Help Google Now on ICS

[Kwaydash]

I recently searcherd online and saw that Jelly Bean has google now search avaiulable. I dont want to update to Jelly Bean because I've read it does not support adobe flash which for me is a necessaity as to why I have an Android phone. I currently have Google voice search. Is there a way I can install Google now on my Android 4.04 ICS. I dont have a rooted phone. This is my first Android. Thanks

Have a look at XDA Developer, you need to be rooted though.

You can get Flash for JB, just gotta side load it.

Working fine for me on Jelly Bean

The XDA thread here has the latest flash player:

Just update to Jelly Bean and then side load flash onto the phone. Problem solved. No rooting required.

Goingt o look more into what Jelly Bean is like. So far i like the orgnization of ICS. Don't want to fall inoto upgrade and not like it as i have with certain app updates.

Side bar I have no idea what a side load flash is. I will google it.

Sideload means install the apk (I supplied) from your sd card instead if from a market.

I've got flash running on my N7 within firefox. I just downloaded the .apk file from XDA and installed it from that.

My S3 got JB today, flash still works in the stock browser because it was already installed when I had ICS.

Both devices are not rooted, you don't need to be. Just make sure you already have flash on the phone before upgrading and it will be fine.

You can install it whenever. Doesn't need to be on the device before JB

Archived Flash Player versions
