Here is an update: the flash 11 will work for about a year. :mad:

Then everybody will join a new thread: "When can we expect flash 12 update? :eek:

fennec does not have the official version of flash player at all ,not yet .ARM versions of flash player are not freely available cuz of licensing issues .meego UI is very much limited than maemo5 but the current rage from devs is too much for meego and ye nokia support still with no luck .ciao

Um yes we know that, that is why we're waiting for jolo to give us an update.

Huh?
It's debatable whether it's limited, work-arounds can/will be found to loosen things.
Besides, that has nothing to do with the topic of this thread.

C'mon Jolo, please tell us what's happening!!

Don't ignore us, that's not cool, esp. when 8wks ago you were sure things are looking +ve.
Don't drag this out anymore, if it's fallen-through just tell us!

Thank-you.

lol.. just give it up i guess..

jalyst 2011-09-13 07:07

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Nope, not until they have the decency to give us an update.
Doesn't have to be the update we want to hear...
But the polite thing to do is to close-it-out properly, not leave us hanging.

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
You'll get the update when the phone is out...

jalyst 2011-09-13 07:24

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Not good enough, jolo was going to let us know before then.

In all fairness....
We should have had the "update" when it was revealed in June.

By that stage we should have at least had official word that:

"Yes it's coming, either for launch or the 1st major update"
OR
"We've no plans to offer flash 10.x/11.x for the N9 launch, or with future updates"

I don't have a planned date, as we need to get the implementations certified, but I am feeling positive about this.

jolo... can we PLEASE get come clarity on this now!?
It's dragging on way too long....

If we still don't have a yes or no answer at this late stage.
How can we possibly er on the side of positive thinking.

when u buy it and it doesnt have it and u rant, the community will say that u didnt do enough research. go figure

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
I just think it's pretty uncool to ignore people...
Esp. since it was made out that attempts were being made to deliver something.
The very least one could do, is inform us that it hasn't been successful.
Seems like even that's asking for too much...

Markosib 2011-09-30 07:02

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
perhaps no news is good news!

jalyst 2011-10-01 06:49

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Nope, silence is usually non-delivery... :/
In my experience over the years with Maemo/MeeGo, & soon Meltemi/Tizen.
Very uncool to not at least update people with the the sad news.

2mth since last post here, & once in "8yrs" @developer.nokia.com?
Geez... You're right, probably moved on... :(
Would've been nice for whomever took over, to let us know what the hell's happening.

Frappacino 2011-10-02 15:07

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
if you have no news, it means nothing is being delivered duh - how can it be otherwise ?

jalyst 2011-10-03 07:19

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Well... that's what I've kinda been asserting, duh.
Doesn't change the fact that it's not very cool, not updating everyone.

erendorn 2011-10-03 07:35

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
But I really think that no one knows that you are waiting for updates, nothing else.

jalyst 2011-10-04 04:04

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
you're probably right, but I've no idea how to get in touch.
So I guess we just let this thread die....

gerbick 2011-10-04 04:10

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Flash just more than likely wasn't meant to be. But as of right now, it's not on WP7 either despite me anticipating it was going to be there as well.

Blame whomever you wish - most folks will say Adobe, I blame the people that don't license it.

jalyst 2011-10-05 09:43

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Yeah everyone but Nokia seems to be supporting Flash 11 this time round.
iOS, BB, Android.... sigh :(

[cynical]
Nokia prolly will end-up supporting flash for WP, just to make N9 look even more crap

If I get a response (I doubt it) I'll update this thread.

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
Well, this might be positive news, or it might mean nothing
https://twitter.com/#!/j_loughney/st...26492466139136
But in the context of what Konttori's been saying, it does sound 'mildly' positive.

that sounds pretty good honestly.
"working on it" > "no comment"

erendorn 2011-10-20 22:58

Re: Is this true that the n9 will have flash with fennec ?
 
What I like with Nokia and the Maemo line, is that they have two ways of tackling issues:
  • They don't talk about it, and they don't do it
  • They don't talk about it, but amazingly it still gets done

Although to be fair, the same versions with "they talk about it" also exist.

So let's see how this goes, it's not lost :)

Yeah & then later Konttori graduated from "no comment" to "maybe flash".
(something along those lines, same blog-post, in the comments IIRC)

Sigh... the painful mystery will have remain for a bit longer!!
Hopefully we'll definitely know in a month...
I'm assuming it's definitely not coming at this point, it's easier that way.

I just took the time to read the whole thread. congrats jalyst you have successfuly scared off jolo from maemo.org. pretty soon jolo wont even bother with twitter. so Stop harrassing jolo. Now boys and girls i guess, we strike the heart of this problem......adobe. I say lets open up a thread massive on their forums with the cast and crew of maemo and meego forums ofcourse and force them to get nokia to accept flash. in all seriousness maybe pushinh adobe might bring us some luck as well. i like jalysts idea of paying for flash by the end user. so lets tell adobe so. they might like the idea. who is with me????

Get a life, I've done nothing of the sort. If you'd read all the posts properly.
You'd know he's very rarely visited this forum in the past, nor in more recent times.
In fact, for the past 11-weeks he's not logged-in at all, & hence not even seen the posts I've made.
I've been one of a handful of users that's proactively tried to determine the status of this issue.

I don't deny I've become somewhat whiny at times, but I'm far from alone there.
In many other threads the issue is "incessantly" raised...
Which is why I've tried to find-out more about it's status in this more appropriate thread.
And besides, I fail to see the logic that my *****ing has "scared him away".
It matters little as far as an end results goes....

It's got nothing to do with Adobe....
And everything to do with Nokia management deciding whether they want to fork-out the $$.
I doubt approaching Adobe directly & suggesting they remodel their licensing just for maemo/meego users will work.
It can't hurt to "have a crack" I guess, but 1st we should let Nokia<->Adobe discussions take their course.
It's clear something is still ongoing, hopefully we'll now sooner rather than later if it was successful or not!

Sorry Jalyst. I was not really accusing you dude. I was just kidding...my failed attempt at humor it seems. I was just playing on the fact that Jolo disappeared and you were also asking him questions so it must have been that he was hiding from you. Sorry
no offence intended.
