PIN required?

Ok, I have something weird going on...and I've read the thread. I just used this tool to root my Player 5 running 2.3.5 and everything seems to have worked fine, but after the device rebooted for the last time, it now wants a PIN to unlock it and there was no PIN assigned to it before the root process. Any help available? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] My1xT:
get into an adb with SU rights (for example in CWM

and delete the .pin in /system .

I have no idea what you just said...lol...sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] My1xT:
OK

Question:

do you have CWM?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] wmaudio:
I'm not sure what CWM is. I've rooted my Android phones and have a good bit of experience with flashing via Recovery, this is my first Player device.

---------- Post added at 05:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 AM ----------

If you're referring to ClockWorkMod recovery, I already tried to go into recovery on the device and wipe user data, but then it asks for a PIN there as well. Unless this tool installs a custom recovery, then the stock recovery is what'll be there as all I've done is use this tool. That's partly why I'm so confused. Why is there a PIN required now? There was no PIN set before rooting with this tool.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] My1xT:
I dont really know but iit could be that it somehow just happened...

there is an ODiN way to flash CWM out there. with that you can get a rooted ADB without problems and from there you can delete the pin.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] wmaudio:
Okay, I will give that a shot. Thank you for your advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] My1xT:
when you have CWM on the S Wifi/Player and a working ADB on your PC then you reboot into CWM get into mounts and storage and mount the system.

reply/PM/Chat me when you are finished.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] wmaudio:
Well I was able to Odin CWM onto the device, go into Recovery, wipe data/cache/dalvik and I can boot and get into the device without a PIN. However, none of the buttons on the bottom work (menu, home, back).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] My1xT:
which one do you have Intl/US/Korean?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] wmaudio:
US version, and I thought I had flashed the right kernel, but maybe I didn't. I'm flashing a different kernel that I know is for the US version as we speak, I'll update when done..

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

The new kernel fixed it. I appear to be rooted, and have CWM recovery, and the buttons all work. Thanks for the help. :)

Simply write in OP:

Waste of time. Suffice it to be written in the OP.

2.3.x (?????)

This should be in the OP:

Does not work on 2.3.6.

But you can use SuperOneClick 2.3.3 on GB 2.3.6 (with usb debugging enabled) and kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1414565
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ModemJunki:
I was able to use this after applying stock 2.3.6 ROM version G70XXKPL_G70XXKPL_XEF, it needs the same kernel from RJ. The kernel can be flashed with Odin.

So:

1) Flash ROM with Odin.

2) Flash kernel with Odin.

3) Run the batch file (Windows user here).

4) Update superuser as instructed by batch.

5) Enjoy rooted stock firmware.

Having problems trying to unroot my Galaxy Player

Hello guys, I hope you can help me. I am trying to unroot my UK version of the Galaxy Player and I am having some issues. I downloaded the stock rom (yp-gi1cw.factoryfs.stock.tar) and used ODIN to install the stock rom, in the hope that this was the correct way to unroot it. It has unrooted in the sense that Superuser, and the other root based files are gone. However, I still have the yellow triangle, which shows the binary counter as having been moved (as happens with rooting). It also shows the player as a GT-I1900G (Samsung Galaxy S2) device.

How can I cleanly unroot it, removing all traces of it having been rooted in the first place. I want to get it completely back to stock, with no trace of it ever having been rooted.

Edit: No, it doesn't work - "This phone isn't currently supported."

Presumably there exists some "modstring" which will make it happen, but I don't know how to do such a thing.

Because roman has an option to turn that off. It has nothing to do with what version of swype and it isn't a problem.

This feature makes no sense. It gives you an icon Everytime you open Swype?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
It gives you an option to change your input method no matter what keyboard you are using without long pressing because Google is trying to move away from long presses. It has nothing to do with swype.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dincfool:
I fully understand that, but is there a way to bypass it? From what i understand on certain roms you can, certain roms you can't? I've tried everything i can but it bothers me, everytime i see it i feel i have a text or e-mail. Very annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerrycycle:
You could rename, freeze or delete the other keyboard not in use. This will stop the input in status bar because there no other option to choose.

You could do what the Peron above me said, or you have to flash a rom that removes it unfortunately :/ I know Romans rom AOKP has an option to toggle it on or off.

Hey, I just went for the Anker 1900 double pack with an external charger earlier this week. Waiting for them to get delivered. I looked over the Interwebz and they got pretty good reviews.

I am just curious, if you change the stock battery with a larger capacity battery, should you flush the battery data every time you change the batteries?

either keep a spare battery or a usb cable on you

I just wonder how fast Neo was from the beggining. I had allways good results with the Neo on the benchmarks and allways with stock SE roms. I don´t like MIUI and even CM7.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] testadeferro:
I´ve made this just to proof that the NEO is a great device, I think the ARC/ S are only better on the screen. I want to wait for a stable ICS and I believe NEO will pull out from the 2900 antutu points with 2.3.4 to 3600 antutu points with 1024 mhz in ICS. And with a good kernel you´ll be able to work fine with 1,4 ghz and 4000 antutu points. By far over some expansive devices.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] fire-warrior:
I also thought so at the first ... but after holding the arc in my hands and comparing it to my neo .... there is a massive difference in screen,looks,sound of the speaker.

but for real world the arc is a so delicte device that get cracked by it self ... WTF?

in terms of performance they are the same...but the neo is a little faster due to the smaller screen.

anyway i lOVE my neo. :p

I just got my first android tablet today and transfered 2 720p movies, one mkv and one mp4.

What is wrong? it works flawless on my optimus 2x, so why not on an actual 720p tablet screen?

Not sure why you are having this problem. I would try doing a factory reset. This often fixes the problems like this.

I opened the app for the first time for about 12 hours ago, another factory reset wont help.

Include mynet app that was with the tablet force quits itself when i try to browse videofiles that lays on the 32gb external sd.

Edit:

I found out that when i tried an dvd mp4 movie at 1.4gb size the vodeoplayer froze with sound but no picture like the video still continued even after i quitted all media apps.

So if ics still wont play mp4 files after it arrives for my tablet im gonna get my money back for not getting what i payd for.

So then my question will now be:

Do you know about an gpu acellerated video converter that converts mkv or mp4 to avi? that seems to be the only format compatible for now...
[General Questions and Answers] The-Captain:
If no video is coming threw on anything, then it is not the app, but the tablet software. If you are thinking about getting rid of it, a factory reset could not hurt to try.
