is a problem if system isnt mounted by deafault? in cwm

because this is the error i get when trying to get logcat

- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Try install everything one more time. Installation wasn't sucessful that is why you have this error.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
ok do you wipe system and if so when
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Just use instruction from 1st post but with build-05 and last kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Nevermind. :(.

I'm going to update GPU kernel drivers to version 1.8 as new libs are 1.8, maybe we have problem because now we have version 1.6 in kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
ok i will be will be looking for the new version in the near future
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
New kernel is ready.

Change log:

- gpu: pvr: Update to DDK 1.8@300406

Test only with clean install build-05.

Please give me:

- output from this command:

adb shell cat /proc/pvr/version

- this file /proc/config.gz

- logcat

-info that boots or not

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
all i can give you is that it is not booting for me
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Yeah, but I mean I leave tomorrow and don't have time to restore from a boot loop or if I had to wipe data. :D

Ya. I can see what you are getting at. Only build 2 oisis is working. I just tried to install build 5 with the new kernel that oisis just came out with. I spent the last 2hrs restoring my system because he said you needed to do a full clean install and I tries it like 4 times and got nothing. Oh well. Going back to build 2. Possibly staying with icy fusion. Don't know
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] fromnowon:
I'm stuck at samsung logo. And after 'adb logcat > logcat.txt' where can I get this file? 'cd sdcard' and 'ls' but it shows me nothing...So I just copy a part of logcat...

Desktop\pp\adb>adb shell cat /proc/pvr/version

File attached.

Log attached.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
I just looked at the log and its the same net error we have had with all other builds. Oisis maybe Han is right unless you haven't made those intd scripts any better.

My theory port a 3.0 kernel and see what happenes
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Could somebody give me logcat from build 02? Need to check netd error. Thanks.

Maybe will prepare patch with new drivers for build 2, we will see that will works. We need to fix things one by one, now I made to many things in one step. When I will have device I can test everything faster and will release only working builds.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
Ok here is the logcat of build 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
OK maybe I was wring about the net error. This is a net error but it is build 2 also which means that it is not preventing it from booting up.

Sorry oisis. Led you wrong information
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
The issue with netd is in build 2 too so is not related with bootloop. I lost a lot of time to resolve it :(. Included quota2 to kernel and he is still there I think is init scripts problem. Anyway I'm going to wait for device and in middle time study init scripts.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Is it possible you can give us the full logcat?

---------- Post added at 07:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 AM ----------

When are you supposed to get it
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Don't know, waiting for zaclimon.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
OK so I can assume that there will be no more builds until you get it
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
I can build but needs good testers who will do what I will request.

EDIT1:

Could somebody install build 4 and 3 and try with last kernel. Full logcat please, thanks.

EDIT2:

I need also from build-05 and last kernel output from this commands:

EDIT3:

This two first lines

telling that some mountpoint is not mounted properly(maybe only to read) or system doesn't have rights to some device, can be wrong.

EDIT4:

I think that maybe found solution, check this.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Alright guys, I have some unfortunate news. I know I've been heavily participating lately, but I feel that my grades are suffering from it, as the time I should be using to study is being used to develop. Therefore, I'm going on a temporary hiatus until I feel that not study habits have leveled out, I'll still be here for support an I'll occaissonly flash test builds, but for the next week or so (maybe including this weekend), my contribution will be minimal at best, as academics come before development. Good luck to you guys, and I'll try to help as much as I can.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Sorry for the late reply. First of all. I want you to say you thanks to you all for your donation, I was able to buy the device in time. I tought that the taobao agent couldn't buy the device but they did it :D (it was the last one). Ok so the device is in route to the taobao's agent office (3 to 5 working days), then we will have to send it by express shipping to oisis (I don't know if I will use either EMS or DHL, depends of the price). Also like hanthesolo said earlier, I may be out too for school reasons (last year in secondary, :D) I will be able to make some tests but not all (meaning that all the focus I will have on android would be the ramdisk) and I can maybe not answer your questions if you have.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
I know i havent helped all that much but i have to agree with the both of you. School certaintly does take importance over everything else. I am starting school on september 4th and i will need to be focused. I will periodicaly check in on the thread and look for new builds. I will also try to answer many question you may have.

