Android :: Flash Shared Objects (Flash Cookies)
Sep 22, 2010
Many people don't realize that they have two kinds of "cookies" on their computer. We all know about the familiar ones that web pages can place on our PC's and which we can see and delete with our browsers.But there's another more insidious kind which can be placed on your computer via Flash. These are called Flash Shared Objects, or sometimes "flash cookies" and they were disigned to provide inter-session persistency but are, in practice, used the same way cookies are. On a PC they're found in C:Documents and Settings***user***Application DataMacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjects and/or C:Documents and Settings***user***Application DataMacromediaFlash Playermacromedia.comsupportflashplayersys. They are a huge privacy violation.Browsers do not normally delete these although you can get a plugin for Firefox that does.My Question: Now that Android supports Flash, how do we get rid of these things from our Android devices?

An Android app I am building requires web authentication for users to make data calls. In Adobe AIR and later the iPhone, we did this by rendering a login page in a webview-equivalent page and setting a cookie when the user signs in. Subsequent data calls use the same Cookie Jar and so are seen as authenticated.
In the Android version, I authenticate the user using a WebView and then once thats done, I make a data call using DefaultHttpClient, however I cant seem to load the data on the second call.
Is there some cookie gotcha I am missing? I imagine the HTTPClient and WebView would share the same Cookie space.

I know Flash 10.1 is technically a browser plugin but has anyone figured out a way to play .FLV files (offline)? Tried opening a .FLV file through Estrongs and then selecting the video option but it would not play

All the new features sites said Flash 10 was part of Driod 2.2. 2.2 was pushed to my phone overnight and I installed it. However when I go to the Adobe Flash showcase, it says I don't have flash installed. So I search the market place and do not see flash as a download. Is this just something that will come later? I really don't read up on Driod all the time so I don't know all the news, just a regular user.

I have gotten both the Flash Player and Flash Lite APK's, and I have been trying to install them on the Droid. Flash Player refuses to install on stock 2.1. Flash Lite installs, but after install I can not connect to the internet (Nothing connects, Skype, market, random app, browser.)
So I wanted to know if anyone wanted to do some testing with them, to see if you can get them running on the ROM you are running. Maybe we will be able to make fun of iDevices earlier, because Droid Does what iDont
Flash Lite: FlashLitePlugin.apk
Flash Player: FlashPlayer.apk

I was quite excited to have flash on my mobile devise and as I have an unlimited subscription to Lovefilm I was looking forward to watching the on demand movies for free. But I was disappointed when I was met by the message "does not support this type of flash". Is there an update or an app I can use? Lovefilm uses Flash Player 10.

Provide the necessary link if I have missed a thread for this topic;
1] I presume Flash Lite is shipped & working with the Legend...?
2] Any news on 'full fat' Flash 10.1 support? Adobe seem [?] to suggest a snapdragon processor is required, is this still the case?
Will we ever see Flash 10.1 on the Legend?

I'm searched adobe and android developers sites, but can't find any details on this.Is it possible to use Flash as a part of my app? E.g. like a widget/GUI element? Or it's integrated in browser only and can't be simple accessible?I know, Adobe AIR apps are supported as standalone .apk. So it must be some API/SDK (from Google) to connect with Flash player.Is there any details, how to program it (more clear: launch swf from my app and interact with it)?

The FAQ mentions a method of passing objects around activities. (It is not clear to me): "A HashMap of WeakReferences to Objects. You can also use a HashMap of WeakReferences to Objects with Long keys. When an activity wants to pass an object to another activity, it simply puts the object in the map and sends the key (which is a unique Long based on a counter or time stamp) to the recipient activity via intent extras. The recipient activity retrieves the object using this key.".................

I have an application that have a Google map on Google Android 1.5 since we have been working on the application for a long time, we are not in stage of upgrading to the newest framework, so we are using 1.5. Now, I have map locations that are dynamically generated and drawn on the map at run-time to visualize some streams, Up to this point the application is working fine, Now my problem is that I am trying to filter the objects ( addresses) to visualize only the on-screen ones. I do NOT want to visualize the addresses that are off-screen. The way I am trying to do this is to check the screen-coordinates of each object (address) before visualizing it, then it the coordinates (x,y) more than (0,0) and less than (320, 460). I should visualize it. I am trying to use this approach, but it is not working for some reasons, I have tried many posts but could not understand why, there must be something missing somewhere that I am not aware of.

I'm a Flash developer trying to run Flash apps inside Android/HTC Hero. AFAIK, there's no official Adobe Flash Player for Android and I know the Flash player that is in the Hero is HTC's, but the information out there is really scarce.
I've managed to create an app that runs SWF files following this tutorial:
http://www.flashmobileblog.com/2009/08/12/flash-development-with-andr...
I have a some technical questions (why it only runs on landscape mode, any chance to test Flash apps in the emulator, how can a Flash app communicate with the Android app it's embedded in), but I'm not sure this is the right place to ask.
To wrap up, has anyone on the list any info regarding Flash and Android? Is this something the Open Handset Alliance could sort out with Adobe (via the Open Screen Project) to release a Flash player within all Android devices and not only HTC's?

I was browsing the android market and I found that Flash Player 10.1 was one of the apps for download on there. I was wondering if this was different from version of flash that came with the 2.2 froyo update. Is this download necessary or not needed cause its the same as the flash update with froyo?

I'm looking at appBrain and it says there is a flash update available. but when I click on it it tells me that the item cannot be found. I'm assuming this is because flash app is not found on the market. so how do I go about getting this update?

I'm running 2.2 on my debranded Orange HTC Desire in the UK and assume that I have Flash player working but it's not listed in settings > applications. App Brain has it down as in need of update but I can't find it to check the version I have, and when I ask AppBrain to do the update it takes me to the Market page which doesn't find Flash to dl (US only I assume). Before I grab and install one of the .apk files can anybody tell me how I find out which version I currently have (or whether I have it at all)?

I want to write a small application in Android 2.2 to play .swf and .flv files that are stored on SD card. How to I do it ? Does Android 2.2 already support some library functions /API's which can be imported and used to play the .swf/.flv files ?

I might have missed something, but how do we get flash working on the new 2.2 emulator? The sites I've tried don't work (eg BBC), and when trying to go to flash install site, i get rerouted to a market url for com.adobe.flashplayer (which obviously won't work on an emulator). So is flash being delivered as a market app? And if so how do we get it on an emulator.

Title pretty much sums up my question. I was wondering if there was any way to block flash ads with the default mobile browser? I know you can make them load on demand or, using Dolphin HQ, block some aspects of them using Ad block, but I was wondering if there was any way of blocking them outright. Please excuse me for not searching the forums very thoroughly before posting; the forum's search function isn't very mobile friendly.

I'm told that the android 2.2 OS uses Flash 10.1...correct? Can someone explain what the enhancements in 10.1 Beta 3 are? I've read that it's for android 2.2. Since I have already installed 2.2 on my EVO, are there any benefits to the beta version? Has anyone installed this as of yet? and what improvements do they see.
