Android Browser (STOCK) AOSP Browser

Hello everyone,
I love Chrome but I hate that's its not flash enabled.
I have been using Puffin for a weeks now to watch my videos, but the most annoying thing is that I cant fast forward. If I try and seek ahead, I will get an error and have to start all the way from the beginning.

Also, when i am watching a video and I try to click on the full screen Icon, it wont do anything, but this separate internal full screen icon will appear on the top right. As soon as I do that, my seeking ahead capabilities are over.

I used to live the stock browser in my Galaxy S2. It could do everything.

I found out that this new browser is stock (click here for info). When I installed it, the movie wont play even when I have flash installed.

I read reviews and it seems like it is working with flash, I just dont know how to enable it.

Please help.

welcome to AF!!!!!

not sure on that browser...never heard of it.

what phone do you have?

you can always install the flash apk.....just google it and you will find many links for it. you will need a file manager to locate the file once you move it to the sd card or your phone to install it.

One thing to remember is that the stock S2 browser is not the stock AOSP browser. "Stock" just means "what comes with the phone", and on an S2 that would be the Samsung browser. So calling something stock doesn't mean it has the same features as the stock app on a different phone.

I believe that Boat browser still works with Flash, if you want to give that a try.
