A tip: changing the density with LCD density modder did not work for me, it results in a bootloop with the following logcat error:

Changing it directly in build.prop works in this case better

Use tegrack overclock ultmate..i can cofirm that it works on this kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
the tricky think is that in games gpu is rather more important than cpu. It can be overclocked by adding liveoc module to kernel or hardcodng it.

tegrak overclok is more workaround than a solution. I have no idea why you are so negative with having more jb kernels than one, or to have one better.

Nexus s developers have serious expirience and their changes are used on many devices, also those improvements are being implemented from a long time so they are tested and you can trust them :)

WiFi disconnects randomly and it still sees the network but it doesn't connect, and the only way to fix it is by rebooting.

for those who want to keep the 1.5ghz overclock from the 06 nightly but flash the 08 nightly, i deleted boot.img from the 08 zip before flashing (and installed as an update) and it updated just fine and i retained the 1.5ghz with no problems. :)

Guys need a help with this please

"You can replace the boot.img in the zip with one of these, flash it with heimdall, or rename it to zImage, stick it in a tar, and flash with Odin."

i am on kernel - 2.6.35.7-G70UEKI8 -

whenever i try the above thing, my device is getting kinda soft bricked. So still i coundt make my capacitive buttons working(INTL).

Any help appreciated

well, with the first few nightlies, I noticed an improvement with the signal- stronger, more robust, bursting with juicy ....wait, i'm thinking about my gum. but still, better.

recently, I noticed the noted problems, but usually after, as another said, the device sleeps that I never experienced before; wifi settings have been modified to turn off when the device sleeps (to conserve the battery). rebooting it fixes, but the "forgetting" network doesn't.

I just flashed the 1/8 release (w/ boot img) a little while ago and the initial impression is that it has helped (somehow). I'll try n logcat it next time the problems occur

ROM says SD Card isn't inserted, but it is...

Everytime I try to use dropbox, camera, etc. the phone says "No External Storage Available". Did I install it wrong? And when I remove the SD Card the "SD Card Removed" notification shows up. And then when I go to ES File Explorer (root access is on) it dosen't show "sdcard","sd-ext", or "emmc". It didn't do all of this when I was using the ICS roms, and I realized no one else has this problem...

Have a look in /storage

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

I have discovered that (on my device at least) the settings in soundabout do not persist when it is not in use (ie with headphones unplugged for a certain time - 1 hr will do it, maybe less). To get the headphones to consistently work when I plug them in, I have to go into soundabout and reset the setting as desired (even if it looks as if it is already on the desired setting) and THEN plug in the headphones. To be sure of it working I have to do this EVERY time i plug in my headphones. This is a real bind as I usually like to just plug in and listen without looking at my device at all.

Do you all do the same, or are you all just setting and forgetting?

----------------------------

About the hardware acceleration - I may have exaggerated a little in my previous post. Here is what I experience when using mxplayer:

Ordinary hw acceleration doesn't work at all - if I try to select this option when playing any file it always says "Cannot play this video with H/W decoder"

(I also found in mobo player it always plays in sw mode).

The hw+ decoder plays the video, and it is watchable, but it seems to run at a low frame rate (i'd guess about 15-20fps). When I change to sw decoder the smoothness in comparison is delightful! The artifacts I mentioned previously only seem to appear when switching between the decoders.

What are other peoples experiences? Do you see the same - I know, DZonikg that you said you get smooth play with 720p - if you switch to sw is it smoother? Does ordinary hw acc work for you?

------------------------------

And on a more positive note, I must say that

i) My player is now far less battery hungry than it was with cm9 (even with still using sw acceleration on video)!

ii) All my wifi issues have been blown away - I am now having NO issues with wifi AT ALL!

iii) Scrolling/navigating etc. is sooooooooooooooooo much smoother now!

So thank you so much all those of you that helped get this going - it's fantastic...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
720p in normal hw mode..totally smooth

Maybe your files have to high bitrate to hw to handle
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mmmm-):
Oh....That's weird... So it is definitely something about my device... I've tried all sorts of different vids so I'm pretty sure it's not bitrate (especially as I NEVER came across this problem back in my GB days). I've tried reinstalling mxplayer, clearing data etc, I even tried it on a fresh PA rom... Always the same problem... What could it be??

