try this borwser for flash

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.boatbrowser.free&feature=search_result

works fine for me, no crashes at all.

And i think your problem is not the flash it self but the kernel.

Trinity Kernel don't support flash properly.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
+1 (2 thumbs up) Dolphin browser was one of my favorite alternate until I discovered Boat browser, used it on rooted stock 4.1.2 and 4.2.1, stock kernel, plus franco & bricked kernel on the N7.

I used (free app) AntTeh App Manager to freeze/disable the Chrome browser on 4.2 and change Boat browser's setting to make it the default, On-demand Flash and it works 99.8% of the time so far, including Google searches. If it's still not smooth, disable the stock AOSP browser on the device, whether it's 4.1 or 4.2

For good measure, after making the changes - boot into recovery, wipe dalvik cache & restart - it doesn't hurt to clear most if not all of the saved settings.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Hi,

I have installed Boat browser and so far it seems OK, i think your right about the Trinity kernel so if the crashes continue i might check out the Motley kernel.

Cheers for your help ;)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
funny, i havent any issues playing flash videos and flash games using trinity kernel and the aosp browser.. user error maybe?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjsspape:
Yeah your right. At least for me its something that I changed that made it suddenly stop working. The only thing I do though was add that seeder apk and flash took a dump. What's really strange is like I said it'll work on Firefox sometimes and it works on puffin browser. It'll ramp up on other browsers like its gonna load but then almost like it overloads the GPU it'll freeze and crash the other browsers. What's worse is I've completely wiped formatted pushed new ROM etc and still get the same issues haha different kernel ROM combos. Nothing works but before that seeder apk it was working flawlessly
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you got rid of the seeder app and now its working? have you installed the latest flash apk?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
How can it be user error!!!

Before installing Flash browsers work flawlessly, after installing Flash browsers crash!

It does not take a genius to come to the conclusion that Flash is the problem and maybe it is conflicting with other software.

Changed kernel to Motley, i hope that sorts it out.

Cheers
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjsspape:
Nope still not working. That's the crazy thing. I COMPLETELY wiped everything then pushed a new ROM through adb. Yep got the most recent flash. Too
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
see if this helps.. in the browser settings, advanced, set the enable plug in as on demand instead of always on. also, do you use any ad blocking software? try the adfree app. ive seen browsers crash when there are many flash ads.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjsspape:
I'll try the ad free but the on demand has the same thing haha

Edit: yep that was it haha. I actually had ad free installed from my back ups but I've been forgetting to run it lately. Amazing how sometimes it can be the simplest things. Thanks man!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
lol, most the time its those simple things.. :)

---------- Post added at 02:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

flash is a problem, since it doesnt officially support our device or its software. try the adfree app also. you might be trying to view a porn site, and they typically are full of flash ads(yes, from experience).. :silly:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...zaXdTV0E#gid=0

As a person said earlier it may not be Flash but the Trinity kernel itself that does not support it, see link above.

And i need Flash to watch horse racing replays as i said in the opening post, not for porn haha.

So i have Motley kernel installed, uninstalled all browsers then installed Boat browser.

Hopefully this may solve conflicts from the various software.

Cheers
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
flash works fine on trinity kernel, as im using it and have no problems with flash. so, as i said earlier, that person is either wrong or is just user error.

Also i have Speaker problems!!!

Is this all me (user error) or is it the Nexus 7 ????

When you change the volume, you can also switch your phone to silent or normal mode. On the volume control bar at the top of the screen, tap , , or .

this is listed in the help info.on my phone i can only vibrate and ring..why
[Nokia Lumia 920] groovebiscuit:
You need to turn off vibrate in the ringtones+sounds section. When vibrate is on you get vibrate/ring options, when it's off you get silent/ring options.

When I tried to restore it to the stock firmware it was not recognized by live suit, and was recognized by my PC as a10. Would it be possible to restore it without live suit using fastboot commands?

I was playing around with trying to patch Beans 7.

I tried the Auto-patcher here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31648393&postcount=690

I tried the oldest version of auto-patcher, as well as various other versions. They all report that the ROM I was trying to patch was too old. The minimum ROM version must be 4.1.2. Beans is 4.1.1.

In any case, I don't actually know if it would patch anyway, but it would be worth a shot.

Very nice so far.

Video recording is slightly lagy at max resolution.

Hard keys gave an issue initially with then not turning on, but seemed to sort themselves out after a while.

Chrome has similar graphical glitches to other cyan roms.

Google now seems to be 100% working.

Sweep to wake seems to still vibrate when the phone is sleeping and a random button is pressed. Not really an issue though.

