Adobe Flash support will not be included in the Chrome for Android browser
Earlier today Google released the Chrome for Android Beta, allowing any device running Android 4.0 the ability to access desktop browser quality features. One thing it doesn't include, (that the stock Android browser does) is support for Adobe Flash. We already knew that mobile development for Flash would be going the way of the dinosaur, but Adobe has again stated... Read more » Chrome Beta for Android First Impressions [Video]
Now that Chrome Beta for Android has been available for a bit, I've taken some time to develop my first impressions of the application. It's obvious that the Chrome team is a separate division of Google that does its own thing, but we really like what they've done so far, especially with the tablet experience. It feels like a "real" web browser now. Enjoy the... Read more » Adobe Flash Player updated for Android 4.0
Android has always been known to be one of the few mobile operating systems to run Flash content, but that feature was initially missing from Ice Cream Sandwich. Many customers noticed this when they first got their Galaxy Nexus, but Adobe has finally updated their plug-in. Available via the Market, it should run on all the new Ice Cream Sandwich phones when they... Read more » Adobe Flash Player gets performance and security update
Adobe Flash Player, though it is slated for obsolescence, received an update yesterday. If you haven't already been notified, please head over to the Market and grab the apk. Android's Flash Player gets updated to 11.1.111.5 which admittedly does not come with any major feature updates, but does promise to improve security, stability, performance, and device...

Probably the biggest gripe surrounding the Motorola Xoom is the lack of Flash. It was an included feature when unveiled, but when launched it was nowhere to be found. Fortunately, that's about to change as today Adobe has announced Flash 10.2 beta. Available in the Android Market starting March 18th, Flash 10.2 will initially only be available for devices...

Just as quickly as Game Stop's Flash-based gaming portal Kongregate took the Android Market by storm, it was yanked from it's position, fate left unknown. In a nutshell, Google didn't like how much the app mimicked another app store. That would have been a completely valid reason if true - yes technically some games would be downloaded and stored via SD for... Read more » Kongregate Arcade hits the Android Market
When Game Stop acquired Kongregate roughly six months ago, there was good reason to believe the gaming giant was looking to become more active in the online entertainment market. After all, Kongregate is essentially an online Flash portal designed around community involvement. Well today we finally get to take a good look at where Game Stop is looking to take the...

One of the primary complaints of those who have been lucky enough to get in on Google's pilot test program for their CR-48 Chrome OS nebook has been Flash video performance. Quirks and bugs can be expected at this stage of the game. After all, those with Google's rubberized notebook in their laps have them for the sole purpose of discovering problems. And this video... Read more » Flash Player for Android receives mystery update
Flash Player 10.1 for Android received an update today, bringing the app up to version 10.1.105.7. Unfortunately, this update is not the 10.2 beta available for desktops now. In fact, there is no recent changes listed for the app, so it's not really clear exactly what the update includes. Everyone's best guess lies along the lines of bug fixes and improvements,...

It was August 16th when Flash first entered the Market, available only to users of a Nexus One. Since then, the spectrum of Flash 10.1 users has grown immensely, and Adobe's numbers reflect that: 1 million total downloads from the Android Market. As impressive as it is, the story is still bittersweet. There has been many a problem surrounding Flash for mobile... Read more »
