[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HeyyahAndrea:
Entropy's kernel is for the USA Galaxy Player, I believe. I forgot to mention that I've installed rumirand's kernel. Installation Aborted. :/

Edit: This is what it says:

E:Can't open /emmc/download/UPGRADE GB(this is the folder where I compiled all the files)/Chip1.5-1-Signed.zip

(bad)

Installation Aborted.

Any ideas? :/

wich kernel work with this? i have yp-g70 INT, and with rumirand's r14 Kernel i have bootloop. can your help?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
sry, Andrea. For some reason, thought you had an US version. hope it worked out!

If you have the international version with the physical home button, then r14 should be the correct kernel. Perhaps, there was an error while flashing the ROM/kernel? Until a local authority weighs in on the topic, I'd suggest that you try wiping everything in CWM and start from scratch, going through each step. I assume you don't have a CWM backup.

Actually, since you don't seem to have a custom/altered kernel since you're trying to flash a kernel (and I'm assuming that you aren't updating, otherwise you've flashed recovery) and since that kernel is presumably the correct one for your device (if it is international) and any ROM you flash from this particular forum requires or comes with custom kernel... this may be a dumb question, but are you rooted? (Or, did you flash the kernel/ROM directly from stock [out-of-the-box] with ODIN? I'm not sure if this is even possible but...)

If you aren't, you need to be rooted first.

But, if I figured incorrectly and you are simply upgrading your kernel, perhaps either something wrong went during the flashing process or the file was corrupted, in which case, try from scratch.

Also, are you sure it's Int'l and not Korean (assuming you have the physical home button)?

And don't take offense with the suggestions; I'm just trying to cover every angle that comes to mind
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HeyyahAndrea:
It's okay. I've already tried redownloading. Just some info, I downloaded it on my computer and transferred everything to my device with a USB cord. Also, yes, I came from JB and want to downgrade it so I can use the camera.

And the kernel, I used rumirand's and flashed it with CWM.

Will it have an effect if I have multiple files of the ROM itself? Like, I have it on my external SD, and on my internal.

My device isn't working right now, it's again stuck with the samsung white text. -___-

Thanks in advance, really hope you can get back to this sooner. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
Well, this is what I did when coming down from ICS Paranoid Android and won't say that it'll work for you, but it's worth a shot, no?

First, I had a CWM backup saved on my device when I was on Chips. I wiped everything- cache, dalvik, data, etc (some of those are on the advanced menu) Afterwards, I flashed the recovery (and that'd be on /storage/sdcard1/cwm/backups if coming from CM10, /mnt/sdcard/externalsd/cwm/backup {I forget the exact syntax] if the format is GB [I think it should be the former, though your situation is a little confusing; did you already flash Chips successfully, meaning that your Android version is now 2.3x, in which case, it'd be the latter]). I rebooted but my system crashed repeatedly. I went back into CWM, cleared the cache, and flashed the kernel. Done.

I'll go ahead and assume that you didn't make a backup back when you were on Gingerbread. But the principle should be similar:

Download the files and place them on your sd card (same principle as going from GB -> CM10). Wipe everything. The instructions say to:

-flash the kernel (physical home button -> international, rjs; capacitative home button -> US, entropys)

-flash chips rom

-re-flash the kernel (just in case).

-reboot. Allow things to load. Afterwards, go back to CWM and flash the addon pack if you'd like.

This might be superfluous, but remember to flash the zips from your external SD and not your internal SD.

If you already took these steps, having transferred the packages onto your SD card via USB, then maybe the connection to your USB is messed up? Try getting the files onto your SD card via other means (eg computer->SD, in another device, etc) It's a pain, but who knows. Also- and I'm not sure how directly this applies- I remember linux not being great at handling folder/file names with spaces, at least in terminal, so you might want to rename that particular folder. (It's been a while since I've messed with linux so this might've changed?)

(Like, I've no experience with rj's kernel, but I can't imagine that it'd be too different than entropys w/r/t flashing protocol.)

If that fails, it might be worth it to go to eryigit's ROM via Odin since that ROM includes the kernel before going back to Chips. (And someone correct me if I'm wrong about this one.) The instructions are on the page. I think I remember you having already done this, but if you forgot and if those directions are unclear, I remember a great instructional guide illustrating each step somewhere.

Google: eryigit "galaxy player 5.0."

It should show up somewhere near the top.

And no, having multiple copies of the ROM won't have any effect. Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lolo9393:
Sorry to interupt, but my past experience gave me a similar result.

