[Q] how to install adobe flash to system partition?

[Guest wingphil]

Hi all,

I'm trying to install adobe flash to the system partition to save space on /data. I've tried it by moving the flash apk and libs to the /system folders.

I can see in root explorer that in /system/apps I've got com.adobe.flashplayer.apk, and in /system/lib i've got libflashplayer.so and libysshared.so.

Under settings->applications I can see that Adobe Flash Player 10.1 is present.

In browser settings, Enable plugins is set to "on demand".

But when I try a flash site that used to work, it no longer does. What am I missing?

Thanks for any help,

Phil

It seems if you leave the .so files where they were in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib, eveything works. So it looks like the app doesn't bother to check /system/lib, but goes straight to its own data folder.

Any way to remedy this? I've saved 4-5 MB on /data by moving the apk to /system, but the .so files are 8MB between them, i'd like to get them on /system as well.
