[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] woer:
You could try Google's USB driver. First just try step 1 of my guide to getting it working on 64 bit Windows XP: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1562159

I don't have Windows 7 to try it, but it's worth a shot. I don't know if the driver works with Windows 7 x64 without the rest of the modifications in that guide, but try first without making them.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ZaIINN:
Sounds like you're just a special case. I'd just try and restore the device to factory settings and try again. You could also try it with another PC and see if it's just a problem with yours?

I've owned both a 4 and 5.0 Galaxy Player and haven't had a single issue at all since launch, so a restore should help, or perhaps just return it for a new one if your under the "so many" day warranty with a vendor like Best Buy.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] spepper:
similar trouble

I bought a Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (YP-G1CW) and a 5.0 (YP-G70) for Christmas-- the Player 5 runs beautifully-- no hangs, freezes, or problems with my PC's (Windows 7) recognizing it, instantly. But with my Galaxy 4 unit, VERY different experience-- same type trouble with both PC's (desktop and laptop, both running Win 7 32 bit) not recognizing the 4.0 player. I had installed the very latest version of Kies which is supposed to include the latest drivers for both. Also, when using both players as a music player specifically using streaming channels (both DLNA on local wifi network and internet radio), the 5.0 player functions perfectly (no dropouts) while the 4.0 player is UGLY-- frequent dropouts (as if someone is repeatedly hitting the play/pause button) which occurs across multiple apps for the different sources of audio.

update: I tried doing a root on the 4.0 player only, which initially seemed to go well, then all of a sudden, the 4.0 stopped responding, specifically after a "boot loop"-- then I had to pull the battery to shut it off, then after reinserting battery & pressing power button, NOTHING-- "black screen bricked" it. I created a work ticket (still under warranty) on the Samsung USA support site, got a shipping label and sent it in-- got a notification that they repaired it this week (only took 1 week after I mailed it!) and shipped it back to me. I will do a careful operational evaluation & see if it works as originally advertised (or not) and report back soon. I really like the size of the 4.0 (even though the extra display size of the 5.0 is sweet) and hope it functions just as well. We'll see.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Swifty31703:
Well I tried factory resetting it twice. First time changed nothing. It still would not connect to my computer. The second time I literally killed my home button. The menu and back buttons worked fine... I just ended up taking it back to Best Buy to swap for a new one. :D

The new one connected to my laptop instantly. No issues what so ever. I have it rooted and am running Steve's custom kernel with Voodoo. Loving the Galaxy Player now! I only wish it came with 32gb built in so I would be up to 64gb right now... Flac takes up way too much room. :rolleyes:

Thanks for all the responses.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] spepper:
Interesting, Swifty31703-- sounds like Samsung let slip through some real duds in the 4.0 assembly line-- or didn't do a very good "QC" job on them versus the 5.0 model-- I own both (different vendors had put the 4.0 and 5.0 each on sale right before Christmas, and I couldn't resist getting one of EACH!); my 5.0 player runs PERFECTLY. My 4.0 unit was running fine (or so I thought) except for 2 particular annoyances: 1) I could not get the 4.0 player to be recognized by ANY computer I plugged it into (all running Win 7, 32 bit and latest Kies/drivers). The 5.0 player was recognized INSTANTLY. Also, the 4.0 player's audio quality was "less than optimal" let's say-- it would frequently (and annoyingly) "clip" or lose volume very frequently on any track I would attempt to play, esp. on from my server computer on my home network (using 2Player), or even on an audio streaming channel through ANY app I would use (Rhapsody, Tunein, etc). Sounds as if someone is repeatedly obsessively hitting the play/pause button in the app. My 5.0 player has not done ANY of that nonsense EVER. I ended up doing a repair through the Samsung website, created a repair ticket and sent it back. It is on the way back to me currently, and I'll report if it really is "fixed" or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] spepper:
Ok, got my Galaxy 4.0 Player back, only 10 days from shipping it out til its return. Hat tip to the Samsung Service Center in Plano TX. You guys ROCK. Anyway, it was restored to its pristine operating system, currently at firmware 2.3.5 & build GINGERBREAD.UEKI8. My PC running the latest Windows version of Kies connects the unit perfectly. My only other original complaint about the unit was the strange "clipping" or "volume dropout" of the audio during playback of ANY media, stored or streaming. I discovered that it occurred whenever an "equalizer" app was also running, and specifically when I turned on "bass enhancement". Strange phenomena. But other than that, it runs perfectly now. No more "ROM'ing" for me!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hobomusashi:
I need to figure out exactly what's causing this battery drain. At 7PM my battery was at 100% after installing a new radio+kernel combo. I also calibrated my battery using a method I read in the Calkulin thread for his ROM. The method was as follows: After installing a new radio, rom or kernel charge the battery to 100% then physically take the battery out for 3 minutes. Boot into recovery then wipe the battery stats and dalvik cache 3 times each. Boot into Android then charge to 100%. Download a battery calibration tool use that and discharge. Anyway, I did all of this and was done by 7PM. After light use...listening to a few songs via google music...did a search using 3g...nothing too heavy. By 8:23 my battery was down to 76%. I thought this was pretty abnormal so I downloaded some extra battery tools and app watcher tools to see exactly was draining me so bad. Over the course of about 1:30 hours my battery dropped from 76% to 46%. I froze some non essential apps after checking up on them with watchdog (social hub, yahoo finance, tts service and accuweather). Decided to do a restart to see if that would help and my battery read 17%. I just noticed that it went up to 18% and it's holding steady but this is really weird...I honestly don't know what's going on and I could really use some assistance with this issue.

