How would you know if the Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000 is on CDMA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THS1989:
Hello XDA.

I have read that rooting will void warranty.

1 ) Can the Galaxy Nexus be UN-rooted later on so the warranty isn't void ?

2 )Also, my galaxy nexus get's pretty hot at the top around the camera lens area. Is this normal ???

3 )I am considering getting the case-mate tough case. Could this be dangerous for the phone ?? ( the silicone / hard shell would keep the heat trapped in I imagine)

Sorry if I am repeating any questions. Thanks for any answers.

Cheers.

Ya rooting and unlocking ur phone could possibly void ur warrenty but my nexus 1 was bootloader unlocked and i sent in for warenty no issue , my nexus s agn bootloader unlocked samsung fixed touchscreen issue no questions asked , i think u can relock the bootloader on the GN ( i may be wrong ) but i wouldnt worry bout it to much they built this phone knowing we were going to unlock it and ....they even gave us factory image http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html who dose that unless they dont care :) . I unlocked mine with in 10 min of having it if i need warenty ill wipe install factory rom witch will remove root but not relock bootloader and will ship to.samsung and wknt think twice bout them giving me hard time . Hope that helps . Both my galaxy s 2 's euro model and att get warm 104° around camera , so dose my skyrocket and now my GN all bout 104° with use so it has to be normal since all bout the same phone ,and no i also have case mate on all my phonrs no issues
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RMatt1992:
1) Yes. And the bootloader can be relocked. Please note that every time you lock and unlock the bootloader your phone gets wiped.

2) I have felt the warmth after working the phone hard. Nothing I'm concerned with though.

3) I have an Otterbox Defender series case and it has not caused an issue for me yet.

I would like to transfer photos from camera to phone...It would be awesome if I could do this while on vacation.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Where would you even find the correct usb cable if the phone could read it. Also i dont know about your camera but mine uses a sdmicro card just like the phone does. So i could just pop the card out of the camera put it in the phone, copy the files to emmc and then pop out the cameras sd and replace the phones sd. If your camera uses a regular sd card you could buy a microsd and an adapter to use in your camera.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabeakster:
So as an answer to my question, that is a... NO, USB host has not been developed for the Inc.

Thanks for the suggestions, but they aren't what I am looking for, not enough speed (sd card adapter) and emmc isn't big enough to help much, anyway. The reason is I don't want to waste money on more high-speed cards, or a computer. I just need decently large space to store, when I get back to the hotel and the end of the day.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Yeah without buying new cards or a pc your outta luck. Unless you have one of those expensive cameras that uses wifi to upload to photobucket or flicker etc.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
It's doable yes, but I'm not sure how to test it without the hardware/cabling and software would have to be written for it as I don't think it's built into the API. Honeycomb does support it.

For gingerbread, you need a usb host driver at least and not sure after that.

Long answer, it can be done but so far no one has done it. Short answer, not likely unless someone can do the necessary coding.

EDIT: And, does there even exist a usb cable between phone and camera? Maybe but that's not really my expertise.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabeakster:
I could certainly do the cable myself (might not be pretty), but the driver/coding is what I hoped somebody else had done :)

[Verizon Droid Charge] stephenjya:
So, I know that the ROM Gummycharged has several different lockscreens to choose from and Humblecomb's default lock screen is the sliding tabs. But if you're on the Stock GB 2.3.6 or Infinity ROM, and the only lock screens to choose from are the puzzle screen and the glass unlock, is there a way you can go into the framework and program something like the icecream sandwhich lock screen or the gingerbread tab slider unlock screen? I am aware there are programs out there like WidgetLocker and stuff, but I don't like the amount of CPU it takesup and it always messes with my other apps like handcent.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] chrisgriner:
This thread was created to verify and promote the SuperOneClick rooting method that worked for me. I purchased a YP-G1 SGP 4.0 from Amazon recently and found enough hints on what to try for gaining ROOT.

All credit for this method goes to CLShortFuse and his SuperOneClick process.

There may be other steps to get this running, but below is what I did and it worked.

1. Enable USB Debugging.

2. Connect YP-G1 to PC, mount storage.

3. Locate Samsung Kies install on phone storage, install Samsung Kies.

4. Reboot after install.

5. Open Kies, run the update. (Kies never successfully connected to the YP-G1. I believe this was just to get drivers installed.)

6. Extract SuperOneClick to a folder on your PC's HD. (I chose a folder with no spaces in the name. Not sure if it matters.)

