I would be most grateful for any help or advice with setting up my Nexus 10.
My first problem is getting browsers that work with flash player. I've installed flash player but there is no option to activate it in the Opera Mobile browser or in the Chrome browser.
Also, I cannot use the BBC iPlayer or the latest BBC Media player for it says they are not compatible.
you can try boat browser. that is what Iuse on my echo and Erik install on my nexus 10 tonight.
I think skyfire supports flash but you have to buy the add on.

Thanks very much for your reply.
I've tried the boat browser and skyfire but they will not allow me to view a web site that uses flash player because I get an error asking me to install flash player which I have already done.
Perhaps those two browsers will only allow you to view video using flash player.
But I'm not sure.
Dolphin browser worked for me after installing flash. It is similar feel to chrome which is nice.

Forgive the dumb question, but now that I've downloaded the Flash apk for my stock nexus 7, how do I get dolphin to recognize it? When I try to play flash video it says that I need to install flash, or that my device is not compatible....is there a way to make this work
Nexus 7....Verizon sg3..stock as hell.
latest version of Dolphin browser does not support flash.
I would suggest you use Firefox Beta....works like a champ.
Boat browser is also good but dolphin will not allow you to use flash.

Downloaded Firefox beta, seems smooth, but there is no sound on flash video. What the bleep am I doing wrong?

+1 for boat, have been using it since I got my Nexus a few months ago because of the flash support and it's been rock solid!
I still think the AOSP stock browser is best for flash support

Stock Browser seems to work best with flash for me (using Paranoid ROM)
Any way to activate flash player.
...or an 4.2 not support flash atall!

Its not supported at all, though I haven't tried using dolphin browser. From what I know they still had a way of having flash work sometimes.

Not officially supported, you have to sideload it.

Works 100% perfect with aokp 4.2 browser , search the themes and apps thread to get a copy and directions
Just load the latest version of flash for android from adobe.com and a browser who supports the plugin e.g. firefox from market and you're fine. works great for me
I also find flash works better when you set user agent to android instead of desktop.
I'm using it with Firefox and it's great -- high frame rate, good resolution. It's almost as good as a desktop experience playing embedded videos.
Any way to watch amazon prime instant video's? Has anyone gotten the instant video app to work?

Using flash to play Amazon Prime works great.
I used CM10.1 with AOSP browser but you can do it on the stock ROM too, I imagine.

For general information the stock web browser will still support Flash. You can sideload Flash to the device and play videos and view other sites requiring Flash. I was searching the internet and wanted to see a clip but it required Flash. I downloaded the latest Flash Player and installed. Worked fine with the stock browser.

Just curious about where do you download the flash player.
Just google Adobe Flash Player 11.1_11.1.115.34-1.apk you should find somewhere to download it
Sent from my GT-N5100 using Tapatalk 2
Download from adobe:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.54/install_flash_player_ics.apk
Dolphin Browser works best with flash player, but you need to root the phone and hack the settings.
Use Root Explorer or similar app to edit mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml from data/data/mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser
change the line string name="plugin_state" from OFF to ON or ON_DEMAND and save

It works 100% with mine.
I understood that Dolphin removed flash support, so it will not work with the current revision of either Dolphin or Dolphin beta. However Boat browser still supports it. I understand there is a work around hack, but its not worth my time when another browser works just as well.

For those who want to stream video via Amazon Prime, experiences have been generally negative. I had no luck with stock or xscope and others have had little luck with other browsers. Other than that, Flash experience has been OK for me.

Flash working fine here on stock browser, but even better, on this tab stock browser also supports smart text reflow, something sadly missing on stock browsers since gingerbread.

"mingkee" Thanks for sharing link for downloading adobe player.
You can also use dolphin browser with user agent set to ipad. Flash type files seem to work fine.

The stock browser already support flash player. Beside, you may try Boat Browser, but have to purchase the pro license keys. Another choice is Lightning Browser.
However, I am searching for the compatible version of the adobe flash player, the latest and last version is 11.1.115.69, but it does not seems to be stable as I thought the latest should be bugs fixed and stability. I have tried to roll back to 11.1.115.54 and is more stabilise.
Flash archives straight from the source.

Are there any apps that will give flash support on jelly bean or are we just screwed?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Flash works perfectly for me. I'm rooted and replaced the default browser (Chrome) by renaming the BrowserProviderProxy.apk and BrowserProviderProxy.odex and copying in the Browser.apk from the AOSP Nexus browser. Side-loaded flash for mobile from the Adobe site. Search a little and you'll find lots more info about this. Other users claim Flash support on other browsers, but I haven't used them.
People like to use Firefox and install the flash apk. I have honestly never needed to use flash player though.

I sideloaded the flash player that I backed up from another device and use it with Firefox Beta (no root required).

I've attached the latest flash player. It worked fro me with Firefox. Mine is rooted. But if you are not you can give it a shot. Let me know if it works.

Works great on boat and maxthon browsers.

Dolphin works. Even newest versions. You need to delete or change some tunny browser file. I forget exactly, just search dolphin and flash. And no....you don't have to use version 8.5.xxx. that will crash if you full screen a video.

I just tried UC browser with flash and it worked. So far it's the only one that hasn't crashed when playing flash videos. Firefox crashes occasionally, boat crashes EVERY time I try to play a flash video.