I forgot to post stats for the past few hours. Before I started the battery drain quest the Battery Monitor Widget said that the estimated was around -280mA. Over the course of a few hours it ranged from that to well over -600mA. After the restart it dropped to like -2mA but now it's back up in between the -400mA to -700mA range. It's slowly dropping as I type but there's no way that this is normal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Sometimes when doing reboots messes up the battery reading. Its done that to me before. I have noticed that on ics when I flash a kernel and modem it takes me like a full day to get good battery. After I flash it my battery is pretty bad. Search for an appstore called bettery battery stats. Its on here at xda somewhere. Use that to see if your phone is sleeping properly or if an app is wakelocking your phone. Also it depends on who u ask but wiping battery stats does absoutley nothing for me. Its been said before that it doesn't work. Hope u get it straightened out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hobomusashi:
thanks for the response. I've downloaded the battery stat app but I need to read up more on it to find out what the program is telling me. In your opinion what is good battery drain? I was on facebook for a second and it skyrocketed to high -600's but now it's down to about -90mA and dropping by just sitting in front of me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
Clearing battery stats does work to wipe any info the os has on the battery. Just check your battery graph in settings, boot to cwm, wipe battery stats, then look at that graph again.

I know you know your fair share of info, so no disrespect man...

Sent from a phone with kNOw CiQ ;) kOnane...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
I think he meant wiping does nothing to actually effect the life of the battery... Which, I agree. I've never seen any benefits when I've done it on my ET our my Moment.

Wiping just resets the OS's experience with the battery. Using your phone normally for 24 hours had the exact same effect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hobomusashi:
things were looking up as far as battery life goes. i got rid of some programs that were hogging the cpu and i was almost to around 12 hours on a single charge with light use. however, i did a reboot at around 6pm and my battery read 45% before hand. after the reboot it read 10%. do you think it has something to do with the kernel? this is the second time a reboot has jacked up my battery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
Where can i get Wallpaper scrolling

For sence 3.0
[HTC Amaze 4G] supraman89:
It's Sense not sence, and its not possible to do with any version of sense after 2.xx
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
Use a different launcher (adw, go launcher, etc...) Those don't have 3d widget support, and because of that, have stable (yet slight laggy at times) scrolling wallpaper.
[HTC Amaze 4G] adslee:
I don't know what you guys are talking about, OneGoodROM V3 over at the development section has scrolling wallpaper enabled for Sense 3.0
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrgwap:
Eh sense I mean. I usually do ads but Im trying to give this a chance. I've seen scrolling wallpaper here before I know it exsists lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] metaphysical_calamity:
Its possible. I did it on evo3D last night sense 3.0. check the themes section :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
It's got nothing to do with what version of Sense you have... It's all about 3D widgets and the carousel effects... I'm pretty sure at least
[HTC Amaze 4G] metaphysical_calamity:
They all work perfect :)

[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
Yea!!! Its about time!! haha first! lol just had to say that... So I just have to say I love this ROM. I have been running it for two days now and its awesome! Hell makes roms for the G2x and just recently scored the Fire. So welcome to HellFire Kindle folks.. Enjoy the ride. I dare you... :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbyDukes707:
Hell! Welcome! I rooted my kindle yesterday just because I knew this was in the works!

I have been using HFS since... well, since it was a dl in the HFP thread.

