Help Flashplayer problem

[fordy40]

Investors.com has a digital version of their newspaper I want to read on my Galaxy S5, but it requires adobe flash player. I tried to download it and open the paper after, but I get a problem parsing package message. Can someone help me out?

Hi @fordy40 and welcome to Android Forums

Flash Player is no longer officially available for Android, but there is hope!

Adobe has a how-to for manually installing flash.

Alternatively (and much easier), you can try out Dolphin Browser which has built-in Flash support.

Hopefully one of those approaches will be able to help you out.

O man thanks. This thread helped me too. Gonna give a shot to Dolphin Browser.

Get the Flash from Dolphin Labs -

Be sure to turn on Dolphin Jetpack in your settings and allow plug-ins.

Jetpack must be on.

Thanks for that clarification - it's been ages since I used Dolphin last so I couldn't remember the exact steps to get it to work.

Thank you for all the help, but i just cant seem to download the flash player. Its android 4.4 on a galaxy S5 , dolphin settings flash player on, jet pack on...I keep coming back to this flash player issue, problem parsing package. All this for a digital newspaper

Are you downloading it with Dolphin from the Dolphin site I linked?

I ask because unbelievably, I've helped two guys this week that could not get a decent download using Chrome.

 

[fordy40]

Yes, i tried the flash player from chrome with no luck. I am going to try the manual install as mentioned above...

Let me know how that works out.

VICTORY!!! Thanks for all the help, I followed the how to manual install from @codesplice and it worked. Unfortunately the paper is not 100% legible, but I guess that is because their site and digital paper are not well designed for mobile reading. I hope they get with the program. Thanks again.

Sweet! Thanks for reporting back to let us know that it worked!!

I see theres quite a few to choose from when you download it from there. What version number did you select? I'm going to put it on my new Samsung Galaxy tab S 10.5.
