Hi guys,
I rooted my device today and installed some things like AdFree and ES File Explorer (with root file explorer option).
Then I wanted to test how good our Nexus 10 works with Adobe Flash.
Here is your path to get full flash support with your Nexus 10:
You have to unlock your bootloader and root your device afterwards like described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987594 and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996900 or install a prerooted ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997699 (keep in mind, that the newest version of CWM Recovery is 6.0.1.6)
You have to download the AOSP browser for Nexus 7 JB from here and follow the renaming steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780746&highlight=browser+apk
You have to install the Flash Player given in this post, or similar sources.
Enjoy your beautifully fast and sharp flash experience on your Nexus 10 :laugh:
I am not responsible for any bricked devices if you fail at some stage! My Nexus 10 runs perfect with flash now

It even plays Youtube Videos in 1080p. No 4K resolution supported sadly...
So Tube8 will work? Great! :fingers-crossed:
Yes it works perfect, I didn`t know that website..., but yes it works.

On my nexus 10 I have tried to put the apk into the system app folder using root explorer but it is not working. I renamed all the files that were already in the apps folder and when I reboot the browser.apk I put in there dissapears and is nowhere to be found. Its like the system app folder resets on reboot. Also, I found that root explorer would also sometimes not mouth the folder as r/w after pasting it in there. I have restored and flashed to stock, re rooted and tryed again with no success. Am I missing something?
Did you set the permissions of browser.apk to rw- r-- r--? I can't reconstruct your problem here. I restarted several times after the modification and the aosp browser is still there and runs perfect.

I have Flash working on Dolphin and Skyfire by just installing the Flash Player but I would also like Flash working on Opera Mobile if anyone has found a way of doing that on the N10.
Yes, it seems that on reboot everything in the system app folder is restored to how it was before. I have restore stock image and rerooted again and only installed root explorer and still. It is the same. Any one any ideas?
For other noobs like me, you'll need to search XDA for the FLASH.APK to install as well...it's not on the PLAY store any longer.
You can also try this method after you've rooted...
FLASHEX 2.05: (Root Required)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569816
I've used this method on every tablet I've owned (Prime, Infinity, Note10.1, Galaxy tab10.1) and will be applying this method on my N10 so I can watch my Hulu through the browser.
This method works on all browsers from my experience with it. You will need to be rooted though.

If anyone is having a problem where the browser crashes when you try to full screen flash video, you can stop this from happening by going into the address bar, typing "about:debug" then going into settings>debug and selecting UAString and then selecting iPad. No idea why it works, but it does.
I'm having no luck with flash unrooted guess I'll have to give this a go one day . sucks that we don't have flash

I'm running VirusROM senseless on the Thunderbolt and I'm trying to download Adobe flash player 10.2 but I keep getting "package file not signed correctly error" therefore my installation fails . Smart flash player downloads no problem. Is anyone else seeing this issue? If so, any suggestions on how to fix it.
Go into Titanium backup and uninstall. Then download from the market. Enjoy.

Cannot delete adobe flash..Read only file..have root access
I have root access and I'm using Root Explorer to delete or rename this file. Each time I do, it says, " this file is read only." Any ideas? I tried using titanium to uninstall the file but when it goes into CWM, it just says, "error installling file."

I found out that I needed to select "R/W" at the top of Root Explorer to delete that file. After I deleted it, I tried downloading the Adobe Flash again and it was giving me some error message. I rebooted the phone, tried to download again and was successful. I thought by downloading a newer file I would be able to watch youtube. I still can't. I guess I could start a new thread but will that adobe.fix file fix my youtube problem?

Why cant you watch Youtube? I have no issues there. If youre using the standard browser though, you will have issues. I would suggest Skyfire especially for videos or Dolphin HD. Both play flash within the browser.

I followed the steps on that link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=688054
"To make it easier, all you need to do is download Adobe Flash Player 10.2.156.12 from market and replace the /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib/libflashplayer.so which is AND 10,2,156,12 hex edited to look like WIN 99,9,999,99 for HULU.
1) Extract libflashplayer.so to sdcard
2) Copy libflashplayer.so from sdcard to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib using root explorer and make sure the permissions for libflashplayer.so is rwxr-xr-x or chmod 755 the file.
To get this working, make sure to set your browser User Agent string. With the stock Android browser and probably other browsers excluding the Dolphin browser, you might have to do this each time you run any flash based site including hulu.com or start the browser:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686765
Others are strongly encouraged to make a .apk installer file to share with others as a contribution to the Android community. Unfortunately, I have no way to make the .apk file as I have tried existing .apk's and all they did was made it seem like Adobe Flash was not even installed on all sites including hulu.com."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686765
After doing all this, I can finally watch youtube and HULU*added bonus. However, when I load the youtube application on my android, it says," There was a problem while playing Touch to rety"
I came across this Ice Cream Sandwich boot animation adjusted for the Note, and thought I would share it with you guys.
Thanks to febycv for the original animation as found on the Galaxy Nexus.
Thanks to aussiebum for adjusting it to fit the resolution of the Galaxy Note.
Original Thread
**You MUST have root access, as found HERE**
Download Here!
Installation Instuctions:
1. Download sanim.zip to a directory on your sd card
2. Using root explorer or another root file explorer, place the sanim.zip file in /system/media/
3. Reboot, and enjoy this delicious boot animation!
I take no credit for creating or modifying this boot animation.
Hmmm, doesn't seem to work for me.
If you rooted using Da_G's Pre Rooted kernal, then make sure it looks exactly as it does in this picture. And try setting permissions to rw-r-r. If you rooted using a different method, maybe try naming it "bootanimation.zip". Hope you get it working.