I can't wait to get home and load up the hellish awesomeness you have in store for us!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
i just hope i can do for the kindle fire what i have done for lg g2x and make the comunity happy

Big thnks to kernel Dev i forgot which one i used so thank you to all of you :P
[Kindle Fire Android Development] fishjam:
Which method can I use to install, twrp or cwm? Thanks, can't wait to try.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
Both work no gapps needed
[Kindle Fire Android Development] D8nkE:
Just dled. Now I just have to wait til my KF is charged so I can flash it. Been using barebone cm7. Nice to see another developer for the kindle.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
Yes indeed!!! but one thing I forgot to mention in my post earlier if for some reason any one trying this rom gets any FC's then please pass the log_cat my way. There are many apps in the play market that will let you review and export the log_cat. I will gather them (if applicable) and send them to Hell for possible resolution. I dont have any myself to send him that he isnt aware of with the G2X version of this ROM. But none the less if so then post them here or PM them to me. Thanks in advance. oh and also before anyone who isn't familiar asks and doesn't know since again this came from the g2x; The small bar at the top of your screen that decreases over time is an app. its called T.E.A.M. battery bar...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] BobbyDukes707:
having trouble flashing... here is my ghetto screenshot... tried to redownload it twice and once to a different computer and transferred it over... tried renaming it... tried swearing at it... next I will try voodoo unless anyone else has any suggestions...

EDIT!! Never mind! I am an idiot. I figured, for ****s and giggles I am going to boot it up to see what happens... loaded fine...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
And your using twarp thing right? If so let me know so I can find out how to make it installable for that
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Dishfsm1:
I'll be using the twrp will it work with it? Love your G2X 1.4.... wanting to get this going on my KF!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Dishfsm1:
Not working with twrp loader... same error as last user. Hope it gets fixed!

Just noticed BobbyDuke707's post. twrp says it didn't load but it did!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] lovejoy777:
works perfect with cwm

thanks

is there a google play apk anywhere?

Awesome:-)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
Yes go in go the file explorer system/apps/install vender.apk :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] koop1955:
For what it is worth, apparently the "Cannot load volume /misc" error message is quite common with TWRP. See the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1547174

The advice given is that it is "normal" and doesn't affect the install.

Having just rooted myself and not having installed any ROMs yet, I can't verify that.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Dishfsm1:
Works Awesome! Looks great just as HellFire should look! Can't wait for more work on this rom and from Hell!

[Kindle Fire Android Development] shantam:
We dont need much roms as kernel 3.0 has not built yet we should switch to ics roms and go beyond
[Kindle Fire Android Development] x0xhellx0x:
Yes I agree and I have one built but wanted to give a stable cm7 to fall back too
[Kindle Fire Android Development] :
Only been running the Rom a couple days but I was getting FC's too. I switched to Adw Ex and haven't had any since then.

You don't have to restart the device though, you can into GO Launcer settings and select "exit go launcher" and then hit home button. It should bring it back.

I am having problems with the kindle fire. The fire shuts down after i press the power button to turn off the screen. Sometimes when i press the power button, it wakes up but sometimes, it starts the kindle as though it is fully shut down. Is this normal?

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

is there anyway to make it suspend instead of shutting it down. It takes quite long for the fire to boot up from shut down so it is quite annoying
[Kindle Fire Android Development] andlcool:
Updates: i did some further testing and found out that with power plugged in, the kindle fire can go to sleep and wakes up with the power button. It does not show the boot screen. Hope it is some settings that went wrong and not with my kindle fire
[Kindle Fire Android Development] bbc0:
a brief press of the power button suspends my kf and another press wakes it up. Battery life is way better when i use it that way.

Question how cqn i use lockscreen?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] da-pharoah:
the option in CM settings dont seem to be working.. I thought I tried that but I guess I didnt. i'll make sure Hell is aware of it. But in the mean time use an app from the market... there's plenty avail...

is it just me or is there a green bar across the top of the screen at all times? :s

[Kindle Fire Android Development] tevil:
got my first sleep of death. also the other day something must have been running that caused the SOD b3ecause somehow my battery drained from full to 15% in a day being in sleep mode.

this all happened after installed the setCPU so im thinking i may have to restore to before the settings and leave it stock as the DEV left because before that it seemed to run smoother. I used to get some stuttering that way and lag but at least no SOD and random drains.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] SubliminalME:
Other than Hulu+, which is a constant headache, this rom works great!

Actually, one other stupid issue...when you are on the home page, and go to the menu, the tablet bar at the bottom tends to hide part of the menu. But that's small potatoes.

Great rom! :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] tevil:
here is a modified hulu + that works great on this ROM.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] portezbie:
I have been using this rom for a few weeks now and it is great, thanks again for the fantastic work!

The only problems I have experienced are that sometimes when I power off the device it doesn't seem to fully power off (the screen goes black but the backlight stays on) and I have to power it off fully with the power button.

Also, when I play Bloons TD4 if I put it down and let the screen turn off the game is unable to come back on and I get an error about heap sizes, sorry I don't remember the wording exactly.

Minor problems though, thanks again!

Hey, Mind if I noob out? Does Netflix work on GB? I've read it does, but I'm not 100% sure. I ask for two reasons.
