I've just bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 running on Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and discovered that Flash isn't supported. Is there a workaround to get Flash to play on this Tab?

Thanks

    We have a Nexus. You can download a Flash APK for Android and install it - you might need to set an option on the device to allow unsigned (or similar) installations.

    Even so, it still only actually works (on our Nexus) using the Firefox Beta browser.

    A goggle search should bring up the adobe flash player for note 10.1 .

    here is one such
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/android/11.1.115.54/install_flash_player_ics.apk

    enable flash in browser settings
    Flash gone blame Steve Jobs .

    The key part there is ICS ... Ice Cream Sandwich. Flash for Jellybean was never made, but the ICS version does still work (with the caveat of having to enable "unsigned"* installations).

    * I don't have an Android device with me right now so I can't remember the exact terminology.