Panorama seems to have some preview glitches, but the final photo turns out perfectly.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] element1966:
After being together for the holidays with everyone for a week and travelling all over the place together while watching what other peoples results for coverage and speed tests were on other carriers and other smartphones, I am leaving Sprint.

I've had sprint since 2007 starting with a Palm Treo 700wx. I went from that, to a 750wx, to a Palm Treo Pro, to a temporary hiatus with a Windows Phone 7 on T-Mobile for a month, then back to Sprint with a HTC Evo Shift 4G and to my current phone; the SGS2/Epic 4G Touch.

I'll admit, I have loved playing with the previous two android phones I've had and loading tons of different ROMs, radios, PRL's, etc. I've found sweet spots and balance in them for my needs but..

My problem is, Sprints serivce has become extremely lacking while other providers move full steam ahead in their data coverage and speed offerings. Comparing just my brothers (ATT iPhone 5) and my GF's (VZW SGS3) phones to mine while they have been with me when we are travelling both around home and away on vacations has left me with a really bad taste in my mouth.

The SGS3 stays on 4G 95% of the time, the battery life is incredible, the speed tests are always returning 18-35Mbps downstream speeds wherever we go, and there are no times where the phone appears to have data coverage, but the network is unresponsive.

The ATT iPhone5 would slightly rival my 4G test results at times (when I actually have 4G coverage that is! :laugh:), but 90% of the time it returned consistent 5-18Mbps downstream tests and was locked to 4G 90% of the time when I checked the phone wherever we went.

I travel all the time and I just can't deal with Sprint anymore. Their network, mostly the data aspect of it, is unbearable. Sprints implementation of WiMAX is a joke.

TLDR. So finally, here is my question:

I have 15 months left on my current contract. I have been looking for a way out without the full $350 ETF for the past couple weeks.

I saw this thread, and someone had suggested doing what I planned on doing after reviewing the ETF policies for Sprint: They purchased a basic phone, replaced their smartphone with the basic phone, and cancelled a few weeks later. They claimed it successfully offset their ETF to the lower ETF price of a basic plan.

I have a personal plan with my single line on it.

My plan is the simply unlimited plan.

I have a LG Remarq sitting here with a clean ESN.

I plan on replacing my Epic 4G Touch with the Remarq, changing my plan to a basic $30/mo plan, use it for a week or two, and then call in to cancel service, paying the lower ETF associated with basic phones.

Has anyone else done this with success?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Censura_Umbra:
This is a great idea. I will try it out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
I believe the etf is associated with the phone you purchased when you signed the contract, not the phone you are currently using. If you signed a contract without purchasing a subsidized phone you aren't supposed to have an etf. The etf comes from a phone subsidy and is actually prorated (Sprint isnt always forthcoming about this and something charges the full etf unless you bring it up).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] element1966:
Right, this is the part I am worried about.

I figured it might not work as I had hoped since the reason my contract was renewed in May 2012 was due to the upgrade to the Epic 4G touch.

If it isn't going to work, I'll just sell off the Epic 4G Touch to recoupe some of the ETF..

Can't always have it all!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lilotimz:
I would like to just say that you complaint about "sprints implementation" is wrong. Wimax is Clearwire implementation and sprint is/was using it for 4g but are abandoning it in favor of FDD-LTE / TDD-LTE (800/1900 & 2500 mhz).

They (clearwire) deployed it wrong and ran out of money in their deployment by trying to go for the blanket coverage which is practically undoable since they were using 2.5ghz/2.6ghz BRS/EBS spectrum which is highly inferior to ATT and Verizons sub ghz (700/850) spectrum.

Furthermore, your account says you live in Miami, FL which is an active Network Vision deployment area which means they're upgrading the backhaul from their crappy T1 (low data speed.. that problem) to fiber / microwave / aav etc and installing "their" implementation of 4g which is LTE-Rel 9 equipment on 1900mhz frequency at every cell site.

Just wanted to inform you on some things before you think sprint has no future and that Vz and ATT will be forever superior. Saturation of Verizons LTE network is coming along with somewhere around 50% of data usage being LTE. This is noticeable nowadays literally everywhere as Verizons 4g LTE speeds are quickly decreasing from the >20 mbps you see from speedtests all the time to somewhere in the 4-10mbps range during peak hours and average. They may have great coverage but what they lack is density because their great coverage comes from a blanket type approach where one tower in a cluster has LTE activated so that it covers other towers around it. This ensures a faster rollout and larger coverage area in a short time frame but will falter under heavy loads. ATT will face this problem as well since they are undertaking the same type of rollout as Verizon.

