Good quality Flash player friendly browser

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 11:08 AM

Are there any browser's that support flash players better than the factory one? Dolphin seens lag as well as the factory one.

Try Opera. I really like it. It's a bit more slimmed down than Dolphin HD, and I find it to run better and consume less resources than Dolphin.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 11:14 AM

Ok, try it.

When I got to a site that requires a flash player it says that I need to get Flash Player.....?

**JayWill** · 11-03-2011, 11:45 AM

Check your installed apps. Do you have it? If not download it from the market.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 11:47 AM

Yes, I have Adobe Flash player.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 11:51 AM

The videos on this "certain" site are laging and they are hard to "enjoy".......

**chubbs123** · 11-03-2011, 01:57 PM

Try Skyfire Browser. It works really well.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 02:05 PM

Gotcha

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 02:10 PM

I just tried it and it's dping the same thing. The videos are all jerky (no pun intended). They aren't smooth and fluid like they should be. They almost look like an old webcam vid. Is it maybe something in my flash player setting, which btw is the factory installed one, Adobe?

Are you watching it over 3g, 4g, or wifi? I've noticed that it's much smoother over wifi and 4g.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-03-2011, 02:29 PM

3G. I'll try wifi. We don't have 4G here in the wonderful state of Arkansas yet....

Only site I have flash lag with is the hamster, even on wifi. This wasn't always the case so hopefully this'll be resolved soon. But my current workaround is Skyfires alternate video player. You can get the licence from 4share. I have to use Skyfire cause site has most relaxing vids on the net.

I know you mentioned you had some issues with Dolphin HD (I did too thought it was just way too much for a mobile browser). I've had a lot of success using Dolphin Mini. Its a stripped down version of Dolphin HD and I find it very fast. The quick launch links are very helpful and it does a great job at rendering sites.

Yes, Hamster is the same site giving me fits as well.

Same issue with the hamster on my phone. Worked fine on my EVO's stock browser (except for their bad bandwidth taking forever to load).

I would describe the problem more as it's skipping frames. Also I've noticed the volume control on another site similar to the hamster just plain doesn't work, nor does the menu button. I see the button being "pressed" but the menu never comes up. The volume icon is "empty" so it should practically be muted, but it's full volume, and no adjustment is possible.

Anyone know if there's a way to install the browser from the EVO to the SGSII? Via APK? Or is it too tied into Sense?

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-04-2011, 06:24 PM

Yes, we need this really bad....................................

**jonathon6017** · 11-04-2011, 06:27 PM

I think you have an issue beyond your browser because I have a device with an 800MHz proccesor and 500mg of RAM and flag runs just fine on most stuff there is rarely any lag.

Yea I think it's the site.

**Ogre840** · 11-04-2011, 07:52 PM

Going from the EVO to the E4GT and only then having the issue, I don't think it's the device it self, but the browser software, or the way flash is handled in the browser.

**original00** · 11-05-2011, 07:23 AM

I used to swear by dolphinhd but I tried maxthon browser and haven't looked back.

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-07-2011, 07:27 AM

I've noticed that not all vids do this on Hamster. Some of them asctually work fine. I wonder if it could be due to others watching the same vid while your trying to "enjoy" it?

**Drummerboy1975** · 11-07-2011, 01:55 PM

Some are now saying that they aren't Mobile Phone Optimized. But if you use their mobile site your very restricted on what you can watch. That saddens me.
