Adobe Flash Player for Samsung Galaxy Ace

Hi ram943
Flash 10.3 for Arm v6 never worked with Opera Mini or Opera mobile browsers (I' don't know if I fail something). Flash works fine with native browser or Dolphin HD.

Link for ACE CM 7.2: [UPDATED 01/12/2011][ROM][UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 7.2-cooper-KANG-RC0-Android 2.3.7 - xda-developers

Note: Be careful if you go to CM 7.2 and want to return to stock, because CM converts all partitions to ext4 and Stock ROM doesn't support this format. You must convert partitions to RFS before return to Stock ROM.

Hi Kinas,

How can i be able to convert partitions to RFS? Can you assist me with this bro? Tanx.
 
So from what i understand by judging the xda forum and the youtube video, this should work with stock roms too. Well it didn't for me. And to answer those who ask why we need flash? To view websites like peteava.ro and view the videos.
 
So no comments & nobody can tell me why I would actually NEED Flash on the Ace?? I like my Ace to have all the "bells & whistles" available, but I haven't come across anything that is hindered by not having it....... :confused:

I realized that my SGA was not compatible with Flash Player when I went on Megavideo to watch a TV show.

So that's what I "need" (i.e. would like to have it) for. I'm sure other people would have other uses for it.
 
Ok i see that a lot of you people aren't getting flash player to work
so i'll give u a more detailed tutorial:
To get flash player u need to have Cyanogen Mod7 which is basically a cooler version of android.
Note:Controls in clockworkmod recovery
Volume button up and down: to scroll up and down
Home button:Select action
To get CyanogenMod7 (The End rom)
1.) Download Clockwork mod recovery from this link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=743333&d=1318051346 and name it upd.zip
1.1.)Download CyanogenMod7 from here: [ROM] The End (CM 7.2 RC0 KANG) - xda-developers
2.) Go into recovery mode by first switching off the phone and then holding the
home+power button.
3.)Next install the recovery by clicking update from sd card.
4.)After it installs, reboot your phone into recovery again and you will be in clockwork mod recovery.
5.)From here select choose zip from sd card.
6.)Scroll down to where you saved the zip file and select it.
7.)It will start installing and after it finishes you have cyanogen mod7.. Woohoo!!

This has Adobe flash player 11 inbuilt and this is the ROM that i use and it works perfectly for me.

Thanks are appreciated!
 
Is there any way to get the flash player without Cyanogen Mod7?
I use stock ROM. I have a fast 3G connection and some free data every month. It is waste if I don't have flash player in my phone.

Thanks for the above guide. is it really that simp,le to do? I've read other threads and it seem a lot more complicated! I'm getting bored of waiting for O2 to release another update i'm on 2.3.3 so I'm thinking about installing a new ROM.

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to ask this question on so if it's not I'm sorry but whats the latest most stable ROM is there an Ice cream version out yet?

Thanks and sorry if I should of started or posted another thread.

1.) Yes it is this simple to do.
2.)There are many stable roms. Just go to the galaxy ace forum in xda-developers.com to see all the ROMS available.
3.)Yes there are actually two.
One which is called TheMythICS(or something like that).
And the second runs on Cyanogenmod 9 but is still in its alpha version and thus is less stable. I use a rom called The End.
Basically there are millions of ROM's out there and you choose which one you like.

Hi friends I have came across flash player version which works for all browsers (opera mobile) just go to google and type (flash player for galaxy ace, acetips.wordpress.com)
 
I use the Dolphin HD (NOT THE MINI VERSION) browser on my stock 2.3.3 gingerbread phone, uses the flash player on all sites I've tried so far, no flashing the phone risking bricking it needed just install and use the browser.
 
Hi,

It isnt properly working. Check the threads as there is loads of info on it ......

Hi, I agree, naughty that our Ace was advertised as playing BBC iplayer via Flash! Mine is stock Froyo 2.2.1 & I can watch UK Freeview TV via www.android.tvcatchup.com no problem. Are you in the UK? Graham. London :)
 
Ok right I just took a deep breath and flashed cyanogenmod 7.1 and WOOHOO my flash I installed now works for m.tvcatchup thanks Graham. I tried it before changeling to cyanogen and nothing. I uninstalled flash 10.3 as i read somewhere here that cyanogenmod all ready has flash 11 preinstalled but I was unable to view flash sites. So ivreinstalled 10.3 and it works great now. I'm not sure how to quote on these things but yes I am from UK Graham although The main reason I wanted flash was for iplayer which. I still can't view. Confused. Com any help guys of is it just summit I should just forget about. Seems weird that I want that lol just I rent a room and have no actual TV or computer. IVE MISSED SOME GOOD SHOWS lol. Thanks to everyone
 
Hi I really don't like cyanogen just not for me. I'm desperate ly trying to find a stock 2.3.6 rom that I can install same as I did cyanogen. I don't have any computer to do it with Odin. Please help.
 
does Flash work with Miren browser, TubeX or Fast Youtube Downloader and is there a version of flash i can use with the stock ROM?
i don't really want to flash a custom ROM as i have had a bad experience doing this in the past and i don't want to brick another phone.
