[Q] issues with dolphin browser - Nook Color General

I have froyo booting from SD... cannot get any flavor of dolphin to work correctly for me - continually get FC's. Stock browser works fine... stock even works with flash, dolphin crashes. Anyone else having this issue?
I have uninstalled dolphin, and reinstalled also.

What version of Dolphin are you using? I heard 4.3 has issues. For the Nook, use 4.2.

How do I get 4.2? The link in the marketplace leads nowhere.

Sorry, found it. It's a new beta which can be found here: http://bit.ly/gQMOc7

Did that beta work? 4.2 is the older version (current is 4.3)

I have tried dolphin mini and dolphin hd. HD messed up on me first, and I uninstalled it. Mini will not work now either.

4.2

[Q] Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 Flash Cannot play video

Ive been reading up on this for about 2 weeks now and decided to flash nookie-froyo-0.6.8.custom.3.zip. I got market and all the gapps to work fine but cant seem to get any youtube videos on my browser to work i keep getting the error - Cannot play video - Sorry, this video cannot be played.
Is this just an issue with nookiefroyo or is there a workaround. youtube from browser works just fine from my htc aria. Thanks
I'm having similar problems. Flash content works on some sites, but anytime that I try to watch a flash video, the browser crashes.
Anybody have advice?

Switch user agent from default (Android) to desktop.
Does Flash works on other websites? If it does not, backup Flash with Titanium Backup, uninstall, and then restore Flash.
Thanks for the reply!
I have dolphin hd. i downloaded the addon for this and still it doesnt work can you explain how to do this without dolphin, still with the addon it doesnt work thanks in advance
In Dolphin: Menu > More > Settings > User Agent > Desktop
Both times I installed nookie froyo, I have to uninstall flash, then reinstall from the market. This always fixes any issues I was having.
I'm having this problem with Firefox too. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash via Titanium Backup (this actually worked with Firefox on my Android phone), but Firefox still won't play Flash, acts like Flash isn't installed. The default browser does play Flash though.
Any other tricks other than uninstalling and reinstalling Flash? Firefox doesn't seem to have an option to change the agent.
Grab the Flash 10.2 that's floating around the forums. It is working great on my NC with the Customized Nookie Froyo 0.6.8.

Issues with the update 1.2

I rooted my nook using MN 4.5.6 after I updated to 1.2
My device failed to reboot after I updated the flash player to 10.3, I suggest that no one does that.
Flash only works with built-in browser, for example if you install Dolphin browser it won't work on it.
I'm unable to update the market app like i have done in the past, thus the problem with tilting the device sideways to load more apps still remains.
Anyone has a solution to any of these issues?
bump bump bump
I wish I could be of some help, but at least I can reply as to whether I'm having the same issue.
My (well it's technically my wife's) NC came with 1.1
I updated that to 1.2 from the barnes & noble site, then rooted it with the latest manual nooter (4.5.18 I think.)
I did not update flash however, and flash works just fine in Dolphin HD.
The easiest thing to do would probably be to just flash to stock and then re-root it. You'll end up losing stuff, but it's probably the most sure-fire way to get back to a working state.
Edit: I have no idea what can be done about the market issue. I'm having that as well and it's kinda irritating.

[SOLVED] Adobe Flash crashes with YouTube videos

Hi fellows!
Today I discovered a problem with my TAB, when I try to open Flash videos, like the ones on YouTube, the web browser crashes. I have tried with the stock and dolphin web browsers and it always crash when I open a YouTube video. Besides that, flash is working and I can watch videos with YouTube app.
I also tried to update flash from 10.1 to 10.3 but it didn't fix the problem.
I have a P1000L Galaxy Tab with stock rom.
Does anyone know how can I fix it?
Thanks!
EDIT: Well, after flashing an Android 2.2.1 ROM with filesystems converted to EXT4 (HumberOS ROM 1.2.5), the problem is gone and I can correctly use flash 10.3 in browsers. Although, I can't state what was really causing the problems...
I found a thread that many people in Brazil is reporting the same problem. I'm not sure if it is happening only with P1000L devices.
Here is the thread: http://www.androidz.com.br/forum/topic/4581-problemas-com-video-em-flash-apos-firmware-update/ (in Portuguese)
The proposed solution is to download an old flash version (10.1.72.7) and install.
I have tried here and the problem is really gone. Now I can watch youtube videos on Dolphin browser (when I set User Agent option to Desktop) without any problems.
Can anyone with another Galaxy tab version confirm this issue? Or help me to fix problems with 10.3 flash version?
By the way, I'm using stock android 2.2 ROM, but it also seems to be happening with 2.2.1 stock ROM.
I found that the latest adobe flash player that doesn't have this issue here is 10.1.92.8.
Problem solved by flashing an Android 2.2.1 ROM.

