Flash from Android Devices Ported to iPad

Out of all the news we have posted so far about Flash being ported to iPad, we have now come across something bigger than what has happened earlier. The guy (Comex) who managed to port Flash on iPad earlier has strike again, and this time he has managed to run real Flash content on a jailbroken iPad.

The port or hack is dubbed as “Frash”, and it relies on the flash port for Android devices that runs on iPad in compatibility mode, but still works quite smoothly and good enough to enjoy some good flash experience on your iPad.

Flash on iPad

Here’s the youtube description of the video given below that describe how this port of flash on iPad has been made possible.

Frash is a port of the Adobe Flash runtime for Android to the iPhone, using a compatibility layer, by comex ( http://twitter.com/comex ). Frash can currently run most Flash programs natively in the MobileSafari browser. Frash currently only runs on the iPad, but support for other devices (3GS+ only due to technical restrictions) is planned, as well as support for iOS 4.

A release is planned for when Frash is stable. Developers are welcome to join the effort at http://github.com/comex/frash – fork it and send a pull request with your patches.

No word so far on its release date. Guess Comex won’t launch Frash unless its more stabilized and is completely bug free. We will post the download link and a complete guide on how to use it shortly after its public release.