i know that this means that beyond this point builds will be far and few between but that is just the way life goes. :( oisis sorry to desert you but like I said I will try to do what I can without effecting my schoolwork.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
I graduated university a long time ago so no problem with school :), will have device soon, I hope, so I will tests everything by myself. I think this will be ok and maybe even faster with device.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
OK thanks. I will be flashing builds for sure that are in the OP. beyond that I'm not sure ill be able to flash ones that you put out for testing, if you put any out there
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
When I will have device i will only release working builds, maybe not fully tested but working. There will be also changelog so you will know what to expect to.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Sweet. Thanks for you hard work
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Alright, so while we're waiting for Oisis to get his plays (so we can resolve the Gl issue once and for all), I'm going to release my no-gl build/s with everything working except for Bluetooth and camera. The builds are pretty slow though, so if you want something fast, you're going to have to wait for Oisis to release a fixed kernel, or flash build 1, which kinda works with 3d games.

Oisis, I'm building these on our working github, if you want me to try anythjng with them, just talk me, and I'll see if I can put it in a new build.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] -sandro-:
is hw acceleration still in the fix list?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Yeah, it is. We need to fix a LOT before it will be fixed, and will probably be the last thing to work. Once we get most things working in cm9 though, we can start thinking of built,ding JB (won't be too hard for me, although Oisis and zaclimon would need to fix up the kernel before it would work).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] theraf:
does external sd work in these builds?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Alright ok people I paid the 2nd and last payment for internationnal shipping (which was my donation) :D. The device should arrive to oisis this week!! (I hope:fingers-crossed:) For people that wants to see what's the device looks like, here it is:

front picture

back picture

Many thanks (again I know) from you guys!! :p. From (almost) now on we can have ICS working!!

---------- Post added at 08:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 AM ----------

Not for the moment. For me I copy some of my songs and then I put it on my internal sd card.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Alright, so my first no-gl uild should be live soon (although i'm still battling an issue that makes CM9 bootloop which is due to ). My fix list for this weekend is at the very least audio and/or bluetooth, although vold.fstab shouldn't be TOO hard to correct. I attached logcat if anyone wants to help troubleshoot the issue. The only thing I can think of is that when I wiped /data, CM9 isn't recreating the files it needs, hence the bootloop, as it does it with other builds as wel (although I haven't tried it with Oisis' initial build yet).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
I have a question. CM9 uses MTD partitions so when we want to return on stock ROM, we have to do a full-recovery in odin with repartition. But is it possible to modify the updater-script of zip flash stock ROM : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1736591 for reconvert the partitions and go to stock more quickly and symply ?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Not really... The way the partitions are converted modifies the .pit inside the device so we need to reconfigure the pit in order to get it to stock (which is what basically re-partition does, I think.)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Neodymium:
I think someone should make a mtd stock GB rom for convenience
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] theraf:
problem is i have 20 gb of music...i thought han said that in these new builds everything will be working minus bt, camera and hw acceleration
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
I managed to find the issue I was having (and came super close to just reinitiating our github) and came close to borking my bootloader, but all is good now. I pushed the fix to github as well. Provided everything boots and initiates well, I can start cranking out builds sometime tomorrow, with luck. I did find out the hard way though that you need a working /efs to be able to use WiFi :D. Will be nice to FINALLY use this for Pandora, and not have to lug around my TF if I want good sound quality.

EDIT: market won't install apps due to some issue with Dr manager (waiting for process DRM.Dr manager). Again, this is another issue I have to wait for Oisis/zaclimon to fix in the kernel before it will work. Installing apps works, but only 1 version if the market works, and it auto updates to a broken version.

EDIT: tomorrow I'll put up my working version, and work on fixing up vold.fstab (shouldn't be too hard, right?). I would really appreciate it though if you would look into patching the DRM issue Oisis, as it effectively renders our working build useless :(. I am using a booting version this very second, but it's poorly patched-up and differs greatly from our github, so I'll rebuild and release the new build tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Two things.

One how do we know of we have a working /eds.

And two thank-you for this. Can't wait for the new build soon
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Sorry to put it this way, but if you don't t know what /efs is or how to know if it's not corrupted, you are probably for the sake if your device better off not fooling around with these early builds:(. Seriously, you can get into some really hot water really quickly if you don't t have a pretty good understanding of linux. Anyway, if you ls the /efs partition and it shows up with more than just lost+found, chances are that it is not corrupted, and is working fine.

