Hi Paul,

I'm working on this myself, although i am new to this device and the Android OS, so it may take me some time. If anyone else manages to do this before me then please post your method on here asap... seems like a lot of users want this.

Cheers,
Stu.

Edit: This Method does not work

1. The first step is to download flash_for_21.zip to your computer and extract the .apk file.

2. Now navigate to the market and install “Apps Installer” utility to your phone.

3. Now connect your Android phone to the computer and copy .apk file to your SD card. Make sure that it is in SD card root and not in a sub folder.

4. After this launch “Apps Installer” on your phone and follow the on screen instructions to install flash_for_21.apk file.

5. After installation is complete, simply reboot your phone and there you go!

Flash for 2.1: http://www.addictivetips.com/wp-content ... for_21.zip

Not sure if this works or not, haven't tried it myself as i haven't got the scroll yet, however this method is widely used. The only problem that may appear is the "Apps Installer" utility may not be availible on the scroll apps market!

The only flash enabled browser I have seen is Skyfire, and even that is not great as it caches the videos to its servers before streaming it to you, so for BBC iplayer for example it sees the servers location as US rather than your location UK and so the iplayer filters do not let the video stream.
