the page where you downloaded your version. It would help me narrow down the possible factor that I might still have the wrong version.
Thanks for helping me out.

Hey guys, as zeubeas rom is still in beta0 and there is still some issues with the 2D drivers (something to do with debug), plus most of codecs are still broken, I have also tried most of the versions of flash available with out much success. These issues I suggest could also be related to cm9 itself, from what I've seen our ics is ported from an RC anyway and not from a stable version. Hopefully this is a fixable issue, and not one of those non fixable issue.

Can you please tell me which apk of 10.3 to download? there's numerous ones.
I'm running CM9 unofficial build for HTC ChaCha, and I'm yet to find a flash player that works on it
Yea that would be helpful.
If no flash player in ROM, we can't playing video in Youtube ????

I find myself using Boat browser more than any other... with Skyfire a close 2nd; however, the stock/"Internet" browser works surprisingly well for flash. For example, the flash test page (which also displays version number... or an error msg...) is blank with boat, but works fine with stock:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
Lucidmike78 (YouTube Note 2 tips videos) mentioned flash compatibility of stock browser in passing and, although I hadn't used it for years, I thought I'd give it a try: he is right! FULL YouTube on stock browser (with flash installed) is far better than YouTube app!
