Hi guys

I went through all 10 pages of the thread, and still have a newbie question...

Apparently, there are three versions of this device floating around and I would hate to brick mine by flashing a wrong ROM (got scared by this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445840).

I have the YP-G70 which is so-called "international" one, with a "mechanical home button". Would this ROM be OK for it?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
Yes, the international version is supported.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mmmm-):
if you're overclocking it's probably because you've not got your voltages set up correctly.

If you're not overclocking... who knows... could be a rogue app...

Either way you'll have to do some troubleshooting to isolate the problem.

Hi bro, I'm now using your Carbon rom build on 31Jul, I miss system app remover from Beanstalk (the last I used is updated on 04Jun), can you add it in your next build. Don't know how DSP manger always show "Unfortunately, DSP Manager has stopped" when I run Google music player", now I use Viper4android FX instead, it still work and feel the improvement in sound quality. But DSP Manager is kind of deeply integrated in rom, so it show that annoying notice all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
No, sorry I'm not going to add that. Removing a system app is just the simple matter of deleting it. If DSP Manager is crashing you need to do a clean install as per the instructions. I never had any problems with DSP Manager... :cyclops:

Well done for sorting out the crt animation and the lock screen - they are working beatifully now, thanks..

How can you tell the magnet sensors are doing something? Using 'GPS Status' I get no reading at all on the compass, or even the pitch/roll readings, although the accelerometer is ok - but I think that worked anyway. I'll have to have a look at my backup to compare...

It all seems more stable and smoother too... but maybe that's just the excitement of having an update!! :D

Hi guys, sorry for the question, but i've searched the threads and even posted a question on the Q&A but no answer so far...

I have an European Galaxy Player 5.0, with number YP-G70EB and 16GB of storage, and from what i can see on the Rom threads, all Roms are destined for the more popular 8GB version... Is this Rom (or any other) just as compatible with my version as it is with the 8GB, will it "steal" half of my storage capacity, or will it just brick my device?

Thank you in advance..

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Lomanic:
Thank you [MENTION=4400604]Meticulus[/MENTION] for this awesome ROM, I came from CM 10.1, after flashing CM 10.2, the flashing process was clearly described on your blog and everything was successful. I found your ASCII art fun by the way !

ROM is fast, customization looks endless, lock screen and crt-off effect are indeed smoother as ever.

But I'm a bit disappointed by the apps included in the ROM : I could not find any music player (no Apollo), nor calendar app. I thought the last one was opensource and included in AOSP. I flashed the pico modular gapps because I did not wanted all the bells and whistles of Google + & co, just the Play Store. So, it's OK, I will just have to try another apps on the Google Play Store.

Also, I can confirm that FM radio works great with Spirit FM Free and these settings : Band -> World 200 KHz ; Audio -> Method -> Galaxy SL/i9003. This is a feature I wanted for a long time and I really appreciate your huge work [MENTION=4400604]Meticulus[/MENTION] ! Only problem is I don't have RDS info while listening, is our player's hardware compatible ?

I am really thinking of buying Spirit1 or Spirit2 (this would be my first app purchase ever), is Spirit2 compatible with our player ?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
Hmm... Calendar app should be there. I have it...[emoji6]

I can include Apollo if people want... There are so many good music players in the play store though...

RDS is digital meta data stuff right? Song titles and station Id...? Have to double check but don't think so...

Glad you like it...?

EDIT: Don't know about Spirit2. I'm contemplating writing a radio app for venturi myself but probably not soon...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Lomanic:
Thank you for your quick answer.

I don't think you should bother yourself including Apollo, it can be easily downloaded here and this is not included by stock Carbon ROMs. There are nice alternatives on the Store indeed.

Yes, RDS (for Radio Data System) and RT (Radio Text) are the texts displayed on your compatible radio receivers, it is mainly used for displaying station and song name. I remember on stock Android 2.3 with stock FM app we did not have it, but I could think this was a software issue. Nevertheless, reading the Wikipedia article shows me that the FM chip needs to listen to a subcarrier at 57KHz, which would not be physically possible with our chip (interesting schema). Also, if not hardware limited, I'm afraid we are perhaps highly dependent of binary blobs in the Broadcom BCM4329 chip driver, which is probably not opensource. Perhaps looking around the bcmon initiative would be interesting, I really don't know.

A dedicated FM radio app would be awesome (with a better UI than Spirit Free), but don't force you to do it, since there is the Spirit FM alternative that works quite well.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
Just FYI, our radio chip is not Broadcom. It's Silicon Labs si4709 (http://www.silabs.com/products/audio/fmreceivers/pages/si470809.aspx).

I took a long look at this driver, just trying to learn and I thought It would be a good learning project to build a simple radio app for it. It as a simplistic driver interface, and does? appear to support RDS. Perhaps Spirit Free doesn't support RDS?:

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Spirit do have rds support and works just fine with the si4709. It's only that, as you said, spirit free doesn't feature RDS.

