    What tablet have you got?eg archos 10, its not usually possible to do this unless theres an update provided by the company,eg samsung, ,archos.
    The hardware may not be powerful enough to run the latest android os.
    i installed a mod on my archos to get a newer version of flash.
    see https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cloudmosa.puffinFree&hl=en

    This browser plays flash thru servers,
    even if flash is not full supported on your tablet.

    quote;
    * Adobe Flash Support
    People, especially the smartest of all, say that mobile devices can’t handle the burden of Flash, but we say otherwise. As a true believer of Think Different, we think your Internet experience should not be limited by your devices, nor by your wallet. The Puffin Browser encapsulates remote Flash technology to enlighten the mobile users to watch Flash videos, play Flash games, and tap into an endless sea of Flash content; all by running Flash on our servers. Flash performs so well that even low-end smart phones can display Flash content as smoothly as expensive devices.

    Some tablets have flash installed ,you have to check before you buy.
    Though it may not be the latest version, its usually listed in the specs sheets, eg ram,sdcard,flash
    10 etc
    Look on google play store, search flash,you may able to download a more up to date version.

    What model tablet have you got, the latest os,would need more ram, faster cpu,
    probably than your tablet ,has.
    eg dual core cpu. eg galaxy tab 1 has 512meg ram.

    My phone doesn,t have enough ram ,to run some games on google play.
    I just use the webrowser,youtube on it ,runs android 2.2,samsung mini.284 Meg ram.
    i,ve no wish to spend 300 plus euro on a phone,or tablet.
    i,ll probably buy a better phone, in 6 months,that has 512meg ram.
    ready to go samsung 70 euro approx.
    The is mini upgradeable to gingerbread.os.
    it can open about 10 tabs,websites in opera browser.

    i tried to install this but it s not installing.
    is it can be installed in 2.1 android eclair

    No, it needs 2.2,os, you have 2.1
    Maybe sell your tablet on www.adverts.ie
    ,buy one that has a more up to date version of android,
    3,or 4,
    .https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsverse.photon&hl=en.
    This won,t load on your table.
    even on my archos,with flash,10, flash is unstable,
    not all websites work,
    Or just buy windows xp,laptop,
    pentium 4,1gig ram.dvd.cdrw,drive,15inch screen.
    cost 65 - 70 euro,

    For that price, the battery will likely need replacing.

    The cpu on your tablet is probably too slow,
    eg android 4 needs fast cpu, probably 512 meg ram to run properly.

    how to check my cpu & ram
    just i want to connect my tab in to tv using hdmi, to see web tv,i can place the tab easily up on the tv, if laptop the kids may pull it down


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,184 ✭✭✭riclad


    not enough ram, to run os 4, no point in installing it anyway.on that tablet,
    MY ADVICE is buy a tablet,adverts .ie 7inch, that has os android,3,
    or buy a new tablet ,70 euro,that has mini hdmi out.