7. Unmount storage from the phone's notification bar.

8. Launch SuperOneClick.exe.

9. Click ROOT on SuperOneClick application on the PC.

10. Sit back and wait. It takes quite a while with mandatory 40s pauses.

This method may include steps that are not actually needed, but it is what I did and rooting the YP-G1 was successful. I will try to update the steps if I found a way to take out a few steps.

User etrnldrk reported that the update to Kies was not necessarily.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] etrnldrk:
You don't need to update Kies to get this to work. The drivers installed just fine for me with the version included on my player.

Good to hear this method was attempted on a 5" player. I really like this device and since I bought it for my Niece as a Christmas present, I might pick up the 5" for myself.

I've not had to process root again on the device, so I don't have much to update yet. Sounds like the Kies Update step was not needed, so thanks for reporting that.

Best media player/mp3 player Ive ever had/used.

I have the 4.0, and a friend of mine has the 5.0,

and the 5.0's screen does not look nearly as good as the 4.0!

Also,

Ive only owned this for a couple/few weeks now,

and have not rooted it yet...

But am sorely tempted to do so..

However, I have no windows OS on any of my machines,

So what's the best route for someone on a Linux machine, with no access to windohs?

Really don't want to have to use an emulator to run a .exe file. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lardman:
I used SuperOneClick on my UK 5.0 and it worked fine to obtain root.

I also said yes to installing busybox permanently, which was perhaps a mistake as it segfaults when I try to run it.

I believe this is because the /system partition didn't have sufficient space for the binary (it had ~650kb space remaining when mounted rw after the su binary was installed), so it has been truncated (and hence doesn't run well ;))

This leads to a problem when trying to install busybox from anywhere else too, and to solve this I had to grab a static busybox binary (from Debian iirc) place it in /data and create a symlink to /system/xbin/busybox (need to remount the partition rw temporarily). I didn't bother to create the symlinks, but probably should do.

Does anyone know if this works for Android 2.3.6 on the US Player 4.0? I've been looking everywhere and can't find anything for 2.3.6 (which apparently patches the zergRush exploit).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Flash either a custom rom or a custom kernel and then it is supposed to work.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Cokemonkey11:
The OP should be updated to reflect that the root won't work on 2.3.6 until a custom rom/kernel is installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
Which custom rom or kernel? I've been trying to figure out how to get started rooting my US 4.0 player with 2.3.6 and it's proving incredibly confusing. Is there anywhere that lists a step by step process?? I know I need to unlock the bootloader - can't find any specific info on that for my particular player. I know I need to flash a ROM or Kernel, but can't find specific info on which one works for 2.3.6 for the YP-G1. I just can't seem to find any real useful info on how to proceed - could anyone throw me a bone?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
First, you don't have to unlock any bootloader period. As far as the custom kernel goes, the only one that works well is TerraSilent. Because mostly everybody already switched up to a custom rom, GB was pretty much left up. I would recommend that you update your device when you'll have flashed a custom kernel or rooted your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
oh man, thanks a lot for responding. Ok, my primary goal is simply to use voodoo sound. That's why I got the SGP 4.0 in the first place - originally I had a 3.6 player and realized that voodoo is not compatible with that one. I thought I would simply install steve's kernel 3.0 and be ready to go (I still don't understand if I need a ROM with it, or can just use stock that's already on there because the thread I see on it calls it a kernel and ROM like it's included. also does installing this automatically root the device or is that a separate step??). I think TerraSilent includes voodoo sound, but if I can avoid any extra steps (i.e. upgrading the OS beyong Gingerbread) then I would like to avoid that unless you think there is a very good reason to go through the trouble. I've used GB before on the 3.6 and thought it was fine and I could do whatever I needed. I just want to keep the same thing and use voodoo sound on the 4.0 player now. I'm just having trouble figuring out exactly what I need to download, and what order to install it, and whether it is in fact compatible with 2.3.6 (most things I've found seem to work with 2.3.5, but not the version I have).

I guess in conclusion, in order to use voodoo sound on my YP-G1 US version with 2.3.6, can I just install Steve's Kernel 3.0? i've asked in forums whether it works well with 2.3.6, but haven't gotten a response yet. any advice on how to proceed would be real helpful. thanks,.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Woow Steve's kernel, it's been a long time. XD You would definitely be better off with Terrasilent as it was made for 2.3. I believe Steve is still made for 2.2. AFAIK TerraSlient already comes in a tar so you only have to flash it with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
Ok, thanks for the suggestion. So if I understand this finally: I need to get this Terrasilent ([KERNEL][CWM] TerraSilent 1.3.5 for Galaxy 4.0 (YP-G1) -- thread is: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1643384 ---- ?? This works with 2.3.6 I assume and comes with voodoo sound if I understand properly as well. It sounds so easy....