[FLASH] *Nov 11/11/11 UPDATE* Hulu hacked flash 11.1.102.59

I have took it in my own hands to hack the flash apk to allow you to watch Hulu. This is version 11.0.1.153. I have tested on Hulu.com and also youtube.com to ensure youtube still works. This is my first hack and my first apk so please install at your own risk. I do not assume responsibility for any negative effect this has on your xoom, your computer, or your life
Just install via ADB or save to your xoom and install normally.
You will need to uninstall your current version of flash for this to work.
Hulified v 11.1.102.59
**You need Root to use this application**
Thanks, Bill! Trying it out as soon as I get 3.2.2 working. As you know on IRC, I'm still bootlooping. LOL.
Bilago can I tell you from the bottom of my heart how much I love you right now!!!
I'm on 3.2 and I uninstall my flash/rebooted then installed your flash and rebooted. tried it on the stock browser, xscope pro, opera, firefox and it's not working, but I just installed Dolphin HD, changed user agent to computer and BAMB!
I got HULU again.
Update: what version of youtube are you running? mine keep saying "there was a problem while playing touch to retry"

I just tested the youtube app and it works fine for me, version of youtube is 3.2.3.
I also just tried hulu on stock browser, maxthon, and dolphin HD, all working. Try uninstalling flash again, uninstall adobe air, then reinstall my flash apk. Let me know how that works. I'm on #xoom as xoombill if you want to chat there.

ok false alarm, youtube is working. I was at work using their wifi and forgot that they have youtube blocked. i'm home now and it's working.
I also installed maxthon and it's working there as well. still can't get it to work on stock browser but I don't care about that.

I believe this is because the stock browsers UA is "Android".
In order for this to work, the UA must be Desktop. You don't have the option to change that in the stock browser that comes with the Xoom.
Almost 90% sure

If you are not running one of the ROMs that sets the UA to Desktop you must manually change it each time you open the stock browser. To do this follow these steps.
1) Once the stock browser is open, type "about:debug" in the address line and hit enter. It will appear as though nothing has changed so this is normal.
2) Open the browser settings. Now you will see items such as "Dump Navigation Cache", etc.
3) Go into Settings>Debug. Here you will see UAString. You can set the UA to desktop and then hit back. This will stay until the browser is closed.
I am hoping this is accurate as I am running a ROM with this set so had to go by memory.
Thanks for this! Everything seems to work with the exception of justin.tv. Any ideas why this won't work? I use this to watch news. I'm on tiamat hammerhead.

Thank you very much! The notification to update Adobe Flash was getting annoying ;-)
Works great! Thanks.
asking for a friend, does this work on the Transformer?
I found the stock browser is a hit & miss. Seems to work good on Dolphin HD

No idea. Worst case it doesn't and you have to uninstall flash and reinstall it. Nothing can really happen that will damage the transformer.
Works great thanks for your work!!
Flash Player 11 is coming out tonight! Keep an eye out on the market y'all. I didn't wanna make a thread for this because there is no reason to. So, there ya go.
With version 11 comes major stability and performance improvements, as well as new 3D game console quality graphics, this of course will not be ready to be used yet on launch. This is quite a feat for Flash based games.
Maybe this new updated Flash Player will work with Hulu by default? If not, I'm sure this Hulu modified Flash Player will make its way onto 11.

iPlayer Issues Touchpad

Hi All,
Honestly I have searched for this everywhere.....
Can't get the iPlayer App to work. I'm running Milestone AOKP 4 at the moment as the TP came with this pre-installed from ebay. (ITV Sort of Works) Embedded flash also doesn't work and I am redirected to the flash site which says I have it....
I've also downloaded FlashPlayer 11 from the market but that doesn't seem to work. Can anybody help me?
I'm new to flashing with Mboot & ACME (Not really used either) But very comfortable with ROM Manager and CWM Recovery stuff)
Also whenever I go to youtube on the browser (stock / Chrome Beta) it force closes and I have to restart the app. YouTube App is working fine.
Is anyone else experiencing these issues? Is it recommended to move to CM9 Nightlies or Alpha2?

Try doing a wipe / factory delete, wipe dalvik cache and install the latest nightly.
There are many free apps in the market, like doubleTwist, that are great media players.
I don't use Chrome. Dolphin HD, Opera and icsbrowser+ are what I use. Some things that one can't do, one of the others can.
Your can flash using cwm, install zip from sdcard, but you won't have data. But if you have a backup, you can try and restore data using CWM advanced restore > restore data. That's what I do.
Good luck.
Edit: Boot into webos and make sure it's up to date. Should be 3.0.5. Also install the speed tweaks, preware and patches /kernels.
I didn't think the Web OS version mattered if you are running cm?

I guess the webOS version doesn't really matter if you only run android. But I use webOS quite a bit. It's a great os, you'll also find that the battery life is much, much better.
