    Hi!

    Do you know is Adobe going to make Flash Player for Android 2.1 devices?

    Hi, You are correct, the Android must be updated to the 2.2. Now depending on whether you have it from HTC or Motorola may make a difference as you whether you received that update or not. Instead of searching for which Android has been updated and how, which can be confusing. I would contact your Carrier. They certainly would be able to advise you. Also I would go to the website of the Manufacturer and or Carrier.

    With so many different editions of the Android, Manufacturers and Carriers, this is more confusing that it should be, in my  opinion.

    Adobe has had Flash Player 10.1 available for quite some time and any holdup is with the issues I just mentioned.

    Hope that gives you some direction to take.

    Thanks,

    Hi, I know of no work around or any other version. Now keep in mind there are many "hackers" out there with many ways to "Install Flash Player on your Android" etc. However, unless this is legit, you may damage your phone and or the warranty.

    Just contact the Manufacturer or your Carrier. That is the safe way. You bought the phone and you have a right to know when it will be updated to the 2.2.

    Thanks,
