Hope that's of some help.

I remember having a problem with flash when i got my new phone, i think this is the page i found to get it working..
Had to manually install flash player, maybe this is different for your tablet but i thought it may be useful!

i've got it more or less working on my android tablet, but after a second or so it stops streaming....
the bar underneath it is moving again.... (cashing)
somethimes it starts again for a few seconds and than again cashing....
there is only some 25% of the time moving pictures!

Whilst I've installed flash player on my Android tablet running Android 4.4.2 (following instructions liked to by M0DTS), I can't get Firefox to make use of it.

There are a couple of browsers that support flash and do run. Puffin and Photon, both available from the Android Play Store.

Puffin appears to work reasonably well though the video quality is a bit poor and it isn't possible to go to full screen mode (though you can drag the display window to resize it). Photon also works but seems a 'bit odd', though that may just be my unfamiliarity with it.

If anyone does manage to get Firefox for Android running flash under Android 4.x, I'd be very happy to hear!

Just spotted that both Puffin and Photon browsers were mentioned on this forum in the context of viewing the streamer on iPads in 2011/2012!
