View Full Version : Opera and Flash, what a mess!

I have just get a Diamond2.
It has Flash lite 3.1 in ROM and it works inside PIE.
Unfortunately, PIE is pretty lame as a mobile browser and my beloved PIEPlus does not work anymore with this new version.
Fortunately, Diamond2 has Opera 9.5 build 16277 (a pretty recent build) installed.
Therefore, I supposed I had Flash inside Opera too.
Wrong, Opera does not show Flash clip!

I searched around and found a zillion Opera versions, someone with Flash support, someone not. And build number connection with Flash support is more or less random (some old version support it, some newer does't).

What a mess!

... and this is what everybody wants to read in the "Development & Hacking"-Board...

Try to re-install the Flash Mobile 3.1 Cab.

Or you can try the latest version of Iris Browser, it supports Flashlite 3.1 just fine.

There are several version of Opera that don't use the flash lite plugin at all, if you really need Opera, you can either try to reinstall flash, or find another version that supports flash and the zoombar of the diamond 2.

Are you sure Plugins are enabled in Opera's config? That's probably all it is.

Im having the same problem too with 16277?? Ive looked all over and had read somewhere that flash was built into this version of opera,(16277)??? I uninstalled the flashlite 3.1 that I had running and it still dont work?? I double and triple checked everything and my settings seem good , so Im stumpped.... I do have to say, out of all the operas I have trued this build rocks! Except for the flash thing though..?? Speed wise it blows 15954 away. Any1 got any ideas why flash isnt working? I just got a replacement so Im pretty much stock as far as ROM goes. 4 now anyways.