Wouldyou mind double checking the steps I need to take: is this all I need to do?

1) download TerraSilent_usa_1.3.5.tar from https://www.mediafire.com/?cf9aw48dnmiqi

2) Download ODIN (from ??) and use that to flash the tar (I hope this is process isn't too daunting)

(I assume that during this process my galaxy 4.0 player will be rooted automatically as the kernel is installed?)

3) load voodoo sound control (my understanding is that this is necessary after the kernel is installed)

Does this sound more or less like I understand the process?

I know I need to get USB drivers installed - I downloaded a zipped .cab file which are supposed to be the latest drivers, but have no idea how to install the .cab file or if I should unzip it, etc. (there are a bunch of files - none of which are an executable install as far as I can tell).

Do I need a ROM or anything after all this? Again I'm satisfied with gingerbread.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Yep this is all you need to get your setup working. Assuming you're using Windows, here's the USB drivers you'll need:

http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/view.do?v=T000000117#none

Here's the Odin you'll need as well:

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2ZcXCdM0CVJS196MFRtaUhfSUk/edit?usp=sharing

You will have to put your device into Download mode in order to flash. If you want more help concerning this, here's a tutorial I've made a bit ago regarding Odin/Heimdall (You will need to check the OG SGS section):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922461

The player isn't rooted automatically upon flashing the kernel, though it is insecure so you can root it with any method you've tried before and it should work. After this, you should be correct as far as your setup is concerned with Gingerbread.

Hope it helps! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
Thanks alot. I think I'm on my way. About the rooting bit, though: I've actually never rooted my device. Could you recommend a way to root my player? I have tried to find definitive info on it and it would seem that most or all of the methods out there are not reliable for a device using 2.3.6 (superoneclick and others I checked - most of them seem to work only for 2.3.5 etc. accord. to thread posts I read). I have posted questions about which method to use but have not gotten a response.

Also do I flash the kernel first or root first? I think I do the kernel first right? Thanks again for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Flash the kernel first and use superoneclick to root after. It should work because your kernel is insecure.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
ok thank you! I'll take your word for it because I remember reading some things about people having trouble with 2.3.6 using superoneclick, but maybe installing that kernel first will prevent those issues. Now I assume I should make a nandroid backup at some point. I guess the best I can do is do it after the kernel flash and root - though I'd prefer to backup an original kernel/ROM. I don't think I'm willing to go through any more steps though to root before the kernel since it sounds like it would take some additional steps to get rooted before installing the kernel. I guess I'll give it a go and come back if problems. thanks for helping.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] klemmaniac:
root worked with 2.3.6

Well in case this helps anyone else trying to do what I want to I did get the thing rooted just now using Kingo Root from kingoapp.com. Seems to work so far with 2.3.6. I did not install Terrasilent kernel, because I just started finding threads that it caused some people's players to run slow which were using 2.3.6. I'm not sure if I should just use Steve's Kernel 3.0 since maybe it would be more compatible with 2.3.6. I don't know. This is more complicated than I was hoping it would be.

In any case, I need to make a nandroid backup I suppose - I think I need CWM to do this? I see it's included in a lot of the kernels, but I was thinking since everything works now I'd like to make a nandroid with stock ROM/Kernel to go back to, but I'm finding it difficult and confusing to find a standalone CWM and method for my device (YP-G1 Us version with 2.3.6). If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

I've found the ROM Manager app, but it's saying that I need a kernel that is compatible with CWM - I assume I need to find this now since I still have stock kernel?? Is there a stock kernel I can use that is compatible with CWM? I also found TWRP which may be easier? Do I need a custom ROM to use that? If I get Steve's Kernel or Terrasilent that uses CWM built in - will that conflict somehow? Can anyone give me a massage? time for a beer.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
The way these devices are made don't have a separate recovery partition like the newer devices do. To have CWM, you must flash a custom kernel in order to get it working. Terrasilent did have some issues with slowing down but in the end, it is the only kernel I'll recommend for 2.3.6. If you want to backup, I know there was a thread from klin1344 regarding how to backup your partitions, though you still need CWM to backup them.