I was able to install Chip 1.2 one time and went to another rom trial, but next following reinstallation failed during the zip installation (mostly without no visible action).

I am having a korean YP-GB70 and was using RJ's14 kernel for CWM feature.

I was sad because this rom (unless the camera!) is in my view one of the best for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HeyyahAndrea:
Thank you. I tried everything, but I guess I gotta go back to Stock GB ROM... Do you think I should try to flash it again after going to stock? Btw, all the links here (the ADDON pack and even the KERNEL) flash perfectly... The ROM zip is the only problem.

But thank you, alljokingaside. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lolo9393:
I was back (wisely may be) to stock korean KPL and now I have just got the new and last KPN rooted. Try it if you want.

Say Thanks to our Korean friends!. ,

And yes, thank you, alljokingaside for your kind help.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HeyyahAndrea:
Thanks, but isn't that for the Korean player only?

Anyway, I downloaded the stock ROM, and I think it's corrupted. It's asking for a password, I don't think it even HAS a password.

My SGP is so messed up.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
It's asking for a pw for what? To access the device? Or for google apps? Is it making it past the logo? The boot animation? etc. It might be a good idea to describe your sit. in a little more detail. It's frustrating, but adding more detail, esp. w/r/t yr procedure'll help in figuring out where things went wrong

so: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1457757

assuming that this is what you used, (chinese stock for int'l) the 3rd poster mentioned something about a password w/r/t google apps. the post after that resolves the issue.

again, I'm suggesting you go to eryigit (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1465144) because it's the only GB I'm aware of w/

-a ton of support (or at least remnants of)

-a kernel

-fix via computer

-acts as an easy jumping point to other ROM should you choose to go that route again

and install via odin (assuming yr USB is ok, yr cpu detects yr device, Kies is fully updated, and you have the correct drivers). i'm saying install via odin and not flash (assuming you flashed, possibly incorrectly) since it could be yr SD card. it could be the zip package. etc etc

and where flashing fails, (perhaps) Odin ...and if I wanted to sound corny, I would say something rhymey, but I'll just end it with... smashes. why? 'cuz smashing's awesome. anyway, i'd like to help more, but beyond this, this prob. is a bit above my head. gl.

PS http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2024496

w/r/t yr earlier post about "instalation aborted", different device, but still the same principle. the tips section might be more helpful than not.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HeyyahAndrea:
Thank you! :) :) I downloaded the other link of the Stock ROM. :) I gotta do some thinking now that I saw the versions of Eryigit, seems really nice. Again, thank you thank you thank you for all the help! :D

Edit: Finally flashed the stock ROM, because downloading Eryigit was terribly slow (although if I download other ROMs with the same file size it downloads pretty much faster). I will try to download Chip tonight after reinstalling RJ's. And to share, I had encountered a problem while flashing with Odin... It says can't connect to (com) port... Reflashed twice, still not working. When I removed the USB cable there came a sign in the screen with a phone and a warning sign and a computer. I can't get to download mode. So I plugged the USB cable again and tried reflashing and worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
glad to hear things r working out. it can be really frustrating I remember- technology.

also, w/r/t posts like these, it's probably best to make a new one in the general section since it veers off-topic. also, the recommendations I made are a bit sketchy here, except that- really- with GB ROMs in the SGP, Chip's is king.

eryigit's great, except it still has a good amount of apps I'd consider bloatware (ie I'd never use). Chip's is slim, sleek, nicely styled (ICS-themed [I don't think "theme" is the right word, but meh]) and give you the most leeway for individual choice (esp w/r/t apps)

Thing, too- that's fairly commonly reported prob on the SGP is faulty/degraded USB drivers. for me in the past, flashing entropys fixed it along with a few other convoluted methods that aren't really worth mentioning unless it is the same prob. (in addition to updating Kies for some reason....). for you and int'l users, as you know, it'd be rj's. only if the usb is detecting (gives you the green light [though i think in Odin, it'd be yellow....]) should you, obviously. go ahead, that is.

if this seems to be the case 4 u- the USB isn't detecting, and flashing rjs isn't working (perhaps re-format yr SD card?) just PM me or post in general and I'll try to relay the little I know, at least the methods that fixed my device when I was on Chips.

Edit: also, if you're on stock, are you rooted? if not, then you'll have to go through the USB, if I'm remembering correctly. which implicates the drivers. again, general or PM and I'll try n help

Yup I saw that. well the performance is really at good level here. it lacks some features comparing to jb and hw acceleration ofc. But it has potential.

