Possibly FlashPlayer does not provide support for your phones Android Operating System.

Adobe's Flash Player does not fully support all systems. It is withdrawing support on Unix and only provides basic security updates and will cease all support soon. It has already ceased support on newe versions of Android.

Here's a 2012 News article onthe subject http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19267140

There are other methods or streaming video and other ways of playing it. (Firefox is even experimenting with playing flash player content natively)
