Flash Player not working ever since 4.0.3

hello all

so upraded my phone/xperia ray to 4.0.3 last month and now to 4.0.4 but flash player is not  working in the default browser....all i see is the green little arrow where there is supposed to be a video or an ad or w/e. i have tried factory reset...phone repair...even mem card format to no avail. if anyone has any solution do share.

P.S flash player works on dolphin browser.

that's odd try settings -> applications -> manage applications -> all -> flash player and browser, clear cache and uninstall updates

aside from that not at all unless you take it to Sony's repair center, also open the browser -> menu and check the settings

Flash support has been disabled in ICS ( by default), you will have to download adobe flash player from google play in order to make it work
