If you haven’t heard, as of today Adobe has blocked any future installs of Flash for Android. They didn’t, however, remove the files from their servers. And, as the book goes, if you give a mouse a cookie, he’s going to ask for a glass of milk. And the folks at MoDaCo have gone for the glass of milk by releasing a tool that will pull the Flash install files from the official servers straight to your Android phone. Who said Flash was dead?
We get the feeling that once Adobe catches wind of this they may yank the files from their server altogether, but only time will tell. For now, if you still haven’t downloaded Flash you now have a second chance to grab it before it’s gone for good.
Google Play Download Link: MoDaCo Flash Downloader
I downloaded and saved the apk on my SD card.
I did the same plus I saved a copy on Dropbox and Box. I’m going to hang on to that puppy for as long as I can.
Done. Uploaded to my GDrive as well.
From where did you get the apk?
how do you purely download it as .apk file (I’m on a PC)
nvm

its there 11.1 for Android
Thank you.
why should we save this…once adobe is gone, wont we have some other flash program?
No. Adobe owns Flash. If they take it away, it’s gone
so how would we play vids on android browsers?
There’s really not much to worry about considering how many .apk files are floating around the web.
Yup saved just in case
Just a thought…

I have it backed up on my Nexus One and Asus transformer. My Note 10.1″ that I got today, is currently downloading all of my apps from Google and it just grabbed Flash. :)
Speaking of Flash, I tried FireFox’s implementation of it out an it’s kind of funny that the only allow it to display as super low-rez pixelated content.
Anyways, lots of rambles, but I’ll be sticking with the stock Android browser for as long as possible.
If you expand the video to full screen it does look perfect. But it’s still quirky. They need to fix that.
after downloading this (epic 4g touch) all i get is a blue lego with question marks on it where videos use to be viewable, can i get some assistance?

Ok thanks that helped, but your mom didn’t appreciate it very much
Saved :-)
I downloaded it and accidentally installed it and it ruined my flash player in the default browser. Basically all I would get is a little blue lego on the screen. I was able to fix this by doing the following;
1. Clear cache and disable original browser. (performed in the APP settings)
2. Uninstall and re-install Flash using the .apk file that was downloaded.
3. Enabling the original browser and then everything worked.
Hope this helps for everyone that had their flash player corrupted by this download utility.
