That thing looks beautiful.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Yes it does :D

im assuming that you have a custom kernel installed. if so you must have CWM. if so then all you need is a cwm package with superuser.apk, su binary, and busybox binary.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] arclight25:
Nope. Stock everything
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
ok well you have two options.

1. try superoneclick: http://shortfuse.org/?page_id=2

2. try to find a custom kernel to install that is made for your device. any other kernel could brick it
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] arclight25:
Definitely dont want that. I will try superoneclick.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
the problem is is that i dont see a lot of devving going on for the 5.8 at least on here. might wanna check other places.

Try some jb root methods, maybe it will work.

Right now I am torn between extreme envy of you, or just outright hating you :p Anyway, mind if we pick your brain a little? I'm curious about the camera on the device.....
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] arclight25:
Absolutely. 3mp. No flash. Not that stunning, but it is very usable. The device as a whole is great. Just about the perfect size. Big enough to read magazines on, and still able to fit in jeans pockets.

This was taken with the 5.8....much better outdoors than inside with artificial light. 3mp is never good in low light

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] arclight25:
My only complaint thus far with it, is that the volume is a bit low compared to my 5.0. I am assuming they changed the sound chip on it. With premium over ear headphones it is still ear rattling.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ZGruk:
Well, the sound problem is solved. Turns out it was the ear buds. Very strange, since those ear buds did and continue to work fine with other devices...

Any ideas on the USB issue?

it's just the way it is sorry. If you want faster response, you will have to just keep using the cm rom.

Although personally I find that after I wiped data, this runs pretty smooth. I can't really tell you anymore cause im on the 3.0 kernel but try wiping data and see what happens

also another question i have about the PACman rom, the lock screen lock clock widget also contains the weather but the temperature is displayed in the centigrade scale how can i change that to the fahrenheit?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:

Do I need different USB drivers for the CM 10 ROM? I have the Samsung drivers, but it occurs to me I may need different drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
when you plug it into your computer, what does it show up as?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ZGruk:
It doesn't really show up at all. If I go into the Device Manager (I'm on Windows) it shows up there as YP-G1, but when you bring up the properties it says it doesn't have drivers installed. Which would explain why Android thinks its connected and starts the developer tools, but Windows doesn't recognize it. So I think I probably do need different drivers, the only question is where do I get them?

Headphones not working

That's my first post here, so hello : )

Yesterday I updated my Player 5.0 Intl to PAC ROM 22.4. and kernel to rumirands. It works really well, except for one, crucial part - the headphones!

When I plug them in, PowerAmp correctly detects them and starts playing. Unfortunalety, there is no sound coming from the headphones. They have TWO rings on the jack.

I have browsed forums here and found SoundAbout app - did not help. Speaker does not work, too.

Would really appreciate help, as otherwise I'll have to go back to 2.3.6 (or some other version where audio works properly...)

hello im running the PACman rom (two versions behind the latest) so the symptoms my device is showing is basically lagginess while playing games and such things i think im suffering a gpu/ram deficiency so im wondering which tweak will help me the most. My choices are:

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Personally I have had pimp my Rom cause some problems.

Right now I use greenify. I find this app to work pretty well and have had no problems with it at all.

You may have to do some test runs on your device to see which I've you like the best but if you are going to user anything other than greenify, I recommend that you make a backup before doing anything due to the fact that it could defiantly cause some boot loops

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
3rd party is when it is something that is made by a group of people outside the original devs. Aka: any app in the play store not made by google. Like for instance, tapatalk is not made by google therefore it is 3rd party software.

On the other hand, google calendar is made by google and android is made by google therefore that is not third party

[Q] /dev/block/stl9 doesn't exists.

Well, I want to experiment some little things about android development to learn by myself step at step. So I'm trying to explore how to make a flashable zip and this stuff of making ROMs. But... I cannot start... I'm in CM10.1 with Koala's Kernel and I can't make the factoryfs.rfs file doing this: dd if=/dev/block/stl9 of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs bs=4096 in Terminal Emulator because /dev/block/stl9 doesn't exists.

Is this due to this ROM is not stock or something like this? Or have I only create this folder or change it by other? I've tryied to find in google and I didn't obtained clear things... Thanks for your help!

Ok to explain you this fast, you can't make a stock flashable odin/heimdall file if you're in a custom rom that's AOSP based period. Also the path you've choosed is wrong (stl9 is for the 4.0, not 5.0). If you want to build some roms like CM or PACman, there's plenty of guides that can help you setup a repo for eventually building your own rom.

I don't think you can. I remember a thread from a while back that said the 4.0 and 5.0 can't be used that way because they both lacked the bluetooth hands free profile that the 3.6 and 4.2 have.

"Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" after restoring a CWM backup

Hi everybody!

I finally rooted and flashed my intl player 5 to get cwm and cm10.1 from iurnait's thread!

But here is my problem:

I flashed the last Linaro version and made a backup of this through cwm.

I went back to his thread and discovered there was a new version of his ROM, so I downloaded it and applied the zip with cwm.

But then I wanted to go back to the previous Linaro version because I find it a bit smoother (it is perhaps psychologic), with my backup. So I rebooted into cwm, and did "backup and restore>restore from internal sdcard", and selected my latest image.

I then let it reboot, but now the same message "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" appears everytime, the status bar and launcher's wallpaper disappeared...

I am using KOala888's KKernel with default settings. Also, I applied this mod to get 30 volume steps for headphones, but it doesn't seem to affect this, as I later flashed the uninstall zip from the mod's thread and the System UI bug is still there.

So, what did I do wrong ?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iurnait:
wipe cache and dalvik, then reflash the rom, gapps, and kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Lomanic:
ultarFr aa

Indeed I could just reflash the Linaro version, but if I did a backup it was in the aim to be able to restore it after... So is there a problem with my backup or my restore, or am I misunderstanding what a (nandroid?) backup is or does?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iurnait:
If you don't wipe data and only wipe cache and dalvik, you won't lose any data and your fc's should be resolved. This is what I have always done
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Lomanic:
Ok, this is what I did, but as expected it overwrote buid.prop (I want my internal storage to remain internal) and framework.jar (for 30 volsteps mod), what I wanted to avoid (that's why applied my nandroid backup at first). So is my nandroid backup just unusable ? If the "System UI bug" is the normal behaviour of a nandroid backup, a nandroid backup is a bit useless don't you think ?:laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Lomanic:
Is the backup and restore functionnality bugged in CWM based recovery v6.0.3.2 on YP-G70 ?

I can't restore another backup I made yesterday, CWM says "can't mount /system!" and when rebooting my device enters a bootloop (infinite bootanimation)...

So, as I asked yesterday, is my nandroid backup bugged, is the CWM backup function bugged, or is the CWM restore function bugged ?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Also, after failing at restoring this backup, I tried what iurnait wrote in his post, and now I am experiencing a bootloop (very long or infinite bootanimation).
