Android 2.2, code-named "Froyo," will fully support Adobe's Flash platform, Andy Rubin, Google's vice president of engineering, told The New York Times' Bits blog Tuesday.

Google on Thursday took the wraps off "Froyo," the next version of Android that's been bolstered with new speed, tethering capabilities and Flash support.

Guys,

I'm considering switching from my current iPhone 4S (that I have for like 1 year now) to a Samsung Galaxy S4... The main reasons why I'm considering this switch;

Adobe launched Flash Player 11.1 -- its final mobile browser plug-in for Android smartphones and tablets -- along with AIR 3.1.

So does the Droid Incredible version of Froyo come preloaded with Flash 10.1? When going into Market, i cannot find a Flash 10.1 app with any keyword (flash, adobe, 10.1, etc...). When trying to install a Flash apk found from google, it says the app will replace a system app. When looking the manage applications program, under the All tab there is a Adobe Flash Player 10.1 version 10.1.72.7.

Last updated - 21 Aug; rolled out after discontinuation of Flash support for Android.

Though older version seemed to have issues with Chrome browser, this one works very smooth with it. Tested on Stock F/W, Stock Kernel but Rooted @160dpi.

Description

*** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS.
