Flash 10.2 for Optimus S (working!)

[jcwxguy]

Got this from the OV forums, thought you might want to test it out

install_flash_player_10.2.157.340.apk

ive tested some, but seems to work on justin.tv using stock browser (even the chat loads on justin.tv ! just takes a little bit)

I stumbled across this on xda and couldn't help but share. Flash 10.2 working on our Optimus V. The difference between 10.1 and 10.2 is night and day in rendering speed and usability.

Maybe boot into recovery and clear all cache's? I heard that this works on all the GSM versions of CM so I dont see why it wouldn't work on Drew's. But on the same note I really dont know because I dont use CM. But I would try to clear cache's. If that doesnt work I am sure Drew will be along soon to give input.

 

[Masterjakeway]

Should I install before or after clearing the caches?

 

[captmeach7]

I am on Drew's Rom and it works just fine. Which Kernel are you using, and which browser are you trying this with?

I'm sure you all know my spiel about Flash and it not being compiled for ARMv6 blah blah blah...

I saw this and had to see for myself and sure enough I am listening to some Skrillex on the full desktop YouTube website. Motion videos work too, but only at 240p are they watchable with relatively no lag or video artifacts.

HOWEVER, even this version of Flash is not compiled for ARMv6 and therefore won't work completely in all cases. Pretty much any issues you have with FC's, videos not loading, etc are probably caused by this fact alone.

Why do you say this? Just curious?

Doesnt matter. If you got it installed now just clear cache and try again.

Thats a good question... What browser?

 

[Masterjakeway]

Whichever kernel is included in the last update he posted. The stock browser. Opera seemed a little better. I don't really like opera though...

Because Adobe said so.

Enough citations for you?

The version of Flash posted here was hacked to run on ARMv6, but that doesn't mean it was compiled for it.

I can also get an official statement from Adobe HQ if you want me to. I know people

What do you mean by that? You should just be able to install it. Make sure you reboot after installing.