Carbon updates only...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] LinuxHippy:
Launcher makes a big difference

A couple days ago I installed the Meticulus Carbon ROM rom 20141001 and love the features in this ROM. This is my first KitKat ROM on the SGP5 and at first I was disappointed by it's unresponsiveness and wifi drops. I read through this thread and saw that it was recommended to use the Launcher3 rather than the Google Now home launcher. That made a big difference in how snappy this ROM is compared to the GingerBread ROMS I tried. After a day I have not seen any wifi troubles either. The camera works in this ROM and the BT seems ok but I haven't tried to pair anything except a phone and that worked.

The only thing I cannot set right is CPU overclocking. It's stable at 1000 MHz but when I ramp it up to 1200, 1440, or 1600 it freezes and then reboots. It's fine at 1000 MHz and I guess I'll stay there. I never overclocked this myself in the GB ROMS I tried and I think it was at the safe 1000 MHz.

Oh, the only thing that seems to be missing (besides a good mp3 player which I installed via an app) is a cut & paste utility but I'm sure I could find an app for that. Any recommendations?

Marty
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
I personally use Nova Launcher, the only reason I still include Launcher3 is for people who like using themes. Google Now Launcher comes from GApps.

Overclocking is one of those things where everyone's mileage may vary. Definitely no guarantees.

Cut, copy and paste, are baked into Android and I've never heard of a "cut & paste" utility. Perhaps, I'm missing something or maybe it's because you're new to KitKat, but I just long press on text/input box and cc&p appears...
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] LinuxHippy:
Copy & paste does work without an app by default in this carbon ROM. It does work differently than what I was used to in GB...long press and then select your text and then at the top of the screen is a copy icon (aong with cut) and then go to another app (like the memo app which I installed) and long press and pick paste.

I'll try that nova launcher now. Thanks Meticulus for helping me back in January with the partitions on the SGP5! That's why I wanted to try your ROM. If you forgot, here's the thread:

almost SWYPE keyboard included

I thought I'd also comment on the nice keyboard that's included. It's like SWYPE only a bit easier at times with the double characters (no need to loop). The accuracy has to be right on, though. If you don't SWYPE the exact characters then you get a word you don't want. I'm not sure how to edit words besides delete and start over. Sometimes I get a menu of available words if I tap on the word, but that doesn't always work right and I get a word I don't want and then have to delete and start over. Patience grasshopper :)

It should learn my most popular words the more I use it and then less deleting...I think.

I recently put carbon on sgp5 and set OC to max 1200 w/ondemand but had random reboots. So set ondemand back to interactive but still reboots, then just put back to 1000. But reading thru this thread saw others had some success so recently set both min&max to 1200 & left default interactive and have so far gone 3 days :) with maybe only one browser FC but no reboot yet. Not sure if browser FC is related to OC - instead it might be from too little ram avail at times - whenever I check, avail ram is between 100-150M max.

Am also on smart launcher (SL) to cover disappearing home screen icons for sdcard installed apps & running greenify to keep ram avail as low ram may be culprit for random lags and slowdowns. I'm liking the extra options in carbon so sticking with it while try to resolve the lags and reboots/FC. SL could poss be culprit too, not sure yet as it's supposed to be fast.

On OC, is it not advisable to keep both min&max at 1200? If its ok, I might even try bump it up to 1600 but not sure yet because the default is 1000 on the max only & not the min.

On apps2sd, I think carbon supports this either by setting or it's on by default but having trouble finding this. In cm11, there's a setting under storage but not found here. Under apps, all my apps installed on internal but it reports 1.5G vs the external sdcard at 32G so my guess it's not on by default. This might help the lost icons & can retry launcher3 again.

Touchscreen disabling while sleeping

Having the touchscreen settings work on the black sleep screen makes carrying the player in my pocket difficult because I inadvertently turn it on when carrying it. In the stock ROM I could even clean the screen while it was sleeping without turning it on by mistake. Granted the stock ROM didn't have all the features that this Carbon ROM has, but is there any way to disable the touchscreen settings while it's sleeping? It seems like that is the default behavior that was built into this player by Samsung.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] :
I really don't understand what you are trying to say... If you want to disable dt2w and s2w there is an option Settings->Extra's. But It's off by default so I would assume that people know that?

dt2w and s2w are enabled by default in charging mode but I doubt that you'd be carrying it around in your pocket while charging?:confused:

My implementation is a little non-standard and I wrote the enable/disable myself. I'd be surprised if an external app could enable/disable it. ;)

You're right Meticulus, I had double tap 2 wake checked (that's a cool feature, BTW). When it's unchecked along with sweep2wake then it does behave like a stock ROM. Thanks for the help-I created my own problem :)