I will definitely put up a new build tomorrow, although I may need to slow down development, as the ROM is fairly complete (minus HW acceleration, but that's an easy fix), and the kernel is still in it's initial release, which may give a rather lopsided experience, as some things must be patched in the kernel to work in the ROM, and vice-versa. Hopefully that will resolve itself once Oisis gets his device, and we can work together (him on the kernel, me on the ROM) to get a complete build done by the end of September. At least that's what I'm shooting for.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
I accidentaly lose my /efs folder when I go from CM7 to stock and there is no problem in my device. Only small issue in stock but CM9 ils working fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Losing it and flashing to stock will cause a lot of strangeness, but I believe CM actually converts your /efs to another format (yaffs), and stock looks for RfS and can't mount it, meaning that if you flash another CM build you will be able to see/pull all the files in there, but if you actually have nothing in /efs that causes problems for both CM and stock.

My build has compiled overnight, so I will put it up in about 2 hours if it boots okay.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
New build up for you guys! Confirmed as working this time, so you have a 100% chance of using working ICS by the end of today:).

Changelog:

Finally fixed bootlooping that was plaguing our github

fixed ALL GL crashing and oddness

Fixed/improved sound (if it was broken)

Fixed Browser (slow, but usable)

Waiting on a new kernel to readd GL and/or HW acceleration.

DL link: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?lu33uubm6der2j9

Have fun!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
I fixed A/V codecs, added TVOut hack in to the gitrepo.

Hanthsolo could you update sources(device dir) on your computer and rebuild last ROM? I'm going out now so cannot do that till late evening. Could you add link to local_manifest.xml to first page? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
I'm on the OISIS build of ics. My /efs folder ils empty but I have no problem . I have done today a backup of efs.rfs with Klin's method, and this file is 5mo. Can I flash it with odin or heimdall ?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] fromnowon:
Hi @hanthesolo,

Root issue still exists. Have to reroot.

And sdcard can't mount(after boot it shows me 'safe to remove sdcard')
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Thanks for that, I don't quite know what's causing the issue. Should be an easy fix though. I will also release an init.d script that *should* fix the sdcard, for now.

BTW, for anyone that likes using FM radio, we have support for it in build #2 (in the OP), you just need to download spirit fm (you can find it for free by googling it +xda).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] terrence1019:
Stuck at Samsung Logo

still stuck at samsung logo, even though i followed instructions thoroughly. any reason why?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Did you wipe when you flashed the 2nd time? Or it can be the reasons that han said below.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Could be anything from you flashing a bad download, to your partition table being messed up. If you run into issues you can't resolve, I recommend waiting for a stable release before flashing, as we will be able to provide support for those.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dorfd1:
The galaxy player 4.0 has TVOut?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
No and now i know it, removed from github.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] terrence1019:
no i didn't wipe. what exactly should i wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
wipe data/factory reset
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Build #3 up with some minor adjustments!

BTW, who would like to see linaro in the next release, provided that it doesn't break anything major?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] daniel644:
I would suggest its best to get all parts like bluetooth and camera and any other broken things working FIRST before trying to integrate things that might cause more problems.

Also is the kernel still seperate like before and if so which kernel should we use with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
I have a corrupted /efs, I have only lost.found but this didn't causes problems in CM, and they are small problems on stock(only stock locker, and power button options doesn't work)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Daniel! Nice to see you, I though you had left :). I'm just being adventurous, and if it doesn't t break anything, why not use it?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
I prefer to not to use it because we will make biggest mess. It not to easy to implement it, even CM team was working on it a long time. So first fully working ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] terrence1019:
it worked :good:

however no sdcard support
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Good news. We need people who will test ROM and give us feedback what is working what not, logcats too. There is still a lot to do but we are doing best we can.

I'm working on sdcard right now so soon should works.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] daniel644:
I've been here, just been reading, I couldn't get past rebooting into CWM on the first version I tried so I went back to stock, so I've sat back and just tried to keep up with the pages of posts.

As for the Linario stuff I just think its best to hold off on adding things till the broken parts get fixed first because for all we know Linario may actually cause other problems that would make trouble shooting the current issues harder. It's just best to get a FULLY working and stable BASE before modifying it just so we can tell the EXACT effects of what mods break what or fix what, if you see what i'm saying.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Okay, I see your point. I thought it would be fun to play around with it, even if it breaks a few things, just for fun :). Me and Oisis fixed internal sdcard, although the external is still not working. I will upload the fixed kernel, and upload a modded rom as soon as I have enough to justify a release.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] terrence1019:
one last thing: even though i flash gapps, it's not present in the apps list
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] the playa!:
Hard Working People! :D

