Flash Lite / Flash 10.1 Support ?

---

The reports I've read online suggest the Legend doesn't ship with Flash Lite support as the Hero does. Also Adobe have said you need a snapdragon cpu or higher to get Flash 10.1 support.

Does this leave the Legend with no flash ?

The post be Adobe....

Hi all,

You can expect the final release for Android to be available mid-year. All Android devices that meet our minimum s/w and h/w requirements will be supported. Unfortunately, I cannot say a lot more publicly about our port to the Android platform at this time.

As for WinMo, we have made the tough decision to defer support for that platform until WinMo7. This is due to the fact that WinMo6.5 does not support some of the critical APIs that we need.

As for your other questions:
* Yes, we will support the Motorola Milestone.
* No, the HTC Hero will not be supported b/c it does not have the correct Anroid OS version and it’s chipset is not powerful enough. We require a device with an ARM v7 (Cortex) processor. Examples include the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets and TI OMAP3 series.

Best regards,
Antonio

i have this question too but i can't get an answer anywhere

well the pre-release one i saw could not play bbc iplayer programs (it crashed the browser) but it just about managed to play youtube, although quite slow and jerky.

It seems to have flash lite at the moment, but this was a pre-release device which didn't even have Sense on it yet.....

all the early reviews I've read said it does have flash and it works:

well playing "Restaurant City" (Facebook Flash Games) works - very slow but working...

Hi all,

Just thought I'd bump this as I haven't found a definitive answer just yet [please provide the necessary link if I have missed it!].

1] I presume Flash Lite is shipped & working with the Legend...?

2] Any news on 'full fat' Flash 10.1 support? As per OP, Adobe suggest a snapdragon processor is required, is this still the case? Will we ever see Flash 10.1 on the Legend?

Thanks in advance

Yup it comes with flash lite.

No news on Flash 10.1 for the Legend.

the legend must have flash lite flash works but it seems to be completely cpu based which leads to performance problems.

im surprised they would say that 10.1 needs snap dragon. the desktop flash10.1 added GPU acceleration i was under the impression that android 10.1 would bring the same which had a huge potential to increase flash performance making it close to if not perfect

also flash 10.1 will be in FroYo (2.2) chances are htc will update to 2.2 (least i hope) so we should get it anyway if not then custom rom it up!

hi guys, I am trying to port flash lite into LG optimus one. since the htc legend and Optimus one has the same processor and OS, it might be possible to just dump in the files into system\app and system\lib. So can someone extract the flash related files from these 2 folders?

Nice bump

Just download one of the Froyo ROMs in the Development section + dsixda's kitchen (check Chef Central -> Android) and extract all files you need.
