Browser Flash on Froyo

fortesquieu · Apr 21, 2011

Since people are getting Froyo now, I think I should say this.

When I got 2.2 on my previous phone, Incredible, we all found out browser performance in some flash sites were horrendous.

So here's what you do:

Go to browser settings, set "enable plug-in" to on demand, instead of always.

What it does is stop all the flash contents to display automatically, those such as pop-up flash ads and so on.

This should expedite your browsing experience.

Is that the same as, in Opera Mobile, setting it to "Click to play" vs. "Enabled?"

After you have updated to Flash 10.2, were you able to see a green arrow pointing down? If so, just press it.

Set it to "click to play", it's essentially same as on demand.

Thanks for the heads up.
However it only works for my Skyfire Browser.
My regular stock browser will not show the green arrow just a blank.