You guys are working mad fast on this! Congratz on ur high efforts.... Just one thing I would like to know, when will the camera be fixed? I WILL flash this ROM after the camera starts to work... any idea how long it might take? cuz i REALLY wanted ICS on the galaxy player 4.0 and HERE it is... just one thing missing for me until I flash this! Again, good work guys.. keep it up! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Camera will be the last thing to fix because is not so easy to make it. Cannot tell you when, need device first to fix rest of bugs then will take care about camera. Can somebody run camera and make logcat? Will help me a little bit. I saw that camera HAL starts so it is good for us, means that kernel and camera libs are ok. Need also output from this command:

and then post dmesg.txt from internal sdcard. Needs to know that sensors for camera are loaded. Thanks.

EDIT:

Link for kernel for build 3 from 1 post is not working. So attached here.

Change log:

- added internal sdcard support

- added netfilter quota2 support

- added netfilter quota2_log support
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Alright, it boots up just fine. Here's dmesg and logcat for Camera and boot:

EDIT: For people obsessed with camera, it seems to init just fine, but the camera app itself crashes. Oisis is looking into it, hopefully we can fix it soon. Camera itself may still be broken, but for now it's the app itself that's causing an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Needs info about battery stats. It works ok?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] GalaxySWifi4:
I flash build 3 with the new kernel but it stucks at samsung logo. Build 2 works with the old kernel but I have two big issue : I can't have root access and sd card can't mount.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Try one more time with wipe. Build 3 and last kernel was tested so it is working. Internal sdcard works on last kernel, kernel should works with build 2 too so you can try this way.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ChaosChris:
I am stuck at samsung screen too :/ tried it with wipe ( system data cache ) and without its the same effect :/

dont know why but build 2 working fine and flashing with cwm is about 2 mins but with build 3 it flashed in about 20 seconds ... :/
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
I made only build 2 so don't know, could you test build 2 with kernel from 3? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ChaosChris:
sure i can test :)

for build 3: when i flashed the stock gb kernel i can see the stock samsung boot animation in a bootloop so i think the zip dosent flash correct :/

for build2 with new kernel: Booted! will test ..... when i open gallery it says no external storage but on settings i can see that there is the internal sd and usb storage but no ext. sd i try to mount the ext sd via build.prop
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] oisis:
Which zip? My kernel? CM9 will not works with stock kernel. Boot animation is missing and will be added. Hanthsolo tested his build 3 with my last kernel, was ok.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ChaosChris:
no i mean when i flashed build 3 an your new kernel i stuck at samsung screen. So i dont know if the zip flashed correctly so i flashed the stock kernel for test if there is the samsung boot animation or cm9 boot animation. and i see the samsung boot animation (an the animation is in system/media) so the zip isnt flashed correctly ....

sry for my bad english

build 2 and your new kernel works but the galery says there is no storage but under settings -> sorage i can see that there is the internal sd :/ and the ext. sd dosent work too i try to mount ext. sd via build prop ...

i your build 2 with the old kernel ( that in the op under build1 ) i know that internal storage is working but on the build2 from hansolo the internal storage is not wotking ... or its the new kernel dont know :/
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] fromnowon:
Use the TPSparkyRoot(file attached) to reRoot, which I've tested works.

To solve sdcard mounting issue, just take this vold.fstab(file attached) to replace system/etc/vold.fstab(must fix permission):victory:

Again thanks for your guys working for G1!!! >_<

EDIT: Oh, this vold.fstab is for build#3 at OP.

EDIT: New, working vold.fstab up
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanthesolo:
Alright, so #1: if the zip flashes faster than it should, try flashing again. This probably means /system wasn't mounted. The second flash should go okay.

#2: internal SD will NOT work for now. We have support in the kernel for it, but the vold.fstab needed to be modded. Once I have enough new code to justify a release, I will hapilly do so.

#3: Oisis, when you are talking about "build 2", are you talking about the build I released about a day ago (without gl), or are you talking about your first release (categorized as build #1 on the front page).

#4: yes, as far as I know battery stats are working well. I looked at them yesterday, and they were showing my usage, so that works okay.

#5: Oisis, now that we have netd fixed, do you want to try using the new drivers again? All you need to do is recompile the kernel +new drivers, I can flash the new drivers over an older build (or use the one you created a few pages back).

#6: yes, root is broken for some bizzare reason. This is an issue of cm9, not ours, although it shouldn't be too hard to fix. For now though, just flashing a root package in cwm should give you access back.