Do you have a small video file that works for you that I could try?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
Download some 720p file from youtube with tubemate
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mmmm-):

All Alone in the night plays fine under sw/hw/hw+ so it must be my files!

I feel much better now, thanks again DZonikg...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
I thing its less memory given to HW then on GB to have little more Ram so maybe some very high bit rate videos will play better on GB inHW..but i dont have any to confirm..al i have works smooth.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
Personaly i dont care..SGP dont have decoding libraryes past GB so code is from galaxy tab..if it dont have we dont 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mmmm-):
It appears that the tab does support divx
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
I have look at their code for CM10 and SGS1 Cm10 code and divx its not supported so its probably stock GB tab rom you talk about..if thats matter you can back to GB or rewrite decode libraryes
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mmmm-):
Ahh, I see... Sorry, I didn't realise you were talking about the tab CM10 code...

No no, I'll just put up with software decoding... I'm surprised divx is no longer supported as I thought it was one of the more popular codecs out there! I was obviously wrong....(especially seeing as no-one else seems to have noticed this) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
ok- so it seems like the wifi "bug" only manifests when you enable the wifi off during sleep option. (ref .aroudn line 2751; wifi supplicant) keeping wifi on regardless of sleep seems to resolve the bug.

also, to the poster who mentioned a wifi on app- you can just adjust that in advanced wifi settings, though to extend battery life, it'd be optimal to have wifi sleep when the device sleeps (I think); I'm not sure if this is a common SGP-Android 4.x problem or a problem unique to the new ROM. obviously, it'd be great to have it resolved for the sake of the battery, but since my knowledge of programming languages, etc is non-existent, I'll be happy to take what is =)

If you look on the development thread, you can see what happened when I tried to use the new bcmdhd drivers. The problem is that the infrastructure in the kernel used by that driver was added in 2.6.39 - we are 2.6.35. On Github is the commit a while back where I tried it. You can look there, and if you need more help, just post in the Dev thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
all-in-all, i'm just glad to know i'm not going crazy....er.........

It might be on the PA thread and not this per say, but going to this ROM is possible from GB, which mean it's possible to go to PA from GB (unless there's something fundamentally different about PA, tho I assume that's not the case). either way, flashing ICS in order to flash PA/CM10 is unnecessary, was my point
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
Yup, I see, it is kind of problematic and would probably need some more work.

Maybe we are lucky and have same hardware for wifi as sgs?

Maybe we can then just cherry-pick what stratosk did few days ago:

I tried installing this ROM many times. Now my SGP won't even open (it got stuck in the Samsung text!). I want to know why it won't open now, is it because I keep on trying to flash this?

Right. You can do it one of two ways.

I have CM10 installed on both my US and INT versions of the player.

I kept having quirky issues with the INT version which I had used to flash a lot of the roms from here so I just when through the exercise to start from as close to GB stock as possible.

What I did do is, since I did not want to use my nandroid backups (fresh start is what I was going after), I flashed Erygit's 3.5 GB Rom (I had it handy) & r14 (INT) kernel. Let it boot & rebooted into CWM, flashed CM9 ICS rom I had handy (the file I had was 3-31.zip - I am not sure who the Dev was... sorry), boot into CM9 ICS, reboot to CWM and flash latest CM10 nightly with INT kernel...

My thing is that I wanted do all this on my player instead of connecting to a PC to get it back to factory GB stock with Odin so it might seem to some as being too convoluted... oh well...:laugh:

Well, that is exactly why I reflashed it the last few times. I went through reflashing the rom 3-4 times and it kept slowing down after a while. Mainly when I started installing a few more apps. Once it slowed, I would remove some apps and it kept being sluggish. I figured that I needed to have a fresh start so that is why when back to a GB rom and started over. I figured maybe the junk left over the many flashes were the cause...

My US player seems fine though. Buttery smooth. I have maybe about 5-10 more apps on my INT player (my kid uses it so I have some games on it) than the US.
