Flash CM10.1 on rooted, otherwise stock YP-G70?

I recently had to send in my SIII to be refurbished and I'd like to be able to access some of the features from JB that I really liked. I have an SGP 5.0 that I just rooted using Super One Click, and I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to flashing ROMs. Normally, I'd search around to find a tutorial, but I can't seem to find one. Can someone walk me through flashing CM 10.1 on my SGP 5.0?

I'm running GB 2.3.5 with kernel version 2.6.35.7-G70UEKI8-CL566269 se.infra@SEP-49 #2

Also, I'm not 100% sure if my device is the international version or the USA version, I just know that it has a capacitive home button in place of a physical home button.

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

I just found a tutorial on flashing CM10 on to an SGP 4.0. Should I follow these instructions?

Are you using any sort of process killer?

Ppl say you shouldn't use one because it defeats the purpose of a Linux kernel, but, if you've run Android long enough, you know that the processes don't allocate memory correctly all the time. If I weren't running a process killer, it would take me 4 reboots to write this.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] TheKryptonite:
Nope, not at all. Although I am running Du Battery.

And strangely, when it stops freezing up, it says that certain apps aren't responding.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] HOG1csmith:
I would install a process monitor/killer and see if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Those instructions should suffice
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mevordel:
There's enough difference that no, you shouldn't. It is, in fact, easier on the 5.0. Just download cm-10.1 and gapps to your player, flash Entropy's Daily Driver kernel with Odin/heimdall/dd, and then install the zips in cwm. You'll probably want to do a factory reset.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] kidwicked360:
Which version/device of CM-10.1 should I download? There are so many and none of them are the SGP 5.0. Should I download it from an external source, or should I download it for an equivalent device? Also, is there a specific version of GApps I would need?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mevordel:
Anything with YP-G70 in the title is for the 5.0, and anything else will not work. You're looking for a thread started by iurnait. The normal gapps work.

I own the Samsung Galaxy Player YP-GI1 European/International version, which I have successfully rooted and put CWM onto it. The only issue I have is the appearance of the yellow triangle, which I have previously seen on my Galaxy Note N7000, after rooting it. I tried TriangleAway to reset the binary counter. and it says it has reset the counter; but the triangle is still there. Does anyone know how to get rid of the triangle on this device, please?

Also I have looked at the "all roms in one place" thread, but I can't work out which roms work on my device, as they are mixed up. Is there a way to narrow down the rom list to find roms that work specifically on my device? I would be grateful for any help anyone can give me on any of these issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
First of all, yellow triangle is download mode. Nothing wrong with the triangle. It's supposed to be there.

Second is that the index of tons seems pretty damn organized to me. Most if not all people can figure it out. Look at the categories and that'll tell you
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ursulavasey:
I'm not referring to going into download mode, I'm referring to the triangle that appears when I boot up the player. I have seen the same triangle on my Galaxy Note N7000, which occurred when the binary count was raised. I used triangleaway to remove it on my Note, but I can't remove it on my player.

As for the rom list, I don't mean the general list, sorted by device brand names etc, I mean that the roms in the Galaxy player thread aren't organised. There should be separate lists for each model version number, according to whether the rom is for the 3.6, the 4.0 or the 5.0, and whether it works on the US or international version of the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
Ah ok. i have had my player for while and have not ever had that happen so unfortunately i dont know how to remove it.

as for the list you are talking about, are you referring to this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1720457
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ursulavasey:
Yes, that is the list I was talking about. The triangle appears when I switch on the device, underneath the device name. My device is rooted, with cwm on it, but no custom rom. The triangle appeared after the root process was done.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
what did you use to root it?

also that list, are you saying thats not organized enough??
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ursulavasey:
I used the information at the thread below, which linked me to the XDA pages:

http://theunlockr.com/2013/06/22/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-player-4-2/

As for the list of roms, the reason I think they are not organised is that they are not sorted into which rom works for each version of the player. There are several versions of the SGP and some roms only work on certain versions. My player is the YP-GI1 international version,running Gingerbread 2.3.6, but some roms on that page are for later versions, both US and international models. How do I tell which particular rom works on which particular device, without having to open the rom information page each time?

I have a Note N7000 phone, but I would not put a Note N7100 or N7105 rom on it, as that is a different model. So there needs to be some separation done, in terms of which rom works on which device.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iurnait:
If you look in post 2 of the all in one thread that [MENTION=4757337]goldflame09[/MENTION] posted, you would see that the roms are organized into different categories for the 4.0, 5.0, 3.6, and 4.2 players. Zaclimon has also included the thread titles with the links, and the titles should also tell you which device the rom is for.

I have a YP-G70, with this rom, my OS computer is win7.

Since I tried USB debugging on it, this device is not recognized anymore by Windows, and I encounter a damn Error 10 if I go to the Devices manager (under the Windows Control Panel) and right click on the faulty device.:eek:

So I now have the same problem you have!:victory:

What I tried:

In Devices Manager, right-click on the faulty USB mass storage device and select Update driver...

In Devices Manager, right-click on the faulty USB mass storage device but select Uninstall, then unplug/plug the YP-G70, exact same error

Same as above, except I did not unplug/plug my YP-G70 but right-clicked on any of the device and selected Scan for hardware changes

In fact, here is what I tried

This did not help

Tried using the hdwwiz utility and selected some android related driver, some Samsung related driver (with ADB in it). None of them worked

Same as above, while disabling the faulty device driver in Devices Manager

All of this was tried both with USB debugging checked or unchecked

The solution would be, in Devices Manager, to right click on the faulty USB mass storage device, select Update driver..., Browse my computer for driver software, and then select the right drivers.

But the problem is, where are the right drivers?

Could someone with a functionnal mass storage on his YP-G70 on android 4.2+ please tell us under which driver/device it appears in the Windows Devices Manager? Could you please tell us the details of the driver used (right-click on the device, Properties, Driver tab, Driver details) too?

Questions about the Player 4.0 (YP-G1) JB ROM

So, I have a couple of problems with my 4.0 running the JB 4.1.2 ROM.

First, when I plug into my PC, it won't mount, and I cant access it through adb. The device does go into debugging mode when I plug it in, but the computer doesn't see it. I know there is a usb tethering issue with this ROM, so if this is what's meant by USB tethering (I thought it was something else) then that's fine, and I'll have to deal with it.

Second, the audio through the headphones is really messed up. When playing any kind of music, the instruments are normal volume and maybe a bit bass-y and the vocals are very quiet and a bit tinny. When playing just voice (like a podcast) its also very quiet and I have to turn the volume all the way up to get a reasonable sound. I've tried practically every setting in the DSP Manager, but nothing really has much significant effect.

Hey all, looking for some root help....

After selling a few items on eBay, I decided that a completely impulsive way of spending my profits was to pick up a Galaxy Player 5.8. I am an avid collector of any gadget, especially the rare or unique type items. Since this device most likely won't see sunlight in the US, (I picked up one from S. Korea.) I thought it would make a nice addition the stable of android devices.

At any rate, I was wondering if there was a way to get it rooted? I am not looking to install new ROMs on this one, but a fee tweaks here and there never hurt anyone. :)
