I think the plugin is too old for this version of chromium. While all my ARM devices are headless, i do use freshplayerplugin-git on my x86 hardware to get pepper flash to work in firefox. Should work on arm too.
So to summirize
Install firefox
Install chromium-pepper-flash
Install freshplayerplugin(-git) from aur

Somebody from the community with access to chremebook with chromeos needs to step up and update chromium-pepper-flash.

No luck there either. I was able to install freshplayerplugin by adding armv7h to the PKGBUILD and it seemed to install fine, I even see flash on the plugin list after installing, but flash content comes up with a solid black screen. I also tried the same with freshplayerplugin-git after uninstalling the freshplayerplugin and got the same results. Like you said, I think chromium-pepper-flash is the weak link.

@moonman: Thank you for your recompiled version, you saved my day. Was using the last working version from ARM repo until the icu library problem arose. With your version everything works like a charm with no need to preserve specific version of any package except Chromium.

It's still not working on my Tegra K1 Chromebook.

Does anyone know when this is going to be fixed?

Is anyone able to provide a working build or pkgbuild for the latest version of chromium?
unfortunately moonman's build no longer functions:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '/usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.56: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
')

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('joao', 'I')s anyone able to provide a working build or pkgbuild for the latest version of chromium?

Tried building with "-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=1" as moonman previously hinted, but it seems to produce the same problematic package that are in the repos.

The browser starts, but immidiately hangs and dies due to "Out of memory". This is the output of a typical session:

How did you pass that flag?
Chromium is tricky and you need to append "-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=1" to "-Drelease_extra_cflags=" line.

If you or anyone else is having this problem downgrading to icu-56.1-2 should fix chromium but it may screw up other things that require icu.

If you had that version working before you should be able to find it in your pacman cache.
So you should be able to just:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/icu-56.1-2-armv7h.pkg.tar.xz')

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('moonman', 'H')ow did you pass that flag?

I did it by appending it to the "_chromium_conf" list in the PKGBUILD from github, so likely it had no effect then. I'll try adding it to the "-Drelease_extra_cflags=" instead and see if that makes any difference. Thanks!

I tried compiling it again but my odroid U2 has given up it seems. No response. Will try again later
