I had this rom before and had Samsung Apps, installed the TW european rom and then changed back to stock rom hhich my retail tablet came with, but now no more Samsung Apps
I can copy one from my SGS2 into /system/app/ but it does notshow in the app list and if i try to install it it givesme an error!
Care to help? 10x
Removed from my stock (unlocked) with the EKG4 update as well....though I didn't use it for any downloads. Not sure but perhaps Samsung is making some changes??
same problem, mine was unlock.
after update became locked and no samsung apps.
anyone?
To start off this post, I am very sorry if this has already been posted/answered on here. I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find it.
Okay, onto the question. I recently installed ROM Manager on my Galaxy Player 5.0 (YP-G70) It has the touch sensitive buttons on the bottom, not a physical button, if that helps clarify which device I have at all. Anyway, when I go into Rom manager to Flash clockwork recovery, It asks me to confirm the phone model. I get a list with these phones (and this is all of them)...
Galaxy Tab - ATT
Samsung Charge
Samsung Epic4G
Samsung Galaxy S 4G
Samsung Galaxy Tab (T-Mobile)
Samsung Galaxy Tab (VZW)
Samsung GalaxyS Captivate
Samsung GalaxyS Fascinate
Samsung GalaxyS Vibrant
Samsung GalaxyS i9000
Samsung Indulge 910
Samsung Indulge 915
Samsung Sidekick 4G
Obviously, Samsung galaxy player is not on this list. I don't know which one to choose. I know I have seen other Galaxy Player 5.0 users (on youtube tutorials etc...) with the same player I have, and I have made sure that Rom Manager is updated in case there were updates including my version, but it turned out that I was already up-to-date.
If you can help me out in any way, thank you.

First off, you have the USA model (with all capacitive [light up] buttons). To my knowledge, there is no support for the Galaxy Player (any model) in the ROM Manager app. I am not sure what YouTube videos you are referring to, and I am equally unsure of what they would have been talking about in those videos. The only way I can think of that you could tweak the device to make ROM Manager compatible is to change the device ID in the build.prop file in system root. And, I am not sure if that is OK to do, or not.
Sorry I could not give you a more definitive answer on that front.
As for CWM recovery, you have to use the software, ODIN to flash a device-compatible kernel which has CWM recovery built into it. There is a kernel (or 2) for the USA Galaxy Player 5.0 that has CWM recovery built in. You have to use ODIN to flash it on your device.
If you don't know anything about this procedure there are lots of good threads in the development section with thorough explanations on ODIN and flashing ROMs and kernels to your device.
Good luck.
Put the player in download mode (back+volume down+power). Download http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840 and start odin, click the pda button and choose the file and connect your phone and press start, flashing the kernel will take approx. 5 seconds and your phone will reboot automatically.

NEVER USE ROM MANAGER! IT WILL BRICK YOU. Ok, now that that's settled, the previous poster is correct, you need Entropy512's kernel, as CWM is part of the kernel for this device. The instructions above will work for the ".tar" file (the oldest release), or you can do it any of the other ways listed in that thread.
Hello there
Before you say, I already searched about this and only found one thread which didn't help me much to be honest. There was a SamsungIME.apk linked in the thread but I am not even sure what that is. I applied the Galaxy SIV MOD by Damdidosch and it is amazing and has the keyboard I am looking for but I faced some problems with it and it kind of slowed down my device so I decided to restore the leaked (untouched) 4.2.1 firmware. I really liked the S4 keyboard, though, with the number pad always visible and the white background and would really like to install it if it's possible.
Does anyone have links for it or know where I can look for it?
Thanks!
Well I tried the SamsungIME.apk and it said "Do you want to install this update to the system application Samsung Keyboard?" and I chose yes but it then said Install failed.
Hello, I want to buy and afterward to root a galaxy s4 zoom cell phone in order to get full acces of all administrative functions, get rid of apps I do not need...
Even through I searched for answers in the www I still have qusetions.
I really would like to use Cyanogenmod. But this is obiously not compartible withe the s4 zoom. So what are my alternatives?
Can I just root my phone and using the normal android software version (jelly bean, which is preinstalled)? Or do I need to get a other one (custom ROM)? Does anyone can give my some recommendations (similar to Cyanogenmod)? Please and Thank you!!
Hi everyone I need help as in the title.I have an S4 I9505 and an S6 Edge 925F. So I want to take a backup of S4 on kies 2.6 (device before september 2013) and can that backup be restored on my S6E but the S6E is now at my cousin in Germany so now I have to take a backup of my S4 and get it back to stock (now its on OmegaRom KK and KToonsez kernel) and in May me and my cousin will replace phones and he will give me the S6E and i give the S4 to him and the problem is:
I dunno what kies uses S6E or SMART SWITCH;
and will the backup from kies be restored on Smart switch if the S6E uses it

the S6E does not work with kies....it only work with smart switch. with the backup...u can only backup your files but dont backup with the system files because the system files for s4 is different from the S6E, so dnt try doing that...
