How to get Adobe Flash Working in Firefox with Android 4.4 KitKat - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I only have to say that someone called ChaChon posted on Bugzilla the .apk a modified installer for Adobe Flash Player that WORKS -at least for me- with Firefox in Android 4.4 KitKat.
If someone wants to try you can download from here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=935676#c23
First uninstall previous flash player then install the new, reboot and try if it works for you.
Hope it helps.

Adobe 7 vs Flash 3.1

Please advice:
I install Adobe 7 and when viewing Youtube the quality seem better than flash 3.1 but when I go to the microsoft mobile website to view video then I just can't.
Should I install both Adobe 7 and flash 3.1 or what did I do wrong? I like Adobe 7 cause quality of youtube seems better but slower.
Thanks
Just what is Adobe 7...?
3.1 doesnt load flash sites. ie. clanpi.com
Are you trying out with Opera?
Yes. using opera to get to window media but when I click on video to play it just didn't do anything. Do I have to install something?
I did install fp7_ppc-en.cab
Thanks in advance
I have a similar problem, on certain flashsites i get " you need the latest flash player to view this content" and i have the same package installed, but sites like youtube works fine...what tha hell is this, very annoying.
Flash Lite 3.1 will play back SWF content created with Flash 9 as long as it does not use ActionScript 3. Only ActionScript 2 support is included in Flash Lite 3.1.
Flash Player 7 for PPC is also ActionScript 2 compatible but only targets material created for Flash Player 7 or earlier.
so... how about giving skyfire a try?

Flash Player 10.1.92.8

For those of you running FroYo it might be of interest to know that a new Flash Player has been released.
Used the .apk provided in the thread linked below and just installed it over the old one on JP3, and it seems to work fine:

[Q] Nexus Owners - can you install flash / does it work?

Can anyone who already has one, install flash and report if it works?
i do not have a Nexus 7 but i have a Galaxy Nexus which i installed the I/O version of jelly bean on.
I can confirm that Flash worked perfectly with Firefox (chrome does not support it) and the stock browser (one rom included that).
i tested with amazon prime instant video and youtube.

Yes, you can install Adobe Flash & Air. I've installed both on my device
Questions go in the Q&A section
but make sure you've got it installed by mid-august cause adobe are removing it from the store.

Well let's hope that HTML5 gets more support soon :banghead:
Alternate download source for Flash install files
After mid-August, you may still be able to find Android Flash at the Adobe web site. I'm too new to be allowed to post links here but I found the apk version at the Adobe web site look for the page titled Flash Player Help Archived Flash Player versions.

My nexus 7 is still on pre-order. But I did test the stock browser of my phone running android 2.3.7 for HTML5 from this link:
http://html5test.com/
Looks like HTML5 is not fully supported on the browser I'm using
Can someone that already has the device test this and share the results?

[Discussion] Crashing/Not working Google apps

Some days ago the meizu m2 of my brother started having problems with the google apps not working any more (completely white screen in Play store and nothing working well). For this reason I decided to unlock its bootloader and install Lineage OS but after flashing Open Gapps I noticed that the google apps keep crashing all the time.
Looking around these forums I noticed that there are a lot of people with the same problem and for this reason I wanted to open this thread to collect all the discussions on the problem and to track any possible news about the problem itself and possible solutions if found.
I think that the cause of the problem may be Google discontinuing support to Gapps on phones not certified (I read some news on this topic some months ago).
I would like to know if someone has already found a solution for the problem to make the Phone usable again with the original Flyme OS or also a custom rom.
Thanks in advance.
[UPDATE] As a first solution for now I installed an old version of the gapps (You can find all the open gapps by date on the tags of the open gapps repository on github i.e: https://github.com/opengapps/arm64/tags?after=20180622) like suggested by someone on other threads. It seems to work for now because just after installation I deactivated the play store from the system settings so that google play services cannot be updated. I use yalp store (available on f-droid) to install apps from the play store
hello , i have a same problem,
this problem is with OpenGAPPS and MindTheGapps with 4 testing roms (Lineage, Viper, CrDroidAndroid, Resurrection_Remix),
in original Flyme OS is same problem.
I've tried Lineage 14, Resurrection Remix, Viper OS, Lineage 12, MIUI and everywhere Google Play Services crashes. As "whole m2 development is dead now" there is no hope that this will be solved.
At the end I installed AOSP 8.1 and it all working fine.:fingers-crossed:
Let me check it and find a solution for this. I will remind you guys what we can do to use it without issues if i found some. M2 is a secondary phone for me now. So let me try.
Updated first post with a possible solution
Uninstall the update (google & google play services), and turn off "auto update" on play store. Hopefully it can help.

Could you specify exactly which open gapps version you used (5.0-9.0?, nano/pico?)
And did you install open gapps on the Lineage OS you already had flashed on or onto stock ROM?

I installed OpenGapps Micro (of the 1st of August 2018) on Lineage OS
Solution:
1. Install 4.5.4I firmware
2. Root your device
3. Unlock bootloader
4. Install twrp 3.2.1
5. Flash AOSP 8.1 Rom
6. Flash arm64 8.1 micro gapps
Working all fine. Good luck.

Hey, I have a few questions regarding this.
Does FlymeOS 6.2.0.0G (or 6.3.0.0A for that matter) not work at all with open gapps?
Is there a point to install that instead of AOSP 8.1?
I still use FlymeOS stock 4.5.4l and I don't know why it would be more beneficial to use AOSP instead of a recent version of stock FlymeOS.
Does AOSP 8.1 have a lot of bugs?
I checked its forum page, it seems quite a lot of things are broken.
The ones that mostly concern me are the battery problems (though I have battery issues with the stock 4.5.4l FW currently as well), bad headphone sound quality, no navbar and sensor issues. Can you confirm that those are still present or has been fixed since?
hi

Do you happen to have a mirror? It downloads extremely slowly. If not, I'll try downloading it now and will mirror it here when it's finished.
EDIT:
Nevermind, found a mirror on the flyme forums:

Hi, I am the one that posted the mega link but you will have to rename it as update.zip I had to change the name to make it more clear in my mega account sorry about that.
