How to hack Adobe Flash onto your modern Android phone

Apple may have crushed Adobe’s mobile Flash plans with an iron fist, but the prolific ActionScript code continues to pepper websites across the net. Flash for Android was abandoned after Adobe dropped its final relese in September 2013, ending support for the platform at Android version 4.0.x.

But as much as we want to move to an HTML5 world, Adobe’s web plugin continues to be supported on desktop operating systems. Which means that if you want to experience the entirety of the interactive web on your Android device, there’s no choice but to saddle up with Flash.

Thankfully for us, a highly resourceful xda-developers member who goes by the handle “surviveland” with a brand new Nexus 5 that was unable to display Flash content. He dug through the Flash 11.1 Android app code and cobbled together a modified version that will run on Android 4.4.

This makes Dolphin browser identify itself as “Safari on Mac OS X” to websites, which is very useful as many sites will refuse to display Flash content if they think you are using a mobile browser.

While still in the Settings menu, scroll down and tap on Web Content, then Flash Player and select Always On. That’s it! You’re now all set up and ready to view Flash content on your Android 4.4 device!

For the most part, the Museum of Me Flash app worked great, but I did have issues trying to jump around the video timeline.Be aware that many Flash applications were developed for desktops only, so some functionality may not work with touchscreens. The Flash player on Android is also known to load videos and content more slowly than its desktop counterpart, and you may see additional incompatibilities for some Flash web apps.
