Updated to ICS: Flash Player No Longer Works?

left4dead · August 6th, 2012, 09:31 AM

Since ICS update (non-rooted), I can no longer watch videos on the stock browser. Getting a message that says "Flash Player is not installed." However I do have FP v11 installed from the Play Store but that message keeps displaying whenever I try viewing a stream (ie Justin.tv).

Never had this issue previously with GB, just when I updated to ICS.

Any suggestions?

Enable flash in your browser settings, it is turned off by default

I've got the same problem and I'd like to turn on flash player, but where the heck are my browser settings ? I use the stock Google browser

I enabled the Flash Player plug-in but video streaming is TERRIBLE on ICS. Super laggy, choppy and constantly freezing. I NEVER had this issue with GB when trying to view Justin.tv.

I even tried other browsers (Skyfire, Opera, Dolphin, etc) and getting the same issue as well.....again which did not occur with GB previously.

I have alreasdy done a factory restore/default as soon as ICS was installed on my device.

I have DISABLED a bunch of stock applications via Settings > Apps > All....but nothing I can think of that relates to video playback or browser compatibility.

Suggestions?