I rooted using Mashi's method, although my screen looks exactly like yours so I don't think that's the problem. I've tried both versions of naming the file with the correct permissions set but to no avail....weird.

I put it in the folder and set permissions and everything seemed fine it booted the ICS animation but then I got a massive barrage of force closes. Rebooted again and got stuck at the samsung logo. Had to do a recovery in CWM.
Hmmm. I haven't experienced any of these issues. I wonder why its not working for you guys.

I got the same thing when I tried it yesterday. My phone was running DAGr8s saurom. Had to restore as well. Haven't retried it since.

For those who can't get it to work, what ROMs are you running?
Stock using Mashi's rooting method. Set permissions and didn't seem to do anything using either file name.
I believe that the problem is because you didn't use Da_G's Pre rooted kernel. If I remember correctly, custom boot animations need be be enabled at the kernel level, which is what Da_G has done with his rooting method.

Situation:
-I have a rooted device Samsung Galaxy Ace [GT-S5830L] Android 2.3.4
-I accidentally deleted with Titanium Backup my default browser [Internet 1.0 (1)]
-Therefore I installed Dolphin which is not that bad.
Problems:
-Now wherever I try to watch any youtube video I'm just able to see the loading circle without loading the video.
-I can't use the default browser.
-I lost the voice app to type.
I've tried without good results:
-Use my friends phone [exact same one I have] did a back up with Titanium Back up, copy the backup to my phone and tried to restore.
-I downloaded several [internet.apk] [browser.apk] for my phone and tried to install with Optimize toolbox and from manage applications.

So for the file to be accepted by the phone you need to change the file so it has system access. That feature is built in on most root file explorers

I just tried that and still not working, about the person who recomended Dolphin, that a fare option however there must be something between the browser apk and the youtubr apk cause im not able to load youtube videos...
I've consider getting a ROM but I need a functional ROM and I see a lot of them w/bugs on the camera, wifi, gps, ect... Is there any stable ROM that works over networkbands 900/1800?
Why not re-install your current rom (if you are happy with that) from sammobile via odin perhaps?

If you still have the zip file from your rom, you can copy the original files from it to your phone.
It should be in /system/app (copy both browser.apk and browser.odex). Make sure you put all the correct permissions (mine has all permisions for reading and owner permissions for writing).
Can I get that system internet apk file I also have same problem
Every time I try to download an image now I get an error stating download unsuccessful. Stock browser, which always downloaded images fine. Went to send a friend a pic as a joke and tried other sites and same thing. Not sure what to even check to see what is causing this. Running Shostock3 3.0.2

One option is download and install Rom Manager (by clockworkmod) from the market, and enable browser downloads.

yeh like theother post don't like rom manager. Either way kinda pointless, why do that when the phone/browser used to work fine. Gallery won't even open as it says there's no enough space, that makes no sense as I only have like 20 pics in there, and I've had way way way way more then that before and vids at different points.
dog ate my usb transfer cable, so checking the internal with airdroid and es file.
Ok have about 2GB free on the SD (internal not ext), here's where it's odd, was at Lowes and was trying to check the merv rating of a filter and went to download it and had the same issue as before "download unsuccessful". Used ES File and it downloaded fine. But whats causing the browser to not download, it always did before. I'd rather have that work again and just go into the gallery and open the download folder, vs Scrolling to page -> ES File -> SD -> Download folder each time. And rather not have to use an app when never had to before.
Any ideas? I like to save pics sometimes and send as jokes, or upload, and it was easy to go right into the gallery and send from there. Any ideas what this issue is as I can't find anybody else with it?

Not sure what you mean/looking for, but the post right above yours has more info.
Just an i777 that I've always ran Shostock2 and 3 roms on. But stumped as to why browsers won't download anymore, but ES File will. Browsers used to download right into my photo gallery.
I got the gallery to open today, though it did give me glitch twice saying not enough memory and wouldn't open (when I have 2GB free). Seems to open fine now though.
Well mine was working fine with Shostock 3 till I bricked my phone. After I fixed my phone no Samsung Roms will work on my phone. The gallery said memory full deleat photo's or videos. And I can't download anything, or delete any files with file manager. I was wondering why. Did it have to do with me bricking my phone.
Fix: When I have the problem I can reboot into recovery and fix permissions and after I reboot everything works great

I've dumped the most recent version of Bell's Crave TV apk from my Fire Stick 4K and modified it to remove the Amazon appstore dependencies. I thought I would share the wealth.
Download:
https://mega.nz/#!VSBghCyY!gaM_Rjj8vpd2lPRE-3Fx6dT5hcoz_d88LX2D-dLL00I
Instructions:
- Download the rar file and extract it with for favorite archive extractor (winrar, 7zip etc...)
- Transfer the 2 apk files to a usb stick
- Using your favorite file manager (AnExplorer etc...), install Crave_1.91.0-Mod.apk and the CraveTV_ATV-Forwarder.apk
Tested and confirmed working with the following:
- 2015 16GB Shield
- 2017 16GB Shield
- Mibox

Do you have Amazon app store sideloaded on your device. I did (though I didn't use it). Thus caused crave to crash on start. I uninstalled the Amazon app store which I had sideloaded and ceVe then worked perfectly.
@JJ-KwiK would you be able to pull the Tetris app from your Fire TV? I have a Shield and am unable to find the apk anywhere. Bit of a random request but worth the ask.
