It's mentioned in the links which you have shared, you need to modify the master page and have to remove Style="display:none" attribute also remove "Visible=false" from PopupMenu. This will show breadcrumbs on your pages. If you can't find the snippet mentioned in the link then you have to add it from snippet gallery. 

<div class="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox" style="display:none;">
<SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaBreadcrumbDropdown" runat="server">
    <SharePoint:PopoutMenu
        Visible="false"
        runat="server"

Change this to

<div class="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox" >
<SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaBreadcrumbDropdown" runat="server">
    <SharePoint:PopoutMenu
        Visible="true"
        runat="server"

I am sharing few more links with your for more clear understanding:

Can you be more specific as to what didn't work?  Try this one, it just has you copy the Seattle master page and change one thing.

Hi thanks for the replay,

I had followed the same steps, even though its not working for me.

I created a new blank master page.

And copied the code of Seattle.master page to new blank master page. 

And modified the code as below. And set this new blank master page as default master page.

 

<div class="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox" style="display:none;"> <SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaBreadcrumbDropdown" runat="server"> <SharePoint:PopoutMenu Visible="false" runat="server"

CHANGET TO

<div class="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox" > <SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaBreadcrumbDropdown" runat="server"> <SharePoint:PopoutMenu Visible="true" runat="server"

Hi,

Knowing how difficult it is, navigating in SharePoint,we aimed to come-up with a solution too. Finally after months of efforts this weekend we have released FlyView that not only solves the breadcrumb issue but also offers a other helpful features too, to navigate SharePoint sites without involving a lot of page loads and 'working on it..' displays.

FlyView is a free chrome and firefox extension that detects a Sharepoint site and render a dynamic global menu (including breadcrumb) on top of the page. It allows you to explore the entire site collection without even having a single mouse click. Doesn't require any server side deployment or SharePoint Designer coding, it is simply a client side plug and play add-on. 

FlyView for SharePoint

Hope it will help the SharePoint community