Well I have no idea what should I do now with development :) I can make a gb kernel which should be easy using chanes and expirience from jb, it would be good for games for sure, but newer games are made for honeycomb and up. Maybe a 3.0 kernel.would do THE thing

Entropy's kernel/Rumirand's kernel matches up with this device, as stated in the first pg. You should NOT use the Mercurius kernel with this ROM. Where are you upgrading from? If you're coming down from a ICS/JB ROM, you need to flash a GB kernel (ie the ones just mentioned)

Ah, that's probably why it didn't work. Because I wiped everything, installed the rom, and it showed a black screen/Samsung screen.

Just installed because the DSP MANAGER and it is buggy. Compression is buggy.

Tired of test roms. Returning for Froyo.

Samsung Unfortunately destroyed with the sound of the Galaxy Player when upgraded to GB.

Samsug not do anything right. NEVER.

If I want a decent sound in a gadget that is intended to be a media-player i'm stuck in froyo.

Damn Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] LordZilo:
Sound on JB just fine. No problems
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ADR USR:
Well, it depends on the requirement of each. And maybe the handset used. :) Never used the original handset.

The sound in GB is just fine. Like any Android.

I can best explain by saying that the sound in Froyo is for Audiophile.

In GB is common.

Samsung just needed to combine performance (GB) with PLAYER (FROYO).

But then Samsung decided to just upgrade the system and Forcing to choose between having a Player unique or an Android as many others.

The big difference this PLAYER was the sound.

I bought the Galaxy Player for enjoying music before everything..

This is my priority. So I can live with FROYO.

But I must register as a manufacturer can be stupid.

And in this case, Samsung was.

I tested all the mods that worked.

All with serious bugs or poor sound quality (compared to 2.2).

Anyway, no problems. Only solitary protesting against Samsung. I've done it with Samsung, but S just ignores their consumers. :(

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Assyle:
hi there :)

I just want to thank you for adding languages. Language pack is working good. (czech and russian at least). Very good ROM.

Tried this rom for a half of an hour.

1. Rom eats a lot of ram memory. Even after deleting app like contacts, swype etc. Actually I have deleted a lot of the stock apps, and cleaned that with taskkiller in agressive mod, after that still there are some 160-170mb off free ram memory. (as an example on Eryigit-GB-2.3.6 that I'm using commonly, there are about 210 mb free after theese manupulations. ) Anyway ROM is not very fast in apps, oppening menus, and common use. (maybe you will add some speed tweaks, idk)

2. Rom is a little bit laggy. But I dont know why. It has 170 mb of ram free, but still very slow. As an example oppening Gplay takes 5-6 seconds. I didnt understood why.

3. Some apps, at in market say that they are not capatible with that kind of device, but those apps were installed on Eryigit rom without problems. (I didnt noticed that Eryigit rom had a a device id hack)

4. Wasnt able to find a poweramp trial on market. Ublovk was found and installed but trial app couldnt been found. (maybe is not a problem of rom, maybe its a app developer/market issue, idk)

5. Wi-fi connection is not very stable. At least some times in market it was writtening "no connection", but actually wifi indicator was full, I was sitting near to the router)

6. When I have tried to update two apps, it was showing error 927. Got it work from 6th attempt. Idk why.. :)

7. Can't see a button "clear", in a status bar to clear notifications. They are still there, cannot take them away till reboot. (not very convinient)

8. The last is optional, I will try to fix it by myself, but in release 1.2 toggle menu, statusbar are still grey like in a first mode. For more ICS look its better to be much darker, imho.

Anyway this ROM is very freash and new. Just in few days you did a great work. I suppose you will fix all lags, and make it faster and smoother :) I will test it for today and tommorow, and let you know if find something to fix :) once again thank you very much for your great ROM :)

9. for some reason cannot find a standart gallery, and cannot find selection of background image. And lockscreen background image.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mevordel:
1. True, I haven't optimized it very much yet, but I am not having lag issues...

2. Also have not noticed that (although I did install (personally) the leaked Jellybean store - so that might affect it)

3/4. I just looked and poweramp trial is showing in market... see #2

5/6. Also see #2 :D I don't think they are rom-related

7. Swipe the notifications to the side to remove them. I hid that section because I thought it took up too much space, especially in landscape.

8. What are you referring to, specifically? The main background is gray so you can actually read the notifications with black text.

9. I don't think the standard gallery is available in the store. Longpress the home screen to change wallpaper. Unfortunately Samsung doesn't let you change the lock screen easily. It's the image in framework-res in Res/hdpi that has the most Z's in front.

I think that's all :)
