This is the 7 inch tablet. It is not a phone.
Two weeks ago, I contacted Samsung help about my device working slowly. Long story short, he had me go into Safe Mode and then consider uninstalling and reinstalling apps to see if any of them caused the problem. My tablet did work better after that--until suddenly I wasn't able to play videos in FB as I had been doing all along. The message was that Flash player was unavailable. I have since contact Samsung twice and gotten the same reply: Adobe has chosen not to support Flash for Android anymore. That's it. They can't recommend anything else.
But WHY did it work until that "fix"? I've looked on tons of forums (including this one) and none of the suggestions have helped. I haven't installed Dolphin or Puffin or any other new browser because reviews of everything suggested say "It was perfect until the latest update."
The most recent thing I tried was installed the VLC app, but I have no idea what to do with it. If there's a video on FB that won't play, I see no way to make it open in VLC.
I did not do a complete reset, but I did go back to defaults--didn't do anything to help.
