No NOAA radar animation?

[menelfloss]

I like to check NOAA doppler radar during storms and notice that the Razr does not animate the radar. Tried stock, chrome and dolphin browsers, still nothing.
I think it is looking for java. I tried looking for a java plug in, but no luck. My Galaxy Nexus stock browser animated the radar just fine.
Thoughts?

Which app are you using? I use radar now by usnaviguide llc. Mine is animating fine. Go into your browser. Go into settings then advanced, and make sure enable javascript is checked and enable plug-ins always on.

You should use Raindar app. Its free and works great! Living in Southwest Florida being a golf pro and fishing guide I check our all the time in the summer.

I used to simply go to the Noaa radar site like I do on my computers.
Interesting that I could do it on the Nexus. (does not work as a phone though).
I found an app "weather here" which shows the radar but not the watch or warning boxes.
I will look for "radar App"
Thanks

Try pykl3 radar. Isn't free but it's the best radar app you can get

It's works fine with the built in browser if you go and select the loop for the area you want. I just tried it and you start on the base reflectivity map. Choose the loop to your left on the screen for the area you want and you will be good to go.

I'm using Chrome and just went to NWS Enhanced Radar Mosaic: Upper Mississippi Valley Sector Loop and worked just fine.

I know the large regional radars animate but if you click on your sector and and select loop I get a little icon that looks like a lego.

I'm having the same problem. It was working before the ICS update. I've tried the stock, Chrome, and Firefox browsers. Just shows a little box where the animated radar should be.

Solution Found: Install Adobe Flash Player 11 from Google Play. NOAA Animated Radar works just fine now.

Flash was updated just recently, might've added a fix to your problem.
