So as we are all aware Adobe said they wouldn't support flash in Jelly Bean, as stated here - http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/375574/adobe-kills-off-flash-for-android

Of course on the Jelly Bean ROM I'm running flash doesn't appear in the market, but when I installed the apk, flash worked perfectly on a number of websites.

Just out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone knew the reason as to why it still works?! This is not a huge update to ICS so may be due to that but I was just being interested and wondering. Anyone have any insight?

Cheers guys.

EDIT: I have attached the adobe flash apk, the latest one. Install it on your device manually if you're running jelly bean and flash should work. Although I think we have established it will only work in the default android browser

Which version is this?

I couldn't get it to work either.

You're only installing the Flash player. It's not a standalone app in the traditional sense. Try loading a website in FF mobile that contains Flash content. That said, you should at least be presented with a Flash Player Settings option in the main apps menu, which takes you to Adobe's website.

so I was having the same issue what the thread fails to mention b/c I guess we should know this is there are a couple of steps you do before it'll start working on your device. Here is a link that shows you what to do after installing flash from page one of this thread. http://www.itpro.co.uk/641869/installing-adobe-flash-on-android-jelly-bean-devices/step1.

Flash Isn't an App

Flash isn't an App per ce, it is a plug in which enables certain content on the web. A good example is the BBC website, where embedded videos don't work if flash is not installed.

Because it is a plugin which works through your browser, you need a browser which is compatible with flash. Chrome for Android does not work with flash! But the old default browser does. I think firefox also allows flash to function.

Anyway...as useful as flash is now, its usefulness is slowly diminishing, as more web designs switch to HTML5. Having said that, until the BBC decide to join this decade and switch to H5, flash will have a home on my droids!

Thanks for the info in this thread.

Flash now working in my S3 running 4.1.2 on the default browser.

Also as discussed will not work with firefox or chrome.

Be good when ABC (Australia) develop their app. But now watching Iview.

Thanks again

what about 4.2

Flash was working fine for 4.1 on my mz601. But since the update 4.2, I have the bad impression flash is really over

Anybody experiencing the issue?

which apk of flash are you using?

thx for your reply. Can you tell me how did you install Flash over 144 build? I restored flash app from titanium backup. Might be a good idea to reinstall a proper apk?

I flash the rom without doing a factory reset and the apps are all automatically restored (optimized). Otherwise I use Titanium Backup but I do keep a copy of the apk on my sdcard just in case.

Users can download Flash Player for Android from Archived Flash Player site.

r@fel · Feb 17, 2013

does not work with the apk neither :-\ (I test on the stock browser of course, not chrome)

Flash is no more a key element required to browse the web, and anyone who says otherwise is basically out of contact with how far HTML5 has developed. I must say that flash is the only cause of crashes for me.

flash player

I have another original alternative to download the last version of Flash player:

You download my TV apk, install and automatically this app propose you to install the last version of Flash player you accept and install.
After that you can remove this TV apk or keep it if you love it.

Cheers buddy, great idea.

Ive tried a few different 'latest versions' but none work.
This was a good way to find the best version for my device that does.
Not a bad tv app either
