On my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, I installed the main new CM10 ROM, as recently announced, and although I had some problems, it now works fine. However, as I was trying to transfer a ZIP file that I did not properly transfer the first time, I discovered that the card reader does not seem to be detected at all when I connect it to the tablet. Also, the tablet, which uses the same port seems to be only partially working. For example, the Home and Back keys do not seem to work at all, although the equivalent buttons on the display seem to be OK.
Are there other things I should do once I have the new ROM installed ? I was trying to get the Google Apps ZIP file tr-transferred to the internal /sdcard partition so I can install all those goodies.
Try to ask the developer of the rom, he/she has the answers. Or maybe revert to stock rom if you really need to those functions.

Try NVFlash with CWM
Hello
I have started changing my GTab, which I purchased in May from TigerD.
Here are my specifics:
Model: UPC300-2.2
Android OS Version: 2.2
Tap UI: 1.2-4349
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-000001-q0e0C333-dirty
Build FRS91
I'd just like to drop a note and let people know who are having difficulty installing CWM on their tab.
I could not get it to install. There was an error, which I can't remember what it was; when I attempted to install the software from my external SD Card.
I didn't disable the tab as it would always boot and I was trying both internal and external with no results. (Update was always ignored).
Actually I may have tried installing the internal from the external and got my self into a mess.
Anyways if you have difficulty; just follow this URL and you'll not only get back your original install but also CWM.

Just follow the instructions and you should be okay.Now I'm off to look at new ROMS.
Appreciate the work on this everyone. I wouldn't have purchased this product if this information was not around.

I got my G Tab today....
Prior to its delivery I did lots of reading here to learn about its capabilities and how to do installs etc... Thanks to all of you that are developing ROMs, etc... to help make it better.
For now my main issues are
(1) Wifi dropping
(2) bluetooth clipping
(3) difficulty moving files on to my MicroSD
(4) Force Close Error Message
I installed Clockwork Mod internal (8 I think) and TnT Lite 3.1 and patch 3.1.4 because it seemed like most users on this site said it was the most stable..
My question is, am I missing a patch or should I be using another Rom to get Bluetooth and WiFi to work without issue?
Is there an easy way to see the MicroSD card when I am connected to the G Tab via USB so I can transfer files directly?
Should I install another ROM in order to avoid the "FORCE CLOSE" error message?
Thanks again for all that hard work.
Hi,
This one's a pretty simple question, i was wondering if any of you out there has had success with FPSE running on CM7 for our infuse. After flashing CM7, the emulator won't read the directories properly so i can't navigate to my rom folder and select the ROM. The correct bin file has been identified but no navigation.
I found this odd because it was working just fine on infused 2.3 and also on MIUI which is based off of LB's CM7 port. Perhaps i need to flash a different kernal?
Any insight would be great. I've tried reinstalling, moving the ROMS to the root SDcard folder, to the external SD etc. Not sure why it wouldn't work anymore
Thanks
your internal SD is mounted under /emmc and the external is in /sdcard.
Yes, i made sure the pathing was correct but it still doesn't work. Seemingly, it's only reading the ROMs thats not working. If i hit the ... it brings me to the PSX Home menu that boots just fine, i'm just currently unable to select my games >_<
Ever find a solution to this?
I have the exact same issue after installing CM7. I've pointed the "Bios loading" option to "/mnt/sdcard/roms/ps1/bios.bin," but the same issue arises where when I try to pick a game to play nothing shows up; if I hit the "..." button it loads up the PSX home menu.
Considering there's a working landscape HDMI mirroring in progress, if this is a permanent issue with CM7 then I'm definitely going to have to switch ROMs.
Hey Guys,
I have some sirious issiues with my Samsung Galaxy S 2 and the MIUI v4 on it.
I would like to change the kernel as well as the ROM, which should both work with CWM. However, I cannot put the zip files on the internal sd because I can't handle files in my phone. When I link it to the computer via USB it is found at the Explorer and has got 2 partitions (the external SD as well as the internal phone memory). However, I can't make any changes at the Phone memory any more and I have no idea how to change this.
Further I have got some other issues with the MIUI or even with cyanogenmod7. The Camcorder does not work. Could the Kernel be the crucial point?
And the last problem so far refers to the root permission settings of MIUI v4, which can't be changed (i would need this for the sim-unlock-app).
Can somebody help me?
thx a lot, BB8
Okay...no answers so far... /push
Hello there,
to get the new ROM / Kernel on you Phone, you Could just FTP it over...
Take a look at the Filebrowser(Dateibrowser in German ) that comes with MIUI, there is a FTP tab where you can start a server.
Otherwise you could use swiftp from the market.
Or you could just eject you external-sd and use a card reader to put the files on there.......
I hope this helped a little.
Yes, thx. This helped a lot! I have got now the CheckRevolution ROM on my Phone! Far better
thx again!
Hi everyone
my device: Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 GINGERBREAD Android 2.3.1 or so...
I use super one click 2.3.3 with short fuse to root my device and unroot my device successfully.
When my device is rooted, I found "ROM Manager" by "ClockWork"
This device by default has a half recovery type setup if I hold the "volume up" button and then turn the device on.
It does a partial recovery.
My friend said that using rom manager I can make a full recovery.
Inside rom manager there is a selection to "Flash clockwork Mod Recovery"
When I click this, I see a list of devices, and my device is not in the list
Here is what the list shows:
-Galaxy Tab - ATT
-Samsung Charge
-Samsung Epic4G
-Samsung Galaxy Taab - T - Mobile
-Samsung Galaxy Tab - VZW
-Samsung GalaxyS 4G
-Samsung GalaxySCaptivate
-Samsung GalaxyS Fascinate
-Samsung GalaxyS Vibrant
-Samsung GalaxyS i9000
-Samsung Indulge 910
-Samsung Indulge 915
-Samsung Sidekick 4G
My friend says to select the one that is closes to my device to create an environment to hold the "Complete" backup of my device as it is right now.
Once the environment is created it will make a complete backup of my device, rom, apps, settings, etc...?
I do not understand this, can someone help me out on this part on selecting the correct one that best matches my device?
Or should I just wait and select my device when it shows up, if it ever happens?
**The problems I have are, this:
-My friend tried adb on my device to check it, he says that the boot manager seems to be locked out, and if I ever made a mistake, i can brick my device and should make this full backup first.
-I do not have a full download of the "Factory" ROM/kernal installed on this device from the box. So if I make a mistake or remove my original, I have no way of going back, and the original supposedly has "Proprietary drivers" specific to this device?
Thanks for the help,
this is really confusing to me, and I'd like to have a working Galaxy player 5.0, not an expensive brick...lol
PS: I just happen to come across this buried thread after continuing reading around for the past 4 hours:

