[Solved]Blocked for the next steps to install Cyanogenmod 11 (YP-G1 INTL) by zaclimon - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Hello all,
Just to announce I RTFM but my brain is maybe broken and I'm a little scared, so i'd rather like to ask before screaming like a baby
So my case:
My device: GP 4.0 YP-G1 Europe(INTL) stock ROM 2.3.6 and kernel stock 2.6.35.7-etc
I was lurking the developement on the galaxy player for 2 years and i decided to install the custom rom Cyanogen mod by Zaclimon.
So today, I read a lot, follow the steps for the specific rom:
-installed android-sdk, adb, rooted to save my efs(~6.25Mo) and when i was on the recovery(the basic one i guess) to flash the .zip, it screens "E:Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device)
Installation aborted."
But i have > 5 GB space (so it's not the problem)
So i tried to find a solution with Odin/Heimdall but i can't put on the pda field the zip rom 'cause zip it's not the good extension. I tried to find a solution to have a custom recovery, but i'm not sure if it's the good idea, because in the tutorial by Zaclimon, it's written "from stock do 1,2,3 bla bla"
So now I'm blocked and i would like to flash this device to thanks your works and use it as it should be from the beginning
So it would be nice if someone could help me ^^
PS: Sorry for my english

Did you flashed a custom kernel (terrasilent, klin) prior flashing the rom? You need to have CWM installed on the device so you can install CM11.

here you can find a list of kernels and roms and stuff. look for the kernel that is compatible with your device and make sure it has clockworkmod. then you can flash that with odin. then when your boot into recovery it will be clockworkmod recovery :good:

@zaclimon and Austin68: Thank you for your fast responses. And nop, i didn't install a custom kernel, because i thought that stock = base device with no change or only root, but yeah i will find infos & install a kernel, moreover all infos are recent ? Don't wanna brick it with oldies tutos
Back in few hours, going to flash it after the work, see you and thank's again :good:

I can cry now :crying:
My device seems to be bricked, I know that it can be repaired but more time wasted for you and me
So my steps to fuc* the process:
-I chose the terrasilent 1.3-5 kernel, flash it with Odin with Auto-Reboot and F. Reset time.
So the device worked good, booted to recovery try to find the cyanogenmod 11 zip in the sdcard, but the file recovery doesn't show me anything unless the external sdcard, so i rebooted 2-3 times, but always the same.
-So my brillant idea ... was to re-flash it with the re-partition box checked this time and BOOOM, FAIL + icon like a phone --- /!\ ---- PC on the GP
So please, now you can help the 100% broken brain.
Can't wait for your responses and help
PS: I have my efs.rfs

Seems like you bricked your player but their is no need to fear. Go to the Samsung thread where all ROMs mods and kernels are located and look for rjs kernel 14 Odin. Then download and go to Odin, then where it Say's PDA put that kernel there and flash and you should be in cwm 5.0.2.7 recovery. I bricked my galaxy player about 3 times so this should work. Also if you have a nandroid backup you can restore that only if its gingerbread.

If you used re-partition, you will most likely need to flash the full recovery stock rom for the 4.0 Intl models here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531850
When you'll flash it, you can then re-partition and it should return to normal. This mode you have is a sort of "forced" download mode. Don't worry about flashing stuff into it with Odin.

Don't make him flash anything that isn't made for his device. He has a YP-G1 which is a galaxy player 4.0 whereas rj's kernel is made for the galaxy player 5.0.

Oops I forgot rjs kernel was for 5.0 sorry man

@troy5890: No problem
@zaclimon: Thanks a lot, it works
Device with a 2.3.6 rooted, so later I will have to know where is my error to not reproduce it (do i have to enable re-partition when flashing with the terrasilent kernel or not) and if it was good or not the first time, why i didn't see in the recovery file manager the zip to install the ROM
But now, going to bed (1:30 AM). See you later and thanks again

1. Good to see that it is working again.
2. You have to NOT check the re-partition case when you flash terrasilent.
3. Did the cm zip was in the internal storage? The /sdcard partition is often (if not always) recognized as the internal storage and not the actual SD card storage.
Also @troy5890 don't worry about it, you wanted to help so it's already better than some so would just skip that one.

I don't have any SD external card, but I knew that i have to set the zip in the "basic device storage".
To recall the process after my work:
1-flash the rooted stock rom 2.3.6 installed with terrasilent 1.3.5 with Odin with the re-partition UN-checked(like yesterday)
2-copy past the zip cyanogen mod 11 by zaclimon with my usb-PC connexion on the root of the storage card.
3-boot in to the CWM recovery
4-go to the "choose zip from sdcard’" line and choose the zip.
The step 4 was my problem yesterday(didn't see any files)
So do i need between the step like the 1st one and the second to wipe data/cache/Dalvik or it was only a bug yesterday ???
Thanks you for reading and help me

It's not normal that you can't see any file when you go into flash zip from sdcard then choose zip from sdcard. Hmm what does it shows when you press it? Maybe with a picture it could be more representative.

It was my yesterday problem for my first try before the GP semi-brick.
Back in 6/7 hours to my home to re-try it and to give you feedbacks.
See you soon

Okaaaaaaaaaaaay, flash it right now
I'm on your ROM zaclimon, so happy to test and play with it.
Thank you really for your big works (because i follow your work on the GP for 2 years and i saw what the community and you have done)
