Would it be possible to just find the version info in the flash binary and change it in a hex editor?

Many were having issues with streaming sites, like vimeo, crunchyroll.com, hbogo, and live streaming YouTube and other sites, many of these are still on lower versions of flash but have higher certs...if we can get a port of Tweakflashver ported over to the n9/950, Flash could be much more useful to the community.

Yeah, it worked. What should I test (that is, why do you want to do this?)

playing videos on Facebook is a common thing that you can't do on the stock flashplayer on the N900, but that does work with the hex edited version number increase.
The N9's Flash plugin also can't play facebbok videos, so I'd love to see if your hex edit allows that to work now.

I posted a sort of "solution" for Vimeo here

It would be very helpful to our community to have this as we do for the N900. Let me know what you think, hopefully we can get the devs on board.