Sorry if this post I made is in the wrong spot, I posted in the "Android Software and Hacking General" because the title seems relevant to the topic at question.
I've been looking around and I found one small sentence saying: "Samsung galaxy player 5.0 = Samsung Galaxy S (WiFi)'
I have come across this kernel that is compatible with my galaxy player 5.0 (YP-G70) USA version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840
And this rom for the same device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458325
But I can not continue until I make a complete backup of the entire device, which I seem to keep running into walls with the few methods I come across, each of which I can get to work part way, but the problem is that there seems to be a lack of documentation for some things.
I'm trying to attempt to dump the entire devices memory to a savable archive on my PC, and if this app I found can partly do this, but with the devices internam memory, its a good place for me to try and start. Some posts I read explain how this can't be done, and others say it can be done, but they do not know how, or somewhere tthey saw someone did it once...
I finally posted this in efforts that someone will have an idea, This is how I see the device:
-Its a wifi phone/wifi media player.
-it has internal memory, which can be seen as a USB type storage in a way. This means that USB storage hardware exists.
-if the internal device NAND memory (whether its the same chip, or multiple chips) it can be read, copied, edited, deleted, etc...
if I can insert an option within its recovery "system" that is accesses by vol up and pwr on, to connect ALL storage to the USB, I'm set.
but this seems to be a difficult task at the moment.
What I'm trying to get a copy of, from this device:
-Android ROM.
-Linux Kernel.
-Boot ROM.
I can seem to access the Android ROM files and copy them through forcing a kind of SSH, but it only seems to work then the device is powered on in a usable state.
The linux kernel, I honestly have no clue of where and what this is.
The boot ROM, seems locked out to me, I tried some software I came across to tray and control it throughh the computer, but it was not properly responsive, it just did its own thing, seems locked out. if I knew where the program sends the commands to after passing through the USB, I could attempt a read, then try to dump to a usable file later. but I havent the slightest idea on how to de-commpile this thing.
Someone please tell me I'm crazy... O_O
I'm overly paranoid about loosing the software that came on this device before I flash the custom kernel and android ROM I found (That if I go forwards, I might not be able to go back if something goes wrong or if I dislike what I just did)...
