Frash: Hack Allows Flash To Run On iPad; Will Also Support iPhone, iOS 4
Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs had posted an open letter elaborating on the reasons why Apple has chosen not to allow Adobe Flash on their platform. But that hasn’t stopped folks from figuring out a way to hack iOS to get Flash content to work on Apple’s iDevices. Comex, developer of...

bad man, im first, yea boy. this is a break thru for real
-
awesome, thats all I can say
-
Serious question: Why do I care if I can get flash on my iPhone?
-
This may be the reason that I jailbreak my phone
-
emulators and ports would be my biggest reason. Ever seen Super Mario Crossover? it's a must have!

You dont. People just want things they can't have. With html 5, flash is no longer needed anymore. Especially with upcoming technologies like smokescreen (http://smokescreen.us/), the iphone will never need to support flash.

Awesome! Can't wait! I'm so sick of Mr. Arrogant a$$ Steve Jobs telling me I cant use Flash on my iPad because he doesn't like it. I could care less if he likes it or not. It's my damn iPad that I paid $629.00 for and if I want to use Flash and deal with any of the issues then I should be able too. People keep saying that it's not a big deal and the iPad can still watch most videos on the web. That is simply not true. I have been to many many websites that I enjoy that will not load on my iPad because Steve Jobs won't allow Flash. He really is becoming a complete butt head!

It a so wonderful, news
-
THIS IS WHY I I CANT WAIT FOR AN JAILBRAKE FOR IP-4 CUZ WE LOVE FREEDOM TO DO WAT WE FEEL WIT R PHONE .. MR.JOBS KICK ROCKS
-
Ok yeah flash is sweet but bring us the new spirit jailbreak first man, god damnnn !!
-
Well, I had to overhaul 3 of my websites just to make them available in ipad. The flash thing is giving me headache... I hope someone can make a good application for flash problem..
-
I tried flash on the nexus one. Be careful what you wish for. Flash is buggy, slows the system to a snails pace and eats memory and battery life like it's going out of style.
-
Of course we miss flash! I hate visiting sites that run on flash and I cant view them on the iphone. Hope this gets to work on the iphone.
-
Who uses or needs flash these days, it's 2010, not 2001
-
i personally dont miss flash but i know some that do so good job comex ur the man
-
truly brilliant, Comex. Flash will open the door to massive amount of free movies and games. Keep up the good works, genius iphone hacking masters.
-
I do miss flash on my iPhone, often during browsing (not for flash games and stuff)
-
I'm for and against flash. I still run into flash only websites every now and then but I don't miss those annoying flash ads. Even now I can't see this YouTube video thru my iPhone. Could be due to size.
-
Clearly this would be a welcome addition. If the user can turn it on or off (like FlashBlock does for Firefox) it would be perfect.
I don't need all the flash ads, but there are times that flash is necessary. A lot of store and restaurant web sites use flash, some games and videos, etc.
Sure, Flash is CPU intensive. HTML5 is not all that much faster on my computer, possibly due to implementation, but we can only discuss what's going on now. I see no reason to deny the user the choice to run a flash movie, other than that it prevents Apple from controlling all those games.
-
I would really like to know why there is no mobile version to this site. Some pages take too long to load and writing on comments at times is a pain.
-
The iPhone/iPad community needs a little more empathy for each other. It's amazing how those who don't use flash are quick to put down those who actually need and use flash for several reasons. Cmon people... have an understanding of each others perspectives! Selfish perspectives breed ignorance, which causes unconscious maladaprive thought processes. This goes for everyone! How does that make you feel?
-
Flash is good or bad, it's user choice. iDevices don't support flash is not perfect.
Can't wait for Frash! -
@triston I bet you use it, if you watch YouTube, you use it. If you play games, you use it. Even this website has Flash on it.... You swear like flash has never received update since 2001, it's still goin strong and is doing well. So just shush. It!
-
I couldn't care less about flash. I'd rather Comex gave us a definitive 4.0 jailbreak frankly.
-
Great news! Thanks comex!
Actually we do need flash till the newest technologies (html5 so on) won't be implemented. -
yeah man thats what im saying, **** flash, bring us the new spirit jailbreak for 3gs ios4
-
I went to sleep with 37% of battery about 12am. Woke up at 10am with only 3% battery life. is this normal???????? My 3GS has been sitting in my car for about a week and still breathing !!!!! Has anybody have this same problem?
-
We dont need you. With up and coming robots like Rosie, the maid from the Jetsons. That toilet can be clean much faster. You are just a waste of AIR.
-
FlashBlock is on my list of must have add-ons.
I like flash but I want to have a way of turning on the flash content of my choice.
Without FlasBlock everything runs without a way to turn it off.I would like flash on my iPhone but I want a way to control it also. Maybe Steve Jobs should work on that compromise with Adobe Corporation.
-
do you live in you car? if you have a place to live lol, you should prolly think about plugging it in at night, just a thought. oh and do you run hundreds of apps in the background that you arnt using. check that too.
