Flash Lite 2.1 for Symbian How To

Today there was a great news for Flash Lite developers. Adobe released to developers the Flash Lite 2.1 player. So if you have one of the following phones you will be able to run standalone Flash Lite content:

  • Nokia S60 3rd edition: E50, E60, E61, E62, E70, N71, N72, N73, N75, N80, N91, N92, N93, 3250, 5500, 5500 sport
  • Nokia S60 2nd edition, feature pack 3: N70, N90
  • Nokia S60 2nd edition, feature pack 2: 6630, 6680, 6681, 6682
Flash Lite 2.1

Now a couple of tips:
  1. If you have a Nokia 2nd edition and you have already a Flash Lite player installed, before installing the Flash Lite 2.1 player, uninstall the Flash Lite player and then install the 2.1 player.
  2. If you are installing the Flash Lite 2.1 player on Nokia 3rd Edition phones, you can go head and install it without problems. In any case you need to understand a couple of things.
    1. The Flash Lite 2.1 player can run only standalone Flash Lite content. So it will not replace the Flash Lite 1.1 player that these phones have embedded, but rather install in parallel. So for example the Flash Lite 1.1 player will still be available and you will still be able to view Flash Lite 1.1 content in the WAP browser.
    2. How to run Flash Lite 2.x content. When you install the Flash Lite 2.1 player, you will have a new icon named "Flash". If you click on it, it will start the Flash Lite 2.1 player. Now you can run Flash Lite content developed for 2.x and 1.x. So put the content in the Others folder. These content will be visible to both player. If you try to run Flash Lite 2.x content within the Flash Lite 1.1 player you will get an error.
Hope it was clear, in any case if someone has a question please let me know.