This is the reason why Verizon and ATT is attempting to quickly utilize AWS spectrum for LTE to relieve the high data demand on their towers. Sprint does not have this problem with LTE 1900 on every tower, LTE 800 (deployment begins when iDen is shut down and 800mhz freq is refarmed), and LTE on the 2.5ghz BRS (Clearwire) for heavy loads in high demand areas such as cities and metros.

Anyways. Good luck in where you go and maybe check back with Sprint later when their NV program is mostly complete nationwide at the end of 2013/ early 2014.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] element1966:
Are you in the retentions department or something?

Who has been the primary shareholder and has had control of Clearwire for the past few years?

Regardless of that, why does it matter who implemented it? My complaint is about the network they are utilizing and making available to their customers. I could care less about the details.

I don't really think any other network is forever superior over another.

In fact, I never even mentioned anything about that..

I'm just noting what I have seen in my Sprint usage over the past 5-6 years ALL throughout the east coast. I used to love Sprint, but with how much I rely on a good data connection now, I can't deal with them.

My Christmas vacation was spent in Dallas. And guess what? Sprint was even worse there than when I am at home in the unobstructed, pancake state of Florida. Everytime I take trips up to Boston and New York for work, my battery drains much more quickly. Not to mention, my coverage is terrible. I've tried all of the radios for this phone. I did the same with the Evo Shift.. same terrible data coverage.

I've moved several times over the past 7 years all throughout the east coast and everywhere I have gone, my service has never been better than it has been here. Voice coverage has always been great for the most part.

My purchase point is a reliable, dependable data connection at this point.

Maybe when Sprint can satisfy my needs and lower their prices a bit I'll come back.. I'n the meantime I will be heading over to VZW for their $80/mo unlimited + 2GB data plan since I never go over 1.5GB anyways. Sure beats the $130 I'm paying now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lilotimz:
No. I'm not in the retention department nor am I affiliated with sprint. I am someone who went beyond and educated myself in what sprint is doing in the present, past, and future because of the sad state of their current legacy network and data speeds.

To answer your questions.

1. Sprint, although they own a majority share of a little bit over 50% of Clearwire, does not control them. They can surely veto things that they don't like but Clearwire is an independent entity with their own goals and aspirations. They've been "rebellious" in the past and bumped heads with sprints multiple times and is one of the reasons why SoftBank/New Sprint is buying them out. Make sure they don't get any fancy ideas.

Also. You mention the past experiences and how you're unsatisfied with it and that's exactly what I'm saying that Sprint is changing with their Network Vision project by updating their legacy backhaul to modern fiber / mw/ aav.

By the way. I wished you luck in your purchase and never told you to stay with sprint. Every persons need is different but it is always nice to inform people on things.

www.s4gru.com is where I get my information from and good luck with Verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Perilousp69:
As someone who travels a bit, I am in the same boat. I'm pretty locked in by my family account, though. Sprint's data network is awful right now. I sure hope it gets better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] element1966:
The one common thing that occurs often with Sprint that I hate the most when I am travelling is when the phone shows locked to 3G and the upload/dowload arrows are lighting up while you are trying to use google maps, the browser, or update your e-mails, and NOTHING happens!

I could be sitting at an intersection trying to figure out where I am on gmaps with 3G or 4G coverage indicated and nothing happening. I'll search for a location, it will act like it has gone through and the "Searching for ...." bubble that grays out the screen will dissappear but nothing else will happen. I'll sit there and restart the phone like a dummy at wits end and the same thing will happen afterwords. I just don't have the time to play these games anymore. I've tried all the radios, roms, prls, you name it. And I have spent plenty of time determining which radios work best for me in the SGS2. But that begs the question; why should I waste my limited free time trying to improve the reliability of my phone on a unreliable network? I've got better ways to spend my time than in constant frustration.

This has happened with my phones on sprint since the Palm Treos through all 3 of the androids I've had. No way can you point fingers at poorly designed radios in the phones. I've done everything I can to deal with the possibility of actual phone issues.. it's not the fault of the phones and I give up.

I'm sure there are plenty of places where sprint is great.. but everywhere I have been along the east coast and to TX recently, it hasn't been reliable enough for me in comparison to other major providers. I am up north and all through the east coast 10-20 times a year. And when I'm not away for work, my daily travels to customers and such can include any destination from central Florida down to the keys. It just never meets my needs wherever I typically go.

I refuse to stick around and twirl my thumbs in anticipation but I hope Sprints new rollout is a game changer for people in my situation.

I called ther customer service enough and told them how far they could shove my account up their A S S that eventually an executive service agent called and told me my account was being canceled with no ETF's.
