Help Viewing web pages with flash content

[iceregent]

Ok, not sure if this is the correct forum, but I have a MetroPCS LG MS690 Optimus M phone. I have the latest software update to 2.2.2 now. My freezing/rebooting issues seem to be fixed. However, I still cannot view any websites with flash content, because none of the web browsers I can install on here seem to support flash. And The firefox browsers wont install ont his phone either. I am getting frustrated, because there are numerous web sites I need to visit that run flash, and I am not sure what to do. the stand alone flash players do not work for this, as the fllash content is in the web pages, and you cannot download the flash content from the web pages and view them. Any ideas?

Its because Flash requires an Arm7 or higher processor to run. The Opt M has only an Arm6 processor.

But there is "hacked" versions of Flash they were made to work on Arm6 processors.

Yes this does work on my phone, rooted oc, and custom rom. My girl however cant get flash to work with this or any "flash support for armv6" fix, she has stock om btw.

OK, I downloaded the file, stuck it onto the phone, used a file manager and installed it, then rebooted the phone. It still just shows a placeholder where any flash content is. Is there a particular browser this needs to work with?

You need to be running a CM7 rom before you can use the flash player I posted. The flash player works good with the stock metro browser.

OK, I may be ignorant, but how am I to be "running a CM7 rom? "

So how do I "flash to CM7"?

Yes. You need to flash CWR first, do a back up of your current rom (In case of an "Rut Roh!" ) then you can flash CM7.

Problem is, I don't understand what it takes to flash cm7? or CWR
